Chapter 17: Inquiring about the individual
"Mr. Ge, what's the catch?"
In the alley, Yun Zhongzi squatted beside the corpse, and it had been a full stick of incense.
The whole alley, the walls were full of splashes of red blood.
The breath of the dead still lingers here, which makes people feel creepy.
Yun Zhongzi didn't say a word, his eyes were just staring at the skinned face, not knowing what he was thinking.
He seemed to be here, and it was as if he was just a shell here.
Divine thoughts, long since flown far away!
Feng Xinglie saw that his old monk was in a state of flux, and after waiting for a long time, he finally couldn't hold his breath and opened his mouth to break the silence.
"How? Will it work? He was anxious to know the outcome.
However, when Yun Zhongzi heard this, he just silently covered the white cloth on the corpse, and then stretched out his hand at Qing Xuanyi and said, "Boy, help me as a teacher!" β
"Huh?" Qing Xuan was pondering to himself at the moment, and when he heard the master calling him, he didn't react for a while, just looked at him stupidly.
"Ahhhh My legs are numb! Help me up! Yun Zhongzi glanced at his apprentice.
"Oh, oh!" Qing Xuan reacted at this time, and hurriedly stepped forward to help. But I couldn't help but feel funny in my heart, and secretly thought: "It turns out that the master will also have numb legs!" β
"What are you laughing at?" He got up, saw the apprentice laughing inexplicably, couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied, and said, "What kind of occasion is this?" Are you actually laughing? β
"No, Master, I didn't laugh." Qing Xuan saw that his old man's tone was wrong, so he hurriedly put away his smile, cleared his throat, and said, "Where are we going now?" β
"Be serious!" Yun Zhongzi reproached, then turned his head to Feng Xinglie and said, "General Feng, I wonder if you can give me a piece of paper and a pen in the next place?" β
"Does Mr. Ge already have the answer in his heart?" Feng Xinglie was pleasantly surprised.
"Well, let's find a room to talk about!" Ge Chuan looked around and said very cautiously.
Seeing this, Feng Xinglie didn't dare to slack off, immediately nodded, and led them into a house.
Qing Xuan saw that the master was so mysterious, and he also felt curious, not knowing what medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he followed inch by inch, for fear of missing any key steps.
However, he may be doomed to disappointment, because Yun Zhongzi only writes and draws on paper after entering the house, and does not show the slightest unusualness.
Qing Xuan and Feng Xinglie accompanied him left and right, and soon saw a portrait on the paper, the face was a little long, with bull's eyes and a hanging nose, and the two eyebrows were slender and long, but they looked very distinctive.
Especially the big mole on his chin, on which two hairs were drawn. Before Yun Zhongzi finished painting, Feng Xinglie couldn't help but scream!
"It's the money shopkeeper! The money shopkeeper of Dayuxing rice bank! Feng Xinglie was very excited.
"Really? My master hasn't finished painting yet! Qing Xuan was suspicious, and felt that Feng Xinglie was not very stable.
"Can't be wrong! Da Yuxing is the biggest rice shop in our Ming Dynasty, and their money shopkeeper is also a character, I can't admit it! Feng Xinglie said firmly.
"Then why is the money shopkeeper in the alley? And it's so undignified......" Qing Xuan thought back to the appearance of the corpse at this time, and felt even more incredible.
"The assailant deliberately tried to hide his identity in this way!" Yun Zhongzi finally stopped writing at this time and said.
"Mr. Ge, did the money shopkeeper say who killed him?" Feng Xinglie put all his expectations on Yun Zhongzi at this time.
"He was killed last night, and judging by the situation at the scene, it looks more like a sudden attack!" Yun Zhongzi said, hugged his fists at Feng Xinglie, and said: "Ge is only a shallow learner, I'm afraid I can only help here, and I hope the general will forgive his sins." β
"No more clues?" Feng Xinglie was obviously a little disappointed.
"Looking at the movements of the person who drew the sword, he should be a first-class master. Behind this, I'm afraid it's not that simple. The general wants to track down, but be careful! Yun Zhongzi said, no longer staying, and wanted to leave with a fist.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Feng Xinglie suddenly stopped him.
"Mr. walk slowly, there is something unclear below, and I want to ask Mr. He said politely.
"What does the general want to ask?" Yun Zhongzi stopped and looked back at him.
"Today in the shop, I saw a girl who looked very much like one of my old friends. And age...... It's probably possible to match one or two. So I hereby ask my husband about this woman's background. "Feng Xinglie has been in Jinyiwei for so many years, but he didn't do it for nothing, and he has his own set of people.
Yun Zhongzi was a little surprised when he saw him ask this questionβhe had thought that Feng Xinglie hadn't noticed Ling Yu so quickly. Even if you notice, it's unlikely that you'll recognize it at a glance.
"That's my apprentice. He has been by my side since I was a child. Yun Zhongzi only said.
"Since childhood......" Feng Xinglie muttered, and then asked, "What about her parents?" Who is it? Where do you live? Who else is in the family? β
He asked urgently, even a little out of his mind.
"She's an orphan." Yun Zhongzi didn't intend to tell him the truth, after all, the one standing in front of him was a human or a ghost, and it was not certain.
"Orphans?!" When Feng Xinglie heard this, he was stunned, and he didn't dare to ask the words thoroughly, after all, this question may also involve a public case ten years ago!
"So...... She has no parents...... "He felt very close to the truth.
"Yes," Yun Zhongzi nodded, but then said: "Actually, people are similar, the general's deceased must be a golden and noble person, how can it have anything to do with a little girl like Ling Yu?" The general is afraid that he is thinking too much. β
Yun Zhongzi said, hugged his fist again, and then stopped staying and walked out directly......
Qing Xuan listened to the clouds and mountains on the side, and he couldn't react at all, only to see that the master and everyone were out of the door, so he followed out with a stomach full of questions......
