Chapter 16 Chapter 16 The Truth

It was late at night. A lamp was lit in the study. The medicine has been decocted and applied on the wound, and the golden needle has been inserted into the acupuncture point once, Ding He still hasn't woken up, but his skin is not as pale as before. Hua Fang had already left the study, and Ding He led him to the guest room to rest. A pot of medicine was burning in the corridor outside the study, and two police officers were waiting beside it.The other six policemen are still staying in Xiaojiazhuang. They have searched all over the place, but they can't find Zi Zhu. No one in Fenghuang Town saw Zi Zhu, she seemed to have disappeared from the world, and no longer existed in the world.

Long Fei went out to search for it himself. Got nothing but disappointment. Sima Nu's body had also been moved to the corridor. For him, Hua Fang only glanced at him, let alone paid any attention to him. He doesn't understand life and death, flesh and bones, so he will never waste time on dead people. The fragrance of medicine blew into the study with the wind. Long Fei and Tie Hu were bathed in the fragrance of the medicine, and their demeanor looked a little tired, especially Tie Hu. They sat opposite each other on the bamboo couch. Ding He was still naked on the bamboo couch, this was Hua Fang's order.

When Long Fei came back, his clothes were completely wet and dripping water non-stop. As soon as he sat down, his eyes fell on the mole on Ding He's left shoulder. Under the light, the mole looked like a living black lizard, as if it would crawl out at any moment, and seemed to be devouring Ding He's muscles and soul. Tie Hu saw it in his eyes, he had long wanted to ask Long Fei, but never had the chance. Now is the chance. But his mouth opened, Long Fei waved his hand to stop him, and said: Brother Tie, I know what you want to ask me. Tiehu said: This is the best, unknown Long Fei interrupted again: If you are not tired of being burdened, you might as well listen to me repeat what happened in the past two days.

Tiehu said: It seems that what you said yesterday was not very detailed. Long Fei nodded and said: Time is a problem. Tiehu said: Is there enough time now? Long Fei said: After you have heard it, there are many things that you don't need to ask me. Tiehu said: I will pay attention and listen carefully. This time, Long Fei explained in detail that Zi Zhu's naked face had no influence on the whole matter. Tie Hu had never heard such a surprise, such a horror, such a complicated thing in his life. Although he had heard it once, he was still deeply attracted when he heard it again.

When Long Fei finished speaking, he didn't seem to know, he still looked at Long Fei in a daze. That's it.Long Fei ended with these words. Tie Hu just woke up like a dream, let out a sigh of relief, and repeated: That's it? Long Fei said: Yes. Tie Hu's eyes turned to Ding He's mole, and he said, "Is there such a mole on Xiao Yulang's back?" Long Feidao: The location, shape, and size are all exactly the same. Tie Hu muttered: Is it really the fault of the lizard? Long Fei sighed! He sighed a little helplessly, and seemed to have other deep meanings. Tie Hu could hear it unexpectedly, and said: "Brother Long, if you have something to say, just say it."

Long Fei said: Although this matter is so complicated and surprising, but if you think about it carefully, it is not completely clueless. Tie Hu said: I've thought carefully enough, but now it's still like a pile of weeds. Long Fei said: It's because you have also entered the game and were confused by things. Tie Hu smiled wryly and said: Are you an outsider? On the contrary, Long Fei said: Do you know where I went just now? Tie Hu said: I was about to ask you, it wasn't raining too much outside, why are you like a drowned rat. Long Fei said: Because I sat in the stream with my clothes on, and I have been soaked for half an hour.

Tie Hu was stunned and said: There is something wrong with your head, right? Long Fei said: It's because of something wrong that I'm submerged in the water. Tiehu was stunned again. Long Fei said: You have it too. Tiehu said: Don't joke. Long Fei said: I was immersed in cold water for half an hour before my head was fully awake. Tiehu finally understood. Long Fei continued: Then I carefully analyzed the whole matter and boldly made several assumptions. Tiehu said: "Go on." Long Fei said slowly: "The first assumption is that that weird person met me on the way was not accidental, but intentional!"

What is the purpose? My curiosity was aroused, and I followed it. Here comes the problem. Do you mean that wooden statue can speak? Exactly. At first, I suspected that the coffin had two layers, and someone was hiding in the bottom layer of the coffin and talking, but after thinking about it carefully, it didn't look like it. In fact, the coffin is not double-heavy. I have carefully checked it at Yizhuang. You told me. So how can you explain that the wooden statue can talk? Have you ever heard of something called ventriloquism? D? That is to say, the stomach speaks. I've heard of this, and I've seen a person who can speak ventriloquism.

The speech of the wooden statue is actually the ventriloquist of the strange man, which is why it is so weird, and it does not sound like a human voice. Makes sense. As a result, I chased it down. I think it's mainly because the wooden statue has the same appearance as Miss Ding. Long Fei didn't deny it, nodded and said: This is the main purpose of that wooden statue. It was not a coincidence, but that carriage was waiting for you in Fenglin on purpose? good. But how did that weirdo know that you must pass through that place at that time? This time, I came to Fenghuang Town to visit my uncle and discuss my marriage with Zi Zhu. Before I came, I wrote a letter and asked someone to send it here first.

to whom? Purple Zhu. What was written in the letter? When will I be there. Could it be that the letter was the problem? Zi Zhu did not receive that letter. You suspect that the letter fell into the weirdo's Long Fei said decisively: So he knew that I would pass through that maple forest that day. Tie Hu said: But do you think he intentionally lured you to the backyard of Xiaojiazhuang? no doubt. How do you see it? I chased wildly all the way, but I couldn't catch up, but I was able to keep a certain distance. oh? At that time, my horse was very tired, and it was getting slower and slower, but the car slowed down accordingly.

Perhaps the two horses in the trailer were also very tired. In my opinion, it is very easy to leave me behind. Perhaps the weirdo thought he had left you behind. So how to explain the constant distance? Things in the world are just so coincidental sometimes. Long Fei sighed. Tie Hu continued with a smile: That strange person may really intend to lure you to Xiaojiazhuang, but why? Let me see all the strange things that happened in the small building.Long Fei pondered and said: Although it is night, my actions are undoubtedly still under his surveillance. This means that his eyes and ears are very sensitive. His martial arts are by no means inferior to mine, otherwise he wouldn't be able to force me off the carriage and knock off my flying ring with the whip. Makes sense, makes sense. That's why, as soon as I stepped into that manor, strange things happened at the right time. The Appearance of Water Moon Avalokitesvara But after three meows, those three meows were extremely terrifying. Cat meowing is scary, especially in the quiet night The three meows I suspect are man-made. Isn't there a black cat in the small building? The meow of the big black cat was obviously not so loud and shrill. Tie Hu smiled and said: Your suspicion is younger than mine? Long Fei continued in a deep voice: The meowing is actually a code. signal? The Water Moon Avalokitesvara came out. The sound of a cat meowing is a signal, but the sound of a piano is not it? yes! What is the password again? It hinted that my uncle came from the tunnel. oh? Long Fei sighed: That's why my uncle appeared in the small building shortly after the sound of the piano stopped. Tie Hu said: You must be your uncle, that man in blue? Long Fei sighed and nodded. Tie Hu's eyes flashed, and he said: "So Long Feidao: The relationship between my uncle and Bai Xianjun is obvious, obviously He said two obvious things in a row, but still couldn't go on. Tie Hu understood Long Fei's mood, and said: You don't have to say some things directly. Long Fei nodded and continued: That was undoubtedly a long time ago. Tiehu said: At least Bai Xianjun has been dead for three years. Long Fei said: "My uncle didn't know about it all the time, that's why he said that he wanted to kill me." Tiehu snorted. Long Fei said: Then that Bai Xianjun screamed, and white smoke filled the building. Tiehu said: Based on your speculation, what happened in it! Long Fei said: While the Bai Xianjun was screaming, he pulled out a sharp weapon and stabbed at my uncle, cutting off one of his fingers. He fled back from the tunnel in panic. Iron Tiger Road: Ding He's martial arts Long Fei said: Although he has great martial arts skills, no matter what, he would never have imagined that Bai Xianjun would stab him with a weapon without making a sound! Tie Hu said: But he should ask the truth. Long Fei said: At that time the third party had already appeared. Tiehu said: You said that you heard the laughter of a third party. Long Fei said: "It doesn't matter who it is, of course my uncle will leave in a hurry. Tie Hu nodded and said: After all, being a thief has a guilty conscience. Long Fei felt a pain in his heart.Tie Hu continued: After the white smoke dissipated, those people and the wooden screen disappeared, I believe they also used that tunnel. Long Fei's eyes flashed, but he didn't make a sound. At this moment, he seemed to have discovered something again. Tie Hu turned around and asked: Of course that Bai Xianjun is Xiao Yulang's disguise? Long Fei said: Yes. Why do you think he disguised himself like his mother? It might not have been his idea. oh? In my opinion, he can't even help himself. Iron Tiger is even more strange. Long Fei's voice was even deeper, and he said: Tianzhu has a martial arts mental method called Mind-pulsing Technique. Tie Hu said: I've heard of it, why, don't you also Long Fei said: I suspect that Xiao Yulang has been affected by the mind-stimulating technique, and his mind is completely controlled by that strange person, and everything he does is actually the idea of ​​that strange person. Tiehu pondered for a while, then said: Then his death Long Fei said: Since his mind is controlled by that strange person, it makes no difference whether he commits suicide or is killed. why does that weirdo want to What do you do with things that have no use value?Send us an inquiry?Long Fei paused and said: Although Xiao Yulang's mind was completely controlled, he still had memories before he was controlled. Tiehu nodded and said: Kill him, and then use Erlengzi to send it back, thanks to him thinking of it. Long Fei said: This matter is even more weird because of this. Tie Hu said: Then the lizard crawled out of Xiao Yulang's mouth and appeared in the mouth of Bai Xianjun's wooden statue, all these are also man-made? Long Fei said: "It's all the same." Tie Hu said: But who do you think this is?Sima Nu? Long Fei said: Sima Nu is just a puppet. Tie Hu smiled and said, "It seems like someone like Sima Nu Long Fei said: I think he was also restrained by the mind-stimulating technique. heartbroken slope He was normal then. You mean after he came here should be. What is he doing here for no reason? Find me. why? Take the opportunity to give me a knife!Long Fei frowned and said: When he left Broken Heart Slope, I think he was already unwilling to give up. Then simply cooperate, why bother! What that weirdo did this time was not for me. Besides, people like Sima Nu don’t know how to cooperate with others. From my guess, he must have been chasing after me, accidentally discovering some secret of that weirdo. , but the weirdo found out and took it, and then used it again. Was it really him who killed Xiao Ruoyu? The smell of sandalwood is a good proof. Tiehu nodded and was speechless. Long Fei continued: We chased the strange man in red who cut Xiao Ruoyu to the small building, but we disappeared. On the surface, we smashed the window at the opposite door and fled through the window. In fact, we sneaked into the tunnel and shot at him. Broken windows are just distracting us.He still had something to say: At that time, I had carefully checked the area outside the window, and it was obvious that there was no trace of people walking by. Tie Hu said: Actually, Sima Nu has already been placed in the tunnel. Long Fei nodded and said: After that weirdo went in, he ordered Sima Nu to break into the study over there through the tunnel, beheaded my uncle, and called my uncle to kill him! Tie Hu said: Ding He was cut off with a knife, and he woke up from the drunkenness, so he stabbed him with his sword! Long Fei said: Sima is angry at people like an idiot, so naturally he can't avoid that sword. Tie Hu said: Isn't that strange man afraid that Sima Nu will be taken down by Ding He? Long Fei said: He has already considered this aspect. Tie Hu sneered and said: Ding He's drunkenness is also being captured? Long Fei said: Mind-stimulating technique is not effective for everyone, like my master uncle, it may not be effective for him. Tie Hu said: But is it possible to know that Ding He is drunk? not necessarily. oh? If he knew that my uncle was drunk like that, he would definitely not let Sima Nu do that. Why? If Sima Nu hacked my martial uncle to death with a knife, and we heard the news and rushed to take Sima Nu down, wouldn't all previous efforts be in vain? But Do you know why my uncle is known as "Sword Seduce Soul"? Could it be that if he doesn't move his sword, he will definitely kill someone? Not bad at all. in this way Just like Sima Nu broke in suddenly, swung his knife and slashed, even if he was not drunk, but in a normal state, unless there was something wrong with his head, he would definitely draw his sword to meet him! Is there something wrong with his head? No. I don't have either, so if you switch me, you will also meet them. If Sima Nu was really restrained by the mind-stimulating technique, he would not be able to dodge at all. If you change your mind, he will also be crushed to death with an iron chain. In other words, no matter what happened to Ding He, Sima Nu was doomed. That strange man was sure that Sima Nu must die, so he dared to make this move. If it is really as you said, this person can be said to be sophisticated. Long Fei said slowly: "My uncle has retired to Fenghuang Town and has not associated with people in the Jianghu for more than ten years. Tie Hu pondered and said: You mean that if that strange person is not Ding He's old friend, he must also be Ding He's old enemy? Long Fei said: Of course a friend would not do this, why would an enemy pretend to be a ghost? Tie Hu said: That strange person must be the common enemy of Ding He and Xiao Li, and I ask myself if he is not their opponent Long Fei interrupted and said, "Since it's a scheming plan, how could it not be known that the two of them have no contact with each other, so they can be defeated individually?" He smiled lightly, and continued: Friends may not always have grudges, and friends are often enemies. Tiehu murmured: What are you trying to sell! Long Fei suddenly sighed, and said: Nothing happens without a motive. Tiehu said: What is the motive for this matter? Long Fei said: I am revenge for the hatred of taking my wife! Tie Hu was startled and said: Oh?Who takes whose wife? Long Fei said: In this matter, although many people appeared, there are only three people who have that kind of relationship. Tiehu was shocked, and said, "Aren't you saying As soon as Long Fei's gaze fell, he landed on the lizard-shaped black mole on Ding He's back, and said, "The black mole on my uncle's back is exactly the same in position, shape, and size as the one on Xiao Yulang's back. Let go." I may not talk about the lizard causing trouble, but how do you think it is possible for this phenomenon to happen? Tie Hu was stunned again, and answered after a while: Inherited? His expression became very weird, Long Fei was even weirder than him, and said in a hoarse voice: Yes, it's hereditary. Tie Hu stammered and said: Don't you suspect that Ding He and Xiao Yulang are father and son? Long Fei said slowly: I am so skeptical. Tie Hu said: Then the relationship between Ding He and Bai Xianjun is not Long Fei sighed: You have been so skeptical for a long time! Tie Hu stroked his beard and murmured: "The tunnel connects that small building with this study. It is indeed very convenient to go there and there without anyone noticing it." Long Fei said: How can paper cover fire? Tie Hu said: Xiao Li is not an old fool after all. He paused and continued: Didn't you just say that he told you that it was because Ding He and Bai Xianjun did something wrong to him that he distanced himself from Ding He. Long Feidao: At that time I was still a little skeptical, but after seeing this mole He sighed heavily and lowered his head. Tie Hu said: Xiao Li and Ding He went through life and death, so of course they don't know that there is such a mole on Ding He's back. certainly. Since Xiao Yulang is his son, of course he will not ignore Xiao Yulang's naked body. There are many times when children are naked, especially boys. Of course, he would not doubt that Xiao Yulang was born to He and Bai Xianjun, not his own son. certainly! Tie Hu said with a pale face: You mean, that person is either someone else or Xiao Li? Long Fei took a deep breath and said: I really doubt it. Tie Hu froze there. The whole study immediately fell into silence. Unspeakable silence. Chilling silence. The night wind blows through the window. Tie Hu shuddered violently, and said in a deep voice: Xiao Li must still not be sure, all the strange things in Xiaolou are because he intends to prove whether Ding He has an affair with Bai Xianjun. Long Feidao: Maybe it's one of the reasons. Tie Hu said: Lord Baixian has been dead for three years, people cannot be resurrected after death, so he can only use Xiao Yulang to disguise as Lord Baixian? Long Fei said: Yes. Tiehu said: Then he lures you to come Long Fei said: But he used me as a witness to prove that my uncle was the murderer of his two sons. Tie Hu said: You already suspect that the murderer is Ding He. Long Fei nodded, and said: In fact, my uncle is the most suspicious. Tie Hu pondered and said: Killing Ding He's son, through the mouth of Ding He's son-in-law, proved Ding He's crime, and even took away Ding He's daughter. If it is true, this revenge is too harsh. Long Fei sighed and said: "My beloved wife is unfaithful, my best friend is unrighteous, isn't that the case, how can he get rid of the great hatred in his heart?" Tie Hu frowned and said: Here comes the problem again. Long Fei said: Could it be that Xiao Yulang is not his son? No wonder he made such a murderous move, but Xiao Ruoyu Tie Hu said: Isn't it his son? Long Fei said: Xiao Ruoyu believed it, but he was an idiot. Tiehu said: So what about idiots? Long Fei said: It's half dead. From an idiot's point of view, there is no such thing as life and death. Everything is the same. From a normal person's point of view, life is worse than death. As a parent, this feeling is even stronger. Tigers don't eat poison! In my opinion!Xiao Li also had the heart to kill Xiao Ruoyu, but his well-thought-out plan seemed to fall short because of this, forcing him to bear the pain of killing Xiao Ruoyu. Could it be that Xiao Ruoyu saw that the strange man was Xiao Li in Yizhuang? Maybe he saw Xiao Li pretending to be a ghost at home, no matter what, if he said that kind of words, he must have seen something, and knew that the strange man was his father. One thing I don't know if you have noticed. When Xiao Ruoyu was killed, did Xiao Li go to that old Mr. Hua Fang? Exactly. Just now I have asked the old gentleman, he has actually lived in seclusion in a village not far to the east of the outskirts of Fenghuang Town. sweaty. Do you think that after killing someone, he sneaked into the tunnel and ordered Sima Nu to kill him in the study, on the one hand to set the blame, and on the other hand to distract our attention, before rushing to the eastern suburbs to find Hua Fang back? Long Fei nodded. Tie Hu suddenly sized Long Fei up and down several times! Long Fei didn't speak until Tie Hu's eyes stopped moving, "I know what you're thinking." Tiehu said: Oh? Long Fei said: Is there something wrong with Long Fei's head? Tiehu laughed loudly and said: Is it really? Long Fei pinched his forehead and said: No. Tie Hu said: Why do you have such a terrible idea. Long Fei said: The fact itself is very scary. Tie Hu stroked his beard and said, "Looks like I have to go to that stream to take a dip." Long Fei smiled!His smile is very bitter! Tie Hu let out a long breath, and said: Your hypothesis is indeed very bold! Long Fei said: Isn't it your golden rule to make bold assumptions and carefully verify? Tie Hu nodded again and again, and said: Fortunately, you didn't do my job. Long Fei said: Why? Tie Hu laughed and said: Otherwise, there is still room for me to gain a foothold! Long Fei didn't expect Tie Hu to be interested in telling such jokes at this time, so he couldn't help being startled! Tie Hu then asked: How many assumptions did you make in total? Long Fei said: Is this also a problem? Tie Hu shook his head, and replied solemnly: I have to admit that the assumptions you made are all reasonable. Long Fei sighed, "Unfortunately, they are all hypotheses, and there is no evidence." Tie Hu said: This is indeed a pity. Long Feidao: So at present, you still prefer to believe in the explanation that the black lizard is causing trouble. Tiehu said: Is there enough evidence for this explanation? Long Feidao: We have seen at least two living black lizards so far. Tie Hu was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Xiao Liren seems to be very forthright, known as an upright chivalrous man, not a cunning one." Long Fei said: It really doesn't look like it. Tie Hu said: But the so-called know people, face, but not heart. Long Fei said: So you still have some doubts about him. Tie Hu said: Before the truth came to light, I had some doubts about anyone! Long Fei smiled and said nothing. Tie Hu frowned, and said again: With Xiao Li's upright temperament, there seems to be no reason to think of such a trick. Long Fei said: "Xiao Li's temperament seems to be good, he is very upright, but he is definitely not as brainless as you said! Tiehu said: Where can I see it? Long Fei said: Three shots from his deadly shot! Tie Hu said: Have you fought against him? Long Fei shook his head and said: "Did you forget that Xiao Ruoyu and I once fought against each other in Yizhuang?" Tie Hu suddenly said: Yes. Long Fei said: Xiao Ruoyu's martial arts is obtained from Xiao Li's true biography, and what he used at that time was undoubtedly the trick in the three killing shots. Tiehu said: It should be. Long Fei said: Xiao Li is really as upright as you said, how could he come up with such a weird spear technique. Not bad!Tiehu nodded repeatedly. Long Fei sighed and said: "If things are really as I assumed, then this person's flexibility of thinking is undoubtedly beyond the reach of ordinary people. I'm afraid it will not be easy for us to find evidence of his crime." But Tie Hu laughed loudly and said: "The Skynet is well-established, sparse but not leaky." Long Fei said: That's what it says. Tie Hu said: Based on my experience and your intelligence, if things are true to your assumptions, sooner or later we will find evidence! Long Fei said: "What's the use of bringing him to justice at that time?" Tiehu said: It is not Long Feidao: Maybe after he fully achieved his goal, he would automatically tell us the truth. Tiehu said: Oh Long Fei said: You have been arresting heads for so many years, don't you understand the psychology of criminals? Tiehu said: Generally speaking, after the goal is achieved, the metropolis will be so happy that they are even afraid that others will not know it. Long Fei said: The success of solving a crime does not lie in solving the case and arresting the person, but in preventing it from happening. Tie Hu smiled wryly and said: This incident started, but there are no signs. Long Fei said: So from the very beginning, we have already failed halfway. Tie Hu said: This is helpless. Long Fei said: Because none of us have a pair of heavenly eyes! Tie Hu sighed slightly: So I am used to this kind of failure. Tie Hu also let out a small sigh, and said: Now we all know that this matter is still not over, it is still going on, and we all know that another person is facing death, but some of them don't know whether it can be stopped in time. Tiehu said: You mean Zizhu. Long Fei nodded silently, his worry was evident in his expression! Tie Hu said: From your point of view, is she still alive now? Long Fei said: I hope so. Tie Hu said: You have been immersed in the stream for so long, have you ever thought of where she might be hidden? The worried look on Long Fei's face became more serious, and he said: "I'm still at a loss as to what to do now." Tie Hu suddenly let out a haha, and said: "Auspicious people have their own aura, Xiaolong, you don't have to worry too much." Long Fei smiled lightly and stood up slowly. Tie Hu asked anxiously: Where are you going again? Long Fei said: Go for a walk outside the courtyard. Tie Hu said: It's good to relax. He immediately stood up and said: I also have to go outside to teach my subordinate Erlang to be careful about Xiao Li's actions. Long Fei didn't object and walked out. The night was darker, and there was still some time before dawn. In the long night, how to stay until the dawn?
