Feng Chuan concluded that the deceased in the woman's mouth was Yuan Wu, and yesterday she checked his clothes and found no head, so she slept, "The old man you are talking about, is he more than five feet tall, hunchbacked, and often fishes here?" ”

The woman didn't think twice, it was about the same, but he was a little lame on his left foot and walked a little sideways.

Feng Chuan suddenly remembered the old man behind his ears, he must have picked up Yuan Wu's head. Will he see the appearance of the person who dragged Yuan Wu away?

"Do you know that old man?"

The woman shook her head in embarrassment, the old man was from the village, although he always fished here, but his ears were very back, and when he greeted him before, he often answered the wrong questions, and no one wanted to talk to him for a long time.

Feng Chuan understood, motioned to Yuan Han, and the two left.

They went to the upper village, there were not many people in the upper village, more than 30 households, and they found out where the old man lived if they inquired.

Dozens of poplars swayed in the wind, and the two of them slowly walked into Yiyun Village near the Xili River. It seems that there are few strangers in this village on weekdays, and Feng Chuan thinks it is easy to find the old man.

"Auntie, please ask, do you know of an old man with a hunchback and poor hearing?"

The woman drooped her triangular eyes and said crookedly: "People are old, and most of them are deaf, who knows which deaf old man you are talking about?" ”

"An old man with a hunchback, about seventy, who often goes to the river to fish in the lower village."

The other woman was much kinder, guessing if it was Uncle Tian.

"What do you mean by Uncle Tian?"

The woman's eyes looked obliquely upward, and she gestured a few times with her hand, saying that the old man, who was more than five feet tall, often interrupted, but the person was okay, but because of the back of the ear, everyone didn't want to talk to him, and then the woman's eyes turned again, saying that there are all the old people behind the ears in the village, maybe she didn't say it.

The woman who spoke crookedly just now looked at Feng Chuan curiously, "Why are you looking for that old man for no reason, could it be that something happened?" ”

The women in the village have always been like this, they have done all the farm work, and in their spare time, they are at home and outside the house, they talk long and short, and they are quite curious, Feng Chuan lied, and the old man was a cousin of his friend, and dragged him to bring things to the old man.

The two of them are not blind or stupid, Feng Chuan and Yuan Han are empty-handed, so they are naturally lying, "I'll take you there and see if it's the person you're looking for." ”

Feng Chuan Yiyue, but he also hated this woman's boring curiosity.

After walking for a while, the two women chatted a few words.

One of the women stopped and pointed to a house, "This is the home of that old man Tian." After speaking, he raised his eyebrows at the other woman, and had no intention of leaving.

Yuan Han saw that the two of them were dancing outside the door, so he opened his mouth to thank them, suggesting that they leave.

The two women left in disappointment, chattering dissatisfied, without conscience, and the words of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge came out. Yuan Han didn't want to see the woman in general, so he looked at Feng Chuan helplessly, and the two entered the house.

"Anyone?"

Hearing the sound, an old woman came out of it, who was already seventy years old, and when she saw the two of them, she immediately asked what was wrong.

Feng Chuan got straight to the point, and said straight that he was looking for the old man, the old woman looked at him curiously, and shouted at the back room: "Old man, someone is looking for you." Then he looked at the two of them with stiff expressions.

Seeing that the old man had not come out yet, she walked a few steps, approached the window, and called, "Old man, someone is looking for reads;." Then he sighed.

"Dead old man, his ears are not good."

Feng Chuan didn't wait long this time, the old man came out, Feng Chuan recognized the old man at a glance, and the old man also recognized Feng Chuan.

"Old woman, this young man is very good, I saw that my shoes were old that day, isn't this ...... Bought me another pair. After saying that, he shook the shoes on his feet and smiled smugly.

Feng Chuan ignored these and asked the old man, did he pick up a claw recently? The old man heard it clearly, and nodded and said that it was indeed the case. The old woman on the side complained, "This dead old man, go out and pick up everything, did you lose it?" ”

Yuan Han looked at the old woman and comforted her not to worry, the two of them came without malicious intent, they just needed to investigate some things, that head might be useful, if they could buy it with a lot of silver.

The old woman was quite reasonable, "No, no, this thing was picked up, and you can return it." ”

The old man turned around and looked through the fish frame, and found a dilapidated head from behind a four-legged wooden stool, the rattan grass inside was exposed, and the tulle was scattered outside.

Yuan Han stretched out his head and looked at the size, it was indeed his brother's.

"Uncle, did you see any strange people before you picked up the head that day?"

The old man stretched out his head and listened carefully, waved his hand, and then remembered something, "Oh, I didn't see anything when I picked up the head, but I walked for a while, and suddenly remembered that my bait fell in the river in the stream, and I wanted to go back to get it, but when I got there, I saw two people arguing, you know, I was deaf, I couldn't hear anything, I thought about it for some bait, it was not worth it, so I left." ”

Feng Chuan thought about it, after picking up the head, someone fought, so it must not be Yuan Wu, because Yuan Wu fell off the head after being killed, so what would these two people quarrel about?

The old man thought about it and sighed, the eldest son of the Gao family was not angry, and even a beggar had to be embarrassed, he couldn't hear the conversation between the two clearly, but when he saw the beggar shaking his head, the eldest son of the Gao family kept shaking the other party, and finally punched the beggar.

The old man's teeth are not complete, and he said in a non-standard pronunciation: "Make ~ sin ~ ah!" ”

The aunt said that when she saw a person dragging Yuan Wu away, the old man picked up the head, and the old man went back and saw a person beating a beggar. Feng Chuan boldly guessed that if a person killed Yuan Wu, he was afraid of being discovered, and remembered that the head fell by the river, and went back to get it, but then he found that the head was gone, and he was meeting a beggar, and he suspected that she had picked up the head, so things were completely logical.

"Did you think of something?"

Yuan Han saw a cold light in Feng Chuan's eyes, and thought that she had also found something. After asking, Feng Chuan only nodded, and he understood. The two took away the heads, but the old man did not ask for the silver, and personally sent them to the door.

"Uncle is really a good man." Feng Chuan admired.

Yuan Han remembered Feng Chuan's eyes just now, "By the way, you haven't answered my question just now?" ”

He looked at Feng Chuan, and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was extremely beautiful, and because of this man's body, if his daughter was a daughter, she would definitely be able to marry a good family.

Feng Chuan hurriedly lowered his head, realizing that something was wrong, "Oh, I did find a problem just now." Then Feng Chuanzai carefully explained his analysis, Yuan Han nodded, and smiled: "According to your analysis, the eldest son of the Gao family is likely to be the one who killed his brother." ”
