Chapter 37 Lead the snake out of the hole
The layout of Duke Rongguo's mansion pays attention to the four words "hiding wind and gathering energy". Among them, Guangling Hall is located in the center of the entire mansion. Now, someone has buried such filthy things. It is obvious that someone wants to steal Huo. Family luck.

Mr. Huo's face was condensed, and he glanced around in front of everyone with a stressed look, and said: "This thing was found from the boss's yard -"

As soon as these words came out, the people below were in an uproar. They did not expect that this thing was buried in the house. They immediately felt a chill down their spines and threatened to find the murderer.

Among them, Ms. Qin was the most ardent. Her eyes were all black and blue, and it was obvious that she had not rested for several days. She looked at Mr. Huo and said sincerely: "There have indeed been some rumors in the house in the past few days. I originally thought that the house There are rumors from people up and down, but Jiuge said she saw that kind of thing with her own eyes."

"Jiuge has already told me about this matter." Mr. Huo interrupted her, "I suspect that this thing is the cause of the trouble!"

Mr. Huo pointed at the thing underground and said with disgust. Although it has not yet been confirmed that the murder of Dafang's family seems to be related to this thing, he has now regarded it as evidence that someone deliberately murdered him.

Seeing that the old man had already said this, Qin naturally did not dare to continue, so she could only shut her mouth silently.

Although she didn't know where this thing came from, and whether it was really related to Huo Jiuge's ghost sighting, she knew that this time the old man was on her side, and there was nothing she could do to her.

Huo Ren stood up at this time and said: "Father, I think these things were just deliberately buried in my eldest brother's yard to cause us panic. Otherwise, why would they be found out at this time after so many years?"

He advised Mr. Huo not to get too hurt in this matter. He would definitely find the murderer and bring him to justice.

But unexpectedly, his words completely angered Mr. Huo.

"The boss died inexplicably when he led the army on an expedition. Even his wife was killed on the road. Can you guarantee that there is no connection between these things? I think you have lived a lot of lives in Ansheng these years, and you have long forgotten Who has earned this family fortune!" Mr. Huo was furious and even began to doubt the entire second house.

Although Mr. Huo was an old-fashioned man, he had never been so angry before, and everyone shuddered.

"Father, forgive me! I just want you to take care of yourself, but I definitely have no intention of murdering my elder brother!" Huo Ren was so frightened that he immediately knelt down. His wife, concubines and children behind him also knelt in front of Mr. Huo and Huo Jiuge. .

"Humph!" Mr. Huo looked at the people kneeling on the floor, angrily threw down his sleeves, then turned around and stopped looking at them, nor did he ask them to get up.

"Grandpa, calm down, I think what the second uncle said is true." Huo Jiuge said, "How could something happen to my father and mother Fuze Shen because of these two scarecrows? There must be someone behind all this. , the most important thing now is to catch the person behind it, rather than letting us separate because of these two things."

This is the first time that Huo Jiuge speaks for the second roommate of the Huo family, and it is also about his parents. This makes people wonder whether she is really stupid or has other agendas.

In fact, what she values ​​​​is Huo Ren's identity as Yushi's deputy. If he helps to find the person with the snake tattoo on his hand, it will definitely be faster than searching for him.

And more importantly, she suspected that her mother's death had something to do with her second wife. She lured the snake out of the hole to let them know that she was investigating what happened back then. In order not to expose her identity, the other party would definitely Take action again.

Although her move was risky, it was the best way to quickly identify the murderer.After listening to her words, Mr. Huo recovered from his anger. He first asked Huo Ren to stand up and asked what his plans were now.

"I have been fighting against witchcraft and Gu in the past dynasties. I guess there are not many people in the world who know this kind of evil. Why don't we start from the source?" He replied respectfully.

Mr. Huo listened to his words and fell into deep thought for a while. After a while, he said: "No, it seems that these two things have been buried underground for a long time. It has been so long since something happened to me." , it would be very difficult to re-investigate the case."

"And if others find out that my Huo family has practiced witchcraft, won't it become a joke to the entire capital?" Mr. Huo considered the Huo family's face in the capital in the future, so he did not support Huo Ren's proposal.

"Then according to father's opinion, how should we investigate?"

Mr. Huo took out a portrait from his arms, and what was painted on it was a snake-shaped tattoo. Huo Jiuge said that this was the person her mother was specifically looking for in her dream.

Mr. Huo handed the portrait to Huo Ren and said, "If you find the person with this tattoo, it is related to the death of his boss's wife."

"Didn't my sister-in-law die at the hands of the robbers?" Huo Ren looked at the pattern on the portrait and wondered: "And the bandits in Qingfeng Village have been wiped out long ago, and this case has been closed for many years."

As soon as Shen, who was the wife of Yipin Gaoming, was killed, the imperial court sent troops to wipe out the bandits' den. How could a man with a snake-shaped tattoo appear now?

All this is due to the original owner being too frightened and temporarily losing this cruel memory. Since Huo Jiuge took over this body, he has frequently dreamed of a man with a snake-shaped tattoo on his hand holding an embroidered spring. Knife, killed his mother in front of her.

Everything that happened in the dream was very real, so as soon as she woke up, she drew this pattern according to the scene in the dream.

Mr. Huo didn't explain so much. He just asked Huo Ren to find this person about the theft in his house. He didn't say anything else.

Seeing that his father had said so, Huo Ren didn't ask further questions. After folding the portrait, he put it in his arms.

Then the old man looked at Mrs. Qin and said, "I don't want to hear any rumors about my family. You have been working hard these past few days."

Although she didn't know what the rumor he was referring to specifically, Qin still agreed.

Later, Mr. Huo added: "Go and invite Taoist Wang to me and let him solve these two things by himself. Don't delay the business later!"

The imperial examination was coming soon, and he was afraid that such filthy things would affect the reputation of the descendants of the Huo family.

"Yes." Mrs. Qin bowed and accepted the errand. When she lowered her head, she couldn't help but reveal an evil smile. Her chance had come again. This time Huo Jiuge would peel off his skin even if he didn't die!
