The prefect nodded, and then asked, "Has Master Yuanji ever had a grudge against anyone?" What's so unusual about these days? ”

Abbot Yuankong shook his head and sighed: "Senior Brother Yuanji has always been merciful, and it is impossible to make enemies with others, these days have been as usual, and the poor monk doesn't know who is so vicious to Senior Brother Yuanji." ”

"I also ask Master Yuankong to summon all the people in the temple over." The prefect frowned and said, "This matter is very important, and this official will definitely find out." ”

The abbot of Yuankong bowed slightly.

Looking at the prefect in front of him from afar, Su Wanqiu showed a thoughtful expression on her face and said, "How did the prefect know in advance that Master Yuanji would die here?" ”

Su Jin raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised: "You know in advance?" ”

"The prefect doesn't even know where Master Yuanji died, but he knows that Master Yuanji has been killed, so I guess someone passed the news to the prefect in advance." Speaking of this, Su Wanqiu glanced at Mingyi, and then analyzed, "The reason why he blocked Jining Temple was just because he thought that the murderer had just finished his murder and had no time to leave, but in fact, Master Yuanji was killed when he was in Yin, isn't it strange?" ”

Mingyi's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't say a word.

"Who are you?" When a servant saw Su Wanqiu and the three of them standing still, he stepped forward and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"In Xia Su Jin, today I came to Jining Temple with my sister to offer incense and pray for blessings." Su Jin said lightly.

The official was taken aback: "Su Jin, the eldest son of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion? ”

He turned to look at the girl with a beautiful and delicate face beside Su Jin, thinking that this should be Su Wanqiu, the third lady of the Hou Mansion.

He rolled his eyes, and said: "My subordinates are ordered by the prefect to investigate the suspicious places in Jining Temple, and ask Master Su for forgiveness if they disturb them." ”

"It doesn't matter." Su Jin said.

The official turned around and walked away quickly, walked to the prefect's side and whispered a few words, only to see the prefect's face change slightly, and he raised his head to look in the direction of Su Jin.

Su Wanqiu suddenly remembered Li Qingru's words before, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, but if she left now, it would inevitably make others think that she was weak-hearted.

Just as he was thinking about it, the prefect had already walked over with the officials.

"This is Su Jin, the eldest prince of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion?" The prefect raised his eyebrows and asked, "I wonder why Su Gongzi came here today?" ”

Su Jin was stunned at first, and then smiled lightly: "Today I just came to offer incense with my sister, didn't the official tell the adult just now?" ”

"Master Su, this case involves a wide range of issues, and I ask Master Su to assist in the investigation." The prefect said in a deep voice, "I wonder if Master Su knows this deceased?" ”

Su Jinjian's eyebrows furrowed: "I don't know." ”

"This deceased is the cousin of Zhu Fuzi of Chengde Academy, Su Gongzi is a student of Zhu Fuzi, and he happened to appear here today, although the official believes in Su Gongzi's personality, but he also asked Su Gongzi to explain a thing or two." The prefect stared at Su Jin's face and took in Su Jin's expression.

"Lord Prefect." A soft and gentle voice sounded, like a weeping poplar, brushing his heart, "This backyard is full of people who come and go in the temple on weekdays, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter, I don't know if the prefect has investigated who entered the backyard today?" ”

When the prefect heard the prestige, he saw Su Wanqiu's smile on his face, he was slightly stunned, and then thought for a moment, what Su Wanqiu said was true, so he immediately turned his head and ordered the guards beside him: "Did you hear that?" Let's investigate first, who are the people who entered the backyard today, and if it is an outsider, you should pay extra attention. ”

"Yes, sir." The guard nodded in response.

Seeing the guards leaving, Su Wanqiu looked at the well again, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly walked forward, Su Jin was stunned, and was about to follow, but was stopped by Mingyi raising his hand.

"Wait, she should have found something." Mingyi's gaze fell on Su Wanqiu's back, and a shallow and inexplicable look appeared in his gaze.

Su Wanqiu walked to Master Yuanji's side, half-bent down, the smell of blood suddenly hit her face, she frowned, and then stretched out her hand to point to the wound on Master Yuanji's head, and said, "Please also come and check here." ”

He suddenly turned his head to look at the prefect, with an inquiring meaning in his eyes.

The prefect nodded.

Su Wanqiu pointed to the wound and asked, "Look here, is there a problem?" ”

After a careful examination, the color of the ground suddenly changed, and he actually reached out and tore the wound on Master Yuanji's head.

The extremely thick and bloody aura spread, coupled with the hideous and terrifying wound, which made the scalp tingle, Su Wanqiu's face turned pale in an instant, Mingyi took the lead in stepping forward to support Su Wanqiu, and asked in a low voice, "What did you find?" ”

Su Wanqiu didn't speak, only endured the nausea in her heart, and pointed to the wound on Master Yuanji's scalp.

A bloody human skin was torn off.

This scene was so shocking that everyone present was stunned for the first time.

Under the human skin is another face completely different from Master Yuanji, with an ordinary appearance, and I don't know who it is.

Suddenly, a woman's exclamation was heard around, and a woman in her forties suddenly pounced on her, crying loudly, and constantly calling out something, but because she was too sad, her tone was not like a human voice, and it was difficult to distinguish.

Su Wanqiu froze, turned her head to look at Qi Zuo, and asked, "Lord Qi Zuo, I don't know if you can tell if this human skin is real, or is it just used for fake and real?" ”

He shook his head with a sneer: "This human skin is too real, it seems to be real, but I always feel that something is wrong, so I can't be sure if it's real." ”

The prefect sent for the woman to pull her away, but she struggled to come forward, thinking that the dead man must be her dearest.

"No wonder he still has a wound in his heart." Su Wanqiu's face was as calm as water, and she said, "It turns out that the wound on the head is just a disguise, just to cover up this human skin mask." ”

"What do you think of again?" Mingyi couldn't help asking.

Su Wanqiu looked at Ming Yi, her eyes sank a little cold, and she said lightly, "This should be asked to Li Gongzi, you were so surprised that he died in Yin just now, didn't you see Master Yuanji before?" ”

The atmosphere froze slightly.

Mingyi suddenly laughed and said, "Yes, I did see him, and I also told the prefect that there was a murder here and asked him to come over." ”

"It's a pity that you don't know that the person who died is not Master Yuanji, this Master Yuanji left under your nose." Su Wanqiu sighed slightly.
