Riverside.

Many people gathered around the people on the earth, but they did not dare to raise their voices.

When Hua Zhi and Feng Ran saw the tragic death of the corpse on the ground, their faces turned pale, and Gu Yuchen held Feng Ran in front of them, preventing the corpse from staining Feng Ran's eyes.

He Jun was also very kind to pull the flower branch behind him, and squeezed into the crowd with great effort, the man on the ground, about fifty years old, his body was swollen, and his death was not terrifying, but it was gloomy.

The human body was well preserved, Gu Yuchen stepped forward and wanted to touch the man, but everyone looked at the ordinary-looking Gu Yuchen in horror and retreated.

"Is this guy on the watch?"

Gu Yuchen asked.

The people on the side stepped back, looked at Gu Yuchen with horror, and whispered, "Yes." ”

Gu Yuchen narrowed his eyes, and as soon as he took out his hand, several people suddenly rushed out.

Ma carried the corpse on the ground away.

Gu Yuchen frowned, the few officers and soldiers just now, their expressions were numb, it seems that it is not the first time they have encountered this kind of thing.

A few people returned to the inn, and the nausea in Feng Ran's heart hadn't been over yet, "What should I do next?" ”

"Didn't they say that this is the case for those who speak loudly, so why don't we try it too?"

Feng Ran somewhat disagreed with He Jun's words, "The corpse this morning, the body is swollen, it is obvious that it has been soaked in water, the deceased is not missing parts, I don't think it was because of the loud voice that he was killed, and, you think, he is not young, he is just a watchman, this is not to offend anyone, there is no money on him, it is definitely not a murder to collect money, it is estimated that there is something else." ”

"I agree with Ranran's words, I never believe in any ghosts and gods in the world, I'm afraid, someone is behind the ghosts."

Gu Yuchen narrowed his eyes and continued, "I'm afraid, we have to visit Qingfeng County Order." ”

Feng Ran nodded.

Following.

When they arrived at the gate of Qingfeng Mansion, they saw two guards guarding them, and the drum of grievances was nowhere to be seen.

Gu Yuchen took the lead and walked over, but was stopped by two officers and soldiers, "What are you doing?!" What's the matter?! ”

"Bold! See the Eight Mansions Patrol! Don't let the prefectural order come out to greet it! ”

He Jun took out a gold medal at once, and the two officers and soldiers looked at it, their eyes widened, and they immediately ran in.

Wu Yin was squinting his eyes and pretending to sleep in the courtyard, and the warm sun was shining warmly on his body.

"My lord! My lord! ”

Wu Yin opened his eyes, saw the panicked appearance of his subordinates, and said with disgust, "What are you doing?!" In a panic, what a system! ”

"My lord! door, four people came to the door, and one person claimed to be the Eight Governors! ”

Wu Yin sat up all of a sudden, his eyes widened, "What did you say?!" Eight Governors! ”

"Yes, yes, my lord, I saw it, he has the emperor's golden waist card! Go out and have a look! ”

Wu Yin's face changed suddenly, and he quickly stood up and ran outside.

Wu Yin was far away, and he saw a few people with extraordinary temperament at the door, and he was suddenly shocked in his heart, could it be that the imperial court heard something?

"Great, sir! Hurry, hurry, please! ”

Wu Yin hurriedly saluted, Gu Yuchen glanced at the person with a mustache, and walked in with a swagger.

Looking at Wu Yin's slightly lame legs, Feng Ran retracted his gaze and walked into the mansion together.

Wu Yin poured the tea, poured a glass of water for Feng Ran, sat down on the side, and said flatteringly, "My lord, I don't know what you are doing in Qingfeng County?" ”

"The emperor has paid a private visit, and when he leaves, he will give the official the responsibility of patrolling the eight mansions, secretly visit the people, and thoroughly investigate the corrupt officials and corrupt officials!"

Wu Yin pretended to be surprised, "My lord, is it really? But in our Qingfeng County, everything is fine. ”

This county order, isn't it talking nonsense with your eyes open?

Gu Yuchen gave Feng Ran a comforting look and said, "Bold Wu Yin! In this Qingfeng County, there are dead people one after another, and you don't even know about it! What is the crime?! ”

Wu Yin's eyes widened, and he knelt down with a "poof", "No, don't!" My lord, the lower officials know the mistakes, the lower officials know the mistakes! ”

"That's enough, hurry up and tell these things well."

Wu Yin nodded, "My lord, since three months ago in Qingfeng County, there have been innocent deaths, it is strange to say, every month, only two people died, these people were found in the place of willow trees, or by the lake, which frightened the people, and among the people who died, there were all kinds of people, there were old people, children, and young adults. ”

"Isn't this premeditated murder? You are a county order, knowing that it is a murder, but you sit back and ignore it, and actually move this drum into the courtyard, what do you mean?! ”

Feng Ran was a little angry, the county magistrate was not a confused person, and the rumors outside were nothing but nothing, shocking the people.

Wu Yin looked innocent and said pitifully, "Don't you know, the lower officials sent someone to investigate, but they found nothing, but that night, two knives were stuck in my head!" The next day, Xia Guan almost fainted in fright, and on the city gate, a piece of paper was also pasted, on which was a "sound" word, and then was crossed, Xia Guan was really helpless, so he could only give some pensions to his family, send them away, and bury the dead peacefully. ”

"So many people saw it, and naturally it was spread from one to ten, and hundreds of people from hundreds to thousands of people thought that it was a killer who hated to make noise, for fear that they would be taken a small life, so we all began to be cautious."

"Nonsense!"

Gu Yuchen slapped the table, making Wu Yin tremble three times in fright.

"In that case, there should be more power to arrest the murderer! Wu Yin, these days, we will stay in Qingfeng County until we chase the murderer! And you, go and send me all the information of the deceased, don't you say that the murderer has great powers, then the official wants to see, this murderer, dare to stick two knives in the head of the official! ”

Gu Yuchen was obviously angry at Wu Yin's stupidity, since someone was pretending to be a ghost, then, let him catch that ghost and see who the sacredness was!

"What the lord said is that the lower official is stupid, and the lower official will let people prepare the wing, please wait for a while."

Gu Yuchen nodded, "Go ahead." ”

When Wu Yin walked out, Feng Ran couldn't sit still, stood up, and looked around the room, this room seems to be plain, but it has a quaint atmosphere, and I always feel that it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

When he walked to the bookshelf on the side, Feng Ran only felt a fragrance wafting in, Feng Ran shrugged his nose, smelled the bookshelf, the smell was not strong, and when he saw a woodcarved villain, he was surprised, "Agarwood?" ”

There are fewer and fewer agarwoods, could it be said that there are a lot of ancient agarwood? So that a county order that looks poor and the house is also poor also uses agarwood?

Feng Ran looked at it carefully, and sniffed it from time to time, half of the ten decorations on the bookshelf were made of agarwood.

Feng Ran suppressed the doubts in his heart, turned around, looked around, and saw that there was still a painting on the wall.

A woman who is not young, but looks very gentle, with affection in her eyes, as if she is looking at her lover.

Feng Ran became interested, walked over, looked at the painting, nodded, it was a good painting, but I don't know who the woman in this painting is and who she is looking at.

"My lord, the wing room has been prepared, and the information of the deceased will be sent to the adult later."

"Okay."

Gu Yuchen turned his head and saw Feng Ran staring at the painting on the wall.

"Ranran, what are you looking at?"

Feng Ran hooked the corners of her mouth, turned her head, and looked at Wu Yin instead, "The woman in this painting is very gentle, who is it?" ”

Wu Yin showed a smile with some tears in his eyes, "This is the wife of the lower official, a few months ago, she got sick and went." ”

Wu Yin's smile was a little bitter, Feng Ran sighed in his heart, he thought he was a person who was afraid of death, but he didn't expect that he was also a person who valued love and righteousness.

"Condolences."

When Wu Yin heard this, he laughed and waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, you don't have to suffer from illness anymore." ”

"Dare to ask, what disease is Madame suffering from?"

"Wind cold, long-term illness, gone."

Feng Ran looked at Wu Yin apologetically, Wu Yin wiped his tears, "That's it, my lord, please go to the wing room with the lower officials." ”

A few people walked out with Wu Yin, but Feng Ran couldn't help but look at Wu Yin tens of thousands more because of the woman in the painting, and walked to the backyard, Feng Ran found that there were many flowers planted in the yard, although it was floating because of the season, but it could still be seen at a glance that this was a big garden, perhaps, the woman in the painting liked flowers very much.

Walking in again, Feng Ran's eyes were attracted by a few bright flowers, which formed a sharp contrast with the almost withered flowers on the side, red, dark red, a striking color, just like roses, but this flower looked a little more strange than roses.

Obviously, several people noticed it, but Huazhi didn't hide what she was thinking, "Sister, look! Those flowers are so unique and beautiful! ”

Wu Yin, who was walking in front, turned his head and explained, "This flower is a strange flower brought back from the Western Regions by the lady before her death, all year round, it will not wither, and it will be strong when it is strong, as long as it does not damage the roots, wind and rain cannot defeat this flower." ”

Looking at this flower, Wu Yin seemed to remember something, and a faint smile spread on his face.

"Madame's eye is very good, this flower is very beautiful."

Feng Ran praised without hesitation, if she could, she still wanted to touch it, but Wu Yin actually said that it was a strange flower in the Western Regions, it must be the beloved thing of Mrs. before her death, and she still didn't want to move in the past, in case she didn't control it well, if this flower was broken, wouldn't it break Wu Yin's thoughts of seeing things and thinking about people.

Gu Yuchen looked at this blooming flower, squinted his eyes, the appearance of this flower is a little familiar, but I don't know where I have seen it.

A few people walked past the flower, bypassed a small lake, and walked into the wing, if anyone looked back at this moment, they would find that in the middle of the original strange flower, there were dripping red liquid......
