Xuanxue boss, she became rich in ancient times by selling houses

Chapter 186 Deadlock and the truth that is close at hand
Zhao Laosan wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

The main room was messed up.

He gnawed on the remaining half of the pancake and gurgled to the bottom corner of the table, it was dry and hard.

There are mountains of debris everywhere.

Look at this, it must have been a while, I haven't cleaned the house properly.

Go around the screen and turn into the inner room, where there is a charcoal brazier, which is much warmer.

The bedding was equally messy, but dry enough.

On the bed, a foolish and lunatic woman hugged the bedpost, muttering something.

"do not come"

"I didn't kill you"

It can be vaguely seen that the woman's face is somewhat pretty, although she is nearly fifty years old, she still has a charm.

This is Zhao Laosan's original wife, Xu Niang.

"Miss Gu, what do you think?"

Qin Feng asked bluntly.

He knew that Gu Xixi knew some medical skills.

Gu Xixi frowned, stepped forward to feel Xu Niang's pulse.

however--

Seeing her, Xu Niang rushed up like crazy, about to grab Gu Xixi's neck.

"Why are you still haunted!"

She widened her eyes, as if seeing something frightening.

Before that Xu Niang met Gu Xixi, Qin Feng hit her on the back of the head with a knife, causing her to fall asleep.

"Sister Xu," Zhao Laosan called out hastily.

The worry on his face didn't seem fake, it was real.

Gu Xixi couldn't help a small smile from the corner of her mouth.

"Miss Gu, what are you laughing at?" A Si asked puzzled.

"It seems that Zhao Laosan and his wife are like this. They are over fifty and have no children, but they still have a good relationship in every possible way."

"It's really hard to see." Gu Xixi explained softly.

Not much to say, she laid the fainted Xu Niang flat on the bed, and felt her pulse again.

In the process of feeling the pulse, Gu Xixi put away the smile on her face, and her expression gradually became serious.

After about ten breaths, Gu Xixi retracted the hand that was stretched out to feel the pulse.

Zhao Laosan saw Gu Xixi following a few officials, and saw her helping Xu Niang to feel her pulse, how could he not remember it right now?

"Little lady, how is my wife?" He frowned and asked with concern.

Gu Xixi sighed, "Mrs. Zun, this is madness caused by fright, and she needs to calm down and cultivate her character."

"As for whether it can be cured, it is up to fate."

"There's no need to prescribe prescriptions or anything, just be careful not to frighten her."

Zhao Laosan repeatedly bowed his head and nodded, "Okay, thank you little lady."

Gu Xixi winked at Qin Feng and the others, and walked out first.

Qin Feng, A Si and Chang He followed closely behind.

"Officer, I'll see you off." Zhao Laosan bowed and bowed until he sent the four of them to the gate of the house.

"Miss Gu, since Zhao Laosan and his wife Xu Niang have no serious problems, what should we investigate next?"

A Si scratched the back of his head and asked puzzledly.

According to him, the case was the same as what they found before, and here it was at an impasse again.

This is an unsolved case.

Thinking of the soul-suppressing tower, Ah Si felt more and more that the people involved in this case might really not be human.

Perhaps it was to see through what Ah Si was thinking.

Gu Xixi glanced at him with a half-smile, then said:
"Don't worry, this case is not so evil."

"Hu Chou, it's a human being." She said firmly.

Ever since he walked out of Zhao Laosan's house, Qin Feng has been frowning.

"Since we are human, we can always find some clues."

"A Si, Chang He, the two of you should go back to the government office now, and send more people to visit Yanzhou City. Let's see if anyone has lost a woman in recent days."

Gu Xixi shook her head aside.

"It's useless, that Hu Si is probably not from Yanzhou City."

Qin Feng and others all looked at Gu Xixi.

"I don't know if Qin Tutou has ever heard about the pian's wife?"

Qin Feng shook his head, he had only heard of pawning, so where did the pawning wife come from?

He looked at Ah Si and Chang He who were on the side, and they both shook their heads.

Neither have they heard of it.

Gu Xixi let out a long sigh, and told the three of them about the origin of the pawn wife.

This is also from the memory of the original body.

In Daniu Village, pawning a wife is a rare and common thing.

It seems that Qin Feng, A Si and the others have no worries about food and clothing, it is hard to imagine what those poor people will do to eat.

Poor families will send their wives to wealthy families who have nothing to give, and borrow children from that family.

It is quite similar to the "surrogacy" in Gu Xixi's previous world.

Hearing what Gu Xixi said, Qin Feng and the others were greatly shocked.

"There are still such things!" Ah Si sighed.

Qin Feng held his chin, thought about his conjecture, "So Miss Gu is suspicious, and Hu Silk is Hu Laosan's pawn concubine?"

Gu Xixi nodded, "There is a guess."

"When I took Xu Niang's pulse just now, I found that her pulse was not an ordinary frightened pulse."

"The tense and tense feeling on the right foot will extend to the left with the deepening of the fear, as if the tension is like running away in panic."

"The shape of the inner side of the right chi vein is slightly concave, and the local tissue is suddenly soft and lacks a sense of reality, so it appears timid."

"This shouldn't be the pulse that a crazy person should have."

"However, as you can see, Xu Niang is crazy."

"So, she has a guilty conscience, is tortured day and night, and falls into madness."

Gu Xixi said with a hammer.

"Hu Chou was killed by her, and the child who was not yet full moon was also killed by her."

"Let me ask, is there any mother in this world who would be willing to do something to her own son who was born in October?"

Gu Xixi talked a lot in a series.

"But Miss Gu, these are just speculations."

"To convict, these alone are far from enough." Ah Si said with a sigh.

If it was so easy, it would be sure that Zhao Laosan's wife Xu Niang killed the person, and their government would have arrested and interrogated him long ago.

But for now, the case will remain unsolved.

It is because there is no evidence.

"Brother Qin said just now, why don't we investigate every household?"

"The Husi on the left and right should always be from the boundary of Yanzhou City, and there will be some clues."

Among the three, Chang He is not as sharp as Qin Feng, nor as quick-spoken as Ah Si.

For the most part, he is a silent listener.

Silently do everything that is told to him.

Gu Xixi still shook her head, denying him.

"There is no need for such trouble."

"As long as you push down the soul tower on the well, and then send someone down to salvage the corpse, everything will be resolved."

Several people's eyes lit up.

Yes.

This case was not as complicated as it appeared on the surface.

The so-called revenge of the vixen's vengeful soul is just one-sided rhetoric of a Taoist who knows how to do things.

And this Taoist priest was invited back by Zhao Laosan.

No one went down to the well to see it, and they all confirmed that there were only innocent souls and no corpses in the well based on the Taoist's one-sided words.

Several people suddenly realized that the point that was clearly in front of them but was ignored.

Zhao Laosan and his original wife, Xu Niang, were deeply in love with each other.

If Xu Niang is the real culprit, he will definitely pretend to protect her.
