Those years when I hunted demons in Dali Temple

Chapter 404 Three people become eight tigers

Editor Zhou was startled, "A certain is an official ordered by the imperial court, how could a certain's confession be faked."

Baihui ignored him, and only said to Chen Yizhi, "I'm begging you to be handsome."

Chen Yizhi nodded, "Zhou Caiguan, just tell me how you saw Baishan that night."

With the foreshadowing of the previous people, the process of recalling the editor Zhou took a little longer. He only heard him talking intermittently, "A certain person was also near this alley that night, walking around the street to collect news. After a day’s work, I was too tired at night, so I stopped thinking about writing, and made a painting, and when there was a need, I would write the story in the painting and hand it over to the superior.”

Editor Zhou smiled wryly as he said, "It was just a whim at the time, and I never thought it would be an ironclad proof of Baishan's murder."

Chen Yizhi glanced at Baihui before asking him, "You drew the scene where Baishan picks up the bloody scissors."

Editor Zhou nodded, "Walking in the capital for a day, the people in the city were panic-stricken during those days, and it was inconvenient to ask the common people about anything. Fortunately, I gained a little, but after a day, I was exhausted physically and mentally, and my brain was not as bright as in the daytime. , Seeing that bloody scene, a certain person didn't react, and wanted to catch that person, instead, he took his time and drew the scene at that time."

He apologized and said to Baihui, "I haven't had time to turn things into poems and hand them in, but within a day, people from Dali Temple came to the door. They asked about the situation that night, and I took out the picture when I thought of it. "

"I remember that the people in the yamen also brought out the portrait, and it happened to match up with the Baishan on a certain painting. They shouted happily that it was this person who took away the certain painting."

"Later, I heard that bad people found Baishan in Changanfang."

Chen Yizhi was puzzled, "Chang'anfang, that's a slum in the capital. Mr. Bai Lao's family has permanent property. Why does Bai Shan live in a slum?"

Baihui lowered his head guiltily, "The old man was young and vigorous, relying on his skills, he went around looking for others to learn from. At that time, it was a burden to have family members by his side, so at such an age, he is still alone. .”

"However, after so many years of walking in the rivers and lakes, I always meet one or two people I like, and I have a romantic relationship with them. Occasionally, I will go to the building to look for them if I need them. One of them seems to see that the old man is capable. Then I heard her say she was pregnant, the old man's first reaction was that it was ridiculous, there are so many benevolent guests in the little lady in the building, how could the old man have any reason to raise a son for someone else."

"Farewell so far, the mountains are high and the water is far away."

"When I returned to the capital again, the old man met her again. She had redeemed herself and was doing laundry for others. When she saw me, she seemed to have seen a ghost. But after a while, she seemed to have confirmed it. What, suddenly rushed over, holding the old man and crying."

"At that time, I thought she wanted to rely on the old man, and was about to shake off when she cried, 'Why did you leave for so many years, the concubine was really pregnant with you at the time, and she was worthless in the building, so she got a chance to redeem herself , the sky is big and the earth is big, I can only wait here one day, you can turn your prodigal son back, but it has been 18 years, 18 years, the child is taller than the concubine.'”

"The old man's heart, which has been wandering for many years, suddenly settled down. At that moment, he was absolutely sure that the child belonged to the old man. But—" Baihui said with tears, "but her next sentence will make the old man into hell."

"She said that my son Baishan had already been sentenced to death at three o'clock in the noon that day." Baihui was a little disappointed, "This old man has never been defeated in the rivers and lakes in his life, and his legs were tied like a thousand pieces of gold that day." Pinch, no matter how you run, you are always slow, and you don’t even have time to avenge him, father and son just know each other, and he told this old man before he died."

Only then did everyone understand why Baihui had such great determination.

The only son is gone, but still recognize him in that way, a normal person would go crazy.

Chen Yizhi continued, "Because of your disregard, Baishan has been in Chang'anfang since he was a child, and mixed with those refugees who flocked to the capital. Because of his family background, he was often ridiculed by others, and he also did a lot of stealing. When there were seven witnesses at different times and locations in the case, the former minister of Dali Temple sentenced Baishan to death on the grounds that he killed the court official."

Baihui was already unable to answer.

Qi Yao was about to open his mouth to ridicule, when he suddenly thought of Xiao Lian who had been in the past for six years, his face turned green and then pale, and suddenly fell silent.

Chen Yizhi changed the subject and asked, "Officer Zhou Cai, I don't understand something."

Zhou Bian's scalp was a little tight, "Excuse me, bad guy."

Chen Yizhi asked him, "You said you drew the scene of him pulling out the scissors, right?"

Editor Zhou carefully tasted the words, then nodded, "That's true."

Chen Yizhi asked him again, "When did you arrive, before you saw him kill someone, or after? Or just saw him pull out the scissors?"

There was fine sweat on Zhou Bian's forehead, and he also tasted a bit of the smell, "Just when he was pulling out the scissors."

Baihui glared, "You said you saw him murder with your own eyes."

Editor Zhou swallowed, "At that time, anyone would think he was a murderer."

Chen Yizhi nodded, "Since that's the case, Baishan just pulled out the scissors. You didn't see him committing a crime." He raised his left hand, signaling that he didn't need to say anything more, "Since there are seven witnesses, six of them are unacceptable. , and Zhou Caiguan’s evidence is not ironclad. Then the evidence from that year will not be usable.”

He looked around, paused under Mrs. Xie's adoring gaze, and then shifted to other people, "I have reason to believe that Baishan was wronged back then, and the real culprit was among us." , Yu Ren and Miss Wu were killed by the real murderer—”

"Who is it?" Everyone present asked in unison.

---

"Siqing, this is the place those people said." Xu Liu stood on the boat, pointing excitedly at a vast white river, "I have asked many times around the capital in the past few days, only the one in the south of the city Jihe complies."

Wang Xuanzhi looked in the direction he pointed, "Wu Si, what do you think?"

Wu Si also nodded, "That's right, it's here."

Wang Xuanzhi frowned lightly, "Daoyi, do you think there is any problem on this river? It always makes people feel a little uneasy when they can't see the way ahead."

"You speculate that the murderer is among them, so it's normal to be worried. But there is a barbarian, he is skilled, and he should be able to protect others." Daoyi is also looking at Jihe, "The one who helped Baishan to redress his grievances , is a strange person."

When Xu Liu heard this, he immediately thought of a lot of things, "Master Xiaoyi means that this white mist was made by that person?"

Dao smiled, "Even if it's not in the middle, it's not far away."
