In the afternoon, Xue Rui first went to Dali Temple to report the case, while Yu Shu stayed in the Wangji Building, holding Cao Youling's birthday eight characters to study.

Her law of calamity is different from ordinary easy techniques, even if a person dies and lives to the end of his life, he can still calculate the calamities that this person has experienced in his life from the number of lives that Bazi has in this life.

It didn't take much time for Yu Shu to calculate a series of disasters from the calamities a few days before Cao Youling was killed, and as expected, the results of the calculation were not much wrong with her previous guess-

Cao Youling was the first to commit the Peach Blossom Tribulation and was remembered by the villain, so he suffered an unwarranted disaster, so that he was killed and was not spared.

"Committing peach blossoms" and "committing villains" are both a kind of **, among the examples of disasters collected by Yu Shu, they are relatively common, and it is usually not life-threatening to encounter one alone, but when disasters meet with disasters, it is easy to cause a dead end.

It is not difficult to guess that this "peach blossom" was caused by Jing Chen, which explains why she sneaked to the stargazing platform in the middle of the night to make an appointment because of a note imitating Jing Chen's handwriting.

And that "villain" should have discovered Cao Youling's thoughts about Jingchen, so he made good use of it and lured him with a note.

This was the first time that Yu Shu applied the law of calamity to a dead person, and the results were better than she expected, because she not only deduced the entire process of her murder from Cao Youling's calamity, but also had a crucial "conclusion", that is, what had previously made Xue Rui and her unsure - the murderer's purpose was indeed Jingchen.

Just as Yu Shu was pondering because of this conclusion, a crisp message from the maidservant Fluttershy sounded outside the door:

"Girl, my son is back, please go downstairs to eat."

"Zhilu said, I'll go down later."

Yu Shu folded a few pieces of paper on the table and put them into his sleeves, washed the charcoal ink on his hands, and went downstairs to find Xue Rui.

At this time, it was dark, and there were lights and candles in the downstairs room, and Yu Shu walked in the door. Xue Rui had just changed his clothes and walked out of the inner room with his sleeves straightened.

"Big brother."

"Sit down."

As soon as he sat down, Xue Rui asked, "I heard that you stayed in the room for an afternoon, did you figure out anything from Miss Cao's eight characters?" ”

Yu Shu nodded and said, "I was about to talk to you." ”

Xue Rui originally asked casually. How do you think that she really has something to gain, knowing that she will not be untargeted, curiosity was aroused again, looked at her slightly tired face, but did not rush to ask, but said:

"Eat first, and we'll talk about it later."

"Hmm."

Meals are well arranged. These meals are mainly light, although Yu Shu has no appetite, he still eats seven points full, and he can't get along with his body.

After the meal, Xue Rui asked the attendant to tidy up the study next door, put the tea table and fragrant fruit plate, and moved over to talk with Yu Shu.

The two sat on a couch. There was a carved lacquer square table in the middle, Xue Rui pressed one arm on the table, and poured tea with the other. A small sip of the flower and bird cup, brewing a white tea, he squinted and sniffed lightly, put two fingers in front of her, and asked:

"What did you find?"

Yu Shu put his hand on the slightly hot cup, and said while wording: "I'm sure that Miss Cao died innocently, and the murderer actually went to Jingchen, and he would choose her as a target." is also because she admires Jing Chen, which is convenient for him to use. ”

Xue Rui heard her words and came to a conclusion, and couldn't help but ask: "How can you see it?" ”

Yu Shu raised her head and looked at him with two eyes, and there was trust in her eyes that she didn't even notice: "Actually, I know a kind of thaumaturgy. can calculate the birth date of the deceased and know some things about their life. ”

Xue Rui is a well-informed person, hearing Yu Shu's claim, his face immediately showed surprise, yesterday they talked about Yin and Yang Wonders, and laughed nonsense, but today she told him in a convincing manner that she can count the eight characters of the dead, for him, an official who deals with the dead all day long, it is tantamount to a thunderclap on the ground, and it is difficult to speak for a while.

Yu Shu thought that Xue Rui didn't believe it, and in order to prove that what she said was true, he put down the teacup, got up and walked to the desk to stand still, took off a pen, drew a paper and turned back to him and said:

"Big brother has a lot of homicides on weekdays, I often read the file, there must be a few cases that are still fresh in my memory, whether it is a murder or an accident, you might as well say that there is a dead person, you will tell me the birth date of the deceased, and the day of death, I can immediately deduce why this person died."

Xue Rui didn't actually doubt Yu Shu's ability, but what she said was unheard of, which really surprised him, and he reported a deceased person's eight characters to her in disbelief.

"There is a deceased, and his birth is on"

He looked at Yu Shu on his side, writing and calculating on the paper, without saying a word, but his mood was rarely nervous, about a cup of tea, suddenly saw Yu Shu stop writing, he couldn't help but sit up straight.

"If the eight characters are correct, this person was not killed by him, he should have drowned himself, either falling into the lake and the river, or jumping into the well."

Yu Shu turned his head, looked at Xue Rui with a dumbfounded look, couldn't help laughing, then winked at him, and asked knowingly:

"Am I right?"

Xue Rui was dumbfounded for a while, and said in a deep voice: "You count again, there is a deceased who died around the fifth ugly hour of the first month of July last year, and his birthday is"

Yu Shu pursed his lips, picked up the pen and counted again, and after another cup of tea, he said: "This person lost his life for money, was murdered, and the blood was so bright that he should be killed with a sharp weapon." ”

Such an accurate speculation, once it can be said to be a coincidence, twice is unbelievable, Xue Rui gasped, looked at Yu Shu, who was at ease, the surprise on his face slowly receded, and turned into contemplation.

Yu Shu casually painted the manuscript on the table, threw away the pen, walked back to sit down next to him, drank the cup of cold tea in one gulp, leaned sideways on the coffee table, lined his head with one hand, and looked at him with a smile:

"This is a letter?"

Seeing her show her hand, Xue Rui couldn't help but be unconvinced: "I've long been curious, who is the master who taught you skills?" ”

His experience with Yu Shu Xueyi was not that he didn't want to know about it, but she was very vigilant and seemed to be secretive about it, and he was afraid of causing her to be vigilant, so he didn't dare to ask more.

"I'm also curious about where he is sacred," Yu Shu muttered in a low voice, the origin of Qing Zheng Daoist has always been a mystery, although her law of calamity is set by her own karma, but the foundation is based on the set of magical mantras taught to her by Qing Zheng Daoist, in other words, if she hadn't met Qing Zheng, she would not have been where she is today, and she can't forget her roots.

"What did you say?" Xue Rui didn't hear her talking to herself.

Yu Shu shook his head, and didn't want to use the trick of bluffing Liu Yi to perfunctory Xue Rui, so he told people about Qing Zheng for the first time:

"You will be curious and inevitable, I am from a background like this, my qualifications are poor, and my life is not good, if I hadn't met Master and his old man in Yiyang City, I wouldn't know where to survive now. It's a pity that he is incognito, and what he told me is also a pseudonym, and I am not allowed to mention his affairs to others, we are still scattered in Yiyang City, and the master has traveled far away, and I don't know where to go, I can't tell you about him. ”

Xue Rui was able to hear her talk about this experience, it was already an unexpected joy, how could he ask too much, seeing that she was sullen, this thoughtfully changed the topic:

"It's just that I can't tell you clearly, didn't I talk about the murder in the library just now, you continue."

Yu Shu turned his mind back, put down his hand and sat upright, and said: "As I said before, the murderer's purpose is in Jingchen, so he chose a female student who has a love for him, Miss Cao was plotted by the villain, because of that note, she went to the appointment, according to this inference, regardless of who the man who strangled Miss Cao who knew martial arts, but the person who passed the note to her, I am sure it is a person from Taishi Shuyuan, first, I have seen Miss Cao's face, and second, I have to see her thoughts about Jingchen——"

Speaking of this, she suddenly lowered her voice:

"Miss Cao is this year's new academy student, Jing Chen is this year's new academician, the two have only met a few times, indulge in peach blossoms, only in these few days, those who can have such an eye to perceive are nothing more than people who are proficient in physiognomy!"

Xue Rui's face sank, his eyes became sharp in an instant, and the candidate in his heart was already clear.

"Is that her?"

Yu Shu played with the flower and bird cup, and smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth: "Big brother, you might as well go to check it tomorrow, and worship more than 30 students from our Daozi Entry, among the people who study astrology with Miss Cao, there are a few people who have the ability to 'look at faces and know their hearts'." ”

It's the fox that always shows its tail, and she likes to do this kind of tail-pulling thing.

***

Xue Rui was dialed by Yu Shu, and went to the Taishi Book Garden early the next morning, and sent someone to find Jingchen to collect a confession.

At the same time, Yu Shu was carrying two tubes of good tea, inquiring about the place where Academician Fang was lecturing in the inner courtyard, and he had to get the entry done before the set of pink regular clothes was distributed, so that he could concentrate on what was going to happen next.

Yu Shu found all the way to the east side of the garden, walked across the small bridge and flowing water, suddenly heard the sound of the piano, and saw a pine tree in the distance, there were more than a dozen blankets, there were no empty seats, there were men and women, all sitting there quietly, listening to a gray-clothed old man playing the piano under the tree.

The sound of this piano is very vigorous, it can't be said to be good or bad, Yu Shu just thinks it's not unpleasant.

Knowing that the old man was Fang Zijing, Yu Shu didn't want to interrupt the sound of the piano, so he stood at the head of the bridge and waited for him to fall, who knew that the sound of the piano would be one after another, and he was stunned for a long time and did not stop.

Seeing this, Yu Shu's legs were tired, he turned his head to look around, then retreated to the bridge pier, stroked the ashes with his sleeve, and sat down.

"Zheng!"

The sound of the harp came to an abrupt halt as soon as she had sat down, and she looked suspiciously under the tree, and saw the old man standing up at some point, with his wide sleeves, pointing to the side of the bridge, and shouting with great vigour:

"Wu Na Xiao'er, come here!"

Yu Shu was left and right, knowing that he was calling himself, although he was inexplicable, he still stood up honestly, patted his buttocks, and trotted over. (To be continued.)
