Chapter 162: They Won't Die in Vain!

Huo Yijun met Jiang Xie's gaze, his eyes firm.

"Xia Guan has not found a way to control the living corpse, but someone knows how to control the living corpse!"

Jiang Xie's expression changed, and finding a way to control the living corpse can be said to be the biggest progress in the development of the case so far.

"Who!"

Huo Yijun turned around and pointed at Li Si!

"He's a wizard, so he can naturally control living corpses!"

Li Si's eyes widened, he was originally brought into the palace as a witness, and reached a consensus with Huo Yijun in advance, how could she reveal his identity in turn!

"No!! Your Excellency has wronged! ”

Li Si crawled in front of the person and kowtowed many times in a row: "I am an ordinary laborer on the Chang'an Wharf, and I have helped the Huo family uncle transport the corpse to the Huo Mansion, I am really not a wizard!" ”

Li Si's words and Huo Yijun's testimony made everyone even more confused.

Huo Yijun lowered his eyes and looked at him with contempt: "Roll up his sleeves, there is a wizard mark on his right arm, which is the totem of the flame bird they believe in, which can prove his identity." ”

"It is also recorded in folk anecdotes and old stories of the previous dynasty that the dead pawn marks on the floating corpses of Jinghe and the living corpses stored in the pawn shop warehouse are actually the marks of the puppets of the dead soldiers."

Jiang Xie also looked at Li Si with a cold gaze.

Under the gaze of the two, Li Si's mood changed from the previous panic to the current indifference.

"Your Majesty, please ask the prefect of Xuanying Capital and the old woman of Jinghe Village, as long as they are present, the truth of the living corpse case will be revealed!"

The emperor stood up with a solemn expression and a serious expression: "This case should be understood, just announce it according to Lord Xiaohuo's wishes." ”

Huo Yijun looked at Chen Changsheng: "Trouble Lord Chen to go again, and call the old woman of Jinghe Village and the prefect of Yingdu into the palace." ”

When his eyes met, Chen Changsheng realized that Huo Yijun was not pretending to be silent, but had something to say at the right time.

An hour later, Chen Changsheng led people to the temple.

The old woman and the prefect of Yingdu knelt down and saluted, and Huo Yijun asked the old woman to recount what happened to his son and the other villagers.

"The old woman has three sons, the head of Jinghe Village, the former deputy commander of the Gyeonggi Praetorian Guard, Fang Hua, is my eldest son, a month ago Hua was fishing with people when he accidentally saw a passenger boat, he took the newly caught fish as usual and sold it to passing ships, and after he got on the boat, he accidentally saw a group of wizards."

"They dressed in strange costumes and conspired, infiltrated Yingdu under the cover of being doctors, and waited for an opportunity to poison and cause panic. When my son found out, he led the young people of the village to stop the boat before the dock and take down the wizards, but they were not heard from as soon as they went. ”

"Until a few days ago, my son came back dying, but all the people who traveled with him were persecuted to death, and my son asked the old woman to report to the official to arrest the sorcerers who were plotting against him, but the prefect of Yingdu did not believe what I said."

"There is no way, I can only follow my son's confession in the suicide note, throw the corpses of some people into Jinghe, and some of them will be transported to the abandoned warehouse of the pawn shop, hoping that this will attract the attention of the court and catch those people!"

After the old woman finished speaking, Chen Changsheng suddenly thought of the rumors about the warehouse: "So, the woodcutter went to the warehouse to take shelter from the rain before, and the female ghost he accidentally saw was you who carried the corpse?" ”

"That's right."

The old woman confessed: "We were transporting the corpse at the time, and we were afraid that someone would disrupt the plan, so the old woman's daughter was specially scared outside. ”

Jiang Xie clenched his fists tightly, so that the whole case was clear.

"So, in fact, the two cases that happened were all committed by you, and those six hundred people were using their lives to stop the danger brought by the wizard and prevent the Yingdu from a catastrophe."

The old woman bowed to the ground, and the tone of the whole narration was calm, as if she was telling someone else's story.

"Your Majesty, my son did what he should do as a general, and the old woman and the women of Jinghe Village never thought that this decision was wrong, but unfortunately they did not succeed and were tortured."

"Now that there are frequent murders, please ask Your Majesty to make a clear judgment!"

Huo Yijun turned to face everyone, and finally his eyes fell on the old woman: "Grandma, don't worry, they won't die in vain." ”

"Now that the case has become clear, the group of wizards that Fang Hua noticed is actually the Bian Divine Doctor who treated my eldest brother Huo Yijue's eye disease, and now he is dead, as a son, Li Si once said to his subordinates that he wanted to avenge his father, Li Si's most direct motive for killing!"

"What's more, Li Si and Bian's Divine Doctor have gone to the passenger ship steward to verify that they are wizards, and there are six people left in the company, and they also ask Your Majesty to order a wanted shot!"

As soon as the emperor heard this, he immediately allowed it and ordered the Seishoji to arrest all the remaining wizards.

"Hahaha-" Li Si suddenly laughed.

He got up and pointed at Huo Yijun: "Lord Huo really played a good hand, and after using me, he directly abandoned me unceremoniously, and you still can't trust people too simply, but Huo Yijun, don't forget, it was you who asked me to go to Qingzheng Division to provide false clues, and you asked me to secretly spread the legend of the skeleton god, and it was you who linked the matter of witchcraft to Huo Yijue!" ”

"Maybe you haven't figured it out now, why did the prince know that Huo Yijue was controlled by poison." Li Si's eyes flashed with cold light, and a smile gradually appeared, "That's because I don't only provide clues to Qing Zhengji, but the Prince's East Palace also knows about it, I like to see the ridiculous way you bite each other, hahaha!" ”

"Huo Yijun, you worked hard to marry the Huo family and finally maintained the Huo family, in order to win trust, you really did everything, admire and admire."

Li Si stood up suddenly, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

He snapped his fingers, and suddenly Huo Yijue, who was originally lying on the stretcher, suddenly moved!!

"Tricked corpse !!"
