Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Night Detective

The village shrouded in the moonlight gradually fell asleep in the sound of the tide. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoUnconsciously, everyone in the village except for the yamen blew out the lamps and fell asleep one after another.

Nian Jiang stepped on the roof and ran forward cautiously, Yang Che and Bai Jike ran through the streets, passing through the alleys through Nian Jiang's guidance, and headed towards Zhao's house.

Although tail fish is abundant here, the trade is single, and the villagers do not pay much attention to the renovation of the house, just want to make more money, so the house still maintains the old appearance, wooden houses, thatched roofs. People walk up and are easy to be spotted below. In order not to get lost, the three of them discussed it and asked Nian Jiang, who had the best light skills, to go up and show the way.

"How do you know where the Zhao family is?" Bai Jike asked as he looked at Nian Jiang in confusion.

"This is not simple, we can think of Sun Zhutou and Master Zhou, now that the Zhao family has an accident, how can the yamen send someone to guard the Zhao family. Nian Jiang explained in a low voice.

"Oh. Bai Jike suddenly realized and let go of the hand that was holding Nian Jiang's sleeve.

Nian Jiang felt free, ran a few steps and turned onto the roof, and the whole process was silent. He looked around for a long time, gesturing to the people looking up at him below, and then ran forward.

When he jumped off the roof, Yang Che would remind him to be careful at first, and he would be relieved to see that he had no obstacles.

Nian Jiang squinted and paused, if you were not mistaken, there was a small courtyard with a bright light. He jumped to his feet onto the roof in front of him, and then carefully lay down. Out of the corner of his eye, seeing the two of them following and consciously looking for a place to hide, Nian Jiang put his mind at ease and looked over.

In front is a small courtyard, fenced. There was a red lantern hanging on the small door at the entrance of the courtyard, and a catcher stood there with a knife in his hand, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings. During this period, he also saw where Nian Jiang was lying on his stomach, but Nian Jiang was witty and buried his head in the back before he looked over, and was not found.

Nian Jiang grabbed the thatch with both hands, his knees were slightly forced, and the whole person stepped back, and when his toes didn't touch anything, he slid directly off the roof with force, and Yang Chebai Jike followed him below, avoiding the sound.

"Alone. Nian Jiang lowered his voice, "I'll go around there later, and you can find a chance." ā€

"Good. Yang Che nodded.

Nian Jiang ran to the intersection with a look, listened carefully and didn't find that the official patrolled here, so he walked around in a circle and went around to the back, and then turned onto the roof to observe.

Let's talk about Yang Che Bai Jike's side, the two of them summed up and acted separately. Bai Jike walked to the left, looked around the yard and didn't find anyone guarding on the left, but it was a little difficult to climb over the fence, after all, this fence was so high for a person. He gripped the branch of the fence hard, tugged at it, hesitated, and climbed up.

When he climbed to a high place, his vision instantly widened, he glanced at the entire courtyard, and had to sigh that this Zhao family is really the richest one, the yard is not big or small, there are three houses in total, and there is a small field in the middle, in which a few vegetables are grown, and then a person wearing a fast clothes squatted next to the field, looking vigilant.

Bai Jike cautiously came down again, for fear of being seen just now.

He thought about it for a while, and trotted all the way towards the place agreed with Yang Che.

When they arrived at the agreed place, that is, the place where the three of them would meet, Bai Jike saw that Nian Jiang and Yang Che were already there.

"What?" asked Nian Jiang as he stepped forward.

"There is one in the middle of the yard. Bai Jike said.

"Well, not in the house. Yang Che made up for it.

Nian Jiang took out a packet of medicinal powder from the medicine box, took out the silver needle, and said, "I'm dizzy, go in." ā€

"Good. The two nodded.

Touching the drug on the silver needle, Nian Jiang gave two self-defenses, and then the three of them followed the division of labor just now, and Nian Jiang set off on top and two below.

On the roof before the road, Nian Jiang waited for a while, and saw that the two of them had already touched the back of the house closest to the yard and stood up, and chose a good position to greet him.

Bai Jike cautiously came out from the side, leaned down against the fence and ran over, caught the person who was falling this way, and helped the person to lean against the door.

It was originally night, and in the village, except for the yamen, only here were lanterns hung. The range of the lantern is limited, although there are holes between the fences will be found, but the light is too dark to be found, plus the light will always give people a sense of security, people squatting in the yard will not pay too much attention to the door, so it is much easier for them to move.

So, Nian Jiang took advantage of the people squatting in the courtyard to look behind him, and the silver needle was shot from the left, and the person who was hit would fall to the right, and it was perfect to catch it again.

Nian Jiang moved to the roof next to him, and immediately went up after going up, and slowly moved back.

He jumped off the roof and ran over to find that Yang Che was gone, and knew in his heart that Yang Che had done it.

The division of labor just now was solved by Nianjiang at the door, and Bai Jike supported people. When the people inside found that the door was wrong, they walked up to Yang Che and then solved the other party.

He trotted out of the corner, and saw Bai Jike looking at the door, and when he saw him coming, he beckoned and turned around and ran in.

Nian Jiang understood, ran to the entrance of the yard and posed for the catcher and began to look at the wind. He plucked the silver from his neck and put it in his pocket, then went in and disposed of the other, and when he came out he took two needles and took a cloth out of his pocket and wiped it. Put it back in the medicine box after wiping it.

Touching the medicine box, Nian Jiang suddenly found that he hadn't done what a doctor should do since he came out of the team, and he didn't feel a little funny.

He thought about it, squatted down and searched for it on the body of the catcher, and unexpectedly found a fire fold, he ran in and turned it over, and sure enough, he found another one.

"What are you doing?" asked Yang out loud.

Nian Jiang looked up and found that the other party had already turned out of the house, so he waved the fire fold in his hand and motioned to the other party to look: "Fire fold! Now we can go up the mountain." ā€

"Good. Yang Che walked over, and Nian Jiang found that his expression was very calm.

"Did you find anything?" asked Nian Jiang.

"Nope. Yang Che shook his head, and seeing that Bai Jike also came out, Yang Che beckoned him to let's go up the mountain.

The three of them divided two fires, and Bai Jike took out a candlestick from the house, intending to light it again after leaving the village.

"Be careful, as long as you get a spark on the mountain, you won't be able to get it. Yang Che warned him.

"So, I'll carry you to find it, otherwise I won't be able to see anything by the fire alone. Bai Jike smiled heartlessly, "I can't do anything, Xiao Jiang will perform an autopsy, San'er, you are the most careful, I will do what I can and don't add to the chaos." ā€

ā€œ...... Okay, too. After Yang Che finished speaking, he took the fire fold and ran forward.

"You're good, too. Nian Jiang held back a sentence for a long time, and after patting each other's shoulders, the two also followed.

It is also expected that nothing was found in the Zhao family, first, the Zhao family moved, what will be left in the hometown? Second, Sun Zhutou came during the day, and what evidence was brought back earlier. It's not that the three of them don't know this, but they are a little unwilling in their hearts.

"Instead of waiting here for Sun Zhutou's dispatch, let's go and find it ourselves, at least we can get more by acting than sitting down. Yang Che said, and was recognized by the two.

On the way, Yang Che asked, "Xiao Jiang, what did you see after you turned it over?"

"It's the grass, and the place I climbed up was where the body was dumped, and there were traces of friction and footprints on the ground, and nothing else was found. Nian Jiang said lightly.

"Then what are we going to look for?" Bai Jike couldn't help but say in a loud voice.

"Let's see, you won't know until you get there. Yang Che frowned and said.

The three of them walked all the way to the cave in the afternoon.

Surprisingly, there were no guards here.

"Maybe it's to investigate the surroundings?" Yang Che said, he looked around and turned his head to look at Nian Jiangdao, "That's it, Xiao Jiang, you go in and have a look, let's go from above, and we will look at it together." Wait for Xiao Jiang, you will come up again. ā€

"Okay. Nian Jiang nodded. He didn't care, he jumped up with the stone at the entrance of the cave, and disappeared into the cave in a few moments.

The hole was like a big mouth, and nothing could be seen in the dark, but the river water that turned silver in the moonlight kept flowing out of the hole, and it really looked like a mouth.

Bai Jike swallowed his saliva and ran up with Yang Che.

Nian Jiang took the fire fold in his mouth, and ran over the wall to the innermost with his luck. At this time, the river was rising, and the place where they were standing during the day had been submerged and could not be seen, Nian Jiang estimated it, roughly wanted to get out of the water level, and jumped towards that side, and smashed into the water with a pop, splashing a lot of water. When the river level calmed down, it had already flooded to the waist of the Nian River.

"White bathed. Nian Jiang raised his eyebrows. His feet slipped and slipped, and he leaned against the wall behind him to have some confidence. When I looked up again, I saw a little light on it, and I guessed it was the two people.

I couldn't find anything below, after all, I had seen it very clearly during the day, Nian Jiang wiped his mouth, re-picked up the fire fold, and planned to go up again as he did during the day.

The water on the waist of the dip road undoubtedly brought a lot of resistance to the lower body, and Nian Jiang increased his strength this time before he broke through the water. He jumped up at once, and after his body completely left the water, he slapped a palm mixed with internal force on the surface of the water, and the internal force broke a splash on the surface of the water, and the force also sent him to a high place.

The brightness of the fire fold itself is not strong, and it can only be seen clearly at close range. Nian Jiang looked at the illuminated stone wall on the way to jump, and then grabbed the bulge above, and stepped on it with his feet, and the whole person walked forward like a lizard attached to the stone wall. Nian Jiang will avoid things like grass piles in advance, generally speaking, in this place, there will be something hidden in the grass pile born on the stone wall, he has no intention of provoking, and he doesn't want to plant himself because of what he encounters.

He breathed lightly, raised the vigilance of his whole body to the highest point, and did not let go of the slightest movement around him.

It was this vigilance that allowed him to go up the stone wall smoothly, constantly approaching the crack above, and he could see clearly that Bai Jike was holding the candlestick and staring at him nervously.

Nian Jiang couldn't help but show a relaxed smile at him, but Bai Jike's expression suddenly changed.

Nian Jiang paused for a moment, continued to move forward, the hairs on his body stood up, and he saw Bai Jike holding the candlestick and shaking it towards him, and a few drops of candle tears spilled out, but fortunately it didn't splash on Nian Jiang's hand.

Fortunately, at this time, it was close to the exit, and Nian Jiang saw Yang Che being called over by Bai Jike, and then he also stared at his side nervously.

I don't know if it's a crisis coming, Nian Jiang only felt cold on his body, and there was a sudden feeling of coldness on his ankles, like a hole was broken somewhere. In his eyes, everything seemed to be in slow motion, and Yang Che took out a silver needle and threw it over at a very fast speed. Nian Jiang subconsciously turned his head to take a look, and saw a big fluffy spider that was pierced by a silver needle and fell down, but its slender legs were still moving, and it was not dead.

Nian Jiang took a big breath of cool air, and waved it to the side with the internal force in his hand, and the spider was swept out by the palm wind for a long distance, Nian Jiang exerted his strength violently, kicked on his feet, supported his hands, and his head went out of the mouth of the canyon, followed by his body.

Yang Che and the others hurriedly grabbed him and pulled him up. When his whole person came up, Yang Che didn't take a look at his whole person, and he was relieved to make sure that he didn't bring anything on him.

"Huh......" Nian Jiang gasped a few times, "Thank you, I didn't even notice it just now." ā€

He recognized the spider the second he saw it. This spider is called silkworm spider, and its body parts are particularly similar to silkworms, but it has eight long legs, slender legs, and hair; this spider is highly venomous, and adults are guaranteed to die within three days after a bite. This spider is feared not only because of its toxin, but also because it does not make sounds or breath between walks, so it cannot be detected without suspicion.

"No thanks. Yang Che waved his hand.

Nian Jiang suddenly remembered the feeling of coldness in his ankles when he was still climbing, and his heart was clear.

However, he is half-poisonous.
