Di Feng looked at what Li Canghai was pointing at, and was stunned to find that what he was referring to was actually the statue of the mountain god!

Di Feng was very smart, he instantly understood what Li Canghai meant, and shouted incredulously: "Childe is saying that there is a secret passage here?" ”

Li Canghai sighed, and then said, "I did think so, but I searched for a long time, and I didn't find any clues about the secret passage. ”

Di Feng blinked his eyes and said excitedly: "Childe, since you think there is a secret passage here, then let's look for it carefully!" ”

Li Canghai glanced at him approvingly, so the two of them looked for it seriously around the statue of the mountain god.

This time, the two searched very carefully, but they still didn't find anything.

Li Canghai couldn't help but suspect that there was something wrong with his speculation, if there was no secret passage, then the previous inferences would be all wrong.

Could it be that the murderer really disappeared out of thin air like this? Removing the corpse from the pool of blood is just a suspicion?

Rubbing his temples with a headache, Li Canghai asked, "What news do you have over there?" ”

Di Feng immediately came to his senses, and he said: "According to what Gongzi said, I have been secretly observing the dumb man all day, and he has nothing abnormal except for striking iron." ”

"He didn't leave the blacksmith for a day? Have you been anywhere else? Li Canghai frowned and asked.

Di Feng thought about it seriously and said, "I went to the back mountain about three moments, but it was to worship his deceased parents, and he didn't go anywhere else. ”

Li Canghai suddenly remembered where he had seen that kind of spider, who was engaged in criminal investigation, and had extremely keen observation of things around him, and he had seen this kind of spider after waking up, and it was in the back mountain.

"Back Mountain...... Spider. ”

Li Canghai stood up suddenly, startled Di Feng, and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, let's go to the back mountain." ”

The next morning, Li Canghai got up very early, and he and Di Feng hid in the dark, quietly observing the movements of Dumb Tie.

Indeed, as Di Feng said, Dumb Iron did not have any abnormal behavior.

Just as the two of them were about to go to the back mountain, many officers and soldiers suddenly came to the village, and it seemed that a big official had come.

Li Canghai was a little curious, and only after asking did he know that there was a captain.

As soon as the captain arrived, he immediately summoned the whole village and asked everyone to gather in front of the mountain temple.

Li Canghai had no choice but to go with the villagers, and when he came to the mountain temple, he saw the captain sitting on a chair, his face was cloudy and gloomy.

Di Huai sat aside, frowning and drinking tea.

"Hey, how could it be him?" Di Feng was taken aback and said in a low voice.

"You know him?" Li Canghai asked.

Di Feng tilted his head and thought about it, and suddenly his face was a little ugly: "His name is Huang Mang, he is a school captain, and he is in charge of a barracks. ”

"So what?" Li Canghai was a little puzzled.

Di Feng paused and said, "The person who the deceased wants to marry is his younger brother. ”

Li Canghai suddenly realized that his prospective brother-in-law was killed, no wonder his face was so ugly.

Huang Mang sat on the chair, he took a sip of tea, and a tyranny suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Who is Li Canghai?" Huang Mang suddenly shouted.

Li Canghai was stunned, he walked out of the crowd and said, "It's down there." ”

Huang Mang's eyes lit up, he pointed at him with his hand, and shouted, "Tie me up!" ”

The two soldiers immediately walked up and reached out to grab Li Canghai's arm.

The sudden change made Li Canghai a little stunned, and he immediately shouted, "Why did the adults tie me up? ”

Huang Mang snorted and said coldly: "Just because you killed the people of my Huang family, take it away!" With that, Huang Mang got up and left.

Li Canghai knew in his heart that there must have been villagers secretly reporting the news, which made him think that Li Canghai was the real murderer.

"Wait." Di Huai quickly stopped Huang Mang and said, "Captain Huang, I said that he is not the real murderer. ”

Obviously, Di Huai told him what happened, but now it seems that Huang Mang didn't believe him.

"He's not the murderer, who is the murderer?" Huang Mang sneered.

"He is not the murderer, but the one who investigates the murderer. Give him a moment, and before sunset, he will find the murderer. Di Huai said in a deep voice without giving in.

Although Huang Mang has the power of the army, Di Huai is the head of a county after all, and he said solemnly: "Okay, I'll give you this face, before sunset, he can't find the murderer, don't blame me for being polite!" ”

As he spoke, he motioned to the soldiers to let go of Li Canghai.

Di Huai walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Canghai, time is running out, if you haven't found out the real murderer before sunset, I'm afraid I can't do anything." ”

Li Canghai smiled indifferently and said, "Thank you for your help, before sunset, I will definitely find evidence." ”

After this episode, Li Canghai and Di Feng no longer stayed, and raced against time to go back to the mountain.

The two came to an open field halfway up the mountain, where stood a grave with some offerings in front of it.

"Childe, what are we doing here?" Di Feng was a little puzzled.

Li Canghai didn't answer him, but frowned and asked, "You said that dumb man comes here every day to worship?" ”

Di Feng nodded: "I have inquired, he will come here every day to worship his relatives, rain or shine." I didn't expect this mute to be a very filial person. ”

"What time is it?" Li Canghai asked again.

Di Feng looked up at the sky and said, "It should be the right time, is there anything wrong?" ”

Just then, a footstep was heard in the distance.

Li Canghai made a boo gesture and hurriedly pulled Di Feng to hide in the artemisia grass on the side and hid.

I saw the mute man carrying a basket of fruits, came to the grave, took out the fruits, carefully wiped them, and then placed them neatly.

With their backs to Li Canghai, the two could only see a rough idea, and he seemed to be weeding the grave.

After about half an hour had passed, the mute man got up and walked back with his basket.

"Childe, it seems that you guessed wrong, he shouldn't be the murderer." Looking at the dumb man's distant back, Di Feng suddenly said.

Li Canghai glanced at him and asked, "Oh, why?" ”

"He is a very filial person, how can he kill people? We also saw it just now, and he was also seriously weeding the grave! Di Feng touched his chin and said.

"The way to solve a case, nothing can be just on the surface. He used to come to worship his parents every day, but if he didn't come because of my testimony, it would increase the suspicion of others. This man is thoughtful, and he is by no means an ordinary person. ”

Li Canghai shook his head and walked to the tomb and took a closer look.

Because of the angle, Li Canghai and the others didn't see what the dumb man was doing, but they just relied on his movements to guess that he was cleaning the grave.

Learning from the dumb appearance, half-sitting in front of the tomb, Li Canghai felt more and more strange.

"This dumb person is too careless, I can't even see such obvious cobwebs, so I'll help clean it up." Di Feng suddenly said something inexplicable, and then his hand reached on the tombstone.

Li Canghai followed his fingers and saw a spider web hanging on the tombstone, a spiritual light quickly flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly shouted: "Stop!" ”

This shout startled Di Feng, and he looked at Li Canghai in a daze, his fingers just stopping less than three inches away from the cobweb.

Li Canghai finally understood what was strange, this tomb was made of bricks and stones, and there were not too many weeds, since the dumb man was weeding here, there was no trace of weeding around.

He was now certain that the spiders on the beams of the mountain temple were from here.

At the same time, a guess arose in his head.

In order to verify what he thought, he asked Di Feng to learn the movements of the mute man in front of the grave, and ran to the side to see it.

After looking at it a few times, he suddenly realized that the action was not pulling weeds, but fiddling with something.

Li Canghai came to the grave and carefully observed every piece of masonry on the grave, which made Di Feng look inexplicable, and thought he was crazy.

"Found it!"

Li Canghai's fingers loosened, and with a fierce force, he pulled out a piece of masonry behind the tombstone.

Di Feng hurriedly leaned over and found that there were many objects in the masonry.

The masonry was much larger than ordinary masonry, and the surface of the masonry was hollowed out like a box.

Inside lay a thick epistle with a thin rope in it.

Li Canghai picked up a letter and read it, and after a while, the expression on his face became solemn.

"Childe, how can there be these things in this grave? What are these letters? Looking at Li Canghai's solemn expression, Di Feng suddenly asked with some itching.

Li Canghai let out a long breath and said, "The effect of scaring the grass and the snake has come out, everything is clear, you go and inform Lord Di and let everyone go to the mountain temple." ”

Di Feng wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Canghai waving his hand, so he had to nod depressedly.
