Leqing City is very far away from the capital, but Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu are not in a hurry, they drive the carriage to the capital slowly, in addition to cultivation along the way, they understand the places they pass by, and they understand some legends and humanistic customs, which makes them really feel that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.

On this day, the two of them came to a place called Jiangcheng, which is a small city, and it is a place where the official road passes, but it is not an important place, so there is no other important geographical location of the city, and it can only be regarded as medium in the city that Lin Tianyang and the others passed by.

Lin Tianyang and the others were going to rest here for a day, rest for a while and then continue to hurry, so they found an inn to stay.

The two of them took a good bath, washed away all the fatigue of their bodies, and then came to the restaurant in the front hall to order a few dishes and ate slowly.

"Did you hear that? Another pregnant woman was killed last night. A diner asked the person next to him.

"I heard that this is the third one, it's the same as the first two people, they both had their stomachs cut open with knives, the children are gone, and they died miserably." A man next to him said.

"According to those old people, this may be some kind of ghostly trick, a few years ago, we Jiangcheng did make trouble with fox fairies or something, it was more than ten years ago, it has stopped a lot in the past few years, I can't imagine that such a thing will happen again." Another said.

When Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu heard this, they glanced at each other, and immediately walked up to those people.

"Brothers, may I ask where the thing you just said happened?" Lin Tianyang asked.

Hearing Lin Tianyang's words, several people looked at the two of them, and they all showed puzzled looks, and one of them asked, "Why are you asking this?" ”

Lin Tianyang hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand, our brother and sister have learned the Tao from the master since childhood, and this time they are going down the mountain to practice, and when they hear that something like this is happening here, they want to check what is going on and give justice to those who died." ”

Hearing Lin Tianyang's words, the faces of several people changed instantly, looking at Lin Tianyang and the two of them showed a look of adoration, and the others were the same, they all looked at the two of them with respect.

Several people hurriedly stood up, and the person who spoke before clasped his fists and said, "It turned out to be two mages, disrespectful and disrespectful." The others also clasped their fists in salute to the two men.

"You're welcome, tell me where the bodies of those people are." Lin Tianyang said.

"It's in the yamen's room." The man replied.

"Thank you, then we'll take our leave." Lin Tianyang clenched his fists and said, he was about to leave.

"You don't know where the yamen is, do you? I'll take you there, I'm full anyway. The man said, and then the people around said hello, and walked towards the yamen with Lin Tianyang and the others.

Along the way, Lin Tianyang and the others inquired about some details of the three cases, and the person who led them was called Chen Da, who told the two of them everything he knew, and told them some legends and even rumors.

When the three of them came to the yamen, they saw many people gathered outside the yamen, and some people were crying.

"These are the families of those three pregnant women, don't talk about them, everyone is sad, that's six lives, those three children were not born, hey, what a sin." Chen Da sighed and said, and then said, "Wait a minute, you two, I'll go and ask what's going on." ”

After finishing speaking, Chen Da went to the crowd, chatted with the two of them for a few words, and came back.

"Two, a mage came this morning, and he was inside to examine the corpse, and these people were all waiting for news." Chen Da looked at Lin Tianyang and the others and said.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu glanced at each other, although there was already a mage, they still wanted to go in and have a look.

"Brother Chen, do you have a way for us to go in and have a look?" Lin Tianyang asked.

"I'll go and ask, there should be no problem, and now I don't have a clue about those fast catchers." Chen Da said, and then walked over to the two officials guarding the gate of the yamen.

Chen Da walked up to the two officials, told them about the situation, and one of them walked towards the gate.

After coming over for a while, the official came out and said a word to Chen Da, and Chen Da beckoned to Lin Tianyang and the others with a happy face and let them pass.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu walked through the crowd.

"You two are mages?" The official asked, looking at the two men.

These two people were too young, and the officials were suspicious in their hearts.

"Yes, the two of us entered the world to practice, and when we heard that something was happening here, we thought we would come over and see if we could help." Chen Susu said with a smile.

Hearing Chen Susu's words, the officer's face looked much better, and he said, "Okay, you guys come with me." ”

"Go ahead, I won't go, and I won't be able to help if I go." Chen Da said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Chen." Lin Tianyang said with a smile.

"You're welcome, you should be." Chen Da said with a smile.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu followed the official into the yamen, turned left and right, and came to the most remote corner of the yamen, there was a sign hanging outside a room, with the words "廵師動動動動��

Lin Tianyang and the three of them walked over, and the official walked into the room and came out quickly, but his face was not very good-looking.

"Your Excellency let you in, be mentally prepared, don't be scared." The official said to Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu nodded, and walked into the room.

There are still six people in the room, there are six people, an old Taoist is checking a corpse, a person next to him is wearing an official uniform, it should be the lord of the city, a literati dressed next to him, it should be a master, and two people are catching fast, the older one is wearing a purple coat, it should be a head catcher, and he is following another fast catcher and a good man to fight the old way.

"I've seen my lord!" Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu saluted the city lord together.

Seeing that the two of them were so young, the city lord did not show any unusual looks, but nodded and said: "You're welcome, Daochang Shen is checking the last corpse, and there will be a conclusion in a while, you two should check these two corpses first, and confirm with Daoist Shen's conclusion in a while, I hope your conclusion can play a role in solving the case." ”

"Yes, sir!" Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu answered, and then started to examine the nearest corpse.

That Shen Dao Chang glanced at Lin Tianyang and the others, showed a look of disdain, sneered and shook his head, and then continued to inspect the corpse.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu carefully examined the corpse, this is a woman about twenty years old, there is only one wound on her body, that is, on the stomach, but this wound is more than a foot long, the stomach has been dissected, the internal organs are still there, but the fetus is gone, and even the Zihe car connected to the fetus is gone.

But the woman's face did not have a painful look, it was still very normal, it was a little whiter, and there was no pain, she should have been stunned before she was killed.

Lin Tianyang and the others carefully examined the wound and found that the wound was very neat, it should have been cut by a sharp weapon, but the wound did not have yin qi, obviously it was not a ghost, it should be artificial.

"Lift her up and let her sit." Chen Susu said softly.

As soon as Lin Tianyang stretched out his hand, he lifted the body up and made her sit up.

Chen Susu lifted the clothes of the female corpse, and there was a pitch-black palm print on the back of the female corpse, Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu both showed surprised looks, this is obviously a ghost handprint, but the wound has no yin qi, could it be that one person and one ghost committed the crime together?

Chen Susu examined other parts of the corpse, but found no more ghost handprints, so he began to examine the next corpse.

On the body of the second corpse, Lin Tianyang and the others found the ghost handprint again, but this time the ghost handprint was not on the back, but on the thigh.

Shen Daochang finished inspecting the corpse at this time, and looked at Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu with a smug expression.

Lin Tianyang and Chen Susu glanced at each other, and they didn't go to check the third corpse, they knew that this Shen Daochang was definitely going to compete with them, so they left the last corpse to fight with him.

"My lord, we have examined the two corpses, and we don't need to examine the third, we already have a general understanding of the murderer." Lin Tianyang said with a fist clenched to the city lord.

Before the city lord could speak, Shen Daochang smiled and said, "Hehehehe... It's really young and promising, you checked the bodies of the two houses and found the murderer, I don't know who the murderer is? ”

Lin Tianyang's face turned cold when he heard this, and he looked at Daoist Shen and said angrily: "This Daoist, have you stuffed chicken feathers in your ears?" I'm talking about having a general understanding, when did I say I knew who the murderer was? Looks like you've found the killer, and we'd like to hear your opinion. ”

Hearing Lin Tianyang's words, Shen Daochang was stunned, he didn't expect Lin Tianyang to give him so faceless, and actually refute him like this in front of the city lord, and he immediately became angry, but after glancing at the city lord, he still suppressed his anger.

"Hmph, don't be reckless if you don't have the ability." Shen Daochang endured his anger and said, then hugged his fist to the city lord and said: "My lord, after the inspection of this way, the wounds of these three corpses are smooth, they should all be killed by sharp weapons, the murderer's method of killing is the same, it should be done by the same person, as for the identity of the murderer, I suspect that it is not a person, it is a ghost." ”
