Chapter 040: The Accumulation of Years of Robbery

In the evening, there was a person who came to find him, it was the person sent by the county guard to investigate the case, named Yi Wu, Ye Xing didn't recognize it, but that person knew that Ye Xing was a disciple of the county guard, so it could be Li Xuantong's trusted subordinate.

Ye Xing introduced the process of investigating the case to Yi Wu, and it was speculated that it was not an ordinary homicide case.

Yi Wu asked, "Commander Ye, why is it not an ordinary murder case?" Could there be another reason? ”

Ye Xing said, "Because there is no loss of property in the deceased's family, the murderer and the deceased's family are familiar with each other, not for money, not for color, it is very strange, and what is even more strange is that the murderer and the deceased do not seem to have any contact on weekdays, because no neighbor has ever seen the two interact." And the murderer died halfway, whether it was suicide or being poisoned halfway, and even this was not a simple homicide. ”

Yi Wu said, "Can't it be a love killing?" ”

"The female deceased is cooking, it can be seen that she recognizes the murderer, and the murderer does not interact with the family on weekdays, but is very familiar, so there is only one possibility, that is, I don't want people to know that they are acquainted. You can do a background check from the industry they work in, as well as the background! ”

"It's a very strange move that the murderer is still at the scene, there must be something still at the scene, he wants to get it, or he wants to know the process of the government's investigation of the case, this person is either perverted or wants to hide something, but when he returns to the scene of the crime, the government has already come, so it is inconvenient for him to enter the scene again."

Yi Wu nodded, thanked Ye Xing for his help, and then said goodbye and left.

Ye Xing sat and practiced all night, and he didn't ask about the people in the special training team, if he was in the town and had to help himself, then these people would be of little use.

Early the next morning, Ye Xing and Ye Qingyan got up, and the team didn't have a guest house, but just found a vacant lot in the town, and everyone slept together on the fire.

Ye Xing called the 15 captains and gave each of them a piece of paper, which was written exactly how to change the breath while walking, let them learn it by themselves and teach it to everyone, everyone must learn it before they reach the goal, and it is the responsibility of the captain if someone does not learn it.

Ye Xing stared at them solemnly and said softly, "Everyone must arrive at the target place on time and safely, and cooperate with each other along the way!" Since yesterday, I'm not going to pay any attention to you anymore, and if you get to Camp 1 and there's one less person in your team, you'll be expelled! Change someone if you're late! ”

The captains replied, "Yes! He hurriedly ran out.

Ye Xing didn't pay attention to them anymore, he only told them to set off quickly, they had to arrive at the target place at the specified time, and he and Ye Qingyan led the horse to set off first.

Ye Xing didn't pay attention to the situation of the team this time, and started his footwork cultivation by himself, and today's goal is to reach Qingyun Town, which is 100 miles away, which is the goal that Ye Xing asked Ye Qingyan to achieve.

Ye Xing found that most of the roads were along the banks of the Xijiang River, and the road was still relatively wide, although the road was surrounded by high mountains and dense forests, but there were no particularly steep places.

There are many beasts in the mountains and forests on the road, but they are not too powerful beasts, and they should not be very dangerous.

Walking all the way, there is little rest in the middle, just eating dry food and water, just keep walking, in the evening, there are no pedestrians on the road, and finally come to the small forest that leaves Qingyun Town and only has a road of 10 miles, and the small forest that passes through this mountain road is the town.

Ye Qingyan was even more tired and wanted to die, panting like a cow, sweating through his shirt, his eyes were white, but Ye Xing was still extremely relaxed.

As soon as he entered the grove, Ye Xing felt that something was wrong, there were no insects and no birds, and it was a little strange in the complete silence.

Sure enough, in the depths of the woods, six people jumped out, all with long wooden sticks, and surrounded the two of them and four horses.

Ye Xing had already had a flying knife in his hand, and he didn't say anything, just sneered.

Ye Qingyan was stunned in a panic, of course this is also fake, Ye Qingyan is not to say that he is an acquired third-layer martial artist who has been strictly trained for several months.

One of the tall men with cheeks raised a stick to Ye Xing and said, "We are just asking for money, we don't want to hurt you, you put down everything now and go back." ”

Ye Xing looked at Ye Qingyan, nodded at it, and suddenly pulled out the short knife and knocked the big man's long stick away, the short knife was already on his neck, and Ye Qingyan was already on the neck of another person.

This sudden change was completely unprepared, so all 6 people were suppressed.

Ye Xing said lightly, "Tell me what's going on?" Don't tell lies, or my knife won't recognize people! ”

The big man said fearfully, "The good man is merciful, I'm not a bad person, I'm just desperate, I want to make some entanglement and go home." We really didn't do anything unreasonable. ”

Ye Xing said, "Just now you said that we should put down our things and leave, I didn't want to kill us, so I let you go, if not, you have already fallen." Tell me what's going on. ”

Dahan hurriedly said, "Yes, yes!" We are good citizens, and we dare not do such things that hurt nature and reason! I said I said. ”

It turned out that they were a group of foot merchants, but they were robbed in the woods yesterday evening, and all their belongings were robbed, and they hid in the depths of the woods all day before they broke free.

A group of 6 people is now penniless, hungry and hungry, and wants to get a little silver to go to the town in front to get some food, it is best to go home with a little entanglement, just now I saw Ye Xing and the two coming over, and I moved my mind.

Ye Xing saw that they were all wearing thin robes, their faces and hands were red and white, they were obviously bitten by insects, and they were holding sticks made of branches, it seemed that they were not lying.

Ye Qingyan took out some dry food and a kettle, and let them eat, they were really hungry, they were not polite at all, they picked it up and ate it, the eagerness for food had already made them forget the proper etiquette.

Ye Xing watched them gobble up, and waited for a while before asking, "Many people passed by on this road, why didn't you ask for help?" ”

The man said, "We've been tied up in the depths of the jungle far from here, and we don't know what to do with us, but we just broke free and ran away." Not long after I ran here, I ran into you. ”

Ye Xing said, "So, the bandits' nest is not far from here?" How many people are there? ”

The man said, "I don't know, we were just taken to the dense forest in front of us and tied to a tree, and we don't know where their nest is." It was 10 masked men who robbed us."

Ye Xing asked them to follow, first went to the town, when they arrived in the town, it was completely dark, Ye Xing stayed in an inn, and opened a room for the 6 people, and gave them 10 taels of silver, so that they could solve the problem of eating by themselves.

The 6 people went out with a thousand thanks, and Ye Xing and Ye Qingyan also ate and rested.

The next day, Ye Xing and Dahan went to the town to report the case, only to learn that there have been countless such robberies, and since there were no casualties and no bandits could be found, it has always become an unsolved case.

The first report was made decades ago, but because the cases were irregular, they happened all over the neighborhood, mostly at night, and there were no killings, so I didn't know where the bandits were.

Ye Xing took out the waist card of the commander of the city guards, and the mayor of the town hurriedly entertained him, Ye Xing just carefully checked the backlog of cases over the years.

He found that the robbers were all small businessmen, all at night, in remote places, and there were no murders, or those who reported the crime were unharmed, and they were all masked bandits.

Ye Xing rode back to the woods and also found the place where the six people were tied, but found nothing.

Back in the town and chatting with Ye Qingyan about this matter, Ye Qingyan said, "This kind of thing can only be done by civilians, not killing people, only robbing small businessmen, it can't be real bandits." ”

Ye Xing nodded, it is very simple, the security of this Qingyun Town is not good, and the official reputation of the town government is also not good.

It is said that the mountain villages near Qingyun Town are all remote places, the mountains are high and dense, and the population is very small, and most of the mountain people are uncivilized people, Qingyun Town is only more than 200 miles away from Donghai City, in fact, it is already an extremely backward and uncivilized place.

And the town government has strict taxation, and the mountain people have grievances and have nowhere to go, so this place is lifeless and looks depressed.

"That could have killed someone, and it wasn't reported at all! There may be unknown reasons for this. Imagine that it has been like this for decades, why no one pays attention to it, it is not solved at all, and it is not investigated at all! Ye Xing said.

Therefore, these robberies can only be stopped, and if there are no serious homicides, it is estimated that no one will ever take it seriously.

In fact, even if there is a serious homicide, the town guards of Qingyun Town are not capable of handling the case, and there will be no result.

Ye Xing was not interested in investigating the case, nor did he have the idea of Bao Qingtian, so he stopped.

I think it was done by the nearby civilians, because they were too poor, they made a living by robbing and did not kill anyone, so they could only be considered unlucky by small merchants.
