Chapter Eighty-Three: The Spring Breeze Meeting
In the end, it was decided that Gao Jing would personally order the generals, and he and Zhao Zhong would accompany Zhou Ang to do this investigation - in the entire county Zhu Yamen, Gao Jing must be the person who has seen the most confidential files, and he also knows the most about those hidden sects that are active under the water all year round.
And Zhao Zhong's unique ability can distinguish the truth and falsehood of the other party's words to a considerable extent.
You know, he is good at more than "ecstasy" similar to hypnosis.
So the discussion was established, regardless of whether it was about to be on duty, the three of them set off immediately, and it happened that the light rain had stopped at noon, and the three of them rode horses, only taking two ordinary soldiers to watch the horses, and went straight to the tooth shop that Zhou Ang had been looking for before.
The power of the yamen was very strong.
Yaxing didn't dare to shirk at all, and trotted all the way to the courtyard of Guide Fang to pull the old servant who watched the yard, and the old servant led the way, and the three of them had already found Jiang Yun's new house when the sun was about to set.
Jiang Yun obviously didn't expect that what he thought had passed and ended suddenly recurred, and it really alarmed the yamen all at once.
The two soldiers led their horses into the door, because they did not dare to stay in the street, for fear of arousing irrelevant speculation.
So as soon as the five horses entered the front yard of Jiang Yun's house, Gao Jing directly reported the official name, and the family was immediately shocked - there is really no one who is not afraid of officials in these years.
............
"Brother Bodao, take it easy, we don't have any other intentions, we really just want to ask Ling Lang and Ling Ai what the situation was when they were in an emergency. ”
In the study room of the Jiang family's old house, Jiang Yun and his wife sat side by side, while Gao Jing, Zhao Zhong, and Zhou Ang sat around, and Zhou Ang was responsible for asking questions. But although his attitude had been extremely relaxed, he couldn't stand the county Zhu sitting beside him, and there was another guy looking back and forth on the side, which made Jiang Yun and his wife both scared and dazed.
Of course, he did not dare to answer.
So, with some memories, he said while recalling: "My Ai Lang is very well-behaved on weekdays, and his body has always been very good, he has never had any illness since he was a child, and he didn't know what was wrong that day, he suddenly went around in the yard, asked him what was wrong, and didn't speak, forced to pull him, no, didn't let him pull, or turned in circles, scared my husband and wife, some people said that he hit the evil, but he didn't go out that day, but where did he go to hit the evil?"
So we called for a doctor, but when he came to the house, he was already lying down, flushed, panting, and at that time, I thought he seemed to want to speak, but he must have been speechless, just looking at me...... ...... kept looking at me."
He began to say here, and the wife of the Jiang family had already begun to cry, and as he spoke, the more he cried, the more sad he became, and when he got to the back, even Jiang Yun and Jiang Bodao began to cry while talking.
raised to the age of eleven, such a good child, suddenly gone, but I think it's really sad.
Then he said how to take the pulse after the doctor came, and then said that the pulse was really unpredictable, and he didn't even dare to prescribe medicine, claiming that he couldn't do anything and didn't take the consultation fee, so he hurried away. And when they sent someone to invite a second doctor, before the doctor could enter the door, the child had already swallowed his breath.
From the beginning of his illness, that is, circling in the yard, to the last breath, before and after, that is, less than an hour.
The three of them all frowned when they heard this, and Gao Jing was a little thoughtful.
Then, he suddenly interjected and asked, "When did the child start to feel wrong?"
Jiang Yun thought for a moment and replied, "It's about three o'clock." ”
It was three o'clock in the afternoon, that is, about four o'clock in the afternoon.
After asking this sentence, Gao Jing nodded and said nothing.
Zhou Ang looked at his expression and guessed that he seemed to have something in mind, but at this time, he continued to ask the girl about the details of her death.
The answer was that the nine-year-old girl was dying almost exactly like a boy, and even the time of onset was almost the same.
Three o'clock in the afternoon, four o'clock in the afternoon.
The topic was basically finished, the Jiang family's wife was still crying, Jiang Yun was also wiping her tears, Zhou Ang couldn't help but be silent for a moment, and then asked: "Did you think there was anything wrong in the yard at that time?"
Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he understood what Zhou Ang meant, but he recalled for a moment, looked dazed, and then said: "At that time, I only cared about the child, where did I still have the heart to take care of other things......? There didn't seem to be anything wrong, it was just normal! We were all at home at the time, nothing else. ”
"Both times?"
Jiang Yun thought about it and replied, "It's like this both times. ”
Zhou Ang nodded, turned his head to look at Gao Jing, and then at Zhao Zhong.
Gao Jing took a deep breath, stood up, and said slowly: "Just ask this, I probably have a number." ”
So Zhou Ang and Zhao Zhong also stood up afterwards.
Gao Jing turned his head and walked out, Zhao Zhong also followed him out, but Zhou Ang was still a step behind, turned around and seriously comforted: "Brother Bodao don't have to worry about anything, we just have to ask, this is the duty of the yamen, and we won't be embarrassed by you." ”
But Zhou Ang clearly underestimated Jiang Yun's observation, or wisdom.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yun turned his head to see that Gao Jing and Zhao Zhong had already walked out of the door, so he grabbed Zhou Ang's sleeve, looked at him with blazing eyes, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zixiu, is there something strange about things?"
Zhou Ang was stunned for a moment and looked at him.
He hurried up and said, "Since the official just now is the county minister, how can he be so concerned about the two children who have died?
"Brother Zixiu, tell me everything!"
At this moment, Zhou Ang could experience the complicated feelings of a father who suddenly discovered that the death of his children might have other reasons.
He was confused, he was puzzled, and he even had a faint sense of anger.
On the side, his wife's reaction was several beats slower. At this time, although she had stopped crying because of her husband's words, she only looked at her husband with some surprise, and she didn't seem to understand why Jiang Yun asked this.
"This Jiang Bodao is a smart man!"
Zhou Ang thought so in his heart, but he just patted his hand, and then moved his hand away with a little force, and said: "There is such a case, which may be related to Ling Lang Lingai's death, which is somewhat involved, and we are still investigating, so I can't say more." Moreover, you husband and wife don't know better. ”
With that, he turned around and walked out.
took a step out, but turned around, looked at Jiang Yun and his wife very seriously, and said, "Brother Bodao, please rest assured, as long as there is a slight possibility, I will definitely do what I have to do." ”
............
"The Spring Breeze Society is a sect that has been suppressed by various countries for many years, and in fact, there is no power at all, but there are still many people active among the people everywhere. ”
On the way back, a group of five horses stepped unhurriedly on the bluestone pavement, making a crisp clattering sound.
The two soldiers lagged behind and followed carefully, and on the three horses in front, Gao Jing had been silent until he came to the wide street, and then he suddenly opened his mouth, but he suddenly introduced the basic information of the Spring Breeze Association like popular science - these things, even Zhou Ang has seen them.
But what he said next, not to mention Zhou Ang, was that even Zhao Zhong had never heard of it.
He said: "The Spring Breeze Society likes to sacrifice young children to the gods they believe in, but if I remember if I am not mistaken, their ritual requirements are quite strict, and it is not just a matter of killing a child. ”
"Moreover, in other places like this, by manipulating the child's spirit, or by some other mysterious method to kill him, it is not something that ordinary cultivators can do. ”
Speaking of which, he concluded: "So, this thing ...... There are still doubts. ”
At this time, it was Zhao Zhong who reacted first, and he said, "Do you suspect that it is not the Spring Breeze Society?"
Gao Jing pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "Not necessarily. But the Spring Breeze Club should not have so much energy. Unless they have a new strong person on the horizon. ”
Zhao Zhong nodded when he heard this, stopped talking, just frowned and thought hard.
At this time, it was Zhou Ang who suddenly said: "Then if you think differently......
After a pause, he sorted out his thoughts and said, "What if the other party is a multi-person team, and there is an illusionist with good spell strength among them?"
The two of them, four eyes looked at Zhou Ang for the first time at the same time.
At this moment, it was as if a storm suddenly arose in my head.
Gao Jing pondered for a moment and said, "It's not that this is not impossible. Although the Spring Breeze Society doesn't seem to be good at this, they have been dormant for more than ten to twenty years, and they have rarely heard of their large-scale crimes, maybe they ......"
At this point, his words suddenly stopped.
Then, he suddenly glanced to the left, then to the right, suddenly lifted the reins, and said, "Go, quickly return to the yamen!"
After saying that, he immediately clamped the horse's belly and galloped wildly.
And when the group of three hurried back to the county Zhu Yamen, Gao Jing threw off the horse, threw the reins directly to the soldiers at the door, and walked in quickly.
At this moment, it was already dark, but the second hall had already lit up the lamps and candles.
Gao Jing quickly called He Yi, who was in charge of the night, and Du Yi, who had not left because he was worried about the case, plus Zhou Ang and Zhao Zhong, and ordered: "Immediately copy out the list of children who died during this time in Guide Fang and the names of their parents, and in addition, immediately order someone to go to Guide Fang, quietly call their Fang Zheng, and then call a few soldiers who are familiar with the situation of Guide Fang, and prepare a picture of Guide Fang!"
When everyone heard this, they were puzzled at first, and then they each began to ponder.
Du Yi asked: "County Zhu, this is to ......"
Gao Jing looked at the people around him and said slowly: "Mark the locations of all the deceased's residences one by one, and then mark the residences where the group lives at the moment." ”
After a pause, he muttered, "I think the situation may be a little more than we expected......
Without this chapter to say, and without comments, I'm almost suffocating......
