Chapter 7: Half of the Truth

The old gentleman was dead after all, and there was no clue from him about the caravan case of three years ago. They carefully looked through the file and found nothing new, so they took their leave with the county magistrate and continued to visit the remaining two villagers.

Before leaving, Yun Luo casually replaced the dossier and took another dossier and stuffed it into this paper sleeve.

Feng Yan was the strong man who taunted Yunluo that day, his family lived in a village outside the city, and when he saw that it was a few of them who came to cut the firewood in their hands, he cut the axe on the stake and asked, "Why are you?" ”

Yun Luo pouted and didn't have a good impression of him, the whole person was not friendly at all, standing at the gate of the courtyard and refusing to go in. However, Rong Zhou also clenched his fists slightly at him, and said politely: "A few of us are ordered by the county master to ask some questions." ”

"You guys are also suspects, why are you asking me? Go out, I don't have time to entertain you. Feng Yan waved his hand, and at this time, an old woman came to the door, crutches and said, "There is a guest at home?" Come in, please come in, what a handsome little girl, she looks pleasing. ”

As soon as the old woman entered the courtyard, she saw Yunluo standing by the courtyard gate, and the little girl immediately smiled sweetly when she heard the praise, and rolled her eyes and said, "Grandma, slow down, I'll help you in." ”

"This girl is so good." The old woman smiled kindly at Yun Luo, turned her head to look at her son, and pretended to be fierce: "Leather boy, why don't you go and move a few chairs out and make some tea." There are guests who are not well entertained, how old are you who don't marry a daughter-in-law with a fierce face all day long? ”

As soon as Feng Yan heard the old lady talking about this, she hurriedly went in and moved a chair to make tea, and Rong Zhou also took the opportunity to give Yun Luo a look, and she immediately understood.

"Grandma, we are from the county government. This county lord asked us to inquire about something, do you think it is inconvenient for us to stay? She still has to respect the old man's meaning, and Rong Zhou on the side didn't expect this girl to be so sincere in her questions, but she was going to be stupid.

"It's about what happened in the Guanyin Temple a few days ago, alas, although my leather boy is a little fierce, he is definitely not a murderer." The old woman has always remembered this in her heart, and the road guide from her home has been taken away, which means that she has always been suspicious. The people in this village are most afraid of encountering this kind of thing, and they will be poked in the back by someone.

"We know that the uncle will not be a murderer, we want to ask him if he saw anything strange in the temple that day."

Rong Zhou also interjected appropriately, seeing that he was about to nag his parents, he didn't want Yun Luo to continue asking.

"I didn't see anything strange, but before the temple collapsed that day, I heard the wind and the clanging sound." Feng Yan came out with a square table and replied to their words, Yun Luo pouted, not understanding what was so strange about this: "Isn't it normal to have wind on a thunderstorm?" The torches were blown out by the wind that day. ”

"Yes, that was the time. The sound of the wind seemed to be blowing in my ears, because the wind outside was not only pouring into the temple, but I felt two completely different winds, so I thought it was strange. ”

Feng Yan also told others about this, but others didn't believe it, and said that he was playing tricks on his own. But he was sure that what he felt that day was two different winds.

Yun Luo wrinkled her little face and couldn't understand why there were two winds, but Rong Zhou also got up and walked behind Feng Yan and slapped his palm at the void.

"That's right! That's how it feels, that's it! The exact same feeling came from the side of his ear, Feng Yan was a little excited, sure enough, it was either that he felt wrong, or that there were two different winds.

Yun Luo's eyes widened, she stood up, opened her mouth, said nothing, and sat back again.

"Do you want to ask what's the use of slapping this palm out?" Rong Zhou also felt funny when she saw her deflated appearance, and the little girl nodded violently and said, "Yes, slap this ......"

"I see, this palm is the reason for the collapse of the roof beams." Yun Luo thought about it halfway through her words, but she frowned again after a second thought: "But it shouldn't be, you two don't find it, Chuan Chuan shouldn't feel it, the palm power that can make the eaves collapse must not be weak, how can it not be discovered......"

Ye Qi was a little unconvinced, he was one of the best guards in the capital, how could he become a half-hung person in her mouth?

"Speaking of which, I thought the wind was not normal that day, but it was dim and I was so focused on your safety that I didn't pay attention to anything else." Qing Chuan recalled that he really didn't care about anything else that day, and the moment the wind poured in, his thoughts were all on Miss.

"It's a lot clearer now, it's just the jingle ...... Let's go back to the temple and have a look. Rong Zhou also has a rough idea in his heart, but there is no evidence yet, and some details are still incomplete, and he still needs to check it.

"Grandma, do you know about the haunting of the temple three years ago? I heard that the people who went to the temple at that time were sick, but do you know how they got sick and how they were sick? Yun Luo thought that the old grandmother was so old that she must know something about the past, so she asked.

Sure enough, the old woman really knew.

"There were people in our village who went to join in the fun of the 'ghost catching' incident back then, but he didn't come back sick, so he didn't know how he got sick and what his illness looked like. But I heard the boy say that he couldn't see anything outside, only the movement inside. ”

He didn't hear those who said there was a wicked spirit crying inside. He only heard the panic and shouts of the villagers, but when the incident became so big that he didn't say much about what he had been there that night. ”

The old woman said slowly, and Yun Luo had an idea in her heart - everything outside the temple is fine, but all the people in the temple are sick, could it be poisoned?

Yun Luo asked some other questions before saying goodbye to the old woman, but it was getting late and she didn't want to go outside the city, after all, there were more than a dozen dried corpses dug up, and she was a little stunned.

Rong Zhou also relied on her, thinking that it would not be too late to go again tomorrow. At night, Yun Luo took her own bottles and cans and tinkered all night, and did not take a drowsy nap until it was dawn.

Because she had to go outside the city in the morning, she didn't sleep for too long, and she was listless with dark circles under her eyes. The road to the outside of the city was not halfway there, so he said that he would not go or go, and he had to carry it on Qingchuan's back.

There was a commotion in the city, she vaguely heard what Jinfu was recruiting, she didn't pay attention to it, and when sleepiness came, she fell asleep on Qingchuan's back in a daze, and when she arrived at the place, she squatted aside and watched Ye Qi and Qingchuan still yawn when they rummaged through the ruins.

The fallen bricks and wood had already been cleaned up by the officials, and the walls had been stripped off, leaving the place with some wood slag and bricks.

The two of them rummaged left and right in the place where Feng Yan was sitting that night, and Rong Zhou also stood aside and thought about it, and took a small bag of snacks from his arms.

"Seeing that you haven't eaten in the morning, let's pad your stomach while it's still hot."

Yun Luo looked at the bag of dim sum and was not polite, she was really hungry.

"Thank you." She took the snack and ate it in small bites, Rong Zhou also looked at her sideways, and couldn't understand what this girl was thinking.

said she was stupid, but she would prepare in advance for the county order poison. said that she was not stupid, but she couldn't figure out some very simple things. said that she has a weak personality, and she will save people on the street. said she was kind, but what she said didn't look like ......

This girl seems to be a mystery, and she can't read or guess it.

"There are silver needles."

Ye Qi suddenly shouted and pulled back his thoughts, he withdrew his eyes and walked over, and Yun Luo also followed with a pastry in her mouth.

They found a very special silver needle, and they couldn't say what was special about it.

"This is not a silver needle, it is a hidden weapon. It is thinner than an embroidery needle and thicker than an acupuncture needle, but this silver needle ...... It wasn't the murder weapon of the wound on Lord Zhou's head, the hole was thicker than the thick needle on the sole of Na's shoe. ”

Yun Luo was talking, and Lao Li rushed over with a few servants and servants.

"When the guards of the city said that you were out of the city, I knew that you had come here. But what's going on? Lao Li was also familiar with them, so he asked.

Rong Zhou also nodded and said in a low voice: "There is some progress, it's hard to say at the moment." ”

Lao Li didn't ask, he deliberately came over to report the situation this time, and the county lord specially instructed that this matter must be told to the divine doctor.

"Miss Yun, the top of Lord Wang's head has been examined, and there is a very slight wound that you can't see if you don't look carefully."

Yun Luo handed over the silver needle they had found and asked, "Can a wound be this size?" ”

He took it and looked at it, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes, this one roughly matches that wound." Xia Guan compared every embroidery needle, but the result was too thick. ”

"This is a hidden weapon, called the cow hair needle. Because the needle is slender, it is not easy to leave a wound when it penetrates the body. Qingchuan has a lot of research on this kind of thing, and casually answered.

Rong Zhou also stood in the ruins, and according to the descriptions of Yunluo and the three villagers, he began to restore the situation that might have happened at the scene of the day little by little, trying to see if he could connect the clues he obtained.

"Miss Yun, there's something very strange. Both of them were stabbed to the Baihui acupoint and died, but why was Lord Zhou's wound so obvious? There was even blood ......"

Yun Luo is also thinking about this problem, the technique is the same but the wound is different, could it be that the murderer deliberately wants people to find that body? Is it just to pretend to be a mystery and intimidate the rest of the people with the theory of ghosts and gods......

"I see." Rong Zhouyi's words successfully attracted everyone's attention, and Yun Luo leaned over and asked, "Do you know who the murderer is?" ”

"Half and half, I just figured it out, what Feng Yan felt may not be the palm wind, and it must not be the palm wind that interrupts the eaves."

Yun Luo was a little dizzy again, why didn't she break the eaves palm wind? Instead of breaking the eaves, what is that?

Rong Zhou also pretended to be mysterious, and changed the topic: "We still haven't visited, forgot?" ”

She thought about it carefully, and there was a particularly timid young man, but he was a little delirious that night, and what could he ask him?

Looking at his determined eyes, Yun Luo's eyes were full of doubt and disbelief. was more dissatisfied with him halfway through his words, Rong Zhou also raised his feet and walked towards the city, passing by her side and reaching out to rub her head, obviously in a good mood.

Yun Luo touched her kneaded hair and snorted at his back as she pretended to be ruthless.
