Chapter 736: The Identity of the Dead

"Ridiculous, who do you think you are? You're just a merchant staying overnight, and you dare to talk nonsense here? As the mayor of the town said, the lantern Chen fell to death, but everyone saw it with their own eyes, could it be that this could be fake? At this time, a burly man beside Liu Yang said coldly.

Li Canghai had already met with a respected person in the town under Liu Yang's introduction at night, so he knew this person.

This person's name is Luo Fu, and he is the leader of the town's guards, and he is a rough and impulsive person.

Before Li Canghai could speak, the rich man named Qian Lin who was standing next to Luo Fu was busy making peace, and said with a smile: "Captain Luo, don't be angry, I think Li Gongzi is an upright person, not like a man who talks about the river, it is better to listen to him." ”

After a pause, Qian Lin arched his hand to Li Canghai with a smile and said, "Li Gongzi, you said that Lantern Chen did not fall to his death by accident, is there any evidence?" ”

Li Canghai shook his head and said calmly: "These are just my guesses, and there is no real evidence yet. ”

"Hmph, just guessing, dare to open your mouth?" Luo Fu said unhappily.

Li Canghai glanced at him and said, "It's too early to draw conclusions about whether to talk about it or not. Give me a little time, and I'll find out the truth. ”

"Haha, you're really ashamed! Do you dare to find out the truth? Luo Fu sneered.

Li Canghai's expression was still indifferent, he turned a deaf ear to Luo Fu's ridicule, turned to Liu Yang and said, "Uncle, I have to trouble you to send someone to inform the yamen again, be sure to let them bring them here." ”

Liu Yang frowned, and said embarrassedly: "Gongzi Li, this matter is not because the old man is unwilling to help. It's just that the yamen has already defined this incident as an accidental fall, and I'm afraid that the yamen will not send people here. ”

Li Canghai smiled indifferently and said, "It's okay, I'll write a letter, you ask someone to bring it to the county order, and he will come." ”

Hearing Li Canghai's words, everyone was stunned.

Luo Fu laughed even more exaggeratedly, almost laughing out of tears, he pointed at Li Canghai and said: "Do you think that you are an official of the imperial court, and you actually want the county order to come with a letter?" ”

The others also looked at Li Canghai with contempt, with a sneer on the corner of their mouths.

Only Qian Lin looked at Li Canghai in surprise and said in disbelief: "Li Gongzi, if you really have the ability to call the county magistrate, I will recognize you as a friend." ”

At this time, Lu Jitong had already gone to the ancestral hall and brought the four treasures of the study.

Li Canghai didn't speak, he directly picked up the wolf pen and wrote it on the paper.

After writing, Li Canghai took out another seal from his arms, took a breath of hot air and covered it.

After that, Li Canghai folded the paper and stuffed it into an envelope.

"Uncle, please find someone you can trust and send this letter to the county government as soon as possible." Li Canghai said.

Liu Yang took the envelope, looked at Li Canghai suspiciously, and then called a man and handed the letter to him.

"Hmph, I don't believe that he can invite the county commander, if the county magistrate comes, I will kowtow to him!" Luo Fu snorted disdainfully.

Li Canghai had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, ignoring what Luo Fu said.

"Uncle, please send someone to move the body to Yizhuang and send someone to guard it." Li Canghai said.

Liu Yang nodded, then called two people and carried the body away from the ancestral hall.

The man who was crying wanted to follow the two to Yizhuang, but was stopped by Li Canghai.

"Li Gongzi, what are you stopping him from?" Liu Yang asked puzzled.

"Oh, I have a few words I'd like to ask him. The old man has been waiting here for a night, he must have been tired, so let's go back and rest early! Li Canghai said.

"This ...... There hasn't been such a fall in this town for many years, so how can the old man sleep? Liu Yang sighed.

"Don't worry, I will find out the truth about this matter." Li Canghai paused, looked at Qian Lin and the others, and said, "You should all go back separately, and leave this matter to me." ”

"Well, I'd like to see how capable you are. However, don't blame me for saying ugly things ahead, if you can't find out why, I'll kick you out of Fufeng Town tomorrow! Luo Fu stared at a pair of copper bell-like eyes, and said with an urn sound.

After finishing speaking, Luo Fu threw down his sleeves and left the ancestral hall.

Seeing Luo Fu leaving, Qian Lin yawned for a long time, and hurriedly smiled at Li Canghai and said, "Since this is the case, then there is Lao Li Gongzi in this matter." ”

After Qian Lin left, the rest of the people also left.

In front of the ancestral hall, only Li Canghai, Lu Jitong, Liu Yang and the crying man were left.

"Who are you? Why weep in front of the dead? Li Canghai stared at the man and asked.

Liu Yang said: "His name is Xia Zhi, and he is Lantern Chen's apprentice. Last night, he was the one who danced the Dragon King Dance. ”

Li Canghai looked up and down at the summer solstice.

This person is not old enough to have a weak crown, he is handsome, and his eyes are red from crying.

"Since you are the apprentice of the deceased, do you know what enemies the deceased had before his death?" Li Canghai asked.

Xia Zhi wiped his tears, shook his head and said: "The master makes a living by tying lanterns, and he has never had a conflict with anyone, let alone an enemy. ”

Li Canghai nodded, and then asked, "How long have you been following the deceased?" ”

"It's been three years now." Xia Zhi said.

"As far as you can see, what caused your master's death?" Li Canghai asked.

Xia Zhi was stunned, tears flashed in his eyes, and he choked up: "Master...... Naturally, he fell to his death by accident. ”

"How many times has your master been elected as the 'Dragon God'? Has he ever done this before? Li Canghai barely left any time for Xia Zhi to hesitate, and asked questions one after another.

"It has been three years since he was elected as the 'Dragon God', and during these three years, the master has often glided down the cliff, and his control over the kite and the direction of the wind can be said to be perfect. But...... Unexpectedly, the master would suffer such an accident. Xia Zhi bit his lip and whispered.

Li Canghai paced and pondered for a moment, and said to Xia Zhi: "People can't be resurrected after death, and the festival mourns and changes." You've searched all night, go back and rest. ”

Xia Zhi shook his head and choked up: "The master has suffered a misfortune, and the apprentice can sleep peacefully?" I'm going to keep a wake for my master. ”

Li Canghai nodded, reached out and patted Xia Zhi's shoulder, comforting him.

After Xia Zhi made a big salute to Li Canghai and Liu Yang, he left the ancestral hall and went to Yizhuang.

Looking at Xia Zhi's back, Liu Yang sighed: "Xia Zhi, this kid, it's really not easy. He has been an orphan since he was a child, and he grew up eating hundreds of family meals in the town, until he worshiped the lantern Chen as his teacher, and he could be regarded as having a home. Unexpectedly, now bad luck has befallen him again. (To be continued.) )
