Chapter 1023: The Rat-Throwing Trap

In any case, Yun Sheng felt that part of the responsibility for this life fell on his head.

She chose to remain silent.

did not get into a possible quarrel with Zhang Jiusheng because of this person.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhang Jiusheng arrived at the Yamen, and Yun Sheng was squatting with Zhang Tong in the cell where "Xiao Hengyan" had stayed before.

"You say, will he leave any clues here?" Yun Sheng asked while pinching his nose while turning over the rotten straw.

"I don't know." Zhang Tong replied simply.

Yun Sheng stopped, straightened up, knocked on his sore back, glanced at Zhang Tong, whose face was dull, squinted his eyes, and asked, "Are you very reluctant?" ”

Zhang Tong rolled his eyes, and his mouth was wrong: "No, no." ”

"Also, it's really hard for you to keep running around with me as a pretend, and to go to this kind of smelly and dirty prison to find clues." Yun Sheng had a smile on his lips, and his eyes were particularly bright in the dimness.

Zhang Tong glanced at her, snorted, and stopped talking.

"I'll invite you to dinner when I turn around." Yunsheng said generously.

"I made a note of it." Zhang Tong responded and threw the rotten straw in his hand to the side.

Gu Li has been back for a while, he is dressed in black on weekdays, he hides in places where people can't see in the daytime, and he comes out to walk around a few times at night, and he is elusive, often scaring Zhang Tong.

This time, he stood outside the cell with his arms crossed, not in the slightest intention of going in to help.

Zhang Tong turned his head and glanced at him and asked, "Don't help?" Dry looking? ”

"yes." Gu Li replied calmly.

"Commander, you're so embarrassed." Zhang Tong scoffed.

"You also know that I am the leader of the hall, and I don't need to interfere in such small things." Gu Li was still motionless, looking like he had thick skin and couldn't be beaten.

Yun Sheng piled all the rotten straw in the cell into the corner without saying a word, looked clean, and walked to the place where the jailer said, "Xiao Hengyan" had been squatting before, including the stone bed that she had slept on a few times, she took the torch in her hand and shone it inch by inch.

This cell was not only where "Xiao Hengyan" had been, but also the countless prisoners before him, the corners of the stone bed were a little worn and cracked, including the lower part of the wall with an indescribable smell of choking.

"How? What did you find? Gu Li stood outside and asked.

Yun Sheng didn't answer, Zhang Tong glanced at him, and also took a torch to Yun Sheng's side, and followed to check slowly, they all hoped that "Xiao Hengyan" would be smarter and leave them some clues for reference.

In terms of implementation, the IQ of "Xiao Hengyan" is not as good as Lu Zhi.

He may have been so frightened that he was delirious.

Yun Sheng sighed, not knowing what to say, it was in vain.

Zhang Tong patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, we can go to his place again." ”

"Don't look at it." Zhang Jiusheng's voice suddenly came from behind, and his voice was extremely dull as he walked through the long corridor.

The three of them turned their heads, and saw Zhang Jiusheng striding over, he glanced at Yun Sheng, who had found nothing in the cell and looked extremely depressed, and said: "I have sent people to ask about the house where he lives, as well as the surrounding neighbors, no one knows when he lived in it, the owner of that house returned to the countryside as early as the beginning of the year, the house has not been inhabited, and no one has touched the things in the house, which means ......"

"It means that he is only temporarily staying there." Yun Sheng picked up the conversation.

"Yes."

The clue was simply cut off on "Xiao Hengyan".

"We don't even know who he is now." The corners of Yun Sheng's lips curled down, and she was frustrated.

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Jiusheng stood outside the cell, with his hands behind his back, quietly looked at Yun Sheng who was standing inside, and said, "He is not that important chess piece. ”

"What do you mean, do you have an idea?" Gu Li seemed to be smiling.

Zhang Jiusheng glanced at him and didn't say anything, just slowly stepped into the cell, took Yun Sheng's hand, pulled her out of it, and whispered as he walked out: "I have asked Tie Wan to spread the news in the yamen, the prisoner who was attacked in the yamen did not die, and was rescued by the eldest young master of the Zhang family." ”

Yun Sheng's eyes widened in disbelief.

Zhang Tong and Gu Li were stunned, and then reacted.

"My lord is so wise." Zhang Tong praised.

"But isn't the body still in the autopsy room?" Yun Sheng exclaimed, and then she shook off Zhang Jiusheng's hand and was about to run outside, but was dragged back by Zhang Jiusheng.

"Don't worry, since I'm here to inform you, I'm naturally making arrangements."

"And what's next?" Zhang Tong asked.

"Let's get out of here first." As Zhang Jiusheng spoke, he took the lead and walked outside the prison, followed by Yun Sheng.

After returning to the coroner's room, Yun Sheng really found that the body of "Xiao Hengyan" was no longer here, she looked at several houses nearby, and there was still no shadow of the corpse, and she couldn't help but look at Zhang Jiusheng.

Zhang Jiusheng smiled: "Don't worry, since I said that he didn't die, but he was also seriously injured, it is naturally impossible to put him in the yamen." ”

"My lord, didn't you send people to the eldest young master?" Zhang Tong asked with some surprise.

Zhang Jiusheng blinked mischievously.

"The eldest young master doesn't know kung fu, what if that murderer directly kills Baishitang, how can it be good?" Zhang Tong frowned and asked.

"Don't worry, since Lord Zhang is so confident, he must have laid down manpower in Baishitang. What's more, Young Master Zhang's reputation in the rivers and lakes, there should be many people in the rivers and lakes who will protect Young Master Zhang. "Gu Li has a good time.

The whole time, he looked as if he had been on the sidelines.

Now, Zhang Jiusheng turned his head to look at him, but he shrugged his shoulders and took a step back, showing that he didn't want to get involved in their affairs.

This person, although he is Li Hongzhi's person, he has also helped them a lot before this, but in Zhang Jiusheng's heart, he still can't tell whether he is an enemy or a friend.

With Gu Li's explanation, Zhang Tong was naturally not so worried.

It's just that Baishitang is not safer than Yamen, Zhang Qiye is still a martial artist, and the other party is ruthless, and he will not be lighter because of Zhang Qiye's status in the rivers and lakes.

Therefore, Yun Sheng still wanted to go to Baishitang to have a look.

They were going to Baishitang, but Gu Li didn't follow, but turned around and jumped out of the yamen wall, and he didn't know where he went.

"His whereabouts have always been a mystery." Faced with Yun Sheng's doubts, Zhang Tong explained.

In order to make the trick real, Zhang Qiye also put some makeup on the dead man, and his face didn't look so fake, but it was a little dead in the end.

But fortunately, "Xiao Hengyan" was seriously injured before he died, and there was still poison on the crossbow arrow, so Zhang Qiye specially smeared purple-black paint on his lips, as if he was unconscious from the poison.

When Zhang Jiusheng and the others came, Zhang Qiye was sitting in the room, facing a dead man, conscientiously checking his pulse.

As a doctor, he himself felt strange.

"Coming?"

Zhang Qiye retracted his hand and stuffed "Xiao Hengyan's" arm back into the quilt, just like he had been doing for those bedridden patients, with a skillful and unpretentious posture, Yun Sheng felt that "Xiao Hengyan" was not dead when he saw it.

"How's it going?" Zhang Jiusheng walked over and asked extremely naturally.

Yun Sheng and Zhang Tong stood behind, the two of them looked at each other, they didn't expect these two brothers to act so naturally, if they didn't know the inside story, maybe they would have been tricked in.

"The poison is cured, but the injury is quite serious, whether he can wake up or not depends on his own will." Zhang Qiye said, walked to the side of the wash basin, and cleaned his hands.

Hearing these words in the ears of several people in the know, I couldn't help but laugh in my heart.

He does have the will to live, but unfortunately, he will have to wait until the next life to survive.

Yun Sheng and Zhang Tong obviously don't have such thick skin, and it's good to be able to hold back and not laugh. Zhang Jiusheng glared at them head, and then continued to talk to Zhang Qiye.

"Brother, then I'll work hard for you."

"It's okay."

Yun Sheng cautiously took a few steps forward and looked at "Xiao Hengyan" lying on the bed, only to find that if he looked at it from a distance, it was a big living person, but if he got closer, he would notice that cold aura that could not be hidden, this is the breath that only a dead person can emit, and it is too familiar to people who have killed people or seen dead people.

Fortunately, the weather is cold now, but the corpse of "Xiao Hengyan" does not decay so quickly, and the stench does not come out so quickly.

In this regard, just in case, Zhang Qiye also smeared some antiseptic herbs on him, and smeared and sprinkled some herbs in some corners of the room and on the bed, making the house smell of medicine strong, but it can also cover up the smell of many dead bodies.

"How long can this be covered?" Yun Sheng asked.

The other party is a thoughtful person, and I don't know if such a small trick can deceive the other party.

Zhang Qiye frowned, he had also thought about this question, but for the decay of the corpse and the emission of the smell, this was a phenomenon that could not be stopped, even if he used embalming herbs, he was not sure, so he shook his head.

Nowadays, it's just a matter of taking one step at a time.

The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, which makes them seem extremely passive, but they are helpless, this is probably not the first time they have faced each other, but now they haven't even caught someone's tail, and they can't help but feel a little frustrated.

In the end, he has been in a small place for a long time and has not experienced a big scene of attacking his heart, Yun Sheng only feels that his current self is like a mouse that has been placed in broad daylight, and there are rat traps ready to be thrown at him from all directions at any time.

She was afraid of death.

She admits that if she wasn't afraid of death, she would have gone with her father many years ago.

When she was sitting in the courtyard of Zhang's mansion, Yun Sheng was only wearing a thin single coat until Zhang Jiusheng came over and put a cloak on her.

"Do you know how cold it is right now? Knowing that the poison in his body has been resolved, so he acts recklessly? Zhang Jiusheng was a little angry, God knows that for the sake of Yun Sheng's body, Zhang Qiye stayed up all night and looked through I don't know how many medical books.

Yun Sheng smiled apologetically, wrapped his cloak tightly, took Zhang Jiusheng's hand and sat down, and said, "I always feel that it is not that we are inviting you into the urn, but that we are being designed. ”

Zhang Jiusheng raised his eyebrows: "No matter what, we have to give it a try, at least let them know that we have noticed it and have made a counterattack, which will make them throw a mouse." ”

"That's right, they always thought that the yamen wouldn't take care of it, but they didn't expect you to manage it to the end, and even helped Hongdou escape."

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Jiusheng's back tightened suddenly, and he looked at Yun Sheng: "You know? ”

Yun Sheng smiled and didn't speak.

There are more and more small actions of the other party, which makes Zhang Jiusheng feel that his status in Fan County has been challenged, as the so-called strong dragon can't fight the head snake, Zhang Jiusheng has been powerful and blessed in Fan County for so many years, how can he allow others to talk nonsense?

If he didn't interfere, would he really think that he was eating white rice as a county magistrate?

The people under his command can only be bullied by him, as long as they come to his territory, they have to listen to him, and the emperor Lao Tzu can't come.

Zhang Jiusheng squinted his eyes and thought, if one day, Li Hongzhi really came, he would definitely treat him well, in order to stabilize his court, and see what Fan County, who had taken good care of him, had become like? The murders are endless, and the people who make trouble are panicking, and he hasn't even been to the Red Bean Terrace for several days, which is really excessive.
