Chapter 60: It's Another Dead ......
Su Mu sat there for a long time without speaking, saying that it was impossible not to be shocked, it was a long way from Jian City to here, and this murderer followed them all the way?
Or, is it pure coincidence?
Things in the world can't be written without coincidence, but they can't be so coincidental, right?
"Master?" Nian Xiu whispered, "Are you okay?" The minion just took a look, do you want to see it for yourself? Horizontal and vertical here is Yucheng, there are people from King Rui, even if those pickled things catch up with us, they don't dare to do it in a grand manner. ”
For now, it's safe.
"Whose people are they? And who did it? Su Mu was full of questions.
On the day of the death of the Marquis of Dingyuan, Su Mu's identity was special, and he didn't dare to expose it easily, so he didn't dare to investigate many details in detail.
Su Mu faintly felt that she seemed to have seen it somewhere, but to this day, she didn't remember it.
"Let's go!" Su Mu walked out.
Walking to the courtyard, Su Mu remembered something, "What about him?" ”
"Which one?" Nian Xiu blurted out.
Su Mu's eyebrows furrowed.
Nian Xiu suddenly realized, "Oh, oh, oh, Commander Shen!" He had already taken Zhou Nan to walk in circles, this should be on the street! ”
"I really can't be idle, I'm afraid that King Rui doesn't know, he is wandering around here." Su Mu kept a calm face and walked away.
Nian Xiu patted his head, a little annoyed, the master asked, why didn't he react immediately?
Actually, it's a beat slower.
Out of the door, out into the street.
There was a crowd of people on the street, and because of this incident, there was a lot of discussion.
Nian Xiu led the way in front, Su Mu's eyes were slightly gloomy, and his steps were hurried.
Walking to the place of the incident, Su Mu squeezed into the crowd with Nian Xiu, and the people from the government had already come, and the officials blocked the people, avoiding the approach of the idle people, and ruined the scene of the killing.
Su Mu stood there, looking at the scene in front of him, and his mind was the death of the Marquis of Dingyuan's Mansion and Aunt Song.
Really, it's not much different.
"My lord, look here!" The official shouted.
Futai stepped forward to check, this look was amazing, and his scalp was numb with fright, "How, how can this be?" ”
"It's heaven's punishment!" The official said in a low voice.
Because of the distance, the noisy surroundings, and those people whispering to each other, Nian Xiu didn't hear clearly, but Su Mu could understand the lip language, and naturally knew what they were talking about.
Heavenly punishment?
What is Heavenly Punishment?
The corpse was kneeling in the direction of the city gate, bleeding from the seven orifices, which was very similar to Aunt Song's death that day, except that one was facing the window and the other was facing the door, which was the same.
The bodies were carried away, and the crowd dispersed.
Su Mu didn't leave, but led Nian Xiu into the shop on the street and ordered a bowl of noodles.
The owner of the noodle stall was also enthusiastic, "Noodles, come on!" Two guest officers, eat while it is hot. ”
"Boss, what's going on over there?" Nian Xiu asked, "How can you die in a good manner?" ”
The noodle stall owner shook his head, "The passing year is not good!" ”
"Why do you say that people nowadays are so ruthless, kill people if they kill, and kneel on the street to make them look like this." Nian Xiu sighed, "Look weird and scary! ”
Ordinary people have always liked to be lively, and when something like this happens, it is inevitable to chew a few words.
The boss stepped forward, "Isn't it?" Our Yucheng has always been peaceful, who knew that such a thing happened today, it was really weird, I looked at that person's death, it was like a heavenly punishment! ”
Hearing the word "heavenly punishment" again, Su Mu's hand twisting the chopsticks froze slightly, and he couldn't help but look up and look at the boss sitting opposite, "What is it, heavenly punishment?" ”
"There is a saying here, that is, those who have sinned deeply will be punished by heaven, and their blood will be shed, and they will kneel to heaven and earth to ask heaven and earth for forgiveness." The boss said, "This is, God's punishment!" ”
Su Mu frowned, "Killing is killing, and it is still punished by heaven?" ”
"Many years ago, the specific ...... We can't remember the years, there have been such things, all of them died like this overnight. The boss got up.
When a guest comes to eat noodles, he naturally has to greet them.
"You say, it's all about this way of dying? Didn't catch the murderer? Su Mu asked.
The boss shook his head, "Heavenly punishment, how can there be a murderer, it is a disaster sent by God, no one can avoid it!" At that time, this incident was quite troublesome, but in the end, the government ordered that no one should discuss it anymore, and it was settled. ”
"The person who died today usually bullied men and women?" Su Mu asked.
The boss was stunned, "Not really." ”
"Scourge the township?" Su Mu asked again.
The boss still shook his head.
"Then why was he punished by heaven?" Su Mu was puzzled.
The boss couldn't justify himself, so he immediately turned around and left to greet the guests.
"I didn't do anything bad, why was I punished by heaven?" Nian Xiu didn't understand, "You said, if this person does a lot of evil and is killed by a thunderbolt, then it may be that God has long eyes, but he ...... This is not, that is not, is God punishing you wrong? ”
Su Mu fiddled with the noodles in the bowl, "Go and ask who is dead." ”
"Yes!" Nian Xiu got up and left.
Su Mu ate noodles slowly.
The shadows on his side were blocked, and two people sat down.
Shen Dongzhan sat down, then frowned, and turned his head to glance at Zhou Nan.
Zhou Nan was frightened, and immediately stood up, "Go shopping." ”
After Zhou Nan left, Shen Dongzhan looked at Su Mu without a moment, she was wearing a moon-white robe today, she was very plain, and she would have thought that this was a real eunuch when she stopped on the street.
"Come out and see what's going on?" Shen Dongzhan asked.
Su Mu lowered his head and ate noodles, "Could it be that I look at you?" ”
"It's lively and beautiful, but it's not easy to do." Shen Dongzhan shouted, "Boss, come to the bowl of noodles." ”
The boss shouted from afar, "Okay, here we are!" ”
Su Mu frowned, "Eating breakfast, is it still unpleasant?" ”
"Just because you don't have an appetite doesn't mean you don't have a thirst for knowledge." Shen Dongzhan twisted two chopsticks, rested them on the table and pressed them twice, making a clear crisp sound, "You must not believe in this matter of heavenly punishment." ”
Su Mu's face did not change, if the heavens really had eyes, she would not have been allowed to crawl out of the pile of dead people alive in the past. "Dongchang has killed so many people over the years, if there is really a heavenly punishment, it should be split in Dongchang first." Shen Dongzhan laughed, "Since Brother Su is safe and sound, presumably this heavenly punishment cannot be counted." ”
Su Mu glanced at him coldly, "If people don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!" Therefore, if a man is his own, what will God do to me? ”
Shen Dongzhan was stunned, this crooked reasoning......
"What else do you want to say?" Su Mu continued to eat noodles, "Let's leave after speaking, I don't want King Rui's people to see that you and I are together, and when the time comes, I will think that we are willing to fall, and we are actually in the same stream as Jinyiwei!" ”
Shen Dongzhan frowned, who is willing to fall?
"Su Mu!" Shen Dongzhan spoke, "Aren't you worried?" From the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to Yucheng, the road is far away, and the murderer seems to have been following behind. I went to ask, this person is usually a good gambler, nothing else is wrong, there is no wife at home, alone! ”
So why would such a person be punished by heaven?
Not long after, Nian Xiu came back, and the news he got was the same as what Shen Dongzhan said.
The man who died was silent and did not like to communicate with people. This person is alone, his family is surrounded by walls, and he usually relies on doing some casual work to make a living, and he has no major habits, at most, he goes to the gambling house to go around, and owes dozens of taels of silver to the gambling house, and he is temporarily unable to repay.
That's all, that's all!
is such an inconspicuous flat-headed person, who died on the street in such a tragic way, it really makes people wonder, who did he offend?
"Could it be someone from the gambling house?" Nian Xiu really can't think of anyone who would be full of food and kill such a person.
Su Mu pursed his lips, "Since you are an unknown person, burying the body after death is the best choice." ”
Deep in the mountains and cold, dig a pit and bury it, who can find it? Or throw it into the wolf's den, and when you see it again, it's a pair of bones, who knows who this is?
Yes, there are many ways to make a person disappear quietly, and it is the stupidest to make a big fanfare!
"If you kill someone, you can still get the money back?" Shen Dongzhan asked, "Who do you want?" ”
Is it possible to go to the Hades Palace to collect debts?
No one spoke again, this thing is really weird, and it is even more disturbing, if it is the same murderer, this invisible person...... From the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to here, there were so many of them, and they didn't realize it at all.
Just think about it, it's enough to send chills down your spine and tingling your scalp.
This happened in the daytime, there was a lot of discussion on the street, and Li Jue, the king of Rui, was naturally busy dealing with these things, so it was his grandfather's place, and now at this time, gossip must not be allowed to spread out of Yucheng and reach the ears of the emperor.
At night, Su Mu quietly led Nian Xiu to the government office.
"The body is in the morgue." Nian Xiu had already inquired clearly, "King Rui ordered to block the news, and a special person will investigate this matter, and whoever dares to discuss it will be arrested and tortured." ”
The corners of Su Mu's eyebrows raised slightly, "The mouth of the people is more important than the mouth of the people, where can he block this mouth." ”
The two entered the morgue in the dark, but as soon as they entered the door, someone broke in through the window.
Four people, looking at each other.
"It's me!" Shen Dongzhan was the first to speak.
Su Mu didn't say anything, he knew that these two would not be too peaceful, but he didn't expect to come along, even if he came secretly, it was not appropriate to do it, so he could only endure it for the time being.
Lifting the white corpse cloth, Zhou Nan and Nian Xiu stood on both sides of the corpse platform, each examining the corpse with their hands and feet.
"Master, there really is an eye in the palm of your hand." Nian Xiu was shocked, "This murderer ...... Have you been following us? ”
It's creepy to think about.
"Don't scare yourself yet, test again." Having said that, Su Mu's tone was a little heavy.
Zhou Nan suddenly froze, and then said "Huh".
"Do what?" Shen Dongzhan scolded lightly, "Make this kind of crutch sound? ”
Zhou Nan coldly picked up the corpse's middle pants, "Master, this is another dead ......"
Su Mu's eyebrows furrowed.
Nian Xiu snorted coldly.
In the dark, Zhou Nan stopped in time, laughed hoarsely, and said seriously, "It's a dead man!" ”
A certain part of the corpse was missing, and the light of the fire fold was faint, but it was clearly seen that the injury was an old injury, not a new injury before death, nor was it caused after death.
"Master, this man ...... Didn't you come out of the palace? Nian Xiu was also taken aback.
Su Mu was silent and silent.
Shen Dongzhan finally understood why King Rui wanted to block the news.
Dead, probably a eunuch!
If you can't figure it out, this matter has something to do with the people in the palace......
