Yuma County is close to Fucheng and is a rich county.

There are many buildings in this county, the streets of the inner city are wide and bright, and there are diversion ditches on the side of the road, when the snow melts into the ditch, the water will flow into the ditch, protecting the road surface from becoming muddy.

The local post built is quite open and atmospheric, this is a high-walled compound surrounded by five or six buildings, the gate is painted with red paint, and there are shiny door nails on the door panel, and Wang Qilin is a little greedy to see.

His Iron Captain Post House sucks.

However, although the Tiewei Post House was rotten, it managed to maintain its prestige, especially after the open defecation notices were posted at the intersection at both ends, and the whole street became exceptionally clean.

The door of this post house is very chaotic, several men are scolding and scolding at the door, there are a few men persuading, and there are many people standing around to watch the excitement, among which some people are knocking pumpkin seeds to see the excitement.

Wang Qilin shook his head and said, "Let's listen to the Heavenly Prison when he was in Jixiang County, he was simply majestic, how did he become like this when he arrived in Pingyang Mansion?"

The pressure was on him, and he had to regain his power to show off his skills and abilities as a young captain.

Xu Da said: "Zhao Rongsheng is a bad seed, he just let people make a fuss at the door and don't care? If you want me to post a notice directly, who the hell is listening to the loud noise at the gate of the heavenly prison, and one person will deduct a silver baht." ”

"By the way, Seventh Master, the notice of our post house has to be changed, and the fine for defecating is too high. ”

"What's the matter, can anyone not pay the money?" Wang Qilin asked.

Xu Da said: "The big guys can't afford to pay, so no one dares to and pee on our territory, so I wonder if we should pay a lower fine, it's almost the New Year, and we have to find a way to make some money to buy New Year's goods." ”

Wang Qilin was stunned, is this unscrupulous for the sake of generating income?

The two of them chatted casually and squeezed into the crowd, and then they were stunned together:

The man who was making a fuss at the door of the post house turned out to be an acquaintance, it was Huang Junzi and his group who were rescued from the prison cell in Fucheng just now!

Now the happiest person is the man named Han Er, he banged on the door and shouted: "The surname is Zhao, do you dare to steal people and dare not open the door? Open the door to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is going to fight with you, a stinky and shameless ......."

He scolded for a while and suddenly began to roll on the ground again: "I'm not alive anymore, woo woo woo, my mother-in-law let people sleep! That's what let this Zhao Rongsheng sleep, he slept with my mother-in-law, God, they bully fools!"

After scolding for a while, he got up and slammed into the door: "Leave me alone, let me die, I'm a fool, you all bully me! You all bully me, you surnamed Zhao, listen, Lao Tzu will not let you go when he dies and becomes a ghost!"

A young man with two mustaches persuaded: "Second brother, you have to be calm, you have to be calm, listening to the heavenly prison is to catch ghosts, if you become a ghost after death and come to find someone, aren't you looking for death......?"

"Carrying a dung basket around the streets, looking for death!" Xu Da said with a smile.

Hearing this, the few people who were making a fuss turned their heads angrily, and the anger in their hearts suddenly turned to joy after seeing Wang Qilin.

Master Lu, who had two mustaches, pulled Han Er in surprise and said, "Don't make trouble, the seventh master is here." ”

Han Er was too deep into the play, he wiped a handful of snot and tears on Lu Shi's body, and was still crying: "I want my daughter-in-law! My daughter-in-law can't cuckold me! Zhao Rongsheng, you are not a person, you bully a fool, you seduce a fool's daughter-in-law, God, open your eyes......"

Lu Shi is really loveless:

I think I was a dignified disciple of the Fushi Academy, how high-spirited and suave I was back then, why am I mixed up with a group of fools now?

God has no eyes!

Wang Qilin roughly guessed what was going on, he stepped forward and asked, "Master Lu, do you know that Huang Junzi is locked up here?"

Lu Shi pushed away Han Er and saluted with his fists, and said, "Yes, we have definite news that my son-in-law is locked up in this post house." We also have news that the adults in this post house want to send my son-in-law to a secret place, and we can't let them send people away, so we can only take this strategy to prevent them from going out. ”

Wang Qilin frowned and said: "Sure enough, it's the next policy, even if Zhao Rongsheng is a worm, if you encounter the arrogant Heavenly Prison Great Seal, all such a fuss has been arrested!"

Master Lu sneered: "Naturally, we first inquired about the behavior of the Great Seal here, and then we dared to come to the door. Besides, he really slept with a woman we were looking for, and we took advantage of it. ”

Han Er shouted: "He sleeps with my daughter-in-law, sleeps with my mother-in-law, my lord, please administer justice to me!"

Lu Shi said impatiently: "How can you have a daughter-in-law?"

Han Er was stunned and stupid.

There were officials in the crowd of onlookers, and the officials were watching the excitement with water and fire sticks.

Seeing this, Wang Qilin probably understood the plan of Lu Shi and others.

Yuma County listened to the heavenly prison and the Wu clan did not deal with it, and Zhao Rongsheng was severely suppressed by the Wu clan and the county yamen, so if Zhao Rongsheng really seduced the married woman, then with his power, he could not cover the sky in Yuma County.

Lu Shi and others used this to make him throw a rat bogey:

Listen to the great seal of the heavenly prison to seduce a married woman, and the yamen can ignore it.

But if the woman's husband's family comes to the door, and the big seal takes action against these people, then it is considered a bully, and the yamen can make some trouble with it.

But Wang Qilin was still surprised, he said: "What kind of insects are the Heavenly Prison in Yuma County? None of the You Xing and Lux in it can fight? They don't know how to find some bastards from the outside to deal with you?"

Han Er smiled and said, "Aren't our brothers just bastards?"

Wang Qilin gave him a thumbs up, you're great.

As soon as Lu Shi saw that he was coming, he suddenly became confident, and now he didn't need any conspiracy, and went directly to Yang Mou: "Knock open the door for me, and let the Seventh Master vent his anger to our son!"

Han Er hit it sideways, but the gate was tight, and he was too anxious to do it, and planted a melon seed on the gate:

"Bang dang!"

With a muffled sound, Han Er fell to the ground softly......

Jiuliu and Eight Meow glanced at each other: What kind of routine is this? Have you ever practiced iron head skills?

Lu Shi was angry.

He felt very embarrassed, and hurriedly gave the people around him a look and dragged Han Er away.

The onlookers didn't know why they were excited, and they shouted one after another: "Listen to the heavenly prison and force people to die!"

"The official robbed the people's wife, and forced the husband to crash the door and die!"

"This man is really bloody, but his head is not bright. ”

Xu Da stepped up and opened the door, and when he saw this, he glared at Han Er with disdain and said, "What level?"

They hurrahed and rushed into the courtyard, where the snow had not yet cleared, and the house was quiet inside and out.

Wang Qilin listened attentively and didn't hear any sound, he frowned and asked, "Master Lu, when you blocked the door, was there anyone inside?"

"It's all inside!" Lu Shi said.

The crow on Xu's shoulders flapped its wings and flew high, piercing into the main house like a black arrow.

"Something is wrong!"

Wang Qilin followed the house quickly, the doors and windows of the room were tightly closed, and there were dozens of people sitting around a extinguished stove, some leaning on chairs, some hugging their knees on chairs, and some squatting on chairs.

They had their mouths open and their expressions varied, some laughing, some glaring, some yawning.

And then motionless.

It's all cold.

The corpse was already stiff.

The crow flew around them, and finally stood on the head of a corpse and looked at Wang Qilin.

A room of corpses in different postures with their mouths open, and a raven standing on top of a corpse......

Xu Da subconsciously gasped, this time it was really a gasp: "It's all dead?"

Lu Shi was stunned, he first looked at the doors and windows in the house, and said: "I know, it's soot poisoning! You may not know that the burning of coal produces a colorless and odorless poisonous gas, and people who inhale this poisonous gas will first be weak, and then gradually die." ”

Wang Qilin said in a deep voice: "You are talking about carbon monoxide poisoning, this is impossible, people want soot poisoning to be carried out in sleep, you look at their posture, they are roasting the stove and chatting enthusiastically, suddenly collectively died!"

"Then what kind of poison did they have?" asked Xu Da.

Wang Qilin shook his head with a gloomy face: "Block the gate of the post house, no matter the officials or the people, you are not allowed to come in!"

The man who came in later was so frightened that his legs were weak when he saw this scene, and Xu Da sneered: "Why do you still rebel with this guts?"

The big man cried out angrily: "I'm not afraid of corpses! I'm afraid of the death of my son!"

The others rushed into the yard and yelled.

Han Er, who had just been awakened by being pinched by the people, suddenly collapsed when he learned that all the people in the post house were dead, and he shouted: "What about Childe? Childe is also dead? Why is this happening! I want to cloak Childe in linen and wear filial piety! Childe is so pitiful, he died without even a descendant!"

The young man next to him wanted to comfort him, he grabbed the young man and said with tears in his eyes: "Lu Juncai, Gongzi likes you the most, and you will be a filial son when he comes out of the funeral, do you know?"

The young man was stunned, this is not easy to accept: if he refuses, he will be scolded by the brothers as cold-blooded and ruthless, and what will his father think if he accepts it?

The officials who were originally responsible for maintaining law and order heard that there were dead people in the post house, and they immediately became anxious, and rushed in one by one.

Wang Qilin threw out his iron lieutenant order and said: "Go and call the head catcher of the city, and close the gate for you, no one is allowed to enter and no one is allowed to leave!"

The head of the official squad got the iron captain's order and pasted it on the knife, and quickly apologized: "Oh!"

In the small prison of the post, Wang Qilin looked for it with a gloomy face, and gradually heard a faint call coming from the ground.

Huang Junzi's voice.

He's not dead!

Wang Qilin heard the sound and left, found a mechanism in the small cell, and after dialing it, the door opened under the cell, revealing a cave.

Huang Junzi was locked up below, dying.

The young Lu Juncai jumped down first and stretched out his hand to try it on his nose, and then breathed a sigh of relief: finally he didn't have to play the role of a filial son and grandson.

After making sure that Huang Junzi was alive, he began to howl bitterly and angrily: "Childe, who tortured you like this? Childe, you hold on, I will call the doctor immediately!"

Huang Junzi reached out and grabbed his clothes, trembling his lips and said, "Uh, uh......"

"Don't talk yet, gather your strength, don't sleep," Wang Qilin also came down, "I've already sent someone to find a doctor." ”

Lu Shi said with concern: "Yes, son, you can't sleep!"

Xu Da said: "If he can't stand it and wants to sleep with his eyes closed, then he must be pumped with a big mouth!"

Huang Junzi saw that everyone was coming and was about to take a breath, and his eyes widened when he heard this.

He said with difficulty: "Hungry, hungry, I'm hungry!"

Wang Qilin suddenly said: "Are you hungry and cold and become like this? Hurry up and boil some hot water!"

A few rough men took a personal ladder diagonally and sent Huang Junzi up in a slippery way.

Seeing this, Wang Qilin was quite surprised, these people were really good to Huang Junzi.

Huang Junzi took a breath after being sent to the yard, he wanted to breathe a breath of fresh air, and then a strong man came and a vicious dog pounced on him, hugged him and cried:

"Childe, you died so miserably! I will avenge you, I will give you linen and filial piety! Lu Juncai, when your son gives you a coffin, you can go with confidence, and we will do a beautiful funeral for you!"

Huang Junzi was so pressed by him that he couldn't catch his breath, and opened his mouth and rolled his eyes.

Han Er looked up to the sky and cried bitterly: "The son will not be blind to death! I want to let the heavenly eunuch return blood for blood!"

Lu Shi couldn't bear it anymore and shook his hand to give him a big mouth.

If they continue to toss it again, they will really send Huang Junzi to the end.

Lu Juncai, a young man, was very clever, he went to the kitchen to boil water first, boiled out the warm water, and then gave Huang Junzi two sips, and chopped some ginger mixed with cabbage hearts to cook some soup.

Even after drinking water and soup, Huang Junzi finally recovered.

Wang Qilin said with admiration: "I underestimated you in the past, but I didn't expect them to torture you so much, and you didn't confess." ”

Huang Junzi was stunned, I wanted to confess, but no one came to force a confession, so I threw people into the dungeon and left them alone, and I didn't have a way to confess if I wanted to.

He couldn't say this, he quietly peeked left and right, and saw his subordinates with tears in their eyes and their faces full of respect.

Seeing this, he said, "Master Lu, help me up." ”

Lu Shi helped him sit up, he took a deep breath and raised his fist and said: "Who has not died in life since ancient times, leave Dan to take care of the sweat!"

The surrounding men were enthusiastic, and Lu Shi said in a deep voice: "Donating your body to go to the country, you will see death as if you were going home!"

The men clenched their fists and beat their chests, their faces full of excitement.

Wang Qilin didn't understand what this group of people meant: What does this have to do with the national disaster? Why did they get excited for some reason?

He shook his head and asked, "Okay, don't be impassioned, Lao Huang, do you know what happened in the post house? ”

Lu Juncai said angrily: "This is called the wicked have their own harvest!"

Han Er asked, "Aren't we evildoers?"

Huang Junzi didn't know about all the deaths in the post house, and he said with a blank face that no one would take care of him after he was thrown into the dungeon, and he thought that the Heavenly Prison wanted to starve him, freeze him, and die of thirst.

Wang Qilin asked Lu Shi again: "How do you know that Lao Huang is being locked up in this post house?"

He still found the child in the Sanxing Temple by chance, and used his body as a bait to lure out the corpse and chat with the ghost, and then he found Huang Junzi step by step.

You must know that it took him a lot of effort and brain power to learn the news, it stands to reason that Huang Junzi and his entourage except for Lu Shi have a little brain, the others are all humanoid mallets, and it is impossible for them to find out Huang Junzi's location.

Lu Shi smiled bitterly and said, "Seventh Master, I'll tell you the truth, you definitely don't believe it!"

How is this sentence again?

Wang Qilin only heard this from the ghost in the morning, and when he heard it again, he was impatient: "Say!"

"Dreaming!" Lu Shi said, "Someone told me in a dream that Huang Gongzi was captured by the Heavenly Prison of Yuma County and locked up in the post house. ”

Wang Qilin frowned: "Then you believe it?"

Lu Shi said with a solemn face: "I can't believe it, because all of us achieved this dream that night, even the stupid second who has never dreamed dreamed of it." ”

Han Er said unhappily: "This is a bit insulting. ”

Hearing that the Tianjian Post Office was full of people, this was a big and important case, and the Wufang Mansion of Yuma County Magistrate County was taken aback, and personally led people to hurry over.

After entering the door, he saluted Wang Qilin, Wang Qilin waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, quickly send a servant to find out the cause of death of these people for me!"

Wu Fangzhai hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials will personally supervise it, so let them conduct an autopsy." ”

The main house was closed and used as a morgue for the time being.

Soon Wu Fangzhai hurriedly came to Wang Qilin, he beckoned, Wang Qilin went out and asked, "Find out the reason so quickly?"

"No, Lord Wang," Wu Fangzhai said in a low voice, "Without Zhao Rongsheng, there are a total of thirty-one corpses, including twenty-one people such as Xiaoyin, Youxing and Lux in the city, and ten people such as grooms, cooks, cooks, and porters, these people are complete, but there is no Zhao Rongsheng!"

Wang Qilin frowned and nodded.

This case is strange at every turn.

And it happened too abruptly, in fact, he hasn't changed his thinking until now.

He felt a little unreal, more than 30 people in a post house, and it was just gone?

That's impossible!

So he hopes that Zhao Rongsheng will not die, he must live, he must know something, this information must be very important!

Wu Fangzhai said in a low voice: "This group of people has been making trouble in front of the post house for two days, and they have been making trouble since yesterday, and the lower officials think that this case may be related to them, and it is best to take them down together." ”

Wang Qilin waved his hand and said: "The official of the case is responsible, and this group of people and the official understand that they can't do such a serious case." And the judge will keep an eye on them, and if they are related to the case, the judge will not miss the evidence. ”

Hearing him say this, Wu Fang Zhai bowed and retired.

Wang Qilin said to Xu Da: "Release the dark crow to send a letter to Lord Taiba, and release the green worm to Lord Zhao, we have a big job again." ”

Originally, he was going to go down to the county to go from county to county, to feel the real situation of Tingtianjian in Pingyang Mansion, and to enhance his control over Tingtianjian.

As a result, this is the first county, and such a serious case occurred.

Wang Qilin must find out the truth, otherwise he doesn't have to continue his visit, because his official fortunes are over.

A post house was collectively wiped out, even if Li Changge appreciated him, he couldn't protect him.

As a superior, he has an unshirkable responsibility.

And even if he is not the direct official of this post office, he has to investigate this case.

Thirty-one people, just so inexplicably died.

Thirty-one families are so inexplicably broken.

He will not allow it!

After a while, Wu Fangzhai walked briskly again, and he said in a low voice: "I opened six corpses, and I can't see anything on my face, and my body has dried up!"

Wang Qilin was taken aback: "The body is dry, what's going on?"

Wu Fang Zhai shook his head heavily.

He whispered as usual: "It's like a sun-dried fruit, as if the water in the body has been squeezed dry, and it's like it is rumored that some female demons have exhausted Yuanyang, may I ask Lord Wang, what kind of ghosts and demons are doing this?"

Wang Qilin said with a gloomy face: "Half of the corpse is autopsied, and the other half is not moving." ”

He went to find Xu Da and said, "Leave Ma Ming to lead a team of brothers to guard the city, and the others will all be mobilized for me!"
