Xu Taiping and Cao Xin went toe-to-toe and did not show weakness to each other.

The atmosphere is getting tense.

Xu Taiping was pondering Cao Xin's motives and thoughts in his heart.

The surname Cao is a member of the Tianxia Gang, and he will definitely not dare to show his banner to rebel, so he threatens to threaten me, a little catcher.

I could only threaten the villagers of Xiaowang Village with coercion.

Is this a threat?

Calculate.

It doesn't count.

I'm a head catcher anyway, if I'm just being pinched like this, then it's still a god catch.

However, I also had to accept Cao Xin's threats.

Fishing.

Let the fish taste some sweetness first.

Let the fish think they are fishermen.

Let the surnamed Cao think that he has pinched my headcatcher.

Let the surname Cao be proud for a while.

On a cloud.

I'm going to see what the guy surnamed Cao will do after he gets carried away.

When tensions are about to spiral out of control.

Xu Taiping suddenly laughed.

Reach out your big hand.

A pat on the small box, hugged it, opened it, and glanced at it.

Ooh!

A box full of silver ingots.

It's all five taels one.

The silver shines and catches the heart.

Ten on the first floor, two layers on the upper and lower levels, a total of one hundred taels.

Trench!

What a trench!

is just upright, and he can come up with so much silver.

This surname Cao is really black.

You can't get so much silver if it's not dark.

However, it can also prove that the surname Cao is empty-hearted.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be so generous.

Thinking so, he covered the box, hugged it directly in his arms, and said with a smile: "I have long heard that Cao Baozheng of Xiaowang Village is a bold man. ”

Cao Xin also breathed a sigh of relief, and arched his hand with a smile on his face: "Xu Shenzhu is also shrewd and capable, and the name of Shenzhu is worthy of the name." ”

"What gods catch or can't catch depends on the people's praise."

"Hey, the cases solved are all real."

"Solve the case, that's it, it's man-made, just get by on the surface."

"Hahahaha, Xu Ye is really proficient in human affairs," Cao Xin squeezed his eyebrows: "Come on, come on, drink tea and drink tea." ”

"Cao Baozheng, please."

Tea over three rounds.

Cao Xin seemed to ask casually: "Master Xu, how are you going to investigate the case a year ago?" ”

"No clue."

"Oh?"

"I still have to rely on Cao Baozheng."

"Didn't you say there were new clues?"

"Yes, but it's still a lot worse, but it's not enough to rely on that one clue."

Cao Xin narrowed his eyes: "Master Xu, if you say that, you are still far from solving the case." ”

Xu Taiping sighed heavily, with a sad face: "Who said it wasn't, to be honest, Cao Baozheng, I really don't want to take this case, but there is no way, the county master has opened his mouth, I am such a small catcher, I can only go once." ”

Cao Xin echoed: "Doing things under people's hands is not like this, you can't help yourself." ”

"So, does Cao Baozheng have any good suggestions?"

"This ......"

Cao Baozheng said.

Cao Xin gritted his teeth and lowered his voice: "Master Xu, according to me, just find a scapegoat and send it to you." ”

"Scapegoat?"

"Yes, it's all done like this, no matter what means are used, as long as the person is recruited, signed and confessed, the dossier is reasonable, especially in our village......"

When Cao Xin said this, his face showed sadness: "To put it mildly, everyone is dying, who cares what to solve the case or not, life is more important than anything else."

"Investigating the case? What if you anger the murderer and kill the rest?

"At that time, what if the murderer is caught with a thousand cuts?

"Can dead villagers come back to life?

"Can't!

"Got it?

"The remaining fifty or sixty people in Xiaowang Village now just want to live in peace and stability, passing on their ancestors and multiplying from generation to generation, instead of risking the destruction of the village to track down the murderer."

Cao Xin said a lot in one breath.

also wiped the corners of his eyes: "Master Xu, you can understand my distress now, right?" ”

Xu Taiping secretly sneered.

Difficulties?

You've got a bullshit wretch.

You live in a big villa.

Wives and concubines are full of children and grandchildren, and they are still the altar masters of the world's gang, they can kill whoever they want, and they live like the emperor, and they have a fart hardship.

Unwilling to track down the killer?

Of course you don't want to step on a horse.

Because you are the murderer or one of the murderers.

At least an informed person or participant.

The tragedy of Xiaowang Village, the eight achievements are the handiwork of the world's gang.

I cursed in my heart.

His face showed a look of affection: "It's not what's wrong, Shangguan said a word, the villain broke his leg, this is fate." ”

Between words.

The maid quietly approached: "Master, lunch has been prepared." ”

Cao Xin got up and made a gesture of invitation to Xu Taiping: "Master Xu, try the special dishes of Xiaowang Village, which are not precious, but they also have a flavor." ”

"Please."

The dish is indeed a good dish.

And the wine is also good wine.

However, Xu Taiping didn't drink much, no matter how Cao Xin persuaded him, he only drank three cups.

Eat and drink to your heart's content.

Xu Taiping said to Cao Xin: "Cao Baozheng, where are all the villagers who died tragically a year ago buried?" ”

"Their ancestral graves."

"I'd like to check it out."

"Do you want to open the coffin for an autopsy?"

"Not really."

"Without an autopsy, what's so nice about a group of tombs?"

"It's all here, it's impossible to say if you don't look at it."

Cao Xin shook his head: "Master Xu, forget it, as soon as you show up, the villagers will inevitably feel sad, according to me, you can catch a scapegoat and go back directly." ”

Xu Taiping frowned: "In a hurry, where can I find this scapegoat?" You can't just catch a common person, right? ”

"No way?"

"No, even if you are not a monk, you have to be the kind of folk alien who has mastered some secret arts, or demons and monsters, so that you can have an explanation."

"It's hard to find this kind of person."

"Anyway, you can't just catch an ordinary person, wouldn't that be fooling the county magistrate?"

Cao Xin frowned and thought for a moment.

Suddenly slapped his thigh: "There really is such a person." ”

"Yes?"

"Yes, on the mountain at the junction of Xiaowang Village and Zhangjiagou, there is a Taoist temple, there is a mysterious old Taoist priest in the Taoist hall, the old Taoist priest will point illusions, and often go down the mountain to bewitch and tease the people, Xu Ye, you take people up the mountain, surround the Taoist temple, and arrest people directly, it is best to kill them on the spot, and then copy the Taoist temple to take the evidence back, and the county master can't find fault with it."

When Cao Xin said this, he said with a smile: "A Confucian and Taoist monk like the county lord hates monks and Taoists the most, even if he finds something wrong, he will pretend not to find it and make this case an iron case." ”

When Xu Taiping heard this, he applauded and laughed loudly: "Wonderful, Cao Baozheng is amazing!" ”

Cao Xin said with a smile: "Xu Ye is a martial arts monk who is serious, and there are a few fast brothers to help, besiege and kill an old Taoist priest who can only use a little illusion, and he will be caught." ”

"The old Taoist priest is in Guanli now?"

"Yes, almost every day, I went down the mountain yesterday to buy some rice and grain, and I won't go down the mountain again in the next half a month."

Xu Taiping got up: "Thank you Cao Baozheng for entertaining, Xu will summon his subordinates to climb the mountain." ”

"Xu Ye is polite."

"By the way, Cao Baozheng, please take care of Wang Ruiniang's girl, she is alone and prone to accidents."

"Hehe, Xu Ye has a crush on her?"

"No, no, it's just a little bit of an eye, just help him."

"I understand, I understand, if Xu Ye doesn't say that I will take good care of her, no matter what her father is, her line is my Cao Xin's great benefactor, if it weren't for her grandfather, I Cao Xin wouldn't be this Baozheng."

"That's good."

Xu Taiping got up with the silver and left.

Out.

Whistle blowing.

Summoned Zheng Bowen and others, followed the direction pointed by Cao Xin, and went straight to the Taoist temple.

Cao Xin watched Xu Taiping and others leave at the door of his house.

His face gradually became gloomy, and he beckoned.

Wang Rusong trotted to him, bowed his head and bowed his waist: "Altar master, what do you command?" ”

Cao Xin's face was grim: "Go to the township, find Wang Xuanzhu, and let him kill someone again!" ”

"Kill whom?"

"Wang Ruiniang!"

"Altar Master?"

"That must not fall into the hands of Xu Taiping!"

"But ......"

"No, but, it's better to kill by mistake than to let go, what if she knows something and tells Xu Taiping? The owner of this altar must ensure that the whole plan is foolproof, otherwise, the incense master will blame it, and you and I will not end well! ”
