Every time you cross, you are in a prison cell in Dali Temple
Chapter 30 Love and Jealousy
Yang Mu, who had already died, was standing in front of Li Luo alive now.
Li Luo didn't show any surprise, but said: "Catcher Yang, it's really great that you're not dead."
On the contrary, Yang Mu was a little surprised. The two stood facing each other and said, "You don't want me to die?"
Li Luo nodded sincerely, and said: "Of course, Detective Yang is so tall and handsome, so good-looking, it's a pity to die."
Yang Mu: "..." Just after saying a few words, the conversation became inexplicably difficult.
"Actually..." Li Luo didn't think it was shameful to be silent, and said with a smile, "When I left the yamen, I had some doubts whether you were really dead."
"Oh?" Yang Mu asked, "Why do you doubt?"
Li Luo said, "Because of the little prince."
Yang Mu repeated: "Prince?"
"Yeah!" Li Luo explained: "You don't know, you committed suicide by leaving a book, and after the little prince heard about it, he cried until his heart broke. It was so tragic, I couldn't bear to see it."
Yang Mu was silent for a while.
Li Luo added: "You know the prince very well. Although the prince is a little domineering, a little willful, a little impulsive, a little reckless, a little..."
"Young Master Li..."
Li Luo was a bit of a failure to suppress and then raise, Yang Mu couldn't listen anymore, and said: "It's better to make a long story short."
"Oh……"
Li Luo had no choice but to simply say: "Anyway, the little prince is very emotional, you died, partly because of him, how could he not be sad? I thought he would stay there for ten and a half days Months, to mourn you. But who would have thought..."
The little prince Xie Tang left before dawn the next day.
"Tsk tsk..."
Li Luo curled his lips exaggeratedly, and said: "What made the little prince suddenly change his mind and leave there? I think it was the prince who found out that he was cheated! It's so miserable..."
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu stood silently for a moment, and then said: "Actually, I didn't lie. At that time, I didn't remember well, I was very desperate, and I didn't want to hurt others, so I planned to commit suicide. I wrote the letter myself. "
"We have confirmed the handwriting." Li Luo nodded: "From the notes, you were not in a calm mood at the time. Could it be that...someone saved you?"
Yang Mu smiled and said, "Master Li, you are really smart, you can guess everything right."
Li Luo was unhappy when he heard it, and said: "I'm really smart, so I didn't guess, but reasoning. It's too loose to say guess."
Yang Mu didn't talk to him, saying, "It is true that someone saved me."
"Wow—" Li Luo sighed, his eyes lit up, and said, "That person..."
Yang Mu didn't wait for him to continue, and said decisively: "I won't tell you who that person is."
"Who asked you this." Li Luo said with disgust on his face, "Catcher Yang, we have known each other for a while, and you don't know me too well. I want to ask, the expert who saved you , Is he beautiful? Beautiful or not!"
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu no longer knew how he was going to face Li Luo, Li Luo never played cards according to common sense.
Yang Mu felt oppressed when he appeared in front of Li Luo, obviously he had the upper hand.And now...
Yang Mu felt that he was being teased by Li Luo.
Yang Mu wanted to win back the game, and said, "Mr. Li is so obsessed, isn't he afraid that King Yingchuan will be jealous?"
"Look at what you said." Li Luo said with a smile: "But it's true. I miss the prince three times in the morning and four times in the evening. It's true that it's going on and on, and I'm touched."
Yang Mu: "..."
Li Luo continued: "Besides, the prince threatened me, doubted me, tempted me, seduced me, even if he didn't like me, how could he be jealous?"
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu inexplicably wanted to ask, what happened to sex/seduction?
Li Luo was still eloquent, and said: "Besides, talking about love hurts feelings. For a beautiful woman like Wang Ye, I am satisfied with molesting and flirting with me on weekdays, and watching and watching. There is a saying, 'Loving each other is easy, because the facial features It's not easy to get along because of the three views'. It's too troublesome to fall in love, and it's harder than solving a case."
Yang Mu: "..." Suddenly discovered that Mr. Li has the potential to be a romantic man.
Seeing that Tian was about to be talked to death by Li Luo, Yang Mu simply and forcefully brought the topic back, saying, "I'm here today, and I just want to talk to you."
"Wow," Li Luo sighed: "But you and I have already said so much, are you attracted by my personality charm?"
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu didn't answer his words, and said, "Let me remind you to leave Yuqiao immediately, the farther the better. If possible, leave King Yingchuan as well, the farther the better."
"Why?" It was rare for Li Luo to say only three words.
Yang Mu was silent for a moment, then said, "Because of the danger."
He seemed to have something to hide, and he didn't want to say more.
Li Luo smiled and said, "Because of the tattoo on my back?"
As soon as he said this, Yang Mu was shocked, obviously surprised by Li Luo.
Yang Mu said, "Do you know that you have tattoos on your back?"
"It was deduced." Li Luo was still smiling.
Yang Mu didn't seem to believe it.
Li Luo said: "Actually, I didn't know. But... you said you let me leave Yuqiao, why is Yuqiao in danger? Now several people have died in Yuqiao, all because of tattooing. But that day..."
Li Luo paused for a moment, Xie Changying accidentally tore Li Luo's clothes that day, and asked what was on Li Luo's back.
Li Luo didn't know that he had a tattoo on his back, it didn't hurt or itch, and he couldn't see it at all. At that time, he didn't understand what Xie Changying meant, and he didn't take it seriously.
But later, Xie Changying deliberately asked people to inquire about the tattooing case, and suddenly told Li Luo that Li Luo should be with him all the time.
Li Luo patted his chest, and said: "It's been said that I'm smart, so based on this, it's not difficult to deduce the reason. It seems that the tattoo on my back has a lot to say."
Yang Mu also laughed, and sighed, "You're really smart...but I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
Li Luo rolled his eyes nimbly, and said: "Although I am very smart, I have no way of knowing more about the tattoos. Why don't you hurry up and tell me, anyway, I am also your lifesaver." Where is the benefactor?"
Yang Mudao: "Mr. Li is extremely smart, I think I can check it myself, and I can definitely find it out, there is no need to rely on others."
Li Luo said: "Boss Yang, you are wrong. No matter how smart I am, there are many things that I cannot accomplish alone. You have to believe in the power of unity. Do you know what unity is? It means that if you have a penny, you can buy everything. No, but you have one hundred thousand pennies, so you can do whatever you want!"
Yang Mu: "..."
"So..." Li Luo said in a long voice, "If I want you to talk more about tattooing, I can't rely on my intelligence alone, but also rely on our lord's strength."
When he said this, Yang Mu's face suddenly changed, and he said secretly: "Oops, I got caught."
Yang Mu stood up and was about to leave, but before it was too late, he saw a white light like lightning flashing in front of him.
"Shh-"
"Ding!"
The long sword went straight to Yang Mu's neck, Yang Mu immediately drew his sword to block, the sound of metal hitting was sharp and piercing.
Li Luo covered his ears, but shouted: "Come on, my lord! Grab him! Grab him! He knows a lot of things at a glance!"
"We must have a big harvest if we catch him!"
"I'm so talkative, I made up so many words to delay time! It's really not easy for me, my lord, don't miss it!"
"Otherwise I'm sorry!"
It turned out that Li Luo had been out of shape just now, and was always molesting Yang Mu. In fact, he was delaying time, and wanted to wait for Xie Changying to come back and arrest him.
When Li Luo came out from Huang's house, he felt something was wrong, someone was always following them.There was a smell of traditional Chinese medicine, which obviously came from the front, passed him, and came from behind after a while, passing them.After a while, it came from the front again, passing by again.
Li Luo felt it was a scam, it seemed that someone was following them and kept playing passers-by beside them.
Li Luo guessed that this person was Yang Mu, and Yang Mu seemed to be very mysterious and knew many things.How could he figure out what Yang Mu knew?This is a problem.I'm afraid it's not a very smart way to torture him into a trick, so Li Luo thought of using his tricks!
Yang Mu wanted to divert the tiger away from the mountain and get Xie Changying away so that he could talk to Li Luo alone.
Li Luo followed his plan, there was no one around, only the two of them, Yang Mu was relatively relaxed, so it was easier to get out his secret.
Then Li Luo deliberately procrastinated for time, kept talking about what was there, and waited for Xie Changying to turn back, so that he could have a chance to catch Yang Mu.
In this way, isn't Yang Mu the turtle in the urn?
Li Luo couldn't help sighing: "I'm so smart!"
He said turning his head to look at Li Wuzheng, and said, "Master Li, why don't you help, you should play doubles, the chances of winning are greater!"
Li Wuzheng didn't speak, but stared at him.
Li Luo was puzzled.
Li Wuzheng said: "You actually used me, causing me to be scolded by the prince!"
Li Luo was a little embarrassed, and said, "This is necessary for a plan."
Just now Li Luo deliberately dismissed Li Wuzheng and let Li Wuzheng go after Xie Changying, but it was actually intentional.When Li Wuzheng catches up with Xie Changying, Xie Changying finds out that Li Luo is alone, so he will turn back immediately, so that he can come back in time to catch Yang Mu.
Li Wuzheng realized later that he was being used!
Li Luo pushed him twice, and said, "Lord Li, now is not the time to settle the old score, grab Yang Mu and talk, hurry up, Pikachu!"
Li Wuzheng also discovered that Yang Mu's martial arts were really good. Although he couldn't fight Yingchuan King Xie Changying, his lightness kungfu was absolutely perfect.
"My lord, I'll help you!" Li Wuzheng quickly jumped forward to help.
Li Luo rubbed his hands together and said, "Hey, I think it's hard for Yang Mu to fly with his wings this time!"
But soon, Li Luo became anxious and shouted, "Master Li! You are not helping!"
It turns out that one plus one is greater than two at any time.
Li Luo was so angry that he covered his face and muttered to himself, "It's over... This is the legendary pig teammate."
Li Wuzheng's martial arts are not bad, he thought he helped Xie Changying, and he would definitely subdue Yang Mu in no time.But Yang Mu took Li Wuzheng as a breakthrough, and Li Wuzheng became a drag instead.
Li Luo watched anxiously from the side, shouting: "Master Li, do you understand double-sidedness!"
"What are you doing kicking him so far? You think Captain Yang didn't fly far enough!"
"Master Li, do you want to panic me to death!"
Yang Mu found another opening, and jumped straight up to the top of the tree. No longer in love with fighting, he quickly rose and fell, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li Luo: "..." The cooked duck flew away!
Li Wuzheng got hit just now, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "Yang Mu is too cunning, damn it."
Xie Changying put the sword back into its sheath, and glanced at Li Wuzheng indifferently.
Li Wuzheng shrunk his neck and said, "My lord...I want to help you."
Li Luo sighed, and said, "It's over, it's over, Yang Mu ran away, faster than a rabbit, I only got a few words out of it."
Xie Changying always had an expressionless face, brushed the dust off his clothes, and just said: "Continue to go up the mountain."
They went to the mountain to inspect, and now they are only halfway there, and the destination has not yet been reached.Yang Mu was just an accident, they still had to continue up the mountain.
The three of them tossed a lot, and now they continue to go up the mountain.Li Luo just lost the time to take a sip of tea, and quickly regained his energy.And Li Wuzheng was really disappointed, he was not helping again.
Li Wuzheng walked behind, Li Luo couldn't count how many times he had sighed.
Xie Changying seemed to have gotten used to it, ignored him, and kept walking forward without taking his eyes off it.
Li Luo couldn't listen anymore, so he walked a few steps slowly, and said to Li Wuzheng, "Lord Li, don't sigh, the prince didn't blame you."
"Alas—" Li Wuzheng sighed even more when he heard it.
Li Luo smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "Why don't I tell you some jokes to make you laugh!"
Li Wuzheng didn't speak.
Li Luo didn't dislike the silence at all, thought for a while, and said, "What should I say, oh yes. There used to be a man named Xiao Ming!"
"What do you think then?"
"Xiao Ming didn't hear it!"
"Haha, are you kidding me?"
After Li Luo finished speaking, he laughed, the laughter was very hearty.Li Wuzheng was obviously stunned for a moment, it seemed that he didn't understand what his cold joke meant.
Xie Changying, who was walking in front: "..."
"Isn't it funny?" Li Luo said, "Why don't we stop telling jokes, and how about I show Master Li your palm?"
Li Wuzheng was weak and said, "You still know palmistry?"
Li Luo nodded his head like a swindler, and said, "Let me show you, it's very accurate."
Li Wuzheng wasn't interested, but he couldn't squeeze him, so he offered him his hand.
Li Luo held Li Wuzheng's hand and looked at it for a long time, the old god said: "I can tell you are a very curious person."
"Why?" Li Wuzheng asked.
"Pfft——" Li Luo didn't answer, but laughed out loud, and said, "Look, you're asking why again!"
Li Wuzheng: "..."
Xie Changying: "..."
Xie Changying's temples twitched because of Li Luo's noise, he was sure now that Li Luo didn't want to comfort the lost Li Wuzheng at all, but because mountain climbing was so boring, so Li Luo needed a pistachio...
Xie Changying couldn't stand it anymore, she turned her head and said, "It's almost there. Shut up. Let's go."
Li Luo had had enough of laughing, he chased after him and said obediently, "Oh."
They climbed up the mountain all the way, and soon saw many strong men, all transporting stones and wood, which should be used to repair the mine.
"We still need manpower here, come with me a few people."
"The timber is brought here!"
"Someone is injured, call the doctor quickly!"
Everyone on the mountain was busy, and no one noticed their appearance at all.
Li Luo observed carefully, these busy young men, many of them were tattooed.It is summer now, and the weather is already hot. They have worked hard to carry stones and wood, and they are already sweating profusely.
Of course, there are also a few people who don't have tattoos and are dressed in yamen, and they are also busy back and forth.
"My lord, it seems that the prince is coming over there!"
Finally, a few police officers saw their presence and rushed to notify the county magistrate.
It turned out that the county magistrate was really directing the reconstruction on the mountain, and he was sweating profusely. He was not wearing an official hat, and he was still carrying a burden on his shoulders, carrying water.
The county magistrate is not young anymore, he looks about 50 or [-] years old, but his body is still strong.Seeing Xie Changying and his party, he hurriedly put down his burden and ran over, knelt down and saluted.
"Your Majesty! I am far away from you! I am an official who is negligent in his duties!"
The county magistrate knelt on the ground with his body lowered. It was clearly a humble posture, but at the same time he appeared extremely magnanimous, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Magistrate Cao doesn't need to be too polite." Xie Changying waved his hands and said, "I have come to see the condition of the mine."
Magistrate Cao shook his head, it seems that the situation is not optimistic.After all, the earthquake caused the rocks to roll down, the landslide was serious, and the mine was dug too deep, so the destruction was a mess.
County magistrate Cao wanted to report the situation to King Yingchuan in detail, Li Luo left knowingly and said, "I'll go over there to have a look, I heard that the body was found there."
Xie Changying said, "Don't go too far."
He added: "Li Wuzheng followed him."
Li Wuzheng wanted to refute subconsciously, he was almost acting as a guard, but he did something wrong just now, so he nodded honestly.
Li Luo waved to Li Wuzheng and said, "Let's go, let's go over there and have a look."
Li Wuzheng followed behind like a pitiful boy, and couldn't help muttering: "It's strange! What kind of ecstasy soup did you give the prince! The prince suddenly treats you so well."
"There is no ecstasy soup, but there is personality charm." Li Luo said without shame, "Master Li, you can get to know me well, maybe you can become a rival in love with the prince."
Li Wuzheng: "..." I have never seen such a narcissistic person as Li Luo.
Xie Changying and Li Luobing separated into two groups, not far apart. Xie Changying listened to the report of the county magistrate Cao, and looked back from time to time, feeling relieved to see Li Luo's figure.
After looking back and forth for seven or eight times like this, Xie Changying suddenly realized...
I have problems.
And the problem is huge.
Xie Changying was at a loss for a while, these days he was trying to test and study Li Luo, trying to find out Li Luo's real identity.The results are almost nonexistent, but it has formed a habit.
Every day when he opened his eyes, the first thing he thought of was Li Luo.
Every day before he goes to bed, the last thing he thinks about is Li Luo.
What he thinks about most every day is Li Luo.
just like……
Bewitched.The longer we get along, the more determined Xie Changying becomes. Li Luo has problems, secrets, and evil intentions, but Li Luo is inexplicably principled.
Xie Changying could no longer understand what Li Luo was going to do, and what he was going to do.
"My lord, my lord, we are back." Li Luo walked back with a smile, followed by Li Wuzheng.
Li Wuzheng was not as reluctant as before, he seemed to be infected by Li Luo's smile, and walked back talking and laughing, and said, "My lord, how is your side?"
To be honest, sometimes Li Luo laughs very wretchedly, sometimes he laughs very badly, only very few times, when he smiles he is endearing.But he was the person around Xie Changying who liked to laugh the most.
Xie Changying has been a serious person since he was a child, and this has something to do with his past.Because the prince is unsmiling and difficult to get in touch with, others dare not laugh or cry in front of him.
No waves, lifeless.
Until Li Luo appeared...
Xie Changying's expression was still very cold, and she said, "You can go down the mountain now. What do you gain?"
Seeing that it was getting dark, if they didn't go down the mountain, they might have to stay overnight in the mountain.
Li Luo said: "We inquired about the details of the four deceased, and it turned out that they were all prisoners who came here to do coolies, and the location of the tattoo was exactly the same as Master Li said."
Li Wuzheng said: "The news I heard is of course reliable."
"But..." Li Luo said: "More details are unknown. They were all killed in the middle of the night, and they had no relatives. No one paid attention to them, so no one knew about them."
Xie Changying nodded and said, "Where is the eldest lady?"
Li Luo shook his head and said: "The body of the lady was discovered because of the collapse of the rock. But I also looked at that piece, and the rock collapsed too seriously, so there are no details left. But the body of the lady is stored People are quite cautious."
"Other than that." Xie Changying said.
Li Luo said: "Besides that, I also heard some gossip about Magistrate Cao."
"Magistrate Cao?" Xie Changying was suspicious.
Li Luo said: "Magistrate Cao is a bit pitiful. I heard that his wife died early and he did not remarry or take a concubine. His only daughter also died a few years ago, so he is left alone."
Although Yuqiao is a small place, there are mines and stones, so it is still very oily.However, Magistrate Cao is a rare honest official, he will not be greedy for a penny, and he has built the town well. If it weren't for this natural disaster, Yuqiao would be a paradise.
They talked all the way, they didn't gain much today, but Li Luo was not disappointed at all, on the contrary, he was very happy.
Xie Changying really wanted to know why Li Luo was so optimistic.
Xie Changying said: "You can still laugh if you have gained so much."
"Be more optimistic." Li Luo didn't care, and said, "Even if you are in hell, you can appreciate the devil's figure." After saying that, he giggled a few times.
Xie Changying: "..."
"However," Li Luo changed the subject and said, "Actually, there are still some discoveries. I think that the murder of the four people who died in Yu Qiao and the eldest lady should not be done by a single murderer."
"what?"
Xie Changying wasn't surprised yet, but Li Wuzheng was very surprised, and said, "What's going on, isn't it a murderer? Oh, I see, it's a copycat, right?"
Li Wuzheng is also Dali Temple Minister after all. Although he is a hands-off shopkeeper, he has seen many cases, and it is not uncommon to commit crimes by imitation.
"Whether it's an imitation or a coincidence, that might be the case." Li Luo said, "Although they all have their skins where the tattoos were cut off, they are obviously different."
"You mean saber technique?" Xie Changying narrowed his eyes.
Li Luo flattered and said, "Your Highness is so powerful, you can tell at a glance."
Xie Changying did notice it, but he didn't think about it.
Li Luo said: "According to everyone's narration, the skin and flesh cut off by the four dead prisoners are relatively smooth. They should be cut off by experts. At least they are better at using weapons and are not messy. But the body of the eldest lady is not Too much the same."
A piece of flesh was cut off from the Da Furen's arm, and the cut was very rough and uneven.
Li Luo said: "It's like a person who can peel pears and a person who can't peel pears. The pears they peel are not the same at all."
Xie Changying nodded and said, "That's true."
"But... what does this mean?" Li Wuzheng was confused and poured cold water on his face unceremoniously.
Li Luo: "..." Sure enough, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black, Master Li will complain.
As Li Wuzheng said, this can't explain anything, it can't tell them who the murderer is, and it even adds a mystery, making the case even more confusing.
When they walked back to Huang's house, they were going to exhaust Li Luo to death.
Li Luo waved his hands and said, "I'm almost exhausted, I'll go back to rest and catch up on sleep, call me after dinner."
"Finished?"
Xie Changying looked at him.
Li Luo nodded and said, "Yes, I won't eat dinner, call me after you finish."
"What do you want to do?" Li Wuzheng asked curiously.
Li Luo waved to them, and said like a thief: "Of course it's...the night-time visit to Mrs. Huang's room!"
Xie Changying: "..."
Li Wuzheng: "..."
What Li Luo meant was that the three of them formed a group to be prodigal sons...
"I won't go." Xie Changying said with a dark face.
Li Wuzheng also flatly refused, saying, "I'm not going either."
"You guys are full of dirty minds." Li Luo said righteously, "We are going to investigate the case. Madam Huang must have something wrong, and we must investigate secretly. You are all thinking of something messy!"
Li Luo lectured them, then clapped his hands and entered the room, and went to sleep.
Xie Changying was also going to take a rest, but he had to take a bath, so he asked a servant to bring hot water.
Li Luo slept through the middle of the night, woke up from hunger, his stomach was rumbling, and then he opened his eyes.
Li Luo turned over and sat up. Although it was dark now, it was still a bit too early to visit at night, and I don't know if Mrs. Huang had a rest.
Li Luo changed his clothes, and hurriedly ran to the next door to knock on the door.
Someone answered the door, but it was not Xie Changying, but Li Wuzheng.It seems that Li Wuzheng has come here long ago.
Li Luo ran in with a smile and asked, "When are you leaving?"
Xie Changying was still a little reluctant to go, going to visit the woman's house in the middle of the night, it sounded very strange no matter what.
But if Xie Changying didn't go, Li Luo and Li Wuzheng would definitely be in trouble.
Xie Changying thought for a while, raised his hand to rub the bulging forehead, and said, "Wait a little longer."
Seeing that the hour had passed, and the hour was about the same, the three of them sneaked into Mrs. Huang's room.
I heard that Mrs. Huang and Master Huang are sleeping together today, looking from afar, the lights in the room have not been turned off, and the two of them are not asleep.
Li Wuzheng was embarrassed, the husband and wife hadn't slept so late, what could they do?
Li Wuzheng said: "Let's not go!"
Xie Changying completely agreed.
Li Luo said: "It's all here, listen to it first, if you hear something that is not harmonious, you can leave immediately, okay?"
Xie Changying didn't want to hear it at all.
Li Luo touched the corner of the wall, and sure enough, he heard voices in the room, there was no dissonance, it was Master Huang talking to Mrs. Huang.
Master Huang said: "It's better to ask someone to drive Ah Hu away! Even though he is the butler's distant nephew, but he framed you like this..."
Mrs. Huang said: "Master! Absolutely not!"
"Why not?" Master Huang asked.
Mrs. Huang said: "Master, think about it, Ah Hu framed me for killing someone, and now he is driving away Ah Hu, what outsiders say, maybe they think our Huang family is guilty! What do those unreasonable people know? Yu, the reputation of the Huang family will be damaged. Besides..."
Mrs. Huang said again: "Ah Hu tried so hard to frame me, maybe he actually killed Da Furen and wanted to put the blame on me. You must not let him go now, you must keep him."
"What you said makes sense." Mr. Huang seemed to be persuaded.
"Sir, don't think about it too much, I'm the one to do everything, I'll pour you a glass of water, drink it to calm your nerves, and then go to bed!" Madam Huang said.
Master Huang said: "You still know the cold and the hot."
As the candlelight flickered, Li Luo could vaguely see a shadow outside. Mrs. Huang probably got up to pour water outside, and then walked inside again.
Immediately after...
"How is this going?"
"Blood! A lot of blood!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah--"
Master Huang's exclamation and Mrs. Huang's scream came from the room.
Li Luo eavesdropped on the corner of the wall, and was almost deaf from them, so he quickly covered his ears and whispered, "What's going on?"
"Let's go first." Xie Changying grabbed Li Luo, and immediately hid behind the big tree, so as not to be discovered by the servants who came to check the situation.
While Mr. Huang and his wife were talking, something strange happened.The screams attracted many servants, everyone went to check the situation, and when they entered the room to take a closer look, they all gasped.
Li Luo and the others pretended to be the last to go in, squeezed into the inner room, and saw that the bed was covered in blood, and a dagger was stuck on the pillow in the back.
The bloodstains were fresh, and the room was filled with the stench of blood, and the color was still bright.
Master Huang was trembling with fright, and Mrs. Huang also turned pale.
Li Luo asked: "What happened?"
Master Huang said: "Evil, evil! My wife and I were just getting ready to rest, and my wife went outside to pour water for me..."
Li Luo knew that he was outside listening to the wall just now.
Then just turning his head around, Master Huang suddenly found that the clean bed was covered with blood, and the blood dripped down, leaving him all over!
Master Huang was terrified and yelled in horror, and Mrs. Huang who came back was also terrified and yelled out.
Mr. Huang said: "It's evil! It was clean just now, but in a blink of an eye it was full of blood! Is... is it haunted? Also, there is this dagger... What is going on, it suddenly appeared ,This this……"
The servants felt creepy when they heard it, and they all started talking about it.
"Is it really haunted?"
"Yesterday... Ah Hu just witnessed such a thing yesterday."
What happened to Mrs. Huang has already caused the entire Huang family to panic, and today Mrs. Huang's bed was bleeding for no reason, which is even more shocking.
"My God, could it be that the eldest lady came back to seek revenge?"
"My lord disappeared so strangely back then, maybe he didn't elope."
"Then... Madam Huang..."
The two evil incidents all pointed to Mrs. Huang, and the servants had to think more about it.
Could it be that Mrs. Huang didn't steal or elope at all, but was killed by Mrs. Huang?
Mrs. Huang used to be the maid of the eldest lady. Many people have heard that Mrs. Huang is jealous of the eldest lady and wants to live a life as a hostess.
Later, as soon as the eldest lady died, Master Huang married Mrs. Huang. As expected, Mrs. Huang flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix, becoming the mistress of the Huang family.
It's all too coincidental...
"What are you muttering about!" Mrs. Huang got angry, and said, "Shut up!"
"What are you mumbling about! Shut up!"
"I will pull out the tongue of anyone who dares to say one more word!"
Mr. Huang continued to comfort him: "Madam, don't panic! Madam, don't be afraid! Someone must be playing tricks. We must not fall into his tricks!"
"Is it Ah Hu?" Master Huang immediately thought of Ah Hu who had a problem earlier, and said, "Where is Ah Hu? What did he do just now?"
As soon as the servants heard this, someone said: "The master is not Ah Hu. We were all together just now and were preparing to rest. Five or six people can testify. It is not Ah Hu who made a fool of himself."
"Who else could it be if it's not Ah Hu?"
"I'm afraid it's really haunted. A ghost has haunted Madam!"
The voice of whispering sounded again, Madam Huang was even more angry when she heard it, and said: "Who said haunted? Stand up for me!"
Where anyone dared to stand up, the servants did not dare to say more, and they were all kicked out of the room soon, so they had to go back to rest temporarily.
Li Luo and the others also came out, it seems that today they can no longer visit at night, they can only talk about it another day.
"What? Another day?!" Li Wuzheng yelled, "Farewell, are you addicted to peeping?"
Li Wuzheng was reluctant, thinking that it would be over once.
Li Luo said: "If you want to find out the case, you must have an indomitable spirit, and you can't give up halfway."
Li Wuzheng: "..."
"Go back." Xie Changying said lightly.
Li Wuzheng followed behind, saying, "This Huang family is really evil."
Li Luo asked, "Was that human blood just now?"
"Human blood? How is that possible?" Li Wuzheng said, "If you smell it, you know it's not human blood, it's chicken blood."
"Chicken blood?" Li Luo said, "It turns out that chicken blood smells like this, no wonder it smells weird. That's because someone intentionally frightened Mrs. Huang."
"It should be." Li Wuzheng nodded.
After some tossing, the three returned to the courtyard.Li Wuzheng felt lazy and said, "I'm going back to rest first."
"Wait." Xie Changying called to stop him.
Li Wuzheng said: "What other orders does the lord have?"
Xie Changying said: "Go ask someone to prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."
Li Wuzheng was speechless for a while, he knew that Xie Changying had a cleanliness addiction, and seeing so much chicken blood just now, he might have committed a cleanliness addiction.
Li Wuzheng nodded and said, "I'll go, I'll go right away."
"Wait." Xie Changying stopped him again.
Li Wuzheng said: "What's the matter, my lord?"
Xie Changying said: "Also prepare hot water for Li Luo, let him take a bath."
"What?!" Li Wuzheng opened his eyes wide, the prince wanted Li Luo to take a bath, and it was still midnight, this...
Could it be that the lord wants to be with Li Luo...?
Xie Changying looked indifferent, and said: "He didn't take a shower when he came back from the mountain, and this king just feels bad for him just thinking about it."
Li Wuzheng heaved a sigh of relief, and what he said was true, he glanced at Li Luo with the same contempt, and said, "Don't you take a bath all day?"
Li Luo said: "Isn't there no chance, then Master Lao Li will bring me some buckets of hot water."
Li Wuzheng asked someone to prepare hot water, delivered it to Xie Changying and Li Luo's rooms respectively, and then went back to sleep.
Hot water had already been delivered to the room, but Xie Changying didn't intend to undress and take a bath.
He paced a few steps in the room, left and right, with rare hesitation on his expressionless face.
Xie Changying walked a few more steps with her hands behind her back, and said in a low voice, "Go...or not?"
He is making a difficult choice.
In fact, Xie Changying asked Li Wuzheng to prepare hot water for Li Luo, not simply because he disliked that Li Luo was too dirty if he didn't take a bath.real purpose...
Xie Changying wanted to take a closer look at the red tattoo on Li Luo's back.
And the red tattoo on Li Luo's back was too hidden, unless he took off his clothes, he would never see it.
If Xie Changying approached him openly and honestly, Li Luo would definitely tease him violently with a smile on his face.Xie Changying had a headache just thinking about it.
So Xie Changying decided that it would be wiser not to look at the tattoos openly, but to sneak around.
So Xie Changying cleverly thought of taking a bath.
But right now, all he needs to do is peek at Li Luo taking a bath...
When the matter came, Xie Changying hesitated.Although things happen for a reason, things like peeping in the shower
Li Luo didn't show any surprise, but said: "Catcher Yang, it's really great that you're not dead."
On the contrary, Yang Mu was a little surprised. The two stood facing each other and said, "You don't want me to die?"
Li Luo nodded sincerely, and said: "Of course, Detective Yang is so tall and handsome, so good-looking, it's a pity to die."
Yang Mu: "..." Just after saying a few words, the conversation became inexplicably difficult.
"Actually..." Li Luo didn't think it was shameful to be silent, and said with a smile, "When I left the yamen, I had some doubts whether you were really dead."
"Oh?" Yang Mu asked, "Why do you doubt?"
Li Luo said, "Because of the little prince."
Yang Mu repeated: "Prince?"
"Yeah!" Li Luo explained: "You don't know, you committed suicide by leaving a book, and after the little prince heard about it, he cried until his heart broke. It was so tragic, I couldn't bear to see it."
Yang Mu was silent for a while.
Li Luo added: "You know the prince very well. Although the prince is a little domineering, a little willful, a little impulsive, a little reckless, a little..."
"Young Master Li..."
Li Luo was a bit of a failure to suppress and then raise, Yang Mu couldn't listen anymore, and said: "It's better to make a long story short."
"Oh……"
Li Luo had no choice but to simply say: "Anyway, the little prince is very emotional, you died, partly because of him, how could he not be sad? I thought he would stay there for ten and a half days Months, to mourn you. But who would have thought..."
The little prince Xie Tang left before dawn the next day.
"Tsk tsk..."
Li Luo curled his lips exaggeratedly, and said: "What made the little prince suddenly change his mind and leave there? I think it was the prince who found out that he was cheated! It's so miserable..."
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu stood silently for a moment, and then said: "Actually, I didn't lie. At that time, I didn't remember well, I was very desperate, and I didn't want to hurt others, so I planned to commit suicide. I wrote the letter myself. "
"We have confirmed the handwriting." Li Luo nodded: "From the notes, you were not in a calm mood at the time. Could it be that...someone saved you?"
Yang Mu smiled and said, "Master Li, you are really smart, you can guess everything right."
Li Luo was unhappy when he heard it, and said: "I'm really smart, so I didn't guess, but reasoning. It's too loose to say guess."
Yang Mu didn't talk to him, saying, "It is true that someone saved me."
"Wow—" Li Luo sighed, his eyes lit up, and said, "That person..."
Yang Mu didn't wait for him to continue, and said decisively: "I won't tell you who that person is."
"Who asked you this." Li Luo said with disgust on his face, "Catcher Yang, we have known each other for a while, and you don't know me too well. I want to ask, the expert who saved you , Is he beautiful? Beautiful or not!"
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu no longer knew how he was going to face Li Luo, Li Luo never played cards according to common sense.
Yang Mu felt oppressed when he appeared in front of Li Luo, obviously he had the upper hand.And now...
Yang Mu felt that he was being teased by Li Luo.
Yang Mu wanted to win back the game, and said, "Mr. Li is so obsessed, isn't he afraid that King Yingchuan will be jealous?"
"Look at what you said." Li Luo said with a smile: "But it's true. I miss the prince three times in the morning and four times in the evening. It's true that it's going on and on, and I'm touched."
Yang Mu: "..."
Li Luo continued: "Besides, the prince threatened me, doubted me, tempted me, seduced me, even if he didn't like me, how could he be jealous?"
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu inexplicably wanted to ask, what happened to sex/seduction?
Li Luo was still eloquent, and said: "Besides, talking about love hurts feelings. For a beautiful woman like Wang Ye, I am satisfied with molesting and flirting with me on weekdays, and watching and watching. There is a saying, 'Loving each other is easy, because the facial features It's not easy to get along because of the three views'. It's too troublesome to fall in love, and it's harder than solving a case."
Yang Mu: "..." Suddenly discovered that Mr. Li has the potential to be a romantic man.
Seeing that Tian was about to be talked to death by Li Luo, Yang Mu simply and forcefully brought the topic back, saying, "I'm here today, and I just want to talk to you."
"Wow," Li Luo sighed: "But you and I have already said so much, are you attracted by my personality charm?"
Yang Mu: "..."
Yang Mu didn't answer his words, and said, "Let me remind you to leave Yuqiao immediately, the farther the better. If possible, leave King Yingchuan as well, the farther the better."
"Why?" It was rare for Li Luo to say only three words.
Yang Mu was silent for a moment, then said, "Because of the danger."
He seemed to have something to hide, and he didn't want to say more.
Li Luo smiled and said, "Because of the tattoo on my back?"
As soon as he said this, Yang Mu was shocked, obviously surprised by Li Luo.
Yang Mu said, "Do you know that you have tattoos on your back?"
"It was deduced." Li Luo was still smiling.
Yang Mu didn't seem to believe it.
Li Luo said: "Actually, I didn't know. But... you said you let me leave Yuqiao, why is Yuqiao in danger? Now several people have died in Yuqiao, all because of tattooing. But that day..."
Li Luo paused for a moment, Xie Changying accidentally tore Li Luo's clothes that day, and asked what was on Li Luo's back.
Li Luo didn't know that he had a tattoo on his back, it didn't hurt or itch, and he couldn't see it at all. At that time, he didn't understand what Xie Changying meant, and he didn't take it seriously.
But later, Xie Changying deliberately asked people to inquire about the tattooing case, and suddenly told Li Luo that Li Luo should be with him all the time.
Li Luo patted his chest, and said: "It's been said that I'm smart, so based on this, it's not difficult to deduce the reason. It seems that the tattoo on my back has a lot to say."
Yang Mu also laughed, and sighed, "You're really smart...but I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
Li Luo rolled his eyes nimbly, and said: "Although I am very smart, I have no way of knowing more about the tattoos. Why don't you hurry up and tell me, anyway, I am also your lifesaver." Where is the benefactor?"
Yang Mudao: "Mr. Li is extremely smart, I think I can check it myself, and I can definitely find it out, there is no need to rely on others."
Li Luo said: "Boss Yang, you are wrong. No matter how smart I am, there are many things that I cannot accomplish alone. You have to believe in the power of unity. Do you know what unity is? It means that if you have a penny, you can buy everything. No, but you have one hundred thousand pennies, so you can do whatever you want!"
Yang Mu: "..."
"So..." Li Luo said in a long voice, "If I want you to talk more about tattooing, I can't rely on my intelligence alone, but also rely on our lord's strength."
When he said this, Yang Mu's face suddenly changed, and he said secretly: "Oops, I got caught."
Yang Mu stood up and was about to leave, but before it was too late, he saw a white light like lightning flashing in front of him.
"Shh-"
"Ding!"
The long sword went straight to Yang Mu's neck, Yang Mu immediately drew his sword to block, the sound of metal hitting was sharp and piercing.
Li Luo covered his ears, but shouted: "Come on, my lord! Grab him! Grab him! He knows a lot of things at a glance!"
"We must have a big harvest if we catch him!"
"I'm so talkative, I made up so many words to delay time! It's really not easy for me, my lord, don't miss it!"
"Otherwise I'm sorry!"
It turned out that Li Luo had been out of shape just now, and was always molesting Yang Mu. In fact, he was delaying time, and wanted to wait for Xie Changying to come back and arrest him.
When Li Luo came out from Huang's house, he felt something was wrong, someone was always following them.There was a smell of traditional Chinese medicine, which obviously came from the front, passed him, and came from behind after a while, passing them.After a while, it came from the front again, passing by again.
Li Luo felt it was a scam, it seemed that someone was following them and kept playing passers-by beside them.
Li Luo guessed that this person was Yang Mu, and Yang Mu seemed to be very mysterious and knew many things.How could he figure out what Yang Mu knew?This is a problem.I'm afraid it's not a very smart way to torture him into a trick, so Li Luo thought of using his tricks!
Yang Mu wanted to divert the tiger away from the mountain and get Xie Changying away so that he could talk to Li Luo alone.
Li Luo followed his plan, there was no one around, only the two of them, Yang Mu was relatively relaxed, so it was easier to get out his secret.
Then Li Luo deliberately procrastinated for time, kept talking about what was there, and waited for Xie Changying to turn back, so that he could have a chance to catch Yang Mu.
In this way, isn't Yang Mu the turtle in the urn?
Li Luo couldn't help sighing: "I'm so smart!"
He said turning his head to look at Li Wuzheng, and said, "Master Li, why don't you help, you should play doubles, the chances of winning are greater!"
Li Wuzheng didn't speak, but stared at him.
Li Luo was puzzled.
Li Wuzheng said: "You actually used me, causing me to be scolded by the prince!"
Li Luo was a little embarrassed, and said, "This is necessary for a plan."
Just now Li Luo deliberately dismissed Li Wuzheng and let Li Wuzheng go after Xie Changying, but it was actually intentional.When Li Wuzheng catches up with Xie Changying, Xie Changying finds out that Li Luo is alone, so he will turn back immediately, so that he can come back in time to catch Yang Mu.
Li Wuzheng realized later that he was being used!
Li Luo pushed him twice, and said, "Lord Li, now is not the time to settle the old score, grab Yang Mu and talk, hurry up, Pikachu!"
Li Wuzheng also discovered that Yang Mu's martial arts were really good. Although he couldn't fight Yingchuan King Xie Changying, his lightness kungfu was absolutely perfect.
"My lord, I'll help you!" Li Wuzheng quickly jumped forward to help.
Li Luo rubbed his hands together and said, "Hey, I think it's hard for Yang Mu to fly with his wings this time!"
But soon, Li Luo became anxious and shouted, "Master Li! You are not helping!"
It turns out that one plus one is greater than two at any time.
Li Luo was so angry that he covered his face and muttered to himself, "It's over... This is the legendary pig teammate."
Li Wuzheng's martial arts are not bad, he thought he helped Xie Changying, and he would definitely subdue Yang Mu in no time.But Yang Mu took Li Wuzheng as a breakthrough, and Li Wuzheng became a drag instead.
Li Luo watched anxiously from the side, shouting: "Master Li, do you understand double-sidedness!"
"What are you doing kicking him so far? You think Captain Yang didn't fly far enough!"
"Master Li, do you want to panic me to death!"
Yang Mu found another opening, and jumped straight up to the top of the tree. No longer in love with fighting, he quickly rose and fell, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li Luo: "..." The cooked duck flew away!
Li Wuzheng got hit just now, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "Yang Mu is too cunning, damn it."
Xie Changying put the sword back into its sheath, and glanced at Li Wuzheng indifferently.
Li Wuzheng shrunk his neck and said, "My lord...I want to help you."
Li Luo sighed, and said, "It's over, it's over, Yang Mu ran away, faster than a rabbit, I only got a few words out of it."
Xie Changying always had an expressionless face, brushed the dust off his clothes, and just said: "Continue to go up the mountain."
They went to the mountain to inspect, and now they are only halfway there, and the destination has not yet been reached.Yang Mu was just an accident, they still had to continue up the mountain.
The three of them tossed a lot, and now they continue to go up the mountain.Li Luo just lost the time to take a sip of tea, and quickly regained his energy.And Li Wuzheng was really disappointed, he was not helping again.
Li Wuzheng walked behind, Li Luo couldn't count how many times he had sighed.
Xie Changying seemed to have gotten used to it, ignored him, and kept walking forward without taking his eyes off it.
Li Luo couldn't listen anymore, so he walked a few steps slowly, and said to Li Wuzheng, "Lord Li, don't sigh, the prince didn't blame you."
"Alas—" Li Wuzheng sighed even more when he heard it.
Li Luo smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "Why don't I tell you some jokes to make you laugh!"
Li Wuzheng didn't speak.
Li Luo didn't dislike the silence at all, thought for a while, and said, "What should I say, oh yes. There used to be a man named Xiao Ming!"
"What do you think then?"
"Xiao Ming didn't hear it!"
"Haha, are you kidding me?"
After Li Luo finished speaking, he laughed, the laughter was very hearty.Li Wuzheng was obviously stunned for a moment, it seemed that he didn't understand what his cold joke meant.
Xie Changying, who was walking in front: "..."
"Isn't it funny?" Li Luo said, "Why don't we stop telling jokes, and how about I show Master Li your palm?"
Li Wuzheng was weak and said, "You still know palmistry?"
Li Luo nodded his head like a swindler, and said, "Let me show you, it's very accurate."
Li Wuzheng wasn't interested, but he couldn't squeeze him, so he offered him his hand.
Li Luo held Li Wuzheng's hand and looked at it for a long time, the old god said: "I can tell you are a very curious person."
"Why?" Li Wuzheng asked.
"Pfft——" Li Luo didn't answer, but laughed out loud, and said, "Look, you're asking why again!"
Li Wuzheng: "..."
Xie Changying: "..."
Xie Changying's temples twitched because of Li Luo's noise, he was sure now that Li Luo didn't want to comfort the lost Li Wuzheng at all, but because mountain climbing was so boring, so Li Luo needed a pistachio...
Xie Changying couldn't stand it anymore, she turned her head and said, "It's almost there. Shut up. Let's go."
Li Luo had had enough of laughing, he chased after him and said obediently, "Oh."
They climbed up the mountain all the way, and soon saw many strong men, all transporting stones and wood, which should be used to repair the mine.
"We still need manpower here, come with me a few people."
"The timber is brought here!"
"Someone is injured, call the doctor quickly!"
Everyone on the mountain was busy, and no one noticed their appearance at all.
Li Luo observed carefully, these busy young men, many of them were tattooed.It is summer now, and the weather is already hot. They have worked hard to carry stones and wood, and they are already sweating profusely.
Of course, there are also a few people who don't have tattoos and are dressed in yamen, and they are also busy back and forth.
"My lord, it seems that the prince is coming over there!"
Finally, a few police officers saw their presence and rushed to notify the county magistrate.
It turned out that the county magistrate was really directing the reconstruction on the mountain, and he was sweating profusely. He was not wearing an official hat, and he was still carrying a burden on his shoulders, carrying water.
The county magistrate is not young anymore, he looks about 50 or [-] years old, but his body is still strong.Seeing Xie Changying and his party, he hurriedly put down his burden and ran over, knelt down and saluted.
"Your Majesty! I am far away from you! I am an official who is negligent in his duties!"
The county magistrate knelt on the ground with his body lowered. It was clearly a humble posture, but at the same time he appeared extremely magnanimous, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Magistrate Cao doesn't need to be too polite." Xie Changying waved his hands and said, "I have come to see the condition of the mine."
Magistrate Cao shook his head, it seems that the situation is not optimistic.After all, the earthquake caused the rocks to roll down, the landslide was serious, and the mine was dug too deep, so the destruction was a mess.
County magistrate Cao wanted to report the situation to King Yingchuan in detail, Li Luo left knowingly and said, "I'll go over there to have a look, I heard that the body was found there."
Xie Changying said, "Don't go too far."
He added: "Li Wuzheng followed him."
Li Wuzheng wanted to refute subconsciously, he was almost acting as a guard, but he did something wrong just now, so he nodded honestly.
Li Luo waved to Li Wuzheng and said, "Let's go, let's go over there and have a look."
Li Wuzheng followed behind like a pitiful boy, and couldn't help muttering: "It's strange! What kind of ecstasy soup did you give the prince! The prince suddenly treats you so well."
"There is no ecstasy soup, but there is personality charm." Li Luo said without shame, "Master Li, you can get to know me well, maybe you can become a rival in love with the prince."
Li Wuzheng: "..." I have never seen such a narcissistic person as Li Luo.
Xie Changying and Li Luobing separated into two groups, not far apart. Xie Changying listened to the report of the county magistrate Cao, and looked back from time to time, feeling relieved to see Li Luo's figure.
After looking back and forth for seven or eight times like this, Xie Changying suddenly realized...
I have problems.
And the problem is huge.
Xie Changying was at a loss for a while, these days he was trying to test and study Li Luo, trying to find out Li Luo's real identity.The results are almost nonexistent, but it has formed a habit.
Every day when he opened his eyes, the first thing he thought of was Li Luo.
Every day before he goes to bed, the last thing he thinks about is Li Luo.
What he thinks about most every day is Li Luo.
just like……
Bewitched.The longer we get along, the more determined Xie Changying becomes. Li Luo has problems, secrets, and evil intentions, but Li Luo is inexplicably principled.
Xie Changying could no longer understand what Li Luo was going to do, and what he was going to do.
"My lord, my lord, we are back." Li Luo walked back with a smile, followed by Li Wuzheng.
Li Wuzheng was not as reluctant as before, he seemed to be infected by Li Luo's smile, and walked back talking and laughing, and said, "My lord, how is your side?"
To be honest, sometimes Li Luo laughs very wretchedly, sometimes he laughs very badly, only very few times, when he smiles he is endearing.But he was the person around Xie Changying who liked to laugh the most.
Xie Changying has been a serious person since he was a child, and this has something to do with his past.Because the prince is unsmiling and difficult to get in touch with, others dare not laugh or cry in front of him.
No waves, lifeless.
Until Li Luo appeared...
Xie Changying's expression was still very cold, and she said, "You can go down the mountain now. What do you gain?"
Seeing that it was getting dark, if they didn't go down the mountain, they might have to stay overnight in the mountain.
Li Luo said: "We inquired about the details of the four deceased, and it turned out that they were all prisoners who came here to do coolies, and the location of the tattoo was exactly the same as Master Li said."
Li Wuzheng said: "The news I heard is of course reliable."
"But..." Li Luo said: "More details are unknown. They were all killed in the middle of the night, and they had no relatives. No one paid attention to them, so no one knew about them."
Xie Changying nodded and said, "Where is the eldest lady?"
Li Luo shook his head and said: "The body of the lady was discovered because of the collapse of the rock. But I also looked at that piece, and the rock collapsed too seriously, so there are no details left. But the body of the lady is stored People are quite cautious."
"Other than that." Xie Changying said.
Li Luo said: "Besides that, I also heard some gossip about Magistrate Cao."
"Magistrate Cao?" Xie Changying was suspicious.
Li Luo said: "Magistrate Cao is a bit pitiful. I heard that his wife died early and he did not remarry or take a concubine. His only daughter also died a few years ago, so he is left alone."
Although Yuqiao is a small place, there are mines and stones, so it is still very oily.However, Magistrate Cao is a rare honest official, he will not be greedy for a penny, and he has built the town well. If it weren't for this natural disaster, Yuqiao would be a paradise.
They talked all the way, they didn't gain much today, but Li Luo was not disappointed at all, on the contrary, he was very happy.
Xie Changying really wanted to know why Li Luo was so optimistic.
Xie Changying said: "You can still laugh if you have gained so much."
"Be more optimistic." Li Luo didn't care, and said, "Even if you are in hell, you can appreciate the devil's figure." After saying that, he giggled a few times.
Xie Changying: "..."
"However," Li Luo changed the subject and said, "Actually, there are still some discoveries. I think that the murder of the four people who died in Yu Qiao and the eldest lady should not be done by a single murderer."
"what?"
Xie Changying wasn't surprised yet, but Li Wuzheng was very surprised, and said, "What's going on, isn't it a murderer? Oh, I see, it's a copycat, right?"
Li Wuzheng is also Dali Temple Minister after all. Although he is a hands-off shopkeeper, he has seen many cases, and it is not uncommon to commit crimes by imitation.
"Whether it's an imitation or a coincidence, that might be the case." Li Luo said, "Although they all have their skins where the tattoos were cut off, they are obviously different."
"You mean saber technique?" Xie Changying narrowed his eyes.
Li Luo flattered and said, "Your Highness is so powerful, you can tell at a glance."
Xie Changying did notice it, but he didn't think about it.
Li Luo said: "According to everyone's narration, the skin and flesh cut off by the four dead prisoners are relatively smooth. They should be cut off by experts. At least they are better at using weapons and are not messy. But the body of the eldest lady is not Too much the same."
A piece of flesh was cut off from the Da Furen's arm, and the cut was very rough and uneven.
Li Luo said: "It's like a person who can peel pears and a person who can't peel pears. The pears they peel are not the same at all."
Xie Changying nodded and said, "That's true."
"But... what does this mean?" Li Wuzheng was confused and poured cold water on his face unceremoniously.
Li Luo: "..." Sure enough, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black, Master Li will complain.
As Li Wuzheng said, this can't explain anything, it can't tell them who the murderer is, and it even adds a mystery, making the case even more confusing.
When they walked back to Huang's house, they were going to exhaust Li Luo to death.
Li Luo waved his hands and said, "I'm almost exhausted, I'll go back to rest and catch up on sleep, call me after dinner."
"Finished?"
Xie Changying looked at him.
Li Luo nodded and said, "Yes, I won't eat dinner, call me after you finish."
"What do you want to do?" Li Wuzheng asked curiously.
Li Luo waved to them, and said like a thief: "Of course it's...the night-time visit to Mrs. Huang's room!"
Xie Changying: "..."
Li Wuzheng: "..."
What Li Luo meant was that the three of them formed a group to be prodigal sons...
"I won't go." Xie Changying said with a dark face.
Li Wuzheng also flatly refused, saying, "I'm not going either."
"You guys are full of dirty minds." Li Luo said righteously, "We are going to investigate the case. Madam Huang must have something wrong, and we must investigate secretly. You are all thinking of something messy!"
Li Luo lectured them, then clapped his hands and entered the room, and went to sleep.
Xie Changying was also going to take a rest, but he had to take a bath, so he asked a servant to bring hot water.
Li Luo slept through the middle of the night, woke up from hunger, his stomach was rumbling, and then he opened his eyes.
Li Luo turned over and sat up. Although it was dark now, it was still a bit too early to visit at night, and I don't know if Mrs. Huang had a rest.
Li Luo changed his clothes, and hurriedly ran to the next door to knock on the door.
Someone answered the door, but it was not Xie Changying, but Li Wuzheng.It seems that Li Wuzheng has come here long ago.
Li Luo ran in with a smile and asked, "When are you leaving?"
Xie Changying was still a little reluctant to go, going to visit the woman's house in the middle of the night, it sounded very strange no matter what.
But if Xie Changying didn't go, Li Luo and Li Wuzheng would definitely be in trouble.
Xie Changying thought for a while, raised his hand to rub the bulging forehead, and said, "Wait a little longer."
Seeing that the hour had passed, and the hour was about the same, the three of them sneaked into Mrs. Huang's room.
I heard that Mrs. Huang and Master Huang are sleeping together today, looking from afar, the lights in the room have not been turned off, and the two of them are not asleep.
Li Wuzheng was embarrassed, the husband and wife hadn't slept so late, what could they do?
Li Wuzheng said: "Let's not go!"
Xie Changying completely agreed.
Li Luo said: "It's all here, listen to it first, if you hear something that is not harmonious, you can leave immediately, okay?"
Xie Changying didn't want to hear it at all.
Li Luo touched the corner of the wall, and sure enough, he heard voices in the room, there was no dissonance, it was Master Huang talking to Mrs. Huang.
Master Huang said: "It's better to ask someone to drive Ah Hu away! Even though he is the butler's distant nephew, but he framed you like this..."
Mrs. Huang said: "Master! Absolutely not!"
"Why not?" Master Huang asked.
Mrs. Huang said: "Master, think about it, Ah Hu framed me for killing someone, and now he is driving away Ah Hu, what outsiders say, maybe they think our Huang family is guilty! What do those unreasonable people know? Yu, the reputation of the Huang family will be damaged. Besides..."
Mrs. Huang said again: "Ah Hu tried so hard to frame me, maybe he actually killed Da Furen and wanted to put the blame on me. You must not let him go now, you must keep him."
"What you said makes sense." Mr. Huang seemed to be persuaded.
"Sir, don't think about it too much, I'm the one to do everything, I'll pour you a glass of water, drink it to calm your nerves, and then go to bed!" Madam Huang said.
Master Huang said: "You still know the cold and the hot."
As the candlelight flickered, Li Luo could vaguely see a shadow outside. Mrs. Huang probably got up to pour water outside, and then walked inside again.
Immediately after...
"How is this going?"
"Blood! A lot of blood!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah--"
Master Huang's exclamation and Mrs. Huang's scream came from the room.
Li Luo eavesdropped on the corner of the wall, and was almost deaf from them, so he quickly covered his ears and whispered, "What's going on?"
"Let's go first." Xie Changying grabbed Li Luo, and immediately hid behind the big tree, so as not to be discovered by the servants who came to check the situation.
While Mr. Huang and his wife were talking, something strange happened.The screams attracted many servants, everyone went to check the situation, and when they entered the room to take a closer look, they all gasped.
Li Luo and the others pretended to be the last to go in, squeezed into the inner room, and saw that the bed was covered in blood, and a dagger was stuck on the pillow in the back.
The bloodstains were fresh, and the room was filled with the stench of blood, and the color was still bright.
Master Huang was trembling with fright, and Mrs. Huang also turned pale.
Li Luo asked: "What happened?"
Master Huang said: "Evil, evil! My wife and I were just getting ready to rest, and my wife went outside to pour water for me..."
Li Luo knew that he was outside listening to the wall just now.
Then just turning his head around, Master Huang suddenly found that the clean bed was covered with blood, and the blood dripped down, leaving him all over!
Master Huang was terrified and yelled in horror, and Mrs. Huang who came back was also terrified and yelled out.
Mr. Huang said: "It's evil! It was clean just now, but in a blink of an eye it was full of blood! Is... is it haunted? Also, there is this dagger... What is going on, it suddenly appeared ,This this……"
The servants felt creepy when they heard it, and they all started talking about it.
"Is it really haunted?"
"Yesterday... Ah Hu just witnessed such a thing yesterday."
What happened to Mrs. Huang has already caused the entire Huang family to panic, and today Mrs. Huang's bed was bleeding for no reason, which is even more shocking.
"My God, could it be that the eldest lady came back to seek revenge?"
"My lord disappeared so strangely back then, maybe he didn't elope."
"Then... Madam Huang..."
The two evil incidents all pointed to Mrs. Huang, and the servants had to think more about it.
Could it be that Mrs. Huang didn't steal or elope at all, but was killed by Mrs. Huang?
Mrs. Huang used to be the maid of the eldest lady. Many people have heard that Mrs. Huang is jealous of the eldest lady and wants to live a life as a hostess.
Later, as soon as the eldest lady died, Master Huang married Mrs. Huang. As expected, Mrs. Huang flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix, becoming the mistress of the Huang family.
It's all too coincidental...
"What are you muttering about!" Mrs. Huang got angry, and said, "Shut up!"
"What are you mumbling about! Shut up!"
"I will pull out the tongue of anyone who dares to say one more word!"
Mr. Huang continued to comfort him: "Madam, don't panic! Madam, don't be afraid! Someone must be playing tricks. We must not fall into his tricks!"
"Is it Ah Hu?" Master Huang immediately thought of Ah Hu who had a problem earlier, and said, "Where is Ah Hu? What did he do just now?"
As soon as the servants heard this, someone said: "The master is not Ah Hu. We were all together just now and were preparing to rest. Five or six people can testify. It is not Ah Hu who made a fool of himself."
"Who else could it be if it's not Ah Hu?"
"I'm afraid it's really haunted. A ghost has haunted Madam!"
The voice of whispering sounded again, Madam Huang was even more angry when she heard it, and said: "Who said haunted? Stand up for me!"
Where anyone dared to stand up, the servants did not dare to say more, and they were all kicked out of the room soon, so they had to go back to rest temporarily.
Li Luo and the others also came out, it seems that today they can no longer visit at night, they can only talk about it another day.
"What? Another day?!" Li Wuzheng yelled, "Farewell, are you addicted to peeping?"
Li Wuzheng was reluctant, thinking that it would be over once.
Li Luo said: "If you want to find out the case, you must have an indomitable spirit, and you can't give up halfway."
Li Wuzheng: "..."
"Go back." Xie Changying said lightly.
Li Wuzheng followed behind, saying, "This Huang family is really evil."
Li Luo asked, "Was that human blood just now?"
"Human blood? How is that possible?" Li Wuzheng said, "If you smell it, you know it's not human blood, it's chicken blood."
"Chicken blood?" Li Luo said, "It turns out that chicken blood smells like this, no wonder it smells weird. That's because someone intentionally frightened Mrs. Huang."
"It should be." Li Wuzheng nodded.
After some tossing, the three returned to the courtyard.Li Wuzheng felt lazy and said, "I'm going back to rest first."
"Wait." Xie Changying called to stop him.
Li Wuzheng said: "What other orders does the lord have?"
Xie Changying said: "Go ask someone to prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."
Li Wuzheng was speechless for a while, he knew that Xie Changying had a cleanliness addiction, and seeing so much chicken blood just now, he might have committed a cleanliness addiction.
Li Wuzheng nodded and said, "I'll go, I'll go right away."
"Wait." Xie Changying stopped him again.
Li Wuzheng said: "What's the matter, my lord?"
Xie Changying said: "Also prepare hot water for Li Luo, let him take a bath."
"What?!" Li Wuzheng opened his eyes wide, the prince wanted Li Luo to take a bath, and it was still midnight, this...
Could it be that the lord wants to be with Li Luo...?
Xie Changying looked indifferent, and said: "He didn't take a shower when he came back from the mountain, and this king just feels bad for him just thinking about it."
Li Wuzheng heaved a sigh of relief, and what he said was true, he glanced at Li Luo with the same contempt, and said, "Don't you take a bath all day?"
Li Luo said: "Isn't there no chance, then Master Lao Li will bring me some buckets of hot water."
Li Wuzheng asked someone to prepare hot water, delivered it to Xie Changying and Li Luo's rooms respectively, and then went back to sleep.
Hot water had already been delivered to the room, but Xie Changying didn't intend to undress and take a bath.
He paced a few steps in the room, left and right, with rare hesitation on his expressionless face.
Xie Changying walked a few more steps with her hands behind her back, and said in a low voice, "Go...or not?"
He is making a difficult choice.
In fact, Xie Changying asked Li Wuzheng to prepare hot water for Li Luo, not simply because he disliked that Li Luo was too dirty if he didn't take a bath.real purpose...
Xie Changying wanted to take a closer look at the red tattoo on Li Luo's back.
And the red tattoo on Li Luo's back was too hidden, unless he took off his clothes, he would never see it.
If Xie Changying approached him openly and honestly, Li Luo would definitely tease him violently with a smile on his face.Xie Changying had a headache just thinking about it.
So Xie Changying decided that it would be wiser not to look at the tattoos openly, but to sneak around.
So Xie Changying cleverly thought of taking a bath.
But right now, all he needs to do is peek at Li Luo taking a bath...
When the matter came, Xie Changying hesitated.Although things happen for a reason, things like peeping in the shower
