Chapter 135: Instructing Tang Wuming

The fisherman was finally pulled out of his muscles.

It's a pity that there are no special muscles on the body.

Not long after, Tang Wuming brought another piece of bad news:

Several younger brothers who went to find the fisherman's son were beheaded.

"According to the situation at the scene, the fisherman's son died the day before yesterday."

"But no one saw the murderer."

"I asked my men to check, hoping to find traces."

Chu Qing shook his head.

trace?

A person has been dead for several days, where can he find traces?

What's more, there are no witnesses.

These days, unless you find a real tracking master, it will be difficult to find the murderer.

This was just like when he killed Hall Master Liu and others in Shiji County.

Unless someone sees it or actively exposes it.

Otherwise, it's hard to find at all.

But, even if it’s hard to find, you still have to find it.

Chu Qing racked her brains, trying to think of some information she had seen in her previous life.

After a long time, he said:

"Let's see if we can find the murderer's footprints."

"Save the footprints."

"Then, in one village after another, we find people to compare the footprints."

"Also, check the wounds and deduce the opponent's murder weapon."

Tang Wuming's eyes lit up.

Comparing footprints to trace the murderer is a new idea.

Why didn't he think of that?

"Brother Qing, don't worry, I'll send someone to do it immediately."

Chu Qing thought for a moment and said, "Conduct a census."

"Around the eight hundred miles of water, look who hasn't been home these days."

"Or someone is acting strangely."

"Anyone who reports, regardless of whether it is true or false, will be given money."

"Remember, this money must be distributed."

"Otherwise, no one would report it."

Tang Wuming took a small notebook and wrote it down, then looked at him expectantly.

Chu Qing thought for a while and continued:

"All suspects will be locked up and questioned repeatedly."

"Trouble the question and ask it."

"Anyone who lies will be punished immediately!"

Tang Wuming hesitated and said, "We have no right to execute him!"

Chu Qing said speechlessly: "You are a rebel. Let alone torture, even if you kill people, who can do anything?"

Tang Wuming nodded immediately.

Chu Qing continued: "Also, search all the surrounding forts, wealthy families, etc."

"No matter who he is, he will be investigated."

"Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"

Tang Wuming was horrified and said: "Really kill without mercy?"

Chu Qing grabbed Tang Wuming's collar and said seriously: "I want that strange big tendon!"

"If I can't find the strange big tendon, I want everyone in the eight hundred miles of water to die."

"Your people are no exception!"

Tang Wuming's heartbeat quickened.

His face turned pale, and for the first time he truly felt that Chu Qing was really cruel.

Moreover, he is also a ruthless person.

"Is it worth it for that big muscle?"

Chu Qing let go, straightened Tang Wuming's collar and said, "It's worth it!"

Tang Wuming gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I can definitely handle it!"

Chu Qing said calmly: "I hope you can handle it!"

"By the way, where is that salesman from?"

"People from Loach Village!"

Chu Qing smiled.

Loach Village?

It seems that the people in this place are good at avoiding things.

He thought for a moment and said, "Take a few hundred swordsmen and follow me to Loach Village!"

Loach Village was not far from the lake. An hour later, they arrived.

The village is not very big, with only a few dozen families.

When Chu Qing and others came over, the village suddenly became lively.

Everyone, at Chu Qing's request, was taken to the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

These people looked at Chu Qing with panic in their hearts.

because:

Chu Qing was dressed in brocade clothes, while they were all dressed in linen and barefoot, and many of them only wore a pair of trousers.

Life is quite hard.

Chu Qing smiled and said: "Everyone, I am here for only one purpose."

"Salesman, I only want the salesman!"

"Who is the peddler's relative?"

The crowd was rioting, and an old man said: "The salesman has no relatives."

Others nodded.

However, Chu Qing found that some of them had flashing eyes and lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

Chu Qing smiled and pointed out those people and asked Tang Wuming to take them to a distance for interrogation.

Not long after, the boys came back and said:

"Master Qing, the salesman has a godfather, but his godfather disappeared together with the salesman."

Chu Qing sighed.

He said to everyone: "Everyone, you have disappointed me!"

"So, you will be punished!"

"Well, go and take one-third of the food from each family and give it to those who are willing to tell us the news!"

Wow!

A group of swordsmen, working immediately.

Some people want to resist.

As a result, the swordsmen kicked and punched, and then no one resisted anymore.

at this time:

Chu Qing said: "Everyone, who can tell me the specific situation of the salesman?"

This time, the men scrambled to answer.

Chu Qing listened carefully.

Ten minutes later, he got to know the salesman.

This guy was just an ordinary fisherman a few years ago.

However, a few years ago, an old man came over and became a fisherman, walking around the streets.

My life as a kid was pretty good.

A few days ago, the salesman suddenly came back in a hurry, and then took the old man away not long after.

As for where they went, they didn't know.

The old man was also very strange. He would go for a walk in the woods not far away every day.

Chu Qing followed the instructions and went to see the grove.

Then, he was thoughtful.

Because:

There is a small open space in the grove.

The ground of this open space was trampled very flat and hard.

He stepped on it, but there was no footprint left.

Using the golden tendons to bless the Dragon Subduing Pillar.

Bang!

There was a footprint one finger deep on the ground.

Tang Wuming wondered: "Brother Qing, is there something wrong with this place?"

Chu Qing nodded and said: "The Dragon Subduing Pillar I just used can normally leave a one-foot deep footprint on the ground."

"But now it only leaves such a shallow footprint."

"That old man is not simple, he should be a master."

Tang Wuming thought: "That peddler, maybe he is also a master?"

"That old man, maybe he recognized the importance of the strange tendons?"

Chu Qing nodded and said: "Yes!"

"But, the two of them took my things."

"Why is there still news leaked?"

He was very puzzled.

Tang Wuming said, "It shouldn't be the fisherman who leaked the information. We caught him as soon as we knew the news."

"He said he never told anyone else."

"Besides, they are all poor people. They naturally won't let outsiders know that they have made a fortune."

Chu Qing nodded.

He guessed that the leaker was the old man or one of the peddlers.

"It seems that they had an internal conflict."

Chu Qing thought for a while and said to Tang Wuming, "You ask the painter to come and draw the faces of the peddler and the old man according to the description of this group of people."

"Okay!"

Tang Wuming was busy.

Chu Qing was thinking about how to find the peddler and the old man.

And at this moment, there was a chaotic sound in the distance.

Chu Qing looked over and saw several people in brocade clothes, riding horses, arguing with the rebels.

He frowned and said, "Drive these people away!"

"Yes!"

Not long after, the quarrel turned into a fight.

A brocade man holding a long sword killed seven or eight rebels in a row.

The other rebels were timid and didn't dare to move forward.

The man in brocade clothes shouted angrily: "A group of rebels dare to stop us?"

"Do you believe that I will destroy you today, and tomorrow I will send out a hero invitation to destroy all the rebels in your 800-li water marsh?"
