Chapter 904: The old man is dead
He went out on the street and found a foreigner-run clinic with a telephone. After many requests, the outpatient clinic let him in, and after calling the county government and the adjutant, he returned to the shroud shop again.
In less than half an hour, adjutant Qiu Jiu came with a squad of soldiers and two servants.
"Adjutant, you quickly ask the servant to check and see if it is man-made or a strange beast. This is something that Lu Ming must confirm at present. If it is man-made, the case is not difficult, and the case can be solved even if it takes a little time. But if a strange beast is doing it, then there is no way to say clearly.
There are two people, one is younger, about thirty years old, and the man, who looks a little stumbling and sloppy, and can pierce people to death with a beard. The other is a little older, probably in his fifties. This is the best person Huzhong County can find to do this job.
The sorrow of small cities is here, the lack of talent, coupled with the repeated battles, many of them died on the battlefield, and more left their hometowns to go to places where they thought they would be safe.
However, these two servants were quick with their hands and feet, and when they examined the corpse, Lu Ming could see that this was a professional person.
During the inspection of the corpse, Lu Ming took the adjutant to investigate the scene, and even the clues could not be let go.
After tossing and turning all night, the next morning, after the sun came out, the survey work here was finished. Lu Ming yawned a few times, feeling a little bad in spirit. He ordered a squad of soldiers to take Qi Mengzhu to the county office, after all, it was estimated that the county government was out, and other places were not very safe.
He went back to his office and rearranged the reports he had surveyed overnight, trying to sort out his thoughts and see what had happened last night.
Qi Mengzhu heard that the old craftsman in the north of the city had died, and met Lu Ming directly, wondering what was going on.
"Captain Lu, I just asked you to help me repair the magic weapon, how can this good old craftsman die?" Qi Mengzhu blamed herself very much in her heart, thinking that the old craftsman was her friend of the Qi family for many years, and every magic weapon in the Qi family was broken, as long as she looked for him, she could repair it perfectly.
"I don't know, this old man didn't want to repair it, he wanted to drive me away, I had to go out of the shroud shop, but I didn't expect to walk a few steps before I heard a scream. When he came back, he saw that he was dead. ”
Qi Mengzhu was puzzled, "Who will this old craftsman offend, and he can invite death." ”
"I don't know, but it's a little strange that when I went to the shroud shop, I smelled something very strange. After the old man died, I chased him out and smelled it along the way. ”
Qi Mengzhu was startled for a moment, and said without thinking: "What else can it smell, it is naturally the smell of the transformation beast, but it's not right, how can you smell this smell?"
Except for Taoist priests and Taoist aunts, after learning Taoism to a certain level, they have such skills to smell the smell of foreign beasts. But Lu Ming was able to do it, which made Qi Mengzhu a little surprised in his heart.
"Then I don't know, I want to ask Miss Qi, what is the smell of this transfiguration beast?" 16 read
"I can't say it, it's just a little bit of a urine smell, but it's not very similar, this smell is very unique, as long as you smell it, you can know what kind of beast it is. Qi Mengzhu's face was solemn and replied simply.
Lu Ming nodded thoughtfully, recalling that the smell he had just smelled was a little different. "So that's the case, now there are dead people in the city again, and the dead are still the old man who repaired the magic weapon. If you want to catch the Transfiguration Beast, do you have to need this magic weapon?"
"Naturally, the Bagua Yin-Yang Mirror is the best magic weapon to trap the Transfiguration Beast. Without it, my mana would have been greatly reduced, and I would have been unable to do anything about this strange beast. It's also my limited mana, otherwise how could this little transfiguration beast be my opponent. In addition, there is a mysterious power behind it, which is naturally very difficult to deal with. ”
"Also, Miss Qi, otherwise, you give me some Taoism, and when the time comes, the two of us will join forces, and it should be stronger than the strength of one person. I don't know if Miss Qi can agree to my request. Lu Ming mentioned the matter of cultivation again, but he was not sure in his heart, after all, how could this Qi family's Taoism be passed on.
With a bang, the person standing outside the door was the angry Mu Fei, who ran in and sandwiched himself in front of Lu Ming and Qi Mengzhu. "What am I talking about? This guy just doesn't give up, and always wants to use the excuse of cultivation to get close to Miss Qi. Lu Ming, are you out of business, there are so many people dying every day, don't you care, but instead entangle Miss Qi. ”
Mu Fei broke the originally good atmosphere, Lu Ming's eyes widened and he scolded: "Get out, get out of here quickly." ”
"This is your house, you say I'll go out. ”
"No, isn't your kid locked in a cell, why did you come out?" Lu Ming suddenly came to his senses, he had let people detain Mu Fei before, and he was really taken aback by appearing at this time.
Mu Fei was stunned for a moment, then first walked away from Lu Ming, and said with a smile: "What kind of cell is your cell, the door is not locked, I will open it as soon as I push it open." Seeing that everyone was busy, I came out on my own. ”
Lu Ming was furious, if this was anything else, there was room for negotiation, but this was a public prison, so a prisoner came out with a swagger, what kind of system.
Immediately, he called the adjutant and scolded: "Qiu Jiu, what are you eating? The prisoners have all come out, haven't you noticed that there are no people in the prison?"
After Qiu Jiu saw Mu Fei, he immediately knew the seriousness of the matter, he personally arrested Mu Fei and scolded angrily: "Mu Fei, how did you get out, I originally wanted to lock you up for a few days and come out, but now things are different, you are a prison escape, it doesn't matter how you can do it for three years and five years." ”
After a while, two soldiers came up and tied up Mu Fei, preparing to stay.
Seeing this scene, Qi Mengzhu asked a little confused: "No, Captain Lu, what kind of law did this Mu Fei violate, why do you want to detain him?"
"Miss Qi, you don't care about this matter, I have my own measure, take it down. Lu Ming didn't wait for the other party to ask, so he forced someone to take it down.
Unexpectedly, Qi Mengzhu blocked the way of the soldiers and prevented them from taking people away. "No, if you don't make it clear today, you can't take it away. Head Lu, I don't know how Mu Fei usually is, but he is from the Mu family, and he has helped us before, can't you be accommodating?"
Lu Ming actually didn't really want to imprison Mu Fei, but because he made trouble before, the arrest plan failed, and he felt very uncomfortable, so he imprisoned this guy. Now it must be closed again, if Mu Shanhe knows, it is estimated that it will be impossible to cooperate with the county government to appease the families of those victims at that time.
