The duke of the governor's family is leaving again

Chapter 128

The villagers were used to seeing government servants in the past two days, so they didn't pay much attention to the two men in soap clothes, leading a horse and a donkey.

Chen Yuan walked over slowly, listening to the exaggerated and frightened discussions of the villagers.

"When I got up last night, I saw a black shadow drifting past my window, and it scared me to death!"

"I saw it too. There is more than one black shadow. It looks like there are several black shadows. It must be that Sanpao's family has come. They died wronged and wandered around the village!"

"I don't know when the case will be solved. If the murderer is not caught, the whole family of San Pao will be unable to rest in peace. Will this soul cause trouble in the village?"

"According to the time of death estimated by the author, tonight is the first seven. The whole family of Sanpao will go home. Tonight, everyone will close the door of their house and watch their children. If something happens, no one will be able to come. "

"The village chief suggested asking the Taoist chief to come to the village to save San Pao's family. Have you donated any money?"

"Yes, yes, my family is not rich, so I donated [-] copper coins for peace."

After listening to it for a while and analyzing it briefly, Chen Yuan knew that the villagers were purely scaring her, and there was no value in continuing to listen.

The adobe house next to the drying yard is a bit dilapidated, and the inside looks a little cold. Someone has already moved the tables and chairs to the dam where the sun is better.

Liu Yanchun helped Chen Yuan lead the donkey away.

Chen Yuan walked to the table and took out a charcoal pen and paper.

Some people had met Chen Yuan two days ago, knew her identity, and also understood the process of her collecting the body of Sanpao's family, no one dared to question her ability.

Seeing her, the faces of everyone were not very good, and they lost the interest to continue the discussion.

"Chen Yuzuo, the corpses have been collected and checked, what are you doing in our village again?"

"That's right, is there another murder case in our village?"

"How did the village head do things? He said that someone from the county government came to ask questions, but why didn't he say that Chen Yuzuo was here?"

"I know it's her coming, so I won't come."

"Isn't the question asked by the yamen servant? How can she be asked alone? Is there no one available in the county yamen?"

This sentence was so heartbreaking that it made the government servants who followed the crowd to maintain law and order feel ashamed.

In the workplace, in the face of intentional or unintentional sowing and discord by others, it is best to explain the subtleties.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Everyone, stay safe and don't be impatient. I visited Xiyuan Village again today, of course to solve the case as soon as possible. It is the job of all the yamen servants to inquire about the case. As a gangster, how can I overstep it."

This made the servants feel at ease, but the villagers still had endless questions, "Then why are you here?"

"I'm here to paint a portrait."

"Oh, no wonder the village chief asked me if I've seen the sheep dealer. It turned out that he wanted to draw his portrait on the arrest warrant." Someone suddenly realized.

Some people were even more puzzled, "The village chief also asked me if I remember the faces of Dong Sanpao's family?"

"Drawing a sheep dealer, I can understand, Chen Yuzuo, do you still want to draw a portrait of the Sanpao family?"

"What do you draw the portraits of Sanpao's family? Aren't you afraid that they will come back and appear ghostly in the portraits to seek your life?" Some villagers shrank their heads, already terrified by the imaginary picture.

Chen Yuan really didn't know that the ancients had such big brains, and superstitious belief in ghosts and gods was really bad.

"Look at you guys, Chen Yu's work is all for the good of Xiyuan Village." At this moment, Liu Yanchun walked over swaggeringly, pulled out a stool and sat down slantedly, leaning his elbows on the table, looking like he was not doing right. look.

"How do you say it?" Not only the villagers were curious, but even Chen Yuan, who was about to explain the intention, wanted to know how Liu Yanchun would make it up.

Liu Yanchun turned his head and blinked at Chen Yuan, then turned his head and said to the villagers in a serious manner, "The Sanpao family is dead without a whole body, beyond recognition, black and white impermanence, I'm afraid I won't be able to recognize them all, and I will miss it by then. Isn't the village dangerous?"

"What he said is reasonable!" The villagers thought about it, and it didn't make sense.

"What should I do?"

"Chen Yu can solve this problem by drawing a portrait?"

"Of course!" Liu Yanchun replied decisively, "There are wanted warrants in the world, and naturally there are wanted warrants in the underworld."

One of the villagers nodded wisely, "Oh~, I understand!"

"I also understand that ordinary ghost agents only need to call people's names to arrest people, but Sanpao's family is torn apart, and the spelling of beans is not complete. I missed a certain part by mistake.”

"Perhaps Chen Yuzuo just wanted to finish the painting and let the ghosts of Sanpao's family return to her portrait, so that it would be easier for ghosts to catch them."

"No wonder Chen Yuzuo came this morning and painted the portraits. The Taoist priest hired by the village chief came over in the afternoon and summoned the souls of Sanpao's family members in the evening so that they could possess the portraits, and then they would be superseded..."

Listening to everyone's self-righteous explanations, Chen Yuan seemed to feel that she had entered the world of Liaozhai.

"Little sister, if you said that the portrait was painted to fight the corpse and catch the real murderer, the villagers might not tell you anything for fear of the murderer's revenge."

Liu Yanchun looked like a veteran, "It's not necessary to explain everything to them clearly, it's better to say so, they will cooperate more."

Was he worried that he was too old-fashioned? Chen Yuan felt a little funny in her heart, not because she was laughing at Liu Yanchun's unnecessary actions, but because she was not an unenlightened person.

It's not that she can't lie, it's just that the environment she lived in since she was a child is different from the education she received, and the professional ethics of being a forensic doctor don't allow her to play tricks and talk about ghosts.

"Come here first if you've seen the sheep dealer. Let's draw his face first." Chen Yuan picked up the pen.

"Let's draw Dong Sanpao's family first!"

"Yeah, I guess today is the first seven, if we don't let San Pao's family get rid of it earlier, we won't be able to sleep well at night."

"There are so many yamen guards in the village, and the sheep dealer is not in a hurry to escape, so why would he dare to come to our village?"

"This sheep dealer is the least important thing! If he dares to come to our village, the ghosts of Sanpao's family will take him away. Chen Yuzuo, let's draw a portrait of Sanpao's family first!" This is not a request, but an order.

The idea of ​​the ancients is really wonderful. They are not afraid of murderers, but they are afraid of ghosts.

Chen Yuan smiled helplessly, it didn't matter who she drew first, "Okay, let's draw Sanpao's family first, whoever remembers Sanpao's face, please describe it for me."

"Let's draw Dong Zhou's family first. It is said that a woman died unexpectedly, and she will be even more vicious after turning into a ghost! Not to mention that she is from a foreign surname."

"Actually, it's even worse when a child dies. Let's draw Dong Chengzong first."

"Let's draw Dong Shan first. She's a child and a girl. She's only one year old. If she died at such a young age, I'm afraid it's the Nine Heavens Xuannv who went down to the earth to experience calamity."

"..."

Chen Yuan was already powerless to complain, "Don't worry, everyone, the painting will be completed in the time of one stick of incense, and the painting can be finished before lunch, so there is no need to fight first, when the Taoist priest arrives, the portrait can be handed over to him to make it .”

"so fast!"

"I thought it would take a long time to paint a picture."

"Drawing so fast, can you draw like it? It can't be fooled, even ghosts can't recognize it."
