Jian Yu had already received a lot of guests today, so he didn't have much hope, but what this young man said was different from others.
Bai Yue was in the room studying contemporary knowledge when Liang Meng hurried in: "Miss Bai, Miss Bai."
"What's wrong?" Seeing that something was wrong with his expression, Bai Yue stood up suddenly and said with infinite hope: "But is there a clue?"
Liang Meng looked very excited: "Someone has provided a clue."
Bai Yue said hurriedly: "Please tell me carefully where he is."
"A young man came just now." Liang Meng said: "Although he doesn't have medical skills, he said he saw the murderer."
When the victim didn't wake up, he was able to meet the witness. Bai Yue also became energetic: "What did that person say?"
Liang Meng composed himself: "He said that he ate and drank too much with friends the day before. He went home early yesterday morning and took a shortcut through the woods. In a trance, he saw a tall man carrying something on his back. It seemed to be a person."
"Then did he go up and have a look?"
Liang Meng shook his head: "He said he drank too much and was half asleep. It was still early and the forest was dark, so he couldn't see clearly. He disappeared in a blink of an eye. He thought he had seen it wrong. He would wait until he came back.
After a long night of sleep and drinking, he saw the notice we posted today, and then he remembered that what he saw yesterday might be the murderer."
Although it is impossible for a person to see the murderer's face clearly in such a drunken state, it is always a good thing to have witnesses. This is a major clue and the only clue they have now.
Bai Yue said: "Where are they now?"
Liang Meng said: "In the victim's yard, the young master is also there. Although we don't expect him to recognize the victim, we always want him to take a look. What if he can remember something?"
Bai Yue nodded: "I'll go over and have a look too."
Liang Meng responded repeatedly, and then looked outside: "Miss Bai, please wear more layers to avoid catching a cold. It's very cold outside when the snow melts."
There were several heaters burning in the room, and there was no chill at all when the door was closed. Bai Yue only wore a thin autumn home sweater. Now that he was going out, even if it was only for a short distance from the yard to the yard, he had to put on a lot of clothes.
No one knows how long it will take for a girl to change clothes and go out, no matter how urgent it is. Liang Meng called Peggy in and left first.
They came out of the capital for just a few days' vacation, and they didn't bring much clothes. Bai Yue didn't care about this. He was anxious to see the witnesses, so he put on the clothes in a few moments, and Peggy hung them on the hangers.
He put a big white fox velvet cloak on her, stuffed a small hand stove in her, and went out together.
The two of them were shocked when they left the yard.
There was a lot of excitement outside the courtyard, with men, women, old and young dressed in different styles, dancing, chanting sutras, opening altars and performing rituals. There were also masters from unknown sects, using strange postures and talking incomprehensible words.
Although Bai Yue listened lively in the house all day today, she never went out. Then Liang Meng specifically told them not to make too loud noises to disturb the patients. So although she knew that someone was casting spells to exorcise demons outside, she really saw this
The scene of the dancing demons still shocked me.
"Oh my God." Bai Yue stood at the door dumbfounded. What is he doing? A competition for the performance of the All-Kuors Opera? If you have money, you can really do whatever you want.
Peggy just wanted to laugh when she saw Bai Yue, who had always been calm, showing such an expression. She was running inside and outside, because she saw the number of people increasing. From the beginning, she had the same expression as Bai Yue, but later she got used to it, and now she has become accustomed to it.
Very calm.
After Peggy smiled, she comforted her: "Miss Bai, the young master is so kind to you. You were frightened. Look at how nervous he is."
Bai Yue recovered from the shock and felt funny when faced with Paige's teasing.
But it's not important, just make trouble. Bai Yue nodded casually to greet everyone, and then walked forward.
But she never expected that just after taking two steps, a sharp cry came from the tree in front of her, as if a big rooster had its tail burned off.
Bai Yue was startled and naturally looked towards the place where the cry came from. It didn't matter if he didn't look at it. He was stunned when he saw it.
Indeed, just a few steps away, a master in red and green robes was holding a knife in one hand and a big rooster in the other, apparently about to bleed.
That big rooster is very, very majestic and domineering. How can it be captured without restraint? It twists, scratches and flaps its wings. One chicken creates the momentum of a team of people.
The master didn't know whether he was nervous today or hadn't slept well, but he was scratched by the big rooster on his arm. He made a sound, but he didn't catch it and let go.
This was incredible. The big rooster immediately started flying. It was also stunned by fright and rushed forward without knowing the direction.
Unfortunately, Bai Yue was quick and quick to react, and he quickly grabbed Peggy with his sharp hands and hid in the side amidst Peggy's screams.
The big rooster brushed against Bai Yue and pounced on it, trampling over a wooden basin with a clang.
There was thick black dog blood in the basin. Another master was casting a spell on it. The big rooster stepped in and was splashed all over his face. He immediately let out an angry shout.
Although it was just a chicken, there were no martial arts masters at the scene, and it immediately became chaos. If a bad guy appeared, he might be able to swarm him and hold him down, but a chicken covered in blood was flying around in the crowd, lively and agile, and for a while
I really can't catch it.
Bai Yue didn't know how to deal with it, but it was a harmless accident anyway. The scene was already so messy anyway, so he didn't care if it got a little messier, it could always be sorted out.
Eyewitnesses are still important, she thought, no matter what happened behind her, she greeted Peggy and left.
But she only heard Peggy's distant and long exclamation: "Miss, ah..."
There was a soft pop sound, and Bai Yue felt something hit her back. It was still holding on tightly and she couldn't get rid of it for a while.
For a moment, everyone fell silent. The big rooster covered in dog blood was holding the fur of the white fox fur cloak with its two claws and hanging on her back.
It's really heavy, it must weigh seven or eight pounds.
"Miss, don't be afraid, I'll take it away." As a maid, Peggy is not afraid of chickens, ducks and geese, but she also feels that this scene is too bad. Fortunately, this is not in the capital, otherwise she will definitely be arrested.
Everyone has been talking about it as a joke for two years.
"It's okay, I'm not afraid." Bai Yue took a deep breath, kept his body still, looked out, and suddenly grabbed his arm back.
Bai Yue firmly grasped the chicken's neck and picked up the big rooster.
Although they were just catching a chicken, there were many ladies who could do it so neatly. Everyone gasped. Only the owner of the chicken came over in a hurry and took it uneasily.
It was just a small episode, and Bai Yue didn't take it seriously. He waved his hands and told everyone to go ahead and do what they were supposed to do. He was about to continue walking when he was grabbed by Peggy.
"Miss, your clothes..." Peggy pointed at Bai Yue's back.
Bai Yue twisted his neck and looked back. There were patches of red and black blood on his back, as well as mud on the chicken's feet. It was too horrible to look at.
The two of them looked at each other, and Peggy suddenly slapped her head: "I know that the young master has brought you a cloak. It is in his room. My servant will get it for you. You can change your clothes before going."
