Yao Shaoyin, who had just finished searching a room and walked out, was stunned when he saw this, "Jiang Erlang, what are you doing?!" ”

At this time, Jiang Yu had climbed to the top of the persimmon tree, he supported the trunk with one hand, and looked at the roof opposite the persimmon tree with a pair of dark fox eyes, took a light breath, and said in a deep voice: "On the roof, there are footprints." ”

Everyone was stunned.

Although the snow in Master Xuanyin's courtyard was cleaned up, the snow on the roof was not.

Unless the snow is very thick, few people will go up to the roof to clear the snow, after all, the snow on the roof is not visible to ordinary people, and it does not affect people's daily activities.

Yao Shaoyin hurriedly called a servant next to him and asked him to go up to have a look, and the servant quickly climbed the tree and said loudly: "Yao Shaoyin, really, there is a string of footprints on the roof!" That trail of footprints has been ...... All the way to the other side of the house! ”

Yao Shaoyin immediately turned to Miao Lian and Jing Lian, who were also a little stunned beside him, and said sharply: "Opposite this room, what kind of place!" ”

Miao Lian snorted and stammered, "That, that's the back kitchen......"

When Yao Shaoyin heard this, he said loudly to the official on the tree: "You follow the footprints, we will go around to the opposite side now, and you can see where the footprints finally stopped!" ”

After saying that, I couldn't wait to go out.

Xu Jing also followed.

The left side of Master Xuanyin's courtyard was indeed the back kitchen, but Xu Jing and the others walked through the back kitchen and walked to a small open space behind the back kitchen before they heard the voice of the official overhead, "Yao Shaoyin, Xu Niangzi!" ”

When they looked up, they saw the official standing on the roof beside him, and when he looked left and right, he saw that there was also a bare tree next to the clearing.

He climbed down the tree very easily, and said, "The man who walked on the roof has come here at last, and she must have come down this tree!" Moreover, if she came over like this, she could also observe in advance whether there was anyone here, and if there was someone, she could wait for him to leave before coming down.

Most people would never have thought that someone would come up here from the rooftop! ”

And who will walk on the roof, who else but Master Xuanyin!

Xu Jing said: "From the case of Sister-in-law Wu, we can know that the murderer must have a certain skill, otherwise it would be difficult for her to climb the sycamore tree with a person on her back, go to the roof, and then come down from the roof so smoothly."

Here, there must be a place where the murderer used to hide things, it is likely to be a dark room, let's find it separately! ”

But I saw that this place was a small square open space, except for the lawn and trees planted around it, and there was only one well in the middle.

It should be the place where the kitchen is used to get water.

The snow here has basically been swept away.

Because it is behind the back kitchen, ordinary people rarely come here, and even if they are people in the back kitchen, they usually come here to get water and leave.

It's the perfect place to hide a dark room!

When the officials saw that the case had progressed, they were all shocked and scattered to start looking for the dark room.

Yao Shaoyin took advantage of this time to summon a servant and asked him to bring Master Xuanyin here.

Suddenly, a servant said in a loud voice: "Yao Shaoyin, Xu Niangzi, come and take a look, there is a very weird-looking stone here!" ”

Xu Jing and Yao Shaoyin walked over quickly, and saw that on the flat ground in the upper left corner of this clearing, there was indeed a stone that looked like it had gone through wind and frost, and the stone was not small, so that a five or six-year-old child could lie flat on it.

It is indeed strange that such a stone appeared suddenly in this place.

When they came, because they passed through the back kitchen, many little nuns who were preparing dinner in the back kitchen also followed, and when they saw this, one of the little nuns hurriedly said, "That stone can't be moved!" Legend has it that when the temple was first built, wild beasts often ran in the surrounding woods and wreaked havoc, and the first presiding officer personally put a stone that she had opened here, and no wild beasts ran in after that......

Xu Jing couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

The more this happens, the more suspicious the stone becomes.

She glanced at the little nun and whispered to the officials around her, "Move this stone away immediately!" ”

Little nun: "!! ”

How can this group of people be so unreasonable! The more you tell them not to move, the more they move!

However, several officials tried together to remove the stone, but they could not move the stone in the slightest.

Xu Jing's eyes were slightly dark, and he was right, although because of that legend, ordinary disciples would not move this stone without permission, it was difficult to guarantee that there would not be a rebellious among these disciples.

If the entrance to the dark room is indeed under this stone, and other people can find the dark room by casually moving this stone, this dark room is too insecure.

She immediately looked left and right at the environment around this stone, and Yao Shaoyin on the side couldn't help but say, "If we really can't move this stone, what should we do?" ”

Xu Jing didn't look at him, and said, "Then let's dig it directly." ”

Yao Shaoyin: "......"

Indeed, his brain is really rusty today, and he can't even think of such a simple question.

If there is really a dark room hidden underneath here, where do they need to really enter through the entrance, just dig out the dark room!

However, if they do so, their workload will be greatly increased, and they may also destroy the contents of the darkroom.

Of course, it would be best if you could get in through the entrance.

Yao Shaoyin hadn't finished thinking about it, but he heard Xu Jing on the side chuckle and said, "However, it seems that we don't have to spend so much effort." ”

Yao Shaoyin was slightly stunned, and saw Xu Jingzheng looking up at the wall next to the stone, stretched out his hand and pointed to a certain place: "Look, there is a wall there that is darker than the color of other walls." ”

This wall is gray, and the color of the place Xu Jing is pointing to is not very different from other places, but if you identify it carefully, you can still see a slight difference.

It's just that......

Yao Shaoyin was a little stunned, "That place is too high, it's almost to the roof, who has such a tall height to touch there?" ”

"That's why it's safe to set up the opening in that place."

Xu Jing said lightly: "Don't forget, the murderer has a rope with a hook on his hand, and it couldn't be easier to go up to such a wall." ”

Yao Shaoyin was stunned for a moment, and immediately called two tall officials, and let one of them rest on the shoulder of the other, and finally touched the wall.

Under everyone's gaze, he reached out and pressed it, but nothing happened.

Xu Jing's eyes were slightly dark, and he suddenly raised his voice and said, "Stronger!" ”

The official was startled, and hurriedly pressed it hard......

The eyes of the group of people who were looking up suddenly widened.

That wall, it's sunken!

Before everyone could recover from this shock, there was a sudden sound of a subtle wheel shaft turning next to him, Yao Shaoyin subconsciously turned his head and couldn't help but gasp.

I saw that the stone beside him, which could not be moved, was slowly lifted up as if it was being carried by something.
