Chapter 28: Frequent murders

In the afternoon of that day, Shaoqing Huang Yong of Dali Temple came in person.
"Li Changshi!" Huang Yong took the civil servant who called Lianhao, took a pick, took a lacquer box, and sent it to the Exorcist Secretary's patio. Li Jinglong was suffering from a hangover and had scattered hair, and his brows were deeply locked. Come out to meet guests.
After the imperial examination case, Dali Temple dared not roll his eyes at Li Jinglong again. After all, he worked hard for the country and was favored by the emperor. Huang Yong smiled and was kind. He said, "I haven't gotten up yet? , Your exorcism division must have gone out at night to catch the demon ... "
"Please inside." Li Jinglong only got Sanjun back in the day when he got back. He was so fast that he fell apart, his eyes could not open anymore, and he said tiredly, "Jing Long took the liberty, let me change my clothes ..."
"You sleep!" Huang Yong hurriedly said, "This is the case that Dali Temple handed over to you, so let go."
Li Jinglong woke up completely and looked at the box. After a while, he didn't recover. Huang Yong said: "If you have anything, you will tell Lian Hao."
Lian Hao quickly said yes, and fled like Huang Yongfei.
Li Jinglong was shocked, and opened the box, which was full of files, and there were more than two hundred.
Everyone was tired after waking up that day. When Hong Jun came out to wash, he was still singing "Chunjiang Chaoshui even Haiping ..." Everyone still talked about the Qinglou Music Square last night.
"Go play again at night." Qiu Yongsi said.
Artest said: "I'm running out of money anyway, and the 3,222 silver I paid back last time hasn't been paid back to me."
"I have I have." Hong Jun said, "Let's buy the one that is made of cherries."
Morrigan said, "Okay! This shop ..."
"The case has been investigated." Li Jinglong's uncomfortable expression said, "Still playing? Disbanding is forgotten."
After lunch, Hong Jun looked at a pile of files on the table, and everyone was dumbfounded.
"We just found a cat." Morigen said, "As for?"
Li Jinglong threw a scroll alone and said, "This is a difficult case accumulated in Dali Temple. Sieve it all first, and then Minger will investigate separately."
"Is this all about monsters?" Hong Jun asked.
"Where are there so many monsters?" Qiu Yongsi smiled, "presumably because we were favored in front of His Majesty and the Concubine, and we threw all the brains of those who did not dare to offend.
Li Jinglong replied: "As long as it has nothing to do with the monsters, they will all approve" Cha Wuqi "and return to Dali Temple, regardless."
Hong Jun glanced at the scroll in his hand and said, "Does it matter that the Qin surname Lang Lang died at home in the middle of the night?"
Li Jinglong took it, looked at it, and threw it aside, saying, "The murdered person is not a monster."
Artest said: "At the beginning of November, the second squad of the four slings in the house missed the money ..."
Qiu Yongsi smiled and replied: "It was spent being stolen by the children at home."
"Pediatric night crows are more than suspicious of evil ..." Mo Rigen said with another file in his hand. "What should I do to find the surprise, what to do with the Exorcist?"
"The mule out of the city was frightened and ran away, suspected of seeing a monster ... billowing ..." Li Jinglong just wanted to take the ministry down to push Dali Temple down.
Hong Jun picked up the scroll of the dead man and said, "What will we do if we don't check?"
"That's the duty of Dali Temple." Li Jinglong replied, "If you go back, they must check."
Hong Jun said: "According to what you said, if Dali Temple can't offend the murderer, this case can't be investigated?"
"Then you have to sink," Qiu Yongsi replied.
Hong Jun picked up the dead man's case and put it aside. Li Jinglong sighed and said, "It's okay, it's also idle, you just go and investigate."
Hongjun picked up the scroll and went out.
Mo Rigen wanted to accompany him, but Hong Jun waved his hand to signal that he didn't have to. He changed his clothes and went out.
"Let's go and see." Li Jinglong fidgeted and stood up.
The rest of the people said in a hurry, just go and see Long History, you have to go and see Long History.
Li Jinglong: "..."
Li Jinglongfu sat down cross-legged again, holding his arms, and said seriously: "Three, I think we need to talk in detail. Do you have any misunderstanding about my special care for Hong Jun?"
Hongjun walked through several squares and came to the Guiyi Square. This is the residence of the poor in Chang'an. The courtyard walls were broken, and the houses were next to each other. There was still scattered sewage in the alleys. A single-family house yard was full of debris sold by sellers, and the inside was quiet. Hong Jun picked up the rattles scattered on the ground. "Dong Dong" made a few clicks. The voice of the young man said: "Take it if you like. Throw the money in the jar."
Hongjun pushed the door in and saw a poor family in Changan. The windows were covered with paper, and a pair of armor was thrown at the door. The armor was very familiar. It was what Li Jinglong had passed through.
A young man who didn't look much bigger than Hong Jun sat on the couch, wiped a sword in his hand, and looked up at Hong Jun with a sound, with a little confusion in his eyes.
"Exorcist Secretary." Hongjun showed his waist card and asked, "Who are you, the deceased salesman?"
Hong Jun was still investigating for the first time, and learned that the young boy was named Qin Wu, 19 years old, and happened to be a colleague with Li Jinglong.
Qin Wu put his sword aside and frowned, "Exorcism Division? Isn't it Li Xiaowei's mansion? What are you doing here?"
Hong Jun said in a daze: "Isn't the Qin surname Huo Langyu a nightstorm, a storm ... had an accident?"
"My father was murdered." Qin Wu stood up and stared at Hong Jun, saying, "It's none of your business, let's go."
Hong Jun sat down beside the couch and hesitated, "I will sit with you for a while."
Qin Wu said: "There is nothing to entertain you at home, is Li Xiaowei alright?"
Hong Jun replied well. Qin Wu sighed for a while, and Hong Jun asked again, "Who killed him?"
"Yang's family." Qin Wu said, "Yang Guozhong went to the Second Procurement Office, conspired with my stepmother, strangled him at night, there is no way, my family is too poor."
Hong Jun's heart was indeed the same as Qiu Yongsi's guess. The murderer Dali Temple did not dare to offend, so he pushed it to the Exorcist Division, which seemed to be in vain.
"What's the name?" Hong Jun couldn't bear it, and asked again, "Let's go to Dali Temple again."
Qin Wu did not answer, but looked at Hongjun, saying, "I saw you on the school ground outside Longwu Army that day. How is Li Xiaowei doing to you?"
Hong Jun had no idea why he turned to this unrelated topic. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Long history people are better."
"Huh." Qin Wu replied, "Treasure well so that he doesn't have to worry about me."
Hong Jun: "???
Hong Jun wanted to ask again, but Qin Wu stood up to give away the passengers. Hong Jun had to go back. Qin Wu was too calm. If Hong Jun himself could not do this.
It didn't take long for Qin Wu to send away Hongjun, but the door was pushed open again. He was about to retrieve his sword. When he looked back, it was Li Jinglong who stood up suddenly. The two faced each other silently in the dark room. At the end, Qin Wu said: "Li ... Li Xiaowei ..."
"When Hongjun got the case, I guessed it was your home." Li Jinglong sighed and sat down, asking, "What about your aunt?"
"Serve mourning." Qin Wu replied, "Forty-nine days, we will marry after the tail seven. Now we rent a house outside."
Li Jinglong sighed and said, "Yang family is powerful these years, you can only swallow it first."
Qin Wu didn't speak, Li Jinglong finally said: "My colleagues, I would like to persuade you, this case, I will be on my mind, but the time is not up."
"Yang's hands only cover the sky and dominate the world." Qin Wu said, "He bullied the city, seized the good land, beat the women and children. Encroaching on the Sixth Army and the border forces, when will I endure them?"
Li Jinglong said: "There are always a lot of wrongs in this person's life, but there will always be a day when it will be solved. Don't think about it. I will keep this case in mind, that's it."
After saying that, Li Jinglong got up and left, Qin Wu just stared at his back. When Li Jinglong went out, Qin Wu suddenly said: "Li Xiaowei, you are still the same as before."
"It's different." Li Jinglong said sideways, and left the Qin family.
The next day, a new case came again.
"Why are there so many?" Hong Jun didn't even finish reading yesterday, and everyone was convinced.
Li Jinglong said: "Lian Hao! You stop me!"
"There are murders today!"
Lian Hao put down another large stack of files and ran away. Everyone looked bored at the case and began to work shifts. In the morning, Artemorigen and Qiu Yongsi looked at the file. In the afternoon, they replaced Li Jinglong with Hongjun and the carp monster. .
"Qin Wu asked you." Hong Jun said that day when he checked the case.
"Say me what?" Li Jinglong casually said, glancing at Hong Jun from the file.
Hong Jun asked curiously: "Are you friends before?"
Li Jinglong replied: "It's true."
Hong Jun looked at his eyes, and Li Jinglong couldn't help but said: "When Xiao Wu entered the Longwu Army, he was about the same age as you."
Li Jinglong used to serve as a captain in the Longwu Army, and his martial arts were still admired by his subordinates. But in the second year of the army, there was an incident that happened to be related to Qin Wu.
"Betrayed." The carp demon buried his head and looked at the case.
Li Jinglong shouted, "Later in the Longwu Army, Qin Wu's family was too poor. He wanted to seize this opportunity. It was also because I was closer to my subordinates. I said something to my colleagues, and even my reputation in the army was compromised. "
"People who are almost 20 years old are not yet married." Liyu demon said, "Cheng Tian and young guys are flirtatious, it's hard to make people want to be crooked."
"You ..." Li Jinglong's heart almost choked, Hong Jun quickly gave him a back, and asked: "What reputation is damaged? Where is it damaged? How can I not understand?"
Li Jinglong stopped talking, but the carp demon couldn't stop looking at Li Jinglong and asked, "Is it true?"
"How could it be true?" Li Jinglong said, "I am innocent and not guilty of him!"
Although the soldiers were all teenagers, there were no shortage of handsome children in the Sixth Army. It is natural for young people who have never married to be close. But those who join the army should take martial arts first. Being a soldier is a responsibility. It is a crisis. It is to hold weapons and die for the country.
On normal days, the Dragon Martial Army is under the eyes of the emperor. Training, competitions, competitions, ranging from hunting with the emperor, to routine training in the first and fifteenth grades of each team Armored under the great sun, stood for four hours.
With such strength, return to the camp every day and fall asleep immediately. How can you do it? Once dragging the hind legs of the team, at midnight, he said he would have to be beaten by his colleagues. If rumours of broken sleeves are heard, it will surely drag the whole team and become the laughing stock of the whole army.
It happened that Qin Wu had been strictly trained by Li Jinglong, and his heart was somewhat unsettled. In addition, he wanted to be promoted to squeeze Li Jinglong down. It happened to be at the age of eighteen, so the brotherhood, marriage, and marriage were completely lost.
"What a hatred this is!" Hong Jun realized that what Qin Wu said today should be guilty. According to Li Jinglong, Qin Wu was later promoted. After hearing the rumors, Hu Sheng transferred him to another team. In the following days, Li Jinglong served as a soldier, and he was not indifferent to him. .
Li Jinglong replied: "It's my fault.
"Whee--?" The carp demon seemed to hear something. The whole fish suddenly became alert and looked at Li Jinglong.
While saying this, Li Jinglong couldn't help but look at Hong Jun again, but Hong Jun was still indignant about the matter. But with what Hongjun knows and hears, he would not think so much.
"Do you like Qin Wu?" Hong Jun asked again.
"I don't like it," Li Jinglong said simply, "because he was young, and ... and ... and ..."
Li Jinglong lowered his head and said to himself: "He is poor and poor, so he has taken care of him. You don't have to complain about me. I have already seen this. Now, when I get to the Exorcism Division, everyone is like a fish. Naturally I wo n’t worry about it anymore. "
Hong Jun thought for a while, and the final evaluation was: "Oh."
Li Jinglong pondered for a moment, and when he looked up at Hongjun again, Hongjun turned to the carp demon and said, "I thought only the male and female can be" that ", and the male and the male can also be" that "."
Carp demon: "..."
Li Jinglong: "..."
Carp demon: "But the male and the male" that "can't have a baby, so I don't" male "with the male."
"How do you fish" that "?" Hong Jun was very curious.
This became more and more embarrassing, Li Jinglong just wanted to find something to break off, and the carp demon said again: "Don't worry about this, you know what you do so much? But then again, I really like it. Ways, some love 'this', some love 'that', the world is all-encompassing, even if Li Changshi loves a man, there is no need for others to eat salty carrots and worry about them. Say, Hongjun? Do n’t you like that little fox too? "
"I don't like him!" Hong Jun said, "I just think he is pitiful."
Li Jinglong immediately picked up the scroll and threw it to Hong Jun, ending the topic and saying, "Look at it."
The fifth day of November in the twelfth year of Tianbao.
Exorcism case: caravan death (homicide).
Difficulty: herringbone level
Region: Pingheliang
Involved in the case: Twenty-two Guizi Caravans in the Western Regions
The case: On the fifth day of November, the Guizi Caravan passed through the Pingheliang branch of the Qinling branch, and was attacked in the afternoon. Twelve people in the team were killed.
Remuneration: Guizi businessman, Han Guolan, the permanent ambassador to Changan, thanked him for the interview.
"Look at it."
"It's too late, just tomorrow." Li Jinglong said.
The twilight was heavy, the autumn night was cold, and the three of Mo Rigen had also returned, and they all sat down to eat and began to exchange information.
"Where did you play again?" Li Jinglong asked if everyone could not eat.
"I met a wife murder case." Mo Rigen frowned and drank a glass of water, saying, "The blacksmith and his wife mixed their mouths, and used a chisel and an iron hammer to kill the man alive. The brain squirted. ... on the wall, on the couch ... "
"Don't say it!" Qiu Yongsi and Artest immediately stopped Morigen from repeating the process, which was finally forgotten.
Hong Jun is drinking a bowl of crab soup, without interference. Artie also said: "There is another case where a patient coughs with hot wind and sees the doctor. The doctor is a barefoot doctor who gave him blood and put the person to death. The doctor fled, the family members were carrying the coffin and were outside the Chunlin Hall Trouble. "
"Well." Li Jinglong was still thinking about the caravan attack, and asked, "What else is there?"
"From the beginning of the month to now, there are only a few murders." Artest said.
"From the beginning of November to now, there have been so many murders ?!" Li Jinglong asked to put down his chopsticks.
Mo Zhigen replied: "I don't know if Changan's past murders were frequent. Is this abnormal?"
Qiu Yongsi said: "Correct one point. These murders happened yesterday and today."
"Three times in two days, counted caravans, fourteen people died." Li Jinglong frowned, "So serious?"
Artest: "Don't forget, the demon king doesn't know where to hide."
Hong Jun: "Is this provocation?"
Li Jinglong took a deep breath, his eyebrows twisted again, without answering, indicating that everyone would go to bed first, and then go out to investigate the case tomorrow morning.
Late at night, Hong Jun squatted by the well to gargle, and the carp demon emerged from the pond and said, "Hong Jun."
Hongjun turned his head, raised his eyebrows, and said if he had something to say.
Carp demon: "Have you ever met someone who wants to spend a lifetime with them?"
"What do you mean?" Hong Jun rinsed his mouth and sat by the pond.
"Even if you want to be with her all your life, you don't want to jump on the Dragon Gate anymore. You will stay old until you die. On the day of her death, you want to follow her." The carp demon mouth said one by one.
"Yes." Hong Jun smiled.
"Who?" Asked the carp demon.
Hong Jun: "Dad, Qingxiong."
The carp demon said: "It doesn't mean that, forget it."
The carp demon wants to go back to sleep, but Hongjun grabs its tail and drags it out, asking: "What's going on? You tell me."
The carp demon said: "It is that you want to be with her from time to time. When she is by her side, she always feels that she can't say everything at ease and don't need to think about anything ..."
Hong Jun replied: "Li Changshi."
Carp demon: "Wow!"
Hong Jun replied: "Long history is always very reliable, and people are also very good, just give him everything, right? Zhao Zilong, what's wrong with you? I always feel weird today."
The carp demon said, "I'm in love with a koi carp."
"Ah?" Hong Jun asked. "What do you mean?"
"I want to start a family with her." The carp demon said, "Never be separated."
"Don't you want to jump the Dragon Gate?" Hong Jun wondered, "Don't jump?"
The carp demon rested on the poolside with one hand, holding two fish heads and spitting out two bubbles, saying, "That's just comforting me. When I live in this world, I have to have a thought, right? Even if this thought can never be reached ? "
Hong Jun scratched his head and asked, "What does love mean?"
"Ah, you don't understand." The carp demon sneaked into the water, looked up at Hong Jun from the bottom of the water, and stopped talking.
Hong Jun was about to pick it up and continue to ask, but there was a sudden rapid knock on the door outside. When the door opened, a sudden person rushed in and shivered: "Save me ... Save me ... School captain ... I'm sorry you ... save me ..."
"Qin Wu ?!" Hong Jun was shocked.
