Volume 1 First Acquaintance Chapter 15 The moon is dark and the wind is high, suitable for digging graves

Huang Wuye saw that it was still early, so he squinted at those Danfeng eyes and made a small abacus, you must know that since grandma came out of prison, Ling Yue has been living in a small courtyard, and it is very regular to work at sunrise and sunset every day, and if he wants to say two more words to him, he has to go to the big meat shop, which is really expensive... Today, you might as well turn him back to the broken temple and have a wine song, although he has amnesia and it is difficult to confirm his identity, but it will not delay them to establish some wine and meat feelings.

Thinking about this, Huang Wuye stretched out his sinful little hand and grabbed Ling Yue's shoulder, and coaxed and teased the fish to take the bait on the grounds that Gu Da Gu Er had found the clue of the White Ape Demon, Chang Ying originally wanted to follow, but he still didn't worry about grandma going back by herself, so he had to pout and wave goodbye to Brother Ling after some struggle.

To say that since the two foxes were punished, a few rooms have been vacated in the inn, Huang Wuye wanted to move the nest, but who knew that Lin Gao was afraid that he would say nothing and not go to live, and he didn't know what Huang Wuye was thinking, so he took root in this broken temple, and several people were accompanied by the statue every day, and the sacred temperament was not infected for half a minute.

Ling Yue followed Huang Wuye Lin Gao back to the broken temple, and just entered the door and couldn't help but stumble, good guys, the almost two-meter-high Cihang real portrait was full of clothes hung by them... It's really disrespectful... However, Ling Yue was not too religious, he rolled his eyes and only thought that he was blind and didn't see it, and was about to find a futon to sit down, when he saw Gu Da Gu Er, who had just come back from outside the city, frantically gave them a look, and there was an uninvited guest in this temple.

This person is the master of Qin, the whole person is much thinner than a week ago, standing in the shadow of the god statue for a while, no one notices...

"Yo, isn't this Master Qin, which gust of wind blew you here?" Lin Gao saw that this person was unconsciously angry, and squinted his eyes with a look of disdain.

Master Qin knew that he was not treated well here, but he had no choice but to whisper: "Don't call me Master Qin, my surname is Qin Mingtong, I have offended a lot before, if you are willing to sell my face, call me Brother Qin." After speaking, he wanted to sell it well: "But how do you live in this broken temple, if you don't have a place to live, I can find someone to help you find a comfortable place..."

Lin Gao said with a gun and a stick: "No need, we don't have to climb high branches, this temple is very good, comfortable!"

Qin Tong didn't understand what he said, he was suddenly a little embarrassed, and it was very embarrassing to stand there, but he still had something to do, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Ahem, a few young heroes, I don't know if Lord Xiao has found out anything about those two cases now?"

Huang Wuye thought that he wanted to inquire about the case again and find a way to return to officialdom, and was a little impatient: "Why are you inquiring about this? Does it have anything to do with you?" ”

Qin Tong was silent for a while, and said with a gloomy face: "Master Yuan is dead..."

The three of them were a little stunned when they heard this, the injury that day should not be fatal, Qin Tong saw that they didn't answer, so he sighed and explained: "That day, I saw that he was seriously injured and had difficulty moving, so I found him a place to live in the suburbs, planning to take care of him for a few days, I can't see that he is dead... I went out of town yesterday to bring him food, and I found that he had been poked in that house... The whole person is cold..."

Only then did Ling Yue understand, but even if Master Yuan died, what would it have to do with them, with his previous unobtrusive personality, he might have provoked some enemies...

"I think the state of his corpse is very similar to those in Zhangfu, I remember that you have studied the case of Zhangfu very much before, and I want you to help me investigate, after all, he also caused this disaster because of me... And if this matter is related to the Zhang Mansion Extermination Case, then it will be a great achievement for you to report to Lord Xiao at that time..."

"I said Master Qin, you are really a worrying life, if I want to say that this important matter of human life is naturally investigated by the City Division, what do we have to do with our little people, turn around and let the eldest brother go and talk to Lord Xiao, don't worry about it." Lin Gao thought he was an eyesore, so he pulled Qin Tong and walked to the door of the broken temple as he spoke: "Master Qin, go slowly." "Bending over and waving your hands in one go.

Seeing that Huang Wuye was indifferent and Ling Yue was looking at the sky on the side, knowing that this trip was in vain, Qin Tong shook his head dejectedly and turned to leave, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly thought of something: "I paid you to investigate the case?"

"Please come back!"

"Wait. ”

Two voices exploded in Ling Yue's ears, only to see Lin Gao looking at Huang Wuye with a disgusted expression: "Big brother!

Qin Tong saw that there was a play, and hurriedly walked back, he happened to hear that the white ape demon they had recently chased offered a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, and he didn't have so much net worth, fortunately, Huang Wuye didn't have a lion to open his mouth, the two of them made a decision, and finally received Qin Tong's deposit of one hundred taels first, Lin Gao was standing aside with his lips and sulking, but Huang Wuye directly smashed a bag of money on his head, and he saw that this bag of money was really a lot, so he stopped talking.

But now that it's ugly, there is a curfew in this Qiuling City, and the soldiers guarding the city will lock the city gate when they are young, not to mention going out of the city, even if they go out of this broken temple, they may be caught in the city secretary's mansion and think about it. But the matter of digging the grave is still dark and windy, and it is easy to act, Huang Wuye and Qin Tong still decided that they would go on a trip. Ling Yue pondered and followed, what if this matter was really related to the Zhang Mansion Destruction Case...

The group sneaked along the wall, and finally arrived at the city gate without danger, but when they saw the city wall that was more than three feet long, Ling Yue was in trouble, and he didn't have any kung fu spell foundation... Can you still let Gu Da Gu Er fly over with him in his arms... Just when he was making up a big drama of "heroes helping beauty", he saw Qin Tong, who was walking in front, beckoning to them, but took them around the city wall and walked another mile, and there was a small gate here.

Qin Tong directly took out a bronze key: "This door is usually unguarded, I will leave a key when I am the master book..." Huang Wuye stopped, hesitated for a moment and turned back to Gu Da Gu Er and said, "You two are waiting for us in the city, don't go out with us, if we come back in a while, open the door for us." "After all, he doesn't want to blow a cold wind under the city gates...

The group walked out of the city gate and followed Qin Tong to the outskirts of the city. The sky was full of dark clouds, and at this time, even half a cent of moonlight could not penetrate it, the more Ling Yue walked, the more gloomy he felt, looking at the dark and endless road ahead, occasionally a few black cries, he couldn't help but stand on end, seeing Qin Tong in front of him walking faster and faster, bad thoughts began to entrench in his heart... Could it be that this man deliberately designed to lure them out of the city, wanting to find a place to kill them, in order to avenge the loss of his official position in the city governor... The more Ling Yue thought about it, the more frightened he became, his feet felt weak for a while, and he leaned towards Huang Wuye as he walked, just when he was about to stick to Huang Wuye, Qin Tong finally pointed to a dirt bag on the ground and said, "That's it." ”

This dirt bag is really a bit random between a few trees, and there is not even a tablet made of a wooden plank, if it weren't for Qin Tong to lead the way, no one would have noticed this.

Huang Wuye looked around and saw that there was no place to rest, so he casually found a big tree and sat down: "You are really interesting, and you buried this lame." ”

Ling Yue saw that the fifth master had no intention of making a move, and knew that he couldn't call this young master, so he shrugged his shoulders and began to dig the grave with Qin Tong, but after digging twice, he didn't see Lin Gao's figure, and turned his head to see that the person was holding a fan and fanning the fifth master, Ling Yue saw through that he was using this to escape the grave digging matter, so he was very angry and grabbed this person's collar and dragged him back.

But fortunately, the three old men worked fast, and after a while, the grave was dug out, and before Ling Yue could see the inside clearly, he was smoked by a foul smell, this smell was extremely high, not only stinking but also mixed with the smell of blood and rancid acid.

"Why is it so stinky!" Huang Wuye scolded his mother, he was farther away from Ling Yue, and he couldn't open his eyes because of the smell.

"This demon is also very serious. Lin Gao covered his nose and sighed, after more than ten minutes, everyone gradually felt that they could breathe again, and they didn't know whether the smell had dissipated or they had adapted to the environment.

"The corpse was blackened, its chest and abdomen were pierced, and there were marks on its body that resembled whipping... Poisoning, piercing, whipping corpses? Huang Wuye said with emotion.

"When I bury him, he hasn't turned black yet..."Qin Tong said with a frown.

The four of them squatted on the grave and looked at the corpse below, and if someone passed by at this time and stepped forward to take a picture, it would be really scary, how scary.

"Wait, what is that?" asked Huang Wuye, pointing to the grave. The crowd looked in the direction of his hand, but they didn't see anything strange. Huang Wuye pouted when he saw them with a blank face, this is so tragic at the bottom, he will definitely not jump off the grave, then...

Hearing only a miserable scream, Ling Yue was frightened, and then he saw that Lin Gao was actually pushed down the grave by Huang Wuye, and this person did not stand firm and pounced on the corpse, face to face almost did not have a close contact. But fortunately, he reacted quickly and had a good waist, so he quickly stood up and touched his chest to breathe...

The corners of Ling Yue's mouth twitched... This Huang Wuye really has no bottom line in doing things, and sure enough, this person didn't mean to be half sorry, and naturally commanded Lin Gao to take out the "strange" thing, Lin Gao dared to be angry and didn't dare to say anything, so he had to do it obediently, only to see him take out a leaf from the abdomen where the corpse was pierced.

"This leaf must have fallen from the tree when the body was buried yesterday. Ling Yue endured his nausea and pointed to the surrounding trees, returning unconcernedly.

"This leaf..."Qin Tong frowned, and when he saw the three of them looking at it directly, he had no choice but to say bluntly: "I once saw this leaf in the inner courtyard of Lord Lian, and the Lord said that it was a sacred tree from the Western Regions, which was very rare, and it was usually not allowed to be approached at all." ”

"Has this cripple been to the inner courtyard?"

"Those who can't get in are guarded by officials... Besides, judging by the freshness of this leaf, it must have fallen in the past two days, and he would have been expelled from the city..."

"That's you...?"

Qin Tong shook his head, since that day, he had not been to the City Division's Mansion.

Everyone fell silent for a while, but since they had already come down, Lin Gao circled around the grave twice and compared the penetrating wound in the abdomen: "You see that the wound in this abdomen is as thick as my two arms, is there any weapon like this? And the edges are uneven... I feel that this is different from those corpses in Zhang's house..."

"Isn't he being sought revenge by someone..."It seems that this matter has little to do with the matter of Zhang Fu, Ling Yue thinks that he is more likely to be sought revenge when he thinks of him in the past...

"Hey, there's no clue in this pit, you guys pull me up first" Lin Gao dragged Ling Yue's ankle and asked him to quickly pull himself up: "We still have to think about how to explain that leaf." ”

Huang Wuye pouted and walked towards the big tree again: "There is no clue, bury him, let's go back first." ”

After tossing, the group walked back to Qiuling City with pale faces, and they didn't say anything all the way. Just in time for the city gate to open, Gu Da Gu Er was waiting for them in the city with a few meat buns, and when he saw the meat buns, the four people who endured all the way finally turned their backs and vomited. Gu Da Gu Er stood in the middle with a bun and looked a little overwhelmed for a while.
