Chapter 8 Digging Graves
The family members of the Zhao Mansion are not good people, and those who don't know still think they are bandits?
"Stop it."
Bai Xiao looked back, "Master Ni, it's really timely!" You won't be able to see me later. ”
"The county magistrate is serious, these people are just joking with you, you shouldn't be surprised!"
Eating other people's mouths is short and piercing other people's soft hearts, this face Bai Xiao will not give it, "I knew it was a joke, otherwise who would dare to be so bold?" You tell me? ”
"Nature."
"The joke has passed, can the official take someone away?"
"Go all the way."
It is really inconvenient for the county government to be outside the city, even if you have to go a long way to take a prisoner, this road is really non-stop! Rotten eggs and stones don't know when they came out.
Zhao Lei is not a good person, but he is good to the people under him, what about Zhao Lei's hands are black? It's all a bunch of indiscriminate.
Bai Xiao didn't escape under the protection of everyone, rotten eggs are really stinky!
As soon as the big black dog smelled this, he was energetic, and he pounced on Bai Xiao, it was originally just a small piece and it became a large piece after a while, and now it is estimated that it is the happiest.
The situation after leaving the city was better, and when he returned to the county office, Bai Xiao locked up Ma Xin first.
Even if you want to be arraigned, you have to rest for a while, Bai Jian walked in with a stick, and because of the inconvenience of his legs and feet, he stayed in the county office, "Young master, this is a homicide case, you better not get involved." ”
"What are these words? I'm a county magistrate, and I can't shirk it. ”
"Young master, you should know that we will stay in Jinshan County for a year or two at most and then go back, and the master will not let you stay outside all the time."
"It's not easy to go back to the imperial capital, not to mention that the general Du Ang has always been against our Bai family, and not to say that today's saint has said that my brothers will not let me go back so easily, and I must have meritorious political achievements, so that my father will not forget me, and it is possible to return to the imperial capital."
Bai Jian has followed Bai Xiao for many years, and suddenly found that Bai Xiao has become another person, no longer messing around arbitrarily, but becoming thoughtful, Bai Jian is very excited, who doesn't want to follow such a master?
"It's a little fool, and it almost ruined the young master's big thing."
"You go and prepare some whips or something, I'm going to torture them."
"Young master, you're going to bend into a move."
"Do you need me to try it on you first!" Bai Jian immediately went out to prepare when he heard this, he really talked too much just now.
Ma Xin was locked in the dungeon, saying that the dungeon was a big pit with a few wooden stakes added to it, that is, Ma Xinwen was weak, and if it was replaced by others, he would have climbed up a long time ago.
Bai Xiao stood on the edge of the dungeon, "Ma Xin, you can plead guilty." ”
"My lord, the students have been wronged!"
"Would you say anything more than that? If you want to get away with it, you have to find a way to justify yourself, and use me to teach you. ”
"My lord, I really didn't kill anyone, Zhao Lei is my employer, how could I kill him?"
What's going on here? Bai Xiao was confused, "Aren't you going to sue Zhao Lei?" How did he become your employer again, you don't rush to get away with it, just talk nonsense. ”
"The student didn't dare to deceive, the adult ordered not to collect the city gate tax and provoked Zhao Lei, Zhao Lei wanted to give an adult a horse, so he asked the student to sue him, just ask this situation, why did the student kill him?"
If what Ma Xin said is true, then this Zhao Lei is too arrogant and arrogant, and he has to deal with Bai Xiao without even seeing him, even if such a person does not die now, he will not live long in the future.
"Ma Xin, you're still a scholar! I don't even understand the word right and wrong. ”
Li Yaonian: "Young master, you don't know anything about this, this Ma Xin!" After ten years of studying, he didn't even pass the county exam, but he lost all the ancestral inheritance, and he was not even as good as an old slave. ”
A person who doesn't even know how to live really can't force him to know right from wrong.
"Lao Li, you said that you saw Ma Xin kill people with your own eyes, is it true?"
"Nature."
Ma Xin was very excited, "You are spewing blood, there are only two people in the private room at that time, Zhao Lei and me, what did you see with your own eyes." ”
"I've been eavesdropping outside, and you've had a verbal altercation at the time."
Bai Xiao always felt that something was very strange, to say that the case could be closed now, but it was impossible for Ma Xin to kill Zhao Lei! Unless Li Yaonian is lying.
But that doesn't make sense! Li Yaonian signed a deed of sale, "Lao Li, let me ask you again, did you witness the whole process of Ma Xin's murder?" ”
"This...., no."
"Then you just said that there is, this is a human homicide, how can you be allowed to confuse the public here."
"Young master, the old slave was outside at the time, and I could hear them talking, but I couldn't see it very clearly through the window paper."
Seeing may not be true, not to mention that Li Yaonian doesn't see it too clearly.
It is not ruled out that he may be killed, Bai Xiao must go to the scene of the murder to take a look, maybe there are any clues?
If you have something, you can't be idle, Bai Xiao took Zheng Tu and Li Yaonian directly and left?
Bai Jian only had envy, "Young master, haven't you eaten yet?" ”
"Heat it up first, and then eat it when you come back."
Ma Xin and Zhao Lei met in the private room, Bai Xiao thought it was the private room of the restaurant? I didn't expect it to be the private room of the Qinglou, which is a word short of a lot of things?
This Jinshan County is really a sparrow, although it has all the organs! It's all there!
Lan Lou, this name is really gaudy, but Bai Xiao likes it, but as soon as the three of them entered, they were blasted out, "Three masters, it's still early, the girls are still sleeping, come back at night!" ”
It's already afternoon, it's almost dusk, it's still early, it seems that physical work is not easy to do!
Bai Xiao doesn't have official uniforms, but Zheng Tu and Li Yaonian are wearing official uniforms?
"You open your eyes and see, the one behind me is catching fast and the other is catching heads, are you here to play?"
"But the two masters behind you are here to play."
This Li Yaonian and Zheng Tu really don't give Bai Xiao a long face, the peach blossom face should have already thought about it!
Bai Xiao slapped the turtle slave in the face, Li Yaonian and Zheng Tu are their own people, if they can't fight, they won't beat, so that the two of them can be sober and sober, "Call the old bustard out." ”
"Boy, you're trying to cause trouble!" This turtle slave really doesn't have any eyesight at all, what else can he stand in front of the fast catcher and the head catcher? Of course, it's an official.
The movement below alarmed the old bustard, and the old bustard can still be regarded as charming, but he is a little fatter.
Qinglou is not easy to do, what three religions and nine streams have to be contacted, Hua Xi has been working in this industry for many years, when he was young, he was a little more lucky, and finally became an old bustard.
Her eyesight and news are no worse than Liao Guangsheng, "If you are blind, the county commander will dare to stop you." ”
"If you know me, it's easy to do, you should know why this official is here!"
"Zhao Lei's matter has nothing to do with us, and no one wants such a thing to happen when we open the door to welcome guests."
"It's convenient."
Since ancient times, the people do not fight with officials, and Hua Xi is no exception, "Chunsheng, come to serve." ”
Another turtle slave ran out of it, but this turtle slave was different, no matter how he was talking, he bent over and lowered his head, showing humility and making him superior.
Li Yaonian took Bai Xiao to Tianzi No. 3 room, that is, the place where Zhao Lei was killed that night, Bai Xiao gently pushed it, but the inside was locked.
"Zheng Tu, slam the door."
Chunsheng suddenly blocked the door, "Adult, you just bypass the small one!" If you do this, my mother won't spare me. ”
Bai Xiao didn't speak, Zheng Tu didn't care about this and that, he directly pushed Chunsheng to the ground, kicked the door open with one kick, and directly frightened the people inside.
Bai Xiao didn't know what to say, the murder scene was actually used normally, and there should be no clues in this posture.
What a prostitute is so bold! This is fascinated by beauty! I'm not afraid of bad luck.
A skinny man walked out of it, not even wearing clothes, "Who delayed the master to do good deeds." ”
Hua Xi let Chunsheng follow because he was afraid of this, "Master Chang, this is the county order, you can bear more." ”
Bai Xiao didn't have such a good temper, "Get out of the way, or I'll arrest you." Bai Xiao walked in directly, except for that Chang Ye, there were no women inside, this is using the Qinglou as an inn!
It seems that the person just now was quite anxious! No wonder it's so skinny.
Bai Xiao grabbed the shirt on Chunsheng's chest with one hand, "Are you trying to shield the murderer?" It's so clean and fragrant. ”
"My lord, it's not strange that this place in Qinglou is dead, you can't close the door!"
The peony flower dies, and the ghost is also romantic, and the Qinglou is indeed an eventful place.
Li Yaonian: "Young Master, what should I do?" ”
Bai Xiao didn't want to take that step, but he couldn't do it if he didn't go, so he took advantage of the darkness and Bai Xiao to go to the mass grave and found Zhao Lei's grave.
The kind of pickaxe in Li Yaonian's hand, "Young Master, is this really going to be dug up?" ”
"Dig, the first seven haven't passed yet, so I'm going to the ground, there must be ghosts in here."
"Young master, can you not mention the last word! It all sounds like panic. ”
Zheng Gang is a muddy person, he doesn't blink his eyes when he chops his hands, let alone dig some soil, he directly moves the stone tablet to the side, and excavates it with two big arms.
Bai Xiao looked at Li Yaonian, who was trembling beside him, "You're still watching, aren't you afraid?" When you see a corpse, you can go. ”
The entire mass grave is full of graves, and in some places the white bones are simply exposed, and it is impossible for Bai Xiao to say that he is not afraid at all, and he is also holding on.
"Ahh
Bai Xiao: "Li Yaonian, what are you yelling at?" ”
"There's... Mouse. ”
"Is it strange that there are rats underground?"
"But this rat is too big, and it's almost catching up with the yellow skin."
Of course, the rats in the mass grave are big, and the rats outside eat grain and grass roots, while the rats here eat meat, which is really disgusting to think about.
Zhao Lei's coffin was not bought deeply, and after a while, Bai Xiao saw the coffin lid and "pry it open." ”
