Chapter 687, the flower girl

"The medical examiner said that muscle tissue was also extracted from the blood, that is, his muscles and internal organs were all melted. His situation is like being sprinkled with bones in martial arts."

"There is no scientific explanation for this, so it can only be handed over to your special security bureau."

Bai Zhou thought for a while, and then asked, "Didn't someone see him walking with a woman?" What about the woman? Have you investigated?"

"I've done my research, and I've drawn a portrait based on the description of the shopkeeper." Li Qi handed over a painting, and Bai Zhou looked at it, it was a very ordinary woman, neither good-looking nor ugly.

Li Qi said: "We are also very puzzled, this woman has an ordinary appearance, she definitely didn't use her beauty to seduce Tang Youbing, the only possibility is ......."

Bai Zhou said: "She and Tang Youbing have known each other for a long time."

Li Qi nodded, "But we asked Tang Youbing's family and friends, but no one has seen this person."

Bai Zhou pondered for a moment and asked, "Isn't Tang Youbing from the countryside? Have you ever asked him about his hometown?"

Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "His father has passed away for many years, and there is only one widowed mother, who came to Darong City with him many years ago to enjoy happiness, and has not been back for decades. If this woman was an old friend of his hometown, his mother should have known her, but his mother said she had never seen her."

Bai Zhou turned his head sideways and said, "His mother probably lied."

Li Qi frowned and asked, "What do you mean......

"Have you ever heard the story of the flower girl?" Bai Zhou suddenly asked, Li Qi was a little confused, "I haven't heard of it, what kind of TV series is it?" Z.br>

Bai Zhou said: "During the Five Dynasties, there was a man named Xu Xuan who wrote a book called "Ji Shen Lu", in which he wrote the story of a flower seller."

"In the story, there was a man in Ezhou during the Five Dynasties who was originally a son of a peasant family, but later became an official, and wanted to marry the daughter of a wealthy family. In that era, you can't divorce your wife casually, and if you leave your wife without reason, the world will think that if you abandon your bad wife, your virtue will be at a loss, and the wealthy family will not marry your daughter. So he hired thieves and killed his wife by the river, not sparing even her maidservant. Then he came home crying and saying that his wife had been killed by thieves, and that there was a lot of chaos at that time, and that it was common for no one to suspect it."

"This person married the daughter of a wealthy family, and with the help of the power of his wife's mother's family, he soared to prosper."

"After many years, this man went to Guangling to be an official, and at night he stayed in a post house, and he was shocked to see a woman selling flowers, because this woman looked exactly like the maidservant who was killed many years ago."

"He asked the woman in horror if she was a human or a ghost, and the woman wept and said that their master and servant had been chased by thieves and had fallen into the river, and although they had been wounded, they had luckily not died, and had been rescued by good Samaritans, and had been left here."

"She married a merchant as his wife, but the merchant went out to trade and did not return for a few years, so she and her wife sold flowers here for a living."

"The man remembered the gentleness and thoughtfulness of the original wife, and remembered the contempt and oppression of the daughter of the wealthy family, and he missed the original partner very much, so he asked the maidservant to take him to his wife."

"The maidservant took him into a small alley, and pointed to a very simple thatched hut, and said that this was where she and her wife lived."

"This man followed the maidservant into the house, and when he saw that the yard was full of wild grass, his heart was very bitter, and he was full of guilt for his wife."

"The maidservant asked him to wait in the hall, and soon the original partner came out, and the two hugged their heads and cried, and the original partner confided in him for many years."

"This man saw that his wife didn't know the truth back then, so he thought about it, anyway, the daughter of the wealthy family didn't follow, so he told the original partner that he had married the daughter of the wealthy family, but the original partner could go back with him as a concubine, and he would still treat her as before."

"The original partner was very moved, agreed to his request, and asked the maid to buy wine and meat, and kept him for one night."

"When this man's servant saw that his master had not returned, he led the men to look for it, but who knew that he found only a corpse, and his master had become a white bone, and his flesh had been turned into blood."

"The servant inquired with the surrounding residents, and found out that there had been no one living here for a long time."

Li Qi was dumbfounded when he heard this, and it took a long time to come back to his senses: "You mean, when this Tang Youbing was in the countryside before, he had a wife?"

Bai Zhou nodded.

"But we investigated his marital status, and he was unmarried when he got married." Li Qi said, "Stories are just stories after all."

Bai Zhou said, "There is nothing new under the sun, you go to his hometown to investigate, and you will find something unexpected."

Although Li Qi still didn't believe it in his heart, he still nodded.

The two were about to walk out of the deserted house, but suddenly as if they had been hit by something, the surrounding scenery changed, and it seemed that they came to a small village, and there were two children in the village, who grew up together since childhood, and the two children did not guess.
