Early the next morning, the rain was a little lighter than the day before. Su Zhuo, www.biquge.info the pen "Fun", woke up and saw the beggar lying on the grass not far away, sleeping soundly. Hua Ping was not far from him, and slowly opened his eyes.

Su Zhuo said softly: "Take advantage of the light rain, let's hurry early!"

Hua Ping nodded, sat up and pushed the crazy beggar. Su Zhuo stood at the door to feed the horses, and when he saw Hua Ping waking up the mad beggar, he guessed his mind and said, "You want to take him with you?"

Hua Ping nodded and said: "Here are barren mountains and mountains, he injured his leg, and there is only one way to die if he stays here, so it is better to bring him to Licheng and live in peace." ”

When the mad beggar heard this, he seemed a little frightened, and he kept stepping back, shouting, "Don't arrest me......"

Su Zhuo chuckled lightly and said, "You see that he doesn't appreciate your affection!"

Hua Ping stepped forward to comfort him, but it didn't work, so he took out the baked cake to lure. The mad beggar was not fooled, and still struggled and screamed. Hua Ping looked at Su Zhuo helplessly, but Su Zhuo shrugged his shoulders, approached the crazy beggar, squatted down, and patted him lightly on the shoulder.

The crazy beggar was stunned for a moment, and somehow when he landed, half of his body was so numb and numb that he couldn't move. Su Zhuo leaned into his ear and whispered a few words, the crazy beggar was really not noisy, and stared at Su Zhuo blankly. Su Zhuo ignored him, turned his head to Hua Ping and said, "Take him away!"

Hua Ping didn't know what he said to the crazy beggar, he was so useful, and looked at Su Zhuo strangely. Su Zhuo had already gone out to untie his horse and shouted: "Let's go! Otherwise, I won't be able to catch up with Licheng today!"

Huaping couldn't, so he had to pick up the crazy beggar, and the two rode together and slowly hit the road. Because I brought an extra person, I walked more slowly than the other day. By noon, Su Zhuohuaping didn't dare to stay, and only ate some dry food on horseback. Fortunately, the rain was much lighter, and the road was much better.

Along the way, Hua Ping kept asking Su Zhuo what he had said to this crazy beggar. Su Zhuo just smiled and glanced at the crazy beggar behind Hua Ping, but did not say the answer.

The official road gradually widened, and by dusk, several people could already see the tall walls of Licheng from afar. Su Zhuo suddenly reined in the horse, Hua Ping was stunned, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Su Zhuo pointed to a big tree in front of him, and a swallow was carved on the trunk. Hua Ping is no stranger to this, he painted this swallow on the wall of Gu Su Ling's house that day, so that he could see Yan Linglong. He was startled and blurted out, "Could it be that Miss Yan ......?"

Su Zhuo didn't wait for him to finish, then turned his horse and went in the direction that Yan Shou pointed out, and said: "This swallow is still new, Yan Linglong may still be in this wood!"

Hua Ping hurriedly followed him, and the two entered the woods, and after walking a short distance, they saw a gray back not far ahead. Su Zhuo recognized it at a glance and shouted, "Linglong!"

Yan Linglong turned around and saw the two of them, did not speak, and still stood in place. Su Zhuo and Hua Ping hurriedly rushed forward, but they were stunned all of a sudden. I saw a person lying in front of Yan Linglong, a young woman, dressed in black, covered in mud. It's just that she didn't get angry at all, her eyes were open, and she was already dead.

Su Zhuo exclaimed: "Little Yan'er!"

Yan Linglong's eyes were red, and she wanted to cry. Su Zhuo had met Yan'er a few times, and he liked this eccentric woman very much, and he also knew that Yan Linglong and Xiao Yan'er had a deep relationship, so he silently stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder.

Yan Linglong said in a deep voice: "I rushed to Licheng early yesterday morning and inquired in many ways, but I didn't find Yan'er's whereabouts. The brother who reported to me only said that he had seen her distress sign in the city and had not found her. I heard the bad news early this morning......"

Hua Ping saw her sad appearance, and his heart was also very uncomfortable, and then he looked at the corpse, which was pretty, just in his youth, but he was already accompanied by this loess, and it was sad to think about it. He said in a deep voice: "Miss Yan, don't be sad, Su Zhuo will definitely find out the murderer and avenge Miss Yan'er!"

Yan Linglong listened to his soft voice of comfort and nodded silently. Su Zhuo had already squatted next to the corpse and asked, "Who found the corpse?"

Steam Linglong replied: "It was found by a woodcutter when he came here this morning to cut wood, I have already checked, and there is no problem with him." The woodcutter ran back to the nearest county magistrate, perhaps because it had been raining for several days, and the county magistrate had not come yet. I guess you'll be there today, so I'll mark the road and keep it here. ”

Hua Ping said hatefully: "These corrupt officials and corrupt officials, human life matters, even ignore it!"

Su Zhuo snorted coldly and said, "It's better if they don't come, so as not to have a branch on the side." Did you dig up the corpse? Looking at the depth of this pit, it should be that the person who buried the corpse was overly rainy and damp, and did something hastily. Yan'er's right hand is cleaner than her left hand, and it is only when this hand is exposed that it will be discovered. The body had multiple bloody spots on his body, and he had been severely beaten before his death. There is a pair of prints on the neck, which was strangled to death...... What is this......" The corpse had a pinch mark on its neck and a red swelling on one of its fingers.

Su Zhuo said to himself: "Is it a ring......?"

Hua Ping interrupted him and said, "Su Zhuo, don't talk about this, hurry up and find the murderer!"

Su Zhuo looked up and saw Yan Linglong's tears rolling in her eyes, only to realize that Fang had just talked to herself, which made her sad, and Hua Ping reminded her. He stopped making a sound, touched a few handfuls on the corpse, and suddenly exclaimed: "Yan'er's pericardial meridian is seriously damaged, and the meridian qi and blood are stagnant, forming a red and swollen pimple on the chest, this is injured by the inner kung fu! What kind of kung fu is this......?"

Yan Linglong was taken aback and said, "You mean that there is a person who knows martial arts who hurt her?"

Su Zhuo sighed and said, "Not bad, and this person should be a master!"

He squatted on the ground again to check for a while, and said, "Look at the ground, in addition to the footprints of a few of us, there are obviously two people's footprints, which should be the people who buried the corpses." These two pairs of footprints are not step shoes, but hard-soled boots. Except for the different sizes, the rest of the imprint patterns are exactly the same, and they are not official boot styles, they should be domestic slaves in a rich family. ”

"These footprints have not been washed away by the rain, indicating that the body should have been buried in the early hours of this morning, not long before dawn. The gate was opened at the beginning of the morning, and the two men should have gone out at that time. There are no rut marks on the road, indicating that they came on foot. Since it is a corpse, it will definitely not carry the corpse on his back and swagger through the city and walk too far, so that house must be in the south of the city closest to here!"

Yan Linglong heard him come to a conclusion and said, "I'll go find it!" and then turned around and was about to leave.

Hua Ping hurriedly stopped her and said, "Miss Yan, don't worry about it first! There are so many courtyards in the south of the city, and it is not a way to find a needle in such a haystack." Let's wait for Su Zhuo to find out!"

Yan Linglong was just excited for a while, so she was in a mess, and after listening to Hua Ping's comfort, her heart calmed down a lot. She glanced at Huaping with a grateful look in her eyes.

Su Zhuo was still examining the corpse, but he didn't say anything considering Yan Linglong's feelings. He picked up Yan'er's right hand and suddenly saw that his five fingernails were covered with gray mud. Su Zhuo is a little strange, this place is all loess, but the color of this sludge is a little different, what is this?
