Chapter 128: Bathing Murder

Who knew that Li Canghai smiled slightly: "If there is an accident at Brother Zuo's house, I can't leave, maybe I can help a little." ”

Saying that, Li Canghai asked Chang Feng to stay with Di Qing and Fan'er, and he strode towards Zuo Hongji to catch up.

Seeing this, anger appeared on Wang Buquan's face, and he stomped his foot and followed.

Zuo Hongji was wide and fat, and he was tired and wheezing again and again after not running a few steps.

Li Canghai and the maid were one step ahead of him and arrived at the door of the wing room first.

As soon as he stepped into the chamber, Li Canghai smelled a faint blood, his heart tightened, and the secret said that it was not good, there was a smell of blood in the air, and he was afraid that he would die.

Thinking of this, he raised his foot and kicked over, and the closed door slammed into him.

Li Canghai walked in quickly, there was a screen on the side of the wall in the wing room, and behind the screen was a large wooden barrel half a person high, and the blood seemed to come from there.

At the same time, the maid followed in, and she panted and pointed to the screen and said, "Madame fainted behind the screen." ”

Li Canghai immediately walked over, he bypassed the screen, and saw a woman lying in the barrel, the woman was naked, with a handful of beads in her chest, and the water in the entire barrel turned pale red, but she was already dead.

Zuo Hongji happened to run to the wing room at this time, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly shouted: "Madam! Madam! Then, the strange eyes rolled and fainted.

Seeing this, Wang Buquan hurriedly helped him up, pinched his middle hard, and Zuo Hongji suddenly regained his breath.

"Madame...... Madam, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you! Zuo Hongji lay on the ground and cried with tears.

"Everyone immediately exited the wing room and quickly ordered someone to go to the yamen to report the case." Li Canghai frowned and said with a stern face.

"Go, don't go yet!" Zuo Hongji shouted at the stunned housekeeper like crazy.

"Madam, ma'am, why are you dead, which bastard with a thousand knives killed you, I must avenge you, ma'am!" Zuo Hongji crawled on the ground, howling and crying.

Li Canghai walked to the barrel, she stretched out her hand to probe between the neck of the female corpse, and said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Zun has just died, the murderer should not have left yet, and the mansion will be put under martial law quickly, and no one will be allowed to leave." ”

The king glanced at him, and then ordered him to go down and gather all the people, and not one of them was allowed to go out.

"Will you look into the case?" Wang Buquan asked as he stared at him coldly.

"No, but human life is at stake, so I have to give it a try." Li Canghai said casually.

"Well, if you can find the murderer of my wife, I will promise you this deal!" Zuo Hongji got up suddenly, howling regardless of it.

Li Canghai nodded and said, "I will do my best." ”

He took a closer look at the deceased, whose arms and head were resting on the barrel, and both arms were scratched by the barrel. This indicates that the deceased had been held down on both arms before his death and had struggled, otherwise there would have been no abrasions on the inside of his arms.

The deceased's eyes protruded, his lower eyelids were covered with red spots, and not only that, but he also found a strand of velvet thread between the deceased's mouth and nose.

Li Canghai pondered for a moment, and then ordered someone to dig a hole in the wooden barrel, and the blood suddenly flowed out.

At the beginning of the construction of this chamber, a hole was deliberately left for pouring water, and after the water flowed, Li Canghai stared at the corpse carefully.

In the middle of the night, he stared intently at a naked corpse, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Zuo Hongji didn't care about Li Canghai staring at his wife's nakedness, what he cared about was the murderer, and he swore fiercely in his heart that he would dismantle the murderer.

Wang Buquan was uncomfortable, he moved his body, frowned, and said, "You have been staring at the corpse for a long time, can you see the fame?" ”

Li Canghai didn't answer him, but turned to the maid and said, "Describe everything you see anew." ”

The maid's face was like ashes, she looked at the female corpse lying in the wooden barrel, and said tremblingly: "After the lady left the banquet, she returned to the room, and she said that the weather was hot and wanted to bathe, so I asked people to get a few buckets of water." After that, Madame began to bathe, and then Madame asked me to get my clothes to dry during the day, so I went. But when I returned, I suddenly heard a loud cry from the room, and I hurried to push the door in, only to find my wife fainted in the barrel. ”

Li Canghai clasped his hands to his chest and said in a deep voice: "Where did you go during Madame's bathing?" Have you spotted a suspicious person? ”

"When Madame was bathing, I stood guard in front of the door, and I didn't see any suspicious person." The maid said tremblingly.

Li Canghai nodded, he walked to the wing room and looked around.

This wing room is divided into two parts by bead curtains, the bead curtain is considered a living room before, there are several rows of wooden shelves, and various strange stones are placed on the wooden shelves, and after the bead curtain is the bedroom.

Li Canghai walked to the wooden frames, picked up the strange stones and looked at them.

"You don't go to find out the murderer, but go to play with some stones, if you don't have the ability, get out of the way as soon as possible." Wang Buquan frowned and said angrily.

Li Canghai was not angry, he weighed a transparent stone in his hand, and said: "Zuo Dashan, these strange stones are worth a lot of money, but I don't know which one is the most precious?" ”

Zuo Hongji stood up, walked to a wooden frame in the middle, turned a porcelain vase, and a dark grid suddenly appeared behind the wooden frame.

"The most precious thing is this 'snail jade', which is a treasure that I spent five years searching all over the world to find." Zuo Hongji took out a small wooden box the size of a palm from the dark grid and said.

Li Canghai stared at the wooden box and said seriously: "I have long heard that 'Luohua Jade' is a treasure in the world, but I have never had the opportunity to see it, I wonder if I can open it for a long time?" ”

"Could it be that this 'Luohua Jade' has something to do with the murder of my wife?" Zuo Hongji didn't want to open the wooden box, but when he caught a glimpse of his wife's body lying not far away, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he blurted out a question.

Li Canghai glanced at him in surprise, and said lightly: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, you can't judge until you open it." ”

Zuo Hongji hurriedly opened the wooden box, but when the wooden box was opened, he stood on the spot.

The wooden box was empty, not to mention 'snail jade', not even a single hair.

"My 'Luohua Jade', my 'Luohua Jade' is gone!" Zuo Hongji sat down along the wooden frame with a crunch, and he muttered to himself, as if he had been hooked out of his soul.

Wang Buquan suddenly pointed the finger at Li Canghai, and he snorted coldly: "You already knew that the 'Luohua Jade' was gone, didn't you?" ”

Li Canghai nodded and muttered, "If I'm not mistaken, the murderer is actually here for the 'Luohua Jade', and the murder is just a coincidence." ”
