"OK, where's di San?" Lu Li raised his eyes and looked around. He didn't see anyone else. He thought that di sanruo really made a living by it. He still didn't know which river he went to.

"Don't worry, let's find it." The man said he was leaving.

"Hey!"

A young man who fell into the water stopped him. He hesitated in his eyes and said, "how long are you going to walk?"

In fact, he was worried that the other party would not come back after leaving. After all, he had the silver.

The man stopped as soon as he took a few steps, turned back and said to a man behind him, "stay here and wait with several masters."

"Yes." The man behind him was obedient. He turned his face and looked at the childe who questioned their character. He hummed softly, found a tree pier and sat down.

The breeze blew and made people feel a little cold. The weather in early autumn was already cold. In addition, it was by the river. Lu Li gave Lu Pei his robe and was shivered by the wind.

Lu Pei wrapped his cloak tightly. He didn't notice Lu Li's reaction. Instead, he looked at the people who competed with him, smiled and waved to them, and said, "hurry home and change your clothes. It's none of your business here."

Several childe brothers have long wanted to leave. When they heard this, they didn't agree. They hurried over, thanked them in front of several people, turned and left.

There were only a few of them left. Lu Li couldn't help complaining and said in a deep voice: "seven younger brothers, if you make such nonsense again in the future, I don't care about you."

Lu Pei was too trained to lift his head. He set up the collar of his cloak and put it on his cheeks. He wished he could wrap his head too.

A sound of footsteps came from a distance. The man named di San soon came near. Li Rushu looked up and was startled by him. He jumped up suddenly and jumped to Lu Li's side. There was a ferocious scar on the man's left cheek. There was some pink in the scar. It was really terrible.

If this man comes out at night, he will certainly scare the child to cry. His left face is really like a ghost.

"Scared?" Di San looked at Li Rusu coldly and said, "don't think about it. I was burned when I was a child."

Li Rushu quickly stopped his shocked look, felt a little ashamed, and forced out a smile, "I'm sorry."

Di San moved his eyes and looked at the river. He soon picked up the hook and went into the water.

The other three also helped, and the river became quiet again.

Less than half a column of incense, the four people's faces floated up from the water, took a little breath and drilled in again, and then floated again soon. This time they didn't breathe, but walked slowly to the shore. Di San and the black faced man's arms stretched back, stretched very straight, and the long iron hooks slowly exposed on the water. They looked like they were hanging things.

There was a splash of water, and a dead man was dragged up from the water.

The clothes that the dead man was wearing could not see the style. His exposed skin was white and his stomach was swollen. It was so big that he broke his clothes and was caught by a hook. Looking through the largest hole, some stones were exposed.

As soon as Li Rushu walked forward, a strong corpse gas rushed over, which made her back several steps.

"Don't go there!"

Lu Li also wanted to go up. He was tightly grasped by Li Rusu and said, "report to the official. The smell is too strong. Spread it here and let the people of Dali Temple transport the corpse."

Send a boy to inform Dali temple. A corpse truck will come there soon, and Lu Li and others will go with him.

Di San stopped Li Rushu when she was leaving, stared into her eyes, looked meaningfully, and then said, "the river is too deep. We're not sure if there are any bodies in it. If someone reported missing recently, we need to salvage the bodies again. Don't forget to go to dianzi village to find me."

Li Rushu was surprised, but he nodded.

When Shaoqing of Dali Temple heard that there was a dead body in the moat, he attached great importance to it and soon arranged for a post-mortem. However, the post-morticians didn't find out anything except that the body was a woman and had just died for four days. The coroner didn't know what the weapon was and where the fatal injury was.

Lord Xia, the young Qing of Dali temple, came out of the military camp. He had a square face. A glance at his beard added a lot of dignity to him. When the coroner asked him, he was in a hurry. He patted the table and shouted, "let's conduct an autopsy and find out such a thing? Can this solve the case? "

The coroner trembled and said, "Lord Xia, this man's internal organs have been dug out, filled with stones and sank to the bottom of the river. After soaking for several days, the meat is almost rotten. He can't even see a birthmark. There's really no way."

"Incompetence!" He became more angry and said angrily, "it's OK to fool ordinary people. Who is my official? Can you be fooled by these words? That's what you do. I think you just don't play for a few days. Your skin itches, don't you? " Then he picked up one inkstone and threw it away.

The coroner didn't dare to avoid. The inkstone directly hit his forehead. Suddenly, red blood flowed down his face. Li Rusu looked at it and frowned.

The little Qing of Dali temple was too fierce. She got up and said, "Lord Xia, calm down. The coroner's words were not unreasonable. At that time, when we asked someone to salvage, we almost couldn't salvage it. The body was filled with stones and sank under the water. Fortunately, we could still see the human shape in the past four days. I'm afraid that if we wait a few more days, our arms and legs would be washed away by the current."

As soon as the coroner heard that she interceded for herself, he raised his head and looked at her gratefully. Then he said, "Lord Li is right. That's the reason..."

"Shut up!"

With a bang, the tea lamp in Lord Xia's hand suddenly gave a meal on the table. The tea lamp didn't break, but there was a loud voice. Few people contradicted him in Dali temple, and didn't pay attention to the little official Li Rusu. When she questioned herself face to face, her beard was crooked.

"Li Rujing, aren't you in charge of the academy? After working in the house of interior for a few days, dare you come and shake your prestige with me? " He stared, glanced at the corner of his mouth and said, "I can't ask for the head of the house of internal affairs. You can stay as early as possible."

If Lu Li wasn't nearby, Lord Xia could directly invite Li Rusu out. Just after these words, a voice came out, "Lord Xia, the king didn't hear the meaning of playing prestige in Lord Li's words. Since there is a dead body in the moat, sort out the folding first and report it to the palace."

Lord Xia was stunned, slightly turned his head, and saw that Lu Li's face was very ugly. He restrained his look, bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, it's not appropriate to report the matter to the palace before the investigation is clear. It's better to check it in private."

Since it's a homicide case, Dali temple has the responsibility to investigate the case. If the case can't be found out all the time, the emperor will know it in advance. Isn't it detrimental to his official prestige? Lord Xia spoke to Lu Li, his tone obviously eased down, and even a glimmer of prayer flashed in his eyes.
