Chapter 221: Pull a hair and move the whole body
Although I was already stunned, I could at least keep my calm.
"Search and check to see if there are any useful clues!" "Hmm!"
The remaining eight corpses were quickly and carefully searched by a group of people, and the blades and some physical features they used were also found one by one, and the money on them was not touched.
However, it is obvious that this is not very much like a case of murder for money, but more like a grudge between the rivers and lakes.
Generally speaking, when it comes to grievances, things will become more complicated.
On the one hand, Dayong does not allow the Jianghu people to be too presumptuous, but on the other hand, he also has a certain tacit understanding with the martial arts, as long as he does not wantonly attack ordinary people, the scale of fighting between martial artists will be much wider.
But that's generally speaking, so many people died at once, and almost all of them had good martial arts, even if it didn't involve ordinary people, it also meant that there was some kind of variable, and it was also a big case.
After some careful searching, a catcher quickly found a pamphlet from one of the corpses, and when he opened it, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Lu Yin? Something isn't right."
Caught in doubt, he immediately went to the head catcher who was studying the blade of the dead.
"Head, there's something wrong with this lead."
"I'll see!"
Li Zhutou took the half-palm-sized one-page booklet, looked at the contents on it, and immediately saw that something was wrong, and the official seal on it was obviously fake.
The character "Fu" on the seal of the official seal of the Great Yong will make a fuss on the , and the δΈΏ, as well as on the surrounding borders, font spacing, and blank space, which is obviously a forgery.
"Ordinary people in the rivers and lakes will specially fake a road guide?"
"I'm afraid I won't pay attention to it at all, at most avoid it when I meet Chaluyin, do you need to make a special fake?"
It is undeniable that many people in the rivers and lakes may leave a road guide, most of them are from their homes, and they don't bother to pay attention to the government as for the road guide to other places.
Anyway, unless there is something, Dayong Road is not strictly investigated, and it is far from being difficult to move an inch without that.
Keeping a hometown of oneself is also a precaution, and even some wanderers may not even stay here, but are more willing to make some friends with heads and faces, and they can come forward to testify at critical moments.
And this road guide in his hand has been stamped with a lot of stamps, covering two states and four counties, and it seems that this warrior really abides by the rules, but the stamps are all fake!
"Rummage through the other corpses to see if there is any way!"
"Got it!"
The other catchers quickly began to focus on rummaging through the corpses, and actually turned out two more copies.
"Head find a copy!" "I've got that too!"
"Bring it!"
The other two guides were sent to Li Zhutou, and the three guides were opened together.
There is no doubt that the stamps are all fake, and in addition to the difference between the state and county ranks, they all look like they are all in that mold, and there are a lot of stamps stamped.
"This one, even if you forge a guide, is it so troublesome?" "yes, can't they make it if they don't make it?"
Li Zhutou frowned.
"yes, it's okay if you don't make it."
It's like taking off your pants and farting, it's not easy to get a stamp, do you need to fake?
Except for the martial arts conference that year, I haven't seen too many martial artists go to the yamen to stamp it, and it is such a simple thing as Gai Luyin, do you want to make so many fake seals?
At this moment, there is a catcher who is rubbing his hands over there to keep warm and sighing.
"I thought that this group of martial artists had changed their sexuality and become so well-behaved, it turned out that they were all fakes, and one day they were really so well-behaved, then we Dayong estimated that the world would be too peaceful."
This sentence suddenly made Li Zhutou's heart jump suddenly, and he had goosebumps again.
"Let's go, take the evidence and go down the mountain! Lao Zhao Lao Lu, you take your apprentices to pick up the people who infiltrated the Xiangshan Zen Temple, and the rest and I will go back to the county government immediately, quickly-"
After saying this, the head catcher carried the three pamphlets in his arms, and also took the two blades.
The others looked at each other, but reacted quickly, and left with some blades on the ground.
"Head, what's wrong?" "But what did you find?"
Li Zhutou's heart was beating faster than when he found the corpse, his steps were a little chaotic, and he didn't answer the question of the old catcher next to him immediately.
After walking out for a long time, Li Zhutou looked at the bystanders.
"These warriors, I'm afraid that they are not my mediocre people at all, but those of other countries! Not to mention that all of them are strong in martial arts, they have already infiltrated Suzhou, who is the person who killed them? If it were me, it would be fine, if not? β
As soon as these words came out, the two old catchers around him were suddenly shocked and cold.
"Is there going to be a war at the border pass?"
"If you have a fine work, you don't necessarily have to fight immediately, but this is not something we can deal with, we need to go back quickly and report to the county lord!"
Compared with the meritorious mentality at the time, the discovery of this meeting has been so big that the fast catchers are a little confused, how can there be any joy of solving the case and making meritorious contributions, except for three points to forcibly calm down, seven points are all panicked.
Inside the Xiangshan Zen Temple, a few people pretending to be ordinary pilgrims have also taken a turn in the temple, and it is naturally impossible to ignore the situation of meditation in the courtyard over there, where there will be two people looking at the other pilgrims in the distance.
"None of the people who participated in the meditation over there have ever moved?"
"I've heard that it's been a few days, and I don't eat or drink without moving."
"That's weird!" "Did the monks of the temple secretly deliver food at night?"
A pilgrim on the side glared at the talker.
"What do you know about the future life, this is a monk who is contemplating the Dharma, and some of us have come to see it this night, but they haven't moved at all."
"Don't sleep at night on a cold day to stare at this?"
At this moment, another catcher came over and patted the speaker on the shoulder, who glanced at him and walked with him.
In a short time, the few catchers who had entered the monastery met at the front gate and left the monastery together, but there were no other colleagues outside, and they kept walking on like ordinary pilgrims.
"Those who went missing don't seem to have returned."
"Well, from the little master who cleaned up the monk's house, I heard that those luggage seemed to have been put in one place, and no one came to collect it."
A few people were talking in a low voice, and a whistle came from the forest not far away, and several people immediately turned around.
An old catcher immediately asked with concern.
"What did you find?"
"The missing person hasn't come back yet, and there are still two eminent monks in it who are studying the Dharma, which has attracted a lot of onlookers, what about you? And what about Li Tou? β
"This matter may be tricky, Li Tou went back to the yamen, and the two of them went back to explain the situation together, and the other two were here with us."
Several people who had entered the monastery were shocked, and their intuition and experience made them understand that something was wrong.
"What clues did you find?"
"We found the scene of the murder, in the col deep in the mountains, but this matter is not as simple as a murder case"
On the other side, Li Zhutou and a few catchers had already rushed back to the Sanxiang County Office, and directly sent a few people to find a few officials, while the catcher himself went to see the county lieutenant of his boss.
A moment later, in the prefectural magistrate's office, four high-ranking officials from Sanxiang County arrived, and the swords and three pamphlets that had been searched were all in front of them, and the situation found had been explained in detail.
All four officers were shocked, and the lieutenant took a scimitar and gently pulled it out of its scabbard.
The metal whispered and saw the shiny blade.
"Good knives! The owner of the knife has used it for a long time, and he also cherishes this knife."
This can be seen from the state of the knife and some wear and tear of the scabbard handle, which is enough to show that the person who uses the knife has good martial arts.
"The weapons brought by these people are not bad, and their martial arts must not be bad!"
"What the adults said is extremely true, the martial arts of the people who killed them are even more terrifying, some of the corpses have a big hole in their bodies, as if they were killed by some unique secret weapon, and these people's martial arts are too late to show it!"
"My lords, the people who infiltrated the temple are back!"
Someone shouted outside, and the county lieutenant immediately let people in.
"Come on in!"
The two people who had not had time to change back into their errand clothes hurriedly walked into the official office and saluted everyone.
"I've seen you!"
The county commander hurriedly waved his hand.
"No need to be polite, tell me what you found inside the temple?"
"Yes, the dozen or so missing people did not come back, and the luggage was also there, and then there were two monks who participated in the meditation and attracted many pilgrims to watch, and the monks of the temple blocked the way, and one of the monks was a monk from Youfang, I don't know if it was the person who wrote in the complaint."
"Where's Master Guangji?"
"I haven't seen it, I can't say it in the meditation room, but I don't know whether it's true or not."
After talking about the situation, no one in the official office spoke for a while, and this matter is no longer something that a small county government in Sanxiang County can manage, but it is impossible to let it go.
"Report to Suzhou, and at the same time lead the troops to the Xiangshan Zen Monastery to investigate, County Lieutenant Zhang, if you take the county soldiers to the past, are you sure to take down the monk directly?"
There are garrisons in Sanxiang County, but it is inevitable that there is a lack of training.
The county lieutenant frowned.
"If that person's martial arts are really so high, and a battalion of soldiers and horses lacks heavy crossbows, they may not be able to take him."
The master bookkeeper immediately said.
"Then don't startle the snake, focus on probing and checking the tube!"
"Better look for the luggage!"
"Does the master have a plan?"
The master, who had not spoken, heard the county order inquiry, and couldn't help frowning and stroking his beard.
"The New Year is approaching, it is normal for people to stay in the temple to pray for blessings, you can not only find an opportunity to see those luggage, but also see what the monks of Xiangshan Zen Temple are like, then whether Master Guangji has been killed depends on which astute colleagues are willing, this matter must be a great achievement!"
The master said and looked at the people in the room, his meaning was obvious, he wanted people to pretend to be pilgrims, no longer just to take a turn, but to stay in the temple to investigate carefully, and explore the reality.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the safety of the country is responsible, the crisis is this matter, and the flying Huang Tengda is also a matter of this, I will go there myself!"
"I'll go too!" "Then I'll go too!"
The county lieutenant said that Li Zhutou and several catchers also followed immediately, and the local evaluation in recent years has been very different, and this matter has been handled by Sanxiang County, and it is definitely a great achievement.
"Alas, there are not too many people!" "Yes, not too many people!"
"The county lieutenant should be careful in everything!"
"Hmm!"
ββ
In the Xiangshan Zen Monastery in the evening of the same day, some pilgrims stayed overnight to fill the vacancy of some pilgrims leaving.
Yi Shuyuan sat outside the separate small guest house, flipping through "Danshu Wonderful", Ding Feixiong hadn't woken up for so long, which made him a little surprised.
However, although the so-called putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha on the spot is the favorite thing mentioned by Buddhism, the real situation is by no means as simple as words.
Yi Shuyuan thought so, put down the book and looked at the sky on the side of the temple, Ding Fei's majestic spirit was about to cause a catastrophe.
However, Yi Shuyuan also vaguely felt a little weird, and there was always a feeling that the influence of qi was getting bigger
