Scratching the back of his neck in his right ear, he muttered, "My girl often says that if you know too many people, you will die, my lord, have you inadvertently disturbed this pool of muddy water, but you haven't noticed it yet?"
” Cheng Muyou's face changed suddenly, his lips trembled a few times, and he said softly, "I was careless, when the people from the county government came to the inn today, I told them about Liu Chen and the two of them joining the army, just to remind them to strengthen their precautions, I didn't think that such a thing would happen tonight." ” Xu Ziming was also shocked, his eyes widened, "So adults suspect that the person who used the evil art is in the Yazhong of Liaoyang County?"
” Cheng Muyou nodded lightly, "That person knows that I have guessed the reason for the murderer's killing, so he wants to kill me, he must be ambushed near the inn, followed us all the way to the Hong family, knowing that we have to wait for the rabbit, so he pretended to let the clay man attack Hong Dachuan, and designed to lure me out. ” Xu Ziming slapped his palms heavily, "This person is so ruthless, he wants to cut down all the people who know his secrets, but there are a lot of officials who came to the inn to search today, plus Qu Zhengkun, it is really impossible to tell who is the real murderer behind the scenes." ” Cheng Muyou lowered his eyebrows and pondered, "Not only so many people, everyone in the Liaoyang County Ya is suspicious, after they return to the house, they will definitely tell the matter, and spread it to the hundreds, I am afraid that now in the Liaoyang County Ya, everyone knows that this case is closely related to the battle thirty years ago." ” The right ear saw that the two of them were talking endlessly, and they were already impatient on the side, so they came to the two of them, "It doesn't matter who that person is, we just run to the county office and ask him one by one, and see who is suspicious, take him out and torture him. ” "No."
Xu Ziming blurted out these two words, and when he saw Cheng Muyou and his right ear looking at him, he laughed embarrassedly twice, "My lord, I mean it's not the time yet, after all, the yamen is the territory of the government, and if we rush in, we may be charged with rebellion."
It's better to wait for Lord Liu to come, and then go to Liaoyang County to arrest people. ” Cheng Muyou stared at Xu Ziming's eyes for a long time, and finally, turned his head to look at his right ear, "What Brother Xu said is not unreasonable, now we must not act recklessly, we should wait for Lord Liu to come before making the next step." ” The right ear shrugged his shoulder, and the eye in the middle of his forehead opened again, passing over Xu Ziming's face, and he covered his mouth and nodded with a smile, "The girl asked me to help the adult, I obey the adult in everything, and what you say is naturally what it is." ” As soon as he said this, Jiang Xixi's voice suddenly came from not far ahead, "My lord, it's not good, Hong Dachuan and him" Several people hurried back to Hong's house, and walked to the backyard under the leadership of Jiang Xixi, they saw Hong Dachuan lying on his back on the ground, his mouth wide open, his tongue hanging softly at the corner of his mouth, his eyes bulging, his hands tightly pinching his neck, and his face was full of horror.
Cheng Muyou grabbed the arm of his right ear, "Quick, use the rune paper, quickly use the rune paper to save him." ” The right ear stood still, but his eyes slowly drooped, "My lord, his soul has long been out of his body, let alone me, even if the girl comes, there is nothing he can do." ” Jiang Xixi heard him say this, and stomped his feet on the ground, "It's all my fault, I was completely stunned when I saw that clay figure get into his mouth, and when I reacted, that thing had already crawled into his throat, if I hadn't been one step late, maybe he wouldn't have died."
As she spoke, she burst into tears, but then she wiped away her tears, clenched her hands into fists, and said with hatred in her mouth, "What kind of person is it that kills people in such a vicious way, and kills one after another." ” Cheng Muyou walked to Hong Dachuan's body, squatted down and closed his eyelids, he turned to look at Jiang Xixi, "You just reacted immediately, and the clay man will not leave a way for Hong Dachuan to live, so don't blame yourself now, if you want to avenge him, tomorrow we will go to Liaoyang County together to find the real murderer who manipulated the clay man and bring him to justice." ” Hearing him say this, Xu Ziming was shocked, "My lord, didn't you just say that you have to wait for Lord Liu to come and then go to the yamen?"
” Cheng Muyou shook his head thoughtfully, "I can't drag it out any longer, seeing these veterans being killed by the mud people one after another, I always feel that there is a bigger conspiracy hidden behind these murders, if I delay time any longer, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable." ” "But my lord, are you really not afraid of being charged with rebellion?
After all, it is the Liaoyang County Ya, and you are still a civilian. ” Cheng Muyou smiled faintly, and instantly calculated in his heart, "Rebellion?
The government is a place for the people to complain, and if we go to the government to file a complaint, how can we be accused of rebellion. ” Before dawn, Qu Zhengkun was woken up by the sound of the drums, the drums were bursting, like thunder, and there were also people's cries in the middle, which sounded very miserable.
Qiao Yun sat up and spat on the ground impatiently, "It's endless, it's either this or that all day long, since I married my master, I haven't slept a few peaceful nights, it's really annoying." ” Qu Zhengkun also snorted a few times, startled from his dream, he asked outside the door in a daze, "What's the matter, smashing the drum so early in the morning?"
Was there a war or did the court give some instructions?
” The official guarding outside the door replied in a low voice, "My lord, no, it is the relatives of the Liu family, the Huang family and the Hong family, they saw that the case had not been solved for many days, and they were anxious, so they came to the yamen, saying that they wanted the lord to give an explanation, otherwise, they would stay here and not go back." ” Qu Zhengkun got up from the bed angrily, "These pickled talents, I have been working hard for their affairs all day long, they seem to be blind, they don't see, and they come to the door one by one, and their conscience is let the dog eat it." ” Qiao Yun hugged him from behind, and said with hatred in her mouth, "The adults are in charge, let them fend for themselves, and see how capable they can be."
Adults can also have a break and spend more time with Qiaoyun. ” Qu Zhengkun let out a long breath from his nose, "I want to ignore it, but the court has set a rule, and as soon as the drum of grievances sounds, the county government must try the case, if I don't ignore it, this matter will be spread by some people with a heart, and then I won't be able to keep this official hat on my head." ” Qiao Yun rolled her eyes viciously, "These shitty things, they deserve to die so miserably one by one, my lord, you can go, the concubine will be here to help you curse them one by one, so that they will not die well, and their families will be ruined." ”
