Chapter 9: Chastity
"Miss, what are you looking at?" The phoenix chick came up.
Xu Qinghuan did not speak.
Feng Xiao's gaze gradually became serious.
After all, Feng Xiao is a well-informed girl when it comes to eating.
"Miss," Feng Xiao's voice was heavy, "that won't work...... That's definitely not going to work...... Let's go back to the house and have dinner again! ”
People like phoenix chicks who want to fill their stomachs regardless of the occasion can't bear to eat in front of a pool of blood, so you can imagine what kind of thoughts the person who once squatted here and munched on.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Chang Niangzi: "The lady helped the government to collect the corpses of the female dependents, have you ever seen a similar situation?" ”
Chang Niangzi shook her head: "No, don't say that the concubine has never seen it, even Feng Xiang's case file twenty years earlier has never recorded such a tragic situation." ”
Not in the previous life, Cao Ruzhen's body was intact and she had not been tortured in the same way.
What was the reason that made the murderer change his mind and choose this cruel method of killing.
Xu Qinghuan stood up, if she was taller, she would be able to see the Cao family not far away through the broken low wall, this angle was just right, watching the Cao family panic because they couldn't find Cao Ruwan.
He was obviously standing here, but the Cao family turned a blind eye, but it was a pity that Xu Qingan did not leave Fengxiang City, otherwise things would have developed according to his expectations, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but there was still time, he could slowly deal with everyone, and before that, he had to give them a small punishment.
His eyes fell on Cao Ruwan, that delicate face was full of fear and pleading, a pair of big deer eyes looked at him tightly, but it didn't make him hesitate at all, but was very excited, he even began to look forward to what kind of feeling killing such a soft girl could bring him, he took out a knife and walked over to Cao Ruwan, looking at the girl, her struggle made him laugh involuntarily.
After planning for so long, he finally waited for this day, and he wanted to appreciate this moment.
He stretched out his hand to turn Cao Ruwan around, and let her look at the magnificent courtyard of the Cao family, right here, slowly cutting scars on her body with a knife, warm blood sprayed on his body, the smell of blood was so sweet at the end of his nose, the girl writhed desperately, the cold knife broke her chest without hesitation, her clothes and skin were torn, and everything was exposed in front of the entire Cao family.
When she stopped struggling and was dying, he threw her against the wall and continued to look at her as her breathing became weaker and weaker, and finally died.
Before that, he took out the food in his arms and ate it in large gulps, enjoying the gluttonous feast.
The killing came silently, the means were clean, and he removed the oiled paper cloth from his body, and he swaggered out of the place, and finally disappeared into the city.
No one knew that he had just brutally killed a woman.
Qing Huan exhaled slowly, after her father was framed, she also participated in many cases with Li Xu, and learned a lot from it.
If you want to catch someone, you have to know him so that you can find the traces he left behind.
"This is a person who is very familiar with the Cao family, he must have killed people before this, it seems that he just killed Cao Ruwan, but in fact he is torturing the entire Cao family," Xu Qinghuan paused slightly, "There must be a reason for choosing such a place to kill, this abandoned alley should have a very important meaning to the Cao family, so the Cao family searched all the places around, but they would not come here, and now Cao Ruwan is dead here, which means that the secret of the Cao family is known."
The Cao family will be in fear all day long, and even suspicious. ”
Chang Niangzi couldn't help but say: "The Cao family has been in Fengxiang for decades, not only the high-ranking families in Fengxiang City, but also the scholarly family, even if it is not like the dignitaries, it can be regarded as beautiful, there is no shortage of money in the clan, and there are children serving in the court, what secrets will they have?" ”
"But in every glamorous family, there will always be one or two unsightly things behind the scenes." Xu Qinghuan lifted her skirt and climbed onto the small low wall, and the whole person stood on the wall.
Chang Niangzi followed neatly and held Xu Qinghuan's arm.
Xu Qinghuan pointed forward: "Chang Niangzi, look at what is there?" ”
Just now where the murderer stood, she could only look in the direction of the Cao family's ancestral house because of her short stature, but she could see it more clearly when she climbed here.
In the open space in front of the ancestral house of the Cao family, a large archway stands there.
It was given by the imperial court in order to show the merits of the Cao family, and there was a slightly smaller archway behind the archway, with the word "chastity" written on it, which was the place where the murderer really stared at when he killed people.
He just wants to look at this "chaste" archway and look at the place where Cao Jia is praised for his merits.
Dissecting Cao Ruwan's chest and abdomen is like revealing the glamorous appearance of the Cao family, so that all the pickles inside fall in front of everyone's eyes, how enjoyable.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Do you remember how this archway came about? ”
Chang Niangzi nodded, as a native of Fengxiang, she can recite this matter like a stream.
Chang Niangzi said: "Under the archway, it is written that Fengxiang's descendant Cao Lin's wife Dong, and Dong's is now Mrs. Cao." ”
When the rebels attacked Fengxiang, the old lady Cao led his family to resist, and many female relatives in the city were crowded in the secret passage under the ancestral house of the Cao family.
The rebels thought that they would be able to breathe when they entered Fengxiang, but they didn't expect that Old Lady Cao would lead people to gather the grain and grass in the whole city and turn it into ashes, making Fengxiang a useless empty city.
Under the pressure of the imperial court soldiers and horses, the rebels had no food and grass and could not defend Fengxiang City, so they had to leave in a hurry, and the people of Fengxiang were able to save their lives. Old lady Cao and fourth master Cao died for protecting their daughters.
After this incident, the Cao family became a well-known family, and Mrs. Cao, a lady, was even more respected.
Chang Niangzi suddenly said: "What the eldest lady means is that there must be something under this archway." ”
Xu Qinghuan said: "This is not what I said, but what the murderer said." ”
Chang Niangzi nodded: "Then this story must be very exciting." ”
Xu Qinghuan curled her lips slightly: "I didn't lie to the lady, there will be a lot of stories happening with me." ”
Chang Niangzi nodded: "I'll go back and pack up, as long as the eldest lady is willing, I will not leave an inch." ”
"We should also go," Xu Qinghuan walked down the low wall, "the murderer is still in the city, we have to find him." ”
"Sister."
Xu Qing'an saw the mess everywhere, his face turned blue, and the fishy smell made his stomach feel like a river and a sea, he finally stabilized his mind and handed over the things in his hand: "This is what you want." ”
Xu Qinghuan didn't speak, and Chang Niangzi had already taken the things.
This is a map of the whole city of Fengxiang County that has just been drawn.
If you want to arrest people, it's up to you.
When Xu Qinghuan's carriage slowly left the Cao family, Sun Chong, the magistrate of Fengxiang County, looked at the people around him: "A woman has stayed in that kind of place for more than half an hour, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it." ”
Li Xu smiled slightly, there was no look of surprise on his face, and the stone blue robe fluttered in the wind, as if it was about to turn into a cloud on the horizon: "Lord Sun doesn't need me to help." ”
Sun Chong couldn't help but be anxious: "Then what's the matter, without you, I wouldn't even be able to find the body of Miss Cao's family, let alone the murderer......"
Li Xu said: "Someone will help you find it, you just need to hear the news and chase it over." ”
"Who?"
Li Xu turned around: "Miss Xu." ”
