Chapter 47: The Death of a Prisoner

When Jiancheng spoke, Xie Ling had been standing behind him, looking at the situation was about the same, and he was going to come out at this time, thinking that maybe the shopkeeper would say something useful when he saw her.

The shopkeeper was indeed not unexpected, he had been silent with his head down since he came here, and he began to retreat back the moment he saw Xie Ling, constantly trying to break free from the hand that was holding him tightly, and finally his whole person was hidden behind Jiancheng, and his mouth kept saying some words that no one could understand.

"There's another person in there, you can ask him." As he spoke, he secretly glanced behind Jiancheng, "The spirit is okay." ”

"Well, go back and interrogate directly."

Gu Changqing's whole person looked pale and weak, and the day he and Xie Ling went to the Li Mansion to get injured looked better than now.

"Are you okay?" Xie Ling asked in a low voice, worried.

"It's fine."

Gu Changqing's heart was like a ball of cotton blocked, and his words were full of urns.

"Built up." Taking a breath of cold air, Gu Changqing continued, "You explain, repair in an hour, and go back today." ”

Outside, it was cold and dripping into ice, and a group of people were crowded in the inn silently eating a few drawers of buns they had just bought.

Gu Changqing lay alone in the corner, falling asleep from time to time, he was very tired, he returned to his childhood in his dreams, he was bullied everywhere, if he hadn't met the kind-hearted Yan family couple later, it is estimated that he would have been like those children, he would have been unable to live for a long time or was sold somewhere, doing things that could not see the light.

The scene in the dream was raining a lot at this time, like a continuous bead curtain covering the sky, he was sitting at the door of his house, Yan Mu took a meat bun for himself to eat, he reached out to take it, inadvertently touched his hand, a complete coolness came, he wanted to grab the hands, but at the moment of stretching out, Yan Mu's shadow began to gradually become more and more transparent, until it disappeared.

I also woke up in a dream, with a fine cold sweat on my head, and gasped for two breaths before I slowly recovered from that dream.

"My lord, what's wrong with you. It's okay. ”

A group of people had already rested and could hurry at any time, and Jiancheng came over to call him, only to find that he was already asleep, and his hands were clutching something in the air.

"I didn't call you when you fell asleep, it's all ready, when to go."

"What time is it?" Gu Changqing asked.

"It's almost time to leave, it's getting dark!" Jiancheng replied from the side.

"Let's go."

A group of people, coming in the dust, and going back in the dust, raised an unknown amount of dust along the way.

There was no tiredness on everyone's face, there was a determination to take down the bad guys.

They can be indifferent to the murderer, because it has long been commonplace to do this business, and the ugly face of human nature is a common thing for them, but for this kind of cruelty to children, many people can't bear it!

What children are is the hope of a country and a nation, if even they cannot be treated well, I don't know how to be able to do it for generations.

Hurry up and rush to the county office, it was already midnight, Xie Ling looked at the door, and said silently in his heart, Dabao, Liu E, we will definitely find the real murderer.

Justice will definitely be given to all the victims.

"Take the two of them to that little cell and guard them separately, with at least five people each, just in case."

Gu Changqing explained to Jiancheng, "Remember, the guards must always be sober. ”

Jiancheng nodded, and went down.

Gu Changqing didn't understand either, he had always had a feeling that the shopkeeper of this inn and the shopkeeper were just a substitute for the dead, and the real person behind it would never let him be so unscrupulous to investigate!

Although he hurried overnight to bring those two people back, and now they are locked in the county jail, which is heavily guarded, and it is unlikely that they will rob the prison, but there are thousands of ways to find someone to come in and kill these two people, and he can't take it lightly.

If you're not careful, you'll lose everything!

Gu Changqing was lying on the bed, tired for several days, he quickly fell asleep again, it was another dream, and it was a dream that he couldn't do anything.

He dreamed that Yanmu never woke up, he dreamed that Xie Ling was caught by evil ghosts, and he also dreamed that the shopkeeper of the two Qiuyue Inn and the shopkeeper died inexplicably, just like Li Hongsheng, and he couldn't find the slightest flaw.

Like everyone, the demons will gradually swell in the night.

His hands clutched the quilt tightly, cold sweat soaking his shirt.

He sat up sharply, and it took a long time for him to recover from the nightmare, and the coldness of his body was gradually replaced by the warmth of the light.

"Built, built."

After shouting for a long time, there was no answer, so he got out of bed and shouted twice harder, and a small official pushed the door in.

"My lord, what do you command?"

"Built?" Gu Changqing asked casually, "Why didn't he come." ”

"He's in the prison, and something happened last night in the prison." The official spoke slowly.

"What? What's wrong? What about the people who came back yesterday? But still alive. How don't you know to call me. Gu Changqing said eagerly.

"I don't know the specifics, I've been guarding you all along, but I've heard that someone died. They said you need to take care of your rest and didn't let it bother you. ”

Gu Changqing was confused when he heard the scolding, and he didn't pay attention to the fact that he was just wearing a middle coat, pushed open the door and ran in the direction of the prison.

The official shouted behind him for a long time, but as if he hadn't heard it, he just took a coat and ran with him.

This scene happened to be seen by Xie Ling, who rushed over, "What's going on, so in a hurry." ”

The official stammered, "My lord, my lord, I ran away without clothes." ”

Xie Ling tried his best to hold back a smile, "You really didn't wear it?" ”

The servant gave her an incredulous look and ran out.

chased to the door of the prison before catching up with Gu Changqing, who was already so cold that the breath he exhaled was cold.

Jiancheng stood aside, Gu Changqing's expression also eased a lot, and he was not as eager and dignified as he was just now.

The servant walked over and handed him a pair, "My lord, you will have to wait for us when you run in the future, in case you forget something?" ”

What the official said was serious, Gu Changqing wanted to refute but didn't know how to refute it, so he had to take back his own pair and put it on without saying a word with a cold face.

followed Jiancheng to the prison, and as soon as he walked to the door, the dim and gloomy feeling in the prison immediately pressed up. In winter, it's even colder.

Gu Changqing tilted his head, intending to get used to the darkness first. In fact, he is a person who is very afraid of the dark. When he was a child, after his parents left one after another, he spent every night with his eyes open.

In the huge courtyard, he was the only one shivering with the moonlight.

Now, he has grown up, but for staying in the dark for a long time, he still feels inexplicably depressed and has difficulty breathing.

He had never talked to anyone about this question, not even Yanmu, who didn't know that he had this kind of dark fear.

He stood in the doorway of the prison, dark in front of him, with only a little light coming in from behind.

He thinks about other things as much as he can, as long as his attention is no longer dark and fearful, he can maintain a calm appearance on the surface, and no one will notice!

For so many years, only three times, he forgot his fears in the dark!

The first time was also in the prison, Xie Ling played with the light faintly cast from the window, the second time was in the cellar of the Autumn Moon Inn, and the third time was in the corpse cave in the barren mountain.

It stands to reason that except for the first time, the other two times were unusually dark, but he didn't have the slightest fear!

He had thought carefully more than once about what would make him able to face these things calmly. However, after thinking about it, there was no result at all.

Such a question is more confusing than the investigation of the case!

"My lord, this is the dead." Walk into a cell. Jiancheng said, pointing to the man on the ground with a sword stuck in his body.

"His name is Shen Qing, he has been here for many years, and the case file records that he killed someone, but he has never been executed."

Gu Changqing wanted to ask something, but when the words came to his lips and took them back, he almost forgot that the officials here were all newcomers, and the longest people were only two or three years, and these short two or three years were far from the time when Shen Qing came.

"There was poison in the wound, not from a sword wound." Built to narrate the words of the work.

"What poison? Did you find out? He said this to the servant.

"I have examined the corpse of the old body for decades, and I have not seen a thousand or eight hundred people who have been poisoned, but this poison, the old body has really not seen it, and I ask the adults to forgive the stupidity of the old body."

"However, in those countries in the Western Regions, there are many people who can make drugs, and we have not been exposed to those poison sources, so it is difficult to know what kind of poison it is." He said

Gu Changqing was quite puzzled in his heart, "You mean, what he has is the poison of the Western Regions!" ”

He shook his head, he was just guessing.
