Volume 01 The Mystery of the Case Chapter 035 This Road Doesn't Work

Zhao Shengyuan's bride is also from Deng County, and although Deng County and Ling County are adjacent to each other, Ling County is located in a mountainous area, and Deng County is basically in the plain outside the mountains, so the development of Deng County is far better than that of Ling County.

However, that is the current situation, as early as 40 years ago, because of the large number of people and the lack of land, Deng County could not even meet the basic conditions for having enough to eat, and the people in the mountainous areas of Lingxian County were slightly richer in comparison.

So at that time, there were many women in Deng County who wanted to cross the mountains and marry in Ling County.

I went to Zhao Shengyuan's bride's house, because forty years have passed, Zhao Shengyuan's bride's parents and eldest brother have passed away, leaving the bride's second brother and sister-in-law, who accepted my inquiry.

The family's surname is Liang, and the bride's name is Liang Yinglan.

The Liang family's economic conditions are good, and they have built a small two-story building.

In fact, many peasants in Deng County have built small buildings, unlike the mountainous families in Lijia Village, Lingxian County, which are still mostly mud-walled and red-tiled houses.

Liang Yinglan's second brother is old and a little deaf, so it's basically Liang's second aunt talking to me.

"You have to ask my sister-in-law, say that she has a hard life, and it can't be considered bitter, the key is that she has a too strong temper and doesn't have much contact with us! A few years ago, when my father and mother were still alive, she came back once a year or two, and when the two old people died, it was a full twenty years, and she never came back! ”

As soon as Aunt Liang opened her mouth and said this, I hurriedly asked her what happened when Liang Lanying disappeared for a while.

Aunt Liang looked left and right, and then lowered her voice and said, "Didn't the man she married first say that he was a thief and murderer?" Although she hasn't entered the cave room yet, her reputation must have spread! I guess she couldn't get angry with herself, so she just ran away from home! Anyway, it was three years later that she suddenly came back, saying that she had married to Ling County, and told her father and mother not to worry about her anymore! ”

Aunt Liang shook her head again and again when she said this, and said: "You said how ruthless she is, there has been no news for three years, she is really not afraid that her father and mother will worry about death!" I finally came back, and I didn't invite us brothers and sisters-in-law to her house to have a look, I guess she was afraid that we would marry her to a murderer and stab her in-laws! So until now, we don't know what the situation is like in her family, and we don't even know what her man's last name is! ”

As she spoke, she glanced to the left and right again, lowering her voice even more.

"I listened to what she meant when she talked to her parents, and she even changed her name to her in-laws' house, as if she was called something...... Oops, I can't remember! ”

I hurriedly asked her to think about it carefully, Aunt Liang Erwei frowned and thought for a long time, but still shook her head.

"She hasn't been back for more than 20 years, if it weren't for you to come to investigate, I would have forgotten about her! Not to mention that the name she changed was never mentioned to us at all, but when she was talking to her parents, I occasionally heard a sentence or two, but I didn't really hear it very clearly! But one thing is for sure, she hasn't even changed her surname, so she still has the surname Liang! ”

I didn't think she was lying, so I asked about other things, but there was basically nothing of value left.

I couldn't even find a photo of Liang Lanying, in the words of Liang Er's aunt, when her father and mother died, Liang Lanying had come back and took away all her personal belongings, including photos.

My brother and sister-in-law have been very estranged from her because of her incomprehension, so naturally they will not force her to leave one or two photos at home.

So I left the Liang family and rushed back to Lingxian by car first, without a moment's delay, I immediately went to Lijia Village and met with Li's mother.

It's a pity that as soon as Mother Li saw me, she avoided the back room and ignored me at all.

I had no choice but to go to the village party secretary to find out the situation.

But the village party secretary was still young and didn't remember much about what happened 40 years ago, but he clearly told me that Li's mother was not a foreigner and did not have the surname Liang at all.

I felt a little dazed again, because if Mother Li was not Liang Yinglan, then even if my previous speculation was correct, I would not be able to explain why the "reincarnation spirit talisman" was worn on Wu Yanling's neck.

Could it be that there is something else in it that I have not yet found out?

I was not convinced and found the previous village party secretary with the village party secretary, the old man was in good health, and when I inquired about Li's mother, he didn't think much about opening his mouth and said.

"You said Li Geng,, she is from our village, I'm only a few years older than her, basically I grew up watching her grow up! Her nickname is Peach, and she and Li Laoshi have been engaged by the adults of the two families since they were children. Later, the bigger the peach, the more beautiful it became, and at the beginning, I still looked down on Li Laoshi, but Li Laoshi almost did all the work of the peach family, which moved the peach, and finally married Li Laoshi! ”

Li Laoshi is Li Geng's father's nickname. It can also be seen from this that Li Geng's father's personality is a person.

But in this case, there is a major flaw in my speculation.

And to plug this flaw, I'm afraid I still have to find Zhao Shengyuan's bride Liang Yinglan.

I'm afraid I have a preconceived attitude, early on because Li Geng's appearance is close to Zhao Shengyuan, so I think that there is some involvement between Li Geng's mother and Zhao Shengyuan.

As a result, as soon as I heard that Zhao Shengyuan's bride Liang Yinglan ran away from home and married in Lingxian, I was full of excitement and decided that Liang Yinglan was Li Geng's mother.

So much so that I didn't conduct an in-depth investigation in Deng County at all, so I hurried back to Lijia Village for verification.

Therefore, investigators must not have personal feelings, let alone trust their own inferences too much, everything needs to be proven by conclusive evidence.

Now I can only go back to Deng County and do another investigation.

Fortunately, there is a highway between Deng County and Ling County.

However, in the past, the road was not easy to walk, and it took at least two and a half hours by long-distance bus.

Today, not only has the old road been widened and rebuilt, but a highway has also been built.

This is also one of the reasons why I hurried back to Ling County without in-depth investigation in Deng County.

Because now it is a two-hour drive from Lingxian to Deng County by ordinary bus. If you drive by car, you can get there in an hour and a half along the expressway.

So I went to the Lingxian Police Station to ask Captain Wang to borrow a car, and an hour and a half later, I rushed to Liang Yinglan's village.

This investigation really made me find out a fact that I never imagined before.

The suspicion of the Li family has been completely cleared so far.

As for why Li Geng looks very similar to Zhao Shengyuan, at least during that time period, I thought it was pure coincidence.
