Chapter 339: Not a Demon Calamity
As if it was reincarnation, Li Houquan was always like a puppy who was appreciated, constantly pleasing his former mother, later boss, and then his daughter-in-law chosen by himself. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Sometimes inexplicable successes, sometimes inexplicable failures.
Hearing this, Wei Xiaoge already knew that the murderer was of course not Li Houquan, and it was impossible for such a temperament to kill people in his life.
The two who died, Deng Chenglu put a green hat on him, and Chang Yinniang was a secret man who was always with him.
Deng Chenglu's existence made Li Houquan very painful, and he was very uncomfortable being cuckolded, but not only did he not have the courage to beat Deng Chenglu, but he also did not dare to scold his daughter-in-law.
One day, Li Houquan saw Chang Yinniang scolding people on the street, and he felt very fond of it.
However, this somewhat attractive happily accepted his flattery and was never angry with him. Chang Yinniang is not angry with him, but she still scolds others on the street from time to time.
Unable to get the reward of "Anger and Impermanence" from Chang Yinniang, Li Houquan was very painful, as if he had been treated unfairly.
His pain didn't make him want to kill, because Li Houquan was just a cowardly man with a cowardly temperament and a penchant for pleasing people.
The murderer, a man who, like Wei Xiaoge, knew spiritualism, and didn't know whether it was a law cultivator or a monster, and he obtained Li Houquan's mind from this tavern.
As for Li Houquan himself, he had long forgotten that he had talked to this man, and if Wei Xiaoge hadn't used the Soul Pupil Technique on him, I am afraid he would not have remembered it for the rest of his life.
However, Wei Xiaoge couldn't get more information, Li Houquan's memory was extremely vague, he only knew that the murderer's hair was slightly curly, the color was yellowish, and there was a salty smell on his body, just like those fishermen who went to the sea to fish in defiance of the sea ban.
Wei Xiaoge has been gone for a long time, and Li Houquan finally came back to his senses.
He seemed to remember falling asleep and dreaming, and talking for a long time, but he couldn't remember who he was talking to.
After cleaning up, he closed the tavern, but he didn't want to go home. It doesn't make a difference whether he goes back or not, no matter what he does, whether it's the children or the mother-in-law at home, no one seems to be looking at him directly.
It was getting late, and Wei Xiaoge went directly to the inn where he lived.
There is nothing special about tonight's story, Li Houquan is not a "sick" person, many people want to kill people in their hearts, whether it is to kill themselves or others.
It's just that they'll never do it.
The mother may be "emotional" for a thousand reasons, her husband is not at home, and there are so many children. The former boss is very common for a young man under his hand to come and drink as soon as he is called. And that daughter-in-law may be the same, I don't know why I don't look down on Li Houquan.
The dead Chang Yinniang was a secret doorman, because she paid the money, so she never got angry with the "guests".
All the moodiness has nothing to do with you Li Houquan, that's all!
Since the murder of evil creatures in Ping'an Prefecture, there are very few people walking alone at night, and Wei Xiaoge soon found that someone was following him.
It's a little far away, it's two people.
She walked to a corner and hid into a dark alley, and then sneaked up to a wall next to her, only to see two men who looked like sergeants on night patrol, with a frightened look on their faces.
didn't follow Wei Xiaoge into the dark alley, the two just waited on the street in front of them, as if waiting for someone to come.
Wei Xiaoge suddenly realized that walking alone at night was very likely to be regarded as a "suspect".
Just as he was about to leave, he saw a young martial artist of twenty-seven or eighteen years old flying in the distance, with a tall posture and wearing an indigo arrow-sleeved robe, and rushed to the front of the two sergeants.
Wu Xiu asked with a solemn expression, "Are you two sending the message?"
The two sergeants clenched their fists on one knee, "General Izumi, there is a young woman who has been alone in the tavern of 'Yunlai' for a long time, and has just turned into the alley in front of her, and is nowhere to be seen. ”
General Quan frowned slightly, glanced around, as if listening for a while, and suddenly said loudly: "Gentleman on the wall, come out!"
The gentleman on the wall, generally referred to as a thief.
Wei Xiaoge, who was originally attached to the wall as a gecko, did not come closer, but ran up to the wall. After clasping her fists and saluting, she smiled and said, "My own people, General Quan, please speak here." ”
It was about the boldness of the artist, and the young general surnamed Quan stood proudly in front of Wei Xiaoge with a light tiptoe, "Dare to ask the girl who is who?"
"Coming from the capital, the king of Qijun sent it. ”
General Quan's slightly dark face showed a look of displeasure, "Why are you sneaky and hide your head and tail?"
Wei Xiaoge spread his hands and said with a little teasing: "How can I ever be sneaky, neither wearing black clothes nor covering my face. ”
General Izumi was stunned, as if it was indeed the case as the other party said.
At this time, there are all soldiers, but anyone with any suspicious deeds must be reported immediately, even if he is a general in the capital army, the highest army in Ping'an Prefecture, he has been patrolling day and night for a full month. And when it comes to the tavern, there will be different people watching it every day.
A faint smile appeared on his face that seemed a little resolute, and General Quan asked again: "Since you were sent by the county king, why didn't you go to the state capital yamen to report?" ”
Wei Xiaoge said with a smile: "If I go to the Yamen, how can I investigate the case?"
Is this a distrust of the yamen? General Quan was stunned again for a moment, but he quickly understood.
The one sent by the capital this time was a young woman, who was even more eye-catching than the handsome Murong Gongzi before. It will soon be known to everyone. Just like himself, whenever he appears on the streets of Taiping Prefecture, almost everyone knows him, but he can't hide his tracks.
"Is the girl a demon collector?" asked General Izumi in a very small voice.
The general's brain was very fast, and he immediately guessed, Wei Xiaoge nodded, "It's not convenient to talk here, but I have something I want to do with the general." ”
General Quan turned his head to the two sergeants who were waiting in the distance and said, "You two go out for inspection, and report back immediately if you have something." ”
didn't go back to the inn, but Wei Xiaoge followed General Quan, hiding his body all the way to the extremely dark corpse house...... If the corpse keeper is sent away, there will be no living person, and it is indeed a good place to talk.
The stench was indescribable, even with a piece of ginger in his mouth, Wei Xiaoge still covered his nose with a handkerchief and took a closer look at these strange corpses.
A dried corpse that is like a mummy, not afraid of decay, not only is there no blood, but there is no liquid in the body, what kind of method can be used to do this?
Although it is mentioned in the case file, it is far less than what you have seen with your own eyes.
Secretly looked at the bold young woman in front of him, his face was unmoved and looked extremely calm, General Quan had two feelings of admiration, that is, he himself was a little stunned when he first saw these corpses.
“...... Since the girl is a demon collector, dare to ask if this is done by a demon?"
You ask me, who do I ask? Bai Ze, this monster doesn't even eat meat, and the fox doesn't do anything except want to hook up with scholars, and that goose demon just wants to go back to the countryside and settle down, and he doesn't like the capital. Wei Xiaoge smiled: "It may not be a demon, it may also be a law cultivator." ”
If you have the practice of water control exercises, you should be able to drain all the liquids in the human body......
After leaving the mortuary and walking a hundred or so steps, Wei Xiaoge put down the handkerchief in his hand and took two deep breaths.
It stinks!
The general next to him was very calm.
After recovering for a while, Wei Xiaoge asked, "Dare to ask the general and the capital of Taiping Prefecture, Quanzhongyue, what do you call it?"
Izumi Zhongyue smiled, "Izumi is!"
"Ah, disrespectful, disrespectful! I don't want Quandujun to be so young and promising! Wei Xiaoge was surprised, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
Although she had inquired about the various forces in Taiping Prefecture before she came, of course the largest leader in the army, the Zhou Jundu Army, was on the list, but she didn't expect it to be such a young man, and she thought that the person in front of her was the son and nephew of the Quandu Army.
There were so many people who died that it was not entirely a matter of arresting the head, and even the army was involved.
Right now, I'm afraid Izumi Chuetsu is the leader!
"A month ago, the Beijing Criminal Department sent a general arrest of Wang, but so far the case has not been solved, and the chief arrester himself is unharmed, but three of the arresters who came together unfortunately died in their duties. As the head of an army, how can I stand by and watch. ”
Wei Xiaoge nodded.
"I originally wanted to contact Mr. Wang, but now I have to meet General Quan, you are the same, I got a little news, although the murderer does not know whether it is a demon or a law cultivator, this person is a man, about a head shorter than the general, the body is thin, the face is dark, the hair is yellow and slightly curly, and there is a salty smell of the sea on his body. ”
didn't ask Wei Xiaoge where he got the news, but Quan Zhongyue showed a trace of embarrassment, "Miss Wei has never been to the coast, and most of the fishermen here have this appearance, their bodies have a peculiar smell, and their complexion is dark due to sun exposure, and their hair will look slightly yellow or even curled." ”
Wei Xiaoge was dumbfounded, and then looked at Quan Zhongyue carefully, this person probably likes to walk outdoors, and because of the perennial sun exposure, he is really slightly darker than people elsewhere, and the hair on his temples is a little yellow.
After smiling bitterly twice, she said again: "Fortunately, I know that it is a man......"
That's right...... Izumi couldn't help but laugh and ruled out half of the suspicious people......
Looking at General Quan, who was smiling a little happily, Wei Xiaoge couldn't help but be embarrassed, but in addition, she also saw some clues.
"Can the general carefully read the case file? The deceased may not have been chosen at random, the perpetrator seems to have the meaning of doing the right thing for heaven, and the people killed can all be enemies in the minds of some people. ”
Izumi Zhongyue smiled bitterly twice.
He didn't know where he was, the dead people were peddlers and pawns, and there were also rich and nobles, although there were some people he didn't know whether he was "damned", but they included the magistrate of Taiping Prefecture.
This adult could have been classified as "damned......
"What do you mean?"
"I guess this is not a demon calamity, it should be a cultivator who knows how to control water, and most of the monsters don't pay attention to all kinds of grudges in the world. ”
For youkai, the human race is nothing more than cats and dogs, and it has nothing to do with them. Anyone who sees a dog fighting with a cat will definitely not go to heaven and kill the dog that bullied the cat.
After saying this, Wei Xiaoge suddenly found that this case had nothing to do with her, she was a demon envoy and not a human envoy.
"Fa Xiu ......," Izumi Zhongyue raised his eyebrows and muttered for a moment.
"Dare to ask the general, can there be a law to cultivate in the past few months?"
Quanzhong Yue's face showed incredulity, "No matter who the perpetrator is, but it is definitely not the Dao Master from Baoliang Country!"
