Chapter 62: The Search for the Bronze Sword

Song Ruilong said: "Of course the county knows these things. What the county doesn't know is where you hid that bronze sword? ”

Zhao Li sneered and said: "It's strange to say, although the bronze sword is a fake, it is used to chop vegetables and meat, it is very fast, I gave that sword to our cottage chef Wang Xiaojiang." He often uses it, and maybe that sword is still in the Cuihua Mountain Cottage. ”

Song Ruilong's tone was slow, and he said, "Thank you for the clues you gave us, take them away!"

Two officials walked in outside the door, and when Zhao Li was about to leave, Song Ruilong said, "Bring Wang Xiaojiang over."

None of the robbers in Cuihua Mountain have been released back, and those who are charged with minor crimes will live in this Ping'an County for a year or two.

When Wang Xiaojiang was brought in, his body was trembling, and after he sat on the chair, his eyes rolled, looking at Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong, and said, "Big ...... Adult, I don't know what happened to the big man and the little one? I've confessed it all, and I haven't hidden anything. ”

Song Ruilong said with a calm face: "No, you still have one more thing to explain."

Wang Xiaojiang turned pale with fright and said, "Adult, I don't know what else is going on?"

Su Xianrong said: "Then let me give you a reminder, did you do a case in Liujiatun in the south of Ping'an County three years ago?"

Wang Xiaojiang suddenly realized and said, "Oh, that case? That case can be said to be the smallest case, at that time, it was King Zhao who took me, Xiao Li and Xiao Liu there. Later, Xiao Li and Xiao Liu died at the hands of those officials when Guo Yongcai was besieging Cuihua Mountain. Now, the only people who participated in the robbery in Liujiatun are me and Zhao Li. ”

Su Xianrong raised his voice and said, "After you and Zhao Li and the others snatched the bronze sword, just leave, why do you still want to kill people?"

Wang Xiaojiang was so frightened that he immediately put his hand on his chest, made a push-out motion, and said, "No, no, no...... We didn't kill anyone. At that time, I put the knife on Liu Tiepan's neck, and before I could ask questions, the Liu Tiepan said, "A few good men, I know what you are here for, I will hand over the bronze sword to you, and I just ask you to spare me and my wife." Of course we agreed, and Zhao Li took the bronze sword in Liu Tiepan's hand and left. After returning to the cottage, Zhao Li originally wanted to make a fortune, but who knew that the bronze sword turned out to be a fake, and its age was not as long as the steel knife in the hands of our king. Our king was angry, I originally wanted to throw the sword off the cliff, I took it and cut a piece of meat, I felt quite fast, I wanted to use the bronze sword as a kitchen knife, as soon as I said it, Zhao Li agreed, so the bronze sword should still be in the cottage of Cuihua Mountain now. ”

Song Ruilong said: "Who revealed the news that the Liu Tieban family has an ancient sword in possession?"

Wang Xiaojiang shook his head and said, "I don't know." We just do what we are told, the boss says who is going to rob today, we just go, as for where the news of the boss comes from, we who only know how to eat all day long, where do we know. ”

Song Ruilong got up and said, "Okay, you can take us to Cuihua Mountain to find that ancient sword now."

"Okay, I'll take Master Song over."

Song Ruilong asked two officials to escort Wang Xiaojiang to Cuihua Mountain.

In the Cuihua Mountain cottage, there is a mess everywhere.

After Wang Xiaojiang brought Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong to the kitchen, Wang Xiaojiang pointed to a pile of dry firewood and said, "That sword is under the dry firewood."

Su Xianrong was the first to walk over, she picked up the dry firewood a little, and saw a bronze sword.

Su Xianrong sent the sword to Song Ruilong's hand and said, "Brother Song, look, there is a 'feather' character on the hilt of the sword."

After Song Ruilong looked at it carefully, he looked at Wang Xiaojiang and said, "Is the bronze sword you grabbed from Liu Tiepan's house this one?"

Wang Xiaojiang lowered his head and said, "Exactly." It's this one. ”

Song Ruilong said a little angrily: "Take it away!"

Song Ruilong retrieved the bronze sword, and after returning to the county office, it was getting late. After they had dinner, Song Ruilong took out the bronze sword in his room and looked at the candle carefully.

After Su Xianrong pushed the door and walked in, she was a little embarrassed to disturb Song Ruilong looking at the sword seriously.

Song Ruilong's eyes glanced at the door, and said, "Rongrong, you came just in time, you can help me analyze this case."

Su Xianrong sat opposite Song Ruilong with a smile and said, "It should be said that our harvest today is quite rich, and tomorrow we will check the one named Hu Wei again, I'm afraid that this case will have eyebrows."

Song Ruilong said very solemnly: "It seems that this Hu Wei is directly related to Liu Piaoxu's death and Liu Tieban's death. Secondly, he is Zhao Hongfei's housekeeper, and his identity is even more special. This man must not die. ”

Su Xianrong took the bronze sword in his hand, and after listening to Song Ruilong's words, he said in surprise: "Brother Song, look here."

Song Ruilong looked down at the top of the hilt and said, "Oh! This character is very similar to the word 'king'. ”

Su Xianrong said affirmatively: "This is exactly the word 'king'. There are more than a dozen blacksmith shops in Ping'an County, but there is only one blacksmith shop surnamed Wang. If I'm not mistaken, this bronze sword should be made by that family. ”

Song Ruilong's eyes lit up, and he immediately got up and said, "Without further ado, let's go find this king blacksmith immediately."

Zhang Meixian just walked to Song Ruilong's door with two cups of soup, and before she could speak, Song Ruilong said: "Mother, you put this soup first, and I'll drink it when I come back."

Before Zhang Meixian could come to her senses, Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong disappeared into the night.

Zhang Meixian put the soup on the table a little helplessly, and said, "This stinky boy, what are you busy with all day?" Directly arrest that Hu Wei to the court, the first trial, won't this case be over? ”

Before Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong walked to the blacksmith shop of Wang Blacksmith, they heard the sound of "clang" striking iron.

In a very conspicuous faΓ§ade room, there was a young man in his forties, shirtless and sweaty, who was playing a hoe by the fire.

The blacksmith saw Song Ruilong and Su Xianrong walking towards his blacksmith shop, he didn't raise his head, and asked, "Do you want a hoe or a shovel?"

Song Ruilong walked up to the blacksmith Wang and said, "Don't use a hoe or a shovel."

"What does the guest officer want to hit?"

Song Ruilong said: "A bronze sword used by Xiang Yu in the Qin Dynasty."

Blacksmith Wang's brows furrowed, and he sneered and said, "I'm sorry, what the guest officer wants, our store can't make it, please ask the guest officer to ask another master!"
