Forced to become Long Aotian

Chapter 46 [When Nian looks at Guan Shanyue]

Mo Liyu's forehead was almost dripping with sweat, he collected himself and asked again: "The murder weapon, what is the murder weapon?"

Jin Mantang replied: "The murder weapon is very common, but a dagger."

"What kind of dagger?" Mo Yuyu asked.

"That's unknown..." Jin Mantang shook his head and said, "It's probably an ordinary dagger."

There was nothing to see in the hall, so after turning around again, I went to the study to look for any clues that had been missed.The study is built on the west side, push the door to enter, the light is a little weak in the evening, there is heavy dust floating, and the space is narrow.

As soon as Mo Liyu went in, his nose itched and he coughed from choking.He rubbed his nose in pain, let a few children stay outside, divided up the dry food he brought, asked Gu Fenggui's juniors to look after him, and went into the room by himself.

The books that have been stored for ten years are full of moths, and the books are arranged in a patchwork on the bookshelf.Mo Liyu leaned over and took out a few books from the bookcase.The master of this family should be a well-behaved old scholar. Most of his books are "The Analects of Confucius", "Historical Records", "Zuo Zhuan" and other tomes.

Mo Yuyu flipped through the pages of the book, and suddenly a few pages of pictorials fell out of the elegant thread-bound book. They turned out to be some pictures of unruly ladies with flimsy clothes and unrestrained manners.

"Tch!" Mo Huayu saw it and sneered.I squinted my eyes and took a good look. It was indeed just a pictorial, nothing else.

Unconsciously, he wanted to put the scroll back to its original place, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a pale finger lightly touching the spine of a volume of "Chu Ci".Mo Liyu's heart trembled slightly, he could guess who the owner of this finger was without looking up.The rounded fingertips are clean and spotless, but there is a circular scar on the back of this flawless white hand.After more than a month, the wound finally healed.

The drawing paper that I hadn't noticed just now was hot in my arms like it was on fire.

He frantically stuffed the book back into place, but the original place of the book was completely occupied by the fallen book, and he couldn't put it back no matter what.

The white hand covered it again, covering the spine of the book he was holding, and then gently pushed in, and the book returned to its original place.However, the drawing paper was squeezed out more prominently.

Mo Liyu wanted to cover it up with his hands, but Gu Fenggui's eyes darkened, and he pulled it out first.

"I, I didn't see it!" Mo Liyu was inexplicably guilty, raising his hands to the sky.

In fact, this kind of pictorial, if you read it, you can read it, what can you do?It's a big man with a strong blood, who doesn't like to see pictures of ladies?Those who don't like to watch are the ones with a brain problem!There are ghosts in my heart!He was supposed to be a little thick-skinned, and he admitted that it was fine, but when he saw those ice-blue eyes, he felt a little short of breath.

Mo Liyu kept complaining in his heart, what happened last night, could it be that Gu Fenggui tricked him when he touched his forehead, making him jump up and down at every turn.

Gu Fenggui lifted his eyelids, his ice-blue eyes became clearer and colder, like a frost knife with a cold light.Gu Fenggui said flatly, "So Daoist Mo likes to watch this kind of thing?"

Don't lie, where do you like to look at the species?To be honest, he wasn't naturally interested in that sort of thing.Little girl, pretty is beautiful, especially beautiful, just take a few more glances to make him feel comfortable. Putting a hundred pictures of ladies in front of him is really not as attractive to him as a book of swordsmanship.

But when the words came to his lips, he immediately felt that his taste had changed.My heart was agitated by the incident last night, I didn't know whether it existed or not, and I felt very empty, so I touched the tip of my nose and said stiffly: "Of course I like to watch it. I, I watch it every day and every night. Could it be that Gu Dao Do you like to watch it?"

Gu Fenggui didn't speak immediately.He looked quiet, too quiet.Those too fair cheeks melted into the faint setting sun outside the window, and the handsome and profound outline was carefully painted with a layer of light by the setting sun.He blinked quietly, the long and curly eyelashes covering his light blue pupils like an armor, perfectly hiding all his emotions.

He remained calm, just nodded, then neatly folded up the picture of a lady, and put it in Mo Huayu's arms.

Mo Liyu couldn't figure out what Gu Fengguidao was thinking, but this action made him feel uncomfortable.He randomly rubbed the picture of a lady and stuffed it into the corner of the bookshelf. "By the way," he shrugged, and said indifferently, "I haven't thanked you for what happened last night. You still gave me the recliner. I didn't sleep well, and Daoist Gu didn't read my jokes Bar?"

"No," Gu Fenggui said flatly, "Mo Daochang is very quiet when he is asleep."

"Really?" Mo Liyu scratched his head embarrassingly, and said: "My master has always said that I love to move when I sleep, so it's good that I didn't scare Daoist Gu...did Daoist Gu sleep well last night?" Mo Liyu Taking this opportunity to look up at Gu Fenggui carefully, he deliberately said, "I see Daoist Gu's eyelids are turning blue." Of course, this is a lie, what level of cultivation is Gu Fenggui?Even though he hadn't slept all night, his complexion was normal at this time, and a rough estimate of the fight with him was still [-]-[-].

Gu Fenggui said calmly: "Master Mo was joking."

"What are you talking about here?" Jin Mantang suddenly turned his head from the bookshelf.

Mo Liyu patted the center of his eyebrows, dare to say that Jin Mantang was the only one collecting evidence for such a long time.With a guilty conscience, he lowered his head and pretended to turn over the book, flipped through the book, and said, "I didn't say anything, you, what did you find?"

Jin Mantang raised a thin booklet in his hand and said, "I found the family tree of this family."

The genealogy is very important information. They can find out all the clan members related to this family according to the genealogy.Most of the massacres were committed by their own family members, so the person they were looking for was probably among them.

Don't lie and said: "Take a look." Jin Mantang flew the book over.

Don't lie, look at ten lines at a glance, and flip through them quickly.The family's surname was Zeng, and the master's name was Zeng Chengzhou. There were three pairs of children under his knees, one of whom died young.The five children are very close in age, the oldest is only ten years old, and the youngest is only six years old.Except for the youngest one, named Zeng Gaoxing, who was born to the second wife, the rest were all born to the eldest lady.There are still some notes on the corners of the genealogy, most of which are the birth dates of the children of some well-matched families, probably used in preparation for marriage after adulthood.

Among them, Zeng Gaoxing wrote two birthdays next to his name.One birthday was the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, but it was crossed out with a Chinese ink pen, and another third day of the first lunar month was written with a Chinese ink pen.

Jin Mantang came over, tapped Zeng Gaoxing's name, and said, "There is something wrong with this kid."

"How to say?" Mo Yu asked.

Jin Mantang glanced at Mo Yuyu, shook his head, and said, "Of course I don't understand people born like you. Those born in a rich family like ours always say that there is a difference between a concubine and a concubine. The eldest wife is born with a concubine. , can inherit the thousands of family fortunes; and the concubine born to the concubine has no status in the family and will be kicked out to make a living early. This Zeng Gaoxing is the only concubine of the Zeng family and the youngest, what do you think? If his brothers, sisters and aunts don't bully him, who will they bully?"

Mo Liyu was thoughtful, he really didn't understand the intrigue in this kind of big family.Jin Mantang's idea seemed to make sense at first glance, but after thinking about it deeply, some things couldn't be explained.

Mo lied: "You mean, you think Zeng Gaoxing did it?"

Jin Mantang plausibly said: "That's right."

Don't lie and said: "If there was internal fighting over the division of the family property, what should we say about the death of the second wife? She was Zeng Gaoxing's biological mother; secondly, the number of deaths did not match. Jin Mantang said that all the Zeng family owned at that time The young master is already listed outside the door, what should I say? Zeng Gaoxing must have killed himself and arranged his own position before committing suicide. These two points alone make no sense at all."

"That's right," Jin Mantang rubbed his chin, "then it must not be him, eh, no, so none of them..."

"That's right," Mo said, "if all of them are here, it means that any one of them may not be here."

"What do you mean?" Jin Mantang was completely surrounded by Mo Yuyu.

Mo Liyu explained in another way: "Who knows this family best?"

Jin Mantang thought for a while, and said, "Probably the neighbors in the neighborhood."

"No," Mo Yuyu shook his head and said, "People are only interested in their own affairs. Do you know how many people there are in your neighbor's family, and what does everyone look like? So the only one who knows this family best is this family, and this The whole family died in the yard. So who was among them, as an outsider, is vague. So when they see six dead bodies outside the door, they may not really be able to tell who is who."

"Oh oh oh!" Jin Mantang suddenly realized, "That means one of them may be a substitute!"

Mo lied: "I didn't say definitely, I just said that this possibility cannot be ruled out."

Jin Mantang curled his lips and said, "I don't know you kid yet? Generally, what you say is correct. To be honest, if I didn't know you too well, I would really think that you did this. .”

Jin Mantang was talking nonsense in this round, don't lie, he just thought he was joking, and didn't take it to heart.He closed the scroll and said, "And don't forget, the Zeng Gaoxing you mentioned was only about six years old when the incident happened. He was only much older than Mo Xiaobing. How could it be him who did it?" ?”

It's getting late, and if you don't go back, you have to light the night lights. This place is full of sunshine during the day and can still treat people, so I'm afraid that ghosts will start making trouble at night.Mo Yuyu came out of the study.Mo Wangsi also led Mo Xiaobing around outside the door.Mo Xiaobing, although he is not considered a good seed for cultivating the Tao except for his extraordinary talent in eating and sleeping, he has one skill, which is to make everyone around him willingly take care of him.

The children in the Qingcheng Immortal Mansion, although on the surface they seem to be old-fashioned and carved out of the same mold as Gu Fenggui, now one is holding Mo Xiaobing, the other is picking mulberries for Mo Xiaobing on the tree, and the other is using green A thousand origami cranes were folded on the spirit talisman paper of Chengxian Mansion, and Mo Xiaobing played with it.

Mo Yuyu saw that it was a little funny, and said: "The haunted house has been turned into a vegetable market by you, how can you make the ghosts feel so bad?"

Seeing that Gu Fenggui also came out with Mo Liyu, the children of Qingcheng Immortal Mansion immediately stopped playing and stood upright.Gu Fenggui didn't speak, just glanced at them, and led them out.Mo Wangsi hurriedly threw Mo Xiaobing into the bamboo basket, and he didn't want the mulberries, he carried his back well, and followed Mo Yuyu step by step, but Mo Yu was reluctant to leave, and Mo Yuyu gave him a hard look.

"By the way, Daoist Mo, can you do me a favor?" Jin Mantang took a big step, approached Mo Liyu, and elbowed him and said.

Mo Liyu scratched the back of his ears indifferently, tilted his head and said, "Young Master Jin asked me for help? It's really strange."

"Speak well if you have something to say, and talk well if you have something to say." Jin Mantang discussed.

Although in the teahouse he spoke uprightly and righteously, saying that he would be poor if he didn’t pay him this time, but he is a businessman after all, and if he doesn’t make a fortune, he will feel uncomfortable all over, so it is rare to have the opportunity to rip off It's delivered to his mouth, if he doesn't want it, he's really afraid that he will suffer retribution in the future. "Okay," Mo Huayu breathed out, "It depends on the sincerity of Young Master Jin." He put his two fingers together and made a standard finger rubbing motion.

Even though he knew that Mo Yuyu recognized money but not people, and had no conscience, Jin Mantang almost felt angry at this moment.Didn't they agree to be brothers?Do you talk about money like that?Of course, he can't say this, because Mo Liyu can not only say, brother, settle accounts clearly, but also say, when did you and your brother?Jin Mantang strongly suppressed the urge to add another record to this haunted house, and said, "Can you help me tell Daoist Gu, don't investigate this matter."

Jin Mantang muttered: "Hey, I really don't understand. The old case so many years ago just happened to be a will-o'-the-wisp, and I insisted on investigating it. What else can I investigate? People are dead. I knew this case back then. The thing is, it's gone long ago, and I can't investigate it if I want to. If the ten-year unsolved case is so bad, can it still have no clues yet?

"It's also unlucky. This happened in Jingnan City. It's my territory, but it's also their Qingcheng Immortal Mansion's territory. You also know that the people in Qingcheng Immortal Mansion are troublesome. No matter what happened, I have to find out the truth for you. This time it's that Gu Fenggui who came here... It's not like you don't know that my house is a mess. Xing'er is still locked up in the dungeon, so you don't know Do you still have a breath, I am outside, my heart is really not outside, I really want to go back soon..."

"what do you mean?"

Jin Mantang glanced at Gu Fenggui, saw that he was walking in front, and didn't pay attention to the movement here, so he said with confidence: "Just, you just tell Gu Fenggui, let's forget about it. You see, we I’ve been here for a day or two, and I’ve looked everywhere, but there’s really no clue, it’s a dead end, what’s the point here? Now I’m back at the teahouse, let’s make up a story together, I’ll tell my dad that when I go back How about going back and saying to him Master, everyone is happy, isn't it good?"

After listening to Mo Yuyu, he sneered and said, "Although the money is very easy to earn, I really don't want to cheat you. Because Gu Fenggui will definitely not agree to you."

"I know this," Jin Mantang said, "That's why I asked you to be my lobbyist. Didn't you find out? Gu Fenggui will listen to everything you say."

Jin Mantang didn't have a good mouth, he dared to say anything, and Mo Liyu almost jumped up in shock, and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about? He, why did he listen to me?"

"Not yet," Jin Mantang glanced at Mo Yuyu contemptuously, and said, "It's not just about listening, he basically does everything according to you? Think about it for yourself, it's been so long since you've been out, and you've dealt with so many times, Gu Can Fenggui tell you 'no' once?"

Mo Liyu's heart skipped a beat, he became more and more flustered, it seemed so, but...but that's because he didn't make any request to refuse, just like Gu Fenggui never once said "no" to Jin Mantang Words, because he never paid attention to Jin Mantang.Mo Liyu was out of breath, and was about to beat Jin Mantang with his fists, when he heard a cry of exclamation from ahead.

A disciple of Qingcheng Immortal Mansion reported to Gu Fengguihui with horror on his face: "Brother, the door... this door can't be opened..."
