Jiang Wanglou and Xiong Xi came to Bai Mansion to tell Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang that the sacrificial ceremony, mountain god traditions, blood sacrifices, etc. were all a mess. But in the end, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't take a word of it seriously, but instead investigated Jiang Wanglou's past.

Murder of father.

Zhan Zhao saw Jiang Wanglou's crimes through the eyes of the devil, so he did indeed kill someone, but it is very difficult to solve this case.

Even if the coffin needs to be opened for an autopsy, Mr. Jiang’s body cannot be dug out casually. In order to open the coffin, there are generally two conditions.

First, there must be evidence to prove that the cause of death of the deceased was incorrect.

Second, the consent of family members is required.

Mr. Jiang was widowed in his early years and never remarried. He raised Jiang Wanglou alone and had no other blood relatives.

Everyone couldn't help but shake their heads. Jiang Wanglou, this unkind and unfilial bastard, was simply worse than a beast.

But Zhan Zhao is a yamen official, not a tomb robber. To open the old man’s coffin, you must first get approval from the yamen, and then you must have Jiang Wanglou’s consent. Jiang Wanglou will definitely not agree to it, so you have to prove that he is an important suspect.

Only in this way can we skip him and directly let the Yamen issue the approval documents and open the coffin for autopsy.

Zhan Zhao was thinking about going to Jiang Wanglou, and he must let that boy be punished by law.

…

On the other side, after dinner, Ouyang took Lu Xiaoxiao for a walk in the garden of Bai Mansion. By the way, he told Xiaoxiao what he had just heard outside the living room door about the blood sacrifice.

Xiaoxiao listened and shook her head calmly, "It must be a lie."

Ouyang agreed, and also expressed his opinion that what the mountain god left behind must be good things.

After hearing this, Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly and said that she felt the same way.

"It doesn't matter whether the mountain gods are gods or not." Xiaoxiao said, "The gods in the mountains are never humans, animals are the ones that dominate the mountains and forests. The reason why mountains are spiritual is because there are birds, animals, flowers, plants and trees in them.

It has never been important whether there are people in the mountains. The idea of ​​people wanting to become mountain gods and rule the mountains is absurd...A tiger can only occupy one mountain top at most, and no tiger wants to rule all the mountain tops."

Ouyang nodded. On the one hand, he thought this was reasonable. On the other hand, he thought Xiaoxiao's serious expression when speaking was particularly cute.

"Whether it's Jiang Wanglou or those people in Xiong Palace, they got one thing wrong." Lu Xiaoxiao continued, "The ancestors of the mountain gods, whether they were hundreds or thousands of years ago, whether they were ordinary people or giants, as long as they were

When they are in the mountains, they accept the protection of the mountains and forests, instead of controlling the mountains and forests! The theory of blood sacrifice is nonsense! People in the mountains only want good weather, so what do they want with unparalleled martial arts and gold and silver treasures? Even if they have millions of gold, they can prevent winter from falling.

If the snow doesn’t bloom in the spring, if the fish don’t swim in the water, won’t the birds fly high?”

Ouyang nodded and nodded - the more he looks at it, the cuter it becomes!

"The animals in the mountains are as close to us as brothers and sisters. Who would kill his own brothers and sisters to sacrifice to heaven? Anyway, if anyone dares to touch my brothers and sisters, I will never let him go!"

…

Not far away, Zhao Pu and Zou Liang passed by the corridor and saw Ouyang and Xiaoxiao chatting against the railing in the pavilion beside the lotus pond.

While Xiaoxiao was talking, Ouyang stared at the girl stupidly.

Zou Liang clicked his tongue and said, "You know how to read, so let's hold hands!"

Zhao Pu folded his arms and shook his head, "It depends on the timing when holding hands. If you don't get it right, you might get beaten!"

Zou Liang looked at his marshal, as if asking - are you talking about him or yourself?

Zhao Pu also glanced at Zou Liang - Have you been quite arrogant recently? It seems that holding hands is easy.

Zou Liang turned his face, holding hands is nothing!

…

"Ah sneeze..."

Lin Yehuo was sitting at the table combing the mute's hair. The mute had been moulting recently, and when he combed it, the loose hair flew all over the place. Huo Feng sneezed several times.

At the table, four children were sitting together and writing letters.

The three children, Liangchenmei and Liangchenmei, are all away from home, and Gongsun's control is relatively strict, requiring the three children to write home every once in a while to report that they are safe.

The fourth son is also writing a letter. Of course, he is not writing to his father, but to He Yihang at the border and the Eight Kings and Crown Princesses in Kaifeng City. The fourth son writes many letters every month.

I will also receive a lot of replies. People like Zhao Pulin Yehuo and others who are too lazy to write when they are away from home are the fourth sons who help them report that their families are safe.

While Lin Yehuo was combing his fur, he asked his fourth son to ask He Yihang how the Sailer family was doing. The wolves in Black Wind City must have had a lot of new wolf cubs...

Xiao Liangzi glanced at Lin Yehuo and said to himself, you should ask how the Huofeng Hall is doing, you unambitious hall master!

While he was busy, he saw Zhan Zhao flashing in from outside the courtyard door, holding a chubby white cat in his hand.

No matter where the Baifu is, there are so many cats that you can easily catch one.

Zhan Zhao carried the cat and sat down on a stone bench next to Lin Yehuo, putting the cat on his lap.

Huo Feng found out that Zhan Zhao came alone, and was a little unaccustomed to it. Bai Lao Wu was not there.

Zhan Zhao seemed to see Lin Yehuo's doubts and said, "To check something, Yutang went to find the housekeeper."

Lin Yehuo raised his eyebrows and patted the mute's belly, indicating to him that this side was combed and it was time to comb the other side.

The mute obediently turned over and continued to read the four children writing furiously.

Lin Yehuo looked at Zhan Zhao again - Then why are you here?

Zhan Zhao said, "I want to ask the fourth son for help."

After Zhan Zhao finished speaking, both Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi raised their heads. Xiao Sizi reached out and pushed down Xiao Liangzi's head to let him continue writing, while asking Zhan Zhao, "Maomao, what are you looking for?"

Zhan Zhao said, "Find someone!"

The fourth boy tilted his head - who is he?

"A person who most likely does not exist."

As soon as Zhan Zhao said this, the other two children looked up.

Lin Yehuo's hand holding the comb also stopped, and he pushed the two distracted children back to continue writing letters. Huofeng looked at Zhan Zhao puzzledly - what new trick are you doing?

"Maybe it doesn't exist?" The fourth child didn't understand either.

Zhan Zhao said that he and Bai Yutang wanted to find out if there were any witnesses to the night Jiang Wanglou killed his father.

"Oh..." The fourth child stretched out his little hand and touched his chin, "It is indeed possible that this does not exist."

"What a coincidence that there are witnesses?" Xiao Liangzi also asked.

"Maybe there really is."

"That's right, Skynet is very sparse and there are no leaks!"

Several children started discussing.

Lin Yehuo didn't feel very optimistic, "Everyone in the Jiang family went their separate ways back then. It's been so many years since this happened... Even if there were witnesses at the time, who would believe it now! Jiang Wanglou is famous in the world.

It’s true that Wanglou City has become quite popular. The witness might just be a servant of the Jiang family. He didn’t dare to say anything back then, and he dares not to say anything now.”

Several children also nodded. No one was in the mood to write letters and help with ideas.

Xiao Liangzi said, "Did Jiang Wanglou strangle him to death in his father's room?"

Zhan Zhao recalled the scene he had seen before, nodded... and then froze.

After a pause, Zhan Zhao suddenly stood up.

Everyone looked up at him - what's wrong?

Zhan Zhao recalled the scene he had seen before. He saw it from Jiang Wanglou's perspective. Jiang Wanglou was very excited at the time and kept screaming when he strangled his father to death... Zhan Zhao now recalled the situation at that time. It was windy...

…And there is a feeling that there is someone nearby. Is it just my imagination?

At this time, Bai Yutang walked in from the outside, holding a list in his hand, "Cat..."

The fifth master didn't even have time to say "son" when he saw Zhan Zhao put down the cat, picked up the fourth son, and rushed to him, "There's something going on!"

After saying that, he dragged Bai Yutang and ran to Jiang's old house.

Lin Yehuo patted the dog hair on his body, stood up and ran away, followed by a string of three children...

After running out of the door, Lin Yehuo came back, took the mute off the table and put it on the ground, patted its head, turned around and ran away again.

…

Tianzun and Yin Hou happened to be returning from a walk. When they saw a group of people running out, they followed them to have a look.

Arriving at the Jiang family's old house, Zhan Zhao put the fourth son on the table, then pulled Bai Yutang over and asked him to sit on a chair.

The Fifth Master sat on the chair, Zhan Zhao looked for the angle, and finally felt that what he saw was similar to what Jiang Wanglou saw that night, so he put his hands on Bai Yutang's shoulders.

Everyone folded their arms and watched.

Lin Yehuo looked around, "Are all the windows closed at night?"

"My father hasn't touched it since he bought it..." Before Master Wu could finish his words, Zhan Zhao suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

Zhan Zhao pointed to himself and asked Bai Yutang, "If I pinch your neck, you will look at me, right?"

Fifth Master thought for a moment - why don't you pinch it and take a look?

Zhan Zhao gently pressed his hands on both sides of Wu Ye's neck and asked him, "Where are you looking?"
