The inner room should be a place to dry horse intestines, and the horse intestines hanging everywhere, coupled with the pungent smell of blood, make people feel oppressive and terrifying.

Swish......

The fire was lit up, and the crowd finally saw the situation inside the house.

But I saw a person tied to the wooden pillar in the center, and this person was also in a strange kneeling position, and his arms were stretched forward, so that people could clearly see that his two hands had been chopped off!

Blood was pouring all over the ground, and it was scarlet.

This time, without having to look closely, Xu Zhen could also judge that this person was definitely a corpse, and there was no possibility of being alive.

Because his body had stiffened, and his blood had coagulated to a brown color, he had apparently been dead for some time.

Sure enough, when Cheng Xiao stepped forward to check, he suddenly shook his head helplessly, indicating that this person was dead.

Next, he raised the person's head to identify it, then nodded and said, "That's right, this person is Liu Sanyang!"

The room was small, and the other catchers didn't dare to enter the house, so they could only look outside the door.

Xu Zhen could see that the deceased was different from Tong Xianling, his eyes showed no signs of being blinded, and his hands were not only cut off five fingers, but directly violently cut off his hands.

Based on the shape and volume of blood, as well as the posture of the deceased, Xu Zhen preliminarily judged that he should have been unable to stop the bleeding in time after his hands were cut off, which eventually led to excessive blood loss and death.

Although the killer did not bind his arms, he was unable to break free from the ropes that bound him because he did not have hands.

If there is still suspicion of interrogation in Tong County, then the scene in front of him is an obvious execution!

In addition, judging by the clotting state of the blood and the stiffness of the corpse, the time of Liu Sanyang's death may be more than 24 hours.

In other words, the monk was the hand that moved on Liu Sanyang last night.

It seems that this monk was really well-planned and prepared.

I don't know, what is the relationship between Liu Sanyang and Tong County Ling, and what kind of grudge do they have with the monk?

Broken!

Thinking of this, Xu Zhen hurriedly reminded Cheng Xiao: "Cheng Zhutou, since the horse intestine represents a deceased, then there is also a fish short!" ”

Before, the fast hunters were divided into two ways, Fu Bin and others had already gone to find out the news of the fish short, they first had to find out who was still making fish glue in Yanping County, and then they could find the target.

"That's right," Shen Yu said, "Cheng Zhutou, the fish short should also represent a dead person, should we go over and take a look, I don't know if the other group has found it?" ”

At this time, Xu Zhen suddenly found that Cheng Xiao's face was wrong.

He looked at Liu Sanyang's corpse blankly, his eyes were extremely complicated, as if he had thought of something, and it seemed that he had fallen into some kind of memory, and he didn't respond for a long time.

"Cheng Zhutou," Shen Yu asked again when he saw this, "do you want to ...... Shall I go and see? ”

"No need!" Finally, Cheng Xiao stood up and said with a solemn expression, "Fu Bin, they must have found the wrong one!" I know who the fish short is! I know that too...... Who is that monk? ”

"Huh?"

Xu Zhen and the others couldn't help but be taken aback.

……

Unexpectedly, after Cheng Xiao brought Xu Zhen and others out, he went inside along the alley of Liu Sanyang's house.

After walking less than 20 meters, they had just turned a corner, and they saw several people with lights on and surrounding the door of a certain house, shouting as if something big had happened.

"Hurry up, hurry up and report to the official!" Someone shouted urgently.

"Wow......" Someone ran out quickly, and then squatted on the edge of the ditch and vomited, the scene was very chaotic.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and asked those people, "What's wrong?" ”

"Huh?" Only then did people recognize Cheng Xiao's fast hunting suit, and one of the older people hurriedly said, "It's the official errand, the official errand is here, great!" Official, there are dead people here! Lu Lao Liu is dead! ”

Yes?

Xu Zhen and the others frowned, they didn't expect that there were also dead people here.

came to the front, but saw that this is a relatively dilapidated house, similar to the horse intestine workshop, and the word "Lu Ji" is written on the door number.

It seems that this place must have been a workshop before.

"Dead," Cheng Xiao asked, "but Lu Yusheng?" ”

"Yes, yes!" The older man wondered, "How do you know that?" ”

Cheng Xiao ignored him, but walked straight into the courtyard.

"Huh? Official, be careful," the man quickly reminded, "Don't be scared!" ”

So saying, the man chased after him.

Ay?

Xu Zhen had a super good memory, and he almost recognized it at a moment, this elderly person turned out to be the manager of Wanhualou. Before he went to Wanhualou to find the two women who were beaten by Qiu Batian, he had met with this person.

The steward of Wanhualou also has a resounding name, called Guigong.

What's going on?

Xu Zhen frowned, could it be that Wanhualou was also involved?

However, the case was serious, and Xu Zhen didn't have time to inquire in detail, so he hurriedly followed Cheng Xiao into the courtyard.

The yard is much smaller than Liu Sanyang's house, and the house only has two main rooms and one partial room.

There was a light in the main room, although I had been mentally prepared, but after entering, it still made everyone feel uncomfortable.

But seeing that the deceased Lu Yusheng was tied to the bed, he was also in a kneeling posture, his eyes were gouged out, and the location of his heart was also blurred......

Because of being bound, this person has a chest and a head held high, so it looks even more hideous and bloody.

Oh......

When everyone saw this, they were all too frightened to look at them directly, except for Xu Zhen.

Xu Zhen found that this person's eyes were gouged out, showing two terrifying blood holes, but Tong Xianling's eye was stabbed blind.

Tong Xianling, Liu Sanyang, Lu Yusheng......

One was mutilated and tortured, dying;

One had his hands chopped off and bled to death;

One was gouged out in both eyes and stabbed in the heart......

Is this really the one who made the riddle doing it? If he seeks revenge on these three people, why would he use different methods of killing?

"Official......" At this time, the manager of Baihualou introduced, "Lu Yusheng is now helping the kitchen in Wanhualou, and he hasn't come to work for two days, so the boss asked me to come over and have a look."

Unexpectedly, he actually ...... That's it!

"I ...... I was terrified, so I quickly called his neighbor, you see...... What can I do? ”

"Yes," said a neighbor in the back, "I really can't figure it out, this Lu Lao Liu is so poor that he even sold his daughter-in-law, how could anyone kill him?" Did this provoke anyone? ”

Listening to everyone's discussions, Xu Zhen carefully observed the corpse again, and found that the corpse's death time should be earlier than Liu Sanyang's, but it was not much earlier.

Wanhualou is only open at night, and the monk should have killed Lu Yusheng first, and then Liu Sanyang, after all, the two lived very closely.

But...... Don't forget that at that time, the monk hadn't done anything to Tong County!

After he killed these two people, he also had to take Tong Xian Ling to the ruins of Daxiangguo Temple...... It seems...... Isn't it a bit too rushed?

Don't...... Is it possible that the monk still has accomplices?

Ay?

Isn't that right?

Thinking of this, Xu Zhen wondered even more, this doesn't seem to make sense, right?

If the monk is just looking for revenge on these three people, then it is just a matter of stabbing the enemy, why did he go to the yamen to surrender?

Turning himself in may still be explained, but why did he come up with riddles?

Suddenly, Xu Zhen remembered what the monk said to Song Zhili: The game has just begun, and the excitement is still to come!

Oh......

Xu Zhen gasped, could it be ...... What is the more terrible purpose of the monk?

……
