Chapter 070: I think my head is too heavy, and I get too little beating
The bald Dachengzi saw Mu Yirong cheating on Chaogui, and was about to make a sound, when he was kicked in the chin by Seocho and fainted.
Chaogui is an old fritter in the rivers and lakes, he wiped a handful of water on his face with his sleeve, put up a 120,000-point smile, and looked like a harmless and stupid shopkeeper, pretending to be stupid: "Adult, I don't know what you're talking about?"
Mu Yirong patted Chaogui's fat face with the back of his hand: "Let me ask you, what are you doing when you go to find Xiao Liuzi, a subordinate of Liufu?"
When Chao Gui heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he also thought that the things he had done before had been discovered, but fortunately, it was just a false alarm.
Chao Gui's pair of mouse eyes dripped, and a big cake face maintained a flattering smile: "That's what the adults asked about." The little six sons of the Liufu Mansion owe us money from the gambling house, and I will collect the bills. ”
The smile on Mu Yirong's face was also undiminished: "It's that simple?"
Chao Gui immediately nodded like pounding garlic: "My lord, even if you borrow 10,000 small guts, the small ones won't dare to lie to you!"
"Do you know that the little sixth son was killed on the day you went to look for him?"
The recent monster murder case in Shangjing has long been rumored to be a household name.
Chaogui heard that Xiao Liuzi was also killed by monsters before, so he hurriedly waved his hand to clear up the matter, saying that he was not a monster who was good at changing and killing.
Mu Yirong stepped on Chao Gui's feet with a slight force, Chao Gui's raised upper body fell to the ground all of a sudden, and Hou Hu, who had a black face, immediately asked Chao Gui Shao to talk nonsense, and asked him if he had killed Xiao Liuzi?
Chaogui didn't know that his subordinates no longer confessed to themselves, honestly confessed their past crimes, and were still in the final dying struggle, and resolutely denied killing Xiao Liuzi.
Let Mu Yirong not wronged good people indiscriminately, and he can't use them to blame them because Dali Temple has not solved the case for a long time.
Hearing Chaogui call himself a good person, Mu Yirong laughed "poof", knowing that his old fritters in the rivers and lakes would not shed tears when he saw the coffin, so he smiled and said: "Chaogui, do you know how to rob and kill, and you should be beheaded when you talk about the law." Your subordinates have honestly confessed to the crime of robbing people and stealing goods in the past, are you alone, do you still have to stubbornly deny it, and hold on to it to the end?"
Chao Gui secretly screamed "not good", glared at his subordinates fiercely, and saw that the three major henchmen all fainted, and there were some wine bags and rice bags left, and it was very likely that they had been deceived by the official messenger.
He had heard of Mu Yirong, the squire of Dali Temple, a well-known young genius and an expert in solving cases.
But he has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, where is he willing to admit it easily, and he continues to quibble and deny it. said that he didn't kill Xiao Liuzi, and he was not a road bandit, and the official should not wronged a good person without evidence like this.
Mu Yirong smiled: "Chaogui, if you have to think that the head on your neck is heavy and you don't want it, I can also fulfill you." ”
As he spoke, Mu Yirong fiddled with his sleeve that was cut by a knife: "Anyway, the guys in the Wanjin Gambling House illegally slashed and killed the officials of Dali Temple with weapons, and they all admitted the crimes of the road bandits in the past. If you add that these people are willing to make meritorious contributions to prove that you are the mastermind, and then you lose your head, you will probably not run away. ”
A trace of cold sweat oozed from Chaogui's head, he looked at the subordinates kneeling on the ground, and saw that they all drooped their heads and did not dare to look at him, and said in his heart that he was really at the end of the road this time, and he was going to be finished.
Hou Hu saw that Chaogui was shaken, so he added firewood to the side at the right time: "I said Chaogui, why are you also a road bandit leader, can you do things so hard." Are you bent on death, or do you want to make meritorious contributions, what do you think, hurry up and give a happy word. ”
Hou Monkey also helped, and persuaded him with good words: "Chaogui, our leader is kind-hearted, if you are willing to honestly explain what you did and what you said when you go to find the little sixth son of Liufu, my leader will ask you for a favor from Jing Zhaoyin and leave you a small life." I'll remind you one last time, it's better to die than to live, and after this village, there will be no more shops. ”
The brothers Hou Hu and Hou Monkey urged Chao Gui to quickly and honestly confess, otherwise the crimes he committed would be enough to sentence him to five horses.
Mu Yirong saw that Chaogui's eyes were swaying very badly, but his lips were pursed, and he just refused to open his mouth, so he gave an ultimatum: "It's okay if you don't confess, when I wake up Dachengzi, Daqiang and Sanzi, I will give them the opportunity to avoid death." The three of them, in order to save a small life, must have answered my questions truthfully. ”
Chaogui was really anxious at this moment, and grabbed Mu Yirong's trouser leg: "Don't be an adult! The little one is a little sober up now, and he remembers some things." ”
Hou Hu saw that Chao Gui was holding him and didn't leave, he retreated, and kicked Chao Gui angrily, making him let go of Mu Yirong, and there was a burst of disdain: "Look at your guy's bear-like appearance, where is it like a road bandit leader who robs the road and kills people and sells goods, it is not enough to be ashamed." ”
Chao Gui smiled wryly, begged Mu Yirong to let him stand up from the cold ground, and swore that he would never resist and escape, hoping that Mu Yirong would do what he said and avoid him from death.
Mu Yirong nodded and agreed: "If you are willing to make up for your mistakes, I will intercede for you." ”
Chao Gui breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the ground, still smiling on his face, but a trace of fierceness and cunning flashed in his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his sleeves.
Chaogui Dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, wanting to assassinate Mu Yirong, but Ruicao, who was quick with his hands and eyes, immediately called "Be careful", and then pulled Mu Yirong into his arms, and at the same time raised his leg and kicked on Chaogui's abdomen.
Chaogui flew backwards, his body slammed into the table, but he quickly jumped up with a fierce face, and was about to pounce on Mu Yirong and the others again.
With a "boom", a sharp sound suddenly sounded in the gambling house, and a dart shot in from outside the door, and the "poof" sound pierced Chaogui's head.
The blood flowed from the door of the noble brain, and he fell backwards, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't bat himself in death.
"There are assassins".
Seocho turned around at the same time as he spoke, and was about to pull out his legs and rush out, but was grabbed by Mu Yirong: "Protect the three people on the ground." ”
Chaogui was suddenly killed inexplicably, although he didn't know why, but there were still three people who went with him to find Xiao Liuzi, no matter what, they had to be protected first, so as not to completely cut off this clue.
The two brothers, Hou Hu and Hou Monkey, hurriedly stood in front of the unconscious three, and were on guard. As for the gambling house guys who were originally kneeling on the ground, a few people wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, and Seocho quickly grabbed a few dice from the table and flew out, hitting the popliteal fossa of several people.
Several of the escaped gamblers immediately fell to their knees and couldn't get up. The little man who did not run away stood quietly on the side, looking at his companion with the eyes of a fool, and said in his heart, Are you stupid, that aunt can fly. You dare to be presumptuous in front of the flying masters, you really think that the head on your neck is too heavy and you are beaten too little!
The person who shot the dart outside did not show up after killing Chaogui.
After Mu Yirong checked Chaogui's corpse, he saw that he was dead, so he groped around him, except for some scattered silver, he didn't find anything useful, so he asked Hou Hu to send Dali Temple to ask the official and go to Jingzhao Mansion to report the news.
