Mo Ruo was so angry at the kid's death joke.
A reprimand, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb."
"But what I'm saying is... the truth." The boy's voice became smaller and smaller, and he shrank his head.
"You say it again!"
Shut up!
Mo Ruoqi felt that his mind was seen through by a little fur boy.
Simply—
He asked Xiaotong to fetch a pot of wine so that he could have a good sleep after drinking.
Soon, the wine will be brought.
As soon as he put it down, Xiaotong found an ant crawling on the table made of bamboo.
"Huh? Master, why are there ants here?"
Ant
Mo Ruo saw it, it really exists!
The bamboo tables in Yuhua Pavilion are all smoked with medicinal herbs. If there are no sweet substances, there are generally no ants.
began to look for the source.
Suddenly startled.
"Master, look, the corners of this table are full of ants." The boy pointed.
Sure enough, there were densely packed ants crawling around the corner of the table, crumpling into a black ball.
Very disgusting.
With sharp eyes, Mo Ruo saw a small black object that was being "lucky" by a large number of ants.
Could it be that this... is what Ji Yunshu sent him to show him what kind of medicinal herbs it was
He directly stretched out his hand to sweep the ants away, and held the black object in his palm to look at it, as if he had found a treasure.
Then I went to the room to study the drug with the direction things in my hands.
The boy shouted bewilderedly behind him, "Master, what to do with these ants?"
"Bai Ye!"
Shutters
Yes, louvers can repel ants.
The little boy went down to the attic to get the shutters.
That night, Moruo stayed in the room to study the black object.
until dawn—
As soon as the rooster croaked, he left Yuhua Pavilion and rode to Prince Rong's mansion.
And the people in Prince Rong's mansion didn't sleep all night.
Are waiting for news!
When Moruo arrived at the door, he almost collided with Lang Bo.
"Young Master Mo, why are you here?"
"I'm here to find Mr. Ji."
Lang Bo snorted, "Go in that piece."
He seemed anxious.
It seems that I went to Zhangjia Village and gained a lot.
Moro nodded.
The two go in together.
In the hall, Jing Rong and Ji Yunshu waited all night.
I was waiting for Lang Bo alone, but I didn't expect Mo Ruo to come too.
As soon as he entered, Lang Bo reported the results he had found, "According to Mr.'s instructions, we put together the broken base of the Buddha. The shape of the base is square, and the inside is indeed empty, just connecting the dry well below. There is no mechanism at all. Just one push can push one side of the base away, but the people in Zhangjia Village don't know it at all, so no one moves, but the murderer must know the Buddha very well, so he used this to kill the dead. Throwing it into the dry well, I also went to find old man Zhang, but from the day Zhang Daqi was taken away by King Yi, he disappeared, but I found something in the house."
Um
He handed over a piece of silver and explained, "It was pried from Old Man Zhang's wheelchair."
Ji Yunshu took it and saw that it was a square piece of silver.
very light!
very small!
She frowned and said, "At that time, outside the ancestral hall of Zhangjiacun, when Zhang Daqi pushed the old man in, a square light flashed in front of my eyes, it should be metal, or iron or something, but At that time, neither Zhang Daqi nor Zhang Laohan had metal iron pieces on their bodies, only the handle of the wheelchair. Later, the light in the ancestral hall went out, and I saw the light again, but Zhang Laohan had already been pushed inside to rest, and the wheelchair was not there. Outside, where does the light come from? Unless…”
Jing Rong continued, "Unless, when the lights went out, Old Man Zhang came out in a wheelchair, and he killed Si Si with a silver needle."
Uh!
The murderer, is it really old man Zhang
Everyone present was shocked.
Ji Yunshu's face darkened, and he took his words again, "When old man Zhang killed, Zhang Daqi was by his side, so when I asked him if that person was from Zhangjia Village, he was so excited, it was obvious that he wanted to The person who protects is his father."
"But we have no direct evidence."
Mo Ruo, who has been silent all the time, said, "I think... I should have."
All eyes turned to him.
He took out the black thing in a hurry.
"This is..." Ji Yunshu was shocked.
"That's right, it's what you sent. I've tested it. This medicine is called black chestnut. It's mixed with sticky sugar and white wine. It will give off a smell similar to minced garlic. Seeds are usually smeared on people's arms, and if exposed to sunlight, they will attract ants."
Bone disease
"Bone symptoms? On the wrist? Garlic?" Ji Yunshu murmured, and finally understood, "Yes, I have smelled that smell on Old Man Zhang's body. Come to think of it, he should be suffering from dry bones, so he would apply it on his hands. This medicine, so when he held the dagger upside down and inserted it into Gaomeng's chest from behind, the medicine on his arm was on the inside of Gaomeng's ear. Now, as long as he is found, it proves that he really has this medicine on his hands. , everything will come to light.”
The clouds were gradually cleared away.
but-
Jing Rong had doubts in her heart, "But there is one thing I don't understand. If the murderer is really old man Zhang, why is there Zhang Daqi's blood on that stone?"
this…
"I know!"
A voice came from outside.
Hearing the sound, it was Tang Si.
The girl rushed in excitedly, sweating profusely, swallowed her saliva, picked up a cup of tea and drank it "gulugulu".
Then he said, "I know, I know why the old man killed, and why there is Zhang Daqi's blood on the stone."
very loud...
At this moment, the Ministry of Punishment is escorting Zhang Daqi to "Cashikou" in a prison car.
Just passed the most prosperous street in Beijing.
Many people were panicked for a long time because of the dry well case in Beijing. Now that the murderer was finally found, everyone was at ease and angry, and rushed over with baskets full of cabbage and eggs.
Block the whole street.
"Should kill him."
"Thousands of knives."
"Kill him, kill him..."
…
Many people scolded and threw eggs and rotten vegetables at Zhang Daqi on the prison cart.
Zhang Daqi didn't have the slightest desire to survive, and was detained on it like a mess.
He hadn't wiped off the Jinchuang medicine that Ji Yunshu brought him, so that the wounds all over his body continued to ooze blood, and his head, face, and body were also covered with smashed eggs and rotten vegetable leaves.
Very embarrassed.
The so-called rat across the street shouting and beating is probably him.
Under the siege of countless scoldings of condemnation and egg and vegetable leaves, the prison cart arrived at Caishikou.
He was dragged to the execution platform, his hands bound, and he knelt on the ground.
The executioner is naked/uppered, carrying a large sword, and has been prepared for a long time.
The officer who was ordered this time looked up at the sky, and seeing that the time was almost up, he took Lingjian out of the tube.
A wave of hands.
The arrow was thrown out and threw heavily on the ground.
"Execution."
