Xiao Rui felt familiar as soon as he heard about the fourth day of the fourth month of April, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he had no clue when he thought about it carefully, and he didn't expect to get a clue from Sun.

"My lord, the fourth day of April is the birthday of the Black Lotus Sage, and my husband has to leave Songyang County to participate in the pilgrimage on this day every year, but unfortunately last year the court listed the Black Lotus Sect as a traitor, so he didn't dare to go this year." Sun hesitated for a moment, considering that his husband had died tragically, so he did not hide.

After Xiao Rui heard this, he suddenly reacted: "The birthday of the Black Lotus Sect Sage? No wonder, no wonder, I feel familiar, it turns out that the roots are here! ”

Guo Jia arrived in Kyoto late, so he didn't know much about the Black Lotus Sect and the Black Lotus Sage, but he also knew that the Black Lotus Sect was related to Xiao Heding, the rebel night king of the year, and had been ordered by His Majesty to encircle and suppress it.

Xiao Rui's mind sank, the three deceased were related to the Black Lotus Sect, could it be that the murderer was the Black Lotus Sect?

Thinking of the first deceased, Master Yao, the unknown mystery of his family fortune, could it be that it was taught by the Black Lotus?

I remember what the Night King had done, when he was ordained a monk and his Dharma name was true, he no longer asked about the affairs of the Black Lotus Sect, and he was no longer a saint, and everything in the Black Lotus Sect was handled by another saint. When the Black Lotus Sect in Kyoto was uprooted last year, many people were arrested, but the biggest leader, the mysterious sage, had no trace, only knew that it was a woman, and her appearance and age were unknown.

"It's more interesting now."

Xiao Rui not only did not feel that there were many difficulties, but felt more exciting, peeling off its mysterious cloak layer by layer and seeing the truth inside, which is the excellent ability of a detective!

Next, the four of them asked Sun for other details, but unfortunately there were no other clues, so they left the pharmacy and returned to the county office.

At this time, the sun is setting and night is slowly falling.

Wu Biao ordered someone to prepare good food and wine, and asked respectfully: "Master Fa, I don't know what clues can be traced?" ”

Fahai shook his head and sighed: "There is no progress, as Master Wu said, these three murders are strange and terrifying, and there are so many eyewitnesses who prove that they are evil ghosts, hey... But this cannot be used as evidence to close the case! ”

"Yes! What the Dharma Master said is extremely true! Therefore, the lower officials were suffering and did not go to the palace city, if they were known by the prefect, they would not know how to scold the lower officials for being mediocre and incompetent, and they actually pushed the murder on the evil ghosts. Wu Biao seemed to have found a soulmate, and hurriedly said: "Fortunately, the adults are here, and it is really an honor to be able to make a proof for the lower officials!" ”

Xiao Rui smiled: "No problem, Master Wu can rest assured!" ”

Wu Biao was overjoyed, and hurriedly served wine to Xiao Rui, and saluted Guo Jia and the three of them separately before retiring and leaving, without further disturbing.

Xiao Rui and the four of them discussed while eating.

"Your Highness, although we have found out the cause of death of the three deceased, we don't know who the murderer is, what the murderer's intentions are, and what the murderer will do next. But from the clues I have now, I think it is in line with my earliest calculation, I feel that the murderer created panic in order to let the people of Songyang County leave here, and this purpose is that the murderer needs to find something, if there are too many people, there are many people, and it is easy to leak the news. Guo Jia calculated.

Xiao Rui nodded and said: "Feng Xiao's words are reasonable, then there are two ways to do it, the first is to wait and see, since the murderer has this intention, I believe that with the horror of the evil ghost killing, the murderer's purpose will soon be achieved." The second way is to expose the truth, eliminate the panic of the people, and at the same time break the murderer's conspiracy, then he has to take risks and be more easily exposed. Fengxiao, which method do you think is better? ”

Guo Jia said: "The first way is insurance, but it is a waste of time. The murderer spent more than 20 days laying out, which shows that he is very patient, and if we wait, the length of time is not easy to control. The second option is quick, but it is fearful that there will be more variables, and it is not clear how many enemies there are in the shadows. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Guo Jia said: "Didn't the Wuxian Order say that there is the sound of evil ghosts dragging chains and evil ghosts roaring in the county town at night?" Then let Yuan Fang and Dian Wei work hard tonight, the two of them secretly investigated, if they could find someone pretending to be a ghost, it would be even better. If we can't find a valuable discovery, then tomorrow we will agree on what to do. What about Your Highness? ”

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Feng Xiao is thoughtful, then it will be hard for Yuanfang and Dian Wei tonight!" ”

Li Yuanfang and Dian Wei hurriedly replied: "Your Highness is serious, this is what we should do. ”

That night, Li Yuanfang and Dian Wei were dressed in night clothes, but the two of them searched hard in the streets of the county seat, and they did not find any sound of evil ghosts dragging chains, let alone evil ghosts roaring.

It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that the two returned to the county office.

In the morning, Xiao Rui and Guo Jia knew that the search was fruitless, but Xiao Rui didn't care, but it aroused Guo Jia's vigilance.

"Your Highness, there is a problem here, and I will talk about it when I ask the head of the county government." Guo Jia immediately asked his subordinates to call the head of the county government.

"The villain Meng San meets the adult." The head of the county government shouted respectfully.

Guo Jia asked, "Meng Dutou, there is something I want to ask you." ”

"Your Excellency, please speak." Meng Dutou asked.

"I heard from the county magistrate that there has been a lot of sound of evil ghosts dragging chains on the streets of the county town at night recently, is this always there, or is it every once in a while, or is there a pattern?"

Meng Dutou was in charge of investigating the case, and naturally knew the most about what was happening in the county, so he only heard him say: "It's always been, since the first deceased Master Yao defrauded the corpse, around the night, the people who beat the watch can hear the sound of chains dragging every night, as well as the low roar of evil ghosts, which is extremely terrifying." ”

"And what about last night?" Guo Jia asked.

Meng Du was stunned for a moment and said, "Last night? This... The villain hasn't had time to ask yet. ”

Guo Jia nodded, and asked about other things: "In addition, there is one more thing, after our adults came to Guixian County yesterday, we heard that there was a murder, so we didn't let the Wuxian Order hide the news of my family's arrival, only said that it was a friend from afar, and those who knew the identity of my family to supervise the imperial history, in addition to the Wuxian Order, there were also two catchers other than Meng Dutou, you shouldn't have said nonsense to others." ”

Meng Dutou hurriedly said: "My lord, please rest assured, we all know the rules, how dare we talk nonsense, if it affects the official affairs of adults, we will be responsible." Don't hide it, my family members have been sent out of Songyang County, and they have all gone out to avoid the limelight, and now all the catchers are on duty in the county office, even if the other two are broken, the news is only circulating in the county office. ”

Guo Jia nodded, he asked what he wanted to ask, and then sent him away with a few simple words.

Xiao Rui is not stupid, as soon as he heard Guo Jia's inquiry, he knew where Guo Jia's question was!

Why was there the sound of evil spirits pulling chains the other night, but not last night? Is it a demon on maternity leave?

Since it's not, it's because of other reasons, so Guo Jia immediately thought, is it because of the reason why his party came, so that the murderer in the dark noticed it, so he canceled the midnight drama where the evil ghost dragged the chain?

Knowing Guo Jia's guess, Xiao Rui couldn't help but secretly praise him for his flexible head and how fast he turned.

As soon as Meng Dutou left, Xiao Rui said: "Fengxiao, do you suspect that there are spies in the yamen?" ”

Guo Jia nodded and said, "That's right!" If the murderer really planted a spy in the county office, then he knows all the activities in the county government well, which is a good move. ”

"And who do you suspect?" Xiao Rui asked.

Guo Jiadao: "Although the county government is not big, but all the internal organs are complete, there are hundreds of people in a county like Songyang County, up to the county order, the county Cheng, there are three classes and six rooms, there are Menzi, soap, horseman, etc., there are many people coming and going, but only the upper level can grasp the news, so many people are excluded." In addition, we just arrived yesterday, and we only had contact with very few people, and we lived in the county office, and the adjutants of the county and county lieutenants did not even meet each other, so those people were basically discharged. In the end, the person who deserves our suspicion must be in this county government and has access to important news. ”

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "If you meet this condition, now there are only county commanders Wu Biao, Meng Dutou and the master around the county magistrate in the county ya." ”

"No, Your Highness, and!" Guo Jia said with a smile.

"Who?" Xiao Rui asked.

Guo Jia said: "The mansion of the county order is behind the county government, and the two are connected, and Wu Biao's wife and concubine cannot be ignored. ”

Xiao Rui suddenly said: "Yes, since ancient times, the pillow wind and bed language are the sharpest!" ”

"Your Highness, I talked about two ways yesterday, and after analyzing the gains and losses, I feel that it is too slow to wait, and the initiative is in the hands of the murderer. It's better to use the second method, but the second method needs to be flexible, it's better to make it clear to Wu Biao first, if there is really someone around Wu Biao who is the murderer's eyeliner, then the murderer will hear that we have found the truth. Then, the murderer will inevitably take advantage of the fact that the truth has not been released to deal with us in advance, and even take the opportunity to create greater panic. Secondly, he will also speed up the implementation of the conspiracy so as not to usher in more trouble. In this way, although we may have certain dangers, we take the initiative into our own hands. Guo Jia said.

With Guo Jia by his side, Xiao Rui was really lazy to use his brain, so he said: "Okay, then follow the method of filial piety!" ”

In the afternoon of the same day, Guo Jia found Wu Biao and said that the cause of death of the three deceased had been basically determined to be man-made, not by evil spirits, but reliable evidence had not yet been found.

Wu Biao was a little confused on the spot.

Didn't you say yesterday that there was no clue and that you suspected that the evil spirit had done it?

Wu Biao also happily played with the concubine at night, and today he will play this play, what about the most basic trust between people?

After listening to Guo Jia's story, Wu Biao had a widowed expression, and this time he was finished.

In the evening, when he came to the concubine's room again, he had no other thoughts, and the concubine saw that his expression was wrong, so she hurriedly rubbed his shoulders for him, and asked on the side.

……

The third day of coming to Songyang County.

Yesterday, I told Wu Biao about the murder of the murderer, but I didn't expect that early this morning, the arrest came to the report, saying that there was a dilapidated brick kiln in the north of the county, and this morning a citizen unintentionally fell into the cave and found corpses everywhere.

Wu Biao hurriedly got up from the concubine's jade arm, and hurriedly rushed with the fast conscription, and Xiao Rui and the four naturally followed.

Unexpectedly, before the murderer started to attack, there was an unexpected situation.
