The villagers spoke to each other for a long while, feeling extra worried.

Several others pointed at Mrs. Liu and scolded: "You didn't take good care of the child, let the child die at the hands of thieves, why come here to slander the princess now? How could the princess kill Zhicong? I think you are old-fashioned!"

There were also elders of the clan beside him, who comforted Gu Xiang in soft words: "Princess, don't be upset because of this bastard's words, there is really no need to waste words with such a bastard."

"The thief is so bold, we can't sit still."

The folks watched Li Zhicong fall to the ground miserably. This is the child they watched growing up, and it was like this, and everyone felt uncomfortable.

Mrs. Liu stood in the yard blankly, with her head bowed, her disheveled hair fell on her shoulders, and her eyes were loose.

Di Yahuai looked around, as soon as this happened, his first reaction was to suspect those thieves, he had just fought with those guys, if he didn't doubt them, who would he suspect?

Turning around, he felt something was wrong, but it was just a subtle feeling. He thought about his thoughts seriously, but couldn't think of anything.

Hua Mantao also frowned, with some suspicion in his eyes.

The two were hesitating, Gu Xiang walked over, bent down and gently turned Li Zhicong over, as soon as she made a move, the surrounding villagers all stepped forward to help, but Gu Xiang waved his hand and stopped: "Everyone, don't come here, don't come here. Destroy the scene."

Li Zhicong was lying flat on the ground, showing his face. People looked at him not far away, and they were startled, and several people screamed—"Whoa! '

Liu's whole body trembled, her head was firmly buried in her chest, her body trembled uncontrollably, and she whimpered, her voice was extremely hoarse.

This child was killed by a heavy blow on the face, half of his face was sunken, his eyes were protruding, staring wide open, as if he was staring at others, people couldn't bear to look at them, and didn't dare to look at them.Both Huamantao and Di Yahuai couldn't help turning their heads to avoid it.

"Hey!"

Many villagers couldn't help sighing.

This Li Zhicong was actually a beautiful child before his death. Although his brain was burnt out, that is, the heart of a five or six-year-old child, Mrs. Lu took good care of him, and his clothes were always clean and tidy. He had been in a mess, and he took advantage of his parents' advantages in appearance. He was handsome and upright, and he was considered quite a handsome boy in the village.

Now it is so miserable, how can everyone not feel uncomfortable after seeing it?
The elders of the clan arrived in a hurry at this time. Seeing such a scene, they felt apprehensive: "How could this be? Our Guzhuang is a good place, and there have been no human life lawsuits for many years. Now it's good, this child Zhicong If you die violently, the yamen will investigate and the reputation of the village will be ruined, isn't it going to affect the business of the village?"

A good living person will die as soon as he says he wants to die, but in the hearts of the unrelated neighbors, they still only think about whether it will affect themselves.

Di Yahuai frowned, coughed softly, hesitated, and saw Gu Xiang stepping forward to take a closer look.

Gu Xiang walked around several rooms of Li's house, as well as the kitchen. When he got to the kitchen, he stopped, looked at the leftovers covered on the stove, and sighed: "This fish is fried well."

After finishing speaking, she walked slowly to Li Zhicong's body and knelt down.

Di Yahuai stared blankly for a moment, her heart skipped a beat, the hand holding Huamantao's arm unconsciously exerted force, Huamantao hissed, and the two brothers looked at each other, seeing something unbelievable in each other's eyes... ... shocking.

Their princess's eyebrows and eyes seemed to be frozen, covered with a layer of frost, and her expression was extremely calm.

She is not afraid?
Di Yahuai secretly expressed his admiration.

From now on, he will never dare to bury those noble ladies in the capital. Who knows if these noble ladies will be like princesses, usually gentle and gentle, but in fact, each of them is a big shot who is still calm and calm after the collapse of Mount Tai. .

Gu Xiang didn't expect that she held back and didn't vomit.She is not a medical student, the only dead people she saw before time travel were her parents.

It was also the first time I encountered such a...scary scene after time travelling.

Gu Xiang is also very disgusted now, only the surging anger suppresses the disgust all of a sudden.

"It wasn't done by thieves."

Gu Xiang suddenly spoke.

The villagers' discussions stopped abruptly.

Everyone was a little surprised.

Di Ya choked in her arms, and the villagers all said that the murderer was a thief. Apart from the doubts in their hearts, they also rescued the princess.

Of course no one believed Liu's crazy words, but there is no storm without waves, the princess's people visited Li's house yesterday, this matter cannot be hidden from people.

The folks just didn't want the princess to be in any trouble, so they all agreed and put the matter on the thief.

It is true that those thieves went to Gu Zhuang to act wildly, and it is not wrong to think about it this time.

Unexpectedly, Her Royal Highness would refute such a sentence, and everyone fell silent for a while, feeling a little uneasy in their hearts.

If it wasn't done by thieves, could it be that it was done by people in the village?
Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment.

Gu Xiang sighed, carefully looked at the wound on Li Zhicong's face, stood up and looked around, then suddenly walked to the door, and picked up the big bronze lock on the door.

Holding the lock in his hand, he walked up to Li Zhicong, held up the lock for comparison, and Gu Xiang said: "This thing is a murder weapon."

Di Yahuai and Huamantao didn't care about the shock, they hurried forward to look at it, the corners of Di Yahuai's mouth twitched: "Princess, it must have been hit by a stone, right?"

The murder weapon was still rolling on the ground, it was a stone that is not common in the village.

Hua Mantao looked intently, then suddenly raised her head to stare at the lock in Gu Xiang's hand, and said anxiously: "I see... what the princess said is true."

The locks in Li Tiejiang's house are not ordinary. Although the head of the house is a blacksmith, he also learned some lock making skills when he was young. The lock on the door that is as big as a human head is the handicraft of Li Tiejiang when he was young. The lock is very well made. Exquisite, with many dark patterns carved on it.

"Everyone, please look, the serpentine shape between the eyebrows of the deceased is exactly the dark pattern on the lock." Huamantao straightened up, raised her breath and said loudly, "Everyone, please think about it, if that thief violently murdered people, how could he be killed?" Use this lock? Even stones are not right, they are well armed, and they should use knives."

Gu Xiang nodded and sighed: "The dark pattern is so complete, it means that someone took the bronze lock in the normally open state and smashed the deceased to death. The murderer may have been frightened afterward. Hide the traces."

She shook her head: "If it was really done by a thief, why bother?"

Before the words fell, all the villagers present were stunned.

Gu Xiang said quietly: "The murderer committed the crime standing on the steps, and the position is higher... The murderer we are looking for is half a head shorter than the deceased Li Zhicong, with one leg slightly longer and the other shorter. In the case of a murder, the first blow only scratched the cheek, but the deceased did not react and let the murderer smash him to death with the second blow."

Following Gu Xiang's words, all the villagers present felt chills down their spines and their minds were in turmoil.
