Chapter 409: Finding Evidence
Song Qingyi and Meng Yu directly told the old Taoist everything that happened in the village and in the basement.
After hearing this, the old Taoist couldn't help but sigh for those who died.
"And what did you do when you came back?" The old Taoist looked at the two and asked.
The two of them looked a little embarrassed, and then said: "Now that we have been discovered, the village must not be able to go back now, and the people there seem to be very repulsive to outsiders. Seeing that the time given by the prince is running out, we must now go back to the village to investigate the evidence. ”
Song Qingyi directly said their current worries, even if they turned into strangers and entered the village again, they were afraid that what happened before would be repeated.
"I wonder if the seniors can do anything to get us back to the village again?" Meng Yu looked at the old Taoist respectfully.
The old Taoist nodded, then took out a porcelain bottle from his cuff and said, "After you go to that village, eat this elixir, and they will think that you are their person, but remember, this medicine only works for three hours." ”
When he heard that there was such a good thing, Song Qingyi's eyes suddenly lit up.
Now she had some clues, and if she found favorable evidence from them, she would be able to prove her innocence, and three hours would be enough.
After taking the medicine bottle in the old man's hand, the two of them thanked the old man and then went down to rest, and waited until the sky gradually darkened before going to the village.
By the time they reached the village, it was completely dark.
"Why is the village so deserted today?" After Song Qingyi and Meng Yu swallowed the pill, they couldn't help but have some doubts when they looked at the deserted village. There were black lights everywhere, and it was clear that the villagers were not at home.
In the old village, every house should have lit a lamp and sat at the door chatting until late at night.
"Is there something going on in the village?" Song Qingyi looked around suspiciously.
Just when Song Qingyi was about to step forward and knock on the door to see what was going on, he was suddenly pulled by Meng Yu, only to see Meng Yu frowning and looking around.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? Seeing Meng Yu's expression, Song Qingyi couldn't help but ask.
"There's a faint smell of blood in the air." Meng Yu frowned.
After Meng Yu's reminder, Song Qingyi sniffed the smell in the air, and sure enough, there was a smell of blood.
"Let's take a look."
Following the smell of blood, I saw that the missing villagers were holding torches around a clearing at this time, and there was a thick pillar standing there in the middle of them, and I saw that a person seemed to be tied to the pillar.
Looking closely, Song Qingyi found that the person tied up on the pillar knew him, and it turned out to be the child who helped them escape.
I saw that he was dying at this time tied to the pillar, and the surrounding villagers were constantly torturing him.
"This traitor, if he dares to help an outsider, he should be cut with a thousand cuts!" An old man held a dagger in his hand and kept scratching the child's body, only to see the child's body at this time one after another blood marks, blood wet clothes, but those people did not stop.
Others were whipped with leather whips, the most severe of which was salt and chili water applied to children's wounds.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Song Qingyi only felt distressed. If they hadn't left him last night, he wouldn't have been where he is, and it was all her fault.
Meng Yu on the side also felt that it was too cruel to treat a child like this, so he took Song Qingyi into his arms and comforted him.
"No, I'm going to save him." If he continues to be tortured like this, the child will definitely die. The first Chinese network
She couldn't just watch him die!
Seeing that Song Qingyi wanted to rush out, Meng Yu grabbed him and said: "If you rush out like this, you will only be going to die, do you think he will see the person he rescued running over to die?" Don't forget that the effect is only three hours, and we still have something to do! ”
Meng Yu imprisoned Song Qingyi and kept persuading Song Qingyi to calm down.
"Do you want me to see him tortured to death?" Song Qingyi's eyes turned red.
Meng Yu also knew that Song Qingyicheng couldn't stand this matter, but he still persuaded him: "Don't worry, he can't die for the time being." The most important thing for us now is to find evidence, and when the time comes, shall we find the prince to borrow someone to save him? ”
Song Qingyi bit her lip, looked at the child who was still being tortured not far away, and nodded heavily.
Meng Yu is right, as long as the evidence is found now, he can borrow someone to save people when the time comes.
Time is running out and we have to hurry.
Song Qingyi took Meng Yu directly to the place where he met the child for the first time, ready to check if there were any clues.
Finally, they found a house, but this house was not the same as last night, and when they walked in, they found that there were children's clothes inside, and it was clear that this was the child's home.
Walking inside, I saw that the ground was full of stumps and scraps, and it was no wonder that the child was not afraid at all when he saw the scene in the basement last night.
Song Qingyi looked around his home, and saw a notebook on the table, picked it up and flipped through it, and found that it was a child's diary.
The handwriting on it was neat, and all kinds of horrific and bloody things were recorded, and he would write them down every time someone died.
It was hard for Song Qingyi to imagine how a child could record these things in such detail, and after putting away the diary, he looked at this room, where there were several puppets in it.
"What did you find there?" Song Qingyi turned around for a long time and found nothing else except the diary, and then came to Meng Yu's side.
I saw that Meng Yu was also holding a book in his hand, but it was all about how to make a puppet.
"Come to think of these two as enough." Song Qingyi told Meng Yu the diary he had just found.
More than half of the three hours had passed, and the family had almost been searched, and Song Qingyi and Meng Yu had left here.
After returning to Ye Kingdom, Song Qingyi couldn't wait for dawn, and took out the token given by the prince and entered the palace overnight.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, those two are back."
Someone was informed outside.
When the prince heard that Song Qingyi and Meng Yu really kept their promises and did not disappoint him, he hurriedly put on a coat and walked out.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is the evidence you want." When Song Qingyi saw the prince, he directly handed the diary in his hand and the book of making puppets to the prince.
The prince was even more surprised when he flipped through the contents, he didn't expect that there was really a puppet in the world, and his father was really made into a puppet.
"This matter is indeed that the prince has wronged you, I'm really sorry." Looking at the things in his hand, the prince's mood was a little heavy.
Song Qingyi immediately said: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has understood the situation, please burn these things." "This kind of thing must not be put into the hands of people with bad intentions, otherwise I don't know how many people's lives will be put into it.
He remembers the basement scene vividly, and he must not let this happen again.
