Dali Temple Conspiracy Records

Chapter 50 Three Visits to the Temple
Li Guan stepped into the main entrance of the mountain temple again, and the sun was already westward again.Visited three times - not counting sneaking in, he also brought a group of Yamen servants from Hu County.

"It seems that you are not an ordinary scholar. So many people want to stay in this small temple like Laoshen?" The old woman said sarcastically.

With Li Quan's temperament, he would not reply and sarcasm, but Wei Dacheng, the captain of Huxian County who accompanied him, shouted: "Don't be rude! This is Mr. Li Sizhi from Dali Temple! Mr. Li suspected that there was a murder case. The county captain is going to search this temple now!"

"Murder?" The old woman's dim eyes flashed, and her hoarse voice suddenly became sharper, "I, an old country woman, have never heard of an official from Dali Temple! You are going to rummage around, what have you to do with robbers?" Difference?" At the end, she showed a bit of sternness.

"Hey, this old woman!" Wei Dacheng raised his black eyebrows, "Is the temple your private property? After all, you are just a guest, don't bother me here!"

As soon as he waved his hand, a group of yamen servants ignored the old woman's obstruction and entered in a file, and immediately searched around the temple.Of course, the main goal is very clear, which is the main house kang.Li Quan and the others were waiting in the courtyard, and after a while, they heard the sound of nausea in the house one after another, and a strong rancid smell wafted from the house.

Wei Dacheng almost threw up too.Because Murong Ke wanted to maintain his posture in front of outsiders, he didn't say much, but he tightly covered his mouth and nose, holding his breath until his face turned purple.He gave Bai Sanxiu a hard look, the meaning was self-evident - why didn't he remind him in advance?

The old woman was guarded by a yamen servant. Although she couldn't see anything on her face, panic was suppressed in her gloomy expression.When the yamen servants carried out the two corpses, she was already short of breath, but when she saw Li Guan's unsurprised expression, she suddenly realized again.

"It turns out that you, an adult, also do small things! I said that the smell in the room suddenly became stronger today..."

"Big, vomit! Bold! vomit..."

Wei Dacheng was so smoked that he couldn't speak anymore, Li Quan raised his hand to let him rest, and spoke calmly, with a steady and forceful voice: "That white bone is short in stature and has rickets, so it should be the real temple blessing, right? Given the age, I think she's been dead for years."

The old woman stopped talking.

"And this rotting corpse is a young woman with six toes on her right foot. I'm afraid it is the abandoned baby Sun Xiaoling adopted in the temple 20 years ago, right?"

The old woman still did not speak.

Li Guan continued to say clearly: "Sun Xiaoling's fatal injury was at the back of the head. The scalp was not torn seriously, and the wound was not obvious. He should have died from a fall. Yushi Murong received an inspection from Wannian County in the afternoon. As a result, Sun Xiaoling claimed to go back to her natal family to visit relatives six days ago, but she did go out of the city gate. She probably wanted to go back to the mountain temple to have a look. As a result, for some reason, the two of you may have clashed and caused a tragedy. In order to hide it, you Hide her in the cellar."

"I...just missed." After a long silence, the old woman finally spoke, her voice hoarse and sad than usual. "I didn't want to hurt her. I wanted to cook sweet porridge for her, her favorite food...but she, she..."

"But she found out your secret."

Li Quan explained the cause of the tragedy for her, and his calm and steady voice suddenly seemed a little cruel.The old woman trembled violently, her face gradually showed panic, and she seemed to be begging a little bit, hoping that Li Quan would stop talking, but he didn't stop.

"You have been pretending to be Lao Miaozhu, and you are also the one who adopted her 20 years ago."
