The Young Emperor and the Fearless

The sun is setting, and it is dusk.Above the clouds and sky, the sunset glow is like a brocade, dyeing everything into a bright red.

He Li and his party met at the post station, and while having dinner, Su Yu explained in detail what he had heard.

After hearing this, He Li was speechless for a long time.

Unexpectedly, the situation of the Ruan family was so complicated. Ruan Chunyun was not the biological daughter of the Ruan family's parents, and maybe they had no affection for each other, so they just left, and the Ruan family's parents ran away with money.Mrs. Ruan might have already secretly packed her clothes under the guise of pouring water.

Speaking of which, at the beginning, the grief-stricken appearance of the Ruan family's parents was all played out for them.

He Li couldn't understand a little bit: "They just died and adopted a girl, why did they have to leave?"

When Ju Xie asked Father Ruan about this question, He Li was too shocked and forgot to ask it. Now that he thinks about it, he is very puzzled.

Su Yu speculated: "Perhaps it is because Ruan Chunyun's death will cause public anger, and they can't hide their money-making."

He Li nodded his head in agreement, and after a while, said angrily: "There is no good person in the Ruan family."

But thinking about it from the beginning, one or two of the people I met in Moshan Village were like that, greedy, sinister, and bullying... It seems that the 'evil' in human nature is fully displayed in this small village.

If you want to explain, it may be that birds of a feather flock together, or the soil and water in this area are unclean, which has brought up such a few people.

He Li asked again: "Why did Zhao Dong carry away Ruan Chunyun's body? Could there be some conspiracy behind it?"

Seeing that Su Yu took a sip of the soup, Seventeen said before he could answer, "Zhao Dong has an affair with Ruan Chunyun. Maybe he has some feelings for Ruan Chunyun, so he wants to bury him personally."

But Ju Xie said: "I heard those people say that Zhao Dong is a man with volatile moods and a vicious way of dealing with things. He doesn't seem like a person who is emotional. I think He Li is right. There must be some kind of conspiracy behind this."

He Li said: "As soon as Ruan Chunyun died, Zhao Dong's people came. They felt that they knew that Ruan Chunyun would die, and they made preparations in advance. Then Ruan Chunyun's death may not be as simple as hanging himself."

In the afternoon, Heli and Su Yu both found out a name-Zhao Dong.He seems to have countless minions, no matter what he wants to intervene, others are afraid of him and obey his words, he is like the local emperor in this Moshan village, and he is arrogant and unreasonable.

These words are not casual, Zhao Dong can indeed do such a thing.Therefore, those who have interacted with him dare not speak nonsense.

Su Yu swallowed the soup in his mouth, and asked another question: "Is Zhao Dong's purpose of making people pretend to be beggars, as Qian Si said, to wait for an opportunity to poison the two people in Fuyuan Store?"

Regarding the whole story of this paragraph, I have to combine the statements of Qian Si and Na Roumo to sort out one or two.

Qian Si pointed out that Zhao Dong instructed him and Rou Mole to pretend to be beggars. He looked for opportunities to attract Sun Bian's attention, and other people did it.The poison was caused by the man with the mole, and he heard it with his own ears in the beggar's broken house.

Zhao Dong was very smart, when assigning them tasks, he didn't tell them the purpose, but just told them how to do it privately, so they didn't know each other's actions.

Qian Si's task was to attract Sun Bian's attention. While he was pestering Sun Bian, other people were also completing their own tasks. How they did it, Qian Si could only guess wildly.He must have been poisoned, and he had nothing to do. When he was staying in the dilapidated house, the man with the mole inadvertently slipped his mouth.

However, the man with the mole whose hands and feet were removed denied it categorically, saying that he had never said so.His task is to pay attention to every move of the two in Fuyuandian and report to Zhao Dong at any time.

The two argued, and both said that the other was lying.

The other two people present also said that they had never poisoned anyone.

What is Zhao Dong's purpose, based on what happened later, can also be guessed.

On the day when Heli arrived in Moshan Village, Qian Si entangled with Sun Bian according to Zhao Dong's instructions. At the same time, other people took advantage of others' surprise and poisoned them.Sun Bian died that day, and the shopkeeper died the next day.

After the task was completed, they returned to their original bodies, which also explained why all the beggars here disappeared the next day.

However, Sun Bian did not die from poisonous hair, but was cut off by a thin thread.

Could this be the task of others among them?

**

After seventeen meals, he was the first to put down his chopsticks and said, "Although I haven't met Zhao Dong, the person Qian Si and the others are talking about is a man who likes to make tricks and tricks. It can't be just for fun that he spends so much time trying to make people pretend to be beggars." , I think the two people in Fuyuan Store died because of him."

He Li Gu was talking, without taking a few bites of the food, and asked: "Since Zhao Dong is covering the sky with one hand here, why do he still try to use dark methods to kill people?"

Ju Xie said: "You don't have to speculate like this, just ask yourself."

But this person is cunning and may not tell the truth.Perhaps they can only be forced to question them like they dealt with those people with moles.

He Li suddenly had a flash of inspiration, blinked at Ju Xie, and stared straight at him without opening his mouth.

Ju Xie held the vegetables calmly, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Just say what you want."

He Li took a piece of meat to Juxie's bowl, and said courteously, "You can identify the poison that the shopkeeper has been poisoned at a glance, and you always have soft tendons on your body, so it must be quite powerful. I don't know if you can tell the truth without any resistance." That kind of medicine?"

"..." Ju Xie curled her lips into a smile, her eyes reflected the brilliant colors of the sunset, which was uncharacteristically gentle, and he said, "If there is such a miracle medicine, I would like to study it."

Feeling slightly disappointed, Heli sighed deeply.

Zhao Dong seems to be the mastermind behind the scenes. He can solve all the doubts about the murder case, but this person is definitely not easy to deal with.

He Li poked the rice in the bowl, thinking in his mind, if the two people in Fuyuan store were killed by Zhao Dong, the evidence is solid, and he cannot escape the death penalty, but unless he himself admits it, the evidence is not easy to find, Moreover, Qian Si and the man with the mole disagreed with each other, and the testimony of witnesses cannot be counted. How can we get Zhao Dong to confess honestly...

Forget it, as Ju Xie said, after thinking so much, it's better to ask someone directly.As for other concerns, we will see the situation later.

At the end of the dinner, the sky gradually darkened, the sunset glow had all dissipated, the willows were on the moon, and the sky was sparse with a few stars.

He Li had almost finished eating, so he put down his bowl and chopsticks and walked out of the post station.

Su Yu hurriedly said: "Mr. Li, it's getting dark today, let's talk about finding Zhao Dong tomorrow."

He Li said: "No, I'm going now."

All kinds of questions were running around in his mind, and if he didn't solve them, he might not even be able to sleep well.

When it was dark, it was difficult to see the road clearly, and it was inconvenient to do things. Su Yu wanted to persuade him again, and said, "Mr. Li..."

He Li interrupted: "Su Yu, if you don't go, stay."

Su Yu: "..."

Can't, can only follow.

Seventeen held an oil lamp to lead the way ahead. They had already inquired about the Zhao family's location, and they didn't bother much in the past.

As they walked, He Li remembered something that was deeply in his heart, and asked, "Is what you told Father Ruan true? Did you kill that family of five?"

Ju Xie's figure was firmly covered by the night, except for the slight heat when approaching, she could hardly feel the presence of people.Ju Xie said in a deep voice: "Actually, there is a crueler side to that story, do you want to hear it?"

Heli couldn't imagine the extent of 'cruelty', so he nodded.

Ju Xie said: "The family of five lives in the barren mountains and wild mountains. There is no shop in the front and back, and they are the only one around. Wild animals often appear nearby, so occasionally hunters pass by. Every time the family uses children to deceive hunters Entering the house is not for property, but for a full meal. After killing people, they take their bones and flesh, make soup and cook them, and put them on a table full..."

He Li said with a pale face, "Are they cannibals?"

The meaning in the words is obvious, it is indeed cannibalism.

Ju Xie continued: "They haven't eaten meat for several months, and they haven't had a full meal. They eat with joy. But after eating this meat, there is not much left, and they will starve again, waiting for an unknown time. The hunter who appeared passed by."

He Li said, "Why don't they go hunting, or grow some wild vegetables?"

Everything else is good, why do you have to eat people.

Ju Xie said: "They say that if you become addicted to eating human meat, you can't stop eating it. They will feel that there is nothing more delicious than this in the world. No matter how much you eat, it will be tasteless. It is not as exciting as human meat."

He Li was speechless, and after a while of silence, he said: "What you said is not true, it is impossible for there to be such a perverted person in the world."

Ju Xie said indifferently: "Under the world, there are no wonders."

"..." He Li said, "Then you will kill them?"

He didn't know if it was He Li's illusion, but he felt that Ju Xie's voice softened a bit, with a slight lament: "Under a green mountain, there was a young lady who just got married sitting outside the shabby hut all day long, washing her face with tears. Someone came up to ask why she was crying. She said that her young husband had gone hunting and hadn't returned for ten days. The little lady was kind-hearted, and she didn't have much food at home, so she was willing to entertain people for dinner. Seeing that people's clothes and shoes were in tatters, Take out her husband's clothes and give them away."

Ju Xie paused, and said again: "Her husband was victimized by that family, and there is no body left. The little lady waited for a lifetime, but she will not be able to wait for someone to go back."
