Chapter 104: Above the Lobby

Yu Ren then began his narrative.

"I was supposed to pass through Phoenix Mountain that day and go to Jiahuimen. Although I have just come to Hangzhou, I have heard from a friend that there is a road to Jiahuimen on Phoenix Mountain. Grown, right? ”

Governor Liao nodded slightly. "Yes, there is indeed a trail on Phoenix Mountain, which leads directly to the east of Jiacheng, but this trail is not easy to walk."

"I went out too early that day, and when I arrived at Phoenix Mountain, the sky was still hazy. I followed the direction my friend told me, but I couldn't find the entrance. So I searched in the mountains. I thought, isn't Phoenix Mountain so big! Even if I can't find a way, I can find the east of the city by myself!

However, for some reason, I walked for an hour or two, but I still didn't get out of Phoenix Mountain. And what's even stranger is that after walking for so long, I suddenly found that I was back to square one.

At that time, I was shocked and remembered something that people often say......"

"Ghost jumping over the wall!" The people watching the excitement outside the door were very cooperative, and when they heard this, some people rushed to shout.

"That's right! It's a ghost jumping over a wall. Yu Ren said. At that time, I panicked, so I hurried back. However, the more panicked you are, the more likely it is that something will happen.

As a result, I didn't get out, but I ended up in a place I had never been before.

As for what it was, I don't know. I remember that I was looking for a way when I suddenly saw a large courtyard with blue bricks and tiles in the woods in front of me. At that time, my heart was full of joy, I had been groping for so long, and I had never found the way, and there was finally hope for this time.

As long as I can find someone to ask, I believe it will be easy to get out of this mountainous area.

At the time, I thought that inside such a mountain, there were either temples or Taoist temples. However, when you look closer, it doesn't look like it. The yard was huge, but I couldn't tell who it was.

Originally, I was going to ask someone for directions and go. But when I got to the main gate of the courtyard, I was taken aback. ”

Speaking of this, Yu Ren stopped. He was observing, observing the expression of this Liao prefect, but the adult sitting in the hall was expressionless, and he really couldn't guess his thoughts. But the crowd outside the door was in a hurry.

"What's wrong? What do you see? "These are almost all locals, and they are certainly no strangers to Phoenix Mountain. Originally, it was a frequent visit. However, in the past two years, it has been rumored that it is often haunted, and it is said that some people have mysteriously disappeared in this mountainous area.

Since then, few people have dared to go there. Since then, Phoenix Mountain has added another layer of mystery in the minds of most people in Hangzhou. Now that they heard that Yu Ren had encountered a ghost jumping over the wall there, they were even more sure that there were indeed ghosts in that mountainous area.

Now I heard Yu Ren say that he saw a big courtyard in that mountainous area, and most of them, the locals, knew that there were no big temples and Taoist temples on Phoenix Mountain, let alone any people's homes. This aroused everyone's curiosity.

Yu Ren looked outside the door and sighed secretly in his heart. It seems that this time he flickered, he could only fool these ignorant people outside the door, and if he wanted to hide from the Liao prefect in the hall, he was afraid that it was unlikely. But even so, he will never tell the affairs of the Li family, nor will he admit that he has anything to do with the Li family. Because he knew that as soon as he confessed, he would die.

It seems that no matter how many people believe it, they can only continue to fool around now.

"When I got to the front door of the yard, I was taken aback. I saw that the gate of the courtyard had fallen down, and that the walls of the courtyard on both sides had collapsed in large parts, and that there were many houses in the courtyard. But they are all basically collapsed and collapsed, and none of them are intact.

What surprised me even more was that I saw many broken swords in the courtyard, and there were still many blood stains on the ground.

I was stunned by what I saw, I didn't know what was going on, it looked like it had just been ransacked by robbers. At the time, I wondered if the family was all dead or all gone. Anyway, I didn't find a single living person in the courtyard, and I didn't see a body.

At this time, I heard footsteps coming from outside.

I was worried that the strongmen were coming back, so I quickly turned around and ran away. ”

The crowd outside the yamen had already started talking at this time. It was said: I don't know what kind of strong man did this. It is also said: I don't know who lives in that courtyard. He also said, "Maybe the courtyard wasn't inhabited by people in the first place."

Governor Liao remained silent. Seeing that Yu Ren stopped talking, he just asked lightly. "And then?"

"Then I ran down the hill. Unexpectedly, in such a panic, he actually ran out. So, I went back. Out of fear, I didn't report it to the authorities. ”

Governor Liao suddenly leaned forward, stared at Yu Ren under the hall and asked, "Do you know who lives in that courtyard?" ”

Yu Ren pretended to be dazed and shook his head.

"It's a robber's den. According to the tip I got recently. The courtyard you see on Phoenix Mountain was originally inhabited by a group of pirates. They plundered merchants' property, raided houses, killed people and set fires, and did almost everything they could. The imperial court has sent troops to encircle and suppress them many times, but every time they have been allowed to slip away, they have never been able to find their lair, and I didn't expect them to live in our Hangzhou city.

Seven days ago, the government received news that it was about to gather troops and send Yuan Tongju and Ma Zhutou to the mountain to encircle and suppress, but suddenly received news that the group of pirates had a nest fight due to uneven dirt. As a result, when the government personally brought people to arrive, there was only a broken wall left. ”

Liao Zhifu observed Yu Ren's expression while speaking.

When the people outside the door heard the prefect's words, they couldn't help but be shocked. And Yu Ren's expression was no different from everyone else.

Although there was no flaw in his expression, Liao Zhifu did not give up. He beckoned to the side. Immediately, out of the column of trappers standing on the left, a man with a small head and a roll-of-the-eye rolled. This person respectfully walked to Liao Zhifu's side, Liao Zhifu leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear, and the man returned to the queue.

"Yu Xianggong, tell me how you got to know this group of pirates!" Governor Liao suddenly changed his head, and directly confirmed the connection between Yu Ren and this group of pirates.

Fortunately, Yu Ren reacted quickly and was not surrounded by Liao Zhifu. He stood up and argued loudly, "My lord, the villain really hasn't seen those pirates, and he doesn't know who they are. ”

Governor Liao sneered again, "I don't know!" Why go there if I don't know you? I don't know why you've been in that yard for so long. It makes sense that if you don't have anything to do with this group of pirates, you'll leave as soon as you see it. But you stayed there for half an hour. How can this be explained? ”

Yu Ren was shocked again, because he already had a premonition that something was wrong.

"My lord, I am wronged! When the villain saw that scene, he was simply stunned. The villain only stayed for a cup of tea at most and ran away, never staying for half an hour. ”

"How can this house be the one who is untrustworthy, and I will not frame you without real evidence." After speaking, Governor Liao waved to the side. "Wen Yuan, tell this Yu Xianggong about the situation at that time!"

The little man from Fang Cai walked out of the queue at this time and bowed to Governor Liao. "Yes! At that time, the villain was ordered to be in the Wentao Courtyard of Phoenix Mountain, secretly observing if there were suspicious characters here.

That day, the villain kept watch in Wentao Courtyard all night and did not see anyone. In the morning, I suddenly heard footsteps, I thought it was Second Brother Bai and they came to change the guard with me, so I was about to come out, but suddenly saw that it was this Yu Xianggong.

At that time, the villain retreated to his hiding place. Then I saw this Yu Xianggong walk into Wentao Courtyard in surprise, and I heard him say to himself at that time: How can this be? ”

When Yu Ren heard this, he finally understood. It turned out that this catcher was hiding in the dark in advance, no wonder he remembered that he was not discovered by the two catchers who went up the mountain at that time, but they knew so well about their going to Wentao Courtyard, it turned out that there was still a hidden place in the dark.

However, at that time, he clearly remembered that he had only spent five minutes in that courtyard, and since the catcher had seen himself clearly in the dark at that time, there would never be such a big deviation. The only explanation is: this Liao prefect wants to frame himself.
