For a time, the scene in front of the salt mill could be described as extremely chaotic.

Tong Ningxin's exclamation caused everyone nearby to turn their heads to watch, centering on the salted stagnant water, forming a circle with a radius of more than ten feet. Closer, people don't dare; If you stay away, people are reluctant. That's poisoning, since the drought, the people of Qian County are tired, when did such a big news come out? Moreover, it is also a government-run salt mill, and they will eat dead people by accident, which makes them believe in official salt in the future?

Therefore, I have to find out today, and I have to check carefully when I go back, whether my official salt is also poisonous, official salt is poisonous, and eating the dead will not pay for your life!

So the people pushed and shoved each other and watched, neither daring to come closer, for fear that the poison would poison them; He didn't dare to go far, lest he not see the culprit of the poisoning case.

Ah Chou first pushed Tong Ningxin, who was scared out of his body: "You hurry up and go to the yamen to report to the official." ”

Tong Ningxin was in a cold sweat, trembled, and hurriedly responded: "Okay, I'll go now, ugly, be careful." ”

"Don't worry, with so many neighbors watching, I'll be fine." Ah Chou calmed down, his tone was calm, and he carefully analyzed every scene just now in his heart.

Hua Liuli did not harm her original intention, but was suspected of saving her. Hua Liuli's role in this matter is nothing more than two possibilities: first, she saw that others wanted to poison her, so she used this method to debunk it. If you say it directly, it will not have such a big mass effect; With facts in this way, it attracted everyone's attention and exposed her to everyone's eyes, so it would be difficult for someone to think about it again.

The second possibility is that Hua Liuli used himself to frame official salt. After all, that bag of salt. It's been a few turns in his hand!

Another suspect is the Yanfang guy.

will retract thoughts. I saw the salt official of the salt mill hurriedly running out: "What's the matter?" Qiu San, you make it clear. I heard in the backyard that the salt was poisonous, how could that be! ”

The salt official had a bearded face, his eyebrows flew high, and his speech was a little slurred, perhaps because of his crooked teeth.

Ah Chou shook his head disapplauded: "Everyone saw it just now, this salt is indeed problematic." ”

"Nonsense! How can there be a problem with official salt, our salt is up to the emperor's relatives. When I went down to the people of Limin, they all ate the same food. If I do things in official salt, I still have to die! "The salt official is righteous.

Ugly pouted: She didn't believe that the salt eaten by the emperor's relatives and the people of Liming was the same. The kind of salt she buys on weekdays can't be considered coarse salt, but it's not fine. Will the royal relatives eat the same salt as them?

Guy Qiu San also spoke: "That's it, I don't just sell you, poison so many people, how can I have the guts!" His brow furrowed. There was anger in his eyes, and he looked a little hideous.

Ah Chou spread his hands: "Since you are sure that there is no problem with salt, how did this sparrow die?" "That pool of water is not small. If you pour three or two salts, it will not be very thick salt water. What's more, the sparrow's foot in the water seems to be a little abnormal.

"This must be this one." Qiu San pointed to Hua Liuli on the side, "This person has been carrying salt packets and tossing around." Surely he was doing something in the salt at that time! ”

Hua Liuli cried out: "Slander, who saw me poisoned." What is my chance of being poisoned? When I was holding the salt packet, my every move was under your noses, how could I have a chance? ”

Ah Chou looked at Hua Liuli, and saw that his expression was still in place, but he inadvertently glanced at her. She frowned slightly: I don't think I'm a person who observes words and feelings, and I don't know how to read minds, and I don't have anything to do with this Hua Liu. What does this look mean?

was in a stalemate, and the grass catcher on the wall came: "Calm and quiet, everyone retreat!" With a knife in his hand, his voice was majestic, and he split a wide hole in the crowd of onlookers.

"My lord, this is it." Tong Ningxin walked beside the head catcher and pointed to the pool of stagnant water.

The head catcher swept his eyes twice, and shook his head at the rear of his hand: "You took this thing, what are the results." Then he walked to the salt mill.

"Ugly girl, is there anything wrong with the girl?" The face of the grass on the wall immediately became flattering, and he bowed his head and bowed to Ah Chou.

Ah Chou took a step back and hurriedly waved his hand: "I have nothing to do, the adults have tormented me, I dare not take this gift properly." The first head was still worried: The reason why the head catcher looked down on herself was because of Xu Tai, but now that she has offended the fourth prince, what will be the consequences? But now she is a little relieved, and it doesn't seem to have much impact. This head catcher, bullying the good and fearing the evil, bullying the weak, should not be a person who can be false and wronged.

The head catcher straightened up and said to Qiu San: "How can the government-run salt mill be poisonous? You are not allowed to move, but go back and stand over there, and I will check it myself. ”

This salt official is only a petty official, with a low grade and little power. Head-catching is different, the one with a knife on his body will arrest you if you don't like it, and he can't afford to be guilty. So they all nodded in agreement, stepped aside and stood with their hands down.

Hua Liuli stood by the wall, stained with water droplets on the column, and seemed to be drawing something on the gray wall. Ah Chou looked at his eyes, and he didn't understand it yet, so now he must come to see what he has drawn-

A chicken, and a monkey.

Ah Chou stood not far away and glanced at these two things.

Chickens, monkeys. Punish someone as a warning to others?

She was a little confused: was the person who poisoned her killing chickens and monkeys, or did Hua Liuli want her to kill chickens and monkeys?

The wall grass led his men to inspect it, and the result was that the stagnant water was indeed poisonous, but the salt in the salt mill was not at all, and it was all safe.

"Is there a problem with the paper wrapped in salt?" Ugly suggested another direction.

The wall grass took out the paper wrapped in salt in the salt mill, checked it, and shook his head a little puzzled: "Non-toxic." ”

Several people fell into a mystery, and for a moment they had no thoughts: in this case, where did the poison come from?

And the onlookers also breathed a sigh of relief: the things in the salt mill are non-toxic, fortunately, otherwise everyone will not suffer if they eat official salt!

"Huh," Ugly said as he stared at the pile of paper, puzzled, "How do I feel that the color of this pile of paper is different from the paper that packs salt just now?" ”

The catchers hurriedly took the paper on the side of the stagnant water and came out to check: "That's true, this paper has been specially treated and soaked in highly poisonous!" ”

Everyone gasped. The suspicious eyes all turned to the guy Qiu San - Fang is Qiu Sanbao's salt, and he is the most suspicious.

Qiu San felt all kinds of eyes around him. Some eagerly defended themselves, frowning and frightened: "It's not me. Not me, I didn't do anything! That boy just now took the salt bag and took it for a long time, he must have poisoned the paper! ”

At this time, everyone invariably turned their eyes to Hua Liuli again, and became more and more puzzled: Who are these two people?

After carefully studying the piece of paper, a catcher shook his head: "It won't be that child, this piece of paper has been specially treated, and the poison must slowly penetrate into it." That boy didn't have that kind of time. ”

As soon as the wall grass heard this, his fierce gaze immediately locked on Qiu San: "Search his body for me!" ”

Qiu Sanyi gritted his teeth, and when Ah Chou saw that the situation was not good, he hurriedly shouted: "He wants to kill himself!" ”

The catcher rushed up, but he was still a step too late, and Qiu San committed suicide by swallowing poison. On him, several pieces of paper soaked in poison were found.

"The guys in the government-run salt mill are so sinister!"

"yes, it's vicious. It's good that it was found early, otherwise wouldn't it be fatal? ”

"So, I don't dare to come here to buy salt in the future, a fellow is so ill-intentioned. Who else can I trust? ”

The people were a little frightened.

The wall grass cleared his throat: "Silence, silence! This case is up to the prefect to decide. The Salt Mill will conduct a thorough investigation to prevent this from happening again. Salt in your house. If there is any problem with eating, you should also report to the yamen as soon as possible. Okay, let's disperse, let's disperse! ”

Pedestrians on the street sighed and left. Ah Chou sighed lightly and glanced at Hua Liuli as if nothing had happened. Raised his steps and walked over: "Dude, I'm very suspicious, how do you know that Qiu San will be poisoned?" Her voice was a little hoarse, very low, but she wanted to pierce people's hearts with a thorn, and a burst of blood pierced people's hearts.

"Hua naturally has the ability of Hua. I am an actor and a person who runs the rivers and lakes. How can you not have this eyesight. The paper used is different, and I can see it when he wraps the salt. Hua Liuli's voice was indifferent.

Ah Chou glanced at him meaningfully, obviously not fully convinced: "Really? Dude is really good eyesight, ugly, admire! The word "admiration" is very profound and incomprehensible.

Hua Liuli didn't seem to hear it: "However, I still have to apologize for robbing you of your salt." But if you don't rob it, you will also be a suspect once you run into a paper bag. ”

"Playboy is really calculating. Kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, then, am I killed and made an example of monkeys, or am I ......" Ugly asked.

"Naturally." Hua Liuli said very frankly.

Ugly chuckled: "Thank you dude for saving Ugly's life today." But Ah Ugly is very suspicious, who wants my cheap life? Is it worth so much? ”

"Say you are wise, and you are wise; Call you stupid, you're stupid too. If you die, your life will be worthless. Your life is only worth as long as you live. Also, you're a monkey. After Hua Liuli finished speaking, she opened the folding fan and left.

"Ugly girl, the salt mill will give the girl two catties of salt for free, and this salt is safe." The salt official smiled while carrying two bundles of salt and handed them over, his already long face pulled down more and more, and he could fish.

Ah Chou's gaze was withdrawn from Hua Liuli, who was gradually moving away, and he turned his head lightly and glanced at the two large bags of salt, and couldn't help but sneer: "What do I want so much salt for?" Thinking about it, the wall grass had already explained his origin to the salt official, so the salt official knew that he wanted to please her. After all, now that something has happened to his salt mill, no one is sure what kind of responsibility he will bear. If he doesn't judge the situation and catch up with important people, Da Luo Jinxian can't save him.

"Be prepared, be prepared!" The salt officer smiled flatteringly.

Ah Chou sighed, took two packets of salt, looked at the sunshine after the rain overflowed in the sky, and thoughtfully: kill chickens and make an example of monkeys. Chickens, who killed them? (To be continued......)
