Yan immediately explained: "Second lady, I... I didn't mean that.

Meng Tianchu said in a deep voice: "Feiyan didn't mean that, but I have ,—— did you do it?" ”

Xia Fengyi hurriedly said: "It's not the second lady, it has nothing to do with her." ”

He snorted softly and said, "Do you hear that?" Not me. ”

Meng Tianchu looked at Xia Fengyi's appearance and said to Feiyan, "You go and call Jiayin to come over and have a look." ”

Feiyan nodded hurriedly, and immediately buried her head when she passed by Wen Wen's side and left quickly, looking at Fei Yan's back gently, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Xia Fengyi said: "Husband, don't worry about me, you go and do your job." ”

Meng Tianchu said: "No matter how busy you are, you have to wait for Jiayin to see your illness." ”

Gentleness ridiculed on the side: "She is not a miracle doctor, she should find Lang Zhong if she is sick." ”

Meng Tianchu said angrily: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person!" ”

Gentleness shut up immediately.

Zuo Jiayin and Xue'er hurried over, and it seemed that they were also called by Feiyan, and their hair was still scattered over their shoulders.

Zuo Jiayin sat next to Xia Fengyi, carefully checked her pulse, and then asked Xia Fengyi about how she had eaten and slept recently, and then smiled.

Meng Tianchu saw Zuo Jiayin smiling, and knew that there was no big problem, so he stood up and said: "Zhu Hao called me just now, saying that there was a murder case, I want to go and see, seeing you smile, I know that Feng Yi is fine, you help take care of it, I will come back when I go." ”

After speaking, he patted Xia Fengyi's face lovingly. Then he walked out the door.

Zuo Jiayin said behind him: "You're in such a hurry to leave, don't you even ask Sister Fengyi what's going on?" ”

Meng Tianchu heard what she said, hurriedly stopped, turned around, and looked at Zuo Jiayin suspiciously.

Zuo Jiayin also stood up with a smile, walked to Meng Tianchu's side, and said, "Sister Fengyi is not sick, but happy!" ”

Meng Tianchu shouted. was so happy that he stretched out his hand to hug Zuo Jiayin. Suddenly realized that she had a big belly. So he turned around to find someone, Wen Rou immediately stood beside him, looked at him with a smile, and waited for his hug, but he didn't expect Meng Tianchu to bypass her, walk to the bed and pick up Xia Fengyi, and turn around in place a few times.

Zuo Jiayin said with a smile: "Look at the young master, I'm happy." Hurry up and put Sister Fengyi down, she is weak now, and she can't help tossing like you, young master. ”

Meng Tianchu gave up and carefully put Xia Fengyi on the bed.

Feiyan said in surprise: "The eldest lady is happy?" Hee-hee, I'm going to be Siniang again! ”

Xia Fengyi was surprised and shy, embarrassed to hide in Meng Tianchu's arms.

Meng Tianchu said happily: "Great, haha, I, Meng Tianchu, am the father of two children at such a young age." It's a blessing. ”

Feiyan grinned and said, "That's it." That's it, I'm really happy, I'm also the fourth mother of two children at such a young age! ”

No one paid attention to her. Gentleness looked at them disdainfully, stomped her foot, and turned to go out. walked to the door and threw out a sentence: "I have the ability to give birth to myself, it's really funny to be a Siniang happy to be like this!" With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Feiyan froze, staring at the gentle back in a daze, and the joy of her heart suddenly vanished.

Xia Fengyi saw it in her eyes, stepped forward and pulled Feiyan to her side, and said, "Don't listen to the second lady, she is just playing with you." If it's a woman, you'll have your own children, you're so young, what's the hurry, you see that Jiayin is going to give birth in two months, I'm pregnant again, this family is enough for you to work hard enough for you, if everyone gets together, then do you still have a husband to manage it? ”

Meng Tianchu also said: "That is, you are still so young, let you give birth to ten or eight in the future, and the children in the room will call you mother, and you will be annoyed at that time." ”

Feiyan became cheerful at this time, and she didn't want to blurt out: "I won't be annoyed, I just like children!" ”

Meng Tianchu laughed, Zuo Jiayin lightly tapped Feiyan's forehead with his hand, and said tauntingly: "I haven't seen you so shameless, I'm ashamed of you!" ”

Needless to say, Feiyan's pretty face had already become a big red cloth.

Meng Tianchu and Zhu Hao rushed to the hall, and saw Ye Jing and Ye Chu sitting there in the hall, very anxious, there were two old men standing in the corner of the hall, a man and a woman were husband and wife, with a look of fear.

Ye Chu saw that Meng Tianchu was coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Meng Tianchu said: "Lord Lizheng, what's wrong?" ”

Ye Chu pointed to the two old men in the corner of the hall and said, "They are the villagers of our Yulan Village, and they came about half an hour to report that a dead man's hand was found by the small river at the entrance of our village. This is terrible, I went to see it first, and I have already asked someone to protect the scene. It just so happens that you are here, master, so I will report to you. At the same time, I also sent someone to ride a fast horse to the city to report the case to the yamen. ”

Meng Tianchu called the two old men over.

The two old men trembled and walked to Meng Tianchu's side and knelt down.

Meng Tianchu said: "The old man doesn't have to kneel to talk, get up." ”

The two old men looked at Li Zheng, but still didn't move, so Meng Tianchu didn't force it, and said, "How did you find that dead man's hand?" Is there only one hand? ”

The old man said, "Return... Back to the master, it was found by my old wife, at that time, she... She came back from washing vegetables by the river, and when she came back, she took a piece of meat in her hand, and when I saw it, I asked where the meat came from, and she said that she was picking up the ground by the river, before I thought it was pork, and I thought about who was so careless, and then I was afraid that the weather was too hot to spoil, and the two of us at home couldn't finish eating, so I wanted to use salt and slag, and then hung it on the beam, only to find that it didn't look like pork, and I didn't know what kind of meat it was, so I asked the old woman to take me to the river to see, in the grass not far from where she picked up the meat, I found that hand! ”

"What about the hand?" Meng Tianchu asked.

This village can be regarded as a place with simple folk customs, there have been no murders, Ye Chu has no experience in this area, and smiled a little embarrassedly. said: "It's disgusting, I... I didn't know I was going to get it back, so I left it on the spot. ”

Meng Tian

"What's the point, take me to the scene."

Led by the couple, they came to the river at the edge of the village.

Meng Tianchu looked around, this river was a tributary of the river that took a gentle bath yesterday, and the banks of the river were not wide, probably less than ten meters. The water of the river is very clear. There is no hurry. As far as you can see, on the other side of the river are some farmland and bamboo forests, and farmers have sparsely planted some beans and beans on the ridges.

Meng Tianchu came to the place where the two old men found meat and human hands, one was under a bluestone slab, which is generally found in rural areas, mainly for washing vegetables or laundry, and the land has been used for a long time. The bluestone slabs are clean and level.

Meng Tianchu knelt on the bluestone slab and looked at the position pointed by the old man, which was found in a clump of aquatic plants under the bluestone slab.

At this time, Li Zheng took a villager and brought a small bag made of straw and carefully placed it in front of Meng Tianchu, Li Zheng covered his mouth and pointed at the bag in fear, and said, "Meng Ye." This bag is the man... Manpower. ”

Meng Tianchu opened the bag and took a look. Sure enough, it was a hand, and he took out a sweat towel from his arms to wrap it around the severed hand, and carefully took it out to check it. Many villagers on the side who were watching the excitement immediately screamed, and many children were so frightened that they cried.

At this moment, Wang Yi and the others had already received a report from the people sent by Lizheng, and immediately arrived on a fast horse.

Wang Yi also brought the little monkey with him, and the little monkey sat obediently on Wang Yidi's shoulder, with big eyes and gurgling around. Seeing Meng Tianchu, he squeaked happily twice and threw himself into his arms.

Meng Tianchu gently stroked the little macaque's smooth hair, and then handed the monkey to Zhu Hao next to him.

Murong Zhenxue also came on horseback, and also brought Meng Tianchu's forensic physical evidence investigation box.

Meng Tianchu said to Wang Yi: "Preliminarily, this is a woman's hand, you take your brother and go to the neighborhood to look for it, you should be able to find the rest of the body." ”

Wang Yi nodded, and was about to leave, when Meng Tianchu said again: "Let those onlookers go back, they are shocked, and I don't want to work." ”

After listening to this, Wang Yi took a few steps forward and said to the onlookers: "Don't look at the villagers, go home separately, now it's the yamen errand, there's nothing to see, leave!" ”

Most of the villagers left, and some of the good deeds were reluctant to move, Wang Yi took out a knife from his waist and said viciously: "If you don't leave, go back to the Yamen Prison with me, it's much better than here!" ”

The rest of the earthlings dispersed in a hurry.

Meng Tianchu looked at Murong Yuxue and said with a smile: "Wang Yi has always used this trick to scare the people. ”

Murong Yuxue smiled slightly, but did not speak.

Subsequently, Wang Yi and the catchers began to search the vicinity.

After a while, Wang Yi and a few other catchers discovered the situation in the bamboo forest not far away, and shouted loudly to Meng Tianchu.

Meng Tianchu naturally heard it, but he pretended to be very serious and studied that hand.

Murong Yuxue finally couldn't hold it back, and said softly: "Master Meng! Meng Ye~! ”

"Huh?" Nie Feng waited for her to scream several times in a row, and then raised his head to look at her as if he had just woken up from a dream.

"Wang Zhutou seems to have discovered the situation on the other side of the bamboo forest, and he is calling you!"

Meng Tianchu smiled evilly at Murong Yuxue: "I thought you weren't going to pay attention to me for the rest of your life." ”

Murong Yuxue blushed and pursed her lips and smiled: "Meng Ye has a lot of tricks, this is how you deceived the hearts of one girl after another, right?" ”

Meng Tianchu stepped forward and whispered, "When did I lie to you?" When you pass the door, you will know my heart, I want to marry you now, are you willing? ”

Murong Yuxue's cheeks were already crimson, and she lowered her head and said, "Master Meng, it's all agreed, when the second lady's affairs are properly handled, let's talk about our affairs, okay?" Now let's go to the case! ”

"Well, well!" Meng Tianchu walked quickly to the bamboo forest.

Wang Yi pointed to the bamboo cage that a fisherman had used to hold fish under a pile of grass, and said, "Master, just now we found that there seems to be something inside, which looks like meat. ”

Meng Tianchu nodded, squatted down, lifted the bamboo cage, and found that it was very heavy, and there was indeed something like meat in it, he gently tilted the bamboo cage, and then poured out the contents inside. It was some of the arms that had been chopped up, and some of the fingers, and some of what looked like human hair, stuck to the flesh, because it was already hot, and some flies were already attracted and buzzing.

These stumps were foul-smelling and terrifyingly shaped, and some officials next to them covered their mouths and noses and retreated one after another, and even ran a few steps into the distance and vomited wildly.

Murong Zhenxue followed Meng Tianchu to see countless bloody scenes, and this time she couldn't help but feel a little sick to her stomach.

The little monkey on Zhu Hao's shoulder jumped on the bamboo exaggeratedly, climbed up and down, covered his eyes with one hand and pretended to be afraid, and squeaked in his mouth.

Meng Tianchu took out gloves from the forensic physical evidence investigation box and put them on, carefully rummaged between the meat, and then looked back at Murong Yuxue, and found that she was already leaning on a bamboo with a pale face, Meng Tianchu said, "Can I start?" ”

Murong Yuxue stood up, Murong Yuxue knelt down on one knee, put a small wooden board on his lap, spread the corpse grid, looked at him firmly and nodded.

Meng Tianchu smiled approvingly: "Okay then, start recording." ”

Meng Tianchu explained the stump that was discovered, and Murong Yuxue recorded it with a small brush.

Before the inspection was finished, some of the officials found half of the man's thigh in the aquatic plants opposite.

Meng Tianchu stood up and said to Wang Yi: "In this way, continue to search, find all the stumps as much as possible, and bring back all the stumps found, I hope that the murderer did not throw the stumps of the body around, in this way, you should be able to find a relatively complete limb." ”

Wang Yi nodded, and continued to search with the catcher.
