Chapter 137 The Horse Trail and the Spider Silk Are Finally Detected
Luan Ge didn't answer, but motioned for him to continue. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Since last night, Zhao Yi seems to be a different person. The insight and vigilance he showed after no longer hiding his clumsiness, and because he had been in Anyang for many years, his understanding and familiarity with various situations could allow Luan Ge to see the problem more comprehensively from another angle, so she couldn't help but take the initiative to ask Zhao Yi's opinion after choosing trust.
Zhao Yi didn't hold it, seeing Luan Ge like this, he was also happy to analyze and listen to her: "As Fang Cai's little second said, he saw this scene from behind on a rainy night, not to mention the darkness in the forest, how can he see it clearly? If he really sent something to a guest, he was afraid that he would shout to stop him if he saw it from a distance, so if this little second didn't lie, then he was very far away, and he could only see a vague outline clearly." In this way, he saw that all this was able to survive the disaster and not be extinguished, and it was over. β
Luan Ge nodded, his words were reasonable, and then he listened to Zhao Yi's analysis: "Judging from the actions of the third child just now, the person is definitely not his hand." If you think about it, he will feel uncomfortable when he is exposed to selling fake wine mixed with water on the street, it can be seen that he is a coward, if he really dares to harm others and be accused, I am afraid that it has already been shown on his face, and if this is the case, then Xiao Er will not send things, so it is definitely not him who kills. On the contrary, it is a little more likely to emerge in comparison.
In Xiao Er's words, the stranger was alone all the way, until the middle of the forest, something happened, and there was no one around him, and then he couldn't even find the corpse, either he was not dead, maybe he was poisoned or some reason, and then he was taken away, Xiao Er panicked and guessed like this, or it was really done by witchcraft - according to legend, Miao Jiang has an extremely ruthless poison called scattered smoke. This scattered smoke was originally used by them to deal with the corpses of insects, snakes, birds and beasts in the forest to prevent decay and smell. However, the witch people who know witchcraft can soak this poison on other treated utensils to fight the enemy, and when the time comes, not only the people who come into contact with it, but even the murder weapon, will disappear completely, and there is really nowhere to find it. At that time, many people died in the small country that tried to annex southern Xinjiang, which made Miao Xinjiang a taboo place for everyone to talk about. β
Hearing Zhao Yi say so much, Luan Ge was relieved, and when he knew a little more about Miao Jiang, he was also a little more puzzled: "Then since this is the case, why do you think that it was Fusheng's doing? I didn't expect him to be taken away before, so I preconceived that he did it, but now that I hear you say this, I can't rule out the possibility that it was Liukou's doing." β
Listening to Luan Ge ask like this, Zhao Yi also talked about his thoughts quite patiently.
It is true that it cannot be ruled out that he is also prejudiced against Fusheng, but when it comes to Liukou, Zhao Yi really thinks it is unlikely.
"That man is poor and white, and it is precisely because he can't live at home that he wants to come out to beg for a living, what can the rogues look down on him? Besides, if it is really a rogue, it will be a group of people who will come out together, and they will not be so quiet, so from the point of view of rationality, this is actually unjustifiable. But they are different, this person is happy at best, but if it doesn't sound good, it's extremely ruthless, and there were contradictions between them before, so it's hard not to think about it. β
Zhao Yi listed all kinds of trade-offs like this, but looking at Luan Ge's thoughtful look, he then smiled and said: "But then again, these are all our guesses, as for whether it is him or not, let's wait until we get to Spoon Yuan Town." It may not be possible to find out something. β
Luan Ge couldn't help but nodded, and responded: "It seems that this is the only way." β
There are many dense forests in the western mountains, although the donkey cart on which the two are sitting has nothing to cover, but the dense branches and leaves along the way can also temporarily hide the sun, and the occasional mountain breeze is not so scorching.
After an hour and a half, I arrived at Spoon Yuan Town.
Looking at the town monument in front of him, Zhao Yi beat his waist, jumped off the donkey cart, turned his neck and said, "It's finally here, this donkey cart is really panicking." β
Luan Ge smiled and didn't speak.
Anyone who sits on the hardwood board with their waist crossed for a long time and still tosses and turns will not feel good.
Especially if you are afraid that the hired driver will hear something, and let someone drive it yourself, you can imagine the sourness in it.
But complaining is complaining, and Zhao Yizheng is still quite reliable when he gets serious.
After moving his lower waist, he jumped into the car again, raised the whip in his hand, and pointed to the woods on both sides of the road in front of him: "According to what Xiao Er said, he was near this monument at that time, and it seems that the front is where the person had an accident at that time." β
"Come up and take a look. When Luan Ge heard this, he motioned to Zhao Yi to catch the car.
After a while, the donkey cart stopped, and only Zhao Yidao said: "Judging from the weather conditions that night, as far as ordinary people can see, it is roughly around here, and the distance and distance are three or four feet apart, which is not too much." β
Luan Ge looked around, the ground was mottled with dust, and the traces of cars, horses and pedestrians could be vaguely seen, but it was only recently.
After all, it rained heavily that night, even if there were any clues left, I am afraid that it has been washed away by the rain, and I have seen it on the road, although there is nothing to gain, but it is also expected, there is no big loss and regret.
It is clear whether there are traces on the road or not, but the forests on both sides of the road are not so easy to erase the traces.
After a little groaning, Luan Ge was about to step into the forest, but was stopped by Zhao Yi in a loud voice: "This forest is so big, if you just go in like this, you may not know when you will come out." Why don't we go to the town in front of us and have a bite to eat, and then come back and have a look?"
It's okay that Zhao Yi didn't say this, but as soon as he said this, Luan Ge realized that it was already noon at this time, and his stomach was indeed a little empty.
So she nodded and said, "It's fine." β
Anping Town is the most prosperous and lively town in the entire Xishan County because it is close to the Xishan Military Camp, which is the best place for public security.
In comparison, whether it is Hefeng Town or the Spoon Yuan Town in front of them, they are much inferior.
So not long after they walked forward, the two of them saw an inn, which looked spacious and bright.
"That's it, and if you go any further, it's about the same. Zhao Yi was lazy, and Luan Ge didn't care, so the two of them entered this inn and ordered some food.
Although most of the people have already eaten lunch at this point, there are still people in the restaurant who are eating like the two of them.
Luan Geben was concentrating on eating, but suddenly a whispered discussion fell on her ears, making her stop the movements in her hands.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Yi noticed her strangeness and couldn't help asking.
Luan Ge didn't speak, but when he looked up, his eyes were a little strange when he looked at the counter.
Zhao Yi turned his head and followed her line of sight, only to see a servant-like man dressed in navy blue walking out of the store, carrying a package on his back.
"It's okay, eat first, and we'll talk about it later. Just when Zhao Yi thought she had discovered something, she heard Luan Ge say this.
That being said, but judging from Luan Ge's actions, it doesn't look like it's okay at all. But if she didn't want to say it, Zhao Yi couldn't force it, so she had to turn her head and continue eating, but her mind was already far away.
At the time of checkout, Zhao Yiben wanted to temporarily leave the donkey cart at this inn, thinking that this place was not far from the forest, and it would be convenient to retrieve it when he went back, but before he could speak, he heard Luan Ge first put the long whip on his waist on the counter, raised his eyebrows and said: "Shopkeeper, it is said that you have lived here with a girl in blue clothes?"
"The girl in blue?" The shopkeeper's brows jumped, and he scolded damn it, he could say whatever he wanted, but he still smiled Yan Yan on his face: "This old boy really hasn't noticed, you know, we who open the door to do business come and go, and we don't remember everything, right?"
"Oh, it turns out that the nobleman who is in charge of the shopkeeper forgets how much. Luan Ge knocked on the counter with the whip tail in his hand, and said with a smile: "Then I'll remind the shopkeeper again." Are there a woman who wears blue all day these days, and a white scarf on her face? With her, a man dressed in black and wearing a hat, who never wants to see people with his true face?"
"This ...... The girl ......, "The shopkeeper didn't expect Luan Ge to be so clear, and he couldn't find the words to refute for a while."
"Huh?" Luan Ge elongated her voice, as if waiting for her answer.
Even if Zhao Yi on the side didn't understand, he knew at this time that he was afraid that Luan Ge was already sure in his heart that Fusheng and the woman had settled here, no matter what the reason was, she didn't say it, but now she had to let the shopkeeper explain honestly.
Therefore, he also took out the saber at his waist, threw it on the counter with a clatter, and even sat directly on the counter, looking like he was going to make trouble, so that the guests at the other tables fled to the desert, and after a while, the whole inn became even more empty, and only a few of them remained.
The shopkeeper wanted to cry without tears, but the threat of the previous man was in front of him, and he still remembered the sins they had suffered that night, and how could he dare to really ask what to say?
But he didn't say anything, and the two people in front of him were not good at stubble, so he didn't know what to do, so he had to helplessly say goodbye: "Son, woman, the little one really doesn't know anything, even if you ask, I'm ...... Ay...... Please, okay, we run a small business, and we can't afford to make such a fuss. β
"If you ask you anything, you can say anything, why do you talk so much nonsense?!This is not much of a fuss, you just said so, if I don't listen to you, then if I don't listen to you, make a fuss, I'm really sorry for you to say this!" he jumped off the counter and took two steps forward to lift a table.
Not to mention, as soon as Zhao Yi opened his mouth, he was full of gangsterism, like an unreasonable bully.
The corners of Luan Ge's mouth twitched, but he didn't stop him, but looked at the shopkeeper with a smile, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear clearly: "I also heard what you said to that servant just now, let's give you face, just ask a few words, you said that you were hard-hearted and didn't say it, then don't blame us for being polite." Think about it first, whether the person who has left reacts quickly, or the person who is in front of you is fast. β
As soon as he said that, the long whip was wrapped around the shopkeeper's neck, and his face turned red in an instant, and he couldn't stop pulling the whip with both hands, but he couldn't pull it at all.
"Even if you don't say it now, I know what the answer is, and I'll give you two choicesβfirst, tell me when they came here, what they do on weekdays, when they left, and what kind of houses they lived in, and I can promise you not to tell anyone that this is what you said; β
Luan Ge stretched out his hand and patted the shopkeeper's face, although he was smiling like a flower, but he looked like Shura was reincarnated.
"I said, I said, you ...... first. Let me go first...... Ahem......"
Luan Ge let go of the whip with satisfaction, looked at the shopkeeper's panting appearance, and listened attentively.
At this time, Zhao Yi, who had just lifted a table and was looking for a place to drink tea, also came up.
"Those two...... Both of them came to our inn around June 20th. β
"Did it happen to rain heavily that night?!" Hearing this, Luan Ge's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help asking.
"Yes...... It was ......" Although he was surprised and Luan Ge reacted so quickly, the shopkeeper didn't care about it so much, but thought about hurrying to finish speaking, so as to send the two plague gods away: "That night was the only time it was full, so I remember it very clearly, even the inn hall was full of guests who didn't have a room to stay. But it is precisely for this reason...... It's late in the day...... At that time, the boy sent someone down to talk about it several times, but everyone drank wine and ate meat, and there was so much control there...... Later, everyone had a stomach upset, and it didn't matter if they took the medicine raw, so they kept hurting all night, and no one shouted loudly anymore...... Other people may not know, and the guests say that there is a problem with my family's wine and meat, but I can be sure......! But I couldn't find it out, and I didn't dare to check it, so I had to eat this dumb loss......"
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper peeked at Zhao Yi and Luan Ge, but he was unmoved when he saw the two.
It seems that they want to tell their previous lessons and the reasons why they dare not talk nonsense because they are threatened, and these two people can sympathize with them and stop asking, but now it seems that it is impossible at all.
With a sigh, he had no choice but to accept his fate, and then obediently answered the following questions.
"These two don't deal with people much on weekdays, and the boy is elusive, and often doesn't know when he is there, but that girl has been in the inn until two days ago. After that, the boy came back and saw that the person was gone, and he also left, but he didn't check out, and he didn't take some things. The eldest brother just now came to take his master's things......"
"Where do you live?" Luan Ge asked.
"Upstairs upstairs, the sky and the ground. The boy lives in the sky, and the girl lives in the ground......"
Looking at the furnishings in the house, it can be seen that the guy who just checked out has not had time to clean up, and the house is still the same, but except for the bed, it seems that nothing has been touched.
Luan Ge frowned and walked around the room.
The lighting of these two rooms is excellent, perhaps because of the high level, standing from the window can actually see a good view, especially the half of the street in the town, and the dense forest outside the town, which makes people feel that it is ......
Forest......
Luan Ge's eyes narrowed, as if something flashed through her mind, and she hurriedly stepped out of the staircase and entered the sky at the end of the corridor.
Standing in front of the window, she suddenly understood everything.
"What did you find?" Zhao Yi, who came after her, entered the door and asked.
"Look!" Luan Ge stretched out his hand, motioning for him to look in a certain direction outside. (To be continued.) )
