Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Little Try

"He Zhutou, the people from Zhongzhou are here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" He Zhutou was drinking morning tea in the yamen, and he came in from outside the door and said.

"Let's go, let's go out and greet each other. He Zhutou immediately got up and walked out of the yamen quickly.

At first glance, He Zhutou recognized Ouyang Jincheng and hurriedly greeted him: "I didn't expect to usher in Ouyang Shenzhu today, it seems that the day to solve the case is not far away." ”

"He Zhutou is raised below, but to disappoint He Zhutou, the person who investigated the case this time is not me. Ouyang Jincheng said with a smile.

"What, isn't Ouyang Shenzhu here to investigate the case?" He Zhutou said in surprise. Looking at a few people around Ouyang Jincheng in a blink of an eye, I saw the most eye-catching thing was a tall young man with broad shoulders and a round waist, iron arms and copper fists, and a woman on the side, dressed in a strong suit, heroic and cool, and there was another person behind him, looking left and right. Seeing these three people, He Zhutou suddenly realized and said, "But it's time for Tianzhao Academy to go down the mountain to practice?"

"Exactly, this case will be handed over to the three of them, and I will only be responsible for leading the way. Ouyang Jincheng said with a smile.

"But Ouyang Shenzhu, there are many suspicious points in this case, and many things are incredible, is it appropriate to hand it over to the students of the academy? I remember that in the past, when we went down the mountain, we mainly assisted the tutor to investigate some ordinary cases, and rarely investigated the case alone. He Zhutou whispered.

"Rest assured, they will surely satisfy you. Saying that, Ouyang Jincheng introduced Qin Hexuan and the three of them to He Zhutou, He Zhutou nodded and said a few words, but he was very unhappy in his heart: I wanted to ask for help from Zhongzhou Shenzhuo, and I was looking forward to Ouyang Jincheng, but in the end, I gave full authority to the three fledgling imps, if I can't solve the case, how can I explain to the people of Xuzhou, if I am lucky enough to solve the case, then I will not be disgraced?

Although he was muttering in his heart, he was still enthusiastic on his face, and He Zhutou immediately sent someone to arrange a place for Qin Hexuan and the others at the Fengxi Inn in Xuzhou City.

"Don't worry, let's introduce the case to us first. Jing Xinyao said.

He Zhutou's heart trembled: What a little ghost, I kindly let you go to rest first, but I don't appreciate it, I'll see if you have any real materials. So He Zhutou began to tell the facts of the case, and during the whole process, Ouyang Jincheng had been drinking alone, while Qin Hexuan and the three of them listened very attentively.

"That's the approximate process, all four bodies are still in the morgue, but they are all charred and unrecognizable. And the aunt of the Zhu family, who is the only one who has the possibility of witnessing the murderer's true face, is still in a trance and crazy. He Zhutou finally said.

"It's exciting, it's fun. After listening to this, Qin Hexuan smiled.

"Let's go see the corpse first. Jing Xinyao said.

So he led the people to the morgue. The four corpses were placed in the middle of the room, all badly charred, leaving them in good condition, not decomposing over time.

Qin Hexuan and the three of them stepped forward to observe, and found that although the corpse had been burned beyond recognition, there was no hair at all, and it was impossible to distinguish the facial features, but everyone had opened their mouths wide, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying before they died.

"They must have been burned to death by the heat in an instant when they were frightened. Qin Hexuan analyzed.

"How can you see it?" He Zhutou wondered why he didn't see this, so he asked.

"Imagine what an ordinary person would look like if he was on fire all over his body?" Qin Hexuan asked.

"I will definitely slap my whole body on the fire, or roll on the spot in order to extinguish the flame as soon as possible. Xia Qingcang said.

"Yes, especially if your hair is on fire, you must hold your head and shoot it randomly, how can you still look dead like this. Qin Hexuan pointed to the corpse.

He Zhutou carefully observed the corpses and found that the posture of the four corpses was no longer abnormal except for the wide open mouths.

"I've just looked at the bodies carefully, and there are no other wounds on the body other than burns, and there should be no cause of death other than fire. Jing Xinyao said.

"So now the cause of death has basically been determined, that is, it was caused by instantaneous high temperature and flames. Qin Hexuan said.

"It's no nonsense, everyone knows that they were burned to death. He Zhutou smiled.

"No, it is important to determine the cause of death, because if the murderer wants to use fire to cover up the real way of killing, then if we instinctively think that the cause of death is fire, it is easy to be led by the other party's nose. Qin Hexuan said.

He Zhutou sneered in his heart and did not answer.

"Who was the first corpse?" Qin Hexuan then asked.

"No reports have been received of missing persons, so it has not been possible to identify them so far. A catcher next to He Zhutou said.

"Did anyone see Wang Orion's family on the day before the fire?" asked Xia Qingcang.

"I haven't learned about this yet. Said quickly.

"There aren't many clues out there, so I suggest we start with the most conspicuous one, which is the Wang Orion family. Qin Hexuan said.

Xia Qingcang and Jing Xinyao nodded in agreement, so He Zhutou sent the three of them to lead Qin Hexuan and the three of them to Wang Orion's house on the outskirts of the city. And he went to invite Ouyang Jincheng to sit at his place.

"Now the people in Xuzhou City are panicking, and they all say that these are done by the evil ghosts of hell, and they burn everything with the fire of hell karma. On the way, Xiao Zhukuai beside him kept telling Qin Hexuan and others about the rumors in Xuzhou City in the past two days.

The three of them became tigers, and these two cases have evolved into legendary stories of gods and ghosts through various additions and vinegars, Qin Hexuan listened to it funny, and did not interject, letting this catcher tell the story with spit flying.

On the night of the fire, although someone found the fire and immediately came to draw water to extinguish the fire, when it was extinguished, Wang Orion's house was almost burned to ashes.

When the three of them came to the scene, Wang Orion's house was not big, only a room and a courtyard, and everywhere was burned black, and the room was no longer shapeless, except for a few main beams and pillars, the rest were in ruins.

The three of them carefully surveyed the scene, Jing Xinyao came to the pillar that had not yet collapsed, and reached out to touch the pillar, "Be careful, Miss Jing." Catch quickly stopped it in time, and said: "Miss Jing, be careful not to let your hands be stained with dust, these are all hellish karmic fires, and I am afraid that they will always follow you after they are contaminated, and it will not be good for you to be affected by the time." ”

"Thank you, but I'm not afraid. Saying that, Jing Xinyao carefully examined the pillar.

"Hehe, this brother, I said that the fire from hell can't even burn a pillar in the world, and the power is very ordinary, haha. Qin Hexuan patted Xiao Yukuai's shoulder and smiled.

"How is it, have you found anything?" asked Xia Qingcang.

"This is a case of man-made arson, where did the hell karmic fire come from, nonsense!" Jing Xinyao said.

"Yes, there are traces of man-made everywhere at this fire scene, and it can't be caused by ghosts and gods. Xia Qingcang continued.

"Why, wasn't it a fire set by a demon?"

"Come, you see, there is more charring here than around, precisely because the arsonist used a type of flammable material to fuel the combustion, and that flammable material is sprinkled right here. There are many similar places like this, do you say that the evil ghosts from hell still need to find combustibles to increase their firepower?" Qin Hexuan pointed to a place and smiled at Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu nodded in agreement, and found that his words made sense, thinking that the people from Zhongzhou were really powerful.

"There's nothing to see here, let's go, you take us to Aunt Zhu's house to have a look." Xia Qingcang pulled Xiao Yu and said.

Not long after, the four of them came to Aunt Zhu's house, and Aunt Zhu was sitting alone in the courtyard in a daze.

"It's been better in the past two days, and I haven't been talking about things like gods, but now I've been in a daze every day, ignoring what others call her, we're really afraid that we're going to be devoured by the hellish ghosts?" Zhu Qi said to everyone worriedly.

"What did Lang Zhong say after reading it?" Jing Xinyao asked.

Lang Zhong checked the pulse and said that there was nothing abnormal about the pulse at all, and he couldn't see the reason, hey. Zhu Qi sighed.

"If Cher were here, she would definitely be able to see the cause. Xia Qingcang said.

"Hey, you don't have to leave this kind of trivial matter to Xue'er, I'm listening attentively to Teacher Chen's class, I'll try it. Qin Hexuan patted his chest and said.

Qin Hexuan approached Aunt Zhu, who turned a blind eye to her, her eyes were empty, and she looked ahead in a daze.

"Aunt Zhu, Qin is not talented, and I want to try the pulse. After speaking, Qin Hexuan took Aunt Zhu's right hand and checked the pulse. After a cup of tea, the audience was silent, Qin Hexuan withdrew his left hand and sighed.

Zhu Qi hurriedly asked, "How is it, Brother Qin, can you find out the cause?"

"The pulse was mediocre and unusual. Qin Hexuan said.

"I just said crazy words, and it turned out to be useless. Jing Xinyao shook her head and said.

"Wrong, I can't take the pulse and get rid of the injuries in the brain part. Qin Hexuan knocked on his head.

"You mean my mother has a brain damage?" Zhu Qi asked.

"There is a high probability that this is the case, as the first Lang said, excessive shock will also cause damage to the nerves in the brain, but since this damage is not a physical injury, it should be reversed and repaired, as long as it is stimulated again. Qin Hexuan said with a smile.

"What's so exciting, scare again?" Zhu Qi asked.

"No, that's a malignant stimulus, what is needed now is a benign stimulus. Find something your mother loves and try it. Qin Hexuan said.

"Favorite things..."Zhu Qi fell into deep thought, then went back to the house and took out a hairpin, and said: "This hairpin is a thing that my father personally gave to my mother when I got married, and my mother has been treasured in the box since my father's death, and I have to take it out and wipe it every day." ”

"Okay, let's try it. Qin Hexuan took the hairpin and brought it to Aunt Zhu.

Aunt Zhu's eyes tilted slightly and glanced at the hairpin, thoughtfully, and then looked forward after a while.

"It seems that this hairpin is useless. Qin Hexuan sighed, "Is there anything else?"

"My mother loved this hairpin the most, and I can't remember anything else for a while. Zhu Qi also sighed.

There was a moment of silence. Suddenly, I heard the cry of a doll in the inner hall, "The dog is awake, I'll go and see." Zhu Qi said and hurriedly ran to the inner hall.

Qin Hexuan chuckled, "Wait, we'll go with you." Qingcang, come and help me help Aunt Zhu go together. ”

"Mother is going too, the child is too noisy, I'm afraid it will not be conducive to my mother's recovery. Zhu Qi said.

"No, the mountain people have their own tricks. Qin Hexuan said with a smile.

When he came to the inner hall, Zhu Qi asked everyone to wait outside the door, and waited for the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family in the house to feed the milk before letting her in.

I saw a snow-white fat doll lying there with her full food and sleep, dancing and looking around with her big round eyes. Qin Hexuan helped Aunt Zhu sit beside the small bed, and slowly stretched out her left hand to Xiaowa's little hand. When the fingers touched, Xiaowa slowly held Aunt Zhu's index finger with her little hand, "Ah, ah," Xiaowa called to Aunt Zhu. Suddenly, a warm current hit from the fingertips, flowing all over the body, Aunt Zhu's left hand trembled slightly, and two lines of hot tears flowed down her cheeks, "Good, Sun," The words spit out from Aunt Zhu's mouth, Zhu Qi was shocked, "Mother, mother, have you woken up?"

"Good, son," Aunt Zhu said to Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi hugged Aunt Zhu and cried: "Mother, it turns out that the evil ghost didn't take your soul away, I'm really worried about death." ”

"Okay, let Aunt Zhu have a good rest today, and let your son spend more time with her, and it is estimated that she will be cured in two days. Let's not bother for now. Qin Hexuan said.

Zhu Qi thanked him desperately, and he must pull Qin Hexuan and the three of them to stay for dinner, but the three of them politely refused and left.

"You kid is good, how can you see that this disease can be treated with the grandson of the Zhu family?" Xia Qingcang asked.

That's because when the little baby's cry sounded just now, Aunt Zhu was attracted to it, and her expressionless face revealed a trace of worry. Jing Xinyao said.

"Yo, it turns out that Miss Xin Yao also noticed it. Brother Qingcang seems to learn more from Miss Xin Yao, haha. Qin Hexuan said with a smile.

"That is, Miss Jing is talented and diligent and studious, of course, I can't compare with rough people. Xia Qingcang said.

"Okay, there's something I've wanted to say for a long time, the three of us are so familiar, you don't want girls before and after, call me Xin Yao in the future, and I will call you by your name. Jing Xinyao said.

Qin Hexuan and Xia Qingcang were shocked: sure enough, Jing Xinyao has changed a lot in the past three years, and she is finally no longer as cold as before.

"I've wanted to call it that for a long time, haha, but I used to scream for fear of being beaten by you, hehe. Qin Hexuan quipped.

"Hexuan, don't make trouble, Xin Yao, that's what I'll call you from now on. Xia Qingcang said. I had never called Jing Xinyao's name in person before, but for the first time today, Xia Qingcang couldn't tell the beauty in his heart.
