Chapter 44: The Feast (Ask for Follow-up!) )

"We'll have to figure out how to dispense the medicine." Chu Zheng touched the pill in his arms and thought in his heart.

In the Wild Wolf Forest dungeon, he obtained a total of two pill pills.

One is the Great Pill and the other is the Zengyuan Pill.

The strong pill is better, and most of the ones needed in it are well-known medicinal materials.

The most expensive is the white stone.

But the Mighty Pill doesn't need much for the white stone, and 1 tael of silver for the White Stone can match 100 Mighty Pills.

Therefore, the whole can still be matched.

And Zengyuan Dan is obviously much more cumbersome, and the medicinal materials required reach more than thirty kinds, in addition to some medicinal materials that sound very expensive, there are also some medicinal materials, Chu Zheng has never heard of them.

Moreover, Chu Zheng felt that the thing of Zengyuan Dan seemed to have an evil nature.

At the beginning, before the old man died, this thing did not become a Dan at all. After the old man died, he quickly became a pill.

It is not an exaggeration to say that something is an evil elixir.

If there was no need, Chu Zheng didn't want to refine this elixir.

Because if one is not done well, it is very likely that he will be hunted down and killed by some righteous sects.

"But before that, let's think about how to make money." Chu Zheng looked at the sky, it was already early in the morning, and he sighed slightly in his heart.

Immediately, he went into the room and stripped to sleep.

He already has a certain idea of making money, and he is ready to try selling books.

However, this matter is in a hurry, and recently I have been doing character outlines and the like.

Three days later.

Chu Zheng got up very early. After getting up, he had breakfast outside and practiced his sword in the courtyard.

Ma Niu'er and Ma Xiang stared intently at the side.

"Sister, do you say that Uncle Chu's swordsmanship can be immortal?" Ma Xiang looked at Chu Zheng's swordsmanship and asked Ma Niu'er curiously.

"You're stupid." Ma Niu'er rolled her eyes, "If you want to live forever, you must go to the old fairy, and you have to get a bamboo raft to go to the sea like the Monkey King." ”

"Oh." Ma Xiang suddenly realized, "When I grow up, I will take a bamboo raft to the sea to find the old immortals." ”

"I just want to find Huaguo Mountain, there are a lot of delicious ......," Ma Niu'er swallowed and said.

When Ma Xiang heard Ma Niu'er's words, saliva began to flow from his mouth.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

While the two children were chatting, there was a knock on the door.

Hearing the knock on the door, Chu Zheng frowned slightly and put away the iron piece.

In the early hours of this morning, Ma Yong had already gone out of the city to cut wood.

Yu Rong and Chu Qingqing also went to the tailor shop.

It's just a short time now, and there's no way they'll come back so soon.

Therefore, Chu Zheng couldn't think of who was knocking on the door outside for a while.

Thinking of this, he took the piece of iron wrapped in a strip of coarse cloth, went to the door, looked out, and asked, "Who?" ”

"It's me, Xu Rong." A middle-aged man's voice came from outside the door.

Hearing the voice, Chu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.

As the door opened, a Xu Rong wearing a red headcatcher suit stood at the door.

"How? Let's get used to it. Xu Rong asked with a smile.

"Thanks to Brother Xu, we live very well." Chu Zheng said gratefully.

If Xu Rong hadn't rented this house to them, they would probably be living very poorly now.

"It's good to stay. You can live in this house as you like, and I will never change the rent for you. Xu Rong nodded, and then thought of something, and said: "By the way, we have closed yesterday's case, and today I am going to invite you to a meal in Jixianglou, which is considered a thank you." ”

Chu Zheng was slightly stunned, shook his head and said, "Forget it, Brother Xu, you have helped me enough." There is no need to be so extravagant. ”

"It's okay, just be friends and have a good get-together." Xu Rong smiled, patted Chu Zheng's shoulder, and was about to pull Chu Zheng away.

"Wait a minute." Chu Zheng shook his head, "I brought Brother Ma Yong's two children with me, and their two children are not safe at home. And I'll have to talk to the neighbors. ”

"Okay." Xu Rong nodded.

Immediately, Chu Zheng entered the room, put up the iron piece, and brought Ma Niu'er and Ma Xiang out.

After that, he said hello to the nearby neighbors and went out with Xu Rong.

It didn't take long for them to come to Jixianglou.

Jixianglou is a relatively large restaurant in the south of the city, and its owner heard that it came out of the imperial dining room, and the food in the restaurant can be said to be a must.

After arriving at Jixianglou, Chu Zheng saw Zhu Dingwu, Ma Hengyuan, and Yan Fang.

In addition to this, there are several raw faces.

It's all about catching fast.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Chu Zheng, who came from Qingchuan. The groom's case a few days ago was solved by him. Xu Rong took Chu Zheng forward and introduced everyone with a smile.

"I can't imagine that Brother Chu is so young." Someone lamented.

"I heard that the head catcher said that Chu Zheng didn't tie his hair, but I didn't believe it yet, but now I believe it." Another said.

"Oh, I'm going to lie to you." Xu Rong scolded with a smile, and then said to Chu Zheng: "Little Brother Chu, don't see outside, just sit down, all of you are your own brothers here." ”

"Okay, thank you Xu Zhutou and all of you for your hospitality this time." Chu Zheng arched his hand towards everyone and took Ma Xiang and Ma Niu'er into the seat.

"Don't see outside, don't see outside, if it weren't for you, Little Brother Chu, this time, we wouldn't be rewarded by the adults above." Yan Fang said with a smile.

"Yes! Oh, yes! ”

"Little Brother Chu, just sit in peace. You will be my brother in the future, and you can report my name Li Er when you go out in the future. ”

"You're welcome."

“……”

Everyone said.

After taking their seats, everyone began to chat, and after a while, they talked about the case of the previous day.

"If you want to say that woman is really a poisonous woman." One sighed.

"Who's to say it isn't?" Zhu Dingwu thought of the meat in the jar yesterday, his face turned blue, and he said hatefully: "This bride and her mother are both poisonous women." That Wang Zhang's family actually connected Zhang Xiaoxiao with a marriage contract, which should be cut by a thousand cuts......"

There was a heated discussion about yesterday's case.

Chu Zheng was on the side, and he listened with relish.

As a mystery fan, he also likes the story behind the reasoning very much.

Just like a mystery game, a game with only reasoning and no backstory is bound to seem boring.

After listening to it for a while, Chu Zheng was clear about the whole story.

It turned out that three years ago, the groom made a marriage contract with the bride, but because the groom was relatively poor, he never had the face to propose marriage.

Until some time ago, the groom unexpectedly made a sum of money, and with savings, he came to the door to propose.

It's just that he never thought that before the engagement, the bride had already had an affair with the Luo family in the city under the mediation of her mother.

In order to facilitate private meetings, Luo Yuanwai even bought a set of yards near the bride's house.

And when the groom wanted to get married, Luo Yuanwai and Wang Zhang's mother and daughter were a little panicked, for fear that the matter would be revealed.

So Luo Yuanwai didn't do anything, and directly hired a murderer with good water to hide under the bed on the wedding night.

When the bridegroom came in and was drunk and close to the bride, the thugs came out from under the bed and killed the bridegroom.

That night, the murderer and the bride dismembered the groom with a knife and stuffed it into an altar that had been prepared long ago.

After burying the groom's body, the murderer, dressed in the groom's clothes, ran out of the house and jumped into the river.

As for the corpse, it was a homeless man who had been killed long ago.

This matter can almost be said to be seamless.

On the surface, it is a story of a groom who went crazy when he was in a cave and then committed suicide by jumping into the river.

Except for the fact that the groom is crazy and a little suspicious, I don't know some inside information, and there are no other clues, which is completely logical and self-consistent.

In addition, the recent entry of displaced people into the city, the yamen is very busy, and it is estimated that the case will only be hastily closed.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that Chu Zheng had such an accident and reasoned the case completely.
