Before Master Zhou left, Nian Jiang suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said, "Lord Zhou, please stay!"

"Oh?" Master Zhou turned around, "What's the matter with Xiaoyou?"

"I don't know if Master Zhou can solve a few doubts for us, it's ......" Nian Jiang said eagerly, it was really uncomfortable to have a few question marks in his heart, he couldn't wait to know the two or three things of the Zhao family and whether there were any strange people in the village recently, he needed a rope that could string together the previous reasoning.

"Well, it's easy to say, it's just that it's too late today, and I have to hurry back to report to Sun Zhutou, but the ideas you provided tonight are really a great help, why don't we go to the yamen tomorrow morning and talk face-to-face?" Master Zhou turned around and looked at the three of them a little embarrassed but still very tolerant and said.

"Well, okay then. Nian Jiang nodded, although he was not happy, but still accepted his words. Nian Jiang is not a vexatious person.

"Well, take your leave. Master Zhou smiled and beckoned to them, and walked out with the catchers.

looked at Master Zhou's back for a long time, until the door was closed by Bai Jike.

Nian Jiang came back to his senses, looked at Bai Jike and wondered: "I remember that only the county will have a county order and a master, how can there be a master in the yamen in the village? Why didn't I see the county order?"

"Alas, you're stupid," Bai Jike walked over and put his arms around his shoulders, "Do you think, where is this place? This is the source of the Xiajiang River! The hometown of the tail fish! If you are the person in power, you don't arrange more people to guard here? Besides, there are many fish and dragons here, and there will be people from the rivers and lakes in addition to fishermen and merchants, so you don't want to set up a yamen to take a look?"

"Oh!" Nian Jiang suddenly nodded, "So where did the county order go, now it looks like Sun Zhutou is in charge." ”

"How do I know, I'll go see it tomorrow. Bai Jike said indifferently.

However, Yang Che, who had been silent for a long time beside him, spoke up, and he made a guess, "You say, will this week's master be the county order? No one said that he was the master before." ”

"Eh, this...... He didn't write at the desk before......" Bai Jike recalled for a moment and said.

"Who knows," Yang Che shrugged his shoulders, "Go to sleep, I'm going to participate in solving the case tomorrow!" By the way, Xiao Jiang," he looked at Nian Jiang, who looked at him fixedly when he was named, "You go take a shower, and by the way, see if there are any traces of being bitten by spiders, and if so, deal with it quickly." ”

"Good. Nian Jiang laughed, feeling very warm in his heart.

"Yes, I forgot if you don't say it, Xiao Jiang, you must say something!" Bai Jike pulled him over and said to him seriously.

Nian Jiang responded to their kindness one by one, found a set of clean clothes and walked towards the water room, and refused Bai Jike's escort and care when he left.

Now at night, Nian Jiang didn't want to work hard to move the people, so he didn't bother the people of the Chamber of Commerce, and went to the water room to get a bucket of water to boil and soak it.

He sat in the bathtub, replaying in his mind Yang Che's advice to find out if there were any traces of being bitten on his body, and then thinking of the cool feeling at his ankle when climbing the canyon, he moved his legs, stood on tiptoe, and stroked his hand on his ankle. He turned his foot around and finally saw a small hole in the side, the size of a pinprick. The periphery of the small hole is still red and swollen, it looks like it has just been bitten, because it was soaked in water before, it has not changed clothes for a long time, and the wound has been covered by wet clothes for a long time, and now it looks a little whitish at the edges, and a small layer of skin is brought up by a gentle rub. He raised an eyebrow and reached out to squeeze the wound, and bright red blood beads overflowed, blooming a red flower in the water.

The blood was bright red in color, and it didn't look bad.

Nian Jiang withdrew his hand, put his hands in front of him, and gave himself a pulse. The pulse was faint and slow, the same as before. Nian Jiang raised his eyebrows, so he didn't care about this.

He quickly washed his body, wiped it dry after getting out of the bathtub, and scooped up his clothes. He fumbled in his coat pocket and pulled out a small medicine bottle.

This bottle was put in when he was just looking for clothes, and it is a good medicine for wound healing and scarring. This kind of small wound will scar after a while, let alone remove the scar. Of course, this is a slow and complicated thing for him to heal wounds with a half-poisonous physique, and as he is transformed into a half-poisonous person, his body's healing ability also decreases.

However, it is better to be cautious. Thinking like this, Nian Jiang pulled out a small piece of ointment from it, stepped on the stool, and bent down to apply the ointment. This ointment is the size of a fingernail of a little finger, and it is a thick layer when applied to such a small wound.

Nian Jiang carefully put on his pants and did not wear shoes. After he was dressed and his hair was dry, he wiped the ointment off it with a cloth, and when he looked at his ankles, there were no traces on them.

He washed the cloth with the bath water and poured it out before returning to his room.

Walking outside the room, seeing that the lights had been turned off, it was expected that the two of them were asleep, and Nian Jiang also slowed down his movements, trying not to wake them up.

A good night's sleep and a refreshing morning afreshment.

Nian Jiang sat up with a yawn, and said that he had no problem under the questioning of the two, and then began to tidy himself up.

The three of them got up early in the morning, and unexpectedly, only Nian Jiang fell asleep last night, Yang Che Bai Jike was too excited, and they were not asleep when Nian Jiang came back from taking a bath.

Nian Jiang taunted the two of them a few words, and the three of them hurried to the yamen after eating a little breakfast.

The yacha brought the three of them in, and the group bypassed the lobby and walked straight to the study.

This yamen is not large, only a few rooms, with a small garden in the middle for growing vegetables, and a well at the very edge, a pile of firewood beside it, and an axe inserted in it. The officials went in and out, looking extremely busy.

When I walked into the study, I saw Master Zhou and Sun Zhutou standing in front of the desk talking about something, and when they saw the three of them coming, a smile obviously appeared on Master Zhou's face.

"You're here. Master Zhou greeted the three of them with a smile, and Sun Zhutou next to him just glanced at them and nodded as a greeting.

"Well," Yang Che looked at the obvious bloodshot and exhaustion in the eyes of the two of them, and couldn't help but ask, "What are the two of you...... Sleepless night?"

"Well," Master Zhou didn't hide it, and generously admitted, "This kind of thing has never happened in the village, and in order to give an explanation to the villagers, we two old men really can't sleep." ”

"Why are you getting old? Bai Jike looked at them curiously, obviously looking only in his forties.

"Hehe," Master Zhou stroked his beard, "This is an old mentality." ”

"Well, that's a lot of nonsense. Sun Zhutou walked up with an impatient face, he had just listened for a long time, were these four people here to solve the case or to chat?

"I'm sorry," Yang Che apologized in time, but before he could continue to speak, he was rudely interrupted by Sun Ke.

"I heard what Lao Zhou Tou said last night, you can solve the case together if you want to, but I want to know if you are murderers. Sun Ke waved his hand, suppressed his emotions, and said.

"Well...... this," Yang Che glanced at Nian Jiang.

Nian Jiang understood, stepped forward and said: "The three of us have been together all along, and a few days ago I accidentally fell into a hole, and after climbing out, I happened to run into a corpse thrown down from above." I examined the body when we found it, and it was freshly dead, and it was soft. ”

"We don't have time to kill people and throw corpses again, and Sun Zhutou, you also said before that they left the day before yesterday or you sent them away, we were still in a small village a little south the day before yesterday. Yang Che added.

Sun Zhutou nodded, didn't speak, but walked back to the table. Seeing his reaction, Master Zhou beckoned to the three who hesitated and let them in.

After coming in, as soon as he stood still in front of the table, he saw Sun Zhutou supporting the table with his hands, looking at them with an inquiring expression, and said, "Do you think that the Zhao family was killed by a vendetta or a murderer?" ”

"Yes," Nian Jiang nodded and said, "So we'd love to know if anything happened to the Zhao family recently...... Or the situation of the Zhao family, and whether there have been some very ...... in the village recently? Peculiar people. ”

"Let me talk about the Zhao family, I'm familiar with it. Master Zhou stood up and said lightly. Seeing the three of them looking over, Master Zhou suddenly remembered something, and said to the three of them, "In the next Zhou Wenci, it is the county order of Xiacun." ”

"It turned out to be the county magistrate, and I was offended a lot before. Yang Che returned the salute and said with a smile.

"This Zhao family, in my opinion, honest duty," Zhou Wenci organized his language and said calmly, "In the past few years, when I checked the merchants in the village, I didn't find anything dirty about his family, Mrs. Zhao is also old, and she is kind and kind on weekdays, and she will give charity to poor people when she meets them, and the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zhao family is also harmonious, that is, her three sons are not successful, and the Zhao family has always been supported by the old woman Zhao, she is old, and it is not surprising that she was bankrupt by the Double Eagle Chamber of Commerce this time." ”

"On weekdays, I don't see anyone who hates the Zhao family, they are all busy working in a village, and even if they hate, they don't know the extent of extermination. So you're right, it's not the locals who killed you. After Zhou Wenci finished speaking, he glanced at Nian Jiang approvingly.

Nian Jiang hurriedly asked: "I checked the corpse before and found that in addition to the three ladies and the middle-aged man, there is a woman, this woman is still good, will there be a marriage contract and then regret the marriage and be hated?"

"You're talking about Miss Zhao, that girl is really good-looking," Zhou Wenci frowned and said, "I don't know if she has a marriage contract, but I don't think it's possible that she will be wiped out just because of the marriage contract." ”

"Have any strange people been in the village lately?" asked Yang Cheye.

"Strange people?" Zhou Wenci didn't speak, but Sun Ke looked at him with a contemptuous expression, "The people who come and go in my Gorge Village are either businessmen or chivalrous, if you want to talk about strange people, there are too many." ”

"Is there anyone who stands out in particular?" Yang Che was secretly annoyed, but he still couldn't help asking.

"Particularly prominent?" I remembered," Zhou Wenci interjected, and patted Sun Ke's shoulder by the way, "Four months ago, the people from the Qiyin Sect came and bought all the fish of the Zhao family, saying that they wanted to celebrate the birthday of the owner of the door, but they stayed for a very short time, and they didn't bargain with the Zhao family, so they bought the fish and took them away in three days." Other than that, it's the same as usual. ”

"Could it be that the strange thing you are talking about is the Ruler Yin Gate?" Sun Ke squinted at him.

"This is not good? The Zhao family has more fish, and it has only been three days. Zhou Wenci glared back, and then immediately changed his attitude and said gently to the three of them, "The main thing is this Qiyinmen." ”

"Qiyinmen?" vaguely felt familiar, and Nian Jiang couldn't help blurting out.

"That's right, the three of them are all young knights, and they all know what the status of this ruler Yinmen is. It's just that they come to our small village to buy fish, and this matter can be done by leaving it to the disciples, but the people who come are young masters. Zhou Wenci said, "It's not that I think there is a problem with the young master, but if you look at that guy's appearance, he doesn't look like a filial person." ”

Sun Ke nodded, and from the frown he frowned when he heard the young master, he knew that he had a bad impression of this person.

Nian Jiang hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Then, Lord County Commander, do you have any reason to doubt this young master of the Qiyin Sect?"

"Not really, after all, there is no evidence. Besides, I have no doubts about the people who left so early. I just remembered. Zhou Wenci said, not embarrassed at all.

"Three months ......" A bold idea took shape in Nian Jiang's mind, he desperately recalled the corpse of the young lady of the Zhao family, I don't know if it was the influence of psychological effects, he blurted out, "If you are pregnant, you can find the clues in three months." ”

The people in the room were shocked by this sentence and turned their heads to look at him.

"You said Miss Zhao is pregnant?" Sun Ke frowned, "Young man, don't talk nonsense. ”

"I wonder if Sun Zhutou has asked him to inspect the corpse?" Nian Jiang squinted, not wanting to let go.

"I'm old, and I went back to my hometown a few days ago to recuperate. Zhou Wenci said with some embarrassment.

No wonder he always looks at Nian Jiang when he speaks, and he also mentions the healer. The three of them suddenly realized in their hearts, so it was not for nothing that Sun Ke rejected them so much and they could all be recruited.

"Then let me check, how can I say that I am also a healer, if it can prove my point, it would be great. Nian Jiang went down the steps, looked at Sun Ke's eyes seriously and said.

"......" Sun Ke was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.

Zhou Wenci on the side exhaled a long breath, and the stone in his heart was finally put down.

"Then the county commander, can you tell us about the personality of this young master of the Yin Sect, and we can make a judgment. Yang Che walked up and said.

Zhou Wenci was stunned for a moment, and felt that it was no big deal, so he agreed.

I thought back to it in my mind, when I was organizing the language, I don't know if I was brainwashed by Nian Jiang's thoughts, the idea that the young master and Miss Zhao had a story has been entangled in his thinking, and the more he thinks about it, the more it seems to be true.

"......" Zhou Wenci patted his head, drove the idea out, then cleared his throat, and under the serious gaze of the three of them, he said, "This has to talk about the Qiyin Gate first, the Qiyin Gate is the middle-ranking sect in the rivers and lakes, but the most prominent point of this sect is ......"
