Chapter 359: Stepping Stone (5)
"My lord! Why do you say that Lu is the murderer? Is there any evidence? Someone in the crowd shouted.
"Proof, of course!" , Nie Xiaohu smiled slightly.
"First of all, the iron door of the secret room is open, and the iron lock on the door is placed on the wooden shelf next to the iron door, if it is the door opened by Mr. Shao himself, then three days have passed, and the lock should be covered with dust, but although there is dust on the iron cable, most of the place has been wiped by someone, obviously, someone will open the lock, so who will be the person who unlocks the lock?"
Nie Xiaohu sneered and glanced at the Lu clan, who was already trembling.
"Secondly, there is dust all over the room, on the floor and on the table, but strangely, the oil lamp on the table is as bright as new, there is not a trace of dust on the lamp, and there is no lamp oil in it, why is that?"
Everyone in the front row of the crowd shook their heads in unison.
"Let's imagine how Mr. Shao will keep warm after he is trapped in the secret room, due to the cold inside? The only way he could keep warm was this oil lamp! As for the books in the room, they are the treasures of Mr. Shao's life, and he will never burn them.
Because the oil lamp was warmed by Mr. Shao in his arms, it was as bright as new, but after the lamp oil was exhausted, Mr. Shao was like an oil lamp, and the lamp dried up. ”
Speaking of this, Nie Xiaohu couldn't help but sigh slightly, and the onlookers also let out a soft sigh.
After a pause, Nie Xiaohu's index finger and middle finger of his right hand quickly clicked on his thigh a few times, and continued: "Of course, the most direct evidence is written down by Mr. Shao himself!" On the wall of the secret room, there is a painting hanging, and before he died, Mr. Shao wrote two lines of poetry on the painting, which read: 'What is the use of life? If you get ahead, why die? ’。
At first glance, these two poems seem to be lamenting his life, reading thousands of books and being full of wealth, but in the end he is useless, so he sighs what is the use of life, and sighs that if he can get ahead, then what is the point of death, but this is only its superficial meaning.
These two lines of poetry are actually riddle poems, the first line 'Nothing is good, what is the use of life?' The second sentence is 'to get ahead, so why not die?' The head of the word "death" is the word "one", which is connected to the word "cow one", what is the meaning of the word "cow one"? ”
Nie Xiaohu smiled, and then said: "I saw that on the bookshelf in the secret room, there was a small wooden sign hanging on each grid, and the wooden sign named each grid in the name of the heavenly stem, that is, 'grid A, B, C, DING, and so on, so I thought, since there is a heavenly stem, then there must be an earthly branch!'"
The ox ranks second in the earthly branch, that is, the ugly cow, so the second of the ugly cow corresponding to the heavenly stem should be B, that is to say, "Niu Yi" has become "B one", obviously, Mr. Shao is saying that there is a mystery hidden in the first book of Yige! Come! ”
"Total headcatcher!"
"Go to the underground secret room and fetch me the first book of the B-word grid!"
"Yes!"
After a while, the book was handed over to Nie Xiaohu, who opened the book, took out a piece of paper sandwiched between the pages of the book, and read the words on the paper aloud.
"The one who harmed me, the poisonous woman Lu Chunhua is also! Shao Zhuoran is a masterpiece! ”
"Wow!" With a bang, the crowd suddenly became agitated, and then looked at Lu Chunhua, who was already sitting on the ground at this time and fainted.
"Wake it up with cold water!"
"Oh yes!" , Shi Yuning agreed, and went into the house to get water.
"Brother Tiger!" At this moment, Cao Xiaohui walked in from outside.
"Xiaohui, how is it, are you done?" , Nie Xiaohu asked with a smile.
"Hmm!" , Cao Xiaohui nodded.
After listening to what happened, Cao Xiaohui frowned, looked at Lu Chunhua, who had been woken up, and shook her head helplessly.
"Why are you doing that?" , Cao Xiaohui asked.
Lu Chunhua didn't answer, but twisted her wet head to the side.
"Forget it, go back and try it again, I'm not afraid that she won't say it", Nie Xiaohu waved his hand.
"What's going on with you?"
"Oh, it's a bit related to this side too," Cao Xiaohui nodded.
"Oh? What's the connection? Nie Xiaohu frowned slightly.
"That Su Hongyu is from Sujia Village, sixteen years old this year, her body is relatively thin, her anemia is more serious, and she often faints due to anemia.
Just yesterday evening, she went to collect firewood in the woods by the river, and on the way home she suddenly fainted, and when she woke up, she found herself lying in bed, and ......"
"And what?" , Nie Xiaohu asked.
"And there was a man in the house, and the man wanted to do something wrong to her, and she didn't comply, so the man used force on her, and in the struggle she touched a flask, and smashed it with the flask, and when she fled, she suddenly felt that the flask in her hand was very heavy, and then she found that the flask was silver, so she ran away with the flask."
"So that's the case", Nie Xiaohu nodded with a smile, "Who is that man?" Can Su Hongyu know? ”
"Yes, his name is Shao Shusen, and he is Shao Zhuoran's nephew, so I said that it has something to do with this side", Cao Xiaohui nodded and said.
"Shao Shusen?" , Nie Xiaohu was stunned, "This is really a coincidence!" ”
"What? Again, who is that man? At this time, Lu Chunhua suddenly asked, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Shao Shusen! The person who wants to do something indecent to the little girl is called Shao Shusen, who is Shao Zhuoran's nephew! Cao Xiaohui said loudly.
"Shao Shusen! You bad guy! Thin lovers! Your conscience has been fed to the wolves! Lu Chunhua suddenly let out a heart-rending scream.
Nie Xiaohu listened, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"My lord! I say! I'll say it all! Lu Chunhua gritted her teeth and said, "Shao Shusen taught me to do all this, and he is the real mastermind behind the scenes!" ”
"Do you know where the others are? I sent someone to his residence, but they weren't there," Cao Xiaohui asked.
"I don't know either," Lu Chunhua shook her head.
"He just told me that he had a big deal to do in the past few days, and he could make a lot of money when he finished it, and then he would take me away and fly away, but now it seems that it is all a lie! I was cheated by her! Lu Chunhua cried again, but there was no sadness in the cry, only remorse and chagrin.
"Forget it, Shao Shusen can go to find it slowly, as long as he is still in Luoyang City, he can't run away from him!"
Nie Xiaohu stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go!" We should also go back, tomorrow morning to go to Luonan Street Xie Ji Yinzhuang, let's go to visit this Xie Da Yuan! ”
"Good!" , Cao Xiaohui nodded and said, "This Xie Ji Yinzhuang is one of the largest households in Luoyang City, and I have never been there!" ”
