Chapter 32: The Rivers and Lakes
"The most prominent point of this sect is ......"
The three of them listened with bated breath, and Zhou Wenci didn't think about selling Guanzi, but when he said this, a lot of folds were squeezed out of his old face. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
“...... He's too rich. ”
...... The county ordered you to joke or not. The three of them looked at Zhou Wenci's wrinkled old face, and suddenly couldn't say anything for a while.
"It's that he has money, so his disciples look like a young man as soon as they go out, not to mention that the young master is frivolous. Zhou Wenci said, sighing. "I thought that only those young masters would be like this, but I didn't expect that the young heroes of the rivers and lakes would be like this. ”
"Don't cover it all with the county commander!" Yang Che said half-jokingly, and Zhou Wenci waved his hand and smiled when he heard it.
"That's it," Sun Ke suddenly spoke, "I'll go first, Old Zhou, you take them to see the corpse." ”
"This is ......" What is Sun Zhutou going? The three of them were puzzled, Bai Jike accidentally said two words, feeling a little overstepping, and a little annoyed in his heart.
"Alas, Sun Zhutou still has important things to do," Zhou Wenci came out to explain, "There is a nest of robbers on the ten-mile road outside the village, and now there is a murder, and the Zhao family is also going to that road, although Lao Sun went to send it, it is inevitable." ”
"There is a group of robbers? These ten miles are not too far, why didn't the Yamen send troops to suppress the bandits?" Yang Che frowned, stepped forward and asked.
"Sooner or later. Sun Ke said lightly, and left with a wave of his sleeves. However, he looked like a reckless man, dressed in a short beat, and the sleeves were thrown up like shaking hands. Look at Zhou Wenci's wide robe and big sleeves, this is the only feeling when you throw it up.
"Then let's go. Nian Jiang couldn't wait any longer, and when he saw that the three of them didn't move for a while, he hurriedly urged.
"Hehe, the young man is in a hurry, let's go. Zhou Wenci smiled and took the three of them out of the study.
As soon as he got out of the door of the study, there were four catchers who naturally followed behind.
Nian Jiang glanced at them slightly, and followed Zhou Wenci all the way to the back of a row of houses. Behind it was a flat piece of land, and against the wall were five large porcelain jars up to the waist of a person. Nian Jiang watched Zhou Wenci take them into a room, the house seemed to be independent, separated from the house in front of the boss, and the decoration was also very different, the walls were not painted, and the earthy yellow color was particularly conspicuous in a gray-black stone room.
This is the morgue. The corpse carries an ominous symbol wherever it is, so when facing this matter, it is necessary to separate the morgue from other houses, otherwise it will be unlucky, even if it is decorated, it must be clearly distinguished.
Zhou Wenci put his hands behind his back, led people around to the door, and pushed the door open, and a foul smell rushed out of the door.
“...... Vomit. Zhou Wenci retched and hurriedly got out of the way, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I rarely come into contact with these, so I'm bothering my little brother." When he said the last sentence, he looked at Nian Jiang and said.
Nian Jiang nodded, pulled the medicine box on the left side of his body and put it in front, waved to a few people for a while, and walked in.
The room was small, the windows were nailed shut, and there was no other source of light except candles. Several wooden beds inside are covered with white cloth, and you can see what is underneath, although the sun is shining outside, but when you walk in, you will still feel a cool air rising from the soles of your feet, and you will see that the eleven corpses are covered with white cloths and lie neatly inside.
The eleven corpses were crowded together, Nian Jiang went in to take a look, called a few catchers to come in and sort it out, took out a corpse and put it in a relatively large space, and then put the medicine box next to it, and took out a pair of gloves from it.
He didn't ask the others to come in, after all, the house was well sealed, and the eleven corpses had been here for a few days, and it was impossible for the smell not to be strong. Poor Nianjiang grew up in a variety of flavors since he was a child, and he has long been used to being edified.
Everyone still followed him in, in addition to feeling that Nian Jiang couldn't be burdened alone, he also wanted to know the result as soon as possible. They were a little restrained, standing next to them and looking at Nian Jiang quietly without speaking. If you don't understand anything, leave it to the professionals, they know the result.
Nian Jiang put on his gloves and said "offended" lightly before lifting the white cloth.
Under the white cloth was the corpse of Miss Zhao Family, which had been slightly decomposed, oozing oily things in some places, and her skin was blue and black, and everyone was hairy.
The face of the river does not change color, and the hand sets off directly to the stomach. He spread out his palm, pressed his palm directly on the stomach of the corpse, pressed it a few times with a little force everywhere, and then said to Zhou Wenci: "The corpse has long been stiff, and now I can't find anything by checking it like this, can I ...... Evade it?"
For the audience, everyone almost knew something, and there was some embarrassment and curiosity on their faces, but when they heard Nian Jiang say this, they still left obediently.
Before leaving, Zhou Wenci asked a catcher to stay quickly, and told Nian Jiang to call him if he had something.
Nian Jiang Ying knew that this person was called by Zhou Wenci to spy on him, but he didn't have anything to hide at this time.
However, if there is something, call him, which saves Nian Jiang a lot of effort.
Nian Jiang took out a roll of silver needles from the medicine box, as well as a few special knives wrapped in cloth.
He muttered a word of offense, so he slowly untied Miss Zhao's clothes, mainly the part of his stomach. He didn't want to take advantage of the dead, and besides, wouldn't it be better to take advantage of Ming Xuan.
......
Nian Jiang was still busy inside, and the people outside were self-conscious, and they didn't know whether to lament the high status of the doctor, or the difficulty of the doctor.
At least, just thinking about the fact that they had carefully examined a female corpse that might be pregnant, they felt that they couldn't eat today's meal.
After a long time, the door was opened from the inside.
The crowd gathered around, but they took two steps back.
For no other reason, Nian Jiang came out with a short knife that didn't know what was stained on it, and there was a large blood stain on his face.
"Xiao Jiang, this is ......" The corners of Bai Jike's mouth twitched, and he stood next to his bamboo horse, and asked with a stiff face.
"I accidentally cut it wrong, but it didn't hurt much. Nian Jiang said lightly, leaning sideways, "It's better to come in and talk." ”
"Good. Zhou Wenci carefully straightened his clothes and walked in first.
The people in the back saw that the county order had all made a statement, and they went in one by one.
Zhou Wenci came in and thought he would see something, but he saw that the corpse had been covered with white cloth again, but it was covered with blood.
“...... The corpse had been pregnant for about three months before her death, and a light press on her lower abdomen could indeed reveal a smiling bulge on her belly. Nian Jiang was the last to walk in and explained seriously, "I just checked carefully and found that Miss Zhao was still ...... before her death Signs of insult, signs of slippage in the womb. ”
"Really!" Zhou Wenci's pupils shrank.
"Miss Zhao resisted before her death, with bruises on her head and pinching marks on her shoulders, wrists, and legs. The fatal point on his body was the knife wound that pierced through the chest. ”
"That's really...... What a sin!" Zhou Wenci's body trembled, he refused to be supported by the catcher, his face was full of indignation, "What a vicious person is this!"
"My God......" Bai Jike muttered, he didn't hear the sound and only saw the shape of his mouth, but the anger on his face after being shocked couldn't be hidden, and even Yang Che clenched his fists fiercely.
"We must find the murderer!"
Nian Jiang suddenly remembered what Zhou Wenci said before, the gentleman and the woman will always make people easily associate with each other, he couldn't help but say: "Before, you said that the people from the Qiyin Gate came four months ago, stayed for a few days and left, this Miss Zhao is pregnant for about three months, will this have anything to do with the Qiyin Gate?"
He thought that no one here would be surprised. It's just that this is a matter of rivers and lakes, and Zhou Wenci still has to think about it. Although it is said that it is the day of entering the imperial court, there is still a long way to go to rectify the rivers and lakes.
After a long time, I saw Zhou Wenci close his eyes fiercely, and said hoarsely: "If it has something to do with the Qiyin Gate, I won't ignore it." There are too many cases in these places, I can't stand it!"
"......" Nian Jiang opened his mouth, it was too much? Then all this can be explained very well, the innkeeper is afraid of the people of the rivers and lakes at a glance, and the ordinary people are also afraid and evasive of the people in the rivers and lakes. People in the rivers and lakes are already paying attention to living wantonly, punishing evil and eliminating traitors in their own way, and it is the ordinary people who suffer when they disagree with each other.
Such rivers and lakes, although full of flavor, are enough to disgust, especially for people like Nian Jiang.
Combined with what he has seen for a long time, Nian Jiang can basically judge that the situation in the world is about to change.
In the past, the momentum of hegemony in the rivers and lakes is estimated to never appear again.
