MTL - Capture the Jade-Chapter 55 Moon Moon Boy

Lin Chengyou: "Is this worth telling me?"

Jue Sheng wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was about to talk to Lin Chengyou in detail, when Jiantian and Jianxi broke in, and the two were unhappy: "Little Shizi, you can't come to Dongming when you have a case in Dali Temple. Look, you can't let the old Taoists stop for a few days."

When they saw the corpse in the room, the voice stopped abruptly. They looked at the corpse of Mrs. Rong Anbo in the back room, and said in amazement: "This-this?"

Lin Chengyou got up and said, "From the fifth day of March to the present, three pregnant women have been victimized. The junior feels that there are many uncertainties in this case, so he has to invite the two seniors."

Jiantian and Jianxi were shocked: "Three pregnant women were victims?"

There were people in the aisle outside. This time, it was Yan Sizhi and a group of yamen from Dali Temple. He Zuo re-examined the corpse and took the yamen to carry it out. Yan Sizhi stayed in the room to investigate carefully. Lin Chengyou Let Juesheng and Qizhi take the two Taoist priests to the wine shop next door, and question the people at the crime scene one by one.

Juesheng and Qizhi found a table in the next restaurant, and asked Teng Yuyi, the master and servant, and Jiantian Jianxi to sit down.

The people waiting in the restaurant called one after another to ask questions, and in less than a cup of tea, Teng Yuyi and the others were the only table left in the restaurant.

Teng Yuyi took a sip of wine to suppress his shock, and then looked up at Jiantian and Jianxi: "Two Venerables, stay safe."

Only then did Jian Tian and Jian Xi recognize that the yellow-faced boy was Teng Yuyi, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Wang Gongzi, why did you paint your face like this?"

Surprised by surprise, the two did not have the patience to listen to Teng Yuyi's explanation, after all, everyone's mind was on the conspiracy just now.

"The murderer is the person in the room? The prince caught him so quickly? Why is the prince in the room? What the **** is going on?"

Abstinence from saints and wisdom gave a rough overview of what happened today.

Seeing Tian was puzzled: "According to this, the prince caught the murderer named Zhuang Mu on the spot, but even so, he couldn't find the fetus?"

Teng Yuyi hummed: "The murderer also tore off a piece of the victim's skirt to wrap the fetus. That piece of fabric was always in the murderer's hands, but the fetus did not know where to go."

Seeing joy, he said: "How many months is this woman pregnant?"

Teng Yuyi recalled seeing Mrs. Rong Anbo on the second floor, and measured it as she did: "That woman's belly is probably this big."

Jiantian: "My belly is so big, and it's been six or seven months at least. In such a short period of time, where can the murderer hide such a big fetus?"

Teng Yuyi looked at the yamen who came and went outside the store, yes, with so many people looking for it together, it should have been found long ago.

There was a sudden cry from outside, and there seemed to be a lot of people coming to the spice shop next door.

Juesheng and Qizhi ran out to take a look, and came back and said, "The people from Rong Anbo's mansion are here."

Out of curiosity, Teng Yuyi also walked outside to take a look, and saw a lot of old women and Lang Jun came to the door of the spice shop, and when they came, they surrounded the corpse covered with white cloth and wept.

The yazuo and the yamen were unable to pass the crowd carrying the corpse of the prince's wife, so they were blocked at the entrance of the spice shop.

Among the crowd, a man in his thirties stood out. The man was undressed and green, with a handsome face. He was half-squatting in front of the corpse, his eyes full of grief.

Teng Yuyi thought to himself, this should be the prince Rong Anbo.

Guo heard someone comfort the man: "Prince, please mourn."

Prince Rong Anbo remained motionless, Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi sighed, the mother and son's two lives were gone, and it would be futile for others to say more comforting words.

After a while, Yan Sizhi came out of the store, separated the crowd, leaned over and said a few words to Prince Rong Anbo. Prince Rong Anbo finally responded, nodded dumbly, got up and followed Yan Sizhi into the spice shop. , As soon as he left, the group of servants also stepped aside.

When the door was scattered, Teng Yuyi had no choice but to go back to the store. Jue Sheng Qizhi pulled a few familiar yamen to inquire a few words, and came back and said, "The fetus has not been found yet."

Jianxi was surprised: "How is it possible?! With such a big month's fetus, how can you hide it if you say it is hidden."

Seeing the sky suddenly said: "I know, will the murderer put the fetus on the spot—"

His old face wrinkled, as if he felt a little disgusted, and suddenly he refused to go on.

Seeing Xi immediately understood what the senior brother wanted to say, and nodded with a stern face: "That's right, if you eat it on the spot, you will naturally be unable to find it. No, the old man has to remind the prince."

Teng Yuyi stopped him: "When Lin Chengyou brought Zhuang Mu over, Zhuang Mu was stuffed with a lot of cloth, presumably Lin Chengyou checked his mouth as soon as he caught him. Lin Chengyou will find out on the spot, there is no need to search around after the incident."

Jian Xi sighed: "That's right."

Teng Yuyi was taken aback for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "Have the two Taoist priests ever seen this kind of weirdness before?"

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I've seen it in the phantom records in the Guanli. This kind of thing is not too much, because for the fairies in the world, if they want to improve their skills, the effect of an unformed fetus is far less than that of a young man. Man. Rather than specifically looking for pregnant women, it’s better to hunt and kill young people who can be seen everywhere. For Yin Sha Gui Sha, this kind of thing is hard to say—”

"Oh, how do you say that?"

"The fetus has one foot in the sun, but the other is still in the underworld. Before seeing the sun, it can only rely on the umbilical cord to obtain nourishment from the mother's body. Whether it can be successfully reincarnated as a human being depends on the creation. They are raised in chaos, although their consciousness is a piece of Mingmeng, but had the obsession with rebirth as early as the moment he was born. If he was interrupted in the middle, resentment would arise spontaneously, and the fetus with a strong desire to surrender would even turn into a resentful spirit on the spot. ” has a collective name for such resentful infant spirits, called 'Yueshuo Tongjun', because they died tragically in their wombs because they were not enough months. already."

"Tongjun Yueshuo?" Teng Yuyi listened carefully.

"Yes." Jian Tian stroked his long beard, "Apart from Yueshuo Tongjun, these women who died in vain are also very troublesome. For women who are about to become mothers, even if it's just a meat child they haven't met, they will let them spontaneously She has a strong desire to protect her. Anyone who dares to hurt her child will kill her. Pindao doesn't know the details of these cases. If you see your child being stolen when you are about to die, you will know how deep the fear and resentment will be when you think about it."

Teng Yuyi's face suddenly became ugly: "I think they were taken while they were still alive."

The eyes of the four people on the table turned to each other: "How does Wang Gongzi know?"

"I heard what the prince said." Teng Yuyi calmed down.

She also met Juesheng and Jizhi today and learned that the female ghost who broke into her courtyard last night was the second victim. She remembered that the female ghost was full of "give it back to me" at that time, and she looked sad and unwilling. , most likely to find their lost fetus.

But if you say this, you have to say everything from the beginning to the end of last night, then Lin Chengyou is forced to come to exorcise the trouble, and then stay in Teng Mansion for most of the night.

She is candid, but after all, Grandpa was not in the mansion last night, Jiantian and Jianxi always love to talk, and it will be bad if there are any rumors.

Fortunately, Jianxi didn't think too much about it, but said in amazement: "If the murderer took the pregnancy before the pregnant woman died, the case would be complicated. In this case, the dead woman is full of obsessions, and it will soon melt. The ghost is looking for his fetus, but the fetus has already been lost, so how can he find it? The more he can't find it, the more resentment the female ghost has. As the so-called mother and son are connected, Yueshuo Tongjun feels the resentment of his mother, and his spiritual power will also increase. In order to strengthen, what will happen in the end, it is hard to say, no wonder the prince is eager to find us, he saw that things were very unusual, and asked Dongmingguan to help find the whereabouts of the three fetuses as soon as possible."

Juesheng and Qizhi couldn't sit still, thinking about helping their senior brother in the past, Lin Chengyou and Yan Sizhi came in when there were voices coming from outside the door.

Yan Sizhi said as he walked: "The customers from the dozen shops here have basically finished interrogation, and there are still about ten people placed in the ink studio on the opposite side—"

Seeing Tian and the others were just nervous, and they were about to ask if the fetus was found, but Lin Chengyou sat down on the opposite side with his robes up, took out two **** of things from his arms, and pushed one of them in front of Teng Yuyi: "Wang Gongzi smell this first. ."

It was a sandalwood-colored spice. Teng Yuyi took it in her hands in confusion, and frowned as soon as she smelled it.

Lin Chengyou stared at Teng Yuyi: "Do you smell it?"

"Tianshui Shiluo?" Teng Yuyi likes to study spices since she was a child. Although this kind of spices is not common, she played with these things as early as in Yangzhou.

Lin Chengyou: "Did you smell this aroma when you broke into the quiet room just now?"

Teng Yuyi smelled the spices carefully. She was very sensitive to smells. Although the room was filled with a strong smell of blood at that time, Tianshui Shiluo had a unique smell of spicy oil, which was easy for anyone who had been in contact with to distinguish it. As soon as she entered the quiet room I smelled it, but I didn't pay attention when I was nervous. Now that I've calmed down, it's easy to recall it.

She nodded: "Yes."

Yan Sizhi couldn't help but ask, "Can you be sure, Prince Wang? This is very important evidence."

Teng Yuyi's eyes turned bright and she turned to look at Yan Sizhi.

Lin Chengyou smiled: "She can't remember wrong."

Yan Si was stunned.

"Young Master Wang has a lot of research on spices and his memory is very good." Lin Chengyou picked up the piece of spice and played with it, "Since the Young Master has smelled it, this matter is easy to handle, change to someone who has never smelled this kind of spices, even if If you smell it, you won't pay attention, and the smoke of the spice will dissipate at the touch of a touch. It is difficult to find out after the incident. The murderer never imagined that someone would dare to break in at the scene. The testimony of the son, at least we know that the maid and the wife of the prince are two different drugs."

Jian Tian and Jian Xi hurriedly asked, "Sir, what is the difference between these two kinds of drugs?"

"One is the common incense 'Smell the wind', which can make people fall asleep instantly, and the other is the magical medicine 'Zui Lixiang' compounded by Tianshui Shiluo, which can numb a person's limbs and throat, and be fascinated The body can't move, the throat can't shout, but the consciousness is always awake."

Teng Yuyi felt a chill on her back: "Is the prince saying that Mrs. Rong Anbo was sober when he was killed?"

Lin Chengyou snorted, and his face became serious when he put down the spices.

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi were shocked: "Isn't that just watching myself get a caesarean section? Just now, the two priests talked about 'Yue Shuo Tong Jun', and the murderer deliberately used 'Zui Li Xiang' for Mrs. Rong Anbo Shizi. Could it be related to this?"

Lin Chengyou was surprised: "The two seniors have already mentioned Yueshuo Tongjun? Well, then I will make a long story short. The murderers used two kinds of spices, nothing more than to paralyze the government. There is no trace of 'Zui Lixiang'. , "Smell the wind down" is still lingering, as long as the servants wake up and describe it, it is easy to find out that this kind of incense has been used on the scene. When the two are combined, the government will logically think that Mrs. Shizi is also addicted to the same drug. Halo, but in fact, the murderer used 'Zui Lixiang' for Mrs. Rong Anbo's first son. As for why the murderer did this, it was to maximize the grievance of the victimized woman. I guess the murderer also used the same method in the first two cases. the same way.”

Teng Yuyi nodded in surprise: "No wonder when I went to check, the door of the quiet room was closed from the inside. I think the murderer was afraid that the fragrance from the aisle would drift into the room, so Mrs. Rong Anbo couldn't keep her head awake."

Lin Chengyou: "No, the murderer didn't close the door because he was afraid that the fragrance would drift into the corridor, because although the 'drunk incense' can only be ignited and used, 'smell the wind' can be used and thrown into the tea, Yan Sizhi and I have already checked , The edge of the tea cups that the servants drank all had traces of 'smell the wind', and in order to confuse the government, the murderer even deliberately smeared the cup of Mrs. Rong Anbo in the room."

"This, this—" Juesheng scratched his head, "the murderer thought too well. But brother, isn't the murderer afraid that others will come to the aisle when he commits the murder? Passers-by will inevitably be suspicious when they see these servants and women taking a nap. ."

Lin Chengyou: "It may be possible on weekdays, but not today. Every time this lady of the prince comes back to the spice shop to buy things, she will rest in the quiet room. During the rest period, the servants and maids are kept outside the door, and the shopkeepers are not allowed to disturb the past. Just now I I have asked these maids. Since Mrs. Shizi was pregnant, they are often called up at night to bring tea and water. Because they are too tired, when they walk around during the day, they will nap whenever they find a chance. I know, the murderer dared to do it in the spice shop, it means that he has already figured out the temperament of Mrs. Rong Anbo, and no one will come when he is sure to do it himself. In fact, if Xiaoyajian suddenly warned him, the prince would not have passed. Check it out."

Teng Yuyi paused: "Before I entered the house, I asked the maid outside what happened. The murderer should have heard my voice in the house..."

Jianxi was stunned: "Then why didn't the murderer escape in time?"

Lin Chengyou said: "Isn't it simple? He must have something very important to do at that time. Young Master Wang, think about it again, when you saw the murderer, where was he hiding in the house? Lying down, lying down, or lying on the ground? What do you have in your hand when you jump out of the window and escape?"

Teng Yu thought for a while: "The murderer seems to have been hiding under the window. When I found out that someone was in the room, he immediately got up and jumped out of the window. I only saw him wearing short brown, but I didn't see his face. When the murderer jumped out of the window to escape, he supported the window sill with his right arm, and his left arm was folded in front of his chest the whole time, as if he was holding something."

Lin Chengyou pondered: "But when I caught Zhuang Mu in the back alley of the spice shop, he didn't have anything in his hand... In such a short time, he neither had a chance to connect with his accomplice, nor could he put the fetus under my nose. After swallowing it, where did the fetus go?"

He looked at Teng Yuyi thoughtfully.

Teng Yuyi naturally knew what he wanted to ask, so she quickly put down the tea cup and said, "Because I didn't see the murderer's face, I couldn't guarantee that it was the same person, but in the quiet room just now, I took a closer look at Zhuang Mu several times. Over and over, I'm pretty sure the killer looks a lot like him, and they both wear tan."

Jiantian and Jianxi said, "It is rare for an adult man to be as short and thin as Zhuang Mu, and he wears the same clothes, so the chance of admitting his mistake should not be high. Besides, if this case has nothing to do with Zhuang Mu, he Why did it happen to appear where the incident happened?"

Yan Sizhi said: "The clothes can be changed, and it is not difficult to find people with similar body shapes—"

Teng Yuyi was stunned for a moment, she finally knew what she had missed.

Lin Chengyou's eyes moved slightly: "Did you remember something?"

"Although I only glanced at the murderer when he jumped out of the window, because the murderer's left arm was folded too high, the bottom of his left elbow was also exposed. It was dark in the room, but the sun was shining brightly outside. Immediately, I saw a big hole in his clothes, and the hole is about... as big." She measured in front of Lin Chengyou with her thumb and index finger.

Lin Chengyou was startled, then suddenly got up: "Yan Sizhi, let's go."

Yan Sizhi was quite excited: "Now we should be able to know whether the murderer is Zhuang Mu."

The people in the store had already been dismissed by Lin Chengyou, and as soon as the two left, there was only one table left with big eyes and small eyes.

Fortunately, Lin Chengyou and Yan Sizhi came back soon, and Jianxi hurriedly asked, "How is it?"

Lin Chengyou lifted his robe and sat down: "Zhuang Mu's clothes have no holes."

Teng Yuyi's ear exploded, which means—

"The murderer Wang Gongzi saw in the room was someone else."

Jian Tian and Jian Xi were shocked for a moment, and said quickly: "If the murderer is not Zhuang Mu, why is he wearing **** clothes? Where did you get so much blood temporarily?"

Lin Chengyou said: "When I saw Zhuang Mu in the alley, he didn't look right. He looked surprised when he looked at the skirt of Mrs. Rong Anbo's skirt in his hand. Now that I think about it, he should have been caught by someone. It was a secret plan, someone tried to lead him to the back alley, and used some method to lure him to make himself bloody. The place happened to be in the back alley where the accident happened. The time was too short. It is logical to think that he is the murderer."

Qizhi asked curiously, "Then why did the senior brother suspect that he was not the murderer?"

Lin Chengyou knocked on Qizhi's head: "You haven't practiced for a few days, and I see that you've become stupid again. The fact that you can't find the fetus at the scene is enough for senior to be suspicious. So many people can't find it, which means Zhuang Mu Either the fetus was handed over to someone else early in the morning, or the fetus was hidden somewhere else, whatever the reason, it means that he had a chance to escape from the alley at that time, but he stayed there waiting to be caught. I guess he It's just a culprit, the real murderer has long since fled with the fetus, and the testimony of the prince just proves my guess."

Jiantian and Jianxi slapped their thighs: "No, even if the frame is successful this time, as long as the murderer commits another crime, the government will still know that the real murderer is someone else. Only got three fetuses, maybe they will kill again."

Lin Chengyou looked at the tea cup in his hand, thought for a while, and said, "The murderer didn't just frame Zhuang Mu once."

Everyone was shocked.

"Don't forget, when the last victim, Shu Liniang, had an accident, Shu Liniang's neighbor had seen Zhuang Mu in Chun'an Lane. If we hadn't found this clue, we wouldn't have found Xi Shi in advance today, and happened to bump into Zhuang Mu' "Murder", all of this happened so coincidentally, as if someone had deliberately arranged it. I checked Zhuang Mu, his origin is unknown, and his hands may not be clean. The two plantings were done perfectly, even if he knew he was being plotted, he couldn't debate."

Teng Yuyi was taken aback: "Sir, when did the Tongzhou case happen?"

Lin Chengyou paused: "The fifth day of March."

"I remember, when I asked Cheng Bo to check Zhuang Mu, Cheng Bo's people found that Zhuang Mu was probably not in Chang'an for nearly a month. If this incident was also arranged in advance by the real murderer, it means that the murderer was in the first case. I planned to put the blame on Zhuang Mu."

Lin Chengyou's expression changed slightly.

After pondering for a while, he smiled and said, "It's very deliberate. When the first Bai family in the same state was killed, Zhuang Mu was not in Chang'an for some reason. When the case of Zhuang Shu Liniang happened, someone saw Zhuang Mu appearing in Chun'an Lane, which happened to lead us to the West Market. In the third case of Mrs. Rong Anbo's wife, Zhuang Mu was at the scene again. If it weren't for Wang Gongzi He happened to break into the quiet room, and the immortals couldn't clear his name. But what the truth is, we have to investigate further to find out."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and they were so shocked that they were speechless.

Teng Yuyi was stunned for a long time, and then said suspiciously, "But as far as I know, Zhuang Mu is just a scumbag. Why did the murderer plan to deal with him like this?"

Lin Chengyou turned to look at Teng Yuyi, and suddenly said, "Young Master Wang, take a step to speak."

Teng Yuyi vaguely guessed what Lin Chengyou was going to ask her, and was busy trying to figure out how to answer.

The two walked aside, Lin Chengyou looked back, making sure that no one could hear the two of them, and said, "I was about to ask you, why did you come to the West City to follow Zhuang Mu today?

Teng Yuyi said sternly: "Actually, when the accident happened in the afternoon, I wanted to tell the prince. I asked He Mingsheng where the silver silk came from that night in Caifeng Tower, and He Mingsheng said that it was a man named Zhuang Mu in the West City. Popi gave it to him, I want to know the origin of the silver wire, and I also want to get one for self-defense, so I went to the West Market today to follow Zhuang Mu."

Lin Chengyou listened patiently: "Is it for this?"

"Of course, the silver wire is light and thin. I have never seen a concealed weapon that is lighter than this. I asked Shao Zhuang Mu to follow him, just wanting to know where to get it. By the way, He Mingsheng's evil body The source of the technique is strange, since his silver thread was obtained from Zhuang Mu, maybe Zhuang Mu’s sorcery is the same, so the prince can check it out.”

Lin Chengyou smiled and nodded: "Okay, I know about it."

Teng Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief, but Lin Chengyou glanced at the guards in the Teng Mansion outside the store, and the conversation changed abruptly: "I counted it for you, you brought eight guards out of the mansion in addition to Duanfu today, what are you doing like this? The big battle, just to find a prankster to inquire about the origin of Yinsi?"

Teng Yuyi's heart skipped a beat: "That silver thread can kill people, but I don't know the details of this sloppy skin, so be careful?"

Lin Chengyou smiled: "You are so cautious, why did you go to the spice shop alone? You didn't bring a guard with you, so you almost lost your life, and you painted your face like this, are you afraid of being attacked by someone? recognize?"

Teng Yuyi whispered: "I saw an old friend in the spice shop, and I wanted to go over and confirm it temporarily. Shizi, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the case."

Lin Chengyou: "Okay, then I'll ask about the case. Last night, Shu Liniang went to you as soon as she turned into a ghost. You said it was Lu Zhaoan, but my subordinates reported that Lu Zhaoan was in the house last night. Don't you think it's a coincidence that the concocted Specter didn't go to the murderer and went to you instead?"

This incident just hit Teng Yuyi's heart, she simply turned the defense and asked with a smile: "So the prince is suspicious of me?"

Lin Chengyou said with a smile: "If you change someone to investigate the case, I have long suspected you. Don't forget, you are the first person at the scene of the murder of Mrs. Rong Anbo today."

Teng Yuyi snorted: "If the prince doubts me, you can start checking me."

Lin Chengyou thought, I have never suspected that you did harm, but Teng Yuyi, don't you think you have too many secrets?

He coughed: "Why did Zhe Xie and those Specter go to you, you know the reason yourself."

His voice was so low that only the two of them could hear him, and Teng Yuyi felt extremely guilty, but he smiled and said, "Of course I don't know, anyway, I have told the prince what I know, and the prince loves to believe it or not."

After talking, she turned around and left. In order to cooperate with the investigation, she took the initiative to tell him the whole story, only because she was afraid that the person who borrowed her life would be involved, and she concealed the borrowing and life.

It's almost a matter of telling everything, what else do you want from her?

She can't always say: I should have died a long time ago, only because someone uses sorcery to live by life.

After hearing this, Lin Chengyou might regard her as a monster. Just thinking about the scene where he forced her to return her life, she shuddered. If she were to use talismans and formations to deal with her, wouldn't she make her look like a monster. In addition to this, she was more worried about the person who borrowed her life with sorcery.

Lin Chengyou looked at Teng Yuyi's back from behind, and only asked a few questions, and she was so blown away.

But if he didn't question her properly, he wouldn't be able to pass his own test in the first place, and it was suspicious enough that Shu Liniang's ghost went to her.

Moreover, Zhuang Mu was stalked by her front foot, and Zhuang Mu had an accident on the back foot. Although she took the initiative to tell the relationship between Zhuang Mu and the silver thread, he vaguely felt that these things were not that simple.

I remember when he first dealt with Teng Yuyi, her hidden weapons were an eye-opener. A pampered noble girl seemed to be afraid of being killed at all times. The recent series of incidents made people even more interested in her. Curious about the secrets of the body.

Of course, he wasn't interested in her at all, but wasn't this already involved in two cases? I wanted to take the opportunity to let her tell the truth, but when I asked, I became angry.

He thought to himself, "Okay, you're hiding it from you, anyway, I'm just trying to find out the truth. As long as this case continues to be investigated, I'll always be able to figure out the reason.

One of them was guilty and the other was full of doubts. When they returned to the table, their expressions were a little strange.

Jue Sage and Abandoned Wisdom thought about it, Senior Brother and Madam Teng were still at the table, how did they just say a few words, and they became awkward again.
