Chapter 134: The Little Cloth Scroll
After the three of Zhan Yan went down the mountain and returned to the temple, they asked the two officials who had returned the iron money back to the temple to guard the vegetable garden. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhan Yan said: "You just have to guard, it's best if no one is okay, if someone ...... Don't fight hard, one person copes, and one person immediately goes to the entrance and exit of the front path leading to the back mountain to inform the other two! β
There were also two servants there, and with the two of them, there were four.
Although the four of them are still a little invincible against the vicious murderer, they at least have one more point of certainty to control the murderer.
Obviously, the two officials also misunderstood the meaning of Zhanyan, so Zhanyan had to say again:
"After finding them, one of you hurried to the temple to inform us, and the other two hurried back to the vegetable field, and the three of you worked together to try to hold off the murderer! Remember, you can only hold on, not fight! β
The officials didn't understand, and some thought that Zhanyan underestimated them, and one of them couldn't help but say:
"Don't worry! Although our skills are not as good as those of the head catcher, it is still more than enough for the three of us to catch a murderer! β
The other immediately chimed in: "That's it! Please rest assured! β
The two of them patted their chests and assured, and their tones were deliberately flattering, they should want to show their ability in front of Zhanyan, and then get another look at Zhanyan, but unfortunately the two didn't understand the meaning of Zhanyan at all, let alone understand the thorniness of the Qianguang Temple case and the murderer's murder.
The murderer can not only return to the temple as if he was in a no-man's land when the Qianguang Temple is completely closed, which is enough to show that the murderer's light skills are absolutely good, no matter how ordinary his skills are, how can the superb light skills be controlled by three officials with only ordinary skills?
Zhan Yan didn't explain, and he didn't have time to explain, so he said with a cold face:
"It's about delaying, not bumping head-on, you just do what you do!"
The two officials couldn't please him, but instead suffered the frost on their faces, and both of them couldn't hold back on their faces, so they replied in a curtive manner, bowed their heads and turned around and wanted to rush to the vegetable garden.
Yin Seventeen really couldn't stand it, and explained for Zhanyan:
"Brother Zhan is also afraid that the two of them are in danger, after all, the murderer has killed three people, and the death penalty is inevitable, and it is not impossible to kill one and a half desperately, although the two big brothers are good, but they don't have to fight with the murderer with their lives, we must catch the murderer, and at the same time try our best to avoid casualties!"
When the two officials heard this, their faces lit up, and they looked at Zhan Yan, seeing that they were still indifferent and didn't plan to speak, but they didn't refute the words of Yin Seventeen, and the two of them couldn't help but happily say to Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen:
"Yes! The head catcher and the yin fast hand are right! β
After the two officials left, Zhan Yan, Yin Seventeen, and Hua Zilai returned to the temple and walked directly to the Zen courtyard of Xuanfa.
Yin Seventeen had seen the meditation room of Xuanfa before, but she ignored one point, now she can be 100% sure that the murderer twenty years later is Jiang Luo, so who is the murderer in the temple twenty years ago?
Yin Seventeen thought that she might be able to find the answer in the Zen room of the Xuanfa and the Enlightenment.
Previously, when she searched in the two-person meditation room, she was rushing to find the murderer who took the two people away, but when she found the Xuanfa meditation room again, Yin Seventeen had already changed the direction of the search.
Zhan Yan saw that Yin Seventeen entered the Xuanfa Zen room, so he went directly to some hidden corners or box drawers in the meditation room that could hide things, and Hua Zi looked at the unknown so, so he wanted to go forward and talk to Yin Seventeen, but taught Zhan Yan to stop:
"Don't go!"
Hua Zilai said: "But we have searched those places before, and we have not found them!" β
Zhan Yan said: "If you don't find it, it doesn't mean that Seventeen won't find it, just wait." β
This is a sour thing to say, what is the meaning of "you didn't find out, it doesn't mean that Seventeen won't find out"?! This is obviously to despise his search ability!
Zhan Yan turned his face away after seeing Hua Zilai listen, obviously a little emotional, and after all, Hua Zilai was not someone else in the yamen, but a brother who accompanied him to live in this small Hongsha County for a long time, he couldn't help but explain:
"Sometimes even I'm not as careful as Seventeen, there are some things we can't see and hear, but Seventeen can always catch it, since I don't underestimate you, but I think Seventeen has searched the Zen room of the Master of Xuanfa and the Master of Enlightenment before, but now I have come to search again, there must be a reason for Seventeen, she ...... It must have come for some purpose! β
Zhan Yan Fang didn't explain to the two officials like this, after listening to Zhan Yan's explanation to him, Hua Zilai naturally understood that it was different in Zhan Yan's heart, and he was a little comfortable at the moment.
I thought of Yin Seventeen when he actually explained to the two officials for Zhan Yan, and even remembered that the two officials looked at Zhan Yan after listening to Yin Seventeen's explanation, no longer only in awe as before, but also with some gratitude and warmth, Hua Zilai couldn't help but think that he had never explained and clarified to anyone for Zhan Yan like Yin Seventeen in the past, so that Zhan Yan has always been an indifferent and almost cold existence in the eyes of outsiders.
Zhan Yan is the famous Zhan Da Catcher in Hongsha County in the eyes of others, although he is powerful, and his appearance is even more handsome, but the deepest impression is that he still rejects people thousands of miles away, and coldly does not allow people to get close, let alone close.
Even the girl who secretly admired Zhanyan never dared to look at him closely, she watched and read from afar, and sometimes even the girl who came with the admiration of flowers, as long as she saw Zhanyan beside her, she didn't dare to step forward and take a step and a half.
Now that I think about it, if he could explain and clarify Zhanyan more than Yin Seventeen did earlier, and let people know that Zhanyan actually has a warm heart for the sake of others under his indifferent appearance, then the girls who love Zhanyan in Hongsha County now will definitely have to multiply several times!
Hua Zilai was thinking wildly in his heart, his eyes followed Zhanyan's words and then looked at Yin Seventeen, seeing that Yin Seventeen was indeed searching in the Xuanfa Meditation Room with a purpose, as Zhan Yan said, he was searching purposefully, he couldn't help but smile and said:
"Brother Zhan doesn't have to explain! I don't have anything to ...... It's just that sometimes I feel that Seventeen really doesn't look like a fast hand who has just entered the Yamen, as Brother Zhan said, Seventeen is more careful than anyone else in terms of detectives, he really has this talent, and his sensitivity in all aspects of detectives is very comparable, I think Seventeen ......"
Halfway through Hua Zi's words, he heard Yin Seventeen standing on a high table and shouting happily:
"Found it!"
Got it?
What was found?
Zhan Yan and the flowers came and immediately approached Yin Seventeen.
Yin Qiqi held the white porcelain vase depicting the pattern of cutting meat and feeding the eagle on the high table in her arms, and she pointed to the belly of the white porcelain vase that was as tall as her arm:
"Stuff is inside!"
Hua Zilai took the white porcelain bottle that Yin Qiqi was holding with both hands, looked into the small bottle mouth, and did see something in the belly of the bottle:
"What's that?"
Yin Seventeen said: "It should be a piece of cloth, but it was deliberately rolled into a roll, like a picture scroll." β
Hearing Yin Seventeen say this, Hua Zilai looked at the mouth of the bottle and into the belly of the bottle again, but he couldn't see clearly what was in the belly of the bottle, as Yin Seventeen said, it was a small roll of cloth.
It's almost cross-eyed, and Hua Zilai can't see it clearly, and he says a little frustratedly:
"How can you be sure it's a small roll of cloth? I can't even see clearly! β
Yin Seventeen smiled and said nothing, but listened to Zhanyan:
"Okay, it's better to take out the contents of the bottle quickly."
Everyone knows this, but how to get it?
The mouth of the white porcelain bottle is too small, even the smallest of the three Yin Seventeen can't reach in, only enough for three fingers to drill through the mouth of the bottle, but the fingers are too short, and they can't reach the contents of the bottle belly.
Although Yin Qiqi didn't quite understand the value of this white porcelain vase, he guessed that this white porcelain vase was worth a lot of money, and he might be one of the many gifts that he had realized to show favor to Xuanfa.
And this white porcelain bottle was placed on the high table next to the bed by the Xuanfa, obviously the Xuanfa is also very fond of it, or perhaps because of the contents of the bottle, the Xuanfa side put the white porcelain bottle at the head of his bed, looking at it day and night, and guarding it all the time.
Just when Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai were looking left and right, trying to find something long enough to hook out the contents of the bottle, Zhan Yan took the white porcelain bottle held by Hua Zilai in both hands, and fell to the ground, and the crisp sound of porcelain splashing in an instant sounded.
Yin Qiqi blinked her eyes twice, thinking back to the moment just now, Zhan Yan's hand was so loose and crisp and without hesitation, she couldn't help but silently press thirty-two likes for Zhan Yan in her heart.
Hua Zilai opened his mouth and closed it quickly, probably although he was a little frightened, but over the years, he was also used to the tough style of showing his face.
Even the two disciples of the temple who were guarding the Xuanfa meditation room with the officials couldn't help but look into the meditation room, and when they saw the broken porcelain pieces under the feet of the three of them, the two disciples in the temple only folded their hands and chanted "Amitabha".
Yin Seventeen guessed that they should be in pain, but it was difficult to say it clearly, so he only silently felt pain in his heart.
As soon as the white porcelain bottle was broken into pieces, the contents of the bottle belly were naturally visible.
The three of them looked at it together, and sure enough, as Yin Seventeen said, it was a small piece of cloth roll!
It's just that the scroll is obviously very old, and it is a little yellowed, and some dust has accumulated.
Zhan Yan squatted down, took the rolled cloth roll in his hand, patted the dust on the outermost layer of the cloth roll twice, and then stood up and slowly spread out the cloth roll.
The cloth roll is not large, and it is only the size of a yin seventeen palms when fully spread out, so it is even smaller when it is rolled into a roll, and it is negligible to be hidden in the belly of a bottle that is at least ten times its size, if it is not for her sharp eyes, it is really difficult to teach people to notice.
Earlier, Yin Seventeen was looking for traces of the Xuanfa, and he didn't think to go to a place like a bottle where he could hide or hold small things, so he didn't find this small piece of cloth scroll.
If she had thought about it earlier, she would have discovered it earlier, maybe it would have been a different situation now.
Without thinking about what to do, Zhan Yan had already handed the spread cloth scroll to Yin Seventeen, and let Yin Seventeen look at it:
"Is this a portrait? Whose portrait? β
What Yin Seventeen asked was exactly what Zhan Yan and Hua Zilai wanted to know.
Zhan Yan asked one of the officials guarding outside the Xuanfa Zen room to find Jiang Jingtian and the others.
When Jiang Jingtian and the three of them came from the guest courtyard to the Xitang Courtyard, and entered the meditation room of the Xuanfa Zen Academy, Zhanyan handed over the small cloth scroll in his hand to Jiang Jingtian to see, even though the cloth scroll had faded and blurred due to the age, he still recognized it at a glance, and he said excitedly:
"It's ...... Aunt! β
Shopkeeper Zhao and Hongyao stood on both sides of Jiang Jingtian's side on left and right, Hongyao didn't have much impression of Jiang Long'er, so although he was familiar with the name of Jiang Long'er, the young lady of the Jiang family, but he didn't recognize Jiang Long'er's appearance, but Zhao's shopkeeper was different.
Almost at the same time that Jiang Jingtian spread out the small cloth scroll to take a closer look, the shopkeeper Zhao had already recognized who the portrait in the small cloth scroll was!
Shopkeeper Zhao was also very excited: "Miss! This is Miss! β
Listening to Jiang Jingtian shouting "Auntie", and hearing the shopkeeper Zhao say "Miss" twice, Zhanyan, Yin Seventeen, Hua Zilai and the unknown red medicine all understood, and the portrait in the daring little cloth scroll was Jiang Long'er!
Hua Zilai was surprised: "Could it be that the Xuanfa is Jiang Luo?" β
Everyone present thought so.
Hua Zilai summoned the disciples in the temple who were guarding outside the Xuanfa meditation room and asked the age of Xuanfa, and after asking, it was very consistent with Jiang Luo's age.
Everyone was shocked, and everyone was silent.
When the disciples in the temple were about to leave the meditation room, Yin Qiqi stopped him and asked:
"I don't know how old the master is?"
The disciple in the temple replied: "Like the master of Xuanfa, they are all just over and not confused. β
If Jiang Luo is really alive, it is also just past the age of not being confused, whether it is the occult law or the age of enlightenment, it is in line with Jiang Luo, which makes Yin Seventeen have uncertain thoughts in his heart.
The others didn't understand why Yin Seventeen had specifically asked about the age of enlightenment, but Zhan Yan thought of something from her move, and couldn't help frowning slightly and thinking about it.
As soon as Jiang Jingtian and Zhao's shopkeeper saw the portrait of Jiang Long'er in the small cloth scroll, the two of them at the same time thought that Hua Zilai thought of the same thing at the same time, and they both thought that the mystic method was Jiang Luo's greatest possibility.
The red medicine is different, the only person she really cares about in her heart is Jiang Nianlong, and she can't help but ask about Jiang Nianlong's whereabouts one after another.
Under the questioning of Hongyao, Jiang Jingtian and Shopkeeper Zhao also came back to their senses in the shock that the Xuanfa might be Jiang Luo, and hurriedly asked if they had found clues about Jiang Nianlong's whereabouts?
Hua Zilai couldn't see the eager eyes of Jiang Jingtian, Zhao Shopkeeper, and Hongyao, and Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen fell into deep thought, so he had to answer with full authority.
When they learned that the clues to Jiang Nianlong's whereabouts had not yet been found, Jiang Jingtian and Shopkeeper Zhao could not hide their disappointment and sadness, and Hongyao cried directly and quietly.
Hua Zilai comforted Jiang Jingtian and the three of them stood aside, looking at Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen in contemplation, what should they do next?
Yin Seventeen had carefully searched the Xuanfa Zen Room again, this time he didn't even let go of the gaps, but he turned it upside down, and only found a small piece of cloth in the white porcelain bottle, and nothing else was found.
Zhan Yan asked, "Seventeen, what are you looking for?" β
