Chapter 1102: Traces

The person the murderer really wants to kill is Lin Ben, there is no doubt about it.

And if you want to know who the murderer is, you may start from Lin itself, after all, in Hua Lang's impression, murderers kill people with a certain purpose, and as long as you know the purpose, you will know who the murderer is.

Near the creek, there were no clues, and the murderer was a very calm person, and in that case, he could still do not panic.

Even, after a night of clarity of condensation, even the smell of their bodies was gone.

There was nothing to investigate in this place, and Hua Lang ordered someone to take the body away, but at this time, Hua Lang suddenly found something special, that is, the wounds on Lin Ben's corpse, those wounds that were stabbed by daggers.

Under normal circumstances, there is no groove on the dagger, and ordinary people do not use it, but only the dagger used by the soldiers in the barracks has grooves, and the reason why there are grooves on the dagger is because it is more conducive to killing.

Now, the wounds on Lin Ben's body were obviously stabbed with a grooved dagger, which means that the murderer is most likely a person from the barracks.

But the military camp is half a day's away from this place, and it is unlikely that the murderer will run so far to kill people, so according to these, there are the following situations:

First, the place was deserted, and the murderer accidentally got the dagger left behind by the soldier, so he stabbed Lin Ben's body with that dagger.

Second, the murderer was a deserter, and after he escaped, he also brought out the dagger he was carrying.

Both of these are possible, and in order to verify this, Hua Lang and they have to go to the military camp, but before that, the task of finding the vicious dog cannot be relaxed, and then there is to investigate Lin Ben, investigate all his past, and see who he has offended, and why someone hates him so much.

These investigations could be handed over to Tong Zhuo to do, so after being instructed, Hua Lang and Yin Wuxian rode fast horses directly to the barracks.

This may be the first time Hua Lang has gone to the barracks, but his heart is not excited, some are nervous and uneasy, because in this barracks, he has a person who hates him, Yu Qinghai.

Although Yu Qinghai is in charge of the procurement in the military camp, and he may not come into contact with him this time, the facts are unpredictable, who can say clearly?

After galloping for a long time, they finally came to the barracks, which was very large, full of tents, and the soldiers kept patrolling and drilling, and from time to time there were sounds of fighting.

Today's Great Song Dynasty claims to have millions of soldiers, of course, Hua Lang does not doubt this number, but he knows better that the Great Song Dynasty has raised so many soldiers, but it has not reached the real sense of the majesty, because the Great Song Dynasty is a suppression of martial arts, so even if there are a lot of soldiers, but it has not made them really strong, every year, the military salary allocated by the imperial court has exceeded a lot, but in the middle of the court, they have not taken any action on it, as if they are very clear that the reason why the border of the Great Song Dynasty is still stable, is not that there are any famous generals, is because they have a lot of soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty, they can fight with Western Xia and Liao, and if one is not enough, they can fight two.

This is the advantage of the Great Song Dynasty, of course, after a few decades, there are too many mediocre soldiers, which is also a disadvantage for the Great Song Dynasty.

Hua Lang reported his name, and after a short time, one of the guards led them to a tent, and there were many generals sitting in the tent, one of them was the most imposing, about forty years old, Hua Lang knew that he was Bai Ji, the commander of this place.

After Hua Lang and Yin Wuxian saluted to Bai Ji, they immediately told what happened in Linjia Village outside Linxi City, and after saying this, he said: "I suspect that the murderer may be a deserter in the barracks, so we want to know that Lu Dao has escaped from the barracks in the past two years, or to be more precise, two years ago. ”

After Hua Lang said the purpose of his trip, he stood there and waited for Bai Ji's answer, this matter is not a difficult thing for Bai Ji, as long as he says a word, someone will immediately help Hua Lang to investigate, but when Hua Lang saw Bai Ji's face, he found that something was wrong, because Bai Ji obviously didn't want to help Hua Lang investigate this matter.

Seeing that Bai Ji was silent, Hua Lang said again: "The murder case in Linjia Village may not be anything to the military camp where the fight is normal, but for the villagers there, it is very important. ”

Bai Ji's expression changed slightly, but at this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside: "General, I can't agree with this kid." ”

Although Hua Lang came by the emperor's order, he has no official rank after all, so he is called a boy, which is not bad, but now Hua Lang has passed the age of his establishment, and he is called a boy, which is more or less inappropriate.

And just after this shout fell, a person walked in from outside, this person was burly and bearded, after he came in, Bai Ji frowned slightly, and said, "General Yu, why can't you help the playboy?" ”

After hearing Bai Ji's words, Hua Lang already knew who was coming, and when he saw that Yu Qinghai wanted to oppose this, he was angry in his heart, but Hua Lang stood there laughing and didn't say anything, so he had to continue to stand aside and wait, but although he was waiting, he was very vigilant.

After Yu Qinghai came in, he bowed his hand slightly, and then said: "General, this Hualang investigation of the murder case is his business, what does it have to do with our military camp?" Did he say investigate, and we investigated? ”

Yu Qinghai's words are a bit unreasonable, and there is even no reason at all, but when he said this, Bai Ji had a reason to refuse Hua Lang, but there were some words, but he couldn't say it too directly, so at this time, Bai Ji smiled slightly and said: "Dude, you came here to investigate the murder case by the emperor, and I, Bai Ji, naturally agreed, but this military camp is related to the safety of my Great Song Dynasty, and there are many secrets in it, if it is known by the enemy, I am afraid that my Great Song Dynasty will be in danger, If the danger of the Great Song Dynasty is caused by a murder of the playboy, I don't know who should bear the responsibility for this crime, so ......"

Bai Ji's words were not finished, but the meaning could not be clearer, there are too many secrets in the barracks, it is inconvenient to reveal them to you Hualang, if you are interested, leave quickly.

After listening to Bai Ji's words, Yin Wuxian suddenly said angrily: "We just want to know the situation of the deserters in Lu Dao, how can it endanger the Great Song Dynasty, is it possible, you are sitting and eating empty salaries, afraid that we will know?" ”
