Chapter 103: Thinking about it carefully, Xiaobaixiao is the test
Qin Shaobai smiled and asked the young novice to bring a piece of white paper and write a few lines on it.
When everyone saw it, they all exclaimed.
What's more, he ran to the back of the temple to observe the piece of land that Qin Shao was talking about.
Seeing everyone's attitude, the old man glanced at the paper with his peripheral vision.
I saw that the small regular script on the paper was neat and beautiful, and every word seemed to stand on top.
The old man's eyes suddenly turned cold, he raised his head and looked at Qin Shaobai again, and finally shook his head slightly.
"Old man, are you not satisfied with my method?"
Seeing the old man shaking his head, Qin Shaobai asked softly, "I wonder if the old man can give me some advice. I can also think of a better way."
"The land behind the temple is really a waste if it is left empty. If you think of letting someone contract that land, you can plant flowers, vegetables, or trees, and you can make the best use of the land. But there are conditions attached, will they be willing?"
Before he finished speaking, several people who had just gone to see the land had already rushed back and rushed to answer: "Yes, I am very willing."
"Old man, the land is left to others to manage. As long as it is managed properly, there will definitely be a harvest in the coming year. This harvest is not just a year or two, but a period of five years. And they only need to decorate the surroundings of the temple appropriately. Why not add some tables, chairs, stools, and provide some tea and snacks?"
"Yes, and you see Master Qin also said that this tea and snacks can be paid for, which is equivalent to opening another shop in a place for us. Only us Master Qin can think of such a good thing."
The crowd agreed.
"Master Qin, I, Brocade Village Zhao Yuan, have signed up to bid."
"Master Qin, Li Liuzi from my blacksmith shop also signed up to bid."
"Master Qin, add me as well."
…
For a time, many people stood up and looked at Qin Shaobai eagerly, waiting for Qin Shaobai to call their names.
"Okay, you are willing to contribute to the people of Nanyang County. You are all the best Nanyang people. However, I have to say up front that the bidding rules are still the same as before. You won't have any objections."
"Master Qin always does things fairly and impartially. We have no objection."
Agents from the yamen have already come over to register those who signed up one by one, and told them to come to the government to participate in the bidding tomorrow at midnight.
"Tendering?" The old man looked confused.
"You must not be from Nanyang County. Mr. Qin's bidding is the most fair selection method we think. Last time, I relied on this to invest in the lunch supply of Xiaolin Academy."
"Oh, that must be very interesting. If I have free time tomorrow, I will go to the county government office to see what this tender is all about."
"We really appreciate the fact that the old man is willing to give us advice. Mr. Song, Mr. Song, right?"
Qin Shaobai searched everywhere for Song Ci. After searching for a long time, he found him under a big tree.
Song Ci was squatting under the big tree, not knowing what he was looking at.
"Go and see what Mr. Song is doing?" The old man tilted his head behind him, and immediately a man in black came out and rushed towards Song Ci.
When the man in black walked past Qin Shaobai, Qin Shaobai felt a little dazed, as if he had seen him somewhere.
Before he had time to think about it, Qin Shaobai also smiled apologetically at the old man and ran towards Song Ci.
Song Ci held a small branch in his hand and was searching for something bit by bit.
Red color slowly appeared under the leaves he pulled away.
Song Ci picked a red leaf from a branch and put it under his nose. As soon as he smelled it, his face changed immediately: "Master Qin, please ask Capt. Xiao to lead people to surround this place. There may be a murder here."
As soon as they heard about the murder, the crowd became excited.
The bold ones had already rushed over, but the timid ones took a few steps back, and then were driven by curiosity to come forward.
When the old man saw this, he couldn't help but smile.
"You Nanyang County people are really weird. There is a murder case here, so shouldn't you stay away?"
The old man asked a young man next to him. The young man was very disgusted and glanced at him: "No matter how complicated the case in Nanyang County is, it cannot be difficult for our Lord Qin."
After thinking about it, the young man added: "Furthermore, please make a rule a long time ago. Anyone who appears at the crime scene is not allowed to leave immediately and must be questioned by the police."
The old man laughed. "Interesting, indeed interesting. Make me a cup of good tea, and I want to see how interesting this thing is."
Xiao Shan and several police officers brought the rope from the temple and quickly followed Song Ci's instructions to surround an area of about fifty square meters.
Several other detectives had divided into several groups and pulled the crowd aside for questioning.
Qin Shaobai had already stood up from Song Ci. His eyes were like burning eyes, staring at everyone gathered together.
"Master Qin, everyone is going to see if there are any dead people, but you stand here and look at the crowd?"
The old man stared at Qin Shaobai, looking incredulous.
"Well, I want to see who behaves differently than normal people at the scene. Generally speaking, if this is the first scene, the suspect will walk backwards and his expression will be different from ordinary people."
Qin Shaobai said, feeling that it was too embarrassing to speak such professional words to such an old man, so he laughed quickly.
"Old man, Shaobai and you feel like old friends at first sight. It's a pity that I don't have time to chat with you in detail today. I'd like to ask you to come to the county government office tomorrow. Shaobai will definitely prepare good tea and wait for you."
"Master Qin."
When he heard Song Ci calling him again, Qin Shaobai ran over without any time to say anything.
The onlookers have been driven ten meters away by the police, and now the view is very wide.
A bloody path has been cleared, dozens of meters away.
But at the end of the road, there is another big tree.
"Brother Xiao." Qin Shaobai pointed at the tree, "Go and see if there is anything under that tree?"
Xiao Shan understood immediately and ran to the tree, but shook his head.
He was about to climb up the tree to see if there were any clues on the tree, but he was stopped by Qin Shaobai:
"Brother Xiao, please use bamboo branches to pull out the leaves first and take a look. There should be no ambush."
Xiao Shan took a long bamboo branch, and Qin Shaobai really guessed that there was a huge blackbird's nest on the tree.
"Shaobai, did you see something?"
Song Ci walked over and looked at the crumbling honeycomb: "How did you know there might be an ambush?"
Qin Shaobai didn't say anything, and pulled Song Ci to the path, pointing at the blood-stained leaves.
"Master Song, take a good smell of the blood on the leaves again."
Song Ci was puzzled, but still listened to Qin Shaobai's words and put the leaf under his nose again.
"Master Song, the smell of this blood should be very familiar."
Qin Shaobai smiled, leaned close to Song Ci and said softly: "That day, you wanted to eat chicken at my house. Is this the taste of the chicken blood on Xiaolan's kitchen knife?"
"This, this seems to be the taste of chicken blood."
Song Ci sniffed it again and finally answered with certainty.
As soon as these words came out, everyone who was originally very nervous breathed a sigh of relief.
The onlookers also got up and dispersed slowly.
When everyone was almost gone, the old man slowly walked over.
"Master Qin, Master Song, how can you prove that this blood is chicken blood and not human blood?"
Song Ci was about to say something, but saw the old man's eyes staring at Qin Shaobai unblinkingly.
He took a step back knowingly and pushed Qin Shaobai out.
"Old man, I not only know that this is chicken blood, I also know that this chicken blood should be sprinkled here intentionally by your old man." Qin Shaobai smiled, "Of course, I think your purpose is to test it, old man.
Can I, the county magistrate, tell this?"
"Oh? Master Qin's words really make me confused. I would like to hear the details."
"Old man, although this is chicken blood, it still smells very strong and will attract mosquitoes, rats, and ants. I think we should go to the temple to talk?"
"Okay, come here, clean up this place. You must give Mr. Qin a clean and tidy path."
The three of them sat down. Song Ci wanted to stand up and say something several times, but was stopped by the old man's eyes.
Qin Shaobai laughed: "Actually, the reason why I can tell that the old gentleman is testing me is because everyone rushed to the scene just now to see, but you, old gentleman, were calm and composed, as if you knew what was going on.
Everything is normal."
The old man remained silent and smiled, gesturing for Qin Shaobai to continue speaking.
"I also saw that although there was a lot of blood, it was very regular. It didn't look like an accidental injury, but more like someone deliberately spilled the blood."
Seeing that the two of them were listening carefully, Qin Shaobai said again.
"I think the old man should have asked someone to sprinkle the chicken blood in the morning, so the smell of blood is no longer very strong. But, old man, you have forgotten that it takes several hours for chicken blood to solidify, but human blood is very
It solidifies easily.”
"Haha, I really didn't notice this." The old man could no longer sit still, stood up, and pointed to the tree at the end, "Master Qin, how did you know that there was an ambush in that tree?"
"That's what you told me, old man." Qin Shaobai smiled.
"When I asked Brother Xiao to climb the tree, old man, you looked at Brother Xiao, and there was a trace of sympathy in that look. Then you looked at me again, and that look was full of disappointment.
I thought at that time, old man, since you have set up such a situation for me, there is no way that I will not learn a lesson. There is nothing on this road that can teach me a lesson, so the only possibility is that big leafy tree.
There will be an ambush that will make me scream in agony."
The old man laughed and put his hands on Qin Shaobai's shoulders: "Master Qin, this time, I am convinced by Bi. I am convinced."
Qin Shaobai couldn't help being surprised and blurted out: "So old sir, you are General Bi Zaiyu. Oh my God, you are exactly the same as I imagined."
Song Ci, who was standing not far away, had no time to stop Qin Shaobai from showing off his idiotic powder, so he had to close his eyes.
Sure enough, I heard Bi Zaiyu let out an ouch.
Qin Shaobai had already opened his arms and hugged the surprised Bi Zaiyu.
