Chapter 097: Elm Demon Murder Case 1
Hou Hu and Hou Monkey couldn't help but interrupt curiously when they heard Steward Pang's narration, and asked how the person who was barbed on the beam of the house "sucked" Liu Jingshan up?
Steward Pang's voice became trembling, and his expression was frightened: "Just like the person hooked on the beam of the house, there is a power that can suck objects up." ”
Hou Hu saw that Steward Pang said evilly, and showed a look of disbelief, saying that the person was not a catfish essence, how could he suck another person into the air?
Steward Pang's eyes widened suddenly, his face was frightened, and he roared emotionally: "That's not a person, but a monster." ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but gasp, Hou Hu asked Steward Pang in disbelief if he was sick and confused, where did the monster come out of broad daylight?
Steward Pang said that he was absolutely not confused, he and Xiao Tao walked to the door at that time, clearly, clearly saw the person hanging on the beam, wearing a green dress, with dark green stripes on it, after hearing the sound made by the two of them, he actually tilted his head back, and kept his head on his back, a cyan face grinned at them, revealing a sharp tooth, frightened the maid Xiao Tao screamed "There is a monster", and lay down directly at the door, convulsions.
When Pang Guan said this, his voice trembled very much, and he kept coughing, like an old bellows.
Mu Yirong asked Steward Pang to stop talking and lie down to rest, but Steward Pang waved his hand, and his expression was so frightened that Mu Ran stared at Mu Yirong: "My lord, that monster gave birth to dark green eyes, as if an old jade had become a fine." That's the most terrifying pair of eyes that the old man has ever seen when he lives to such an age, and I'm afraid that this life will be unforgettable, unforgettable!"
After Steward Pang said this, a pair of cloudy eyes became dull and empty, as if he had lost his soul.
Mu Yirong saw that Steward Pang could no longer speak, so he asked the people from Liu's Mansion to help him back to his room to rest.
Mu Yirong asked everyone in Liu's mansion to go out, leaving only two maidservants to take care of the unconscious Qi Kecheng, and then the five of them got together to discuss this matter.
Liu Jingshan's accident happened too coincidentally, they were in the county next door, and as soon as he was listed as a suspect in this investigation, he was suddenly attacked and fell into a coma.
Moreover, the eyewitness Steward Pang actually claimed that the attacker was a monster, which is too unbelievable!
Mu Yirong said that when he came in just now, he saw an overturned food box at the door, which shows that the maid Xiaotao and Steward Pang are indeed as Steward Pang said, and the two should be here to deliver food to Liu Jingshan.
After that, according to Steward Pang, he and Xiao Tao walked to the door, and saw Liu Jingshan in the house suspended in mid-air, being sucked up by a green-dressed, blue-faced and blue-eyed monster.
After that, Xiao Tao was stunned at the door, and Steward Pang stumbled back into the rainy courtyard, and fell to the ground because his legs were weak.
After that, Steward Pang heard a "bang", it should be that the monster was disturbed and stopped ...... to Liu Jingshan
When Mu Yirong said this, he paused, and did not find a good adjective to describe the scene at that time.
Hou Hu said that Doctor Fang Cai said that Liu Jingshan's body had a strange qi deficiency phenomenon, is it possible that he was sucked away by Fang Cai's green demon?
Mu Yirong glanced at Hou Hu: "Green goblin, you have a name so quickly!"
Hou Hu scratched his head with a dry laugh, and said that no matter whether the thing that attacked Liu Jingshan was a human, a ghost or a demon, he had to get a code name first to sort out his head.
Mu Yirong nodded, no matter what attacked Liu Jingshan, it was called the Green Goblin for the time being.
According to Steward Pang, the green demon was disturbed, left Liu Jingshan, climbed up to the roof of the house like a lizard, and then ran away in the direction of the west of the city.
Mu Juezhi said that he went to the roof outside to check, whether it was a human or a demon who attacked Liu Jingshan, to see if he had left any clues on the roof when he fled?
Mu Yirong nodded, and said that it was wet and slippery in the rain, so let Mu Juezhi be careful.
Mu Juezhi nodded, walked to the door, and flew to the room.
Mu Juezhi's footsteps were very loud, and the sound of stampedes could be heard on the roof, but because the rain was loud, the stampede was masked, and it didn't sound so obvious.
But soon, Mu Juezhi, who was soaking wet, jumped down and shook his head at Mu Yirong: "The rain washed away the rubble very clean, and there was nothing on it." ”
Mu Yirong looked at the pouring rain outside, pinched his chin and thought for a while, nodded, and asked Mu Juezhi to dry his face and hair, and be careful of catching a cold.
After speaking, he walked to the screen, looked in, and saw that the two maidservants of Liufu were wiping Liu Jingshan's face with silk handkerchiefs, so he stood quietly and looked at it for a while before straightening the screen, and lifting up the tables and chairs outside, and then beckoning everyone to sit down and continue to discuss.
Hou Monkey glanced inward and said that Liu Jingshan had fainted, why didn't his wife come to see him?
Mu Juezhi, who wiped his hair, sat on the stool with his buttocks, saying that Liu Jingshan's wife was now pregnant with Liujia, and it was raining so heavily outside, plus Liu Jingshan was frightened by monsters, no one would dare to tell Liu Fu.
When Mu Yirong heard Mu Juezhi mention Mrs. Liu, he casually asked him, do you know anything about this Mrs. Liu?
Mu Juezhi thought about it for a while and said that Liu Jingshan got married relatively late, and this Mrs. Liu is nearly forty years old, and this is the first child.
Mrs. Liu is also from this county, but when she was in the boudoir, she did not have a name, and after marrying Liu County Lieutenant, she did not spread any good name.
However, in recent years, I have heard that this Mrs. Liu is very prosperous, and her mother's family has rich assets, and Liu Jingshan is now able to mix smoothly in the county, which is also thanks to this lady's blessing.
So the two have been singing and singing, and there have been no rumors of anything disagreeable, which can be regarded as a model husband and wife.
Mu Yirong listened to Mu Juezhi's narration, looked at the rain curtain hanging down like a waterfall outside for a while, and then looked at Ruicao who was wandering around the house: "What do you think about this?"
Mu Yirong didn't believe in any monsters, only said that the monster murder case that had been rumored in the capital before, but in the end, it was not keenly pierced by Seocho.
This time Liu Jingshan was attacked, there must be some mystery in it!
Either someone pretended to be a monster and attacked Liu Jingshan, or Steward Pang lied and deliberately concealed something to confuse the public.
The energy in Seocho's body had not yet recovered, and her perception had deteriorated a lot, but she had not seen any suspicious traces left by the monsters.
In order not to destroy the traces on the beams, Mu Yirong ordered two Liu Fuxia people waiting at the door to get a wooden ladder, he climbed up to check, and found that there were indeed some friction marks on the beams, and even in one corner, he found a piece of green cloth stuck on it.
The fabric is very smooth to the touch, with a high gloss, like silk, and Mu Yirong took it down for Mu Juezhi and others to see.
Mu Juezhi pursed his lips and said that this monster is quite rich, and the clothes he wears are still silk fabrics.
Mu Yirong pinched the piece of fabric the size of a fingernail and rubbed it for a while, then looked at the light, then turned around to block the light, observed the fabric for a while, and looked up at the beams and pillars above.
"The gloss of this garment is so good, even if the house is dim, you should immediately notice the people on the beams and pillars. ”
Mu Juezhi nodded, he, like Mu Yirong, didn't believe in any monsters at all, and felt that Liu Jingshan must have offended someone, and people came to pretend to be ghosts and other things to trick and retaliate against him.
The two subordinates who brought the ladder couldn't listen to it anymore, and said that their old man was very good, except for being stingy and stingy, he was not like the general officials who used chicken feathers as arrows, pointing fingers at people, yelling at people, and never heard of him offending anyone.
After the two subordinates finished speaking, they glanced at each other, and one of them motioned to the tall companion to speak, and the tall subordinate hesitated to say that on the street near the city gate in the west of Lintong County, there was an elm monster that had become a spirit.
As soon as these words came out, the other immediately nodded, and there was an old elm tree in the west of Daocheng that had become a fine and cultivated into a monster.
Some time ago, I sucked a person into the air and happened to be bumped into by someone, and there was a lot of trouble about it. He felt that their master must have been targeted by the old elm monster.
Hearing that an elm monster suddenly appeared, and even said that there was a victim, Mu Yirong immediately asked who the victim was, when did this happen, and if the body was still there?
Mu Yirong's series of questions were exchanged for silence, two subordinates, you look at me, I look at you, no one answered.
Mu Yirong looked at Mu Juezhi suspiciously, and Mu Juezhi's face suddenly sank: "." This county lieutenant is in charge of public security in Lintong County, and he has never heard of any elm monster murder cases, so don't spread false rumors here, be careful that the county lieutenant treats you for the crime of confusing the public with a demon. ”
The two subordinates were so frightened that they didn't dare to say anything more, Mu Yirong was very speechless, it turned out that the two of them had noses and eyes, but it turned out to be just hearsay rumors.
At this time, a maidservant girl walked out of the inner room, she was holding a basin in her hand, and hesitated when she passed by Mu Yirong and others.
Mu Yirong asked her if there was anything wrong with Liu Jingshan, the maid hurriedly shook her head, and hesitated for a while before she spoke: "My name is Zhuzhu, my father is the gardener of Liu's mansion, not long ago he drank with someone, that person is called the drunkard Ah San, that is, he personally told my father that not long ago he was under the old elm tree at the west gate of the city, and saw a person who was like my master today, was sucked into the air, and then he let out an exclamation, startling the monster on the tree, thus saving the victim's life. Since there was no murder in this matter, and it involved heretical theories, presumably the victim would not go to the county office to report the case. ”
Hearing that there was really such a thing, Mu Yirong twisted his eyebrows and asked Hanging Zhu, who was the victim at that time?
and the drunkard Ah San who saved people, can you see the so-called elm monster, what does it look like?
