I was originally injured, and I couldn't bear it anymore after soaking in the water for so long, so I had no choice but to give up and go ashore.

Yan Xiaoying held me in her arms and said with a worried expression: "Second master, this river is so long, it is not a way to let Tianyan find it like this, because we don't know when she left the coffin...... Besides, if she had left on her own, it would have been futile to look for it, and she would have to resort to extraordinary means......"

The second master sighed when he heard this, and said with a look of chagrin: "I was careless, I didn't expect her corpse to become so fast, I wanted to save Xiao Yan and dispose of her corpse at the same time, but I didn't expect ......"

"Let's go back first, I have already called Li Guodong just now, I believe he will bring someone over soon, let's go to the stone bridge and wait for them, even if we can't completely clear Tianyan's suspicion, but those villagers don't dare to be too presumptuous to Tianyan." Yan Xiaoying said.

"That's the only way, let's go back and find a way to find Xiaoling's body...... Otherwise, the longer it drags on, the worse it will be. ”

I looked at the second master with some suspicion, I don't know why he is so nervous?

I think that when I was in the secret realm of heaven, in the majestic manor on the top of the big tree, that murmur man sacrificed a spirit flag, and countless wandering spirits appeared, overwhelming the world, and that terrifying power still makes me unforgettable.

And the second master is also a mage, and a female corpse who has just been transformed makes him at a loss, which is simply not in line with his image of a master.

I thought to myself, could it be that the second master is a fancy shelf? And not the real thing? Thinking that he used the green bamboo burial method on Li Guofeng before, he failed to suppress his corpse transformation in the end, but a demon slaying sword that no one drove was more powerful than the green bamboo corpse burial method.

The more I think about it, the more I think it's possible, there are many people pretending to be gods and ghosts in this world, especially in the feng shui geography industry, where liars are everywhere.

Of those who claim to be masters, none of them have real skills.

Of course, although I had such a guess in my heart, I didn't dare to show it too obviously, but my awe of the second master decreased a little.

When I came back to my senses, I suddenly realized that my mind had gradually embarked on a path, a path of respecting the strong and despising the weak.

I don't know if that's good or bad?

We didn't look any further, and followed the river back to the stone bridge.

At this time, it was already the second half of the night, and it was deep and terrifying under the bridge.

The villagers in the village have all turned off the lights and gone to sleep, except for the lights on the dirt slope where the second master's house is located, and faintly, the woman's mournful cry can be heard.

That should be Xiaoling's mother, the pain of losing her daughter, and she can't let go of it in a short time.

We didn't have to wait long before we saw three people coming on foot with flashlights.

Look at the three people carefully, the first one of them is a woman, not very old, the other two are middle-aged, they have been with Li Guodong for many years, I have seen them a few times, they are familiar with each other, but they can't call their names.

Of course, I definitely remember that policewoman, because she made such a deep impression on me.

I couldn't have imagined that Li Guodong didn't lead the team this time, but let this reckless and willful little girl come over to deal with it.

Liu Xiaojiao! A little girl who just graduated from the police academy, as soon as she came to our town, she became a deputy team, and she also became an intern in the office.

Like this kind of young lady who has just come out of social experience, what experience can she have? Letting her handle this will only make things worse.

I think that two days ago, she handed me a business card and said that she would look for her if there was anything, but I didn't expect to meet so soon.

"Yo, isn't this Lao Tianyan? Why is the skin blue and the face swollen? Beaten? ”

Sure enough, when Liu Xiaojiao saw me, she sneered at me.

I snorted coldly, too lazy to argue with her, and said lightly: "Someone died under this stone bridge, he was killed by someone, you have the spare time to squeeze Lao Tzu, it is better to go down to the bottom of the bridge now to explore the clues and find the murderer." ”

At that moment, I told the three of them the cause and effect of the matter, and the second master told everything he knew, Yan Xiaoying stood aside with her arms crossed, watching Liu Xiaojiao do things with interest, without saying a word.

Liu Xiaojiao listened to my statement, her expression was surprised and exaggerated, and she stared at me up and down.

But the two colleagues who came with her said angrily: "It's really lawless, in broad daylight, Lang Lang, they dare to do such a ridiculous thing, and it is absolutely not allowed to be buried at the bottom of the law." Don't worry, Xiao Yan, our police station will definitely seek justice for you in this matter and arrest those people back. This kind of bad style must be put an end to and must not be tolerated, otherwise there will be a second ...... if there is a first time."

I waved my hand and said very generously: "It doesn't have to be so serious, they are all simple villagers, as long as they explain things clearly." The most important thing now is to catch the murderer and bring him to justice, of course, before that, you have to come forward to talk to those villagers, and return my innocence, otherwise I won't dare to show up in the daytime. ”

The two police officers were about to say yes, but Liu Xiaojiao waved her hand to the two of them and said, "You two go to the scene of the crime first to see if there are any suspicious traces." ”

After she finished speaking, she turned her head and glared at me, and said coldly: "We don't need you to dictate to our police station, and we can't completely conclude based on your words alone." ”

Hearing this, I was so angry in my heart, I gritted my teeth and said, "Then you also think I am a murderer?" Okay, I didn't expect Officer Liu to be so smart and find the murderer to solve the case so quickly, it's really amazing, come on, arrest me back, and this case will be solved. When the time comes, you have made great achievements, and you are young and promising, maybe the position that Captain Li just sat in will be yours. ”

Liu Xiaojiao had a straight face, indifferent to my cynicism, and said lightly: "Before this case is revealed, your suspicion is the greatest. The people in the village, who may be the murderer, even the second master can't get rid of suspicion. We pay attention to evidence in handling cases, and now that the female corpse is lost, it is completely impossible to confirm when and how the female corpse died based on your and the second master's statements alone. Now the first step we have to find the woman's body and have the coroner do it to determine when she died and why she died. ”

She paused, then continued: "Of course, as for those villagers who committed acts that endanger the lives of others without going through legal channels, if this is true, we will definitely punish them severely." ”

I pouted, I couldn't say anything about it, what else could I do if the other person was so assertive?

The second master also smiled bitterly and did not speak.

At that moment, Liu Xiaojiao made a detailed record of us, and then I took the three of them down the river to the place where the female corpse was lost.

Under Liu Xiaojiao's orders, the two policemen were reluctant to go down to the river to search for the corpse, but I had already searched it just now, what could they find when they went into the water at this time? Not even a coffin board could be found.

In the end, in vain, Liu Xiaojiao instructed that he would organize people to go down to the river to retrieve the corpse after dawn tomorrow, and after finishing speaking, he suddenly took out a pair of handcuffs and put them on my hands before I could react.

I was stunned, frowned, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"It's not interesting, you're a suspect, of course you have to be handcuffed, otherwise what if you escape?"

I gritted my teeth, if it weren't for her identity there, I really wanted to jump up and give her a popcorn.

Then, Yan Xiaoying and two police officers pressed me, entered the village, went up the dirt slope, and knocked directly on the door of the camel's house.

When the camel couple opened the door, they saw that they were uniformed policemen, and their faces changed drastically, especially when the camel saw me, his eyes almost fell to the ground, and his face was full of panic and disbelief.

"You...... You're a brute...... Why haven't you died yet......" The camel's body trembled, and he was about to rush over.

But in the end, she was stopped by Liu Xiaojiao, the woman's eyes were red and swollen, and she cried again at this time, grabbed Liu Xiaojiao's arm and cried, saying that she would make the decision for them.

I turned a deaf ear to the insults of the camel couple, and I didn't bother to defend anything, otherwise the self-righteous woman would have called me nosy.

Liu Xiaojiao comforted the camel husband and wife, asked them what happened, and finally asked the police to find the village chief and inquire.

I didn't hear the content of their conversation very clearly, mainly because I was too lazy to listen, and finally the village chief brought a few villagers to apologize to me, although it was an apology, but they all had a look of indignation and unwillingness on their faces.

To this, I waved my hand and said nothing.

After that, Liu Xiaojiao successively asked the villagers to ask questions about what happened.

Yan Xiaoying took me into the second master's house, because I had been soaked in water for a long time with an injury, and the former came into the kitchen very considerately to cook me a bowl of ginger soup.

After drinking ginger soup, I only felt sleepy, sitting in the hall and waiting for Liu Xiaojiao to finish her errand, but I waited for two or three hours, and I didn't see her enter the door when it was almost dawn, and finally I fell asleep somehow.

I slept until two or three o'clock in the afternoon before waking up, and when I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed, and the handcuffs I had been wearing on my hands were gone.

When I left the room and entered the hall, I happened to see Yan Xiaoying bring out two bowls of noodles from the kitchen, one of which had eggs in it.

Smelling the fragrance, my stomach suddenly screamed uncontrollably, and praised: "It's really a daughter in the family who has a treasure, I can't imagine that our Xiaoying can not only get out of the hall but also enter the kitchen, if anyone marries you in the future, it will be blessed." ”

"You're going to be poor!" Yan Xiaoying rolled her eyes at me.

I smiled, sat on the chair, and unceremoniously brought the bowl of noodles with eggs in front of me, and before I could eat, my wrist was knocked by Yan Xiaoying with chopsticks.

Then she snatched the egg noodles from my hand, pushed the bowl of no eggs in front of me, and said angrily: "The eggs are reserved for the second master and his old man." ”

After speaking, he turned around and called the second master regardless of my feelings.

Filling my stomach, I asked Yan Xiaoying with some curiosity: "Where is that crazy girl?" Did she open my handcuffs? ”

"Who else but she has the key?"

Yan Xiaoying said lightly: "Early this morning, she and the village chief organized the young adults in the village to go down to the river to retrieve the corpses, but there has been no result so far. ”

"If it is an ordinary corpse, it will surface soon after sinking into the water, but Xiaoling has already changed her corpse, and if she wants to salvage the corpse, how can it be so easy?"

"After all, that little girl is still too young."

The second master smiled, then put away his face and said, "During the day, they will go to salvage, and we will go at night." ”

"Does your old man have a way to find Xiaoling's body?" I asked curiously.

"That's nature."

"What's the solution?"

At night, you will naturally know that you must get Xiaoling's body ashore this time, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with her if she turns into a water fish.

"She's going to turn into a water fish?"

Not only was I surprised, but even Yan Xiaoying was surprised, and wondered: "She just died, she shouldn't be able to become a water fish, right?" At most, it's just a more powerful ghoul......"

The second master shook his head and said in a deep voice: "She's different...... Besides, there is something in the ambergris that turns her into a water fish. ”

"What's that?"

"Yellow, spring, water!"

The second master said these three words word by word, and his face was full of worry.
