Qin Lin saw that the attention of the eldest lord of Zhizhou and the hundred households of Jinyi Wei was attracted by him, and the black-bellied man was secretly happy, and there was really no beautiful eyebrows to show the blind man in his performance.

The four people of the Ming Dynasty were Shinong industry and commerce, and the highest and most popular taxi was the scholar, and the scholar was so dragged by Mao? Because he can be an official!

Most of the Qinglou Chu Pavilion and hotel gambling stalls in Qizhou City are related to the official eunuchs, and like the butcher shop opened by the common people in Lu Yuanzhi's house, there is no official backer, from the third class of officials to the six-room scribe to the brocade army, but anyone who can touch the official word can come to eat and take the card, and you have to give the white flowers and silver as soon as you touch your mouth.

Whether you want to make a career or protect the people around you, only being an official can raise your eyebrows, Qin Lin knew that he had little hope and went to the bookstore to flip through the small ink scroll of the Bingzi Branch, which was for this reason, but unfortunately, the final conclusion was that this way did not work.

The text is not good and there is martial arts, of course it is not a military general, the Ming Dynasty emphasizes literature and light martial arts, and the status of military generals is extremely low, even if the border commander goes to the military department, he has to kowtow with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and the grain and grass soldiers and horses also depend on the face of the local civil official, and if he is not careful, he makes a small mistake and is impeached by the imperial history who hears about things, it is really tasteless, and besides, Qin Lin will not fight on horseback!

He aimed at Jinyiwei, the Son of Heaven pro-army, the flying fish suit embroidered spring knife is majestic, when the Jinyiwei commander of the dynasty made Liu Shouyou a military minister and the crown prince, Xuan He for a while, with his own criminal investigation skills, it should be easier to be promoted in the Jinyi Wei system......

When the murder happened, I thought that only the old man of Zhizhou came, but I didn't expect Zhang Gongyu to drag Shi Wei very well, it was really dozing off and someone sent a pillow, and the case became as complicated and difficult to solve as originally thought, Zhang Gongyu was helpless, and pinned his hopes on Qin Lin, who had been pointing at the scene.

At this point, Qin Lin no longer sold Guanzi, and bowed his hand to Zhang Gongyu and Shi Wei: "I do have some confidence in the late life of the case, but I boldly trespass, and I have to ask the two adults for forgiveness." ”

When Zhang Gongyu heard this, his sweat stopped flowing wildly, his heart stopped beating, and he was really happy from the sky: "How can I blame you?" If the real murderer can be caught, it is too late for the official to recite Amitabha, so it is not too much to give the elder brother an immortal position. ”

Qin Lin bowed and thanked him, and said in his heart that there was a lack of praise for cross talk, and it was not suitable to see that Zhang Gongyu and Shi Wei were Shangguan, Niu Dali was a solid eye, and others were even more unfamiliar, so he had to ask Lu Yuanzhi beside him: "Fatty, didn't we just say that this sword was put on the scene after the murder in order to blame the real murderer?" ”

Originally, Lu Yuanzhi was a little timid when he saw the eldest lord of Zhizhou and the hundred households in brocade, and he kept shrinking in the corner, but he didn't know why Qin Lin became bold when he asked, and then said: "Yes, this sword is the real murderer, in order to make people mistakenly think that it is a Taoist priest to kill people, deliberately put it here, but who is the real murderer?" ”

The fat man cooperated very well, and Qin Lin was happy, "Who found the sword, and where did you find it, there is an article here." ”

Cui Zhutou's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was very cooperative with several catchers to bring up the cow flat hair and tangerine tanners who found the corpses, and asked the local security to introduce the basic situation of the two.

The tannery is a widower in his forties, and like most of the men in the village, he has a small fishing boat and relies on fishing for a living, but he also has a good leatherman's craft, which is used to supplement the family, so he lives quite well-off, and I heard that he goes to the lower class academy in Qizhou City from time to time.

Niu is in his early twenties, tall and strong, with an extremely hot temper, fishing on the Qi River and the Yangtze River all year round, and is a famous reckless ghost in the village.

The two men brought in, as expected, the tanner, who was short and stiff, with a pair of eyes that were rolling around, and looked like the shrewdness of a small businessman;

Niu Bianmao surprised Lu Yuanzhi: It was none other than the stunned young man with a harpoon!

"Haha, it's not the one he killed, it's weird!" The fat man sneered, lowered his voice and said to Qin Lin: "This cow was framed after killing people, so he ran the fastest, and he had to catch up with the master and apprentice of the clematis, so that he could exonerate himself; Hmph, he also found the murder weapon, I think he put it there himself! ”

Qin Lin smiled, noncommittal, and asked these two people to tell the process of finding the corpse, it was nothing more than the tangerine leather craftsman passing by outside the courtyard, inadvertently looking in from the half-hidden firewood, and found that Ma Tang's family was lying in a pool of blood, and just about to make a noise, Niu Bianmao also came here, and the two of them went to call the people in the village at the same time.

is exactly the same statement as before, from Zhang Gongyu, Shi Wei to Cui Zhutou, they all carefully pondered these words, and felt that there were no clues.

Then Qin Lin asked again about the discovery of the Seven Star Sword.

Rao is a well-known stunned young man, seeing that Zhizhou, Jinyi Baihu and other big names are here, he can't help but feel worried, and carefully said what happened:

"As soon as I saw that my third cousin was killed, I made a noise with Uncle Chen, a tanner, and after a while, the old and young masters in the village came, and everyone said that there were three Taoist priests eating at Ma's house in the morning, and it was not a thief Taoist priest who killed people?

Uncle Chen slapped his thigh and said that it would take at least an hour for the government to come, so let's go into the house and look carefully, maybe we can find evidence.

Everyone went to Ma's house and found a room each, and I went to the west room. Originally, the first time I went in and glanced at it, I didn't find this Laoshzi sword, because of my stomach trouble, I went to the thatched house, and when I came back, I heard Uncle Chen say, 'I didn't find anything in the east side room, not even under the bed', and suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen the bottom of the bed, so I went to the west side room under the bed to see, I didn't think that this thing was just under the bed, what a coincidence......"

The courtyard was quiet for a while, and the atmosphere became eerie.

Hearing this, Zhang Gongyu was thoughtful, and Shi Wei half-narrowed his eyes, and his gaze was nailed to Niu Bianmao's body like a nail.

Cui Zhutou sneered: "Originally, there was nothing, you went out to the thatched house, and the sword was there, yes or no?" ”

"I can't say that, I didn't look at the bottom of the bed for the first time......" Niu Bianmao said and felt that the atmosphere was not quite right, and all the people looked at him like a dead man, and his heart was furious, and he wanted to scold, but the identity of the people in this courtyard made him dare not scold.

Wei Lingxian snorted on the ground: "What the hell, you still use a broken harpoon to chase Daoye, it turns out that you are the one who blamed Daoye!" Taishang Laojun is on top, let your Ya's son have no fart. Eye, oh no, you don't have a chance to have a son, wait for the knife to behead! ”

Kong Qingzi and Yun Huazi were even more indignant: "We didn't recruit you to provoke you, there was no injustice in the past life and no enmity in this life, why did you wronged a good person?" Ouch, fortunately, Taishang Laojun has a miracle, and finally taught you to draw water in a bamboo basket, but gave his surname to his life. ”

Cui Zhutou sneered again and again, took out the iron chain from his arms, shook it, and was about to put it on the cow's flat hair.

"Wait, it's not me," Niu Bianmao shook his hands in panic, "What the hell is going on, Uncle Cui, are you mistaken?" ”

Lu Yuanzhi said with a smile: "Brother Qin and I have been suspicious of you for a long time, let me tell you honestly, just now Brother Qin and Jiao Qizuo both found out, this seven-star sword was used to stab a sword on the corpse after the killing, in order to blame the three Taoist priests of Wei Lingxian."

No one else found the sword, but you did; I didn't find out the first time, you went out to the thatched house, and the sword ran under the bed in the west room, this sword was not taken by you, and you can still grow legs by yourself? This murderer is not you, can it be me? ”

Niu Bianmao's face turned pale with fright, he was a famous daredevil, stunned and young in the village, but the crime of murder was to lose his head!

He kowtowed to Niu vigorously pitifully: "Uncle Seventeen help, Uncle Seventeen help, it's really not the person I killed, they made a mistake......"

Niu Dali let out a long sigh and turned his back from him.

The walls of the courtyard were crawling with villagers watching the excitement, and when they saw this situation, they talked about it and said with disdain:

"I didn't expect that Niu Bianmao is a thing with a human face and a beast's heart, but the daughter-in-law of the Ma family is his third cousin, and he can do it?"

"Alas, I really know people and faces, but I don't know my heart!"

When Niu Bianmao heard these discussions, his whole body went limp, and his huge body collapsed on the ground and was as soft as mud.

"Let's go, if you have anything to say, go up to the court," Cui Zhutou shook the iron chain loudly, and several wolf-like catchers surrounded him.

"Wait," Qin Lin suddenly said to stop.

The black-bellied man knew that the dramatic effect was almost out by now, and he had left a deep impression on Zhang Gongyu and Shi Wei, and it would be too much to pretend again.

Cui Zhutou looked at Qin Lin in a daze, not knowing what this master had to say.

Qin Lin saw that Zhang Gongyu kept shaking the folding fan, so he walked up and said, "Master Zhang, can you borrow this folding fan for a while?" ”

With an eyebrow on the case, Zhang Gongyu was in a very good mood, and immediately handed the folding fan to Qin Lin: "Brother's vision is good, this fan is still Tang Bohu's authentic handiwork, so I will give it to you." Look at this word, it is flowing water, with a clear talent atmosphere, and a bit of Jiangnan smoke and rain......"

Qin Lin didn't say anything, he stood in front of Niu Bian Mao with a fan, "Stand up, manly man, you are scared like this for some trivial things, get up for me!" ”

Niu Bianmao cried and mourned, and said in his heart that if he didn't do well, he would kill his head, is it still a trivial matter? However, listening to Qin Lin's words, there were some other meanings, but he didn't make a mistake, and stood up honestly.

Qin Lin turned his head and asked, "Jiao Chengzuo, how tall are you?" ”

Although he was puzzled, Jiao Chengzuo still replied honestly: "Four feet seven inches (one meter six)." ”

Qin Lin asked Niu Bian Mao again: "How much are you long?" ”

"Five, five feet three inches (one meter eight)."

"That's good," Qin Lin folded the folding fan and handed it to Niu Bianmao: "You take this folding fan, use it as a murder weapon, and slowly stab Jiao Qizuo and stab him in the ribs." ”

Niu Bianmao's face was about to be pulled into a bitter melon: "It's really not the person I killed......"

Niu Dali saw a few clues, and turned his face into a tiger: "What Young Master Qin asks you to do, you just do it honestly, and it won't hurt you!" ”

Hearing this, Niu Bianmao slowly stabbed the folding fan under Jiao Chengzuo's ribs, he was extremely tall, but Jiao Chengzuo was five short figures, this time it was stabbed obliquely from top to bottom, and the angle was not small.

"It's okay," Qin Lin smiled and took the folding fan back, and asked, "Jiao Qizuo, the injuries on the corpse, especially the fatal wound under the ribs, are they from this perspective from top to bottom?" ”

"It's far away," Jiao said, lest there was no basis for his words, and inserted the thin copper rod used to measure the wound into the fatal wound under the corpse's ribs, but saw that it was almost perpendicular to the corpse, that is, if Ma Tang was still standing, the knife was stabbed flat.

Zhang Gongyu was the first to get anxious and stunned: "Could it be that this cow is not the real murderer?" ”
