At the cottage beside Hongshui, Zhao Gongzheng was waiting outside the house where he was about to leave. When he met Wu Sheng, he quickly reported: "I stayed here for a whole day, but he didn't come back. His wife and daughter don't know yet."
Wu Sheng looked at the simple wooden house not far away, and saw smoke curling up from the kitchen. The wife who was about to leave the house might be cooking, and it looked peaceful and peaceful.
"You can't find it over there?" Zhao Gong asked again.
Wu Sheng shook his head, feeling not in a good mood.
It was now evening. After searching to the river during the day, he searched all over the other side of the river and downstream, hoping to see people alive and corpses dead. Unfortunately, it was in vain. He even sank to the bottom of the river.
After searching carefully, I didn't find any valuable clues.
If you want to commit suicide by drowning, then of course it is best. What if you do not die but survive?
He was arrested by himself, and was defeated by Jiang Ying. If the two men treated him like this, would he still dare to go to Linzi to report? Even if he went to Linzi, would anyone believe him?
How much did Jiang Ying tell him last night? How much did he really know?
After much deliberation, if Li wanted to survive, it was really unlikely that he would go to Linzi to report him. Even if he went, he would not know the fact that Jiang Ying was killed by him.
However, Wu Sheng would not do such things if he wanted to be away from death, or he did not dare to report, and placed his own safety on others.
"Wait three more days." Wu Sheng's expression was very bad - of course it was not good. In a battle with Jiang Ying, the losses were still quite large. In addition, no one would look good if he did not get the divorce.
Mr. Zhao didn't dare to offend him, so he responded more respectfully. He wanted to throw the blame eagerly, and suggested: "Could it be Wu Yuan?"
Wu Sheng shook his head: "We were invited into the palace last night and then turned around to attack. The Wu members would not be so unwise. The Wu Kingdom cannot bear the anger of the academy and must flee the city."
Duke Zhao asked again: "Besides guarding his home, what else can I do? I'll ask Feng Yong and Gao Li to come out and look for him?"
Wu Sheng nodded: "Spread out the people. I have searched all the wild lands outside Gusu City. No... let them focus on the rivers and waterways, especially the big river fifteen miles southwest of Gusu City..."
Zhao Gongdao: "Spring water? That's a bit troublesome. The downstream flows directly into the river..."
Wu Sheng didn't bother to explain, and kept making the same guess: "I guess if you want to leave, you must escape from this river. The school is short of manpower. Instead of spreading it out to spread the noodles, it is better to focus on the key points and launch the net, and use all the strength to search for spring water."
, you want to see people alive, and you want to see corpses when dead!"
Gusu Academy searched along the river for three days, and the result surprised Wu Sheng. They actually got some clues, and Wu Sheng immediately rushed to a fishing village by the river.
This is already the southern part of the Wu Kingdom far away from Suzhou. The river runs east to west and is so vast that you can't see the edge. On the other side of the river is the Yue Kingdom.
Two fishermen in the fishing village reported to Wu Sheng that at dusk three days ago, they had finished fishing on the river, and when they were about to return to the shore, they found someone in the water holding a piece of wood floating down the river, and they immediately rescued him.
The body shape and clothing of the man who fell into the water were similar to that of Yaoli, and he was unconscious when he was rescued. There are not so many coincidences in the world, and it is almost certain that he was Yaoli.
It has almost become a rule that if you fall into the water, you will never die, so Wu Sheng has been mentally prepared, but he is still disappointed.
Especially when someone picked him up.
The fisherman had to repeat the details of that time again, and at the same time danced and gestured: "The person who picked him up is so tall..."
"That high?"
"Put your hand down a little bit... almost. He looks younger than me. The villain is in his early thirties, so he should be in his twenties..."
"Are you in your early thirties?"
"Yes, the villain is thirty-two or thirty-three. By the way, his face is paler than the villain's!"
"……continue."
"He came to stay at my house five days ago. He left early and came back late. He didn't know what he was busy talking about. When he saw me carrying someone back, he helped me, um, and kept patting him."
"How to shoot?"
"I was shooting randomly. I wanted to wake him up. Don't tell me, he might know some witchcraft and he actually woke people up. Then he asked me to wait outside, and later asked the villain to bring some water and food inside.
, By the way, the villain made fish soup. The fish soup of the villain was so good. After a bowl of soup, the person who fell into the water was healed. He was jumping around alive and could even walk on the ground! "
"Then what?"
"Then he took the person away, and the person followed him. He seemed to be an acquaintance. Do you think it was a coincidence?"
"In which direction? When?"
"I left early the day before yesterday, heading south."
"What clothes are you wearing?"
"The black linen clothes I'm wearing are those of the villain. The one who drowned changed into the clothes of the villain. The gray linen clothes are new clothes. My mother-in-law knitted them for me during the official festival. I only went into the water twice..."
“Where do the men in black live?”
"In the woodshed, I let him live in the side room. If he doesn't go, he will live and die in the woodshed..."
A group of people from the school broke into the woodshed and rummaged through it, but did not find anything of value. The man in black, as the fisherman said, cleaned up relatively cleanly when he left, leaving nothing behind.
Feng Yonghe asked: "Where is the money he gave you?"
The fisherman denied: "What kind of money? How can we charge foreigners for renting a place to stay? Our village is the most hospitable..."
Gao Li said: "How much money he gives you, we will double it, but if you count randomly, your whole family will not survive!"
The fisherman hesitated for a moment, but finally did not dare to mess around and took out a bunch of copper shell coins, about fifty pieces.
Wu Sheng took out the Divine Treasure Seeing Light Talisman and asked the Talisman Master from Gusu Academy to pursue it, but there was no trace of spiritual power fluctuations on the coins, so the pursuit failed.
Gao Li asked the fisherman about the origin of the coin, and the fisherman kowtowed repeatedly: "I'm not making this up, this money was indeed left by that man. He sank it in a small bamboo basket in the river, and asked the villain to pick it up before he left.
Don’t dare to deceive without intention!”
Everyone present was a veteran in investigating the case, and they immediately judged that the man in black linen clothes must be a habitual criminal and possess strong anti-search capabilities.
"After the order was given, there were two suspects. One was leaving, wearing gray linen clothes, and the other was wearing black linen clothes, and went south. Tiao Kuaiji, Yuhang, and Oucheng searched with all their strength, from north to south, each covering hundreds of miles. When they found the criminal
After you find the trace, report it immediately!"
As for the height, age, and appearance described by the fisherman, they are not advisable. If they must be added, it should be an interval value, that is, between six and seven feet in height, under fifty years old, and unable to evaluate the skin color.
The conditions are meaningless.
Wu Sheng has experienced many major cases handled by the Academy. Schools from all over the country were mobilized and joined forces to suppress the enemy. The power was quite powerful. Two of them were suppressed, two times he participated in the suppression, and now he is presiding over the encirclement and suppression. It feels quite good.
different.
No one dared to resist Fengxing's wrath, especially the new one who was investigating the case for the first time. No one wanted to be burned by his three fires. Schools in various places immediately responded to the order and went all out, acting vigorously and resolutely. In Wuyue from north to south
