Facing Qingru's anxious pursuit of knowledge, the old man shook his head violently and said coldly: "There will be no more, our villages and towns have always been like this, always safe and sound, just like an ancient well with no ripples! I am telling you this today.

I want to tell you that Qingbo’s death has nothing to do with our villages and towns, and it can’t be the work of people in the villages and towns!”

The old man looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "The people in the village are all old, weak, sick and disabled. Not to mention committing murders, many of them can't even work as farmers, and they have no motive!"

"You don't have to ask around. They are old and frail and have instinctive taboos against outsiders. You can't ask anything!"

Seeing his sudden change of conversation, Qingru became anxious and confused. Before she could speak, she was suddenly pulled away by Emperor Mingzhen beside her, so Qingru had no choice but to remain silent!

Ming Bao hugged the old man and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, old man. In this case, we will not disturb your rest anymore and leave first!"

"Yes!" The old man nodded slightly, and then said, "I see that you and that boy Dai Luo have quite a bit of friendship, so we will prepare a coffin for him when the time comes, so that he can be buried safely!"

Emperor Mingzhen and Qingru turned a deaf ear to what the old man said and turned away immediately!

The two of them were walking on the path outside the house, feeling a chill in their hearts as the cold wind invaded their bodies!

Mingzhen looked back at Qingru and said: "Qingru, since he mentioned that just now, I guess we won't be able to find out anything if we ask again!"

"Yeah!" Qingru was a little excited just now, but now it sounded like it was true.

Qingru sighed softly: "What you said makes sense. I think we don't need to ask around here anymore. Not to mention that they may not know the secret. Even if they know, I'm afraid they won't tell us the truth!"

"Not bad!" Emperor Mingzhen nodded and said, "Without further ado, let's go to Jingping County Government Office first to see if Brother Chen can find any clues!"

"good!"

Qingru and Emperor Mingzhen thought it over and rushed towards Jingping County without further delay!

When Chen Yuanyi heard that Qingru and his wife were coming, he immediately greeted them outside the county government office!

After a while, seeing Qingru and Emperor Mingzhen approaching, Chen Yuanyi smiled slightly and said, "Qingru, Brother Long, you have worked hard, have you gained anything from this trip?"

"Let's talk after we go in!"

When the three of them came to the room, Qingru told Chen Yuanyi the news they had found out in the villages and towns. Chen Yuanyi did the same, telling him all the things he learned in the county government!

However, today's investigation by the three soldiers in two directions did not seem to be progressing smoothly, and it could even be said to be fruitless!

Qingru fell into deep thought. After a while, Fang said: "The person who has the greatest relationship with this matter is Miss Qingyue. As a witness and a relative of the deceased, she has a certain urgency in solving the case!"

"Apart from Qingyue, the policeman Zhanfeng is also very strange!" Qingru held her chin with her pink fingers and said in a deep voice, "The Jingping County government office is far away from the villages and towns. How could it be such a coincidence that Zhanfeng happened to be here at this time?

He took the people there and happened to find Uncle Qing dead?"

Chen Yuanyi listened to Qingru's words, thought for a moment, and asked in a concentrated voice: "Qingru, according to what you said, do you doubt Qingyue and Zhanfeng?"

"It's not suspicion!" Qingru shook her head, with a look of embarrassment on her face, "I just think the two of them are a bit suspicious, and these things are weird and coincidental!"

Emperor Mingzhen sighed softly and said, "What you said, Qingru, makes sense. Brother Chen must also have doubts about Miss Qingyue, right?"

"good!"

"They are indeed very weird, but when you think about it carefully, it seems impossible!" Ming Zhen said attentively, "Zhan Feng is a catcher of Jingping County Government, and he is incomparable with Huailiu Ju, let alone

I’ve met Qingbo and Qingyue!”

"As for Qing Yue, she and Qing Bo depended on each other. They moved here and lived in peace for several years. How could it be possible?"

"Alas!" Even though Qingru was so smart, she still felt like her mind was in a blur.

"Besides these, I feel that the old man seems to have concealed some important information from us!" Qingru looked deep in thought, and after a moment, she said in a deep voice, "For example, Huailiu Residence, such a spacious house, in Qingyue, Qingbo Er

Who lived there before people inhabited it, and why was it abandoned?”

"Forget it!" Chen Yuanyi shook his head and said, "This matter is really weird. We have been busy all day, so we'd better have a good night's rest and investigate further tomorrow!"

"All right!"

Qingru and Emperor Mingzhen both wanted to solve the case quickly. For Qingru, it was extremely distressing for Dai Luo to suffer such hardships in the dungeon!

Emperor Mingzhen also felt extremely guilty towards Dai Luo. After all, if Emperor Mingzhen went to get the Purple Infant Sword, he would be the one who was wronged! Of course, in addition to this, the war on the northwest front was like fire and water.

There must be no delay!

All three of them are worried!

On the surface, this case is very ordinary. There seems to be nothing eye-catching or shocking. All the evidence seems to point to Dai Luo! But Qingru and others know very well that Dai Luo has neither a motive nor a crime.

As time goes by, there are secrets and murderous intentions hidden in the case!

Chen Yuanyi returned to the room, very tired, and soon fell asleep!

At this time, Emperor Mingzhen was thinking about what was happening on the front line, and he thought of Yue Zhenggang, Tan Ge and others. He couldn't help but be filled with emotion! He thought to himself, if the matter among the three of them had not been investigated clearly, he would reveal his identity as the emperor.

, to excuse Dai Luo!

Qingru was in the side room, with a soft bed and soft pillows under her body, but Dai Luo had only thatched hard boards at this moment. Thinking of this, he tossed and turned, still unable to fall asleep!

After a while, Qingru picked up a long sword for self-defense and started walking around in the yard!

Qingru was walking in the courtyard, with the fragrance of flowers and plants lingering in the air. There was a clear pool of water beside her, flowing by, making it look extremely quiet.

Qingru's ears suddenly heard the sound of a gust of wind blowing leaves and rustling. Qingru followed the sound and suddenly saw a black shadow rising from the ground around the corner not far away. It walked quickly and was gone in the blink of an eye.

Far!

Qingru's thoughts suddenly turned, and she suddenly raised her energy in her Dantian. Then she used a light step and flew up into the sky like a nightingale, disappearing into the vast night in the blink of an eye.

Qingru's self-lighting skills were not bad, but after some pursuit, she found that she had returned to the same place, and the man in black had long since disappeared!
