Chapter 766 Discovery

"Do you know who among the people who are currently staying in the Jiancha Envoy Department knows where Li Jiancha has gone?" Song Qingshu asked immediately.

"Master Guard, how do we know this? But you can go to the Guangzhou Police Headquarters not far away and ask. Many police officers have been transferred there. Even if the general officer in charge of the police in the Guangzhou Police Headquarters is not there, there will always be officials who know that they have been transferred.

Where did the police officers go?" Menzi said, fearing not to go into details.

"Thank you." Song Qingshu immediately understood that Menzi's words were right. After thanking him, he hurriedly mounted his horse and rushed to the police headquarters.

After a while he came to the police headquarters, found the official who stayed in the Yamen to assist the judge, asked where the incident happened, and then rode there on horseback. The official was worried that he had gone a long way, so he arranged for someone to come

Lead him there.

After a while, Song Qingshu left Guangzhou City and came to the 'Haipi' outside Zhenhai Gate. 'Haipi' is the name Guangzhou people call the Pearl River. At this time, the 'Haipi' was still a pure natural river beach. Every year

Summer floods will rush up to the river and submerge low-lying streets. Historically, there were news of flooded streets until the early 1990s. This was after the causeway was built. Now the shores of Haipi are full of parked boats.

People. The environment here is complex, and the gap between locals and Dan households is deep. The Guangzhou government offices have basically no management here. Even after the subordinate officials were abolished, the police were established, and some Dan people were specially recruited, there was not much change. It is just that they have to start paying.

It's just taxes.

After entering Haipi, Song Qingshu saw from a distance countless people wearing dark blue police uniforms surrounding a house about one foot high and covering an area of ​​about one-tenth of an acre. The house was close to the Pearl River, and the roof

There seemed to be some fish and shrimps drying in the sun. Although they were still far away, Song Qingshu could clearly see that they all held sticks in their hands and lined up around the house. Even if he couldn't see their faces clearly, he could feel it.

They were all very nervous.

Soon their horses had arrived in front of the police formation. Although the man serving as Song Qingshu's guide was wearing a police uniform, the guards were still a little nervous. One of them, who seemed to be the leader, shouted loudly: "

Who is coming!"

Song Qingshu and the guide stopped in front of the police formation and got off their horses. The guide walked over and whispered something to the police leader, took out his ID and pointed at Song Qingshu. The leader immediately moved out of the way to let Song Qingshu pass.

Song Qingshu looked back at the guide, who said: "Sir Song, the younger ones will be sent here. The younger ones won't be able to get in any further."

"Thank you very much." Song Qingshu said, and took out a silver coin worth more than one tael from his body and said, "It was very hard for you to come here with me. I will use this little money to drink tea to quench my thirst."

"Oh, Mr. Song, it is my duty to send you here. How can I ask for your money?" the guide said. But his eyes kept drifting towards the silver thorn.

"Just take it if I tell you to take it." Song Qingshu put the silver lock into his hand.

"In that case, let's take the little one. Can you use the little one to report to the palace?" the guide said, holding the silver lock tightly in his hand.

"No need." Song Qingshu said. He planned to return to the city to report to Yunxi after he understood the matter in detail.

The guide bowed, turned around, mounted his horse and left.

Song Qingshu walked inside and immediately saw an official he knew. He hurriedly approached and said, "Qian Tongpan!"

The man named Qian Tongpan was talking to the people around him. When he heard the voice, he immediately turned around and was stunned when he saw Song Qingshu. Then he reacted and said: "It turns out to be Guard Song. But His Majesty asked you to come.

How about the harvesting and cutting case?"

"That's true. Your Majesty asked me to come over early in the morning to ask if there was any clues. When I arrived at the gate of the Yamen of the Procuratorate, I heard that there was a clue. I hurriedly went to the Police Headquarters to ask about the location and rushed over."

Song Qingshu approached, and after bowing to Qian Tongpan, he said.

Before Qian Tongpan could answer, Song Qingshu's eyes were attracted by a table nearby. He walked over and looked carefully at the things on the table: wooden seals engraved with talismans, red and black ropes, and various paper figures.

, Zhu Shu Fu Ming, and eleven or twelve gourds of various sizes, tied with a red-headed rope and wrapped in five-color velvet.

"Do you know what the guards of Song Dynasty are doing with these things?" The voice of the judge named Qian Minglin sounded: "I have sent people to find Taoist priests in the city who know how to exorcise ghosts to identify these things, but they have not come yet.

"

"These eleven or twelve gourds are all used to harvest living souls. It can be seen from the placement of the plugs at the mouth of the gourds that they have already contained living souls. These Zhushu Fuming, are all...these

People are not only cutting and making animals, they are also gathering raw materials." Song Qingshu introduced while trying to hold back his anger.

Qian Minglin was startled and said: "In addition to cutting, they are also harvesting souls!"

Song Qingshu turned his eyes in another direction at this time. About two or three feet away from the table, there were four or five corpses lined up in a row, all of which were children's corpses. Although the one closest to him was covered in sand,

But one can still see the horrific conditions of being killed: the facial features, nose, mouth, lips, ears, and eyes were all cut off or gouged out, the fingers and toes were also chopped off, the chest and abdomen were cut open, and they were filled with mud.

Sha, I don’t know what organ was cut off.

Song Qingshu took one look and couldn't bear to look at it again. Although he had heard about how to treat raw materials before, this was the first time he saw it with his own eyes. "It's actually like this, it's like this." He murmured.

After a while, he came back to his senses, straightened his clothes, and said to Qian Minglin: "Qian Tongpan, how did you find out that they were harvesting and cutting crops here?"

"Song Wei. This person discovered this and reported it to the Police Headquarters." Qian Minglin pointed to the person next to him and said.

Song Qingshu looked over and saw a man wearing dark blue police uniform standing aside. The man had dark skin, the joints of his hands were thick and covered with calluses, and there was a vague fishy smell on his body. He saw Song Qingshu looking over.

He immediately bowed and said: "Little Feng Delin has met the guard."

"No need to be polite." Song Qingshu said, "Feng Delin, how did you discover them?"

"My lord guard, I am a policeman here at the pier. I usually live near here."

"Since more than ten days ago, I noticed something was wrong with this fish and shrimp shop: there were too many strangers coming in and out, and they were moving the goods too diligently."

"Master Guard, although we are here as a gangster, we have an accurate estimate of how much fish and shrimp we can sell and buy on weekdays. The sales will not suddenly increase several times, and so many strangers will suddenly appear and come here every day."

It’s normal; besides, the fishy smell on their goods is not strong, it’s not like they are all fish and shrimp.”

"Although this was a bit strange at first, I didn't take it too seriously. It's not easy to manage here on the riverside. We are exhausted every day and don't have the energy to care about unnecessary things."

"But when news came yesterday that someone was doing things like cutting raw meat, the boy immediately thought of this fish and shrimp shop. He tossed and turned on the bed until dawn, when several familiar policemen came.

I asked Xiao Xiao to go on duty, and Xiao Xiao decided to take these acquaintances to the fish and shrimp shop to have a look. Xiao Xiao was still thinking that if he guessed wrong, he would apologize to them, as he had been neighbors for several years.

I won’t be blamed for this.”

"But as soon as I walked into their store and saw the young neighbor, I felt something was wrong: he looked too panicked. Even if we police officers came, he wouldn't be so panicked. No one would take away his rotten fish and shrimps."

"The younger one immediately captured him, tied him up, and removed his chin. Then the younger one asked a few people to guard the front and back doors, and led the rest of the people in. It was just dawn, and most of the people in the room were

They were still sleeping, so the younger one and a few brothers caught them easily."

"While searching, I saw a young woman and two girls. I quickly inquired and learned that they were abducted by kidnappers. A little boy was abducted on the same day."

"The younger one saw that the soil in the house next door seemed a little loose, so he asked his brothers to dig the soil, and they dug out the body of the child furthest to the north."

"I immediately sent someone to call for someone from the police station here at the pier. Soon Mr. Wei Tuiguan, who is in charge of the pier police station, came with his people. Since then, I have been here searching for bodies, and I don't know anything else."

Feng Delin said.

"You are very good." After hearing this, Song Qingshu calmed down and said: "If you can keep what I mentioned above in mind and take the initiative to search for suspicious people, I will definitely inform your majesty about this matter and will not let you

The credit for the work has been omitted.”

"Thank you, Lord Guard, for your kindness." Feng Delin immediately knelt down happily and said.

"Where is the person caught?" Song Qingshu turned around and asked Qian Minglin.

"They were all knocked unconscious, handcuffed, leg-cuffed, and mouth-cuffed, and they were standing aside. A total of nine people were arrested, and dozens of police officers were watching."

"Be sure not to let any of them die."

"I know. If such a person is not killed by a thousand cuts, it will not be enough to atone for his sin."

Then Qian Minglin said something to Song Qingshu. He turned around and asked Feng Delin: "While you are guarding here, there is also a beggar here named Mei who sent someone to talk to you and asked you

Kill and silence?"

Feng Delin said: "It is indeed true, but I would never dare to accept his request." He added, "I know the seriousness of it, what kind of case is this? Don't say that such a thing cannot be hidden at all, it's just

If you can keep it a secret, even the youngest ones don’t dare to accept his request. A big scandal like the harvesting and harvesting of raw materials, if you get ridiculed in it, even if the Yamen doesn’t see it, God won’t let it go.”

"Very good." Song Qingshu praised again and said to Qian Minglin: "Have you sent someone to catch that beggar like Mei?"
