Chapter 270: Water Breaks Heaven's Heart

[Ran^ζ–‡^Library][]. []. [com] "Half a footprint?" Wu Zhi frowned and groaned, "Only half a ......"

"Yes, in the entire silver vault where the crime occurred, there is only one clue to this half of the footprints, and the others can't even find a single hair. 【For more exciting visits】"

"What do footprints look like?" Wu Zhi raised his eyebrows, "Could it be an inner ghost?" ”

"The footprints are stepped on by the soapcloth boots that can be bought on the street, and these half footprints are very large, I have checked the footprints of everyone up and down the Liu Mansion, don't say that there are no ones wearing that kind of boots, and even people with such big feet have not been found."

Murong Yanda sighed and continued: "I have carefully investigated all the people in the Liu Mansion one by one, including Liu An and his second brother-in-law, but ......" he spread his hands, "I went through all their old bottoms and found that none of them were suspicious...... I've been busy with this lately......"

Wu Zhi poured Murong Yanda a cup of tea and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

When the prefect is most afraid of this kind of strange case, this kind of case is easy to arouse public opinion among the people, and the top is closely watched. And I can't find any suspects and scapegoats, and I can't frame anyone else, so I must make every effort to solve the case, at least give the people and the above a more reasonable explanation.

This is indeed enough for a lazy official like Murong Yanda.

Wu Zhi thought about it for a long time, and found that he had no clue, the tricky case is never how complicated it is, but it makes people unable to find the direction of detection, and there is no way to start without direction, this kind of case is the most difficult to handle.

Wu Zhi plans to send Shi Qian to investigate later, he is a medium and high master, and no matter how clever he is, he may not be able to hide his eyes.

"Brother, I will do my best to help you solve this case, you don't have to be entangled, unless it is really a ghost or god, otherwise we will definitely be able to find clues!"

Wu Zhi didn't believe that this kind of theft was done by ghosts and gods, even if there were gods, how could the gods have the leisure to do this...... Only people covet money.

"Brother, I'm relieved to have your words! With your intelligence, you can definitely help my brother find out those thieves! Murong Yanda gratefully shook Wu Zhi's hands, "I'll order you to go down when I go back, in the future, the elder brother of the government office can enter and leave at will, and you can call the official at will, and I will fully cooperate with ......you, brother."

Wu Zhi secretly glanced at Murong Yanda, and said in his heart I just plan to help you investigate secretly, why does your posture seem to be to put this burden on my shoulders and let me pick up the rhythm of the beam!

However, Wu Zhi did not shirk, this is just to help solve the case, and if the case cannot be solved, the responsibility is still Murong Yanda's.

"Oh, yes!"

Murong Yanda took a sip of tea, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said to Wu Zhi: "Speaking of ghosts and gods, when I checked the foreign population in Qingzhou a few days ago, I caught a stinky Taoist priest. Speaking of which, this Taoist priest is currently the most suspicious, because he said a few days before Liu An's house was stolen that Liu An's house would be ruined. ”

"Oh?" Wu Zhi's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Did you find anything from the Taoist priest?" ”

Murong Yanda suddenly looked like a deflated ball, and said: "No, this stinky Taoist priest is full of nonsense, he said that Liu An's family will make a fortune, but he also said similar things to several other big families, and it is not a good thing anyway." We also explored his details in detail and found that he did not have any motives and conditions for committing the crime, and what was suspicious was his words. ”

"Where is the Taoist priest now? Did you let it go? Wu Zhi asked, since this Taoist priest could predict that Liu An's family would be ruined, even if there was no suspicion, he might be able to find some clues from him.

Murong Yanda replied: "He is still suspicious, of course he didn't let him go, and now he is still locked up in Qingzhou Prison, and he won't think about it if the case is not solved." ”

Wu Zhi nodded, put down the wine glass, wiped his mouth and hands with a wet towel, he slowly raised his head, a light flashed in his deep black eyes, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his young face was full of calm expression.

"Brother, let's go meet this Taoist priest in a while."

Wu Zhi was not in a hurry to go to the scene of the crime, so many experienced criminal investigators in the government couldn't find anything, and Wu Zhi could only be blind when he went.

Now, meeting the only suspect is the right thing to do, since Wu Zhi promised Murong Yanda to help solve the case, then he has to investigate step by step, and the case cannot be solved at once.

"Good, good!" Murong Yanda was excited, stretched his neck, and slammed a chopstick and stuffed the shredded white meat into his small mouth, "Don't wait, let's all eat, brother, I'll take you to see that stinky Taoist!" ”

After speaking, he wiped his mouth with a wet towel, and couldn't wait to pull Wu Zhi away from the table.

………

Qingzhou Prison is in the northwest corner of Qingzhou City, and after Wu Zhi and Murong Yanda left the house, they took a long time to get here.

The Song Dynasty was the dynasty that most valued and obeyed the law in feudal society, but it was also the dynasty with the most merciful laws.

The people in the prison now, except for some who have not yet been convicted, are criminals who have committed petty theft.

Therefore, after entering the prison, there were no wails and grievances in Wu Zhi's imagination, but a fragmentary silence.

Of course, although there was "peace" in the prison, the conditions were still very bad, and once they entered it, they could still smell the musty smell, and Wu Zhi and Murong Yanda couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses.

Led by the cell leader, Wu Zhi and the others came to a relatively clean cell, where a Taoist priest wearing a green and yellow robe, well-dressed and with a long beard was meditating with his eyes closed.

Although the Taoist priest closed his eyes, his face was like a crown of jade, his eyebrows flew into his temples, he looked no more than thirty years old, and his Taoist robe was spotless, and his appearance was very good.

"Hey, Dao Chief, our prefect is here!"

When the Zhao official family believed in Taoism, the status of the Taoist priest in this dynasty was still very high, and the cell boss spoke with a little politeness.

"Come on, come on, let the little fat man have something to ask." The Taoist priest didn't open his eyes and said leisurely.

Murong Yanda suddenly became angry, obviously, the "little fat man" in the Taoist priest's mouth was referring to him.

After waving his hand to let the cell boss leave, Murong Yanda looked at Wu Zhi in embarrassment, and then cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "Stinky Daoist, if you speak disrespectfully to me again, be careful that I hit you!" ”

Although his confidence was a little lacking, after hearing his voice, the Taoist priest finally slowly opened his eyes, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

Wu Zhi secretly sighed, no wonder Murong Yanda mentioned this Taoist priest with a resentment in his tone before, it turned out that he was given by this Taoist priest...... Flirtatious ......

After the Taoist priest opened his eyes, he glanced at the puffing Murong Yanda with a smile, and then his gaze stayed on Wu Zhi, Wu Zhi also looked at him lightly, the Taoist priest's eyes were bright, and Wu Zhi's gaze was not shocked.

After a moment, the Taoist priest suddenly burst out laughing.

"Stinky Daoist! What are you laughing at! ”

As soon as Murong Yanda's words fell, the Taoist priest suddenly retracted his sitting posture, stood up lightly and hugged Wu Zhi.

"It turned out that it was a military official who came, and he was polite."

"Do you recognize me?" Wu Zhi said in surprise.

"I didn't recognize it before, but now I recognize it." The Taoist priest folded his arms and smiled leisurely.

"Since you didn't recognize me before, why did you recognize my identity at a glance?" Wu Zhi asked with interest, except that when he was a nouveau riche, he dressed luxuriously all day long, but now Wu Zhi has always dressed plainly and elegantly, like a young scholar, so it is indeed strange that this Taoist priest can recognize his identity at a glance.

"It's very simple, in the entire Qingzhou, there are people with such an indescribable face, except for the martial arts officials......" The Taoist priest pointed at Murong Yanda, "It's also the fat man next to you who has this blessing." ”

"Stinky Daoist ......" Murong Yanda glanced at the Daoist.

Wu Zhi laughed, waved his hand and said, "I look average, where is a good face." After saying that, he touched his nose inadvertently, and said in his heart, has anyone finally recognized my beauty?

"You do look average......"

After the Taoist priest finished speaking, Wu Zhi was suddenly petrified.

However, looking good is the same as looking good, and this is just the wishful thinking of the world. For those of us who know physiognomy, this is not the case, the tiger head swallow forehead is a good face, the face is black and the body is white, the ears are big and the flesh is close, the mouth is big and the fist is large, and the eyes of the dragon and phoenix...... These are good faces. ”

"Martial arts official, you are full of heaven, the earth is round, your eyes are fixed, your nose is like a hanging gall, your ears are white on your face, you are full of rhinos, and your bearing is magnificent, which is the appearance of being extremely rich and noble!"

Although he was praised by the Taoist priest first and then promoted, Wu Zhi was still a little dissatisfied, he didn't want others to say that he was rich or not, what he wanted to hear most was that others praised him for being handsome!

………

However, this Taoist priest could recognize himself just by looking at his face, and Wu Zhi couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

"The Taoist is really a strange person!" Wu Zhi smiled faintly and said, "Don't hide it, I'm here for that theft, and I hope that the Taoist will tell me the truth, so I can catch the thief as soon as possible and return the Taoist innocence." ”

"Dare to ask how the chief was able to know in advance that Liu An's house would be stolen?" Wu Zhi's eyes sank, and he stared sharply at the Taoist priest, "Shouldn't it be seen from the face?" ”

Murong Yanda also crossed his arms and glanced at the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest shrunk his shoulders and said, "It's not from the face, that Liu An's face is okay......"

"I saw from their family's feng shui that their family would be ruined."

"Nonsense!" Murong Yanda muttered, "You still know Feng Shui?" ”

"Of course I understand Feng Shui......"

Wu Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly and continued to ask, "Feng Shui?" So, what's wrong with Liu Anjia's feng shui? ”

"It's not a big problem, it won't hurt people and animals."

The Taoist priest smiled indifferently: "The feng shui of his mansion has violated the taboo of 'water breaking the heart of heaven', and the main family's wealth has been wiped out!" ”

"Water breaks the heart of the sky?"
