The two palanquin men of the Liu family had already run back to Xitang Town, and the chief steward of the family saw that the matter was very important, and hurriedly led the two to report to Liu Juren in person:

"The master is not good, the eldest young master was killed in the middle of the way, and the money steward is also dead!"

“…… What! Make it clear! "Liu Juren is still entertaining, and it is their county lord of Xizhi County who is entertaining.

Hearing such bad news, Liu Juren first stood up in disbelief and asked the two palanquin men loudly.

The sedan chair man knelt on the ground and talked about the encounter on the road, Liu Juren listened, only felt dizzy and unsteady on his feet.

Xizhi County Zun hurriedly supported him, at this time he was also very angry in his heart, their Xizhi County public security evaluation has always been excellent, and now there is a big case, and the death is still the court's showman, if the case cannot be solved, this year's evaluation will be bad, which will have a great impact on his official career!

"Can you two see the face of the strongman?"

"I told my lord, I didn't see it clearly."

"What! Killed your young master, and you two fled without even looking at it? Like such a slave ......"

"......" the palanquin man hurriedly said: "That person is wrapped in clothes, so he can't see his face clearly!" ”

"Oh, report this person's height and peculiarity one by one!"

“…… Be! ”

Xizhi County Zun first appeased Liu Juren a few words, and did not say much, while sending people to the county seat to call for arrest and pretend, while leading the accompanying county soldiers to immediately rush to the scene of the crime.

Liu Juren also brought a large number of family members and went together.

Not long after, the magistrate and the mayor of Xitang Town also rushed to hear the news, and everyone was in one place, with great momentum, and rushed together.

When I arrived at the location, there were already many passers-by around, pointing at the distance:

"I heard that it was the young man of the Liu family who died, this person is rampant in the township, and retribution is coming!"

"Can't be wrong, the green sedan chair in Xitang Town is only available to the Liu family, to say that Master Liu is also reasonable, but Liu Dashao ...... Gee! ”

"Liu Dashao is so arrogant, isn't it the connivance of Master Liu? If you want me to say ......"

Here, Xizhi County Zun has already asked people to ask those who are passing by, whether they have seen any suspicious people, and they all said no, but they have heard a lot of bad comments from the Liu family.

Xizhi County Zun had doubts in his heart about whether it was a vendetta.

Xizhi County Zun first checked the surrounding traces, but it was impossible to escape his eyes, he also created the eye of the heroic spirit, and he was known as the judge master.

In front of Liu Juren, Xizhi County said: "Look at the traces here, there is only one person who came, and after killing someone, he seized the money, and then went straight to the forest......"

I followed the traces all the way, and soon arrived at the Xitang River, where I saw the ashes of the burned clothes and the traces of this severance, and Xizhi County Zun had a new speculation:

"This person came prepared, and he had already thought of a way out...... I don't think it's like a passing strongman will do a vote at will, it may be for Liu Gongzi. ”

"Brother Liu, has Young Master Liu made a feud with anyone recently?"

Liu Juren shook his head at first, preoccupied.

In Xitang Town, it has always been their Liufu who bullied people, and he knew that Liu Shaoyuan was arrogant, and it was difficult to say clearly whether he had a grudge or not.

But after so many years, the people in the town can still get by, what kind of courage do the countrymen have, they can endure it yesterday, and they can't bear it today?

Who is so ruthless to come and kill his son!

Liu Juren thought of Sun Youtian's family, who came to the door the day before yesterday, but Sun Youtian didn't even dare to ask his family to compensate, did he have the courage to kill?

Although thinking of this, Liu Juren still said:

"If you want to talk about enmity, a few days ago, the dog went to the countryside to collect rent, but there was a conflict with a farmer, and there was a lot of trouble, no matter how much you want to say, but there is nothing."

"Oh, you can pass that farmer." When Xizhi County Zun heard that it was a farmer's family, he didn't have expectations, but he also wanted to be arraigned.

He didn't delay here: "The murderer has been prepared for a long time, and he has destroyed a lot of evidence, and the traces have been cleared, and it is difficult to track it for a while. However, Skynet is restored, this person killed the imperial court, the crime is extremely evil, and the national fortune is not tolerated! I will immediately go back to the Xizhi Yamen, and ask the county to enter the national fortune to see what is going on! ”

Liu Juren hurriedly said: "Please go quickly, I should cooperate with this matter!" ”

Xizhi County Zun nodded, the county's work and arrest will come soon, and they will naturally conduct autopsies and investigations, and they are not necessarily worse than him.

And he rode fast and non-stop, and went back to Xizhi County Ya, and immediately invited the county to honor the big seal and hook up the national fortune.

The county Zun has authority, and at this time, Xizhi County Zun states the facts of the case, and he can communicate with the remnant soul of Liu Shaoyuan, who was protected by the national fortune, and ask who killed him, and it is very clear to ask the victim about this matter.

Unexpectedly, Liu Shaoyuan was called several times, but there was no movement, and when I checked it again, it was actually the remnant soul of Liu Shaoyuan!

Xizhi County Zun was surprised for a while, Liu Shaoyuan was a talent in the imperial court, even if he was killed, the national fortune would protect his soul and soul, and he would not die in a daze.

Even if someone outside the world forcibly kills the soul, it will definitely alarm the national fortune and make a record, what happened to their Xizhi County will immediately alarm the parents and officials here, that is, him, the Xizhi County Zun, which makes him vigilant.

Now, however, there is no movement.

Xizhi County Zun was also puzzled for a while, and was shocked.

Such a strange thing, there must be other traces in the national fortune, but it is a pity that he does not have enough authority for a county to see more.

Who killed Liu Shaoyuan?

Xizhi County Zun kept guessing in his heart that those who could disperse Liu Shaoyuan's remnant soul must be able to use heroic spirits or yin spirits.

And the people in the court, even if they are the prime ministers of the dynasty, killing Xiucai privately is not tolerated by the country's fortunes, and the backlash is very serious, at least the crime is lost, and the heroic soul is destroyed, who is willing to kill an unknown Xiucai, and is willing to take such a strange risk and ruin the things before and after?

Besides, Liu Shaoyuan, a talented talent, may not even have the qualifications to offend the court officials who shape the heroic spirit.

According to common sense, the people in the court were excluded first.

Or maybe some mountain spirit and wild monster came down the mountain to cause trouble, it was also possible, but looking at that guy's preparation and delicate mind, it didn't look like it.

The biggest suspicion is people outside the world, many of these people are willful heroes, it can also be said that they are lawless and lawless, and it is not wrong to call them demons, and it is not a big deal for them to kill a showman...... In this way, most of them should be tired of repeat offenders and wanted people.

Xizhi County Zun looked at the recent increase in the number of people who were wanted by the National Games, or the targets whose merits had been improved, were all suspected.

For a while, there were many more suspicious targets, and Xizhi County Zun screened it, and at the same time, it was already the public security officer, ready to start a county crackdown, and secretly hunted out the outsiders who had recently appeared in Xizhi County.

It didn't take long for the catchers and servants who went to Xitang Town to return and report the latest situation.

Naturally, he didn't catch it, but he analyzed Liu Shaoyuan's physical condition and came to the conclusion:

"The murderer's methods are savage, and he should have the power of a thousand catties to split his skull with one punch."

Catch quickly said: "This person must have practiced the kung fu in his hands, penetrating the sedan chair surface like broken paper, easily grabbed Liu Shaoyuan's entourage Qian San, and pinched it to death." ”

"This person should have more than thirty years of skill, if he is a Jiangyang thief, he must be a famous person!"

Xizhi County Zun was noncommittal about this judgment, but he also ordered: "Strict investigation!" ”

After a short time, a painter came, and according to the descriptions of all parties, drew a person wrapped in clothes, and then sent a sea fishing document:

"The man in the skull and the clothes are robbed and killed by the court, and the crime is extremely evil...... Anyone who has clues will report to the government, and once it is verified, there will be a reward! Those who have the courage to capture and kill this fang will be rewarded! ”

The sea fishing documents were sent to Xitang Town in a few days and posted on the notice board of the town office, attracting people from Xitang Town to watch and discuss.

Meng Xing was also in the crowd, listening to the people talking about Liu Shaoyuan and the Liu family, they all said that retribution was coming.

Meng Xing was very bold and was ready to stay in Xitang Town for a few more days to see how the Liu family reacted.

At this time, in Xitang Town, there were county soldiers patrolling back and forth from time to time, and there were clear and secret sentries everywhere, and the three sects and nine streams were mobilized, running back and forth on the streets, looking for suspicious people.

These were all reflected in Meng Xing's heart, and he avoided them intentionally or unintentionally.

However, the activity is here, there is always a situation that cannot be avoided, and when he returns to the guest house, Meng Xing is also difficult to be subjected to a round of cross-examination.

Meng Xing took out the road guide, which had his place of origin, name, and what he did when he came out, and it was written that he was going to the capital to study.

After a county, where did the official know who he was Meng Xing, he looked at the road and introduced the goods, and he was a scholar who traveled to study, so he let it go gently, and specially reminded:

"If you've seen someone suspicious recently, you must report it to the government!"

"Okay."

"The murderer is a skull-splitting man, extremely cruel, distorted by nature, and loves to kill scholars and talents the most! Childe can't be careless, it's best not to walk around recently! ”

“…… Got it. ”

The room was still checking, and suddenly there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping outside the guest house, and someone shouted loudly:

"There's a Jiangyang thief hiding here, I think this person is the most suspicious!"

“……”

The nearby county soldiers hurriedly rushed over, followed by the sound of blades intersecting, and the sound of scolding!

The travelers in the guest house all went out to watch, and Meng Xing also probed his brain, only to see that the officers and soldiers in the field advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, cooperated tacitly, and attacked around a big man:

"Zuo Buyi! You disguised yourself as a split-skull man, attacked and killed Liu Xiucai, and today you were caught by us and others, and you dare to quibble! ”

The big man is already extremely angry, the left sentence is patient, and the right sentence is Li Nai's:

"What kind of skull-clad man, I've never heard of it, and it's ugly! You dogs, why do you slander people's innocence with empty mouths! ”

"Lao Tzu's eyes are rulers, his body shape is almost the same, and his clothes are not bad at all! It's not who you are! ”

Hearing this, Meng Xing hurriedly looked at his figure, he was really similar to this person, which showed that the person who tracked down this case really had some skills.

He was also vigilant in his heart, and Zuo Buyi was already overwhelmed in the face of the siege, and suddenly "Wua" burst out of bravery, was beaten a few feet hard, rushed out of the encirclement with his head covered, and rushed in the direction of the guest house with a knife:

"Death to those who stand in my way!"

"Stop him!"

The people who watched the excitement were all startled and avoided one after another, but Meng Xing peeked closer, and suddenly stretched out his feet and stumbled.

Zuo Buyi only felt a kick on the stone pillar, fell to the ground with a wow, and fell to the ground.

"Good scholar!"

The officials behind him were overjoyed and pounced, pressing him to the ground, Zuo Buyi couldn't struggle, turned his head and shouted: "That scholar, I remember you!" ”

"Hehe......" Meng Xing smiled at him, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "This person is so fierce, he must be a person who splits his skull." ”

“……”

The leading officers and soldiers came to see Meng Xing: "The scholar is really courageous. ”

"I wait for scholars to study and study, and we have the heart to serve the country, and when I see someone to capture the bandits, it is nothing to help."

"Haha! Both civil and military, it is indeed the style of a reader! Little brother, capture this person today, and we all accept your love......"

Meng Xing laughed: "My lord, first arrest this person back and hand him over, so as not to delay his official business." ”

"Okay, little brother, I'll go to the errand first, and I'll come back to you later!"
