Zhang Tongming accidentally found an inconspicuous clue. In a farmer's home, Zhang Guanming found that there were some wood chips that seemed to have been cut by knife in the pile of firewood.
There were some suspicion after being cut by the knife. But Zhang Tongming did not hit the grass, but secretly conducted a survey of the farmers.
The water around the wooden city is barren, and there are only some underground rivers. Therefore, most of the planting plants are dominated by high drought -resistant farms, but the harvest is not high, so it is difficult for the farmers to maintain life. Therefore, there are almost other lives in Mucheng farmers.
Leather and leather boots have the most leather artisans, and many farmers are relying on the lives of the big family or the army to support the family.
Zhang Tongming found through the investigation that the farmer's family named the farmer's family opened a leather artisan shop that did not make money, but the business has always heard that the business doorke. Zhang Tingming listened to the other shops that the old gold was in his thirties.
Therefore, learning is not good, so that the business is poor. In the past, he could only confuse some Pagoda herdsmen who did not understand the market, but the pastor who knew a little recently would not find their home to do business.
"Lao Jin's wife is pretty good." The neighbor laughed narrowly.
"Do farmers can't support a family of three, and they can do nothing in business, what life do they rely on?" Zhang Guanming puzzled.
As Li Chuncheng was more and more violent because he could not find his clues, the captains of his men were suffering, and the captains were suffering.
Zhang Tongming was forced to have no way, so he reported his discovery to Du Wei Liang Rui, but Liang Rui scolded him. This Liang Rui was originally one of the earliest epidemic villages.
Killing. He himself was not very capable, but relying on the earliest qualifications of Zhang Xiaowu, he became the captain in the context of repeated expansion of the dead camp.
And reusing the old department of the dead camp is also one of the methods for Zhang Xiaowu to control the army. Liang Rui borrowed this shareholder's style to make Duwei.
Anyone who has no ability, the most jealous and capable hand, Liang Rui believes that Zhang Gongming mocked him through his original qualifications, and warned Zhang Mingming.
There is no prisoner in the dungeon, so I might as well go to the prisoner to go to the jail.
Zhang Tongming had been forbearing for three days. He used these three days to continue monitoring the Laojin family, and he found a new clue -the old gold family did not leave home for six consecutive days. Anyone who was a little bit would definitely be with people with others.
Communicate, but the old Jin family rarely communicate with people. Such a big thing happened in the city. The old Jin family did not go to chat with the neighbors to chat and inquire about news. Is this still the small people in the market?
Zhang Tongming did not dare to pack the ticket. This old Jin family had problems, but he saw that Li Chuncheng's eyes were red and decided to try it. He crossed Liang Rui and directly found Li Chuncheng to report his discovery.
Li Chuncheng was just a killer of the rivers and lakes. He was good at assassination of others, but he was not good at looking for assassins. Everyone thought that a assassin's person would definitely find other assassins. Instead, Li Chuncheng was anxious.
After hearing Zhang Tongming's report, Li Chuncheng was about to send troops to be siege immediately. Zhang Xiaoming suggested: "Master of the Captain Captain must not act lightly. As the saying goes, if Lao Jin is an assassin, they should escape authentic.
Brother surrounds the local groups within one hundred square meters around the old Jin family, and then surrounds from Bayang. The arrest of Lao Jin must be stable and fast, and you must not let him respond. "
"Damn it, the four captains are not as good as one of you. They all look at me helplessly all day long. They are all a bunch of idiots. You can direct this operation and don't embarrass me." Li Chuncheng said simply.
said.
Zhang Tongming was embarrassed and said: "Master Xiaowei, if Lao Jin is unjust, if my judgment is wrong..."
Li Chuncheng said: "Even if he is wrongly accused, let's just treat it as an exercise. I will transfer you to me afterwards."
The first half of the arrest operation went extremely smoothly. However, after breaking the door, Lao Jin and his wife took out long knives to fight, and the weapons were knocked down by the soldiers. Lao Jin and his wife were quickly captured, while Li Chuncheng was thinking about what to do.
During the torture, the couple actually vomited blood and died. After examination, he discovered that the couple had swallowed poison long ago and chose to resist just to make the poison take effect faster.
Li Chuncheng regretted it. This was a dead end without evidence. He asked people to search Lao Jin's house, but there seemed to be nothing valuable in Lao Jin's house. Even the rice in the rice jar was dusty.
"If we eat rice every day, how can the rice jars collect dust?" Zhang Tongming ordered everyone to stand three feet high to look for clues, and then said: "They have a son who looks about ten years old. He must be hiding underground."
Everyone searched for a full three hours, but even after darkness fell, they still couldn't find the tunnel. Zhang Tongming whispered a plan into Li Chuncheng's ear, and then Li Chuncheng ordered everyone to evacuate.
Afterwards, Li Chuncheng and Zhang Tongming quietly lurked on the roof, waiting for the boy Jin who couldn't bear to show up. As expected, in the middle of the night, a man came out of the dry well and looked around, wanting to enter the home to check.
Ichiban. Li Chuncheng learned his lesson this time and stepped forward to restrain the boy and knock him out again. He shook the poison in the boy's mouth, but the boy woke up. When he was about to knock the boy out again, Zhang Tongming stopped him.
Said: "He didn't carry any poison with him."
Li Chuncheng had many ways to deal with an eleven-year-old boy. He first asked someone to tie up the boy's trouser legs, then found a snake and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I will throw the snake into your pants."
The snake will eat your chicken and get into your stomach.
The young man was so frightened that he told his story of his own life.
According to the boy's description, it turned out that they were from Beiyi. He didn't know the purpose of his parents coming here. He had heard about a reward of 10,000 taels of silver in the past few days, but he didn't know the details. The place where the boy was hiding was a dry well.
There is a secret room. There is some food and other things in the secret room, but the mouth of the well is only the size of the mouth of a jar, and no one except the teenager can really get in.
Zhang Tongming said that this secret room must have been built by Lao Jin. There was no way he could not get in, so it was better to dig the wellhead. After everyone worked together to dig the wellhead, they saw that the well wall was actually very wide, and even a strong man like Zhang Tongming could get down.
Everyone found some Northern Yi documents in the secret room, a portrait of Zhang Xiaowu, and another portrait of a bearded man with a square head and big ears, and the bottom was filled with Northern Yi script.
Finally, they found direct evidence, another hand crossbow and twenty crossbow arrows.
Li Chuncheng and Zhang Tongming smiled at each other and finally solved the assassination case.
