I went ashore by weaving straw shoes and became a master craftsman

At noon the next day, food was delivered to the camp one after another, and all the soldiers from the [-] counties were unharmed. They were not lost, but due to lack of energy and mutual complaints, they did not dare to continue climbing to the cliff after dark.

But Shi Ren died.

After this guy made a mistake, he was sent out to look for someone, but he didn't return. In the middle of the night, Chen Bing and Cao Shi sent someone to look for Shi Ren. After tossing until dawn, they found the body from a steep slope.

With bad luck, Chen Cheng failed to achieve his goal of faking the sheep.According to his plan, he told everyone to be careful of thorns this morning, because a sheep could not move after being stabbed by a kind of thorns, so the sheep and the poisonous thorns on its feet had to be transported to the camp to remind everyone Beware the shooters.

It is very laborious to carry the sheep cart up the mountain, and it needs to be rotated constantly, but when we arrive at the camp, the thorns and thorns are still on the sheep's feet, and no one has touched them.

"Does this mean... that only Shi Ren wanted to harm the king's officials, and no one else was involved?" Chen Cheng shook his head and sighed, not daring to give an answer when he asked this question.Thorns and thorns are actually very common, but poison is rare.From the fact that there are only two poisonous thorns, it can be seen that this poison is difficult to control. Shi Ren is an ordinary county soldier and cannot leave the barracks easily. Where did he get the poison?
Xie Yi: "We plan for the worst, and Shi Ren is an accomplice. Looking at the bright side, not every spy is as calm as Han Huang."

Whether Shi Ren fell to his death by himself will be checked after he is released.Xie Yi borrowed [-] archer soldiers and asked all the county soldiers to gather in an open space. The ground here has many potholes, and it is the field where the archer soldiers practice throwing stones over distance.

Xie Yi, Chen Cheng, and Li Gao stood in the middle of the front, with several baskets of thin sticks in front of them.

Chen Cheng shouted: "Shi Ren was murdered! Quiet, the murderer is among you! If you don't find out, there will be a second or third victim. And in the past two days, some people have directed their dissatisfaction at the king's officials , some people even slack off and disobeyed military orders, delaying everyone’s food delivery time! In order to restore the cleanliness of the barracks in our county, and find out the criminals who harmed human lives, now..."

If you want to find out the spy as soon as possible, you can't investigate it on the basis that someone deliberately harmed Wang Ge, that will make the county soldiers even more confused.

Xie Yi's method is to let each county soldier recall, from the time he received the food delivery mission, to today, who has had different contacts and conversations with them than usual.For example, those who hadn’t talked much before began to take the initiative to chat; they often lead the topic to the withdrawal of the county barracks and will be replaced by the Chinese army; The king's official.

Another thing is that when the car breaks down or gets stuck in the mud during the transportation of grain, whoever likes to make a fire, whoever starts the topic first, blames the car builder.

Anyone who thinks of any abnormal behavior must put down a stick in front of the other party.When letting go, explain the evidence in front of everyone.

A total of two rounds are carried out, in case someone forgets and can be supplemented.

After Bing Cao Shi finished explaining the rules, Li Gao threatened in a cold voice: "Those who commit crimes do not dare to show evil to others, and often pretend to be loyal, weak and cowardly people, so as to approach you, lower your vigilance, and encourage you to become them." The poison on the blade stabs at your real comrades! If you don’t want to become a dead body, don’t want to continue to be used, and cause your family to be implicated by you, let’s work together to find out the murderer! Zhao Li, you’re the first, and then horizontal Step forward one by one."

Zhao Li shivered when he was called by his name, and he still dare not look in the direction of Shi Ren's corpse.When you come to the basket, how many sticks do you take?Also, there are so many archers around with bows, are criminals caught and shot directly?Does what he did count as "committing a crime"?

Chen Cheng reprimanded: "If you take too much and put it back, if you don't have enough, come back to get it, what's the point of wasting!"

"Yes." Zhao Li clasped his hands together, and when he turned around, the expressions of the soldiers in the rear changed.No one is stupid, Zhao Li must be the most suspected one, what does this guy mean by holding so many sticks?Wouldn't it be worth it to untie a hand with him?

The expressions of all the soldiers fell into Chen Cheng's eyes, and he was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke.

Xie Yi said slowly: "Think about your original intention when you entered the barracks, think about it, you are soldiers, you are the court's knives, don't be confused and become the murderer's knives."

Zhao Li's heart calmed down a little, and the second person in the row, Song Nian, put a stick under his feet, and he just squatted down and said, "Before accepting the task of transporting grain, Song Shichang didn't take the initiative to talk to me..."

Song Nian was anxious: "Why didn't you say that?"

Whoosh!An arrow pierced three inches from his feet.

Even Zhao Li was frightened and sat down.

The archery soldier took another arrow from the arrow grate.

Really shoot? !Chen Cheng couldn't bear to look at Xie Yi, and with the utmost majesty, he glanced at the soldiers: "If anyone interrupts, I won't scare you! Zhao Li, keep talking!"

Zhao Li picked up the scattered sticks again, stood up, and said in a trembling voice, "Song Shichang, I have talked to you before, but it was I who told you, and you never told me first. You said The county barracks are almost gone, mocking me for coming from a poor country, and I have to go back to a poor country..."

Zhao Li placed the second firestick at the feet of Wei Shou, the fourth person in the row. "You were afraid of me at first, since I was kicked back to the barracks by that bastard...by the king's official, you have been wrong. You have repeatedly talked about me openly and secretly, saying that I have returned and humiliated in Duyi County. You still... ..."

The third stick is placed on the fifth person in the horizontal row. "Buchang, it was you who kept pushing our grain cart on purpose to keep the wheels in place."

"You put it..." Bu Chang opened his mouth wide and lowered his head, looking at his left leg.It turned out that as soon as he opened his mouth, arrows were shot from opposite directions, the arrows pierced through his waist, and the pointed end of the arrow pierced into his trousers, but fortunately it was deflected and did not pierce the flesh.

The archer made a gesture of apology to the archer from a distance.

Next, according to what Zhao Li said, no one dared to refute.After he put the remaining sticks back into the basket and returned to his place, Li Gao shouted: "From the second person onwards, you can refute the words of your predecessors, and you can also testify for others. Also, although Shi Ren is dead, he is guilty. It is also unforgivable, and he has to tell what is abnormal. Speed ​​up." After speaking, he pointed to Song Nian.

Song Nian only took two firewood sticks, strode up to Zhao Lina, and said in a loud voice: "I remembered, Shi Ren was by your side that day, he is my fellow countryman, I felt sorry for his bad luck with you, so I went Advise him, tell you something along the way. You said that I mocked you for coming from and going back to the poor country, but at the end I also said 'me too'! It is your inferiority complex that thinks good words into ridicule. "

Zhao Liqi's facial features were deformed.

However, what Song Nian did next was unexpected. He didn't put a firewood stick under Zhao Li's feet, but went to Shi Ren's body and put one down. Later, when I met you several times when I was relieved, you were all downcast, and led me to ask you, and then said that Master Wang, relying on his status as the chief official, how could he despise your guards..."

Song Nian went to the third row again, put another stick at the foot of the corps leader Liu Shun, and said, "Although Shi Ren belongs to Zhao Linawu, he has the closest relationship with you. I paid attention to you several times during the food delivery." , no matter what Shi Ren complains, you must be among the people who agree!" (End of this chapter)
