Chapter Seventy-Seven: White Bones in the Sun (19)

The heart of the heart was relaxed. Just as he was about to disperse the villagers, he heard Long Xingtu's order to the constable, "Immediately return to the county government to report to Lord Du, asking Lord Du to send troops to ban Daijiazhuang! From now on, no one is allowed to enter and exit Daijiazhuang until the case is solved!"

"Master Long, this... isn't this very convenient?" Li was froze in place, his face extremely ugly.

The Dragon Star Map's eyes suddenly turned sharp, "Since Li Zheng is unwilling to cooperate, the government has to take some measures!"

The old patriarch was very good at human relationships and the world was so busy that he said: "Master Long has relieved the fire. In fact, the embroidery lady had already left Daijiazhuang. Because the embroidery lady did something that insulted his ancestors, everyone was ashamed to mention it."

Long Xingtu frowned: "Oh? Why did you insult your ancestors? When did you leave?"

"In the thirty-sixth year of Emperor Zhao, the embroidered girl, Hongxing, and elope with a mercenary."

The old patriarch's concise explanation cannot end the Dragon Star Map's doubts, "Who is the name of the merchant? Where is the elopement?"

"I am a foreigner from the south. I heard that my surname is Chen. I don't know where they elope, so I don't know, otherwise the clan would definitely report to the official law."

"How to determine that it was an elopement? Has anyone seen it with their own eyes?"

"Yes, many villagers saw it. That night was a temple fair, and the villagers were watching shadow puppets in front of the stage. The Xiu Niang's house suddenly caught fire, and everyone rushed to help put out the fire. Then the Xiu Niang and the merchant elope in the chaos. More than a dozen strong men in the village chased them out of the village for more than twenty miles away, but they didn't get it back. I don't know where the two adulterers had gone."

Hearing that the Dragon Star Map was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Thank you, the old patriarch, for telling you. Thank you for your hard work, I will ask you if you have any questions."

"This is what you deserve, Master Long doesn't need to thank him."

The villagers dispersed one after another, and Li Zheng said a few more polite words to the old patriarch, and then left.

Long Xingtu collected the roster and told the constable, "You stay here, I'll go around the village."

"Star Map!"

Just then, Zhong Chu and Song Dabao came over, "We have made a major discovery!"

...

At sunset, Li Yanzhou, Zhang Qing and Captain Liu brought a team of capable detectives to Daijiazhuang.

Looking at the Dragon Star Map one by one, I felt a little strange, "Didn't Zhongli come?"

"Lord Du sent Zhong Li to Laohu Village to investigate the situation. It should not be here in the next or two days." Li Yanzhou pinched his eyebrows tiredly, and responded casually.

The Dragon Star Ma's eyes were obviously full of suspicion, "Is that right?"

"Do I need to lie to you?" Li Yanzhou's expression was very innocent. The next sentence changed the topic, "The painter is not good at it. I will draw a woman in white for you. Do you think she looks like it?" After that, he spread the painting in his sleeve bag.

Sure enough, Long Xingtu looked at the woman in the painting, his eyes gradually became straight and surprise came, "You can draw? Don't you hate piano, chess, calligraphy and painting..."

"Hmm?" Li Yanzhou interrupted her in time and asked in surprise: "Why do I hate it?"

The Dragon Star Map was stunned for a moment before she realized it and hurriedly said, "Just just now. I thought you... no, people like you should..."

"Wait!"

Li Yanzhou really couldn't listen, and his handsome face turned into a pot sticker, "Longxing Map, what does it mean to be a person like me? Are you praising me or wanting to belittle me if you look for an opportunity?"
