Hua Deguan was indeed in accordance with Qin Lin's instructions, and he was in a hurry to report the case as soon as the case occurred, so anxious that he didn't even know whether the deceased was a man or a woman, whether he committed suicide or he killed him, Qin Lin asked on the road, he really couldn't cry and laugh.

Fortunately, Luoma City is not far from Qin Lin's house, and the Straw Hat Hutong goes west, and goes out of Xuanwumen and goes south along Xuanwumen Street to the end, which is Luoma City.

On the way, he met Huang Jiashan of Wanping Zhi County, who was also riding a horse and leading the officials to the same destination, and Qin Lin came to the well in Luoma City with him.

Qin Lin didn't rush to observe the corpse, but looked around, this is the southernmost location of Luoma City, and further south is a piece of abandoned houses and mass graves, the ground around the well has no mule and horse hoof prints and dung, it seems that it is not often used.

The ground guard, the three Jinyi lieutenants who patrolled the streets, and the four catchers from Wanping County were already waiting by the well, and the beggar's leprosy head was also beside him, and the body was found by him, and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw Qin Lin and Hua Deguan coming.

The bodies from the well have been fished up.

The deceased was a man, sleek and undressed, and the cause of death could not be more obvious, because his entire head had been cut off and he had disappeared, a neat knife on his neck, and the pale skin, yellowish fat layer, and pink muscles of the wound had been pale and soft by the water, and they were pulled down by his own contraction, like a pullover that had been torn off.

The man was of average height, neither fat nor thin, and had no features such as large moles or birthmarks.

Huang Jiashan was not polite to Qin Lin, and the land protection was under the control of his parents, so he ordered: "What's the matter? You ask the people to come and dig up the wells to see if there is anything else. ”

It is definitely not a good errand to dig the well where the headless corpse is hiding, but the Shangguan ordered it down, and the land security had no choice, so he had to find a strong man, and carefully searched the well with a claw fence, and found a few rusty horseshoes and a few pieces of broken porcelain, all of which were covered with algae, and it seemed that they had fallen into the well a long time ago, and had nothing to do with this case.

Qin Lin stretched out his head to the wellhead to take a look, and touched his nose: "This well is only more than two zhang deep, it is best to send someone down to fish it to be insured." ”

When the earth guard heard this, his face turned green, and now in September, the autumn wind is bleak and the weather is cold, and the well is bitterly cold, and there is a headless corpse hidden...... Huang Jiashan also hesitated and said, "General Qin, I have already fished it with a thin claw fence a few times, do you think it?" ”

"Sir, let's go!" The pro-soldier captains enthusiastically applied for battle.

Qin Lin smiled and ordered someone to fetch a candle.

Others didn't know what he wanted the candle for, but they saw Qin Lin light the candle and hang it into the well with a rope, and when the candle was still burning on the water, he nodded reassuringly and made a gesture.

A pro-soldier lieutenant immediately jumped into the well.

Everyone was taken aback, but saw that the captain did not jump directly into it, but grabbed the rope of the well and slipped down, and after a moment they heard the sound of water, and knew that he had reached the bottom of the well.

"I was afraid that the air at the bottom of the well would be dirty, so I burned a candle and gave it a try," Qin Lin explained.

Huang Jiashan gave his thumb up: "There are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and General Qin's personal lieutenant is also this!" ”

The bottom of the well was not large, and the captain of the pro-soldier school lit a candle and touched it for a while, and then shouted happily: "Found something!" ”

When I picked it up, it was a peace coin.

The so-called peace money, is the folk privately cast, the meaning of auspicious copper coins, and the same shape of the money, but the word on the top is not a Kaiyuan Tongbao, but rich and prosperous, family peace and the like, carry with you to keep safe.

The pro-soldier captain came up, and several brothers accompanied him to the side to change his clothes, while Qin Lin took the copper coin and looked at it, only to see that the words on it were "many sons and many blessings".

Hey, it's strange, Qin Lin gave the money to Huang Jiashan to see, "Brother Huang, there's something wrong with this peace money, right?" ”

Huang Jiashan nodded: "That's right, it's generally rich and auspicious, although it is also auspicious, it is generally written on the bedroom door at home, what is not good, why write this sentence?" ”

Could it be that this person has not given birth to a son for a long time, so he deliberately cast these four words on the peace money, which means to ask for a son?

Qin Lin was about to track down in this direction, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw the leprosy-headed beggar's expression wandering and wanting to speak, so he asked with a smile: "This friend, if you have anything to say, this official will not only not embarrass you, but will also take care of you in the future." ”

Huade Guan said helpfully: "Lao Lai, you have something to say quickly, our Chief Qin is the fairest, you are a beggar leader here in Xuannanfang, Chief Qin can do whatever it is convenient, and you will wake up with a smile when you sleep." ”

For people like leprosy, Jin Yiwei wants to take care of him, so that he can fly to the sky, Jin Yiwei wants to fix him, so that he can survive and not seek death, he immediately made a decision, and immediately knelt down and said: "So that the chief knows that this kind of copper money is used by the knife hand, because, because they are doing the work of cutting off children and grandchildren, they are most afraid that God will retribution and cut off their children and grandchildren, so they carry this kind of peace money with them to bless him with many sons and blessings." ”

The knife hand is specifically responsible for purifying people's bodies, and others don't know their inside story, but the castrated leprosy head knows it well.

Qin Lin suddenly realized, and immediately ordered his subordinates to follow this clue to find out which of the little knife hands of the Jing Division had disappeared in the past two days, and his physical characteristics could also match.

Unexpectedly, an hour later, the captain of the pro-soldier came back and reported that these days, there were not a hundred but eighty missing swordsmen in the Beijing Division.

Qin Lin was taken aback, and said in his heart, could it be that the knife makers went to hold an industry conference to carry out technical exchanges and cooperation in castration surgery?

As a result, he asked carefully, but Qin Lin didn't know whether to cry or laugh: these little swordsmen in Jingshi, except for a few who are official, most of them are castrated for others privately, although the imperial court prohibits it, and no one took this matter seriously before, this industry has gradually developed and grown with the increase of nameless whites.

Recently, Qin Lin has cracked down on criminal groups that abduct and castrate children, and the little knife hand has more or less connections with these criminal groups - because the kidnappers themselves will not castrate, and if they get children, they have to ask the little knife hand to help! So the little swordsmen were afraid of harming the pond fish, so they went out to hide, and nine of the ten in the Jingshi ran away.

In this way, it is not known who died here.

Grandma's, do you still have to rely on the old way? Qin Lin touched his nose and gave an order: "Close the door and let the fat man go!" ”

Lu Yuanzhi held the raw cowhide bag and muttered: "Needless to say, this is another brother's matter, Sir Qin, you are really my brother!" ”
