The next day, Tang Xingye took his subordinates, Qiu Ju, Lu Qingqing and others to salvage the pond again.

The pond at the foot of the new coal mountain was put on both sides, and no one dared to ask for the fish, so all the pits were dug and buried.

"Is this fish really fed with human flesh?" Someone asked with nausea.

In the past two days, everyone's chats in the capital have been around this case, and everyone has time to come here to take a look at whether there is anything new that has been salvaged.

"In the morning, I asked Tang Zhutou, and he said that human flesh can't fatten so many fish, so it should be burned to ashes and scattered here."

"Burnt ashes?" The questioner shuddered, "So, that means there are more than seven people?" ”

The torso has been refined, and there are still seven heads in the pond that were discarded after boiling the flesh and hair, so the so-called ash, doesn't it mean that there are other victims?

"I don't know about this, Tang Zhutou said so. If it is not ash, then when refining the skin and flesh of the bones, it is also mixed with good medicine and tonic. ”

"It's normal to mix tonics, isn't it said to be an elixir of immortality?"

Everyone gasped and listened to the person who was using the net to make up the fish shout: "This is a leg bone, so long?!" ”

Everyone saw a bamboo stick twisted in the net pocket, if it used to be a moldy bamboo stick wrapped in mud, now that everyone has experience, they suspect that it is a human leg bone.

The people turned over carefully and seriously, and in the pond in the mountain, Lu Qingqing lay in front of a bear's house, looking inside carefully.

The bear is still sleeping, and with the weather in the capital, it will not wake up until the end of February.

He wanted to go in but didn't dare, so he pulled Xiaotian and rubbed it up.

In the pond, there is nothing in the net.

Everyone doesn't know whether to be happy or not.

Yin Zhi was really scared, he had barely slept for two days and two nights, and now he breathed a sigh of relief when he looked at the empty net pocket, and said to Qiu: "The fish here are fed to the bears, could the murderer be afraid that the bears will fish out something and it will be exposed, so he doesn't dare to throw things into it?" ”

Autumn does not deny this possibility.

After a day of fishing, there was really nothing.

Everyone went to look near the cave again, but there was none.

"Ma Santong, what should I do if I can't find enough people?" Qiu was standing under the furnace, and Ma Santong was standing on the wooden steps, using a torch to carefully inspect the inside of the furnace.

The strong aroma is slightly better than the previous two days, but the aroma may have soaked into the furnace, and the smell is still strong.

"Really...... Forty-nine people? Yin Zhi was terrified.

Ma Santong nodded and said, "If he is according to the old formula, then forty-nine men will definitely want it, if not, it will only be more and not less." ”

Everyone's scalp is numb.

"It's a thief, these people." Lu Miaomiao squatted at the door and shouted, "There are no clues." ”

He touched Xiaotian's head again: "My lord's case can't be solved, if I can't solve the case, my adult will have no face, and many people are waiting to see the adult's joke." ”

"Woohoo!" Xiaotian was also unconvinced, and jumped around as if he wanted to go to the forest to search.

Lu Miaomiao nodded: "Let's shout a little more, even if we encounter tigers and wild boars, we are not afraid, right." ”

"Wang!" There's it, don't be afraid.

A man and a dog shouted to Qiao Si and Lou Yang, and went to the forest to find them.

It's better to do something than to be idle.

"Lord Xiao Song is not coming?" Yin Zhi asked Tang Xingye.

Tang Xingye replied: "We adults will be very busy these days, and the matter here will be left to us." ”

What are you busy with? Yin Zhi was curious, but he didn't dare to ask.

This is a question that many people are curious about. After the dynasty dispersed this morning, Lu Xiaoren, Song Yanxu and Luo Zizhang had many people waiting, and they said that they would go together, but as they walked, several circles merged into one, and I didn't know who asked, and said, "Lord Lu, do you still have to investigate the case of Lu Zhi's disappearance?" Did you find Lu Zhi's body? ”

"No, it was a skull that was found yesterday. Lord Xiao Song said that the skull had been processed, and the fur and muscles had been processed. Lu Xiaoren replied.

"Then now according to the charter, what is Lord Xiao Song going to do?" Someone asked Song Yanxu.

Song Yanxu waved his hand: "It's not clear about his affairs to send someone." ”

What for? Everyone is really curious.

This curiosity continued until noon, from the Dali Temple, Lord Xiao Song washed all the human bones he picked up in the middle of the night last night and sorted them out and put them in the public house, and today the prince of Qi arrived early.

King Qi also got a basket of clay and sent it in.

I only know that I am very busy, and the meals that are busy until noon are all meat buns that are convenient and do not delay things.

The next morning, it was still the same, Xiao Song arrived at Dali Temple early, and Prince Qi got another basket of clay.

The same was true on the third day......

Everyone only saw the soil go in, but never saw the soil come out, and they wanted to investigate, but there was no news that the door was closed.

It was closed for three days in a row, and everyone in the mountain searched carefully.

Xiaotian's nose was swollen, and he and Lu Miaomiao were lying on the ground and sniffing around the cave.

Suddenly, Xiaotian barked at a bush lying on the ground.

"What's wrong? Did you find something? Lu Miaomiao crawled over and pushed away the bushes, there was nothing in them at all, and he was about to speak, when he looked up and saw a wild boar, snorting in front of them.

Lu Miaomiao rubbed his feet and ran away: "Help!" ”

Xiaotian also ran, but Lu Miaomiao couldn't run, a man and a dog scurried around in the forest, and he got lost after a while.

The pig did not get lost and chased after them.

When the two of them ran to the point of detachment, and were climbing up with the tree, Qiu's arrows arrived, and after four arrows, the pig fell to the ground and did not move.

"Whew!" Xiaotian collapsed on the ground, grinning and panting, Lu Qingqing crawled over to look at the wild boar, and asked Qiu, "Is the pig you shot to death counted as yours?" ”

Qiu nodded one after another: "It can be counted as ours." ”

"That wasn't in vain." Lu Miaomiao suddenly became happy, "Xiaotian, at night, we make dumplings, pork balls, meat cakes, braised pork......

He told the wild boar the name of the dish.

Autumn was speechless.

Xiaotian didn't listen to the name of the dish, and shouted vigorously around a flat ground where there was no grass.

"What's wrong, something?" Qiu felt strange, this place was far from the cave, not close to the foot of the mountain, he went to use his knife to pluck the earth, and saw a cloth shoe underneath.

He picked it up and looked at it, "These are men's shoes." As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the cave.

Halfway down the road to the maple grove, I found a second cloth shoe, which was stuck in the mud, but it was not very dirty, and it was obviously not long.

"It's Su Lao Wu's, because Xiao Tian has smelled Su Lao Wu's smell."

Qiu was overjoyed: "This shoe can prove that Su Lao Wu is in danger here." ”

Although they are all auxiliary certificates, what does it matter, there are enough auxiliary certificates, and there is weight.

The two took the things back and asked Su Lao Wu's friend Li Song to verify, Li Song was not very sure, but the shoes were as big as the old shoes in Su Lao Wu's house.

Everyone came with confidence and continued to search.

Song Ning's department, from Song Yuan to Louyang and Xiaotian, everyone was busy in and out, but Song Ning was not seen coming out of the public house.

"What the hell are you doing when you send food and mud in every day?"

Pan Dexiang asked a handyman guarding the door, and the handyman shook his head and replied, "The villain has also inquired, but the mouths of the people under Lord Xiao Song are very tight, and they refuse to say anything." ”

"Lou Yang and Ding Bufan, they don't say it?" Pan Dexiang asked.

The handyman nodded: "They are not the same as before, their eyes seem to have grown to the top of their heads when they enter and exit the door, and they don't look at us." ”

Pan Dexiang is not surprised: "What kind of person to do with what master." ”

As he spoke, he saw Tang Xingye and they were trotting in from outside, and several people used to see him nodding politely, but now they saw him as if they didn't see him.

Is this also a high branch climbing? Sooner or later, there will be times when you will cry.

Pan Dexiang went to call Tang Taiwen back, but he didn't know what to say, and he didn't know how to guess if he guessed randomly: "...... It's a cart of mud going in, it's a kiln, and it should be able to ignite. ”

"How many days is it today?" Tang Taiwen asked.

"It's the seventh day."

Tang Taiwen bowed: "Then wait for him to set fire to the kiln." ”

In prison, Quan Xin was angry and relaxed, so that no one treated him badly after the money, he was served with good food and drink, and yesterday he took him to the back office to take a hot bath.

Compared with Wei Tongda and his party, they are not so comfortable.

Quan Xinsheng said to Wei Tongda next door through the door: "Commander Wei doesn't need to be sad, he has no conclusive evidence, Poor Dao will ask the prince to call the shots." ”

Wei Tongda glanced at him, closed his eyes and did not speak.

In the past few days, Wei Tongda will also speak, but he will never mention half a word about the case.

"Some people just want to get ahead." Seeing that Wei Tongda didn't speak, Quan Xinsheng also closed his eyes and stopped paying attention to the person next door, "Poor Dao let you go, you should be a bully of Poor Dao." Ma Santong is a fart, if he has the ability, he can get to this point. ”

"Eat and drink like an old dog."

After Quan Xinsheng finished speaking, Wei Tongda next door suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him, and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"What?" Quan Xin was puzzled.

"What you just said, what do you mean to let him go? Who's going to let go? Wei Tongda asked Quan Xinsheng.

Quan Xinsheng gave him a blank look: "When I talk to you seriously, you don't care, and when you talk to yourself, you are energetic." ”

"In short, let me tell you one last thing, no matter how much detailed evidence he finds out, it is useless, and if he can't be convicted, he can only be suspected."

After speaking, he calmly began to meditate cross-legged.

Someone walked into the prison, the soles of their shoes rubbing against the ground and making a small sound, such steps must have been trained, and normal people's feet are heavy and loose on the ground.

Quan Xinsheng opened his eyes and looked at the other party, the other party nodded at him, handed in a large rice pill, and said expressionlessly: "The master said, be prepared." ”

Quan Xinsheng knew what it was, so he got up and stuffed it into the hem of his shirt, and the man went to the next door and handed in eight from the wooden fence, and Wei Tongda got up and took it, and one of his brothers put it in the hem of his coat like Quan Xinsheng.

The person who delivered the medicine did not speak the whole time and went out.

Zhao Yi came out of Song Ning's public house with someone, and when he arrived at the door, he met Su Zi'an, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the other party: "Come here at night?" ”

"The slave came to Pan Dexiang beside Lord Tang to say something, Lord Wang, are you going back now?" Su Zi'an said.

Zhao Yi glanced at him, brushed his sleeves and went out.

Su Zi'an breathed a sigh of relief and walked away quickly.

On the afternoon of the third day, Song Ning, who had been the focus of discussion and curiosity for nine days but had never left the public house, finally went out. She not only went out but also sent invitations, and even Zhao Chi sent invitations.

Everyone is invited to watch her rise to justice.

Zhao Chi rubbed his eyebrows with the invitation and said, "...... He even sent Kunning Palace? ”

"Yes! Invite Sanyu to send it to Kunning Palace, and invite the Queen Mother to come and guide. Ji Chun felt his tongue knotted as he spoke, and his head fluttered.

Which official was promoted to the court, and invited the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including the queen mother and the crown princess of the harem, to come and guide together?

"I haven't seen it yet!" Zhao Chi threw the invitation on the table, and he had nothing to describe his mood.

No one in this world can understand what kind of mood he felt after he transferred Song Ning back to the capital.
