Chapter 104: Climbing the Wall

After eating, Lu Tingxiu stretched his waist and continued to work hard.

From the chaotic official documents, he took out a thick pile of forestry books and gave them to Xia Qiu, and pretended to be profound: "Look at the land in the mine, whose land belongs to." ”

Xia Qiu lowered his head and flipped through the pages, and then his eyebrows twisted into a line.

The mine in just 20 years, a total of five times, it originally belonged to the Yan family, and then was bought by the Yang family, when the Yang family married their daughter, it was used as a dowry to the Liu family, the Liu family was Meng Lang, and lost to the Xiao family, the Xiao family is a family of merchants, and the life is solid, and then I don't know how to go downhill, I can only marry, and marry my daughter to the Tian family in Yangliu Town, and the mountain falls to the Tian family.

If that's all there is to it, there's nothing suspicious about it.

But the mountains next to the mine have been bought and sold or used as dowries in the past few years, and all of them have been taken into the hands of the Tian family.

Zhong Mingding's family, it is understandable to marry a few more aunts, but the head of the family is not good, not only his wife but also his wealth, in just five years after he was in charge, he successfully killed the third aunt and squandered all the family wealth.

What's even worse is that when he was poor, he didn't forget to climb the wall, and was beaten a few hoes by the man, and he died with a whimper.

This case happened two years ago, and it was quite sensational at the time.

Xia Qiu got up to find Xu Mingming, Xu Mingliang thought for a long time, and patted his head, "That's right, I handled this case at that time." Tian Fuwang also deserved it, he was ugly and loved to shave, and in the end he was killed with a hoe, and his whole face was broken. ”

Xia Qiu muttered: "I can't recognize my face, how can you be sure that the deceased is Tian Fuwang?" ”

"The Tian family identified it." Xu Mingliang was stunned, "Although their room is dead, the other rooms of the Tian family are thriving, and they finally collected his body." ”

The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, Tian Fuwang still has an ancestral house and a field property, and in the end it was divided up by several families, and even fought for who could share more.

"Since the family wealth has been divided, who does the area of the mine belong to?" There is no transfer of ownership in the forestry register, and I don't know who the latest ownership is.

Xu Mingliang was confused when asked, "That area is too barren to build a manor and plant fruit trees, those few houses should be unsightly, and I don't want to fall into the notoriety of greed, so I put it aside and didn't want anyone." ”

Xia Qiu was puzzled, "Since the mountains and forests have no owner, they should belong to the imperial court, why did the government confiscate it?" ”

Xu Mingliang touched his head and said, "This is the management of the household department, but I think most of them are gags from those people and omitted this matter." ”

Since it is an ownerless mountain forest, the thief digging cannot be held accountable before the mastermind is caught.

This Tian Fuwang died at a really good time.

As soon as this person dies, the other head will be excavated immediately, which is expected to be taken care of by the Tian family.

Xia Qiu felt that it was necessary to take a trip to Yangliu Town.

Lu Tingxiu thought that Xu Mingliang was not reliable, and he didn't worry about her going alone, so he took Wei Ge and set off.

Tian Fuwang's death, Lu Tingxiu originally wanted to open the coffin for an autopsy, but the Tian family is a big family in Yangliu Town, and the big family pays a lot of attention to it, don't look at the strength of the private fight, there is not enough evidence, and he will never agree to open the coffin.

Time was of the essence, so I had to plan for another time.

When they arrived in Yangliu Town, Lu Tingxiu took the two of them straight to the teahouse, and told Xia Qiu to reward Mr. Storyteller with ten yuan, wanting to hear the romance of the Tian family.

The old-fashioned old things, Mr. Storyteller came to his mouth, and suddenly his mouth was like a river, "It is said that the Tian family is the top eater of Yangliu Town, and Tian Fuwang is the thirty-fifth generation head of the Tian family......"

When talking about Tian Fuwang's appearance, Xia Qiu interjected, "Old gentleman, don't lie to me, I heard that the head of the Tian family is seven feet tall and looks like Pan An, how can you become a five-foot short man in your mouth, ugly and toothless?" ”

The storyteller knocked on the wood, "You little girl, you know that you are from other places at a glance." Tian Fuwang's hawk head and sparrow brain are not fake, and he has been scared to death by the main room and his aunt, if you don't believe it, you can go out and inquire, and you will know if the old man is lying. ”

In the teahouse, someone suddenly interjected, "Tian Fuwang is indeed ugly." ”

Xia Qiu was not convinced, "How do you know?" ”

"I met him in the temple a few years ago, and he also made a wish to the Bodhisattva, willing to exchange his family wealth for a pretty face, but unfortunately the Bodhisattva not only agreed, but also punished him."

"How?" Xia Qiu said curiously.

"I stepped on the stone steps down the temple and rolled all the way down, broke my leg, and it took more than half a year to recuperate."

Xia Qiu sighed, "It seems that he is really ugly." ”

Late at night, outside the deep mountains and forests, the dim lights are swaying.

One person holds a lamp, and two people hold an iron in their hands, struggling to dig in the grassy forest.

The man with the lamp looked wary and urged in a low voice: "Hurry up, hurry up, it's not good for people to find out." ”

Xia Qiu was sweating profusely, and threw the iron away, "Don't stand and talk without backache, you have the ability." ”

“…… This official is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and is well versed in the way of Confucius and Mencius, how can he do such a big thing. ”

Xia Qiu was so angry that he almost didn't shoot him to death with a shovel.

Fortunately, the coffin was rotten, and Xia Qiu and Wei Ge poked a hole in the side with a shovel, and then dug out the bones.

Wei Ge held two large bone sticks, and Lu Tingxiu picked up the lantern to take a closer look, the bones were intact and there were no cracks.

The three of them inquired about it, and Tian Fuwang couldn't leave it if he broke his leg.

Xia Qiu squatted down and took out the coffin, picked up the teeth and counted them, there were thirty-two in total, even wisdom teeth.

Tian Fuwang lacks a front tooth, and the whole Yangliu Town knows it. It seems that the murderer knocked his face to pieces, and in addition to not wanting people to see what the deceased looked like, he also didn't want his teeth to be pierced.

It's a pity that the predecessor was brainless and did not strictly investigate the case, but hastily settled the case.

The murderer, most of whom was a scapegoat, was sentenced to death despite his repeated injustices.

Stuffing the bones back into the coffin and filling it with dirt, Xia Qiu knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed three times, "This great immortal, it's no wonder, we are also trying to find out the case as soon as possible." ”

Wei Ge did this kind of immoral thing for the first time, and said with palpitations: "Sister Xia, the people of the Tian family won't find out, right?" ”

"Don't worry, the Tian family is greedy and ruthless, how can you remember this unlucky ghost." There were no burial goods in the coffin, and the grass around it was taller than a human head, so it can be seen that since Tian Fuwang was buried, no one has come to ask.

All the way down from the mountain, Xia Qiu was puzzled, "My lord, do you think Tian Fuwang is dead, or is he alive with a different identity?" ”

What the hell is he trying to do? Once had a lot of money, he shouldn't be moved by the wealth, and judging from the fact that he married many aunts, he clearly went to the mine.

How can such a scheming person be a loser who squandered his family wealth?

Wei Ge said amazingly, "I think he did all this to change his face." ”

"Ridiculous." Lu Tingxiu directly gave it a no, "The body is skinned, and it is subject to the parents, how to change it?" ”

"Maybe it can really be changed." Wei Ge argued, "When I was young, I heard my father and mother say that there is a secret technique in martial arts, which can change faces. When a person is alive, use a blade as thin as a cicada's wings to quickly cut off the skin of the face and replace it with another person's face......"

Xia Qiu was so frightened that she was covered in pimples, and subconsciously grabbed Lu Tingxiu's hand and didn't let go, "My lord, I'm afraid." ”

Lu Tingxiu shook off her hand, "When you were digging the corpse just now, I saw that you were positive." ”

"I'm going to do it for you." Xia Qiu was scared and angry, "Are you turning your face and not recognizing people?" ”

Lu Tingxiu reprimanded Wei Ge, "Shut up!" ”

Wei Ge smiled, striding meteors in the night.
