The Disappearance of the Real Chapter 21 The Murderer?
It's night, ugly in the middle of the night
The land south of the Yangtze River was already damp, and it was rainy outside the house, the roof tiles were leaking, and the bedding was not very comfortable.
"Mrs. Qin, open the door.... Knock knock..."
Tang Qi, who had finally fallen asleep, was suddenly woken up by a hurried sound.
Tang Qi lay on the bed in a daze, his head still hurt a little, I don't know when the rain outside stopped, and now the light and shadow outside the house are shaking, and the voices are noisy, in this case, it seems impossible to continue sleeping...
Tang Qi, who slowed down his thoughts, got up, and the thin clothes that had been sleeping with his clothes left the bedding as soon as he left the bedding, and a chill hit, Tang Qi shivered...
"Mrs. Qin, I heard that there is a person from your family at dusk?"
As soon as Tang Qi walked out of the hall, he saw that a group of people's eyes were focused on him, and he was a little stunned, "What's the matter?"
In the eyes of everyone, Tang Qi is dressed in a strange costume, the style and material seem to have never been seen, and the young man under the firelight is also tall, with red lips and white teeth, a delicate face, and his eyes are a little tired...
After all, although this young man's clothes are strange, the material workmanship is obviously extraordinary, and ordinary people can sew it.
The silence didn't last long, a person came out of the crowd, an old man with a white beard, with a straight waist and a straight back, and his momentum was imposing, he looked at Tang Qi with scrutiny, and at first glance he was the leader of the crowd.
"Zhao Zhengqing is in the old Qinghe, I don't know where the name of the son comes from?
Mrs. Zhao, the chief of the company, shook his fists lightly, his tone was respectful, and his eyes were still looking at Tang Qi like scrutiny, as if he could see something like this.
Tang Qi also hurriedly clenched his fists, "The boy's surname is Tang Mingqi, the Tang Dynasty clan in the extreme east, originally a wealthy family, but the family situation changed a few days ago, and the solid flow is here, and he will leave tomorrow, if you are offended, please make it clear.."
In a hurry, Tang Qi couldn't make up any convincing lies, so he could only add fuel and vinegar according to the previous background.
Mrs. Zhao didn't delve into it, after all, it is an ancient scene, and the exchange of communication and information between people is still very backward, and he is only a small mile long, which is equivalent to the head of a township now.
"I accused Tang Gongzi, it was really a murder case that just happened in Benli, and I must thoroughly investigate Benli, before this matter is clear, please Tang Gongzi don't leave on his own, if there is any delay, look at Haihan..."
Even if no suspicion is found for the time being, Mrs. Zhao is cautious, at this time, the entire person in the room is suspicious, and no one who may be the murderer should be let go.
"Mrs. Qin, who else is in your family?" Mrs. Zhao was about to leave, but after thinking about it, he turned around and asked.
"Oh, there is no other population in the family, only the eldest grandson is still awake..."
Mrs. Zhao nodded, he was just used to asking, and Mrs. Qin's family also knew about the situation, and there were no other young and strong laborers...
After everyone left, Tang Qi glanced at Mrs. Qin and said strangely, "The courtyard is so noisy, Xiaobao is quite asleep..."
In this dark night where he couldn't even see the moon, Tang Qi of course couldn't see the unnatural stiffness on Mrs. Qin's face, and only heard a bland "En..."
Midday (9 a.m. to 11 a.m.)
When people are extremely sleepy, they can really sleep sweetly no matter what the circumstances, and Tang Qi, who has slept for almost ten hours, got up refreshed.
After yesterday's rain, today's weather is fine, and Tang Qi stands under the only big tree in the yard.
This seems to be a camphor tree, thirty or forty centimeters in diameter, luxuriant branches, a faint cool fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose, a little comfortable feeling, the morning sun is not too dazzling, the air still seems to retain the moist breath after yesterday's rain, a beam of sunlight through the leaves of the camphor projected onto Tang Qi, hazy but warm and bright.
"It's really a rare and comfortable scene" Tang Qi thought, his eyes inadvertently moved down, but he saw a few small trees growing next to the camphor tree, white trumpet-shaped flowers hanging on the treetops, and crystal water droplets visible to the naked eye stayed in the flowers. A gust of wind blew, the branches and leaves of the lush camphor tree shook and made a rustling sound, and the flowers on the small trees swayed gently, the round dew inadvertently slipped from the flowers, and the grass on the ground shook the leaves, but only received a little crystal...
Tang Qi saw that the flowers of this small tree were very chic, so he stretched out his hand and wanted to play with it.
"Don't touch!"
Tang Qi looked at Mrs. Qin, who was excited, a little stunned, and took back the hand that was stretched out.
Mrs. Qin may have also noticed that she seemed to be excited, and turned her head to explain, "These flowers are Xiaobao's treasures..."
Tang Qi didn't continue to speak, he looked at the courtyard door, and a bunch of chaotic footsteps came.
At the door, a sturdy man stepped in, this man had a tiger's back and a bear's waist, leopard eyes and thick beard, especially the scar under his left eye, which almost cut half of his face, and it was a miracle that he could still survive under such medical conditions in ancient times.
Mrs. Qin looked at the person and complimented, "Niu Lixu is in a hurry, but what's the matter..."
The scar-faced man glanced around the courtyard and said, "Mrs. Zhao has an order, all the families should go to the village ancestral hall, there must be no mistakes, and there are children." "The sound is like a bell and drum, buzzing endlessly.
With that, the scar-faced man pushed aside the people behind him and walked back.
"Big mother, what's the matter with Niu Lixu?"
Xiaobao Qin Ri walked out of the hall, still rubbing his eyes and said.
Mrs. Qin sighed, "It's not very important, it's just another eventful autumn..."
In the middle of the day, the land shrine in Qingheli
Qingheli, who doesn't see many people every day, actually has a lot of population. With the two ancestors and grandchildren of the Qin family coming to the ancestral hall in Qingheli, Tang Qi was completely stunned.
At a glance, there were hundreds of square meters of open space in front of the ancestral hall and people standing in the dark, and the sound of chattering was endless.
Why there are so many people in this spiritual domain, and what kind of spiritual domain this is, I don't have a clue about how much of a day has passed. Tang Qi looked at the crowd in front of him, and thought with a headache, and was a little stunned, in such a real place, he could also see the sparrows perched on the top of the ancestral hall in front of him flying up in fright, and he could also see the hundreds of people in front of him with different expressions and postures, who would have thought that this was just an illusory spiritual realm...
"Silence!"
Li Xu Niu Er looked around, and shouted at the signal of Mrs. Zhao of Li Zheng, and the clever little official next to him grabbed the gongs and drums and knocked them up.
The crowd held its breath
Mrs. Zhao clapped his hands a few times, and everyone's eyes turned to him.
"Last night, the Zheng family, the wealthy gentleman of Lidong, and the second son Zheng Gongcheng died at home, and the clouds and rain did not stop, everyone, has anyone seen any changes?"
The crowd below was whispering again, and the sound was as thin as a whisper, and it was inaudible.
"Sue Mrs. Zhao!"
Tang Qi saw that Mrs. Qin's body trembled beside her, and he was really puzzled.
"Last night, when the villain got up at night, I saw that there was a dark shadow in Mrs. Qin's house..."
Everyone was shocked, Tang Qi was surprised at first, and after thinking about it, he was instantly panicked, "Is this starting to target??"
