Chapter 6 Suddenly, the world is hot and cold
Before, everyone was still boasting, but as soon as he went to the county seat, he became a suspect apprentice, this identity change and huge gap, so that the little carpenter was a little confused, he subconsciously wanted to break free, but was held down by several familiar Liu family members next to him, and at this moment, a man with a cold face came to him, took out a black box from his waist, and put it on the little carpenter's chest.
Gun.
The little carpenter broke into the docks, naturally knowing what this thing was on his chest, and also knew the result of the man pulling the trigger, so he didn't dare to struggle any more.
At this time, he also recognized the person in front of him who was wearing a public uniform and had a fierce face.
It was the poor man who glanced at him halfway.
The little carpenter did not move, and the man did not make any further movements, but gave him a cold look, and then pointed the muzzle of the gun at what he was holding in his hand and asked, "What is this?" β
The little carpenter replied, "Food, and wine." β
The man motioned for someone else to take it, and then said, "Open it." β
Someone reached out to grab something, but the little carpenter didn't insist and let people take it, and then after the man opened it, he said to the man: "Sheriff, it's Zhang Jipu's sauce pork knuckle and sauce pork liver, a bag of peanuts, this wine should be from Deyuelou." β
The man stared at the little carpenter and said, "Zhang Jipu and Deyue Lou are in the county, where did you go to buy them?" β
The little carpenter nodded and said that my master commanded it.
The person who inspected next to him stretched out his hand, took a piece of pork liver with sauce and put it in his mouth, chewed it deliciously, and then said to the man: "Sheriff, we saw this baby when we rushed over, and if you count the hours, there should be nothing wrong with him." β
The man quietly removed the black box and said casually, "I know. β
He turned around and walked inside, and the guy who was holding the food did not return it to him, but followed behind, and the little carpenter did not care about the food, and asked, "Where is my master?" Where is he? β
There was an accident on the construction site, and someone died, and Na Dayong even said that his master was a suspect, and all the things piled up, making the little carpenter a little overwhelmed.
The head is a little confused.
But what he is most concerned about is the whereabouts of his master.
The man known as "Chief Lin" ignored him, and the other messenger beside him didn't pay attention either, only Dayong, who was dragging him next to him, said with a hateful face: "We also want to ask you, where is your master?" β
The little carpenter asked, "What do you mean?" β
Dayong said: "Your master harbored evil intentions, and before he finished work, he sent the workers away, and it didn't take long for him to kill the old horse, and Erniu also knocked him unconscious...... Think about it, there are old and young, and the two children in the family have not grown up, although Erniu has no guests, but the old lady is in her fifties, and her back is still hunched, what will you do if you let these two families be old and young? β
Dayong chattered in the little carpenter's ear, and the little carpenter listened to a sentence - the master killed someone?
Master killed?
It's impossible, Master has traveled all over the world in this life, although he has a bit of a strange temper and is good at drinking, but he has never done anything evil, let alone killed someone.
And he has a good relationship with the two Liu family members who are guarding the construction site, and they have no grievances in the past and no hatred in the near future, why kill them?
The little carpenter closed his eyes, and there was another stinging pain in the corner of his right eye.
There was a tendon on the side of his temple, and it was constantly jumping, and it was so sudden that it made him spin around, and after a while, he heard someone call out respectfully, "Chief Lin." β
The little carpenter opened his eyes and saw the middle-aged man with a straight face appear in front of him, he waved to the little carpenter and said, "Come here." β
The others immediately let go of the little carpenter and walked over him.
The little carpenter followed Chief Lin to a wall in the courtyard, there was no one here, so Chief Lin glanced at him, and then said, "What's your name?" β
The little carpenter knew the identity of this public man - in the former Qing Dynasty, he was called a patrol, and when he arrived in the Republic of China, he was called a policeman, but Qiancheng is located in a remote area, and the current situation is turbulent.
When he was working these days, he had heard of this person's reputation and knew that his name was Lin Yimin, and he was a well-known figure in the entire Chenyuan Dao, whether it was related to the officials above, or the local squires, or even the bandits who gathered in the mountains and forests.
It is precisely with this ability that he can sit in such a position in this troubled world.
The little carpenter didn't dare to talk nonsense, and honestly finished telling himself about the situation.
When the man heard this, he smiled noncommittally, and then said: "This matter is more complicated, you don't have to wander around these days, and if there is any situation, I have to ask you at any time to understand." β
He was about to leave, but the little carpenter stopped him and asked, "My master will definitely not do such a thing, it will definitely not be him." β
The man stopped, thought for a moment, and then asked, "By the way, I heard from them, what did your master teach in Luban before?" β
The little carpenter hurriedly denied: "He is a carpenter, who helps people build houses, Lu Ban teaches something, he knows a little, he just helps people break the evil, and walks the skills of the rivers and lakes." β
Chief Lin asked, "Is there an enemy?" β
The little carpenter shook his head and said, "What kind of enemy do we have when we make houses?"
Having said that, the little carpenter's heart was "groaning".
He suddenly remembered something.
Could it be the ghost of the person who put the curse on the new house before?
As soon as he thought of this possibility, the little carpenter immediately remembered many thingsβordinary people were disgusted with curses, and the disgusting mediums were dirty things, and the more ruthless ones used animal entrails and corpses, and those who used the corpses of unborn babies as mediums belonged to the more vicious and ferocious kind.
Why?
Because the baby had to go through a lot of hardships to come to this world and enjoy the beauty of this world, but he died before he was born, and the resentment in his heart was actually stronger than the resentment of any living person.
There are two kinds of this, one is congenital lack of nutrition, the mother is sick, and there is no way to abort, and the other is terrible, that is, for the sake of this layout, it can be deprived of the right to give birth.
The resentment of the latter is simply outrageous.
And the person who creates this kind of situation is definitely a very terrible person who damages yin morality.
Previously, Lu Da had chatted with the little carpenter, and felt that although the Liu family spent money to settle the matter, the people behind the scenes may not be willing to give up, and maybe they will make a move.
These days, they're staying here to prevent this.
Is it possible that the person who shot behind the back, he did not continue to do anything on the house, but directly tore the veil of warmth and affection, and attacked their ordinary people?
The little carpenter didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly told Chief Nalin about the situation.
When Officer Lin heard this, he pouted noncommittally, while the duke next to him said: "If that's the case, then the matter will be troublesome, and it will also involve vendetta in the rivers and lakes - people like you who walk the rivers and lakes and string the docks are getting into trouble everywhere, who knows if it's something that happened here, or a grudge caused elsewhere?" β
He was nagging beside him, but Chief Lin didn't stop him, but after he finished speaking, he asked the little carpenter a few more words, and then said: "This matter is a bit complicated at the moment, everyone's statement is different, after watching the scene here, take me to the place where you live to take a look." β
The little carpenter knew that Lin Yimin had a lot of power, so he didn't dare to refuse, and led the people to the shed.
Although the Liu family prepared a guest room for the master and apprentice in the old house, Lu Da was a bad temper and liked to sleep on the construction site, so he didn't have to toss back and forth, and he could also guard the construction site, so he lived in the shed with everyone, but there was an independent cubicle, and the master and apprentice lived here.
When he came to the shed, Lin Yimin immediately led people to search, there was actually nothing to search here, and after a while, the focus fell on the huge wooden box.
Lin Yimin asked the little carpenter to open the wooden box.
The little carpenter complied, and after the wooden box was opened, it was divided into several layers, and the upper layer was a little empty, because the axes, saws, planers, chisels, knives, drills, hammers and ink fountains, multi-angle rulers, multi-line lewrs, and other tools were all placed in the construction site, and there was no time to clean up, and the middle layer was the change of clothes of the master and apprentice, and the bottom layer was some mahogany charms, short wooden swords, bottles and jars of gadgets, and then there was the ocean wrapped in red paper.
Most of these oceans are honorariums for breaking evil and peace in the past, and some are Lu Da's own savings.
Nothing else.
After Lin Yimin checked, he asked people to collect those peach wood talismans and the like, and the little carpenter said it, so he didn't dare to say much, and then the two dukes went out, and before leaving, they told him not to run around these days, just here, there may be some things that need to be found for him in the future.
The little carpenter was at a loss at the moment, so he could only nod his head.
After the public explained the explanation, he left with the old housekeeper of the Liu family, because the police who managed public security were supervised by the squire, and the eldest son of the Liu family was still following He Jian in the provincial capital, so they were very polite to the people of the Liu family.
The little carpenter was flustered, and when he was gone, he felt his stomach rumbling and hunger, and when he stretched out his hand, he remembered the food he bought from the county town, and after he took it away, he didn't return it.
He couldn't sit still and wanted to go out to the construction site to check out, but there were two Liu family members blocking the door and he was not allowed to leave.
The little carpenter had no choice but to go back to his room and stay, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.
The next day he woke up with a push, and there was a cry outside the door, and he got up, and saw the housekeeper's son Dayong standing in front of the bed, while the other two were making the wooden box, and pulling out the ocean and money from the lowest level.
The little carpenter hurriedly got up to stop him, but he grabbed Dayong by the chest and shouted, "What are you doing? β
The little carpenter pointed to the money and said, "The money belongs to my master!" β
Dayong pushed him to the ground with disdain, and then said: "I know, but the two members of my Liu family were killed by your master, and this money is for their relatives......"
