His hands were clasped in the soil, and the direction was towards the back door of the villa.
Lin Mengya stood behind the corpse and looked forward in the direction where the corpse fell.
It is not difficult to see that the person suspected to be Mr. Zeng was still trying hard to climb to the back door of the villa at the last moment of his life.
It's a pity that he never had the chance to climb over.
"This is what we found around the body. They seem to be things used by children."
Du Canjun's men are also very agile.
They know how to protect the scene as soon as possible and collect things nearby that may be related to it.
Lin Mengya looked at the things they collected on the other side...??.
"These should be things used by newborn babies."
A small hat with a tiger head that could barely be seen, and a flattened cradle.
These things are usually congratulatory gifts sent by relatives and friends at home when a child is born.
I heard from Aunt Fang that this is the practice of the ancient tribe.
Wealthy families may decorate things used by children with jewelry and jade.
For example, when little Fubao was born, Aunt Fang gave her a hat of a little koi carp. The koi carp's eyes were made of black pearls.
Although this little tiger-head hat is dirty and deformed, you can still see the embroidery stitches on it, which are fine and neat.
It is not difficult to see that a lot of effort was put into the selection.
"Preliminary judgment is that he was trampled by someone before his death and his leg bones were broken. As for the cause of death-"
"The cause of death was probably caused by being hit through the back of the head with a blunt object."
The first time Lin Mengya looked at the corpse, she saw the big hole behind the skull.
So he crawled over hard, probably because he wanted to ask for help.
But he didn't expect that the short journey at the end would become the other side that he could never reach again.
According to the records on the slips, it is assumed that something might have happened to Gong Xiangrong and Jiang Hui when the last diary entry was written.
So after the accident happened to Mr. Zeng, who often delivered supplies to the couple, did they notice it, or were they kept in the dark?
So what happened after Mr. Zeng was murdered?
Lin Mengya glanced at Fengming Villa in front of her.
At this time, the surroundings were covered by dusk.
The once glorious Fengming Villa is now nothing more than a large abandoned courtyard that is little better than a ruin.
But how many secrets are hidden inside? I'm afraid no one knows the full story except those old people who have long since turned into corpses.
After working hard for a while, Lin Mengya collected Mr. Zeng's bones with her own hands.
And that The small items that were not delivered in the end were also sent to the woman's boudoir.
That night.
Everyone has been tired for a day. Fortunately, although the yard looks dilapidated, the frame of the house is still strong, at least it will not be sleeping in the wilderness.
The small room where Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu were located was far away from the main house.
She stood at the window, and she didn't know whether her gaze was falling on the moon in the sky or on the main house.
In short, when Long Tianyu came in with a bowl of hot soup, what he saw was his wife's thoughtful profile.
"Come and use something quickly. You've been tired for the whole day. Go to bed early later."
Lin Mengya was greeted by him, sat on the camp bed, and picked up the bowl of hot soup.
"It tastes so fresh. There are a lot of mushrooms in it?"
"Your taste is better than that of a hunting dog."
Long Tianyu gently scratched her little nose.
"The people in charge of cooking saw these mushrooms growing on the rotten wood around them. You taught them how to tell whether they are poisonous or not. They have tried it, and it is not poisonous."
Of course Lin Mengya knew it was not poisonous.
This mushroom has tender meat and delicious taste. It is considered a local product of the ancient people.
Moreover, it is rare even among ancient tribes, and cannot be cultivated artificially at all, making it extremely rare.
"Then we are really lucky. By the way, why do you think the backyard of the General's Mansion looks so similar to Fengming Villa?"
Lin Mengya was discussing this issue with Long Tianyu in a low voice while drinking the delicious wild mushroom soup.
Long Tianyu thought for a while and then said, "I remember that the General's Mansion had been repaired before, but for some reason, my father-in-law had to renovate it."
"It aroused criticism from many people at the time, but my father-in-law's repairs did not exceed the limit, so in the end no one objected."
Lin Mengya also thought of something.
When she was a child, she once found some architectural drawings among the relics left by her mother.
She didn't quite understand it at the time, but now that she thinks about it, it probably has something to do with it.
"So, although the descendants of the Gong family are not familiar with the head of the family, Gong Xiangrong, the drawings of Fengming Villa have been passed down?"
Long Tianyu nodded.
What he wants to say more is, I'm afraid it's more than that.
From the moment the lady came in, she was very familiar with the terrain.
When they were looking for clues before, Madam gave them a lot of pointers.
For example, where will there be hidden clues, where may the hidden clues be hidden?
Wearing something.
When everyone went to look for them one by one, they all responded.
It was as if his mother-in-law had made arrangements many years ago and was waiting for her daughter to discover these secrets.
Seriously, very weird!
At the same time, about ten miles outside Fengming Villa, the security guard in charge spotted a group of people approaching quickly.
He climbed up the branch nimbly, and after confirming the number of people, he quickly released a black bird the size of a thumb.
The bird was so fast that it disappeared into the night almost in the blink of an eye.
Soon, the news was delivered to Long Tianyu layer by layer at an extremely fast speed.
"Someone is coming. There are nine people in total, all with weapons. The target should be here."
Lin Mengya also immediately became energetic, "How far is it?"
"There are still five miles left. Our people are ready and can intercept them at any time."
Although the number of people they brought this time was not too many, if Du Canjun's manpower was added, it would be enough to deal with nine people.
What's more, there are also masters like Long Tianyu, Huo Xiao, and Du Canjun here.
Coupled with the poison she carries with her, it can be said to be foolproof.
"No need to stop them, just let them in. I want to see what their purpose is here."
In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are just paper tigers.
Lin Mengya took Long Tianyu to find an excellent viewing spot.
This is the highest point of the entire villa.
"In the past, when I was wronged, I would go find trouble for the mother and daughter. Every time they wanted to deal with me, I would lie here and watch them wander around like headless flies."
The two of them were lying on the roof. Although Long Tianyu had brought clean sheets to spread under them in advance, he still couldn't bear the pain of his wife.
But Lin Mengya didn't think so. She even missed him a little and whispered to him about her childhood.
"Then were you caught by them in the end?"
"Of course not! The General's Mansion is not the one-spoken house of the mother and daughter. Although I couldn't compete with them most of the time, there were many people who helped me quietly, and I rarely went hungry!"
Long Tianyu looked at the bright pride in her eyes, but his heart softened.
Such a little girl is so stupid and stupid that she just stays in the house in a dull manner all day long.
Maybe she was bullied so hard that she would fight back a little.
Then he hid quietly on the roof, watching the people below and thinking about his father and brother who were far away at the border.
Perhaps, there is also the mother who is already under the Nine Springs. >
Would she cry at that time?
I only regretted that I couldn't wipe away her tears at that time, leaving her to endure so many years of loneliness and pain alone.
He quietly squeezed his wife's hand.
From now on, wherever she is, I will be there.
She would never feel so lonely and sad again.
The conversation between the two didn't last long before they saw a faintly moving shadow outside.
The next moment, the night turned silent again.
A group of nine people each rode a horse.
They don't seem to be very familiar with the environment here.
In addition, it was midnight, so even though they were holding torches, they had to go around in circles to find the entrance of Fengming Villa.
"Is this here?"
"It should be, the map says it's near here."
"Then let's go down and look for it."
Because they thought there was no one around, they didn't deliberately suppress their voices.
But very few people can understand what these people say.
Lin Mengya was one of them, Long Tianyu could barely understand it, but the Huo family and his son were also proficient in it.
The last one is Du Canjun.
They were not together at this time, so they didn't know each other's situation.
At this time, they had only one idea - foreign language!
They had learned this language from their own sources, and it was one of the dialects of the "Shangjing", what they call the realm outside the territory.
There is also Mandarin in the Outer Territories, and most of the pronunciations and meanings are similar to those in Weiguo.
The previous Lord Bai, Song Xianrou and others spoke Mandarin.
Basically, we can communicate with people from the ancient tribe without any barriers.
But Shangjing is vast.
Every place has its own dialect and unique characteristics.
It is almost impossible to learn all the dialects.
But coincidentally, these nine people spoke a dialect that was widely spoken.
The reason why Lin Mengya could understand it was because she had some medicine.
Coincidentally, the language library has already unlocked languages with pronunciation similar to this dialect.
Long Tianyu himself was puzzled.
When did he learn this language?
As for the other three, it is because of training since childhood.
At this moment, they had no time to think about anything else, but they unanimously determined one thing.
These nine people came from outside the territory!
The nine people were not aware of their every move, and they had already fallen under the surveillance of others.
