A total of more than a dozen dried corpses were dug up in the ruined temple, and all of them were sent back to the yamen for examination. Yun Luo lost interest and continued to stay here, and went back with Qingchuan.

I was a little hungry on the way, and I remembered that I was angry when I took out the snacks in the morning - I was afraid that he would be so hungry that he took the snacks, so it was better to feed the dogs!

Of course, this snack was actually fed to the dog in the end.

Kiyokawa didn't know what was wrong with Miss, but he didn't say much. When he returned to the inn, he was hesitant to order some food for the young lady, and Rong Zhou also came over.

Yeqi took the opportunity to pull Qingchuan out and left the two alone in the house.

"Still angry?" Rong Zhou also put down the food box in his hand, and brought out the prepared shredded meat noodles inside and put it in front of her.

Yunluo sniffed her nose, this shredded meat noodles tasted very fragrant. Originally, she was a little hungry, and her stomach growled even more when she smelled such a fragrance.

"Hmph, don't think I'm not angry with a bowl of noodles." As she spoke, she didn't stop. He dragged the noodles in front of him and ate them in a big gulp.

"It's me who doesn't choose what to say, and I ask the girl not to remember the villain." Rong Zhou also smiled slightly, and his attitude was always gentle.

Yun Luo pursed her lips, not paying any more attention to his previous gaffe.

"I just went to the ruined temple, and that place is really weird. The officials dug up more than a dozen dried corpses in the wall, which was terrifying. Yun Luo sucked the noodles and shared what she knew with him, regardless of her previous suspicions.

Rong Zhou also touched his chin and said, "More than ten dried corpses? Could it be the same caravan that couldn't find the body three years ago? ”

"It's possible, if it was buried in the wall from the beginning, it could be a dried corpse in three years." Yunluo only thinks that this noodle is really delicious, much better than what Chuan Chuan makes, and he has to go to the cook to learn it these days.

"Didn't Lao Li say that those adults did magic and rebuilt the temple because of the rumors of haunting. The temple should be built to hide the corpse, it seems that the case back then was indeed related to them. ”

Rong Zhou didn't expect that these people would be able to bury the body in the wall and hide it for three years, but why did the old gentleman die? Kill people? So who did it?

"Well, so what do we do next?" Yun Luo ate too quickly and hiccuped, he reached out and poured a glass of water, and said softly: "Eat slowly, let's go and ask the people present that day later, Lord Wang and Lord Zhou both died in front of our eyes, and the people present that day will not be able to get rid of the relationship." ”

Yun Luo snorted, quickly ate a bowl of noodles, and finally patted her belly with satisfaction when there was no soup left.

At night, he went to the yamen early in the morning to collect all the information, except for the group of merchants and the four adults who were let go. There are only a few people in the town left, one is the hot-tempered strong man Feng Yan, and the other is the more timid young man Gao Rui.

The other two are Liu An and Zhang Tai, who have never spoken much.

Several people went to Liu An and Zhang Tai's homes first, and neither of them seemed to know anything about the events of the year. Liu An didn't know anything, and he said that he was frightened and didn't find anything wrong at the scene.

Zhang Tai didn't notice anything wrong, but when it came to those adults, he said more.

"Lord Xu was suddenly removed from his post two years ago, and I don't know why he was removed. The four people in the temple that night had always been close to Lord Zhou, who was the first to disappear, especially the rich merchant who appeared out of thin air outside the gold clerk, and he was also familiar with several adults, which was really surprising. ”

Zhang Tai is a little older, and he knows more than ordinary people.

"I heard that Jin Yuanwai was born as a mountain bandit, I don't know if this rumor is true or false?" Rong Zhou also remembered this matter and asked more, Zhang Tai pondered for a moment, and his expression seemed to be a little hesitant.

"This ...... At that time, the mountain bandits around the town were rampant, and it was only two years ago that General Xiao Chu led his troops to clear it out. I have seen none of the mountain bandits alive, so I don't know whether the Jin Yuanwai is a mountain bandit or not. ”

Rong Zhou couldn't ask anything else, so he got up and left Zhang Tai's house, and then took everyone to Feng Yan's house.

On the way, Yun Luo always frowned, occasionally looking at Rong Zhou, as if he had something to say but kept talking.

"What do you want to say?" Rong Zhou also asked softly, but the little girl was still entangled, puffing out her mouth and muttering: "I'm not sure if what I think is right." ”

"Tell me, how do I know?" He can be said to have a good attitude, and he speaks softly for fear that he will kill her again.

Yun Luo sighed and said, "The county order was poisoned two years ago, and it is still a chronic poison seven-tailed flower. I've always forgotten to say that although the seven-tailed flower is a chronic poison, if it is induced, it can kill instantly. ”

"Why did the people behind the scenes choose this poison, is it because they want to hide something very important? But so far, the county order has not found out, so he has been spared. ”

Rong Zhou also passed through his reminder, and suddenly his thinking was clear, and he said with a smile: "Don't kill him, because he hasn't been in contact with the matter that he wants to be concealed in the past two years, if he is rashly killed, and then the imperial court appoints a young talent, it may not be as easy to deal with as him." ”

"Girl, let's go to the county government first."

Saying that, a few people turned around and quietly went to the county yamen, and it was impossible for the yamen to be without the eyeliner of the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Those who want to kill the county order should be those adults, and what they are hiding should be the file of the caravan case three years ago, or the file that Lord Xu made mistakes during his tenure, in short, this thing will definitely implicate Lord Xu and even several other people. That's why I heard Master Li's sentence, which ruined his good deeds. ”

Rong Zhou also said as he walked, Yun Luo felt that what he said was really reasonable, this person was so smart.

The four of them quietly entered the yamen all the way, climbed over the wall and found the county order and asked him to take them to the case file room.

"After the arrival of the lower officials, in order to distinguish between the old and new cases. I moved all the previous files to this warehouse, and I haven't opened them for a long time since they were locked on weekdays. ”

Rong Zhou can also understand that this is one thing that all new officials will do when they take office. If it involves an old case, at least it is clear whose responsibility it is, so as not to bear the guilt in vain.

There was a lot of dust in this house, and Yun Luo said that she would not go in for anything, so she squatted outside the door and watched them rummage.

Qingchuan is also a clean-loving person, I don't know where to move two chairs, and it seems that I went to the kitchen to get a plate of small snacks.

"Hey, the taste of this snack ......" Yun Luo was eating when she noticed that something was wrong, and leaned over to her nose to smell it and said, "It seems to be Jasmine, is there any jasmine residue in the food he ate that day?" ”

Qingchuan shook his head slightly, looking like I can't help you. But also, how did he know what was inside the county order when he was outside the door?

Yun Luo also held her forehead, although she was not afraid to look at those things, she would not look carefully, where would she notice what was in the things spit out by the county order.

"County master, can you let the cook come over?" She shouted into the house, and the county magistrate immediately ordered someone to bring the cook over.

And Rong Zhouyi and Ye Qi also turned over the files of Lord Xu in the last year of his tenure and carried them to the courtyard.

"Poof, I'm a gray man." Yun Luo pointed at Rong Zhou and laughed, he was helpless when he saw the girl laughing, it happened that he was wearing a light-colored shirt today, and it was strange to turn it over without staining the ashes.

The little girl laughed for a while and the cook was brought over, and Rong Zhou and Ye Qi carefully looked through the dossier on the side.

"Cook, did you put jasmine in the meal you cooked yesterday?" Yunluo got straight to the point and asked her directly what she wanted to know. As soon as the cook thought about it, she immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yesterday Master Li sent someone to say that if you want to eat steamed fish at night, it is best to add some crushed jasmine." ”

"This dish was also sent to the prefectural order?"

"Yes, Lord Li said that the county lord was not feeling well during the day, so he just took fish soup to make up for it."

Yunluo raised her eyebrows, thanked the cook and let her go back. The county commander on the side was puzzled, and was stunned for a long time and said, "He, what did he do to me?" ”

"What else do you think you can do for it?"

Rong Zhou also shook the file in his hand, and brought up a cloud of dust again. originally wanted to be handsome, but was choked with a mouthful of ash.

"Ahem...... Ahem, if you hadn't checked the file for so long, I'm afraid you wouldn't have survived now. ”

The dossier clearly records that the money for the rebuilding of the Guanyin Temple three years ago came from the public funds of the Yamen, and this matter was filled in later, which is why Lord Xu was suddenly dismissed.

"It's just that he has already been fined for public funds, why do you still want to kill people?"

The county lord hurriedly took the file and took a closer look, and said after a while: "This handwriting belongs to the old gentleman, he was the master of Lord Xu at the beginning. ”

Rong Zhou also stood up suddenly, looking at the county order and complaining: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

The county commander laughed twice, he really didn't expect that so many people would be involved in this matter, even the little master.

"The old gentleman has been with Master Xu for so long, so he must know a little about what he did. There must be other secrets hidden in this file, which should be the reason why Lord Xu didn't attack the old gentleman in the past two years, and he was always ready to kill the adult. ”

Rong Zhou only felt that he was suddenly enlightened, so there must be evidence in the old man's family to prove the guilt of several other adults. But Lord Xu didn't dare to do it for so many years before, so why did he have to kill him now?

Is it because it is imminent or because the evidence in the hands of the old gentleman has already been destroyed?

He was thinking about these questions, and Yun Luo on the side was eating pastries and still had some doubts in his heart - if the murderers of the caravan were these adults, then who knew the truth of the year and killed them?
