Leng Yi continued: "On the woodcutting road, you pretended to see the ghost of Fatty Mingzhi and fell off the cliff to death. In fact, you were hiding on the edge of the cliff at a place you had found in advance. Before that, you were already under the cliff.

A corpse was placed - this corpse should have been dug out by you from the new grave buried under the hillside of the temple yesterday. It was carried to the cliff and thrown down, pretending to be you. And you used the thin man to keep watch on the mountain to inspect the corpse.

At that time, I returned to the temple, climbed down from the ladder you had set up on the wall in advance, found an excuse to enter the kitchen, such as forgetting the hatchet, and then killed the fat man Akechi. - There is a problem here that I am not clear about yet.

That is, how did you know that someone would be buried at the foot of the hillside in front of your temple yesterday? And it happened to be a boy about half the size of you?"

Mingkong smiled, as if his masterpiece was being appreciated by others. He slowly said: "A few days ago, a nearby village invited us to perform rituals for a dead child, because he was a child from a poor family and had no

Why did the abbot arrange for me to go there alone? I saw that the dead man was about the same height, short, fat and thin as me, so I came up with this idea."

Leng Yi sighed: "Now I understand why you chose to kill people when I, the magistrate, was in your temple. It turned out that you were afraid that the corpse would rot after waiting for too long and it would be difficult to disguise it. You had no choice but to do so."

"Then do you understand what method I used to kill them?"

Leng Yi smiled: "This is very simple. I thought of it when you first killed Chef Mingyuan."

"what is that?"

"Tofu!" Leng Yi said: "Frozen tofu that is frozen harder than a stone! - You can hide a piece of tofu in the snow outside the kitchen door, and it will be enough to freeze into a stone in just one night. You know

They would make tofu puffs in the morning and smash their heads with frozen tofu. Because there was tofu on the table and on the floor, you didn’t need to think of a way to dispose of the murder weapon. Just throw it on the ground in front of the stove and leave it there.

.As the temperature in the kitchen rises after lighting the fire, the ice of the frozen tofu will soon melt. Who would have thought that the murder weapon turned out to be a piece of soft tofu! The reason why I see through your trick is actually very simple, because

Although the piece of tofu is defrosted on the outside, it is not completely defrosted on the inside. You only need to observe carefully to see it."

Mingkong smiled, reluctantly: "You are so awesome!

Leng Yi said: "Now, do you need me to find a ladder for you to come down?"

"Of course!" Mingkong smiled: "Otherwise, how would I get down?"

Leng Yi turned to the abbot and said, "Would one of you go bring the ladder?"

He raised his eyebrows and said clearly, "I'll go!"

The ladder was quickly brought and set up on the Buddha.

Leng Yi said to the abbot and others: "You all should go out. This county has something to say to this child!"

The abbot hesitated for a moment and said: "Sir, this man killed three people in a row. He is very cruel. You cannot talk to him alone."

Leng Yi smiled and said: "He is only a half-grown child, so what can we do? Everyone, get out! This county has its own plans!"

The abbot and others hurriedly agreed and exited the hall. Leng Yi said to Zhuo Qiaoniang again: "You also go out."

"concubine……"

Leng Yi looked at her and shook his head slightly: "I want to talk to him alone, go out!" The words were full of majesty and did not allow for negotiation. Zhuo Qiaoniang had no choice but to nod and retreat.

Leng Yi locked the door of the main hall, turned around and said to Mingkong, "You can come down now."

Mingkong smiled and said, "Master, aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

"You won't run away." Leng Yi smiled, "I believe your crime is excusable."

Mingkong's expression dimmed and he said no more. He slowly walked down the ladder and stood still for a moment, as if he was making a very difficult decision.

Finally, he slowly turned around, looked at Leng Yi, with a cruel smile on his lips, walked up to Leng Yi, bent down, pulled out a sharp knife from his sleeve, and said to Leng Yi: "You shouldn't believe me, I

Killed three people, and as long as I have the chance, I will not let anyone here go, including you!"

Leng Yi's eyes showed surprise and horror: "You..., don't mess around! I am...the official of the imperial court!"

"If I kill you, you will be just a dead body! Who wants you to expose me? I can only kill you. If I want to blame you, I can only blame you for being too smart! No! You are not smart. You should not drive him out.

You are smart but you are fooled by your cleverness! If I kill you, I can hide and kill them one by one! - However, I will not kill your wife, she is the only person in the world who is good to me, I will

Spare her life. However, in order to prevent her from telling the truth, I will pretend to be a ghost and scare her crazy. This can be considered as a way to repay her."

"Mingkong, you..., you can no longer be stubborn...!"

Mingkong sneered and stabbed Leng Yi in the heart with the sharp knife in his hand!

when!

Mingkong felt that his sharp knife had pierced a hard object and could no longer penetrate it! He was stunned.

At this stunned moment, his wrist was firmly grasped by Leng Yi, his thumb clasped the pulse gate, and then he turned his wrist and pressed his elbow, twisting Mingkong's arm.

Mingkong's veins were blocked and one hand was paralyzed. Leng Yi easily took the sharp knife away from his hand.

Mingkong suddenly stretched out his left hand, grabbed the elbow of his restrained right arm, and pulled it down suddenly. Hearing a click, the elbow joint of his arm was dislocated! Out of control, he suddenly turned around, with the index and middle fingers of both hands,

Poke it into Leng Yi’s eyes!

Leng Yi never expected that Mingkong would use his own method of dislocating his joints to free himself from his grasp, and his counterattack was so fast! He could only let go of his dislocated arm and dodge his attack.

Although Mingkong used this method to escape Leng Yi's control, the severe pain from his dislocated arm almost made him faint.

He saw that Leng Yi had blocked his way. He took a few steps back and came to the altar table. He grabbed the candlestick on the altar table with his left hand and flicked the burning red candle off the tip.

Pointing at Leng Yi, he took a breath and said with a sad smile: "You drove them all out to avoid worries and capture me with all your strength! I was too stupid to realize that your martial arts is so good. - Jin

Bell jar! Iron cloth shirt, hehe, I admire you!"

Naturally, Leng Yi would not say that he was actually wearing a special steel bulletproof vest. He sighed and said: "After I guessed that you were the murderer, I knew that you had martial arts skills, and they were pretty good. So I was wary of you.

.”

"Liar! How do you know? I've never shown any skill!"

"The dead will tell me."

"The dead? You mean, the dead can talk?" Mingkong sneered.

"Of course the dead can talk!" Leng Yi said slowly, "As long as you pay attention, you can know a lot of things the dead tell you. For example, your martial arts, the dead told me with the wounds on his head. - Two heads of the dead.

The injuries to the back of the head are all depressed and comminuted fractures. Such a serious injury cannot be caused by a person falling backwards and hitting the bluestone floor by gravity, because it requires greater force to cause such an injury! Since it cannot be caused by one's own body weight,

That's only possible with a heavy blow from outside. And a serious injury like a comminuted depressed fracture is unlikely to occur even if an average adult man is hit hard with frozen tofu. What's more, you are only half an adult.

Child, so the only explanation is that you have martial arts!"

Mingkong was stunned and said with a wry smile: "It seems that the dead can really talk."

"Besides, if you don't have the skills, it would be impossible for a half-year-old child like you to dig out a frozen grave, pry open a few inches of coffin nails, and carry a body to a cliff so far in this cold winter month.

, and then throw it down. It is also impossible to climb up along the curtain, use a knife to dig out the eyes, ears and mouth of the Buddha with one hand, and then climb in the air to drill in. This kind of soft rope climbing and one-handed operation require strong strength.

His arm strength and skills are impossible for ordinary children to have."

"That's right, I didn't expect this flaw to be so fatal! How did you know that I was hiding in the belly of the Buddha?"

"Just now I have been observing the place where the Buddha was dug, and I found that a piece of dust on the cheek under the eye socket is missing. Although it is very shallow, I can still see that it was rubbed off when pedaling, so I guessed

Come, you step on the fat face slightly protruding under the eyes of the Buddha and get into the belly of the Buddha. - What better place to hide than in the belly of the Buddha? You can keep warm and come out quietly to kill people! Before the snowstorm stops.

, no one will come to fix it, and you have to complete your plan before the snowstorm!"
Chapter completed!
