The cold dew was thick, and the location by the lake was slightly humid, and the small bells were stained with a layer of water, as well as a little mud and grass clippings.After the dragon star map was carefully wiped clean with a handkerchief, it was found that the small bell was made of copper, and it looked ordinary on the surface, but the inner wall was engraved with a "blue" character!
Zhao Shilang's attention was on the trace inspection, and he said: "Lord Long, judging from the thickness of the bell submerged in the soil and the clean and debris-free environment around it, it should have been lost here not long ago. ”Long Xingtu said: "This is the place where the dumb monk found the body of the deceased, if the bell was lost before, when the monks of the precept institute fished up the body, the sky was bright and there were many people, there was no reason why it could not be found." ”"You mean, after the body was fished out, someone came and left the bell here?""
Highly likely!"
Zhao Shilang got up suddenly, his expression faintly excited, "Under normal circumstances, no one will run to the place where someone has just died, and if something big suddenly happens in the temple, all the monks will definitely be summoned!"
So, it should be the murderer!
”"Even if it's not the murderer, there's something else going on.Of course, these are all our speculations, and we will have to start from Master Huizhen later. ”After Long Xingtu finished speaking, he handed the bronze bell to Zhao Shilang and said, "The bell is engraved, and most of them are tokens or identity certificates.Lord Zhao, take a look, but acquaintances?
”"Blue?"
Zhao Shilang stared at the words on the inner wall of the bell, pondered for a long time, and then said, "I'm afraid you have to ask Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War!"
”Long Xingtu was surprised, "Marquis of Anguo?
”Zhao Shilang's face floated a trace of strangeness, "Lord Long has a close personal relationship with the young Hou Ye, don't you even know that there was once a tiger and wolf army under the Hou Ye?"
Or, has Lord Long never heard of the inside story of Hou Ye's retreat from the torrent back then?
”Long Xingtu frowned, his voice tightened, "Lord Zhao, what do you know?"
Is there any special origin of this copper bell?
”"With my relationship with Yan Xiang, no matter what I say, Lord Long, you will doubt my credibility, so why should I bother to talk about it?
In case you have a disagreement with the Marquis of Anguo Mansion because of this, and the young marquis is to blame, I, Zhao Qiming, can't afford it. ”"Lord Zhao!"
Seeing that Long Xingtu was angry, Zhao Shilang was indifferent, "Lord Long, you can ask the young marquis directly."
As a strict party faction that you automatically subscribed to, this official has no reason to mix in, and it is boring to talk about himself. ”Long Xingtu stared at Zhao Shilang gloomily, and his words were sharp, "Lord Zhao, what Long only cares about is the righteous path in the world, and all he asks for is the truth!"
The copper bell is related to the death of Juejing, and now that the young marquis is not in Huangjue Temple, does Lord Zhao want Long to give up the near and far?
Or is Lord Zhao not afraid of delaying the case, but only afraid of the anger of the Marquis of Anguo?
”"I ......"
Zhao Shilang was speechless, his eyes were full of resentment, "Long Xingtu, the official can see it, you are changing the way to bully the official!"
”Long Xingtu pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, Lord Zhao, tell me what you know, and I will check with the young marquis when I go back." ”Zhao Shilang took the bronze bell in his hand and looked at it over and over again, his tone was very complicated, "In the years when Hou Ye was in charge, this official was only a show talent, and he had not yet entered the official career, but Hou Ye's prestige was far and wide, and everyone in the world knew about it.Hou Ye cultivated an invincible army, called the 'Li Family Army', and the Li Family Army was led by ten 'iron head' generals, and their status symbol was a copper bell engraved with the word 'blue'!
