"Raise your head and talk back!" Li Canghai shouted loudly, and the three of them were scared and almost sat on the ground.

The three of them raised their heads tremblingly, but they didn't dare to look at Li Canghai, in their opinion, Li Canghai's eyes were as sharp as a blade, making it difficult for them to face them.

"I ask again, how long have you known Scar?" Li Canghai's eyes were shining, staring at the three of them, and asked indifferently.

The three of them exchanged glances out of the corners of their eyes, and they were all entangled.

There have also been many officials in Zhengyang County, and when those officials tried cases, they either bent into tricks or coerced and enticed, but there were always traces to follow.

However, the seemingly elegant young county magistrate in front of him maintained an indifferent and unfathomable appearance from beginning to end.

"Hui, Hui, the little ones did only meet him in Damiao Village, Lin Laosan was killed by him, and it has nothing to do with us!" The severed finger burst into tears, and kept kowtowing to him.

Li Canghai stared intently at the severed finger, and when he saw his erratic eyes, he knew that he was lying.

Softly letting out a sneer, Li Canghai said lightly: "Broken finger, do you think this official is such a good deceitful person?" When you recall the murder of Lin Laosan, your eyes move to the right, but when the official asks you how long you have known the scar, your eyes always move to the left erratically. Others don't know why, but the official knows it very well. Your eyes moved to the right, which means that you are not lying, and it is indeed not your hand that Lin Laosan was killed. But his eyes moved to the left, and it was obvious that he had been thinking about how to deal with the official when answering the official's question, which was an obvious act of lying, didn't you think the official couldn't see it? ”

Everyone who heard Li Canghai's words was dumbfounded, but they listened to him and then snorted coldly: "Although you didn't kill Lin Laosan, but you are an accomplice to the scar, the death penalty can be avoided, the living crime is inescapable, and the lightest is to be confiscated outside the army and enslaved forever, you have to think about your own life." ”

Li Canghai's words made the three of them fall into panic, and after a while, the severed finger kowtowed and said: "My lord spares my life, we do know the scar, but because the scar committed a murder, we are afraid of being implicated, so we flatly deny it." The little ones did not dare to deceive the adults and begged them to spare their lives. ”

Li Canghai snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "Don't try to deceive this official, this official knows far more things than you. If there is any more deception, the sin will be increased by one degree, and it will not be forgiven! ”

The three of them trembled with fright, and they almost fell to the ground, in their eyes, Li Canghai was a demon, holding their lives in his hands, where did they dare to lie?

"The little ones don't dare, the little ones don't dare." The three of them knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic, trembling.

"Let me ask you, do you know if Scar and Wang Buquan's housekeeper know each other?" Li Canghai nodded and asked.

"Recognize ...... Know. ”

"Is there a grudge between them?" Li Canghai then asked.

"Lord Hui, there is no grudge between them, on the contrary, the housekeeper has asked Scar for help." Severed Finger replied honestly.

Li Canghai's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam, and he asked quietly, "Do you know what the housekeeper helps with the scar?" ”

Severed finger shrunk his neck and said, "This ...... We don't know. ”

"You'd better think about it carefully, if you are found out and you have something to hide, the consequences will be very serious!" On Chang Feng's meaty face, a fierceness appeared, and he pointed at a few people and shouted.

Li Canghai did not stop Chang Feng, for interrogation, he often had to be graceful and powerful to be effective, with Chang Feng, a seemingly fierce guy, he went to blackface again.

The severed finger trembled with fright, and hurriedly recalled: "My lord, although we don't know the purpose of the housekeeper's search for the scar, but the scar has revealed some news to the little one. ”

Li Canghai asked Chang Feng to retreat, he stared at the severed finger and asked, "What news?" ”

He gave the little one twenty miles of gold, and asked the little one to buy some explosives for the opening of the mountain. And said that after the deed is completed, there will be more money for the small ones. Severed Finger said hurriedly.

"Did he say what the explosives were for?" Li Canghai asked with a slight frown.

Severed Finger shook his head: "No, he only lets the small ones buy explosives, but he is very cautious about the rest." ”

Li Canghai fell into deep thought, this is really getting more and more bizarre, what is it that the housekeeper asked Scar to help? Even the explosives were used.

Gunpowder was a contraband in the Tang Dynasty, and it was not allowed to be purchased without official documents from the imperial court, and gunpowder was usually used to blow up mountains, and was not very useful for other purposes.

"What is unusual about the scars during this time?" Li Canghai pondered for a moment and asked.

"It's not abnormal, but during that time, he often went to Damiao Village." Severed Finger recalled.

"Damiao Village?" Chang Feng was a little surprised, "What did he do in Damiao Village?" ”

"I don't know, he never told us." Severed Finger shook his head and replied honestly.

Li Canghai rubbed his eyebrows, he closed his eyes, and went through the clues in his mind.

First, the housekeeper poisoned them to prevent them from blocking the Yellow River breach, and then killed the scar to extinguish the mouth, and now he found the scar to buy explosives, and at the same time he also went to Damiao Village to .......

All this seems to point in one direction - the Yellow River.

"The Yellow River, the Yellow River ......." Li Canghai muttered a few words, he suddenly figured out the key, opened his eyes suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "I know." ”

"My lord, what do you know?" Chang Feng asked in surprise.

"It's just my guess right now, and it's still a guess that needs to be verified. Changfeng, how is the flood in Damiao Village receding now? Li Canghai asked in a deep voice.

Chang Feng didn't understand, why he suddenly asked about the flood, he scratched his head and said: "Back to my lord, the Ministry of Industry sent someone to dredge the flood, the flood in Damiao Village has receded a lot, and the weather has improved these days, and the embankment has been basically repaired." ”

Li Canghai stood up from his seat and said in a deep voice, "Let's go, go to Damiao Village." ”

After walking a few steps, the vigorous exercise suddenly ripped at the wound, and he leaned against the cell door in pain, and smoked cold air.

Chang Feng followed behind him in a daze, and said cautiously: "My lord, your injuries have not yet healed, and if you are so tired, I am afraid it will be harmful to your body!" ”

Li Canghai suddenly coughed a few times, spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, and he secretly cursed damn, this is much more serious than the injury he received when he was in the Hades Palace.

At that time, it was just some skin trauma, but this time it almost killed him.

"It's okay, I can hold on." Li Canghai took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and walked forward.

Seeing this, Chang Feng's face rose with a look of worry.
