Yu Xinlong was pleasantly surprised, and thanked Meng Tianchu for hanging high, and the foreman had an order, who dared not obey? The crowd hurriedly collected their respective blades.

Xiao Zhenpeng asked, "My lord, how can you tell that Chief Yu is not a murderer?" ”

"Shoe prints!" Meng Tianchu squatted down and pointed to a Yu Xinlong's shoe print, there were a few grasses in it that had been trampled on, lying in the shoe print, and explained: "The wet mud on the grass in the shoe print has not dried yet, if it was stepped on two hours ago, under the sun, the mud mark on the grass in the middle of the shoe print that was stepped on should have dried out long ago." I checked all the shoe prints of the chief at the scene, and the wet mud marks in the shoe prints were not dry, indicating that they had just formed. The deceased was killed two hours ago, so it could not have been killed by the commander. ”

Xiao Zhenpeng exaggerated his thumb: "The foreman is like a god who solves the case!" It's amazing to be able to discover the truth of the matter from such small details~! ”

All the fans echoed the voice, and the flattery was endless.

Yu Xinlong said: "Fang Lang's martial arts are very high, the enemy can kill him quietly without leaving a trace, the martial arts are so high that it has reached an unbelievable level!" ”

Xiao Zhenpeng said coldly: "But I don't know how Fang Lang's martial arts compare with Commander Yu?" ”

"Not much to lose...... Chief Xiao, what do you mean by that? ”

"It's nothing, it's just that among all the people here, your martial arts are the highest, if someone can kill Fang Lang in such an instant, I'm afraid it must be you!"

"Xiao Zhenpeng! Master Meng has already said just now that Yu did not kill Brother Fang Langfang, what is the reason why you still want to entangle? ”

Xiao Zhenpeng smiled: "I'm just talking about things, you have the highest martial arts, so you are most likely to kill Fang Lang." It's not impossible for you to kill people without leaving footprints. ”

Yu Xinlong said brazenly: "In terms of martial arts alone, although I am a little stronger than Fang Lang and a few of them, I am not much stronger, and it takes one or two hundred moves to defeat him with all my strength, including me, all of us, I am afraid that no one can kill Fang Lang in one move so quietly, not to mention, if I want to approach Fang Lang without leaving any traces in these ten zhang, I can't do it, I know their martial arts, and I can't do it." Don't talk about us, I'm afraid as long as it's human, you can't do it! - Unless the person can fly! ”

Yes, the deceased was surrounded by soft mud soaked in torrential rain, and there were no other people's footprints within a radius of a few feet, and the fatal wound of the deceased showed that it was a kind of finger-thick triangular stabbing device, and the wound was on the top of the head, and it was not close to the body, so it could not be stabbed to the top of the head at all, unless the person could fly.

Speaking of flying, Xia Fengyi suddenly remembered the white eagle she saw on the beach, the eagle caught the rabbit and fell to its death on the cliff, and then pecked the top of the rabbit's head and ate the brain marrow inside. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder: "Husband, could it be...... What did the white eagle do? ”

"White eagles?" Xiao Zhenpeng and the others didn't know what to do, and asked suspiciously.

Feiyan told the three of them about the eagle they saw pecking at the rabbit's brain yesterday.

Hearing this, the female fan Zhang Yilei said in a trembling voice: "The boss of the boat said that many years ago, there was a fisherman who died unjustly, and his anger turned into a white eagle, pecked the enemy's head, and ate the enemy's brain......!" ”

After listening to the story relayed by Zhang Yilei, Xiao Zhenpeng and the others all looked at the boat boss.

The captain of the boat laughed and said: "That's also an ancient legend, and the little one is not just true or false, but everyone says so." ”

Zhang Yilei asked Chuanlao Dao: "Didn't you say that if you throw the wine and dishes into the sea, then the unjust ghost won't make trouble?" Why did we still encounter that big storm later? ”

"This ...... Hehe, the little one doesn't know ......, maybe he's not satisfied......" Speaking of this, the ship's boss shuddered, looked at the sky, and continued in a low voice, "Maybe there is someone in our group who he doesn't like, so he turned into a white eagle and came to trouble us......"

Everyone suddenly felt a chill on their bodies and looked at the sky together.

There were no birds in the sky except for a round of sunset on the sea and a colorful sky, and the white eagle that Meng Tianchu and the others saw yesterday no longer knew where it had flown to. Or maybe they're hiding somewhere on the island, sneering and waiting for them to be left alone.

Meng Tianchu doesn't believe in the legend that the resentment turns into an eagle pecking at the brain, but the eagle can attack the hare, of course, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not attack the human, the eagle saw yesterday The wings spread out nearly a zhang wide, and when he rushed to the rock, he saw it very clearly, the eagle's sharp beak was very sharp, he was not a zoologist, he didn't know how strong the eagle's pecking was, whether it could penetrate the human skull and peck at the human brain.

And now, the deceased died mysteriously, there were no murderer's footprints around, and the top of the deceased's head was pierced, and the majestic posture of the eagle he saw yesterday made Meng Tianchu dare not easily rule out this possibility.

Meng Tianchu looked around at everyone and asked, "Did you see this white eagle two hours ago?" ”

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads together, and Fanzi Wang Jinhua said: "Since I went ashore yesterday, I haven't seen any eagles, let alone white eagles." ”

Fanzi Cai Qingworm said: "Yes, when we hunted at noon, we wondered why there were no birds on this island, could it be that the eagle scared the birds away." ”

Feiyan interjected, "It's very likely! The eagle is very ferocious, you have never seen the eagle, catching the little rabbit as if playing, and besides, my grandmother and young master and I have seen the eagle peck through the rabbit's head, the bones of the human head may not be much harder than the bones of the rabbit's head, the rabbit's head can easily peck through, to peck through the human head, it is not an easy thing. ”

Zhang Yilei said: "Since it was made by an eagle, why hasn't everyone seen this eagle?" ”

Xiao Zhenpeng said: "That's not simple, this eagle must be hiding in the nearby grass and not flying, after finding the right time, it swept at a low altitude, suddenly attacked, and then hid in the grass after it succeeded, it is not high flying, of course everyone can't see it." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked around nervously, but there was no special movement around except for the roar of the mountain wind.

Meng Tianchu squatted down again, carefully examined the wound on the top of the deceased's head, took a knife, cut the scalp, opened the scalp and inspected the situation around the hole.

After reading it, Meng Tianchu's brows furrowed together, and after thinking for a while, he slowly stood up and said, "Okay, let's not scare ourselves." Whether it was done by the eagle, or an enemy we didn't know was hiding on the island, or someone of us, in short, we must find out the matter and find out the murderer to avenge the Fang Lang brothers. ”

Yu Xinlong said: "Yes! My lord, will you immediately lead someone to search the island thoroughly? ”

"No, this island is not big, it is not small, it takes at least three or four hours to walk around, and if you want to search the whole island, even if it takes a whole day, it may not be complete. Now that it's almost dark, I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a loss, so I'd better search tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes!" Yu Xinlong and Xiao Zhenpeng bowed down to receive the order.

Now it is a top priority to protect the safety of Meng Tianchu and his wife and concubine, but Meng Tianchu's cave entrance is too narrow to accommodate so many people, after discussion, it was decided to set up a camp on a relatively wide hillside not far from the cave entrance, and at night Xiao Zhenpeng and Yu Xinlong formed two teams, taking turns to guard in the middle of the night to prevent the enemy from sneaking attack.

Everything was normal that night, and there was no sign of the enemy.

Early the next morning, all work was stopped and efforts were concentrated on the search for the hidden enemy.

Meng Tianchu, Xia Fengyi, and Feiyan were personally guarded by Xinlong, and they checked on the top of the hill to see if there was any movement of the white eagle around, and the rest of the people, including the boat boss and the female fan Zhang Yilei, all went out to find possible enemy traces or the white eagle hidden somewhere.

There was still a lot of fishing left yesterday, and there was no need to worry about food on this day, and the island's large and small waterholes have accumulated a lot of fresh water from storms. Xiao Zhenpeng After they ate barbecue fish fillets, they set off.

This time, Meng Tianchu emphasized that it is not allowed to disperse, and it is arranged in a long snake formation for a carpet search, and the two people next to each other must be able to see each other, and once something happens, they can be detected immediately.

Meng Tianchu and the four of them checked the surrounding situation on the top of the mountain, and after yesterday's words, Meng Tianchu noticed that there were really no birds on this island, and the white eagle that he saw that day was also missing in the past few days, if it wasn't for the three of them to see it, he really thought it was just an illusion.

The search lasted until dark, Xiao Zhenpeng took the crowd and the boat boss, and returned exhausted, after a dragnet search, no trace of the enemy was found, and no suspicious traces were found, of course, the white eagle did not show up. At the same time, there were no large beasts or anything like that.

At night, everyone gathered on the beach, fishing and barbecue while discussing this matter, because the place where the deceased died was an open area, and it was relatively flat, Fang Lang was also a carefully selected master in the East Factory, no matter how high the enemy's martial arts were, in such an open area, it was impossible to approach Fang Lang unconsciously and kill with one move, the most difficult thing to explain was that there were no footprints, so, speaking of which, everyone basically agreed that the murderer was likely to be the mysterious eagle, if it was a person, No one can do it within a dozen feet of mud without a trace.

If it is a real person, even if it is a martial arts master, everyone doesn't think it is terrifying, but it is this mysterious white eagle that makes people feel even more frightened.

After talking for a long time, he couldn't find a way, and Meng Tianchu had nothing to do about this kind of thing.

That night, the vigilance continued to be strengthened.

In the cave, Xia Fengyi and Feiyan snuggled up to Meng Tianchu's side left and right, looking at the small bonfire in front of them.

Xia Fengyi asked, "Husband, do you think it was really that eagle who killed that Fang Lang?" ”

Feiyan hurriedly said: "Yes, the young master said, there are no other people's footprints within a radius of more than ten zhang, except for the eagle, who else can float in the air and kill people?" ”

Meng Tianchu sighed lightly and shook his head.

Xia Fengyi saw that Meng Tianchu's expression was a little wrong, and put her arm around him and asked, "Husband, I always feel that the eagle pecks people to death, it's too incredible, I've never heard of an eagle pecking people to death." ”

"yes~!" Meng Tianchu sighed, looked outside the cave, hesitated for a moment, hugged the second daughter's head, and the three heads touched together, then he continued in a low voice, "This case is not so simple...... no matter what, let's be careful, you two are my sweethearts, on this isolated island, my martial arts are not enough to protect your safety, so we can only use wisdom, not brute force......"

Xia Fengyi and Feiyan didn't know what Meng Tianchu's somewhat inexplicable words meant, and raised their beautiful eyes to look at Meng Tianchu, both of them with a trace of worry in their eyes.

Meng Tianchu kissed the second daughter and said in a low voice: "No matter what, I promise, we will definitely go home safely, don't worry!" ”

The next day, Meng Tianchu instructed the boat boss to continue to build ships, let Yu Xinlong personally take action and be responsible for protecting Meng Tianchu and them, the female fan Zhang Yilei continued to burn pottery, Xia Fengyi did it, Meng Tianchu fished by himself, Feiyan barbecued, and the rest of the people went hunting under the leadership of Xiao Zhenpeng, this time they were still cautious, especially paying attention to whether the white eagle appeared in the sky, but fortunately, nothing happened. The eagle didn't show up either.

For three days, it was peaceful, and everyone's hearts gradually relaxed.

On the morning of the fourth day, Meng Tianchu woke up in the cave, and came to be interested, holding the sleepy Xia Fengyi and Feiyan to exercise early, the second daughter was originally sleepy, but he kneaded and pinched and dozed off, and he also came to be interested, and served Meng Tianchu as if he had arrived in a fairyland.

When the three of them were in love, they suddenly heard a nervous voice from a man outside the cave shouting, "My lord! Master Foreman! Oh no! ”

Meng Tianchu was drunk and dreaming of death and was about to reach the fairyland, and he didn't pay attention, but Xia Fengyi and Feiyan heard it, and immediately stopped moving.

Meng Tianchu was about to ask at the exit, when he suddenly heard the man outside the cave shouting again: "Master Foreman! Oh no, something happened! ”

This time Meng Tianchu heard it, hugged Xia Fengyi's **** body, turned his head and asked, "Who?" Is it the Chief of the Army? ”

"Yes, it's a humble position, my lord, it's not good! Xu Xiaobin is dead~! ”

Xia Fengyi and Feiyan were taken aback, and they both threw themselves into Meng Tianchu's arms.

Meng Tianchu hugged the naked second daughter and asked loudly, "What's the matter?" ”

"I just found out that Xu Xiaobin is dead, and the top of his head is ...... was pecked through a hole, the same as Fang Lang! ”

"Protect the scene, I'll be right away!" Meng Tianchu kissed the second daughter, got up and got dressed, Xia Fengyi and Feiyan also got up and got dressed, and the three of them went out of the cave.

Meng Tianchu opened the fence door and asked, "What's going on?" ”

"In the early hours of the morning, Xu Xiaobin went to the woods for convenience, but he never came back, and the brother on duty found that something was wrong, searched around, and found that he was dead."

"Where?"

"In the grass ahead!"

"Who first found out?"

"Zhang Yilei. She, her two other brothers, and I were on duty in the second half of the night. ”

"Call her."

Zhang Yilei looked nervous, walked over and bowed.

Meng Tianchu asked, "You tell me what happened." ”

"Yes, according to the arrangement of Chief Yu, in the first half of the night, Chief Xiao was on duty with the four of them, Wang Jinhua and Xu Xiaobin, and in the second half of the night, Chief Yu took me and Su Wen and the three of us on duty. Chief Yu was in the direction of the entrance of the cave, and Su Wen and I stood guard in the upper and lower directions of the camp. Before dawn, Xu Xiaobin got up and passed my sentry and said that it was convenient to go, so he went to the grass in front. After a long time he didn't come back, I was a little nervous, called him loudly, but didn't hear an answer, then the commander woke up, asked about the situation, and told me to check on it. By this time it was already dawn, and when I went over, I found that he was dead in the grass. ”

"Has anyone else been to the scene besides you?"

"No, after the commander heard what I said, he asked us not to go over, he went to report to you, and we will stay here until you come."

Meng Tianchu nodded, asked the direction of the corpse, and walked forward a few dozen steps, and saw a corpse curled up in the grass, looking at the clothes, it was Fanzi Xu Xiaobin.

Meng Tianchu first checked the surrounding situation, then avoided the places that might leave traces and came to the corpse.

Xu Xiaobin's fatal wound was still on the top of his head, a finger-thick triangular wound, a skull fracture, the corresponding part of the brain plasma was missing, and blood and some brain plasma were adhered to the side of the wound. Fully dressed and with no visible signs of fighting.
