Chapter 69 The Murderer

In the night, a face was completely distorted because of hatred, a pair of hands were stuck, no one could stop themselves, no one could, and at that moment, the most touching family affection was completely replaced by the madness of the heart.

The person under him was motionless, his tense fingers slowly released, as if he thought of something, and the whole person quickly fell down, "Brother, I didn't mean to, don't scare me." โ€

Worried about being heard, the voice was as low as possible, the man did not react at all, his trembling arm was slowly stretched out, his palm was placed between his nose, and his body sat directly on the ground, with no breath at all, and the person died.

I can see clearly in the night, and there are tears in my eyes, after all, they are brothers who grew up together, and they have been in love for many years, and now they are strangled to death by themselves.

"What I did, it was all because of the Zhao people, the hateful Zhao people, who ruined my qiฤ“, ruined my miรจ, and let all my qiฤ“ ruin miรจ with this fire."

The man got up, his eyes fell on the location of the shipyard, outside the shipyard was the Zhao State military camp, the arm holding the flammable material trembled with hatred, the footsteps came, and the man was alert and quickly ran down in the direction of the shipyard.

"I heard it."

Tie Dan came with two people, one with sharp eyes, "Brother Tie Dan, there." โ€

A figure ran downward, in the direction of the shipyard, "Chase." โ€

The three of them launched, and one of them stumbled and fell directly to the ground, "Ouch." This time he suddenly fell very hard, Tie Dan looked back and was surprised, and in the night he vaguely saw a person lying behind him, lying there motionless.

"It's Ergou."

"You kid is not righteous, lying here stumbling old man."

The man who tripped over got up from the ground with a curse, "Get up, don't play dead." A kick over, the second dog did not respond at all, bent down, and fell to the ground in fright, "The second dog is dead." โ€

"Kill, kill people and set fires, this kind of person must not be let go."

"It should be to burn the ship, that is our hard work, and we must not let people destroy it."

"Chase."

Iron eggs are also some skills in the village, hunting in the mountains, going into the water to fish everything, plus people are also strong, if it is not for this, how can a girl like Xiuzhu take a fancy to it.

The three figures chased downward, and only then did the incident change, and the figure disappeared, but it was certain that the person who killed the second dog must be the one who set fire to the boat.

In the night, I could see clearly that a big boat was lying there, and there was no one around, "Where did you go?" โ€

"Look around."

The three of them were divided left and right, and they stopped almost at the same time, and three people jumped out from under the warship, holding sharp swords to block the figures of the three people, and the tip of the sword pressed against the chests of the three people.

"We're here to catch the arsonists."

"Qubble, I'll talk about it when I see the general."

The torch was lit at the waterfront, and a person behind a boulder quickly turned to leave, and Lei Meng got the news, "Three people? โ€

"The three of them have already been charged, and they are just waiting for the general to go and interrogate."

"Okay."

Lei Meng led his troops to the shipyard, "It's you!" "I have heard of the king personally giving the marriage iron egg, and the iron egg is diligent and diligent on weekdays, and he doesn't want to do this kind of thing at all.

"General, Tie Dan brought people to catch thieves, not arsonists."

"Catch the thief, where is the thief?"

"This." Tie Dan is difficult to argue, and he can clearly see it, because the matter of the second dog is delayed, and the person is gone, and he is directly controlled by the soldiers hiding in the shadows when he runs here.

"We can testify."

Lei Meng sneered, "You are a gang, of course you are willing to testify, unless you come up with convincing evidence." โ€

"Proof!" Tie Dan's eyes rolled, "Since it is arson, there are at least things on the body that can ignite fire or things that can ignite fire, if the general doesn't believe it, he will know it, not to mention, there are no three people to set fire to such a thing." โ€

Lei Meng nodded and signaled, a few people quickly stepped forward, there was nothing else on their bodies, what Tie Dan said made some sense, the more people there were, the easier it was to be discovered, and the soldiers who were called to guard the bottom of the boat.

The soldier said: "At that time, I heard someone talking, it seemed that he was looking for someone, and the other party approached the warship, and it was inevitable that he would lose it, so he could only subdue it first." โ€

Behind him, he joined the army and said: "General, there may be a misunderstanding in it." โ€

"Since you said you saw fire thieves coming in the direction of the shipyard, why are there no people here?"

"At that time, there was an accident so there was a delay, and I must have taken advantage of this time to escape."

"Accident?"

"A body was found in the direction of the hillside."

"Corpse, go see."

Lei Meng led people to rush to the place where the body was found, and the torch approached, and his expression changed, "Why is he!" Lying there and dying, it was the last time the shipwright Lei Meng found the fire remembered clearly, and now he was killed.

"Did you see that person coming down from this position at the time?"

Tie Dan nodded, "Just as the general said." โ€

"If you see that person again, can you recognize the back of Tong Guรฒ?"

Several people shook their heads repeatedly, "It was dark and unrecognizable. โ€

"That's it!"

Someone died, a group of boatmen came to watch, and one of them cried and shouted, "Second brother, there is no grudge against people on weekdays, which god killed you, sue the third brother, and the third brother will avenge you." โ€

The old man stepped forward, "Three, don't be sad, people can't be resurrected after death, there is a general who will definitely make decisions for you, and the dead will be fair." โ€

"Yes, find out the murderer, and the murderer must not go unpunished."

Lei Meng's face was gloomy, what he was most worried about was still happening, now the arson thief was not caught but there was a murder, the murderer must be hidden among the shipwrights, if the murderer cannot be found, everyone will be in danger at that time, how can they still have the heart to build a warship.

"Don't worry, before the murderer is found, General Ben promised you to ensure your safety, come here, the three of them will supervise first, and increase the defensive forces around the barracks."

A team of soldiers was stationed quickly, and the boatmen looked around, although there was more safety but less comfort, "Forget it, it's important to save your life." โ€

The boatmen retreated one after another, and Lei Meng ordered people to rush back to report to the king, and the dead two dogs simply made a coffin and parked it in the shade.

A few fast horses galloped in, Zhao Kuo got the news, calculated that the warship should be built in time, the guards walked in quickly, Zhao Kuo opened the bamboo slip, "Something like this happened, Bai Ying, Mu Chen." โ€

The guards were left and right, and it didn't take long for the two to arrive in the inner city, the war horses were ready, the king held the reins, and knew in his heart that something must have happened, so he didn't have to ask about flying on the horse, Mu Chen's face was happy, he was tortured by Feng Zhu every day, and now he could finally go out and be happy.

Zhao Kuo and his entourage rushed to the waterfront, Lei Meng led the crowd to greet him, Zhao Kuo flew down from the horse, Bai Ying and Mu Chen lined up left and right, "Lei Meng has the trust of the king, please punish the king." โ€

"Now is not the time to hold those responsible, let's go and see the corpses first."

A group of people came to the front, a few days passed, there was a murder, the progress of shipbuilding was affected, and the shipbuilders were in danger, but fortunately, there were soldiers of Zhao State guarding around.

When the group came closer, Zhao Kuo bent down to take a closer look, there were no injuries on the surface of the body, and black bruises appeared under the neck, "I was strangled to death with my hands." โ€

Lei Meng looked carefully, "It's strange, the end of the day will have been checked, and there are no such black marks at all!" โ€

Zhao Kuo smiled: "This is a corpse spot, which will only appear after a period of death." "Corpse spots are also the basis for modern case solving, Zhao Kuo is proficient in medical skills and also knows about corpses.

"So that's the case, if you catch three people that night, will the king interrogate you?"

"No need, bring everyone here."

Zhao Kuo had already prepared, a group of boatmen gathered, and the three of Tie Dan were brought to the front, "King, Tie Dan is wronged." โ€

"Who is the real murderer is not the final word of this king, heaven and earth Zhaozhao has its own retribution, this king has greeted the deceased before, and is determined to identify the murderer in person!"

When the words fell, everyone was talking, how to identify a dead man, Zhao Kuo nodded, Bai Ying stepped forward, holding a bronze tripod in his hand, and came to everyone, "This tripod is the soul tripod, as long as you put your palm in, the unjust soul will leave marks on the murderer's palm." โ€

"I see." Everyone nodded one after another, and the coffin was placed on the side, and the bronze tripod in Bai Ying's hand suddenly gave people a sense of mystery.

"Who's coming first?"

A group of shipwrights looked at each other, and no one wanted to be the first to go over, "King, Tie Dan will come first." โ€

"Those who are clean will clear themselves, and this king will not wronged anyone."

Tie Dan stepped forward, his palm stretched in, and Bai Yingtongding shook slightly, "Next." The soldier quickly stepped forward and took the iron egg aside so that no one could see the flaw in it.

Everyone moved forward in turn, and someone checked on the side, and thirty-eight boatmen, except for the dead two dogs, the remaining thirty-seven people tried in turn.

"Now put your palms out."

The palm of the hand slowly stretched out, the whole palm turned completely black, Tie Dan's heart tightened, and he heard clearly what the king said, the one with the black palm was the murderer, his own palm, looked sideways, put his heart down, except for one person, everyone's palms were black.

"Catch him."
