The soldier sitting paralyzed on the ground screamed: "Fake corpse!" Lin Yuan also thought to himself: "That's not right! Why did the corpse come out by itself?"

At this moment, I saw that human head slowly rising from the hole, then the neck, shoulders, chest and back, and when the waist was exposed, the crowd let out a long sigh. It turned out that this corpse turned out to be the soldier under the hole. Held it out!

The soldier sitting slumped on the ground said angrily: "Why are you lifting the corpse out? Is it interesting to scare people?"

The warrior below the cave laughed and said, "Isn't it just a dead person, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Lin Yuan walked closer and said angrily, "Who told you to get the corpse out? Do you know the cause of death? What if he died of illness? We will all be infected!"

The soldier said aggrievedly: "I didn't think that much, they all laughed at me, so I just..."

Lin Yuan stared fiercely, and said angrily, "I didn't obey the command and acted without permission, so I went back and wrote a [-]-word self-criticism."

Just as the soldier begged for mercy, Lin Yuan waved his hand and said, "Okay, put the corpse aside first. Where are the money and white things? Show me first."

The soldier pointed to the back and said, "It's on him." The soldier behind handed the money and the white things to Lin Yuan, and the crowd gathered around. Lin Yuan first took the one hundred yuan note in his hand, and pointed at The sunlight swirled a few times, and the ink changed into different colors. Lin Yuan said, "It seems to be true. They don't have the ability to make counterfeit coins yet."

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he opened the bag of white powder, looked at it carefully for a while, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I left in time that day, otherwise I must have died!"

Fade Chen hurriedly asked: "What is this bag of white things?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Nitrocellulose is a type of explosive. When we were among wolves, I used it as a torch!"

Fade Chen asked: "Could it be that Yuan Shikai was involved with the Japanese?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "You are overthinking. There are people selling this kind of thing in the international market. If Yuan Shikai can buy it, the Japanese can also buy it. Seeing how they fled in a hurry, they don't know what is in the cave. I plan to take it, I think they must let the old monk Huiming lead me into the meditation room that day, and then detonate the explosives to kill me!"

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Fortunately, Shuai Lin ran fast!" Lin Yuan pointed at the corpse with his hand, and said with a smile, "If my guess is right, the person who died should be the person who died that day. The little novice who delivered the tea, he looked very flustered that day, it was from him that I sensed the danger in the house, and then ran away, those people must blame him, so they killed him!"

Fade Chen walked up to the dead body, turned the body over, and said to Lin Yuan, "That's right, this little novice was indeed the one who delivered the tea that day."

Lin Yuan said: "Let me see the cause of his death." Then he walked to the little novice, squatted down, and saw his wound on his neck at a glance. Lin Yuan looked at it for a while, and then said to Fade Chen: "You know that someone in Yuan Shikai's camp was killed by a master, and his trachea was cut with a knife?"

Fade Chen replied: "I heard what Gao Yu said."

Lin Yuan pointed to the little novice, and said, "This little novice also died like that. It seems that the people who did it were Japanese!"

Chen Fei asked: "Then where can we find those Japanese?"

Lin Yuan pointed to the little monk and said, "Let's search and see if there are any clues."

The two soldiers then rummaged through the little novice, shook their heads after a while, and said, "No, there is nothing on him."

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "Then go to the bedroom of these monks and the bedroom of the old monk Huiming to search, as long as it is with words, don't let it go."

Everyone went back to the house, searched for a while, and a soldier came out with something like a letter, and said to Lin Yuan, "Shuai Lin, we found this in the old monk Huiming's room!"

Lin Yuan couldn't help asking, "What is this?"

The soldier replied: "It seems to be something like a business card."

Lin Yuan took the letter and looked at it, only to see that it said: "Wei Qingyuan from Antai Bodyguard Bureau worships!" Lin Yuan said: "This is a letter of greeting."

Fade Chen asked on the side: "Greetings? Who is Wei Qingyuan? What does Antai Escort do? What are they doing in this monastery?"

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "I don't know, but this Antai Escort Agency is probably another secret stronghold of the Japanese. Let's talk about it when we go back and investigate."

Lin Yuan then took the crowd back and informed Wang Xiang to take people out of the cave in the monastery. Then Lin Yuan called Yu Baoshui and An Dezhong in and asked, "Have you heard that Have you ever been to Antai Escort?"

Yu Baoshui and An Dezhong said one after another: "Why haven't I heard of it? That is the most famous bodyguard bureau in Shaanxi-Gansu area! The official silver sent from Xinjiang is all escorted by their bodyguard bureau. 1000 taels of silver are taken from 10 taels of silver." Dart money and official silver are shipped at a minimum of 1000 taels, and a trip to the darts nets [-] taels of silver! What a big profit!"

After hearing this, Lin Yuan asked curiously: "The bodyguard bureau is still escorting the official silver? Can't they send troops to escort him?"

Yu Baoshui said with a smile: "Commander Lin, don't you understand? There are too many yamen for escorting officials and bankers, Yanzheng yamen, Hedao yamen, they can't control the army! If you ask the army to help you escort them, there will be I owe you favors, and the people in the army ask for a lot of money, which is much more expensive than the Escort!"

Lin Yuan continued to ask: "There is a man named Wei Qingyuan in the escort agency, have you heard of it?"

Yu Baoshui shook his head lightly, and said: "The chief escort of Antai Escort Bureau is called Huang Ying, who is good at darts. His darts are made of gold, so he is called 'Golden Dart Pressing the Green Forest'! I have never heard of someone named Wei Qingyuan." ah."

Lin Yuan asked casually, "Is it made of gold? How soft is gold! Isn't it less lethal than steel?"

Yu Baoshui chuckled, and said, "Everyone who runs the rivers and lakes likes to flatter him. Isn't it nice to say that the golden dart is good? And I heard that his golden dart is actually made of brass, and it's just for viewing..."

Lin Yuan also laughed, and An Dezhong said at this time: "When we were stationed in Tianshui, we wanted to find a few bodyguards to teach our soldiers martial arts, so we had a lot of contacts with Antai Bodyguard Bureau. It is true that there is no Wei Qingyuan in their bodyguard bureau. people!"

Lin Yuan nodded and thought to himself: "If there is no such person, why would there be such a greeting card? Could it be that the Japanese deliberately made a fake greeting card to amuse me? They left in such a hurry that even the easiest banknotes I didn't take it away, will I have time to make a fake greeting card?"

Lin Yuan couldn't figure out why, so he let Yu Baoshui and An Dezhong go first. At this moment, Gao Yu walked in. When Lin Yuan saw her, he smiled and said, "Are you looking for Fade Chen?"

Gao Yu said shyly, "No, I'm here to find you."

Lin Yuan asked, "What's the matter?"

Gao Yu said: "Yuan Shikai sent someone to tell you that tomorrow he will leave for Tianshui, and he asked you to prepare. If you are not here, they will tell me and Sister Wanqing the news."

Lin Yuan asked, "Then why didn't you, Miss Wan Qing, come and tell me?"

Gao Yu's face turned red again, and Lin Yuan thought to himself: "I want to see Fade Chen, but I'm too embarrassed to say it, let me make fun of you." Just as Lin Yuan was about to speak, Gao Yu picked up the greeting card on the table, pointed at the name on it, Asked curiously: "Wei Qingyuan? Brother-in-law, do you know him too?"
