Shao Xi really couldn't understand the professionalism of this business, and he actually bit the silver peeled off the corpse with his teeth like this, it was disgusting to think about. Who would want to do such a thing if it wasn't for their livelihood? No matter what era it is, those who live at the bottom are the saddest.

"Where's the silver you peeled?"

Seeing Shao Xi's question, the servant took out a small cloth bag from his arms and opened it carefully, revealing a piece of blackened silver inside.

When Shao Xi reached out to pick it up, it was obvious that he was reluctant to take it, it seemed that he originally planned to keep this piece of silver for himself, but now that the adult in front of him wanted to use it for the purpose of investigating the case, he had to hand it over.

Shao Xi took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, stuffed it in his hand, and then asked him again, "Do you have to make a document and hand in the inquest you did today?" If you are asked to testify in court one day, but there will be some risks, would you be willing? ”

"The villain is a man, the inquest must be made and handed in, and it is also the villain's job to testify in court, but when it comes to risks, I don't know what kind of risk it is?"

"If you are promoted to the county office, you can tell the truth about the results of your investigation, but if one day you are asked to go to the state government to testify, you may offend the officials in the county, and then you don't have to scruple, I will protect you, and of course I will not treat you badly."

After speaking, Shao Xi took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and stuffed it in his hand.

When he saw that the adult in front of him was so generous, he hurriedly agreed: "The villain will listen to the arrangement of the adult, and the adult will let the villain do what he does, and the villain will do it, and he will live up to the adult's trust." ”

"Today, you and I must not tell outsiders about our agreement, but if I get your help in the future, I will be grateful heavily."

"The villain understands, and the villain is all subject to the arrangement of the adult."

Shao Xi nodded with satisfaction, turned around and walked out of the mortuary.

At this time, many officials were waiting outside the mortuary, and when they saw Shao Xi coming out of it, they all gathered around and asked about the results of the inquest.

"There are still many doubts in this case, and I will inform you of the results after I go back and take a closer look. It's getting late, so go back and rest! If there is anything that needs to bother you, I will send someone to ask for it. ”

Just as everyone was dispersed, Chen Mohuai and Liang Daoqian stepped forward and asked, "I wonder if Lord Shao has a judgment in his heart at this time?" ”

"It's just some conjectures, after I go back to discuss with Lord Wu, I will come to the mansion tomorrow to visit with Lord Chen."

After speaking, without waiting for the two of them to ask more, Shao Xi turned around and walked towards the outside of the yamen. At this time, Liang Daoqian's voice came from behind him.

"It must be the thief who did it, and if he failed to steal, he killed and set fire to cover up his crime, and if this man fell into my hands, he would have died without life."

Shao Xi stopped, turned around and asked Liang Daoqian with a cold face: "Lord Liang seems to hate this thief very much, listening to Lord Liang's tone, I can't wait to peel it and cramp it, but Lord Liang's family has also been patronized by this thief?" Or is there some other reason? ”

Liang Daoqian hurriedly bowed down and said, "No, no, no, I just hate this thief for killing people and setting fire to do all kinds of bad things, not as Lord Shao guessed." ”

"Before the truth is revealed, no one can convict others at will, and how can human lives be said in vain?"

After Shao Xi finished speaking, he turned around and left the county guard mansion, and Liang Daoqian, who was behind him, was sweating on his head at this time, and said in his heart that this Lord Shao was young, but his cold face was not small.

When Shao Xi returned to the inn, Lao Wu was already waiting for him in the room.

After Shao Xi closed the door, he asked Lao Wu, "How are you checking over there?" What is out of the ordinary? ”

Lao Wu casually leaned back in his chair and said, "Don't ask me how it is there, tell me, what are you talking about with that girl in the courtyard for a long time tonight?" ”

"Weren't you on the room at the time? Still ask me? ”

"When I arrived, I happened to see you kid shaking your head, pretending to be there chanting poetry, who knows what you said before?"

"Well, I told you about this, you can't blame me for being nosy."

Lao Wu drooped his eyelids and raised his chin, which means "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have a fart, let it go." ”

So Shao Xi told Lao Wu what he said in the garden tonight with Ye Ziyuan from beginning to end, and then shrank aside and waited for Lao Wu to go crazy.

Surprisingly, Lao Wu not only did not get mad, but laughed, which is very abnormal.

"I don't object, let's redeem that girl and take her on the road."

"What?"

In the past, every time Shao Xi wanted to meddle in his affairs, Lao Wu would always stop him, could it be that he took the wrong medicine this time?

Shao Xi stepped forward, looked at Lao Wu's face carefully, and raised his hand to try it on Lao Wu's forehead, saying that this is not a fever! So he began to look down and rummage through his fanny pack again.

"Oops! What's wrong with you? What's wrong with it? ”

"I'll see if my medicine is missing, did you steal my medicine and get it wrong?"

"Dead boy, you just took the wrong medicine."

"Didn't you object to me meddling the most? Which tendon was wrong today? When things go wrong, there must be demons, what the hell do you think you're fighting? ”

"What the hell can I do? I just think that girl is not bad, I can follow you and take care of you in the future, and I can follow you for a few years with an old bone? I look good at this girl, and even if I am not there with you one day, I can go on the road with peace of mind. ”

"Old Wu, you don't plan to live to be a hundred years old?"

"Why did you live so long? Do you want to be angry with me for a few more years? ”

Speaking of this, Shao Xi remembered that ten years had passed in the blink of an eye, Lao Wu was almost seventy years old, and he would fall behind him every time he fought his body, and compared with when he ran away with himself outside the small grass hut, it was no longer the same.

"Don't worry, old fellow! No matter how old you live, I am here, I will provide for you and send you to the end. ”

"Phew! I haven't moved to the point where I want you to take care of me, what do I want to do now? ”

Shao Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "Speaking of which, there is still a troublesome matter, I don't know how to deal with it. ”

"It's about the girl's identity, right?"

"Damn, how do you know everything? Are you old fox eavesdropping on us? ”

Lao Wu glanced at Shao Xi, "Do you think I'm a hairy boy like you who has just come out of the rivers and lakes?" After so many years of spinning in the rivers and lakes, if I couldn't even see this, I wouldn't be alive today, and you still have a lot to learn. ”

Shao Xi became interested at this time, moved a chair and sat next to Lao Wu, and asked excitedly: "Tell me, tell me, how did you see it?" When did you see it? ”

"What I've taught you over the years is for nothing, and you forget everything when you see a beautiful girl?"

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me, how do you see that?"

"Do you remember when I taught the three of you how to judge a person's martial arts multiplication?"

"You gave an example, the dancing girls in the hook column are generally cultivated exercises and body methods, which belong to inferior martial arts!"

Lao Wu raised his hand to look at the back of Shao Xi's head, "Are you a pig?" The moment she flashed to the center of the hall after taking the Emerald Feather Sword from your hand the night before, it was obvious that she had cultivated the mental method to have such a fast speed, coupled with her sword dancing posture, it could be seen that she had also practiced the technique, which was enough to prove that she was practicing superior martial arts. ”

"You can tell who she is by that, why don't I believe it?"

"Of course you can't rely on this alone, I admit that this girl is a woman of integrity, but it is difficult for a woman in the general checklist to refuse such a thing as a favorite guest offering to redeem herself, and she can refuse to prove that she has her own way of making money."

"That's all? Gone? Shao Xi pouted.

"And then it's tonight, the ghost believes that the two of you met by chance, did you chase that place and disappear, and then you met her?"

Shao Xi nodded in agreement: "I am the same as you at this point, and I don't believe that I met her by chance tonight, but I have another way of judging myself." ”

This time, Lao Wu was interested, "Tell me how you found out her identity?" ”

"Do you remember the poem she wrote that night when she danced the sword? If it's just a coincidence that she has the word 'kite' in her name, then that poem already tells me who she is. ”

"I don't understand poetry, you who have read books like to do this kind of riddle-like stuff the most."

"What she recited that day was a Tibetan poem, connecting the four words in the middle of the four sentences of her seven-character quatrain, which is exactly the four characters of 'flying kite under the moon'."

"Maybe it's a coincidence!" Lao Wu said with some disapproval.

"It's not a coincidence, I changed her poem in the same way tonight, and she understood, proving that her poem was intended to hint at her identity to me, just to see if I could understand the deep meaning, which was a kind of temptation for her."

"Anything else?"

"Yes, before I hinted to her tonight that I knew her identity, she used the excuse of keeping it as a memory, and asked me to use the sword qi to cut off the corner of her clothes, and she didn't know that I had already smelled her peculiar fragrance on the corner."

"So, you already suspected her identity from the multiplication of martial arts that night?"

"Of course! Otherwise, wouldn't you be a vain religion? But sometimes people have to deliberately pretend to be confused, at least to save face for you, right? ”

Lao Wu instantly felt that his sense of superiority just now was not fragrant at the moment, it turned out that this kid pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, pretending to be confused in front of him.

"It seems that you asked the government to arrange manpower to patrol the guards in the whole city tonight, but also to let her retreat."

"That's right, this should be the purpose of you taking the initiative to ask the two of us to participate in this matter, right?"

"You little fox!"

"You old fox!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.
