Chapter 267: Veteran Murder Case III

The day Miao Qing returned to the village happened to be the day Miao Da's body was sent back.

Miao Da's body was found next to the official road outside Xuancheng, with more than a dozen stab wounds all over his body, and the fatal wound was in the left chest [heart].

Miao Da was dressed in tatters and had nothing on his body to prove his identity, so he was treated as a beggar and a homeless person, and the government was arranging for someone to prepare to throw his body into a mass grave.

He still recognized Miao Da among the runners in the same village, and he was kind-hearted and walked more than ten miles with Miao Da's body on his back and sent Miao Da home.

Miao Qing learned about the process of the matter from the mouths of the villagers, Miao Da's body was not accepted by his parents' family, and Miao Qing was also responsible for the funeral, and even the grave he entered was the ancestral grave of Miao Qing's own family.

Because Miao Da's leg was disabled on the battlefield to save Miao Biao, Miao Qing owed Miao Da a life.

Miao Qing helped Miao's daughter-in-law [Secret marriage, the girl is also willing] to break off relations with her family, and then took Miao's daughter-in-law to the city to settle down, and embarked on the road of avenging Miao.

After his investigation, Miao Da was hunted and killed outside Xuancheng, not by throwing his body.

This shows that Miao Da discovered something, or peeked into some secret, which led to the murder.

Miao Da was recruited as a retired soldier, so Mu Qing also pretended to be a soldier of the team. He is a soldier, and whether he retires from the army or not is a matter of his words, which is not difficult.

Soon after Miao Qing enlisted in the army, he became a stabbing soldier [pathfinder class, what he wanted was observation and reaction ability], and from Miao Da's affairs, he saw some key problems.

Miao Da was forced to come out to work because of the family's disobedience, and then it happened that there was such a good thing, and at this time, the brain generally didn't have time to think deeply, and it would fall into the pit dug by the other party.

So, he also pretended to be a helpless person in the family, and the compensation was paid out by his seriously ill parents, and in the end, his parents were not saved, and he owed a lot of debts.

Every day, I go up the mountain to collect some firewood to sell in exchange for some necessities for survival.

Sure enough, in less than half a month after he was like this, someone took the initiative to come to him, saying that he had a good job, his monthly silver was not low, and he could get ten taels a month if he did a good job.

Miao Qing inquired about why he had to be a veteran if he had the strength to do so, and the other party said that their master was once a soldier and had a special affection for soldiers, so he wanted to take care of those who had retired from the army and had difficulties in life.

Miao Qing agreed with a thousand thanks, rolled up a few clothes and followed the comer.

Those people first took Miao Qing to the river to pull a big boat, which is really manual work, but it is not a job that only veterans can do.

In this way, Miao Qing was in front of the slender man while exploring the truth of Miao Da's death. That is, in the days of the slender man, I met other people, all of whom were veterans, and they all couldn't live anymore and had to come out to earn money.

Miao Qing also noticed that although everyone is a veteran, they are not disabled, and the most serious thing is that their hands and feet are a little inconvenient, all of them have sound limbs and better physical strength than ordinary people.

About two months after they had been doing this, the man who had been looking for them came again, saying that he had a more earning job, and that he was going to pick the best of them all.

Those who have retired from the army are either older, or they have some physical problems, and Miao Qing, who is still on active duty, is naturally more prominent among them.

Including Jia Miaoqing, they selected a total of forty-eight people.

After walking for nearly four days, they came to a dense forest where it was difficult for a man to walk through it, and they took them to a cave in the middle of the woods, which was already filled with chests that the two men were carrying, and when they moved out, loaded a full twenty-three wagons.

Their task was to move the boxes out of the forest and transport them all the way to the capital.

"Those boxes are heavy, not at all like they say they have herbs in them, what herbs can be that heavy? said that it was more like a point with stones inside, and his subordinates were suspicious。。。。。。 It was filled with silver. ”

"Silver??" Everyone was shocked.

Twenty-three wagons of silver?

What is that number?

Mao Jianmin: "Are you sure?" ”

Miao Qing shook his head: "The subordinates are just suspicious, although there are only two people following us on the road, they are strong in martial arts and very strict in guarding, and the subordinates dare not move."

Another point, when we were almost in the capital, they let us change into military uniforms, I don't know which unit's uniform, but it was indeed a military uniform, light orange, with three gold threads on the sleeves. ”

Yan Xi's military uniform style is roughly the same, the difference is that the color of the military uniform of each unit is different, as for the gold edge of the sleeve, a few stripes represent which army belongs to which unit.

For example, the army of the Nine Emperor Uncles is purple, the Qilin Army is the elite of the entire Northeast Army, the military uniform is dark purple, the Qilin First Army is the Qilin First Army on the side of a gold line on the sleeve, the two are the Second Army, and so on.

"Light orange?" Miao Qing didn't know him, but Midnight knew.

The orange military uniform is the military uniform of the Southeast Army of the Southeast Guanwang, and the light color is the military uniform of the newly enlisted soldiers.

Northeast Army?

The Wang family?

Got involved with the Wang family again?

The army is composed of five people, ten people, fifty people, and one hundred people.

Forty-eight plus two, that is, one uncle.

Twenty-three more wagons were transported...

Midnight's eyes were cold, and he roughly guessed the reason why those people were going to choose veterans to transport.

As for the corpses ...

Soldiers are keen, even if they are discharged, something is carved into their bones.

Someone should have discovered the problem, or someone already knew about it, so they had to kill people, and threw the corpses into the river, thinking that they could float down the river and die without proof, who knew that a tree would come out of the river halfway.

And Miao Da's death should be the same as those corpses, but he escaped with more ability, so he was killed on the side of the road.

It can also be seen that those people are rampant.

The corpses were left on the side of the road like that, and they were not afraid that someone would follow the corpse to find them.

What caused them to dare to be so rampant?

Is it the protection of officials and officials?

Or is there a backer who is so strong that no one is afraid?

If you are really not afraid of anything, why use veterans as cover?

"Why are you being told about this?" Also fed soft tendons?

Miao Qing's face flushed: "When we arrived in the capital, they asked us to move the box to a courtyard, and then told us to rest for one night and leave."

The subordinate thought that this night was the last chance, so he took the opportunity to go to the hut at night to open a box to see what was inside.

The subordinates were found before they reached the box room, and the subordinates said that they had gone the wrong way, and they didn't say anything at the time, but only let the subordinates go back to sleep, but the next day the subordinates and others had breakfast, and they found that they had been hit by the weak tendons, and then they threw us on the carriage and transported us here. ”

"What about the others?" Didn't you say there were fifty?

There are only nine Miao Qing here.
