was quietly sneaking, suddenly saw the fire from the front, the wolves were suddenly startled, "whoop", turned around and walked out of the valley.

And under the dozen or so lit torches, there are more than a dozen vigorous and fearless faces.

No, and a face that is not too old.

It's the face of a thirty-two-year-old, Song Wen.

Hearing the howl of the wolves, Song Wen rubbed his tired face and asked Di Ying, "My lord, can't you go into the valley during the day?" ”

"Don't be afraid, it's just wolves, we're here."

Without waiting for Di Ying to answer, Zhao San comforted Song Wen with a smile.

Song Wen was actually not afraid, but he was puzzled: Master Di not only entered the valley in the middle of the night, but also let them stay quietly in the dark until he heard the movement of the wolves, and then let them light the torches, what was it for?

It can't just be to scare the wolf, right?

How bad is it?

And Peng Liang remembered the past.

When he and the adults were walking through the Taihang Mountains, at night, the adults only piled up the pyres and prepared the torches, but they did not light them lightly.

Unless you encounter a pack of wolves or a pack of beasts like this.

Peng Liang also asked adults about this.

The adult only said, "If you can not disturb the mountains and forests, you will not disturb them." ”

Although Peng Liang didn't understand, it didn't affect his loyalty to adults and his heart of protection, so he didn't ask any more.

Now, someone asked for him.

However, the adults of his family still did not explain this.

Di Ying stood there, looking at the sparse trees, lush weeds, and trickling streams in the valley, and was distracted.

In such an environment, in fact, the murderer can easily do it if he wants to leave no traces.

It's just that it is impossible not to alarm the sheepdogs.

Where wolves will haunt, the alertness of the shepherd dog is quite high.

In the same way, when the wolves sneaked up before, their group heard it.

Even because of the quiet of the night, such a valley should not be too noisy during the day.

Han Lixing shepherding sheep alone, he shouldn't be too careless.

How can someone suddenly attack you?

"You say, what is the murderer's chance?"

Di Ying asked the group.

After asking, he explained: "There are very few people who commit crimes for no reason, and that kind of crime is generally caused by a lack of nature. And the vast majority of people commit crimes, there must always be a reason for committing crimes.

or for wealth, or for love, or for enmity.

Even if it is a murder of passion, there will be a reason to stimulate it.

Han Lixing is just a herdsman who raises sheep to support his family's livelihood.

According to the case file, the number of sheep still grazing in the valley did not decrease after the accident.

And the family background is just ordinary, Han Lixing's body, and he has not found the loss of property.

We can completely understand that we don't have any money with you, right?

So what was the murderer's reason for killing him? ”

"It's supposed to be a love killing, right?"

Song Wen guessed out loud, "I think it should be love killing." After all, Han Lixing was just a herdsman, going out early and returning late to shepherd sheep every day, so he shouldn't have a grudge against anyone, let alone this kind of grudge between life and death, right? ”

Peng Liang objected to Song Wen's opinion.

"Herders are more likely to grudge against people, right? For example, fighting for grassland; The sheep ran away, or ate somebody else's house, or something like that.

Flat-headed people will always quarrel over needles and threads. If you are in a hurry, inexplicable courage will come up.

How much more are sheep? The price of each one is not low. If you quarrel with someone because of this, it's also commonsense, right? ”

"That's not right,"

Zhao San asked out in confusion: "There is a ban on eating meat in the country, and there are very few people who raise livestock, and even fewer people who shepherd sheep. Who can Han Lixing fight with? ”

After listening to Zhao San's words, Xu Si shook his head and said, "Maybe there is another possibility." If you were really hungry for meat, what if you deliberately got into an argument with Han Lixing? And then killed a sheep by mistake? You can't throw it away, can you? Isn't there meat to eat? ”

Because the empress had become a monk in the temple, and the first face was called a "monk" and stayed in the temple, the empress felt that she had a relationship with the Buddha, so she believed in Buddhism.

The whole dynasty also admired Buddhism because of this.

Buddhism, on the other hand, prohibits killing and eating meat. His Majesty issued a decree prohibiting all people from eating meat and killing fish and shrimp.

"Yes, yes, I've heard one thing."

Qian Wu continued Xu Si's words: "A herdsman secretly slaughtered a sheep to feed his sick mother. When it was discovered, it was reported that the sheep had been bitten to death by a wolf. Not eating is a waste. I heard that the local government did not convict him, but he did not know. ”

"Oh?"

Di Ying heard Qian Wu's words and asked him curiously, "Who is the county order?" ”

Qian Wu was stunned for a moment when he heard the question, and then he realized that what the adult asked was: There is no sentence for eating mutton, and the county order of the local government.

replied: "It seems to be called Cheng Ting." Your Excellency, as you know, the origins of the soldiers in the Jinwuwei are complicated, and many of them have been promoted from the army.

I heard them say that Cheng Ting was originally an outstanding general, but because he offended someone, he was made a county commander.

It seems that the place is quite far away from the capital, and it is quite embarrassing for him to think about it. ”

Killing people is not enough.

To get a military general who has devoted his life to fighting on the battlefield and fighting for his life against the enemy to become a civilian county magistrate in the local government is simply more torturous than torture.

There are many people in the army who are not angry and sorry for it, so there are discussions in private, and Qian Wu has heard a few ears.

And Qian Wu's words also made the people around him quiet for a while.

If you empathize with it, you can feel a chill oozing from your back.

Peng Liang looked at his adult worriedly.

My lord, he has already made several martial artists subjugate, and there are still ...... targets

If Your Majesty kicks your adult out of the army, will your adult be able to stand it?

Di Ying was also thinking about this question.

But his answer was: he would be desperate.

Every man, probably from the moment he is ignorant, has the desire to "fight".

As I grew up, I liked to pick up a stick and dance a stick, imagining myself to be a general who killed all sides.

Heroic dreams, Di Ying has also done it.

But on the contrary, like what happened to Cheng Ting, it definitely won't work.

Without thinking about such a fucking question, Di Ying turned the topic back. "Don't go too far, talk about the case."

Song Wen replied: "There is no trace, if the financial killing is excluded, then, the murder of passion can also be ruled out, and the only thing left is to go to the village tomorrow and visit Han Lixing's family and villagers." ”

Di Ying nodded.

By this time some of the brothers had already set up a fire and dragged a dead stump.

Cut the dead stump into two pieces with an axe, and use it as a stool for Lord Di and Lord Song to sit on.

Others set up clay pots on the fire and boiled the water of the stream.

Di Ying's eyes rolled.
