Go to ancient times to catch fast

Some discoveries and the emperor's order, Chu Xiaoyun and others quickly cleaned up, and hurried to the place drawn on the map.Because Chu Xiaoyun wanted to report to Wei Jinghan, he went back to Hejing County first, but Jie Xun didn't need to meet a county magistrate who was lower in rank than himself, and took his subordinates to Fangchuan Waterway first.

When Chu Xiaoyun returned to the Hejing county government office, he found that Yu He had already returned to the county government office before him.

"Is the matter of the Fangchuan Corpse Pit settled?" After reporting to Wei Jinghan, Chu Xiaoyun asked Yu He after leaving Wei Jinghan's study.

Yu He said: "My lord has already dealt with it."

"What's the situation, let's talk about it." Chu Xiaoyun said.

"It has already been proved that the corpses buried under the Zhenling Temple are indeed the guards of the Gu family who were attacked. Their belongings, including their clothes, were originally destroyed by the gang of thieves, but the gang of thieves did not expect that Ren's will was true. Some unattainable things can be achieved. There was a person who held a jade pendant tightly in his hand until he died, but no one found out. It was the jade pendant that confirmed the identity of the person in the corpse pit." Yu He said.

"You may not have imagined that the bone holding the jade pendant was Deng Fei's brother Deng Xing. The jade pendant he was holding was the reward given to him by Gu Qingyun for his hard work when he was a member of the Gu family's bodyguard. Later, he gave the jade pendant to him. Song Yanzhi, the twin son who was sold into slavery. The jade pendant became a token of love between the two."

"Later, Deng Fei wanted to redeem him, but he didn't have enough money. Song Yanzhi took the initiative to return the jade pendant to Deng Xing to collect the ransom. Deng Xing pawned the jade pendant and got enough ransom, but he couldn't redeem him because of Song Yanzhi's status as a family member of a prisoner. After Gu Qingyun learned about it, he not only helped him find a relationship and redeemed him, but also redeemed the jade pendant."

"I took the jade pendant you gave me back to Hejing County, and the adults ordered to post a notice to find the relatives of the deceased, and specifically asked the Gu family to let the family members of the guards who were killed back then come to watch the notice. When Song Yanzhi heard about this, he and Deng Fei When I came here, I recognized the jade pendant when I saw the posted notice. Later, Deng Fei brought Song Yanqian to the Yamen to identify the corpse, so the corpse in the corpse pit can be identified.”

"I didn't expect all the guesses to come true." Chu Xiaoyun was not very embarrassed, "But fortunately, Deng Fei's wish to find his brother has finally come true."

"Well, this can be regarded as a kind of comfort." Yu He also nodded.

Chu Xiaoyun recalled his relationship with Deng Fei, and said to Yu He: "I promised Deng Fei to help him find his brother. Now that the matter is over, it finally has a happy ending. But I was not there when the body was identified. Now that I am back, I should Go and have a look. Do you want to go with me?"

"Since that's the case, we might as well go together." Yu He said with a smile.

It's not good to come to the house empty-handed if it's not for official business, and the Deng's family is on business.Apart from buying some sacrificial objects, the two big men thought about it for a long time but didn't know what else to buy.Later, when he accidentally thought of Shu Yu, Chu Xiaoyun realized that Deng Fei and Song Yanzhi already had a child, and this child should also entrust Song Yanzhi's longing for Deng Xing, which coincided with this incident, so he decided to buy some for him. Children's items go.

On the way to Deng Fei's house, when passing a wooden bridge that was in disrepair in the mountains, Chu Xiaoyun suddenly remembered the case of Wei Tang, Deng Fei was involved in it, and the government did not hear about him for a long time, and once regarded Deng Fei as the murderer.Later I found out from Deng Fei that after he was carrying Weitang, when he passed a small wooden bridge, the wooden plank fell loose and fell from the bridge, almost dying.Is this the small bridge that Deng Fei fell off the mountain stream?

Thinking of the past, when crossing the bridge, Chu Xiaoyun specially reminded Yu He: "This bridge is not very stable. Last year, Deng Fei stepped on the air and fell, and almost died. Be careful."

"There's also this matter." Yu He said, "It's unexpected that the cases that happened in the year I was away are so thrilling."

When crossing the bridge, Chu Xiaoyun found that there was indeed a trace of repair on the bridge. It must be that the place where Deng Fei stepped on the hole last time has been repaired. The bridge deck seems to be fine.

Yu He was very careful when he walked onto the bridge, and chattered to Chu Xiaoyun after walking a few steps: "Although this bridge is old, the wood is not so rotten, no matter what, a big living person could fall down."

"Really?" Chu Xiaoyun didn't know much about these things, but Yu He has been living in this era and walked around with his father since he was a child. It's not surprising that he has better experience in this aspect than him.

"Yes, look, the quality of this wood is far from the point where it will break when you step on it. Could it be that when the bridge was built, new and old wood were used together? It is also possible that different types of wood were used, and some decayed quickly. Some." While chattering with Chu Xiaoyun, Yu He carefully looked at the wooden bridge where a witness almost fell to his death.

Looking across the gaps of the wooden bridge, I accidentally found a prismatic thing embedded in the middle of the wooden bridge deck, which is completely different from the round wooden bridge.Yu He couldn't help but take another look.This glance made him look at the gleaming pointed tip of the prismatic object.

"Why does this thing look like an arrowhead?" Yu He squatted down to look.

Chu Xiaoyun hurriedly followed after hearing the words, and glanced at the wooden stick stuck in the gap, it was not just a severed arrowhead.Chu Xiaoyun lay on the bridge deck and squinted his eyes to look down. The arrowhead pierced so deep that more than half of it had gone into the bridge. The upper arrow body had been cut off by the sword, leaving less than one centimeter of the arrow body.

The two looked at each other.

"How can there be such a standard arrow in this mountainous place?" Yu He asked strangely.

"Are you sure this is not used by hunters?" Chu Xiaoyun asked with a pause in his heart.

"Although the body of this arrow is less than half an inch, it can still be seen that the body of the arrow is exquisitely crafted and painted in the wind and rain in the gap of the wooden bridge; what is more important is that the arrowhead is only made of rough iron by ordinary hunters. It’s also very simple, and judging from the exposed part of this arrowhead, the cut surface is also more complicated.”

"Is there such a thing?!" Chu Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, then resolutely said, "Dig out this arrowhead and see what's going on."

"Ah? Is this necessary? Maybe it's the son of the official family who came here for a visit..."

Before Yu He finished speaking, Chu Xiaoyun cut it off: "I remembered that Deng Fei once said that when he fell, there was a sound of breaking wind in his ears. It was because he was nervous at the time and he didn't pay attention. Now that I think about it, It should be the sound of arrow feathers passing."

"Is there such a thing?" Yu He was not calm anymore, "You suspect that Deng Fei was framed by someone at that time? Someone wanted to kill him to silence him?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chu Xiaoyun to answer, he continued: "Since this is the case, it is indeed necessary to take it out and have a look. Looking at the degree of wind and rain on the wound on the arrow body, it has been more than a year. What I told you The timing of Deng Fei's distress is just right."

The arrowhead was inserted very deeply, and there was only less than half an inch of arrow body left, so it was absolutely impossible to pull it out with manual strength alone.Chu Xiaoyun looked at the broken arrowhead, and unconsciously, a scene of a vigorous warrior rushing forward appeared in his mind, pinching the body of the arrow and pulling it out forcefully, several times, the arrowhead did not seem to loosen at all, maybe it was time In a hurry, the warrior couldn't pull out the arrow, so he cut off the arrow with the sword and weapon he carried with him, and fled away.

Chu Xiaoyun stared at the arrowhead in the gap and said: "It was not easy to pull out the arrowhead when it had a body, but now it is impossible to pull it out with bare hands. We can only remove this section of wood, and then take out the arrowhead."

Yu He looked at his and Chu Xiaoyun's sabers: "Our yamen sabers are not suitable for taking this thing at all. If we forcefully take it, the bridge will be broken."

No wonder the owner of the arrowhead didn't take it by force. Apart from the fact that the arrowhead itself is difficult to be found in the gap, it may also be afraid of destroying the bridge and causing suspicion.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoyun said to Yu He: "Go to Deng Fei's house and ask Deng Fei to come. He has repaired this bridge, so he should have tools. I will guard here."

"Okay, I'll come as soon as I go." Yu He took the gift across the bridge and walked to Deng Fei's house, while Chu Xiaoyun stayed on the bridge guarding the arrowhead.

Looking at Yu He's back, Chu Xiaoyun couldn't help thinking that in the case of Wei Tang, if Yu He was there, he sent Yu He instead of Wang Sanqiang to check the scene and verify whether what Deng Fei said was true. It has long been discovered.Deng Fei was not only cleared of his grievances, it was very likely that he had already discovered that Deng Fei was also one of the targets of being harmed.The degree to which the case is solved will be different, and I may suspect that it is the fake Gu Qingyun earlier.Maybe he wouldn't let that fellow escape easily.

On the point of solving the case, Chu Xiaoyun had to admit that Yu He was still much more talented than Wang Sanqiang.

But everything is in the past, all we have to do now is to seize the moment.

Less than half an hour later, Yu He brought Deng Fei to the wooden bridge.As a farmer living in the deep mountains, Deng Fei has all the tools.Using a mace and a chisel, he removed the arrowhead with as little damage to the bridge as possible.

Looking at the arrowheads he took out, Deng Fei also confirmed that the hunters here would not use this kind of arrowheads, and that the small bridge usually passes by nearby farmers.After Yu He took the arrowhead back to the Yamen, it was soaked in potion and the exact time was deduced. This arrowhead was indeed nailed into the wood on the bridge at the time when Deng Fei was in danger.

Past cases once again lifted a layer of veil.

Thinking about it, the fake Gu Qingyun wanted to get rid of not only Wei Tang who might want Zhou Ying to expose his true face at any time, but also Deng Fei who was always looking for his brother.Both of these people may reveal his identity at any time.His actions can be described as killing two birds with one stone.At that time, I did confuse my own eyes, but fortunately, the truth will come to light one day.And they waited.

Deng Fei looked at the arrowhead protruding from the wooden bridge, felt a little afraid in his heart, and sighed: "Unexpectedly, it was not an accident that the wooden bridge fell down, but someone deliberately wanted my life for it."

"The thief was afraid that you would not die if you fell into the mountain stream, so he wanted to shoot the arrow from behind. It's just that you are not as good as God, and you still escaped this catastrophe. The crime of the counterfeit has added another piece of evidence." Chu Xiaoyun put the broken arrow away. Get up, "Now that the truth of the case is revealed, your brother will be relieved to be alive. I hope you will take good care of Song Yanzhi and live a good life."

Deng Fei said solemnly and affectionately: "That's natural. No matter why, I will take good care of Yanzhi."

Looking at Deng Fei's affectionate face, Chu Xiaoyun unconsciously thought of Su Wen again.In this situation, he missed Su Wen and Xiao Shuyu who were far away in the capital.

Yu He elbowed Chu Xiaoyun at the side, and smiled mysteriously: "Let me guess what our catcher Chu is thinking? Ah, it must be my sister-in-law and nephew who are far away in the capital. "

Chu Xiaoyun gave Yu He a backhand.

Seeing the fight between the two, Deng Fei smiled gently and said, "Chu Butou is also a very affectionate person."

Yu He laughed as he ran: "Needless to say, when we were handling cases before, Chief Chu always brought his sister-in-law with him. Wherever we go to investigate the case, we will bring him there."

Chu Xiaoyun recalled those days when he led Su Wen to investigate cases, and the expression on his face became more gentle.Those things that weren't so long ago, when I think about it now, seem to have happened for many years.Although it was a last resort due to the assassination of the thieves at the time, it is a rare and sweet day when I think about it now.

Now Su Wen is safe and sound, but something is changing inadvertently.Chu Xiaoyun had a premonition that even if they had cut off the Hu people's line, Su Wen might not have the same ordinary life as before when he came back from the capital.However, he still misses the old days very much, misses that now that he is busy investigating cases, he rarely goes back, and almost forgets that he traveled through time and left the home for him with his original body.

If given the chance, he hopes to go back to the old days.
