Everyone in Kaifeng went out to take a boat trip to the lake, and found a floating corpse.
Both Tianzun and Yin Hou poked at Daoyuan, who was stunned, and asked him if he had seen it? It was always like this! Something happened when he went out.
Master Daoyuan recited "Amitabha" and sighed, "I never expected this..."
Yin Hou asked him, "Show it to the child. Is there any way he can be saved?"
But Master Daoyuan shook his head, "It's not Zhan Zhao who wants to come! It's Master Bao who asked them to come."
Tianzun and Yin Hou looked at each other and stared at Daoyuan, "Hey! Have you started petting the kittens?"
Master Daoyuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "This is called discussing the matter! I really don't blame him."
Everyone thought about it and realized that it was Bao Zheng who asked Zhan Zhao to come out to play, and it was Bao Zheng who said he wanted to come to the lake...
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Zhao Zhen.
The emperor was still standing at the stern of the boat with his arms folded, looking around. When he saw everyone looking over, he raised his eyebrows proudly, "Look! It's all thanks to me! As soon as we went out to swim on the lake, there was another clue!"
Everyone turned around silently, so the key issue is not whether Zhan Zhao is good or not, but whether Zhan Zhao is not thick-skinned enough!
After inspecting the body, Gongsun shook his head, "That's not right!"
Everyone looked at him, "What's wrong?"
"This man was killed by something like a rope! He was not drowned!" Gongsun pointed to a strangulation mark on the neck of the deceased, "Also, although the eyeballs were taken out, the method was completely different from the previous series of cases.
So neat, this is a copycat crime!"
Gongsun carefully inspected the deceased's hand.
Usually, the most direct way to guess a person's occupation is to look at that person's hand.
"This man may often use a knife." Gongsun muttered.
Zhao Pu asked, "Jianghu people?"
"No..." Gongsun shook his head, "Maybe he is a butcher."
"Butcher?" Everyone came over to look.
"Yeah." Gongsun nodded and said whether the knuckles of his fingers were often used with knives or heavy kitchen knives...
"Speaking of butchers..."
Gongsun suddenly started to look through the medicine box, took out a bottle of medicine, opened it and sprinkled some medicine on the deceased's chest.
I saw large blue marks on the chest of the deceased.
Zhao Pu saw Gongsun using this medicine before and asked, "Is this man also stained with large blood stains on his chest?"
"I understand!" Gongsun clapped his hands, "Those clothes may be the butcher's clothes!"
"Butcher?"
"Yeah!" Gongsun nodded, "The blood is stained when killing pigs and bleeding them!"
"Shouldn't you wear a leather apron when killing pigs?" Zhao Pu asked.
"Yeah, but if you don't wear an apron, you will get this kind of blood stains... maybe if you don't wear an apron, you might end up like this accidentally." The more Gongsun thought about it, the more likely it was, and he stood up, "Find a pig and try it!"
Zhao Pu quickly stopped him and said to himself, "You can't even catch a chicken and you want to catch a pig..."
"Let's do the autopsy first, and I'll catch the pig for you later."
Of course, the Ninth Prince complained in his heart, but still coaxed him with his mouth.
Gongsun continued the autopsy and said, "We may need two. Let's compare them with and without aprons."
The prince nodded again and again, "Let Zhe Ying drive a group of them over in a while, and you kill them slowly!"
Zhan Zhao asked the steward of the Xie family on the boat where there were more butchers in Hangzhou.
The housekeeper said that most of them are concentrated on Bazi Street in the south of the city, and most people who buy pork, mutton, etc. go there to set up stalls.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang stopped staying on the boat and went ashore together, preparing to go to Bazi Street.
As soon as they arrived at the shore, Lin Yehuo followed behind him, holding the little boy in his hands.
Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at him.
Huofeng hugged Xiaotuanzi and pointed at the two of them, saying, "Look at those disgusted looks!"
The fourth child also pouted—a little obvious!
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang did dislike Lin Yehuo a little. They could go shopping together but had to bring someone with them... But if the fourth son was there, forget it. Lin Yehuo had been miserable recently, and Zou Liang had to take responsibility again.
Send Zhao Zhen back.
…
The Bazi Street in the south of the city is a large vegetable market. The two streets form an eight-character street, with a meat market on one side and a fish market on the other.
There are many vendors selling vegetables and fruits in the middle.
The vegetable markets are naturally messy. The meat market has a greasy smell, and the fish market has a fishy smell.
Both Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo looked at Bai Yutang.
The fifth master stretched out his hand to take the little fourth son, what does it mean - otherwise you go in, Tuanzi and I will wait here...
But the fourth son wanted to go in, saying he wanted to buy pigs for his father!
Lin Yehuo took the fourth child back and took him to the meat market. Master Huofeng planned to see if there were any good pig's trotters and buy some to stew into pig's trotters soup for beauty! By the way, he would give the mute a tonic. He has been mute recently.
Quite tired.
Zhan Zhao took Bai Yutang into the market and asked as he walked, "Should we buy something too?"
Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao - can you also make pig's trotter soup?
Zhan Zhao looked at him - would you drink it if it was really stewed?
The fifth master smiled - I will drink your stew.
Zhan Zhao started looking for pig trotters everywhere.
The Fifth Master thought for a while and said, "I'd rather help Gongsun drive some pigs back."
Zhan Zhao nodded, "What a good idea! After he kills him, he will hand it over to the Demon King and see if he can get some soup dumplings to eat tomorrow morning."
The fifth master found it a bit funny and asked Zhan Zhao, "After he kills him, can Gongsun kill a pig?"
Just as he was talking, he saw the boy in front of him pointing to a stall and saying, "There are pigs!"
Lin Yehuo took a look and saw that there were piglets for sale at a stall.
Lin Yehuo also teased the fourth son, "Roast suckling pig?"
The fourth boy glanced at the fire phoenix, pointed at the piglet, and said he wanted to buy it.
Lin Yehuo bought a little pig, picked it up and found it was quite clean, so he gave it to the fourth son.
The fourth child hugged her and felt that the soft flesh felt good.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were a step late, and when they arrived, they saw Lin Yehuo holding the fourth son, who was holding a pink piglet.
Zhan Zhao was so happy that Wu Ye tried hard not to laugh.
The shop owner is an old man, he looks to be sixty or seventy years old. He only sells piglets in his stall and does not kill pigs.
Zhan Zhao saw that the old man had a good face and asked him, "Sir, is there a butcher nearby who is missing a finger?"
"Oh!" The old man nodded after hearing this, "Jia Laoliu!"
"Where is his stall?" Zhan Zhao asked.
"Over there, the third house from the left." The old man stood up and pointed it to Zhan Zhao.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked in the direction of his finger.
I saw two meat stalls next to each other in front of me. One was open and there were people inside, but the other was covered with a cloth and looked like it was not open.
"That one belongs to Lao Liu's family. There is no business today." The old man said enthusiastically, "You ask Xiao Chen next door. Not only do they have stalls next to each other, but they also live in the same house as neighbors. They are very familiar with each other.
.”
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both nodded and thanked the old man. The fifth master saw that there was a nest of piglets beside his chair. They were quite cute, so he stared at them.
Zhan Zhao reluctantly dragged Bai Yutang away. What if he bought it and raised it? Can he really make soup dumplings for the Demon King?
Fifth Master said it can be kept in the yard...
Zhan Zhao refused, "No buying!"
Everyone walked towards the two meat stalls.
In the meat stall open in front, there was a young man looking around. He was probably the Xiao Chen the old man was talking about.
Seeing Zhan Zhao and the others walking towards him, the young man's face looked a little strange. Finally, seeing them getting closer and closer, Xiao Chen suddenly pushed the stall's barrier, rushed out and ran away.
"Alas!" Zhan Zhao shouted, "We are official servants!"
But who would have thought that when Xiao Chen heard the word "official official", he ran faster.
