The cause of Xiao Bin's death has not yet been decided, and now he is entering the house to ask for it. Although it involves the past, there is no such reason without evidence.

Cui Yun called people to surround Xiao Bin's house, and when he saw that it was someone from the government, the people who were originally going out were shocked when they saw this, and then they quickly scattered like birds and beasts.

Cui Yun asked Master Liu to order someone to chase after him, and these people fled in a hurry, and a box of things broke the lid and spilled all over the ground, which were indeed valuables.

The people around Zhou Cai gasped unconsciously and muttered, "It seems that there were no less good things back then." ”

Xie Yu stepped forward, and she crouched down to pick up a broken wooden box from among the objects.

As soon as the lid of the box was opened, Xie Yu's face turned red when she saw it, and she almost threw the things in her hand out.

There is a Buddha statue in the box, although the workmanship is rough, but you can still clearly see the carved form on the Buddha statue, it is actually a pair. Twin Buddha statues.

It can be seen that Xiao Bin is very fond of this Buddha statue, and he also used golden silk nanmu to inlay it with the bottom.

Pei Heng also leaned over to see this thing, and when he saw it clearly, the pupils under his eyes did not shrink slightly.

After a moment, he straightened his complexion, frowned unconsciously, and said, "Tantric Joy Buddha? ”

Xie Yu was a little unfamiliar with the title of the Buddha of Joy, she raised her eyes to look at Pei Heng and asked, "What is the Buddha of Joy?" ”

"I have heard that there are many monks and many religions in the Western Regions, and Tantra has been transmitted from the Western Regions to Uszang, and these monks are practicing by reciting the true language secret, the body secret of the hand seal, and the mind as a visualization of the mind and the secret of the mind, and the double luck of emptiness and happiness to achieve the desire to cure desire."

Cui Yun interjected coldly, "Jing Zhi understands it so well, isn't it that he has also entered the Tantric Sect." As he spoke, he glanced at the Joy Buddha in Xie Yu's hand, and then squeezed his eyebrows at Pei Heng.

The intentions speak for themselves.

It was Pei Heng's face that was a little gloomy, and Cui Yun also realized that this was inappropriate, so he touched his nose and looked away.

"This Xiao Bin seems to have great respect for this thing, isn't he a tantra? But isn't he a river bandit? ”

Xie Yu's idea is simple, although the Joy Buddha of this Tantric Buddhism is not in line with the world, but since it is Buddhism, how can Xiao Bin's murderous heart be so heavy.

According to the identity of the person who was killed these days, it means that he is not necessarily a great crime, but he is by no means a good person.

Xie Yu was thinking about the Buddha statue, and he smelled a strange fishy smell wafting in, although this smell was not strong, but it still could not be ignored.

She looked around and sniffed, and then she brought the Buddha statue close to her nose and sniffed sharply, and the smell of the Buddha statue almost made her unable to breathe.

The smell of blood was a bit old, it seemed to be a rancid smell that had been soaked into the wood, so much so that Xie Yu was heated when he rubbed it, so that the smell fermented again.

"This Buddha statue has seen blood!" Xie Yu endured the regurgitation and sniffed again, and then she said firmly.

But this smell of blood is slightly different from the ordinary smell of blood, Xie Yu can't say it, and thinks that it is because of the long time.

Cui Yun also sniffed it, and hurriedly covered his nose and retreated.

Pei Heng kept staring at the Joy Buddha in Xie Yu's hand, as if he was pondering something.

Now Xiao Bin's house is surrounded by water, all of them are lively neighbors, Xiao Bin died suddenly, and there are no descendants, if it is someone else, it is estimated that he will not be able to wait until today to ask someone to scrape the objects in the house clean.

But because of his usual ruthlessness, if it weren't for today's "original owner" calling the door to ask for it, Rao is dead, and no one has entered his house.

Xie Yu asked Master Liu to invite Xiao Bin's neighbor, and after a while, she saw a dark-skinned honest man coming over.

After all, they are flat-headed people, and they are afraid of officials in their bones, so they worship Cui Yun as soon as they see him.

Cui Yun stopped his movements with a folding fan, and only said, "No need to be polite." ”

Xie Yu saw Cui Yun signaling to her, so she stepped forward and said to the man: "Master Cui thinks that Xiao Bin's case is still suspicious, so he wants to ask you something." ”

Xie Yu is delicate, and her tone is kind and gentle. That man had never seen such a pleasant-looking official person, and he was a little flattered.

Hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't dare to be, villain Li Hu, if the adult has anything to say, just ask, as long as the little one knows, he will never hide it." ”

Xie Yu asked him, "Have you ever had any dealings with Xiao Binping?" ”

Li Hu shook his head, "Don't dare to communicate, others say that he may have been involved in human life on the Yellow River, where can he dare to get close to him." ”

Xie Yu glanced at Xiao Bin's information on the file, now he is also in his thirties, and he looks about the same age as Li Hu, so she asked again, "Hasn't he got married?" ”

"No, we have been neighbors for decades, and his parents left early, and the house was cleaned up early. So in the early years, he left the country, and we still knew from the people of others that he joined the gang and followed others to become river bandits on the Yellow River. He only came back a few years ago, when the old house was occupied by a distant relative, and he threw the whole family out of the door, and he lived back again. However, he was famous, and he married a few houses from other counties one after another, and finally ran away, so he was simply alone. ”

"Didn't you even report to the official?" Xie Yu was stunned.

"Those mothers-in-law are afraid of his life, if it weren't for the poverty of the family, who would be willing to let their own girl enter his house, so they naturally ran away when they found an opportunity." Speaking of this, Li Hu lowered his voice and leaned into Xie Yu's ear and whispered: "When he was young, he once bet with people and fought with people, and accidentally killed himself while playing. roots, so although he married several rooms when he came back, he didn't give birth to a boy and a girl. There is nowhere to spread the anger, so naturally I will change my way to torture those mothers-in-law in bed at night, which one do you say can stand it. ”

Xie Yu didn't expect this Li Hu to mention this to her, and she unconsciously remembered the form of the statue of the Happy Buddha just now, and the whole person seemed a little unnatural.

She glanced up at Pei Heng and saw that he seemed to be aware of the change in herself, so she had to put on a positive face and continue to ask, "Then do you know what sect he has entered later?" ”

"This villain really doesn't know, he rarely goes out on weekdays, and we don't dare to interact with him, and we don't know what he is doing at home."

After a pause, Li Hu seemed to remember something and added: "Oh, by the way, the villain heard that someone occasionally saw him in the Sitong gambling house. ”

It's a four-way gambling house again.

Xie Yu's eyes moved, she motioned to her master Liu Xi to come, said a few words to him, and took the lead in Xiao Bin's house.

Xiao Bin's house was larger than the first ones, divided into two courtyards, the front and back, and Xiao Bin slept in the bedroom in the backyard on the day of the incident, so the several houses in the front yard were not affected by the fire too much.

Xie Yu entered the house in the front yard, the house had been turned upside down by the family just now, the things in the house were thrown to the ground, and there were almost no valuable things, presumably they had already been looted by those people.

Pei Heng looked around the room, and his eyes fell on an inconspicuous black wooden box in the corner.

The slender fingers were gently lifted to reveal all the contents of the wooden box.

As the contents were revealed, a disgusting fishy smell followed, which made Xie Yu almost turn her back.

"What is this, why does it stink so much!" Cui Yun's wide sleeves were hidden in front of him, and the whole person staggered back a few steps.

Xie Yu took the initiative to reach out and took out all the things in the box one by one.

Lotus pestles, charms, and some bottles and jars and silver and lead utensils.

Xie Yu poured out the contents of the bottle, all of them were black and red pills, among which there was an empty porcelain bottle, Xie Yu leaned on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, there was a milky smell.

"No wonder those people didn't take this box away." Cui Yun stretched his neck and looked at it, slightly disgusted.

Xie Yu looked at things and fell into deep thought, and after a long time, she looked at Pei Heng and asked, "My lord, are these things also in Tantra?" ”

Pei Heng shook his head, "I only know about Tantra from books, and there are not many people in the Central Plains who believe in this religion, so I don't know it, but now I see, the religion that Xiao Bin believes in should not be Esoteric Buddhism." He picked up a talisman from the table and unfolded it, his slender fingertips swiped the spell on the talisman, and explained to Xie Yu: "Esoteric Buddhism is from the Western Regions, how can you use Taoist talismans. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Master Liu hurriedly walk in, and when he saw Xie Yu, he shook his head and sighed: "Some of these people have indeed been to Sitong Gambling House, but not all of them. ”

Xie Yu's heart froze, and the clue that had faintly sprouted in her heart came to an abrupt end at this moment.

"What do you think has to do with the Sitong Casino?" Pei Heng looked at Xie Yu and asked.

Hearing Pei Heng ask her, Xie Yu smiled bitterly, "I have always felt that if these people were all killed by the same person, then they must have other similar connections." I heard Li Hu mention that Xiao Bin had been in and out of the Sitong gambling house, and I was thinking that Xiao Bin had been a river bandit on the Yellow River, and the valuable objects at home could make others miss him, so why go to the gambling house to seek wealth. ”

"But it is also possible that he did not have the heart to seek wealth in the gambling house, what if it was used as a pastime?" Pei Heng glanced at Xie Yu and asked lightly.

"What the adults said is also possible, but my lord, do you remember that Li Hu once said that Xiao Bin once injured himself when he was a child when he was a bet with others, and this incident had a deep impact on him, and even his temperament changed greatly. Because of a gamble, it hurt my own life. If you were him, would you still want to be a pastime in the gambling house? It is precisely because I don't think Xiao Bin will be like this, so I think that Sitong Gambling House may be a breakthrough, if those people in the first place have been to Sitong Gambling House, then the problem is very likely to be there. ”

After speaking, Xie Yu sighed slightly, "But these are all speculations made by the subordinates, and now I see, I was really wrong." ”

Pei Heng looked at all the changes in Xie Yu's expression, and for some reason remembered the case he solved more than ten years ago.

At that time, didn't he just rely on the skill of the Li family's son to shave the skin of the fish, so boldly speculated that he was the real murderer.

Thinking of this, he finally opened his mouth and said: "Since you think it's weird, why don't you take a look for yourself." ”
