Records of the Lost Cases of Helaitang in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 146 The Unforgettable

"Sure enough, first your silk handkerchief was found by Zhuang Ding that night, and the note was found the next morning. In this way, the story you created by yourself of falling into the water after attending an appointment at Sanying Bridge yesterday has been basically successful. Because there is a reward, The clothes you threw into the river were gradually found by farmers downstream, which further proves the fact that you fell into the water. By this time, you had already returned to Li's house, and you just had to claim to be sick and couldn't come out."

"The search was fruitless. On the second night, probably in the early morning of the third day, I went to He Xiangu's place to check on Meng. When He Xiangu was possessed, I heard a voice that looked exactly like yours and a familiar tone. I really believed it. I think we are already separated from each other. From the beginning to the end, I only saw Liu Gu. The rest, He Xiangu, Xiaomei, and Xue, all of them were probably performed by Liu Gu's ventriloquism."

"At this point, the campaign for Brother Yuntai's drowning has been successful. It is not difficult to imagine that in a few days, I will leave Xishan Island by boat and return to the academy with the memory of my old friend, announcing to all my old acquaintances that Huang Yuntai has passed away. Once you have seen it with your own eyes and heard it with your own ears, you will no longer have any doubts.”

"But fate is not as good as man. It snowed heavily in the early morning of Guan Meng's day. The snow was so heavy that the passenger ships in Xishan were stopped. I had to go back to Wanhuzhuang. Huang Yongning treated me very kindly. , almost go in and out together, eat together, which makes your murder plan risky. Huang Yongning has high martial arts skills and a very sensitive mind. If you hadn't faked his death to make him relax his vigilance, it would be really difficult to get rid of him. If this time Because if I get in the way and fail, there will be no next chance, so your helpers in Wanhu Village tried their best to hint and express that I should leave quickly."

"Shi Xiaomei and the others only have three days to take action. On the first day of the wedding ceremony, Yinfeng and Shi Xiaomei discussed in the lotus pond what happened tonight at the ancestral hall. I always thought it was Mr. Huang Er who made a secret appointment with Huang Yongning to meet at the ancestral hall at night to take the opportunity to get rid of him. Huang Yongning, this is actually a plan of killing two birds with one stone by your accomplices in the village. Shi Xiaomei brought a message to Huang Yongning, while Yinfeng went to tell Mr. Huang that the reason why the order was Xiaomei Shi - Huang Yongning, Yinfeng - Mr. Huang is because that Before dinner day and night, I heard Huang Yongning getting angry. Later, Uncle Yan told me that Huang Yongning fell in love with Yinfeng. He wanted Yinfeng to be his little wife, but Yinfeng was unwilling. Under such circumstances, Yinfeng should not have Reasons will come to Huang Yongning."

Huang Yuntai's face changed slightly and his fists were clenched tightly.

"Both Huang Yongning and Mr. Huang Er thought that they were the one dating each other. Huang Yongning relied on his excellent martial arts skills and did not take Mr. Huang seriously. Mr. Huang also thought that he was a martial artist and had nothing to fear."

"Why do you want to say it in the ancestral hall? Because it is the "Vajra Prajna Sutra" written by Bai Xiangshan and sent to Baoshan Temple. Master Huang Er will soon be the president of the Dongting Chamber of Commerce. According to the old practice, the master of the Huang family of Wanhuzhuang will serve as the chairman of the Dongting Chamber of Commerce. The leader wants to bring the "Vajra Prajna Sutra" handwritten by Bai Xiangshan out of Baoshan Temple and put it on display at the Dongting Chamber of Commerce for a month to pray for the people of Xishan. Mr. Huang Er is eager to use the "Vajra Prajna Sutra" to earn him face. , but the scroll has been taken away from Baoshan Temple by Huang Yongning. The "Vajra Prajna Sutra" is actually the private property of the Huang family's first wife, Mrs. Fang. It is not easy for Mr. Huang to ask for it from Huang Yongning on the stage, but to talk about it in the ancestral hall. , it is a suitable place.”

"This night, Shi Xiaomei and the others planned a perfect plan. Huang Yongning must die tonight, but I, an ignorant person, rushed into the ancestral hall with passion. I saw a white shadow floating on the beam at the corner door of the ancestral hall. I just thought it was a dazzle. Suspicion came from the dark side. Now that I knew the whole story, I realized that it should be Shi Xiaomei and his group. They took advantage of the smell of incense and candles in the ancestral hall, either poisoned or mixed with incense, to get rid of Huang Yongning and put the blame on Mr. Huang, at worst, can blame Miss Yaoguang's blood curse on the eldest son's sect."

"But I just broke in and escaped from the ancestral hall with Huang Yongning. Shi Xiaomei's plan fell through." "They thought this was not possible. I was in the way. They only had three days and they had already wasted one day. . Shi Xiaomei has been working as a maid in the Huang family for a short time, but she obviously has a way of dealing with children. She asked Huang Xiaoba to come to me to play games to catch birds, and deliberately said that Wanhuzhuang was a trap. It was so successful that it made me suspicious and discouraged. Leng, I don’t want to care about what’s going on here.”

"The next day I came to Huang Yongning to ask what Mr. Huang Er wanted from him, but because I was determined not to meddle in other people's business, I didn't go to him. When the sound of silk and bamboo playing in the dojo in the carved hall started, I I immediately went to the altar where the ritual ceremony was held to worship Brother Yuntai. At this time, only two of the three Taoist priests were there, and none of the Huang family members had come yet."

"I guess that the time when Huang Yongning was killed was between the early morning of the next day and when I entered the Diaohua Building. After Shi Xiaomei and the others took care of Huang Yongning, they started to play."

"When I first arrived at Diaohua Building, Lao Shi and Xuan Stork were playing silk and bamboo, but Ahuren was not there. It was probably him and Shi Xiaomei who went to hide Huang Yongning's body. Maybe Huang Yongning was still in a coma at this time, and they were doing the dojo. Similarly, incense candles have a strong smell, which is easy to poison and incense. It is snowing heavily and it is still early in the day. No one will pass by the rockery cave near the Diaohua Building, the stone edge of the Taihu Lake in the lotus pond, or the pavilion. They just need to throw people away. There, within a quarter of an hour, it would be completely white and difficult to recognize."

"But I think there are still risks in this. The risk must be minimized. Huang Yongning cannot go out after entering the Diaohua Building. The body should be placed in the Diaohua Building, maybe under the incense table, or maybe in the Taoist priests' debris pile , after just over an hour, the Huang family went to have a feast, and Shi Xiaomei and the others escaped in a carriage."

"Since Huang Yongning is dead, I have to find a reason for him. That is Miss Yaoguang's curse. Xianyun Tower has appeared and arranged it. This trick is very effective against the people of Wanhu Village, but there is one more person who should have been here long ago. I didn't believe it at all when I left, but I realized that this was a sign that the murderer was going to strike again. In the end, I found Huang Yongning who had turned into a snowman at Sanying Bridge, and found the Yuxu Token and found Yuxu Palace."

"Before the incense taught by Bai Yuan knocked me unconscious, I thought of a sentence: "Dead people cannot speak." "Why am I so close to the truth?"

"When I woke up on the island in Taihu Lake, I already understood that Shi Xiaomei and the others did not kill me to silence me despite the risk of being exposed, because you gave your helper in Wanhu Village, the eldest sister of the Huang family, or the mastermind Huang Yunting, you are Her helper, you told her a bottom line, you can't take my life no matter what, the Shi family father and daughter, Yin Feng, brother Bingsheng, and Uncle Yan must abide by this bottom line."
