Chapter 138: Overnight at the Inn

As soon as these words came out, it was like a heavenly sound in everyone's ears. If there is no article about poisoning people, then the Li brothers' crimes will not be punished much, and maybe they will be able to come out by paying some money.

"Come on." Ji Changfeng got up and said.

Nie Tianxi smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry, this matter is also simple. I don't know what kind of poison this can be detected? ”

He replied: "According to the old man's inference, this is the poison of arsenic. ”

Nie Tianxi nodded and said, "That's true." The students also saw some arsenic powder at the collar of the old man's coat, which shows how rampant the perpetrators are, and they actually force people to eat arsenic under the bright sun. However, he forgot the most important point....... ”

"What is it?" Everyone asked, and even the Li brothers, who couldn't move on the side, looked at him with wide eyes.

"That is, the poison of arsenic is still on the hands of the poisoner!"

Nie Tianxi looked at the unknown crowd and said loudly: "The poison of arsenic is colorless and tasteless, if it is pure, it is white powder, and if it is not pure, there are red and reddish yellow things on it." The deceased was ingested impure arsenic, and the amount was extremely large, so the silver needle test could only appear black. But when the deceased is given arsenic, the person who takes the arsenic must have arsenic on his hands. ”

"So what?" Excuse me to ask first.

Nie Tianxi came to the pillar and asked, "Did Li Laohan resist when he was forced to submit to arsenic by them?" ”

Zhu Ziniang said: "Yes! Why not, but they kicked me and the pillar so that they couldn't get up, and the two of them just pressed my father and poured it into his mouth. ”

"yes, I see." Nie Tianxi whetted everyone's appetite, pacing back and forth without explaining the reason.

Everyone present was anxious, but Nie Shuyao smiled slightly, her younger brother is also very talented in acting!

In the end, even the Li brothers couldn't help but ask, "What is it?" ”

Nie Tianxi grinned at this time, the time had come.

"Actually, it's nothing. Even since the poison of this arsenic is colorless and odorless, even if it is on the hands, it cannot be seen or smelled. But if you don't wash your hands. Just lick your fingers, what do you think will happen? Finally, he asked a rhetorical question.

I didn't know that arsenic was still like this, and was frowning and thinking about it.

Song Yunfei also thought for a while. When I looked up and saw Nie Tianxi smiling, I suddenly understood in my heart.

When he was about to say something terrifying, Feng Wuya preemptively said: "Of course, it's the same as being hit by arsenic, foaming at the mouth, bleeding from the ears and nose, and even the bones are black after death." ”

Nie Tianxi clapped his hands and immediately nodded, "That's it." My lord. ”

He arched his hand at Ji Changfeng and said, "Please give the order for the Li brothers to lick their ten fingers clean." Students think. There was no water source here, and it was impossible for the two men to wash their hands. When they administered poison to Li Laohan, they must have arsenic on their hands. If it is after licking. Half an hour before they died, which means that they are innocent; If he dies, it can be regarded as Li Laohan's fate, and it is cost-effective to do them, isn't it? ”

"That's true. My lord, give the order! Song Yunfei also said.

Ji Changfeng doesn't know if this is true, but he can also give it a try. What's more, this son also said so, you have to give him some face.

So he said loudly: "This is how it will be done." Listen to the order! ”

"The subordinates are here!" Two people came out and caught fast.

The Li brothers were pale with fright, their hands were tied with ropes, but they were terrified in their hearts, could it be that arsenic was really like this? I knew that this would not allow the old guy to eat.

The reason why they gave Li Laohan arsenic was because they disliked him as an eyesore. It's not like pretending to be dead. Then let him die; The second is to do an experiment to see if this thing is really that useful. This was given to them by an unkempt down-and-out Taoist priest. For this, he also defrauded them of half a tael of silver, but he gave them nearly a pound of arsenic.

When the catcher came to them to untie the rope on their hands, Li Erneng couldn't stand it at first, and shouted: "I said, I said, it was the eldest brother who forced the old guy to eat first, but we didn't know that it was arsenic." ”

Li Daneng scolded: "You bastard, I'm your big brother!" But, my lord, don't let us lick our hands, we confess our sins. ”

Nie Tianxi and Song Yunfei laughed, and Feng Wuya also showed joy on his face, he finally got out of this case.

After listening to the confession of the Li brothers, Ji Changfeng said: "Let them draw a charge!" ”

The busy clerk hurriedly wrote the confession and handed it over, and after the painting was over, it was not early, and the sunset was shining.

Ji Changfeng felt that it was time to pronounce the verdict, and to try the case on the side of the road, it was exciting to think about it, presumably if this case file was handed over, the boss would also be impressed by him.

"Ahem! The Lee brothers listened to the verdict. He cleared his throat and said loudly.

At this moment, another group of people ran from a distance, shouting equally loudly: "My lord, my lord! Please let the adults be the masters of our small people! ”

Ji Changfeng frowned, what is the situation.

There were nearly 20 men and women, the men were tall and tall, and the women were crying like peaches.

Zhu Ziniang was looking for her daughter in the crowd, and when she saw the thin figure in the crowd, the mother hugged each other and cried.

"My lord, this is my daughter, she was robbed by Li Daneng, saying that if she doesn't pay back today, she will sell it in the kiln tomorrow. I ask you to make decisions for us, and we have paid off our debts. ”

Immediately after that, the people once again stated their grievances, so that the sun went down before they made it clear.

The Li brothers were completely paralyzed to the ground, they have been doing this in recent years, and it is fine, but today they did not expect to be planted in the hands of a few scholars. Especially Feng Wuya, if he obediently pays the money and leaves, can there be these things?

The eyes of the two brothers seemed to poke Feng Wuya into a hole, they didn't dare to look at Nie Tianxi and Song Yunfei, knowing that they were people with a backstage, just looking at the beautiful carriage and two retinues with excellent kung fu, so they sent all their anger to Feng Wuya.

But although Feng Wuya looked like a beautiful scholar with no power, he didn't take these things seriously. Instead, he arched his hand at the county magistrate and said: "Please uphold justice for the small people, please pronounce the sentence!" ”

Ji Changfeng smiled at him, this sentence can be regarded as relieving him, and said: "Today, this county will pronounce a verdict on this official road in Lijiazhuang, so as to correct the law of the Ming Dynasty and return justice to the people." ”

The audience was silent. The sun has finally set.

"Li Daneng robbed the people's daughters and gave usury and poisoned Li Laohan, and he also ran into ...... on the official road Touching porcelain, several crimes will be punished. The sentence of hanging will be carried out after the approval of the above! ”

"Ahh Li Daneng collapsed to the ground when he heard the verdict, and his family members cried and grabbed the ground.

"Silence!" One Catcher shouted.

The scene quieted down again, and Ji Changfeng announced the verdict again: "Accomplice Li Erneng will be assigned to the army for 20 years!" ”

This penalty is not insignificant, needless to say, the strangulation. The confiscation of the army is tantamount to a death sentence. But if the family is willing to spend money, they may be able to come back alive.

Ji Changfeng was also ruthless, first, seeing that these people were really pitiful, it was feasible to pronounce such a sentence in terms of law. If the people preach it everywhere again. His official career will be smooth.

"Escort the criminals back to the county office!"

Ji Changfeng waved his hand and took the Li brothers away, but fortunately, the Li brothers did not cry out for injustice. In front of so many people, they didn't dare to shout grievances, for fear of causing heavy anger and being beaten to death, didn't they see that the eyes of those parents who had just found their daughters were red?

To appease the people of Lijiazhuang, and explain that anyone who has borrowed usury from the Li brothers can take the IOU to the county government for the record. He Ji Changfeng planned to investigate this matter in detail.

After everyone watched the people of Lijiazhuang carry Li Laohan's body back, the county magistrate's carriage opened the road in front, and everyone's vehicle began to move slowly.

Nie Tianxi's carriage walked ahead. followed by Feng Wuya, Xie Yousheng's car, and then Nie Shuyao's carriage, and so on.

Nie Shuyao also heard the last scholar in the car shouting, he must get to know Nie Tianxi and the others.

She sat in the car with the corners of her mouth crooked, and from today's case, she saw the growth of her younger brother, and believed that it would not be long before he could be on his own.

When a motorcade of wagons passed through the grove. It was already dark. Even if it is a turn to Feng County, the time is not in a hurry.

Ji Changfeng got out of the carriage and said to everyone, "This case has delayed your trip." Why don't you stay overnight at the Ruyi Inn more than ten miles ahead tonight? ”

Nie Tianxi didn't care, and it didn't take long for Yuqin to come over and say that the young lady agreed to stay at the inn first.

Later, other vehicles also sent people back and forth, willing to obey the county master's arrangement.

After soliciting opinions, Ji Changfeng said again: "It's getting dark, it's not easy to walk in these ten miles, I don't know if you have a way?" ”

He didn't have many people, except for the two headhunters riding horses, there were three cars, he occupied one, and took the Li brothers with him, feeling that he couldn't go fast.

Nie Tianxi said: "It's better for me and my sister's carriage to go first, our carriage has lights and can guide you the way." ”

"Oh? Then there is labor. Ji Changfeng knew that this person was either rich or expensive when he looked at their carriage, and he was in the same car with that son, so his attitude towards him was quite good.

Yuqin was still here, and when she heard this, she trotted over to report back to Nie Shuyao.

Nie Shuyao felt that this was also a propaganda for his own carriage, so he asked Wu Niang to take out four kerosene lamps and light them and hang them on the four corners of the car.

Turning the wick to the maximum, it was not easy to burn the thick paper, and it was brighter, so it was deliberately avoided by the other carriages and went to the front of the convoy. And Nie Tianxi's car was in the middle, leading the carriage behind him to the Ruyi Inn.

The four-wheeled carriages with kerosene lamps were so striking that almost at the same time the owners of the carriages had the idea of wanting such a carriage, but fortunately the people had been together for a long time, and they had the opportunity to inquire where it was made.

In the jingle of the carriage, it took half an hour to descend at such an unfast speed before arriving at the Ruyi Inn.

This Ruyi inn is built at the foot of a mountain, which can be said to be a place without a village and a store, occupying a geographical location.

When the carriage came over, the shopkeeper who greeted the customer at the door was so frightened by this momentum that he ran to the store to ask the shopkeeper.

Ji Changfeng changed into civilian clothes in order not to disturb the people, and those catchers also took off the back armor of the catchers outside and wrapped the knives.

Nie Shuyao didn't get out of the car, just looked at the Ruyi Inn in a daze, such a cold inn, a group of people of all shapes came to stay in the middle of the night. How can you live up to this atmosphere if something doesn't happen! She has to take care of the people on her side and save some trouble. (To be continued)
