Daming King of Punishment

Page 406

After leaving those words behind, Song Wuya walked directly towards the village.

After he left, several yamen servants got together and discussed.

"I said boss, this Mr. Song is really capable! He said he could find the place to throw the corpse, and he could find the place to throw the corpse. There are eight places, enough to judge that there are eight places here. The trace left by the individual throwing the corpse." A yamen servant approached the head of the yamen servant and asked.

The head of the yamen servant nodded after hearing this: "It is true that he has some skills, but he said just now that he can judge the age and physical condition of this person from these distances. Whether he is really capable or not, it is still a bit difficult to draw conclusions now." too early!"

Song Wuya couldn't hear what the yamen servants were talking about, so he came directly to the village, looking at the deserted village, Song Wuya didn't bother to take care of it anymore, and walked directly to the village chief's house.

Boom boom boom!

The door of the courtyard was knocked by Song Wuya, and the old village head inside, still the same as last time, came out after a while.

"Why is it you again? Didn't I tell you later?" Seeing Song Wuya's face, the village chief immediately pulled his face down with a look of disgust.

I have to say that because of this case, everyone in the village is in a state of insanity. Seeing an outsider like him is like seeing a villain.

"Old village chief, didn't I tell you this morning? I have something to ask those Taoist chiefs, am I in a hurry? Look, it's almost evening, the Taoist chiefs should have woken up, right?" Song Wuya No matter how the old village head treats him, he still has a smile on his face, a look that people can't refuse.

Chapter 438 A Farce

After Song Wuya said this, the old village head frowned tightly, looking at the smiling face of the young man in front of him, his face was still cold.

After a long time, the old village chief finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, come in! I don't know if the Taoist priest has woken up yet!"

Although he looked like the boss was not happy, the village chief let Song Wuya into the house.

As soon as he entered the house, the old village chief frowned and said, "You said you young man, it's getting dark now, didn't you just come here this morning? Why did you come again so soon!"

The village chief obviously still didn't understand why Song Wuya was in such a hurry, and asked helplessly.

Song Wuya smiled slightly, and was about to explain, when the old village chief suddenly looked stunned: "Hey! Why are you alone? Where is the young man with you? Why don't you come here to find me and let him alone? Did you sneak into the West Mountain?"

Guessing this idea out of thin air, Song Wuya really admired the old man's imagination.

"Village Chief, what are you talking about? There is no such thing." Song Wuya knew how important the West Mountain was to this old man, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense about this matter, otherwise the old man would get angry When his temper came, he lost his temper.

But the village chief obviously didn't believe what he said, and warned sharply: "You guys had better not do anything out of the ordinary. You know that eight dead people were found in the fields of our village. They were all foreigners. If you dare to enter Xishan, let alone implicating us, even you will be punished by the mountain god!"

This incident really made Song Wuya hard to argue with, he hurriedly explained again: "Old village chief, don't worry! Why did I lie to you? My friend really left for something, didn't he go to something Xishan. Do you think he dares to let him go to Xishan alone because of his appearance as a weak scholar? He met a fellow countryman in the city, who happened to need his help with something, so he left with him. Let’s go, and still head east.”

"You didn't lie to me, did you? If what you said is true, then it's fine." The village chief heaved a sigh of relief and felt relieved.He frowned suddenly again, looked at Song Wuya and asked, "Why do you insist on looking for the Taoist priest? I don't think the two of you seem to be businessmen!"

Originally, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo lied about their identities as businessmen.But now it seems that their identities are really inappropriate.The old village head is quite old, and he is a foolish person, yet he can guess that their identities are wrong!

Hearing this, Song Wuya smiled helplessly and said: "Old village chief, you are right. Your old vision is not wrong at all, we are not businessmen. In fact, the purpose of our coming here , is also very simple. In fact, the government asked us to come here to investigate the murders of these eight people!"

"What? You are the official of the government? So young?" The village chief's expression became tense all of a sudden, and he looked at Song Wuya and asked in disbelief.He obviously didn't think Song Wuya was an official, but what Song Wuya said made him a little worried.

"Old village chief, I'm not an official. It's just because we met the magistrate Han Jin. He has been frowning because of this case and has never had the slightest clue, so he asked us to help solve it together." Song Song Wu Ya originally wanted to ask the old village chief about some things, but now he just kept explaining.

After explaining Bai Zhuo, he also explained his identity, which made him very helpless.

The village head nodded at this moment, wondering if he believed Song Wuya's words.

"Don't you suspect that the case in our village has something to do with the Taoist chiefs?" After the village chief understood Song Wuya's words, he thought that the purpose of Song Wuya's coming here was to find those Taoist priests. Long, immediately asked with a frown.

Regarding this question, Song Wuya hadn't settled down yet, and was just doubting it.

"No." So Song Wuya immediately denied the suspicion of the village chief: "The reason for looking for those Taoist chiefs is because we went to Xishan yesterday, and I want to ask them to understand the situation inside. After all, although we have People from the government, but they dare not go to the west mountain rashly, so as not to offend the mountain god."

When these half-truths and half-false words came out of Song Wuya's mouth, I really felt like I was deceiving the old village chief.

"Oh, so that's the case. The old man will help you see if the Taoists have woken up." The village chief said and was about to get up.

Apparently those priests live elsewhere, not here.Seeing that the old village chief wanted to get up to find some Taoist priests, Song Wuya immediately stopped him and said, "Old village chief, don't worry, I have other things to do, so don't rush to find some Taoist priests."

Unexpectedly, it was already afternoon, and these priests were still in the village, which made Song Wuya feel a little strange.After all, no matter what he thought, these fake Taoist priests should also run away quickly.

At this time, facing the village chief, Song Wuya was most concerned about the rumor of the treasure.

"The old village chief and my subordinates said before that there is a treasure left by the former prince in the Western Mountains. I don't know who else knows about it?" Song Wuya now wants to start with this news, so as to determine the scope of the murderer. .

When he asked this question, the old village chief's face immediately changed: "Hmph! I just find it strange. Why are you a businessman and a government official? You are a liar, and you want to inquire about the treasure from the old man, right?" ? Don't you think!"

This time, Song Wuya was dumbfounded.I have never had the slightest covetous heart for this treasure, but now I have encountered this case, so I want to ask about it.But what I didn't expect was that such an inquiry made the old village chief doubt his purpose.

"Get out! Get out!" Before Song Wuya could explain anything, the old village head stood up angrily, pointing in the direction of the door and yelling loudly.

The old village head was anxious, Song Wuya didn't know what to say.The trouble is, those yamen servants are still at the scene of the crime, and there is no way to prove his identity.

Of course, Song Wuya's identity can be confirmed, so now he is not in a hurry, and immediately got up: "Old village chief, don't get excited, I will leave now, I will leave now."

Speaking of which, Song Wuya walked directly towards the door, while calming the old village chief's emotions.It seemed that if the old village chief got mad at him, things would be in big trouble.

Unexpectedly, just as Song Wuya stepped over the threshold, the voice of the head of the yamen came from outside the yard: "Mr. Song, are you inside?"

As soon as the old village head heard that outsiders were coming, he immediately chased after him, and saw a group of yamen servants pouring in from outside.

"Are you... this guy's accomplices?" The old village chief no longer believed in Song Wuya, and directly regarded those yamen servants as Song Wuya's accomplices. The purpose was to convince the old village chief of Song Wuya's identity and to inquire Tell me about the treasure.

At this moment, the head of the yamen servant came up directly and scolded coldly: "Old man, what are you talking about! Open your eyes and take a good look at who I am!"

The head of the yamen servant did not treat the old village head with such respect as Song Wuya, and put on the airs of the government as soon as he came up.

A young man was following behind him, looking at the front shrunkly. Seeing this scene, the young man came forward: "Uncle, they are really from the government! I saw them before when I went to report the crime."

"Xiao Er! You didn't help outsiders to lie to Uncle, did you?" The old village chief was taken aback when he heard Luo Xiaoer say that. He carefully looked at the yamen servant in front of him, and still looked suspiciously at Luo Xiaoer for confirmation.

Luo Xiaoer nodded and confirmed, "Uncle, can I still lie to you?"

"Are you really from the government?" The old village head calmed down, looking at Song Wuya and asked suspiciously.

"Old village chief, I'm really from the government, and I didn't lie to you." Song Wuya explained with a wry smile.

"Then why did you ask me about the treasure as soon as you opened your mouth?" Even though the old village chief now believed that they were from the government, he still had doubts about Song Wuya.

"Treasure?" the old village chief said, and the head of the yamen beside him were also stunned. He looked at Song Wuya and asked, "Young Master Song, aren't we here to investigate the murder case? Why did you run out of Treasure again?"

It had calmed down, but when the head of the yamen servant asked this question, the old village chief's expression immediately became tense again.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Song Wuya sighed and said, "Old village chief, I won't hide it from you. I don't believe that the mountain gods were responsible for these cases. After all, the mountain gods protect the people of one side. The gods protect us, so how could they harm us? So, these murders were all deliberately framed by the mountain gods. And I have heard you keep mentioning that there are treasures left by the former crown prince in this mountain, so I said I suspect that someone wants to get this treasure, and deliberately do such a thing, so that people are afraid to approach here, so that they can find the treasure with peace of mind."

Song Wuya had no choice, so he directly revealed his speculation to everyone.

His words made others fall into silence, especially the old village chief's complexion was cloudy and his eyes were rolling around, as if he was thinking about something.
