Chapter 240 Secret Passage
The villagers of Yinyi Village were furious.

Murong Fu didn't look very good when he was accused. He thought about when did his cousin Gusu Murong ever suffer such "grievance".

But compared to Murong Fu.

There was another person in the crowd at this moment, whose face was a bit gloomier than Murong Fu's.

This person is Li Si.

Li Si wanted to send Luo Yang and the others away as soon as possible early this morning. He did not want them to continue to interfere with the affairs of the Hermitage Village. The identities of these outsiders were not simple. If they were allowed to continue to entangle, they would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.

Especially what happened twenty years ago, once the news is leaked, the entire Hermitage Village will be in disaster.

But he never expected it.

He had worked so hard for the village, but now he was stabbed in the back by the villagers.

Now locking these outsiders in the village seems to be maintaining the dignity of the hermit village, but in fact it is no different from burying a landmine in the village.

Murong Fu took a deep breath and agreed to Li Si's conditions.

Bao Zheng didn't say anything because he was thinking about the circumstances of Zhu Liu's murder case and didn't pay attention to this aspect at all.

Although the process is different, in terms of results, the current situation actually meets Murong Fu's demands.

However, looking at the angry and determined faces outside the door, he knew that he had no choice in the matter.

Regarding this request, Li Si only considered it for a few seconds before nodding in agreement: "Okay."

"Seven days, I will give you seven days to find out the truth. If you still can't give us an explanation in the Hermitage Village after seven days, even if you gather the strength of the whole village, you will have to pay with your blood."

"Zhuo Yun, Yang Kai, I will leave it to you to take charge of the next thing."

These words were not only spoken to Murong Fu and others, but also to Luo Yang, Bao Zheng and others.

Under the current situation that has aroused public outrage, Luo Yang and Bao Zheng have obviously been regarded as Murong Fu's accomplices by the people in the Hermitage Village.

Li Si said in a deep voice:

Li Si became a hands-off shopkeeper and directly handed all the rest of the work to two young men, Zhuo Yun and Yang Kai.

Luo Yang didn't say anything because he had long been accustomed to this kind of "unwarranted involvement", so he was very calm.

"But before that, I need to talk to my fourth child."

Although Murong Fu agreed to help investigate the case, he also made a request.

Neither Luo Yang nor Bao Zheng spoke.

I sighed secretly in my heart.

"Okay, within seven days, I, Murong Fu, will definitely give your village a satisfactory answer."

Li Si deliberately refused.

Li Si was not worried that Murong Fu would take the opportunity to escape with Feng Bo Evil. On the contrary, he was eager for Murong Fu to secretly rescue Feng Bo Evil.

"I understand, Fourth Uncle."

Wait until Li Si leads a group of villagers to leave.

Murong Fu then walked up to Feng BoE and opened his acupuncture points.

As soon as the acupuncture points were unlocked, a hint of shame suddenly appeared on Feng Bo Evil's face. He lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Young Master, the Fourth Brother has embarrassed you."

Murong Fu had a stern look on his face, and without saying any words of reprimand, he asked directly: "What's going on?"

Feng Bo evil said: "I don't know what happened. When I came here before, I saw a masked man killing Zhu Liu. At that time, I wanted to chase him."

"I didn't expect that as soon as that person entered Zhu Liu's house, he disappeared."

"I saw something was wrong, so I planned to leave. As soon as I left the gate, I bumped into Zhu Liu's family and Li Si. After a fight, I was caught by Li Si."

While Feng BoE was talking, Luo Yang, Bao Zheng and others all came over. After listening to what he said, Bao Zheng immediately frowned and discovered his blind spot. "Mr. Feng just said that after the masked man killed Zhu Liu, he did not escape, but instead fled into Zhu Liu's home?"

"Yes, this is what's strange about me."

Feng BoE nodded: "Originally, I suspected that the guy might have slipped out of the back door, but Li Si and the others came from the back door before. If someone had slipped out of the back door at that time, with Li Si's martial arts, it would have been impossible to detect any movement. Less than.”

"But from his reaction just now, it seems that he didn't see the murderer."

Everyone looked at Yang Kai. Yang Kai was one of the people who had followed Li Si to Zhu Liu's house.

Yang Kai shook his head: "I didn't see any masked people."

This statement came out.

Everyone's faces suddenly showed doubts.

This is strange.

The masked man neither escaped from the back door nor slipped out from the front door, so how could he disappear out of thin air after he rushed into Zhu Liu's house?

"Could it be that the man escaped into a secret passage?"

Just when everyone was puzzled, Zhuo Yun suddenly said something that instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Secret passages?"

"What secret passage?"

Zhuo Yun said: "When I was young, I accidentally discovered a secret passage in my house. At that time, I asked my father what the secret passage was for, but I didn't get an answer. Instead, I was beaten by my father. A meal.”

"And there is a secret passage like this in Chu Chu's family, so I wonder if Uncle Zhu Liu's house may also have such a secret passage."

Hearing this, Ling Chuchu nodded immediately, admitting Zhuo Yun's words: "Yes, I also have a secret passage like that in my house."

These words immediately opened everyone's minds.

Luo Yang, Bao Zheng, Murong Fu and others looked at each other and quickly started to have concerns in their minds.

"We should ask someone."

If there really is a secret passage in Zhu Liu's family, then besides Zhu Liu, Zhu Liu's mother-in-law and son are the most likely people to know about it.

But now foreigners like Luo Yang, Bao Zheng, and Murong Fu have been equated with "murderers" in the hearts of the Zhu Liu family.

So if they ask, it's obviously impossible to find out anything.

Think about it.

In the end, this matter can only fall on Zhuo Yun, Yang Kai, Ling Chuchu and other people from this village.

Ling Chuchu and Bao Zheng were too close, so it was inappropriate.

Yang Kai is not very willing to help outsiders like them. After all, although Luo Yang and Bao Zheng both think that it is unlikely that Feng Bo evil is the murderer, it is not necessarily the case for others.

However, Zhuo Yun has an easy-going personality and doesn't mind doing this small favor.

When Zhuo Yun walked into Zhu Liu's home and asked Aunt Liu and his family if they knew about the "secret passage".

Bao Zheng also began to examine Zhu Liu's body.

Zhu Liu's fatal wound was on his back. Apparently the masked man killed him by sneak attack.

And his expression before death was a little strange. It was an expression full of horror and disbelief, as if he had seen something unbelievable before he died.

"what?"

Bao Zheng checked it for a while, and suddenly, he let out a light sigh.

Then he turned towards Luo Yang and said, "Master Luo, could you please help me see what kind of martial arts was used to cause this scar?"
