Chapter 19: Clues

"But what?" Gu Qingzhuo couldn't help but ask.

"Six years ago, there was an honest Huang Da Niu who left the village at the age of 25, the same age as the villagers who died. At that time, Huang Da Niu and one of them, Huang Dashan, were very good and wore a pair of pants since he was a child. However, Huang Daniu's family died early, leaving him alone, so he left the village and went outside to earn a living. ”

"However, when he left, a widow in the village also happened to die, everyone said that Huang Da Niu killed him, and he also reported to the government, but he left here and didn't know where he went, and the government never found him." Muramasa said.

"So, it's possible that Huang Da Niu came back, killed these village scoundrels, and then fled from here?" Gu Qingzhuo said.

"It's possible." Luo Yao said.

"So, as long as we find Huang Daniu, we can solve this case." Xiao Yuluo said with a smile.

"Not necessarily." Meng Xing shook his head.

"Why?" Xiao Yuluo asked in amazement.

"Huang Da Niu may die, or he may have gone away, and it must be difficult to find him." Meng Xing said.

"So, as long as the murderer is not caught, this case will not be solved."

"Brother Meng, do you have a plan?" Li Zhukuai asked. As a person in the government, he naturally hopes to solve the case as soon as possible.

"Nope." Meng Xing shook his head.

There was a moment of silence.

Meng Xing said: "You guys think about it here, I'll walk around and see if there's anything I find." ”

"I'll go with you." Xiao Yuluo said.

Gu Qingzhuo saw Xiao Yuluo following Meng Xing, his face was a little ugly, but he couldn't say anything.

Xiao Yuluo was so kind to this Meng Xing, and he was always worried about his safety, which made Gu Qingzhuo a little surprised.

I have known Xiao Yuluo for so long, and I have never seen her care for her like this, every time I see him, I treat him like an ordinary senior brother.

Meng Xing walked in front and looked at every place carefully. However, the houses here are all sparse, each house is almost more than ten zhang away, rarely next to each other, and the houses are mottled and dilapidated, and many are thatched houses, which shows the hardships of the villagers' lives.

Ten days have passed since the murder, and how easy it is to find clues? Unless it is an exhumation examination, but for people in this era, the most taboo is to dig up people's graves, so that the dead cannot live in peace.

Moreover, Meng Xing is not a criminal investigator, and he is not familiar with many methods to solve cases, so he can only try with some of the methods he saw on TV in his previous life.

In his mind, he had seen some of the methods he had seen in his previous life to solve the case, and he was speculating and pondering in combination with the current situation, while walking in the village.

Unconsciously, in front of a farmland, I saw that the growth of the seedlings was excellent, green and green, and the height of the seedlings seemed to have just been sown.

Meng Xing looked around, but found nothing.

Suddenly, three options appeared in front of him.

[1. Return to the original place and find nothing. 】

[2. Take someone to break into the cave in front of you. 】

[3. Break into the cave alone. 】

"No result prompts? Is it safe inside? However, this system can also trick people, sometimes it does not show results, but it puts people in danger, and the trouble needs to be solved by themselves. Meng Xing thought to himself.

After suffering a few losses in the system, Meng Xing was also a little cautious.

"Also, where is the cave? How did I not find out? Meng Xing looked around, there was a rice field in front of him, and there was only a road on the left that led to the other side of the mountain.

Walking three zhang to the left, I saw a cave blocked by a huge rock on the side of the mountain, which almost blocked the entire cave, and I thought it was the cave that the system said. According to the prompts of the system, it is obviously dangerous, and you should be cautious when entering.

This place is relatively remote, so there should be fewer people coming here. Moreover, the boulder blocked the cave, and ordinary people couldn't move it at all, unless a dozen people worked together, it was possible to move the boulder away.

Of course, with the strength of his eight-rank condensation realm master, he could easily move away.

Meng Xing thought about it, chose the first item, turned around and left.

[The quest has been completed, and you will get a random reward: Strength +1]

This system is good, and in special cases, it can even warn of some dangers.

"Meng Xing, you just looked at that cave, did you find anything?" Xiao Yuluo asked.

"Didn't find it. However, it is strange that the cave is blocked by a boulder. Let's ask Muramasa what's going on. Meng Xing said.

"Actually, I don't need to ask him, with my strength, I should be able to move that boulder away." Xiao Yu fell.

"The two of us go into the cave, maybe there is a huge danger, so let's ask Muramasa first, and then call the others here." Meng Xing said.

"Okay." Xiao Yuluo didn't have a clue about these things, so he could only listen to Meng Xing.

Although she is the protector of the outer disciples, the duty of this protector is only to accompany the outer disciples down the mountain to practice, or to guide the cultivation of the outer disciples, and there are very few cases to investigate this kind of case.

However, she didn't expect Meng Xing to know so much, and when it came to this case, she was very careful, and she was able to find some abnormal situations.

A wood-chopping disciple actually knows so much, Xiao Yuluo really can't think of the reason.

"Meng Xing, when did you come to the True Martial Sect Sword Pond Peak?" Xiao Yuluo asked.

"Three years ago, when I was fifteen."

"Where is your home?"

Meng Xing's memory of the original owner came to his mind, and he said: "Qiongzhou, a small town, my father was the landlord of the town, and he died early, so he entrusted the family to bring me to the True Martial Sect. ”

"Senior sister, you are asking me so much, do you want to check my account? Let's see if I'm a fugitive from Great Qin? Meng Xing said again.

Xiao Yuluo smiled and said, "Our True Martial Sect already has a lot of fugitives, and the elders or peak masters in the sect will bring them back to the sect and cultivate them as disciples when they see those who have martial arts cultivation qualifications. ”

Meng Xing nodded, this is true, every year in the sect, someone from the sect will go down the mountain to select disciples, as long as they have cultivation qualifications, they will be cultivated well, but if they have bad qualifications, they will also be driven out of the sect.

The Martial Arts Sect, just like the companies and enterprises in the previous life, will also carry out the rules of the game of survival of the fittest, although it is very cruel, but it is very realistic.

Otherwise, these martial arts cultivation sects would not be able to exist for so long, and they would soon be eliminated by other forces.

Before coming to the village, Gu Qingzhuo glanced at Meng Xing and said a little sourly: "Senior Brother Meng, you have been gone for so long, you should have found traces of the case, right?" I see that you seem to be quite sure about solving the case, and the analysis is all the way, don't let us down! ”

Meng Xing nodded and said, "It's a discovery." However, you still need to ask Muramasa. ”

"Uncle, what is the cave blocked with boulders at the back of the village for?" Meng Xing turned to Muramasa and asked.

"The cave is a natural formation and is said to have existed for hundreds of years, and almost no one visits it in normal times. But ......," Muramasa pondered.

"Uncle, what do you think?" Meng Xing asked a little hurriedly.

"But five years ago, a boulder rolled down the hill and rolled to the mouth of the cave and blocked it. At that time, the villagers thought it was an earthquake and were very frightened. Muramasa said.

"Five years ago, that is, a year after Huang Da Niu left and the widow in the village died?" Meng Xing said.

Murazheng's face suddenly changed greatly, and his voice trembled, and he said: "I remember that the day the boulder rolled down was exactly June 12, and when Huang Daniu left and died with the widow in the village, it was also June 12, exactly one year apart. ”
