Chapter 77

The two chatted for a while, and then Ding Chongguang saw Ding Caiqin, who had changed into another set of clothes, returning to the yard.

"Cousin, have you sorted it out? Are we going to visit Qinghe City now?"

As a half-local, Ding Chongguang naturally wanted to take his relatives around.

"Okay, okay." Ding Caiqin had longed for this fairy city for a long time, so she naturally agreed happily.

The two of them went out together and saw a young man in a green shirt wandering at the door.

"Zigao, what trouble did you encounter?"

Ding Chongguang was slightly surprised. Gu Zhu was quite reserved and rarely came to see him on weekdays.

"Brother Chongguang..."

Gu Zhu did not expect that Ding Chongguang would be caught when he went out at this time, and when he saw the strange woman next to him, he felt incomprehensible.

He was brought up by Yunzhi since he was a child, and he has long regarded her as his biological sister and even his mother.

When he learned that his cousin had a crush on Ding Chongguang, he had an uncomfortable feeling, so even if he became a neighbor, he rarely communicated with the latter.

But aside from this point, he was quite satisfied with Ding Chongguang's personality and had long accepted that he was his brother-in-law.

I pay close attention to what's going on next door on weekdays, and I've never seen this "brother-in-law" bring a woman of his own age home.

Now that my cousin has gone away to study for three years and is about to return home, the other party has brought home such a beautiful girl of the same age?

This made Gu Zhu feel extremely ridiculous.

Ding Chongguang saw that his eyes were wrong and explained briefly: "Cousin, this is Yunzhi's younger brother, I told you.

This is my cousin, just call her Sister Caiqin, I am going to take her to visit Qinghe City, do you want a piece?"

Ding Chongguang really didn't have any other thoughts. He only wanted to cultivate it into a luck storage tank and maintain a good relationship with the Ding family in Xiaohe County.

"Oh, hello, Sister Caiqin."

When Gu Zhu heard that she was a cousin, he didn't think much about it. With his simplicity and the fact that the law prohibits incest marriages, especially incest marriages among monks, he would never have thought that there was such a thing as a distant cousin.

All he wants now is to help Mr. Huang find the murderer.

"Hello, Xiaozhu."

Ding Caiqin also smiled and said hello.

Well, she had indeed heard of Yunzhi's existence, and she had long since stopped thinking about the girlish thoughts caused by Ding Chongguang's appearance.

"Brother Chongguang, I came to you because of Mr. Huang's matter..."

He told Mr. Huang's death and what happened at the funeral in detail.

Ding Chongguang listened carefully and frowned slightly. He did not expect that Mr. Huang's death would be suspicious.

He instinctively felt that this matter was related to his desire to overthrow the great elder and reduce the luck of his subordinates.

This matter may be the key.

But...he has no reason to interfere in this matter.

In the past few years, he was able to survive in Nuodaxian City because he did not cause trouble and kept to himself in most cases.

Not to mention, he was not familiar with Mr. Huang, so how could he suddenly actively participate for Mr. Huang?

At least not now.

He then said: "Do you think there is something wrong with Mr. Huang's death? Do you have any evidence?"

Gu Zhu replied: "In addition to what Shi Hui said, there seems to be no problem with Mr. Huang's remains. However, in addition to the normal traces of falling injuries, we found a bit of wound healing ointment on his abdomen."

"The wound healing ointment is used to eliminate scars and speed up recovery. It is expensive. As far as we know, Mr. Huang was not discovered until an hour after his death, and no one gave him medicine."

Mr. Huang's family is not qualified to live in the fairy city, but the Ding family needs someone to teach them common knowledge, so they specially recruited him.

Mr. Huang has a lot of money in his sleeves, and his family does not have many spiritual stones. Once he dies, his family will no longer be able to use healing ointment.

Ding Chongguang nodded, and then politely declined: "This is indeed a doubtful point, but the matter is more complicated and I can't help you."

"That...excuse me."

Gu Zhu was slightly disappointed when he heard this and turned around to leave.

Even Ding Caiqin on the side couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this reply.

Seeing this, Ding Chongguang shook his head and said:

"There is something wrong with your thinking."

"First of all, if Mr. Huang's death was really caused by the high-level officials of the Ding family, under normal circumstances, there would be no need to hide it. For them, the death of a mortal is nothing. The worst they can do is compensate for one or two spiritual stones."

"Secondly, I have also met Mr. Huang. He is indeed dissatisfied with all the injustices in the world, but he has no problem with how he behaves."

"His only two flaws were that he was strict about drinking and teaching. Since he didn't die because of drinking, he must have died because of teaching problems."

"The problem is very likely to lie with you. This is not because I want to alienate you, but the truth may not be what you want."

There was only so much that Ding Chongguang could say, and it was up to Gu Zhu to decide how things would develop in the future.

Anyway, Gu Zhu has a relationship like his cousin, so no matter what he does, his life will not be in danger.

After Ding Chongguang finished speaking, he took Cai Qin and Qing Yue away together.

"this……"

Gu Zhu was not stupid. After such a mention, he quickly believed 70% of the idea and thought it was a good idea. However, after thinking about it for a while, he fell into distress again.

Mr. Huang does occasionally give people a thumbstick, but Gu Zhu is very good at school and entered the exam much faster than others. He has already started reviewing the content for the next level exam, so he studies at home. Even if he doesn’t understand, he can go to Huang’s house to ask for advice directly.

Rarely go to school.

He really doesn't know what's going on these days.

"How can something like this still happen in the city?"

Ding Caiqin was a little disappointed. She had just arrived in this longed-for fairy city and heard such things, which inevitably shattered her good expectations.

"There are a lot of things going on in this city. Children from a practicing family may disappear inexplicably."

Ding Chongguang said quietly, this city is not as beautiful as it appears.

He used his wisdom from his previous life to become famous in Heishi County, but when he arrived in this fairy city, he had to live with his tail.

After staying there for five years, I built a pig farm in the periphery, not because the water here is deep and needs to slowly accumulate and settle.

"Then cousin, why don't you help him? He seems to be bent on finding out the truth for his teacher..."

Ding Caiqin pursed her lips and said, she has a somewhat chivalrous heart and sees things that have to be done impartially.

"I will take action, but the matter is a bit complicated and it's not time yet."

After getting to know him for a while, he also had a rough idea of ​​his cousin's temperament, and he got to know her a little better.

"Oh oh."

Ding Caiqin nodded and stopped asking about this matter, listening intently to Ding Chongguang's introduction to every plant and tree in the fairy city.

On the other side, Gu Zhu came to the mourning hall again.

It was getting late, and most of the disciples in the mourning hall had left.

Only a few people stayed vigil here because Mr. Huang had no sons and no relatives in the city.

Kneeling in the center of the mourning hall was a pretty woman wearing mourning clothes, with a sad face and a mole in the corner of her eye.

"Is Shihui gone?"

Gu Zhu looked around and found that Ding Shihui was not there. He felt a little regretful and felt that there was no one with whom he could discuss.

The filial woman turned around to see him and said doubtfully:

"Xiao Zhuzi, why are you back?"

"Sister Zhen, I'm sorry, I didn't ask Brother Chongguang for help..."

Gu Zhu felt very guilty.

The person in front of him is Mr. Huang's only daughter, who is four years older than him and one year younger than her cousin. She is also like a mother to him.

"Well, you all have to take exams, so just concentrate on memorizing. Father certainly doesn't want you to do this."

Huang Zhen'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and tried her best to persuade them, not wanting the others to be in danger and delay their homework.

She was not present when several people discussed it at noon, and she found out later.
