Chapter 64: To Each His Own Heart (Part 2)
The action of catching fast is fast.
After their visits, all the activities witnessed by the four of them in the past ten days had been recorded that night.
"The deceased one, a villager from Xiaohe Village, named Wang Wei, 21 years old, was a scholar, with a reputation for childhood, and had been studying at home for the past ten days, during which he went out to visit friends, left home in the afternoon of the same day, and returned at noon the next day. ”
"The second deceased, a villager from Xiaohe Village, named Li Dayou, 31 years old, a hunter, has often hunted in the mountains for the past ten days, and sometimes lives in the mountains and forests, and only once went into the city to buy daily necessities. ”
"The third deceased, a villager from Xiaohe Village, named Gongchenghua, 26 years old, a martial artist, crisscrossing the township, is a local Ren Xia, in the last ten days before his death, he went out to party with friends many times, and the last time was to drink all night with his friends and died at home. ”
"The fourth deceased, a villager from Xiaohe Village, named Jin Dacheng, 24 years old, a friend of Gongchenghua, died together. ”
Li Ding gave a general report on the news he received.
Gu Changan looked at the visit record in his hand, listened to Li Ding's report again, and showed a deep expression, and after a long time, he said: "Did Gongchenghua and Jin Dacheng go out before they died? In other words, did they just come back from outside before they drank all night?"
"Not bad!"
Li Ding nodded and said.
Gu Changan bowed slightly, and had a faint guess.
"Did you find something?"
Looking at Gu Changan's expression, Li Ding couldn't help but ask curiously.
"It's a bit of speculation, but it needs to be verified......"
Speaking of this, Gu Changan suddenly raised his head, looked at Li Ding, and said: "At present, it can only be known from the interview materials in hand that the four deceased have no other relationship except in a village, and since they died on the same day, there must be some connection." ”
"I noticed that in these materials, all four of them had gone out, the scholar Wang Wei was out to visit friends, the hunter Li Dayou went to the city to buy daily necessities, and Gongchenghua and Jin Dacheng returned from other places to drink, in other words, they all came back from outside before they died...... Dare to ask Li Inspector, how many roads are there to go out of Xiaohe Village, and how many roads are there leading to the county seat?"
"In addition, where did Gongchenghua and Jin Dacheng come back from, and whether their route back to Xiaohe Village overlapped with scholar Wang Wei and Orion Li Dayou, and in the overlapping journey, is there anything weird!"
"I want to ...... If we figure this out, maybe we are not far from the truth and the murderer!"
When he said this, Gu Changan's face suddenly showed a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
It's just that this look is fleeting.
And Li Ding, after hearing this, was stunned at first, and then his face suddenly showed a touch of ecstasy.
After being on an errand in the public gate for so many years, and sitting in the position of inspection, Li Ding is naturally not a layman, and naturally immediately thought of the key.
So he suddenly pressed his waist knife excitedly, and said urgently: "Captain Gu wait a minute, I'll go and ask!"
With that, he turned and ran away.
Gu Changan bowed slightly, looking at the back of the other party leaving, and couldn't help but show a look of interest on his face.
Before his eyes, a line of information appeared.
[Name]: Li Ding
[Identity]: Baisha County Inspection, corpse puppet
[Grade]: Mortal
[Level]: 3rd Flesh Realm
[Attributes]: Qi and blood 34, mana 0, spirit 1
[Talent]: None
[Martial Arts]: Omitted.
......
"The thief shouts to catch the thief......"
Looking at the other party's information, Gu Changan shook his head and smiled.
I have to say that in this game world, NPC information can be regarded as a golden finger - you can check each other's information anytime and anywhere, and the identity camp can be seen at a glance.
This Li Ding, if it weren't for the fact that he could check the identity of the other party, I am afraid that he would have been deceived by his acting skills.
Who would have thought?
On the surface, the inspection of a county town was unknowingly refined into a corpse puppet behind the scenes!
Of course, Gu Changan was not curious about this, he was curious about what the mastermind behind Li Ding who was standing behind him and directing Li Ding had any plans.
From Li Ding's account and the information of these deceased, it can be known that the mastermind behind this scene seems to want to lead them to a certain place.
It's not against him Gu Changan alone, if it was someone else who came today, this person would still do the same.
What is his purpose in doing this?
Is it just to absorb the essence of the martial artist?
"I want to see what the hell a hidden person wants to do!"
As soon as he thought of this, Gu Changan's fingers rubbed the handle of the 'Autumn Killing' knife, and the corners of his mouth sneered.
When the fog is lifted, the truth will be revealed!
After the tea, Li Ding hurriedly ran back.
When he arrived in front of Gu Changan, he immediately said breathlessly: "Check, I found it!"
"When the four of them returned from going out, there was indeed an overlap, and in this overlapping section of the road, only the Zhenhe Temple, which was twenty miles northwest of Xiaohe Village and close to the bank of the Jinshui River, was the most suspicious!"
......
"Childe, this person is in the village in front, should we rush over directly and kill that Gu Chang'an!"
In an area more than ten miles outside Xiaohe Village, Shaping Town, a group of seven people were all riding high-headed horses, and one of them said to the man in brocade clothes in the middle.
The man in brocade was naturally Xu Yicheng, who had chased all the way.
Hearing this, before Xu Yicheng finished speaking, Xu Dao, who was next to him, took over: "No!"
"There are many people in Xiaohe Village, then Gu Chang'an is a person from the Hanging Mirror Division, if we kill him, the Hanging Mirror Division will definitely be furious, once they find out the slightest bit of information, our Xu family will be wiped out!"
Hearing this, a person next to him said indifferently: "Find out the news? Slaughter the village, slaughter the entire village, no matter how powerful he is in the Hanging Mirror Division, can he still find out the horse's feet?"
"Ridiculous!"
Xu Dao said coldly: "The Hanging Mirror Division is the top force in my dynasty, how can you imagine it with your vision?"
"What's more, there are so many people in a village, who can ensure that no one is left behind in the slaughter?
Listening to Xu Dao's words, Xu Yicheng also made a decision.
I saw him wave his hand, interrupted the speech of several people, and said softly: "What Elder Xu said is right, in the face of the Hanging Mirror Division, we have to be cautious! It is better to ambush Gu Chang'an on the only way to return to Guangyang County, once he comes back, he will be killed immediately, and then the bones will be scattered, leaving no traces, after the matter is completed, we will immediately disperse and return to Qingzhu County respectively." ”
"Childe, this is an old saying. ”
Xu Dao nodded in agreement, but then said, "If it's just an ambush, you should choose a good place." ”
"Don't worry about that. ”
Xu Yicheng said: "When I came before, I saw that we passed by a temple, which seemed to be the only road here, and it was not far from here, so we ambushed there first. ”
When the other people heard this, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and then nodded in agreement.
