Chapter 67: Framed
A group of old stubborns who were stubbornly guarding the ancestral tomb were finally carried back, and the villagers cried to death one by one, and the scene was extremely tragic.
Meng Jiefang wiped the sweat on his hand, and said to Yan Yu solemnly: "Your expedient measure is quite good, but we can't do it, we have to be responsible for what we have said." ”
Yu Guofeng disagreed: "In the end, it is to save people, the starting point is good, besides, Yan Yu is not our person, the people will not raise officials and not be held accountable, wait for these old men to come to their senses, thank Yan Yu is too late." ”
Yan Yu also smiled bitterly: "Haven't you thought that I am not an expedient measure, but telling the truth?" ”
Yu Guofeng twisted his eyebrows, and his face was solemn: "Yan Yu, this is not a joke." ”
Yan Yu shook his head, equally serious: "I'm not kidding, he admitted to me personally, saying that he set the fire." ”
"Why would he do that?" Meng Jiefang was also puzzled, but obviously, he believed Yan Yu.
He didn't say it, but I thought...... It was supposed to frame the archaeological team. Yan Yu didn't dare to say too much.
"Framing the archaeological team?"
"Yes, just now I went with Guan Rui to investigate the fire, Zheng Junrong's words flickered, and he was very weak-hearted, thinking that there should be some evidence that was extremely unfavorable to the archaeological team at the fire site."
"It may also be that the archaeological team set the fire, or it may ......not be an unintentional mistake," Meng Jiefang did not seem to agree with Yan Yu's conclusion.
Yan Yu shook his head: "The archaeological team does have this motive, as long as the Dragon King Temple is burned to the ground, the villagers will no longer have to insist on obstructing their excavation, but Zheng Junrong should not be able to do such a thing." ”
"And I believe that Qin Dayou will not lie to me, he said that he set the fire, that must be the fire he set out, this old man has been cherishing feathers all his life, and he can't leave a trace of stain, and his words of dying should be credible."
"So I think that Qin Dayou should be ready to frame the archaeological team, and it may not be enough to burn down the Dragon King Temple, but if these old guys die in the fire, this archaeological project will be completely frozen, and there will be no way to dig it anymore."
"They...... They are using their lives to defend what is under the Dragon King Temple! I have to admit that this approach is really admirable, even if it seems stubborn and stupid to others, but the behavior of this group of old guys is too shocking.
"What is there in the ground that would allow these old creatures to risk their lives to guard them?" Yu Guofeng was speechless, and Meng Jiefang answered: "Do you want to ask the archaeological team?" They should know something about digging if they want to dig like this......"
Yu Guofeng shook his head: "This is a secret of the archaeological team, not something we can inquire about, besides, unless it involves the case, we can't let them reveal the inside story 100%. ”
Meng Jiefang also sighed: "It's rare to have a clue, I'm about to investigate, and this incident happened again, this time has really hit the evil, how troublesome it has not been broken......"
As soon as these words came out, it was inevitable that he was a little frustrated, Guan Rui suggested: "Go and interrogate Qin Dayou first, but I have to deny it if I see that he tore his throat just now, there is no actual evidence, I am afraid it will be difficult to confirm that he is an arsonist......"
Yan Yu nodded: "Guan Rui is right, they are not feeling well now, and the villagers are not in a good mood, it is not suitable for interrogation at this time, we might as well focus on the fire investigation, as long as we can find evidence, it is useless for him to deny it." ”
"With this, by the way, I can also ask for the list of the dancing masters."
Yu Guofeng nodded in agreement: "Yan Yu's idea is good, it's such an idea, let's investigate the fire in the Dragon King Temple first." ”
"In addition, I'll talk to Zheng Junrong, maybe I can find a breakthrough in terms of evidence."
Yan Yu didn't have much hope for Zheng Junrong, after all, with Zhao Tongrong by his side, even if Qin Dayou arranged conclusive evidence to frame the archaeological team, he would still be disposed of by Zhao Tongrong in the end, otherwise this old Taoist would not be so calm and relaxed.
However, he didn't stop Yu Guofeng, Hengzhu still had to wait for the ruins of the Dragon King Temple to completely extinguish the flame, let him try, if he could get some unexpected joy, it would be good.
After a few people finished discussing, they walked out of the col, at this time the villagers were crying and crying, surrounding a few old guys, the scene was very touching.
There is a saying that "sorrow enlightens the saint, how difficult it is to prosper the country", although difficulties will bring losses, but will also greatly enhance the cohesion of the group, I believe that after today's time, I am afraid that everyone will obey Qin Da's orders, and even pull him to a higher position.
When Yan Yu was thinking, a person suddenly rushed out of the crowd, couldn't it be Lin Xiaoyu.
"Yan Yu!"
Lin Xiaoyu didn't care too much, and when he came closer, he found that Yan Yu still had Rui and others around him, so he had to change his words and ask.
"Yan ...... Mr. Yan, are you alright? What's the matter with this face......"
Yan Yu touched the gauze on his face and said to Lin Xiaoyu: "It's okay, I fell two days ago, it's not in the way, what about the child?" ”
"There are too many people in it, Comrade Xiao Lu is taking them to the archaeological team."
Seeing this, Yu Guofeng also winked at Yan Yu with a wicked smile, Yan Yu gave him a blank look, and the latter went to ask the archaeological team for questioning.
Guan Rui and the others were also interested, and made excuses to leave personal space for Yan Yu.
"Why are you so careless...... Seeing that no one was around, Lin Xiaoyu showed his pity.
Yan Yu's heart was warm, and he said with a smile: "It's not in the way, don't worry." ”
seemed to find that the tone of the two of them was too ambiguous, Lin Xiaoyu also lowered his head slightly, not daring to touch Yan Yu's eyes, and even subconsciously retreated, trying to keep a distance.
Yan Yu broke the awkward silence: "By the way, we haven't caught that person yet, I'm afraid that he will jump off the wall in a hurry, don't let the child run out during this time, and discuss everything with Comrade Xiao Lu." ”
Lin Xiaoyu bit his lower lip and nodded: "You should be careful, wait...... Wait a while, come ...... Come and eat at home, kid...... Always mention you ......"
Yan Yu was also excited, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll go back when it stops." ”
Lin Xiaoyu also mustered up a lot of courage to say this, and his cheeks were hot at this time, which was hotter than the fire in the mountain col.
Yan Yu took the opportunity to ask, "By the way, there is something I want to ask you, don't think about it......"
Lin Xiaoyu smiled softly: "You ask." ”
Yan Yu finally said: "When they were sorting out Zhao Jianghai's relics, they found an iron coin, do you know how this iron coin came from?" ”
Lin Xiaoyu's smile froze instantly, as if he was suddenly hit by guilt, and the blazing in his eyes also turned into coldness, as if he couldn't talk to Yan Yu for her husband.
"He didn't mention it to me, and I haven't seen ......"
Yan Yu also knew that Zhao Jianghai's three words would inevitably bring such consequences, but this was something that could not be avoided, maybe one day, Lin Xiaoyu would be able to face this matter calmly, and in the face of the name Zhao Jianghai, there would be a possibility of further development between him and Lin Xiaoyu.
But Tie Qian had something to do with his father, and he couldn't help but ask, Zhao Jianghai was dead, and he had to ask.
Seeing that Yan Yu was a little disappointed, Lin Xiaoyu also seemed to be a little reluctant, pondered for a moment, and said to Yan Yu: "But...... Once he told me that he would soon be able to leave this place, that there was a noble person who could help him, and that the rest of the year was mysterious......"
"I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but hopefully......"
Yan Yu's eyes lit up: "Did he mention the name of the nobleman?" ”
Lin Xiaoyu shook his head: "No, but he respects this noble man very much, he has never believed in ghosts and gods, and he actually started burning incense during that time, and he didn't say ......anything when he asked him."
"Start burning incense?" Although he didn't have a name, based on this article alone, Yan Yu felt that the noble person should be his father!
It's just that why did he give iron money to Zhao Jianghai and promise to help Zhao Jianghai leave? Zhao Jianghai excavated the Dragon King Temple to find a water source, could it be related to his father?
Could it really be as Zhao Tongyi said, it is very likely that a clue to his father will be found under the Dragon King Temple?
When the two met, they were talking about Lin Xiaoyu's husband who had just died, but they felt awkward when they thought about it, Lin Xiaoyu couldn't stand it, and said to Yanyu: "I'll go back first if there's nothing, the child is still waiting for me to ......"
Yan Yu also felt guilty: "I shouldn't have asked......"
Lin Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "It's not your fault...... It's me...... In short, it will pass. ”
Yan Yu also smiled, and was about to respond, when suddenly there was a roar of engines on the mountain road outside, and several large trucks crashed into the billowing smoke and appeared in front of the mountain pass.
"It's the fire brigade coming!"
The car could not drive in, and the comrades of the fire brigade rushed in with fast and powerful steps, carrying various tools on their backs.
The leader and Meng Jiefang and the others understood the general situation, so they split up and launched an offensive to the fierce fire!
Because there are no water wheels, they can only use earth methods to extinguish the fire, just like the villagers, but they are determined and act quickly, completely leaving their personal safety behind, and extremely efficient.
The arrival of the fire brigade reassured everyone, and the villagers were not idle, Qin Dayou waited for a few old guys to die, and mobilized the villagers to protect the ancestral grave.
The leaders of the fire brigade could not stop them, so they had to send people to organize the villagers, direct the scene, and try to ensure their safety.
Seeing this, Yan Yu said to Lin Xiaoyu: "I haven't seen the children for a long time, I'll send you out and take a look at the children by the way." ”
Lin Xiaoyu was a little hesitant, but he knew that Yan Yu was remedying the conversation just now, so he also nodded.
The big and small pairs have not had their father's care since they were children, and after entering the school, they have a completely different respect for Yan Yu, and Yan Yu also cares about them, so they will subconsciously use Yan Yu to fill their father's vacancy.
In the past few days, under the protection of Xiao Lu, they have not been able to go out to play, they have long been bored, and when they saw Yan Yu, they surrounded them, squeaking and asking endlessly.
Taking advantage of this vacancy, Xiao Lu also opened for the time being and went to report to Meng Jiefang on the latest situation of his work.
Yan Yu laughed with them for a while, and Lin Xiaoyu was also full of joy and relief, until Yan Yu asked about their homework, and the children stopped.
Just as he was about to talk about studying, Xiao Lu suddenly ran back and said to Yan Yu: "Teacher Yan, Team Meng told you to go over quickly, there is a discovery in the ruins of the Dragon King Temple!" ”
"What did you find?" Yan Yu also stood up a little excitedly.
However, Xiao Lu was pale, looked at Lin Xiaoyu and the children, and said to Yan: "You will know it in the past......"
Yan Yu looked at his face, and his heart suddenly swelled with unease.
