Chapter 1378 Hey, am I so obvious?
It was getting late, so he found an inn and stayed in.
I sorted out the matter carefully.
Although the murderer who killed two officials could not be found for a while, he could define a general range.
According to the simplest and most rude method, whoever is most favorable to these two people after their death will be the most suspicious.
Because the death of two people is murder and not robbers, this rule can be applied.
They came to check the cause of the flood, so in this incident, 80% of people were not clean and could not stand the investigation; or they had discovered the key points, which caused others to be taboo, so they should start first and be strong.
A rockfall accident was created.
So who is this person?
According to common sense, Jin Yuming, the prefect of Jinyang Prefecture, is the most suspicious because he is the head of a mansion.
But this is not 100% certain, because he is a person after all, and cannot cover up the sky with one hand. Maybe someone is disagreeing with him and deliberately making trouble for the flood?
For example, admirals in charge of military affairs, and gangs of black forces formed by interests are possible.
Moreover, Master Jin has a good reputation and has seen it last time.
It takes a lot of effort to find out what larger forces there are in Jinyang Prefecture without disturbing people.
What you can find in places like taverns and tea shops are all things on the surface, and it is not that easy to understand them in depth.
Could it be that this matter cannot be investigated for the time being?
It is actually okay not to investigate, because after all, this matter has a direct relationship with the water. As long as he finds out what the water is going on, he will be able to talk about it later.
If the flood is caused by humans and is intentional by the staff, then most of the people involved are related to the murderer.
If the flood is indeed a natural disaster and is irresistible, then he will come into contact with more people and things, which will also help find the murderer again.
Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to find out the cause of the flood.
Many people here say that the flood is caused by the heavy rain and the Dashang River is also flooded, so you can go to the Dashang River to take a look tomorrow.
...
The next day, Liao Qing got up early again, rode his horse and headed towards the Dashang River.
When he passed by a street, he suddenly felt familiarity.
He has been here once, isn’t Sun Yuan’s home here?
Of course, Sun Yuan is dead and his family is still there.
Liao Qing walked while looking at the room beside him, but suddenly found that the door of Sun Yuan’s house was closed and there was a seal on it!
This is so strange!
Liao Qing held the reins and jumped off the horse. At this time, there were other early people, and there were people who had already opened the door nearby. He found someone and asked.
The man said that the family had moved.
"Do you know where they moved?"
"I don't know this." The man replied.
Liao Qing said strangely, "You live so close, didn't you tell you before they moved out?"
The man said, "But they really didn't tell us! He left very suddenly and no one knew. Maybe they were no longer in charge and were in a bad mood, so they didn't want to live here."
Liao Qing: "Then how do you know that they moved?"
The man: "What the official said! Look at the seal on his door. The family has already dealt with the house to the government. The government is looking for a buyer now. Do you want to buy a house?"
“I won’t buy a house.”
Liao Qing thanked the man and rode back on his horse.
The family lost the male owner and was involved in the gambling house. Maybe they were worried about being intimidated again, so they simply moved.
This is also a wise choice.
As for where they moved, he actually didn't have to figure it out, after all, he had never had a relationship with this family.
The Dashang River is still a little far away, and it was not until the afternoon when Liao Qing arrived.
It took another two hours before I roughly read it.
There are three embankments near this side of Dashang River, all of which are made of large pieces of bluestone. They all look like they are newly built. It is probably the emergency repairs this time when the flood broke out.
It is easier to build a big bluestone, but it is not suitable for blocking water. It is not stable enough, and I don’t know what the people who do business think.
But at least it was blocked.
The river is quite large, the length is endless, the width is quite spectacular, and the area of rain is quite large, no wonder it fills the water at any time.
After reading the river, I found nothing at the moment.
Because now it's all good.
Liao Qing looked and thought, but suddenly heard a loud shout:
"Stop! Robbery!"
Liao Qing was really shocked. When he turned around, he saw that there were six men on the side running out of the woods by the river.
"Young man, hand over all the valuable things!"
"Hurry up! Otherwise, I will chop you up and throw it into the river to feed the turtle!"
Liao Qing was so angry that he was blackmailed. He couldn't find the clue and was blackmailed. He was so polite that he rushed up.
Six big men surrounded him, and as soon as they rushed to the front, they were swung out by Liao Qing with a palm.
"I'm going to make a point and apply medicine!"
One of them yelled, and the other immediately took out something from his arms and shook it hard at Liao Qing!
"puff!"
A smog of smoke filled the air.
What the hell? Liao Qing hesitated for a moment, but then heard the man shout, "Don't be serious, stay alive, the boss has told me, I'll ask questions."
At this time, Liao Qing found that his mind was in a daze, very slight. If he hadn't been focused, he would have never noticed this strange thing.
Is this...Evil Sol?
His heart moved, his body shook twice, his feet staggered, and he fell to the ground with a "thump".
"It fell down!"
"Okay, tie him up and carry him back to receive the reward!"
"This guy is so strong. He knocked me away with one palm just now and tied it up tightly!"
The six people tied Liao Qing up with all their hands and feet, and actually dragged a cart out of the forest, put Liao Qing on it, covered it with a piece of cloth, pushed it up and left.
...
On this day, Sanqing Temple welcomed a distinguished guest.
It’s true, Lord Du, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Du Zhengyan did not clear the venue this time and walked directly into the backyard Zen room. Even the little monk who was welcoming guests could not stop him.
"Old monk, do you know why I came today?"
Zhixin presided over and said, "The donor's eyebrows and eyes were filled with resentment, so he naturally came with some dissatisfaction."
"Hey, am I so obvious?"
Du Zhengyan was a little surprised. This was not in line with his personality. He did not have enough cultivation and had to hide it.
"You are making random guesses, right? Forget it, you are right. Since you know that I have something to be angry, you may have guessed why I am angry?"
Zhixin: "The more you want, the more trouble you are, the more you are worried about, so I won't be able to explore people's privacy."
