Chapter 1118: Northwest Heavenly Wolf
In the middle of spring, Linxi City is full of flowers.
They hadn't run around for a long time since the end of the Endless Murder, because they suddenly found out that it was dangerous in this place, and that war could break out at any time, and if they could, they really wanted to leave this place quickly.
It's just that they want to leave, but they can't.
There are some things that have not been done, and they cannot leave.
Linxi City slowly became lively, and at this time, many rich children in Linxi City often went out of the city to hunt together, which was very high-spirited, so that Hua Lang couldn't help but think of Su Shi's poem:
The old man chatted about the boyish madness, the left led Huang, the right Qingcang, the brocade hat and the mink Qiu, and the thousand horses rolled Pinggang. In order to repay the city, follow the Taishou, shoot the tiger in person, and watch Sun Lang.
The wine is still open, and the temples are slightly frosty, so what's the matter? In the clouds, when will Feng Tang be sent? Will hold the bow like a full moon, look northwest, and shoot the wolf.
When he thought of this poem, Hua Lang, who had not been out of the city for a long time, suddenly wanted to go out of the city, he wanted to be like Su Shi, carving a bow like a full moon and shooting a wolf in the northwest, that kind of heroism, as if it did not only belong to people who marched and fought, even if it was a scholar, it should also be.
Thinking of it, Hua Lang did it, although he was not good at hunting, but he still bought a few sets of bows and arrows in Linxi City, and then they went out of the city with Yin Wuxi, Yin Wuxian and Wen Meng are both from the rivers and lakes, hunting is the easiest thing for them, and they are overjoyed when they hear that they are going to go hunting.
The grass outside Linxi City grows very densely, and from time to time there are a few rabbits shuttling in it, standing on horseback without mistake, shooting an arrow, no false hair, Hua Lang took the bow and arrow and meowed several times, put it down after the most, and shook his head: "It seems that hunting is really not my strong point." ”
Everyone laughed, and Wen Meng was even more happy: "You finally admit that you have something you can't do." ”
Hanalang shrugged: "I never said I could do anything!" ”
A few people talked and played, and after picking up the rabbit they had hit, they set up a fire at noon, and soon the aroma of rabbit meat overflowed, making people can't help but drool.
And just when everyone was eating rabbit meat, there was a sudden sound of barking dogs not far away, followed by an exclamation, and then the sound of killing people.
When they ran, there were already many rich children standing in that place, and these rich children were standing aside and discussing, but none of them dared to come forward.
Hua Lang stepped forward to take a look, and found that in the dense grass, lying a corpse, the corpse had an arrow stuck in it, which was very eye-catching, and there was a dog on the side that kept barking, the owner of the dog was a young man in brocade, the young man in brocade looked nervous, and kept trying to comfort his dog.
Hua Lang only glanced at it, then understood, and asked, "You shot this arrow?" When Hua Lang said this, he looked at the brocade boy and asked, the brocade boy was even more nervous, and he stammered when he spoke: "I...... I...... I didn't mean to, I thought it was a rabbit. ”
The people next to him talked a lot, some people seemed to sympathize with the brocade boy, and kept saying that this was a misunderstanding, while some people snorted coldly, saying that rabbits can't tell the difference between people, who believes it?
When the discussion started, it was a little intense, as if the two sides were willing to give up because they couldn't fight a big fight, Hua Lang frowned slightly, waved his hand to stop: "The deceased has already appeared on his body, it is obvious that he died last night, why do you quarrel?" ”
When everyone heard Hua Lang's words, they were speechless, and at this time, I don't know who suddenly asked, "Who are you?" There's a murder here, shouldn't we report it to the government? ”
Hua Lang smiled indifferently: "In Xia Hualang, although he is not from the government, he also has the right to investigate the murder case. ”
Linxi City is not big, and they all know about Hua Lang's case solving in Linxi City, and now they can hear the person in front of them calling himself Hua Lang, and they are amazed, and in addition to the exclamation, the person who talked a lot just now retreated again and again, for fear that Hua Lang would be unhappy for a while and find him trouble.
But just as the person was retreating, Hanalang had already turned around and went to inspect the corpse, and the person who retreated seemed to be very curious, and when he saw Hanalang inspecting the corpse, he immediately squeezed forward again.
Hua Lang took off the deceased's clothes, and after some examination, it was found that the deceased was about 30 years old, with a moderate stature, and a good length, with eight knife wounds on the lower abdomen and chest, two of which were fatal wounds on the chest.
After looking at the body in this way, Hua Lang looked around again, and some straw had fallen nearby, but although the straw had fallen, there was no blood, that is, this was not the scene of the murder, and the deceased was transported here after being killed by the murderer.
After examining these, Hanalang got up and asked, "Do you know the deceased?" ”
Those brocade-clothed people came forward to look, but none of them knew the deceased, Hua Lang was a little disappointed, and said, "Which of you goes to the Yamen of Linxi City, tell Tong Zhuo, and let him send someone here." ”
After Hua Lang gave the order, someone immediately rode a fast horse and rushed to the Yamen of Linxi City, and after the person left, those who watched the excitement also dispersed one after another, and after they left, Wen Meng asked: "How can there be a corpse here, it's really unlucky." ”
Hanaro shrugged, as long as there is greed and hatred in this world, then there will be dead people, which is a series of chain reactions caused by human nature.
Linxi City was not very far from the place where the corpse was found, about a stick of incense later, Tong Zhuo brought someone over, when he saw the corpse, he hurriedly took a step back, and then asked nervously: "Dude, is this ...... How did this happen again? ”
Hua Lang frowned slightly, and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to ask you, the chief of Linxi City?" ”
"Q...... Ask me? Tong Zhuo was very puzzled and nervous.
Hua Lang snorted coldly: "If you govern Qingming, how can there be frequent murders?" ”
Tong Zhuo didn't say a word, obviously even more afraid, although this Hualang is not an official of the imperial court, but after all, he has the emperor's token, and he still can't afford to provoke it.
Hua Lang's words just now were just to warn Tong Zhuo, but now that he has said it, he has said it, and the next thing is to do the right thing.
"Lord Tong, you will wait for this corpse to come to Xicheng, let the family of the deceased come to identify the corpse, and then send a few people to inquire here to see if the people in the vicinity heard any movement last night."
Hearing Hua Lang's instructions on this case, Tong Zhuo greeted him again and again, and at this time, the look on his face recovered, because he knew that he was no longer in danger.
