Chapter 105: The East Detective Factory
"Who died?" Hearing that his father-in-law said such a sentence without a reason, Mr. Ye asked curiously.
"It's the man, the one who cut off my right arm......" the silver-haired elder muttered.
"How do you know?" Mr. Ye became even more curious.
"Because he is my own brother...... "The silver-haired elder sighed, "and just now I suddenly felt a pain in my right rib, as if it had been pierced by a sharp blade. Something must have happened to him......"
"Your own brother?" Mr. Ye was confused, "Then why did he cut off your arm?" ”
"It's a long story to talk about. His father's name is Ye Xiangtian, his name is Ye Wentian, our brother originally lived in Yejiabao, Liuzhou Prefecture, Guangxi, and his family had a lot of land, which was considered a local family. My brother likes to make some friends in the green forest, but he doesn't know the good and the bad, that year he stood up for a friend, killed a son of a family, who knew that the son of the family had a great background, his father was angry, and brought someone to the door. I was badly wounded and passed out, and when I woke up, I found my parents, wives and daughters all over the house, all killed. After I recovered from my injuries, I went to inquire about the origin of the enemy, only to find out that the enemy was someone I could not deal with at all. So, I became angry with my brother and went after him everywhere, but I paid no attention to his explanation, and only wanted to take his surname. But he was very smart, knew my weaknesses, and loved his daughter the most, so he adopted a girl as a shield, so that I was weak several times without success. Later, I chased him to Jiujiang and seriously injured him, thinking that this time I would be able to take his surname, but he colluded with the local prefect Zou Jiaren, designed to surround me, and cut off one of my arms. I fought my way out of the siege and fell unconscious in the wilderness, bleeding too much at that time, I thought I would definitely die, but the lord passed here, rescued me, and even later helped me avenge the murder of my father, and since then I have followed the lord wholeheartedly. You will remember that it was the year when I was seriously wounded, when I returned to this place with my lord, and met you on the way who was dying of cold, and I saw that you were somewhat similar to my daughter, so I took you to my knees. ”
The child naturally remembers this. It's just that since the father-in-law knows the whereabouts of his uncle, why didn't he ...... later?"
"I avenged my father's murder, and I saw it, and my hatred for my brother gradually faded, after all, we are compatriots. In this life, it's just that we will never see each other. I didn't expect him to go ahead of me today......" Speaking of this, Ye Xiangtian shook his head.
Tong Zhou led the people to Zou's house. This time, Zou Jiaren was captured, and there were many more people than when Zou Feng was arrested, with a total of more than 300 people.
When the people came to the door of Zou's house, Tong Zhou asked the guards to smash the door, and after smashing it for a long time, no one came out to open the door. Now the study is lively, and everyone has run over, how can anyone take care of the door.
Tong Zhou saw that no one opened the door, but he was not polite, and directly let the guards bang on the door, knocked the door open, and immediately rushed in. Along the way, I didn't meet anyone from the Zou family, but when I was about to get to the middle of the road, I heard the sound of shouting and killing. Tong Xuan wondered in his heart, he didn't know who was fighting inside, so he pulled out the guy and commanded the soldiers and horses to kill the generals.
When he arrived in the study, the shouting had stopped, and a family was carrying the body from the study. When these guards saw the arrival of officers and soldiers, they were all stunned, and then someone asked, "Which yamen are you from?" ”
"Governor Yamen, come and invite you Lord Zou to take a trip! What's going on? Tong Xuan said, pointing to the corpse.
"It turned out to be the poor master of the governor's yamen." The family member arched his hand and said, "An assassin just came to assassinate my family, and now it has been cleared and the corpse is being carried out." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zou Jiaren in the study walked out. Seeing that the person who came was Tong Zhou, he said with a smile: "It turned out to be Tong Zhutou, something happened in the Shicai Mansion, and I didn't have time to greet it, I don't know what happened to Tong Zhutou with so many people to find this official?" ”
"On the orders of my family, I came to invite Lord Zou to take a trip to the governor's yamen." Tong Xuan arched his hand and said.
"Since Bingyan invited me to come over, then let's go." Zou Jiaren said with a light smile.
"Wait a minute, the little one wants to ask, what's going on?" Tong Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the corpse.
Zou Jiaren smiled and said, "Someone came to take my surname, someone came to save my surname, and the official didn't know what was going on?" If the child catcher wants to take care of it, just take their corpses with them. ”
"Someone came to kill the adult, and someone came to save the adult, it's really strangely tight. Anyway, they all caught up, so the little one took the initiative to go back and bring back the corpses, and see if my family could help Lord Zou find out the other party's origins. Tong Xuan also had a smile on his face.
"That's just right. This is bloody, I look dizzy, and I am tired of catching my head. I don't know what else the child catcher commands? "The other party is not good, how can Zou Jiaren not see it. That's why I can say this.
"Dare to ask Lord Zou, how many corpses are there, which ones are here to assassinate, and which ones are here to save adults?" Tong Zhou asked.
"There are fifteen of them who came to kill me, all dressed in black, and now all of them are executed." Zou Jiaren pointed to the corpse of the man in black, and Tong Zhou checked it, and it was indeed fifteen. Then, Zou Jiaren pointed to the corpse of the black-robed man, "These people in black-robes came to save me, the number is thirteen, but only five died, and the remaining eight all escaped after the arrival of my nursing home." At that time, my men were only busy dealing with the Assassins, and seeing that they had come to save me, they did not stop me, and let them go, only to blame the boy for coming late. Otherwise, you can run into it. By the way, one of my housekeepers, who was also killed for protecting me, and the body is also here, I only hope that Tong Zhutou will tell the case truthfully and strictly, so that I can administer justice for me and find out the real culprit. ”
"Don't worry, Lord Zou, I will tell you the truth." After Tong Xuan finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Brothers, remember to take the corpse with you when you leave." ”
"Yes!"
"Tong Zhutou, there is no other order now." Zou Jiaren smiled.
"I don't dare to take orders, but before the little one went out, my adult once instructed one thing, saying that there is a treasure in the house, called blood agate, and when you invite the adult, you must bring it."
Dripping Blood Agate! Yue Su initially only ordered Tong Zhou to go to Zou Mansion to get people, and when Tong Zhou gathered soldiers and horses, he reacted, and the most important evidence of blood agate could not be forgotten. So, he told Tong Zhou a thousand times, and asked him not to leave this thing behind when he raised Zou Jiaren.
Hearing Tong Xuan say the blood agate, Zou Jiaren was only slightly frightened, but he was not afraid. I went this time, I was apportioned with Yue Su, and the number of charges no longer mattered. He smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect Bingyan to have heard of this treasure, and the blood agate is now in the dog's bedroom." I asked someone to lead the way, and the head of the boy sent someone to fetch it. ”
After speaking, he sent a family member to lead the way to Zou Feng's yard. Tong Xuan didn't dare to take it lightly, so he specially sent thirty guards to follow his family.
Zou Jiaren had no tricks to play, so naturally there was no ambush, and the guards followed the family to Zou Feng's room, and it was easy to find the blood agate and bring it back.
At the moment, there was nothing else to say, that is, to be polite on the surface, and asked Zou Jiaren to take a sedan chair and go to the governor's yamen together. Of course, those corpses are to be brought with them.
When he came to the governor's yamen, an errand officer entered the door first to report, Yue Su would not go out to greet him again this time, but just said "please".
Tong Zhou held the blood agate, and Zou Jiaren came to the lobby, as soon as he arrived in the hall, Tong Zhou bowed down first, "Lord Qiqi, Lord Zou has been invited, and the blood agate is also brought, please take a look." ”
Yue Su nodded, motioned to Tong Xuan to present the blood agate, stood up and arched his hand at Zou Jiaren, and said, "The student is on official business, and he can't welcome him from afar, and I hope that the teacher will forgive him." Come on, give the teacher a seat. ”
He said this politely, and Zou Jiaren saw at a glance that the son who was lying at the bottom of the stairs and was beaten with his ass blooming. However, Zou Jiaren was still calm and said: "You and I eat the court, naturally it is important to have official duties, and those vulgar etiquette can be avoided." With that, the teacher walked unceremoniously towards the chair prepared for him.
After sitting down, he didn't say anything more, wanting to see what Yue Su planned to do.
Yue Su also sat back on the chair, Tong Xuan presented the blood agate, and the agate was still in the brocade box, Yue Su reached out and opened it, took it out and looked at it. I saw that this agate stone can be the size of a baby, but it looks very strange, very similar to the rakshasa offered in the temple. The color of the agate is also very strange, the lower half is red, blood red, this color is the same as blood. The upper half is transparent, crystal clear, and you can see the color of the public case below.
Yue Su looked at the agate, and Tong Xuan said: "My lord, when my subordinates went to Lord Zou's mansion, they found that the study of the mansion was carrying corpses, according to Lord Zou, some of these corpses were left by the assassin who assassinated him, and some were left by the people who protected him......"
At that moment, Tong Zhou will relay the conversation with Zou Jiaren in the Zou Mansion.
After hearing this, Yue Su wondered, I don't know who wants to kill Zou Jiaren, and who wants to save him. Immediately, he commanded: "Bring the body up and search it carefully." ”
"Yes, sir." Tong Zhou immediately asked the guards to carry the corpse, and searched in the lobby, but on the corpse of the man in black, nothing was turned out, but on the waist of the five black-robed people, a waist plate was found in each of them.
As soon as they saw the words written on the waist card, all the guards were stunned, Tong Zhou was the closest, and he saw it clearly, and after reading it, he hurriedly collected the waist card. Let the guards step aside, walk quickly to the side of the public case, present the waist card, and whisper, "Look, my lord." ”
Yue Su had thought it was the waist card of the Dragon Slaying Gang, but when he picked up a piece and looked at it, his heart was shocked. Because on this waist card, there are four eye-catching characters engraved - East Detective Factory.
