   Chapter 420 Murder and silence

   Sanni kept talking about the ghosts, and some brave people ran to the ruins of Qiao's house, and they saw the lantern that Sanni and the dead youngest son of the Wang family had dropped when they had a tryst last night.

  The two people who have been to the Qiao family ruins died and went crazy, which undoubtedly confirmed that the Qiao family's grievances were turned into evil ghosts because of the opening of the coffin and the autopsy.

   For a while, there was a lot of uproar in the village, seeing Qiao Zhao and the others subconsciously looking away, covering up the complaints in their eyes.

   Big people and the little people can't afford to offend them, but big people can't be so harmful!

In the house of Tofu Xishi, Qian Zuozuo sneered: "The evil ghosts are killing people, I can see at a glance that the youngest son of the Wang family was twisted and his neck was broken. Judging from the fingerprints, that person should be about the same height as Lord Hou. ."

   Is the same height as Shao Mingyuan?

  Qiao Zhao suddenly thought of something and glanced at Shao Mingyuan.

   Shao Mingyuan's eyes darkened, obviously thinking of it.

Yang Houcheng sat down, rubbed his hair and said, "No matter how he died, I think the people in Baiyun Village wish we could get out of here. Tingquan, we'll ask the villagers about the fire in the Qiao family later. Clues, I am afraid it is more difficult than reaching the sky."

   Shao Mingyuan nodded.

  The villagers are so ignorant. If they believe in ghosts, they will blame and taboo on them. When the time comes, if they don’t know, they can’t torture these ordinary villagers.

   "Tingquan, will someone deliberately kill someone and lead you to the haunted in order to prevent you from investigating?" Chi Can asked.

   "That's also possible."

   "Then what are you going to do, staying in Baiyun Village?"

Shao Mingyuan smiled: "The other party doesn't know, the clues we should have found from Baiyun Village have been found. If the other party really wants to kill people and lead to haunting, it will have no effect on us. I plan to visit the old friend of Qiao's family, get out of here."

   "Go to the South China Sea?"

   "Yes, go to the South China Sea."

When only Qiao Zhao and Shao Mingyuan were left, Qiao Zhao asked, "Do you really think that the death of the youngest son of the Wang family was because the other party wanted to interfere with our investigation?"

   "What do you think of Zhaozhao?"

  Qiao Zhao walked to the table: "This is only one possibility, and another possibility is to kill people."

She picked up the pen and quickly drew the layout of Baiyun Village, pointing to the far east: "Look, this is the Wang family, who lives at the head of the village, the village head's family is in the middle of the village, and our family is at the end of the village and then go west, We didn't arrive until after Xingzilin. Last night, the youngest son of the Wang family and Sanni fled in a hurry. When we got here, Sanni returned to the village chief's house. They are all safe during this journey."

   Shao Mingyuan nodded: "Yes, this proves that no one followed us there last night, so they did not encounter the murderer."

   "Yes, the youngest son of the Wang family had an accident here. It's very close to his house. General Shao, what's the reason you said he met the murderer here?"

  The thinking of the two was very in harmony, and Shao Mingyuan immediately said: "The most likely reason is that someone happened to sneak into Baiyun Village at that time. I didn't expect that at that time, they met the youngest son of the Wang family, so they killed him."

  Qiao Zhao's eyebrows curved: "I think so too."

Shao Mingyuan's eyes flashed coldly: "about the same height as me, that person is probably the murderer Tie Zhu has seen. We went to Baiyun Town to visit the Xie family, Li Zhifu couldn't sit still, and sent this expert to monitor us. ."

Qiao Zhao pursed the corners of his mouth and looked cold: "That man is also smart, he immediately thought of diverting his attention after killing him. The rumor that the youngest son of the Wang family was murdered by evil spirits spread all over this morning, and the other party's help was inevitable. I want to kill two birds with one stone.”

Today, the nonsense of the villagers made Qiao Zhao very angry, and Shao Mingyuan was very distressed. He reached out and took her hand and said, "The villagers are ignorant, so there is no need to care about them. Only by taking action can we catch their tails. Zhaozhao, how would Li Zhifu react if we caught the master next to Li Zhifu?"

  Qiao Zhao thought about it for a while, then chuckled, "Probably jumping off the wall in a hurry."

   "What I want is that he jumps over the wall! Xiao Zhao, continue to accompany Ben Hou to visit Qiao's family." Knowing that Qiao Zhao was in a bad mood, Shao Mingyuan wanted to tease her.

   "Ben Hou?" Qiao Zhao raised his eyebrows.

   This self-proclaimed, it is fresh.

   The man chuckled softly: "For my husband?"

  Qiao Zhao's face turned red uncontrollably, and gave him a white look: "Nonsense, why don't you get ready to leave soon?"

The man opposite    stared at her deeply, his eyes fixed.

   Qiao Zhao pursed his lips.

   What is this fool doing?

   "Zhaozhao, I dreamed of our bridal room last night -"

   "Shut up!" Qiao Zhao walked away with a dark face.

   The young general touched his nose.

   He just wanted to tell Zhaozhao that he had a dream last night that they had an imperial decree just after worshipping in the church, and he went on an expedition before he could see her. This dream caused him to wake up still full of unpleasant feelings.

  Why did Zhaozhao get angry and leave without listening to him?

   Until the two set off, the young general was still thinking about this issue seriously.

   In the next few days, the people of Baiyun Village became more and more isolated towards Qiao Zhao and the others. Although they dared not speak of driving people out of the village due to their status, they no longer had the enthusiasm they used to have.

   After the previous conversation, everyone ignored it, leaving Chi Can and Yang Hou to deal with the magistrate Wang and others, while Qiao Zhao followed Shao Mingyuan to visit one or two old friends of Qiao's family every day.

   Li Zhifu became more and more confused about the actions of the two.

   "Champion Hou has been visiting old friends of the Qiao family every day these days, and it seems that he doesn't care much about the Qiao family fire case."

   "My lord, don't take it lightly. The champion may be trying to confuse us with such a gesture."

   "It's natural, that's why this officer called Liu Hu back to stare at him."

  The staff frowned: "Sir, the student thinks it's a bit risky for you to ask Liu Hu to come back. After all, Liu Hu was the one who started the attack on the Qiao family—"

Li Zhifu smiled disapprovingly: "It is said that the champion Hou Wugong is unrivaled, and I would be a little uneasy not to ask Liu Hu to come back. Mr. Han can rest assured that Liu Hu attacked the Qiao family that day, and only a widow living in the westernmost part of Baiyun Village saw him. After passing him, that widow has been silenced by Liu Hu, so no one in this world will know about it except us. Liu Hu has been with this official for many years, and it is really awkward to suddenly put it aside. "

  Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Li Zhifu's eyes: "Furthermore, our reinforcements are coming soon, even if there is any accident, the champions will not be able to fly!"

   The two of Qiao Zhao came out of the Zhu family in Jiafeng City. Qiao Zhao looked solemn: "General Shao, I'm thinking, did Uncle Zhu Shi really fall from the horse accidentally? I feel a little uncomfortable seeing Brother Zhu Shi's sad look today."

   Brother Zhu Shi?

   Hearing this title, the young general frowned.

   Thirty-ninth more. For this update, I would like to thank Xuanyuan Yuzhu for the He Clan's jade that he rewarded in January.
