Thinking of this, Hwarang didn't care to listen to what Ouyang Xiu had to say, and hurriedly pushed away everyone and ran to Shen Hongxing's room. Seeing that Hwarang suddenly ran to Shen Hongxing's room, they were very strange, so they quickly followed in.

After everyone rushed into Shen Hongxing's room, they were speechless in surprise, because in Shen Hongxing's room, a corpse was lying there with its tongue sticking out, looking extremely horrifying.

After Hwarang laid the body down, he said to everyone, "It's Shen Hongxing!"

Everyone has already guessed this, but who wants to kill Shen Hongxing, how could Shen Hongxing be killed?

Things are getting blurry.

Because it was late, Hwarang was unable to conduct a detailed autopsy, and could only see that there was a strangle mark on Shen Hongxing's neck, but whether this strangle mark was a fatal injury was still uncertain, and he could only make a decision after dawn.

And at this time, Shen Cherry was crying so hard that she couldn't make a sound.

After clearing people out of Shen Hongxing's room, Ouyang Xiu stood outside Shen Hongxing's door and glared at the two yamen servants, "You two are guarding Monk Xuanming, why did you let him run away?"

The two yamen servants were very nervous, and after hesitating for a long time, they finally answered: "The two of us were originally guarding Monk Xuanming, but in the middle of the night, we heard snoring from inside the house, and thought that Monk Xuanming was asleep, so we were a little negligent. , just at this time, we suddenly heard a strange sound from somewhere, we thought something happened again, so we went to have a look, it turned out that we were suspicious, there was nothing strange, we went back to Xuanming After going outside the abbot’s house, he suddenly couldn’t hear the snoring, and felt very puzzled, so he opened the door to check, only to find that Monk Xuanming had disappeared.”

After listening to the words of the two yamen servants, Ouyang Xiu wanted to blame them, but he really didn't know what to say, so he had to give up in the end. The monk Xuanming had already fled, and if he wanted to catch him, he had to go to sea to catch the documents.

Just thinking of this, Ouyang Xiu suddenly realized, was Shen Hongxing killed by Monk Xuanming?

When Ouyang Xiu articulated his question, Hua Lang shook his head and said, "It's impossible, but from the skin changes on Shen Hongxing's body, she should have been killed an hour ago, and Monk Xuanming hadn't escaped at that time!"

After listening to Hualang's words, everyone suddenly felt terrible. In this small Jinchan Temple, there was such a crazy murderer. He killed Li Xiangyun and then Shen Hongxing. In just a few days, Three people have been killed in Jinchan Temple, but they only found one murderer.

Where is the murderer who killed Li Xiangyun and Shen Hongxing?

Was the murderer who killed them both the same person?

What was the motive for killing them?

Hwarang has been thinking about these issues. He feels that it is impossible for a person to be killed for no reason. There must be a reason for the murderer to kill them, but what is the reason?

For money?

Shen Sanqian was very rich, and after his death the money belonged to Li Xiangyun, then after Li Xiangyun died, the money belonged to both Shen Hongxing and Shen Yingying, but what if Shen Hongxing died?

All the money fell into Shen Yingying's hands, but what if Shen Yingying was killed?

Hwarang thought about these issues carefully, and after he felt that he had figured it out, he told Ouyang Xiu and Bao Zheng. After hearing what Hwarang said, Ouyang Xiu and Bao Zheng immediately made suggestions.

Ouyang Xiu said: "If the murderer is Shen Cherry, we must conduct a close investigation on her to see if she killed someone tonight, and whether she killed Li Xiangyun."

As soon as Ouyang Xiu finished speaking, Yin Wucuo said first: "Shen Cherry had a motive to kill Li Xiangyun. Didn't Li Xiangyun's two maids say that Li Xiangyun is domineering? The same is true for her two daughters. If it is for freedom, she is extremely cruel." It is possible to kill Li Xiangyun."

At this time, Bao Zheng interjected: "Yin Wucuo is right, but if Shen Yingying is also killed, so we must figure out, if Shen Yingying is also killed, who will get Shen Sanqian's property. "

After some discussion, everyone decided to send someone to Shen's house after dawn to find out who would get the property of Shen's family after Shen Yingting's death, and they called Shen Yingting to ask some questions.

It was already past midnight and the rain was still falling. After everyone had made a decision, they went back to rest. Of course, Shen Hongxing's body must be taken care of. In addition, Hua Lang asked two more yamen servants to guard the courtyard where the people lived. .

The next day when the weather was fine, Ouyang Xiu ordered his people to rush to the capital to issue the sea arrest document for the arrest of Abbot Xuanming, and then sent people to investigate Shen Sanqian's situation. Of course, this situation included the death of Shen Sanqian and the inheritance of the Shen family's property. things.

When this order was given, Hwarang was examining the corpse. He carefully examined the neck of the deceased, but found nothing unusual there. In other words, the murderer strangled Shen Hongxing to death with a rope, but the strangle marks were very shallow. , indicating that the rope is not a very common rope, it may be just a piece of cloth.

After the inspection, Hwarang asked people to search the temple to see if they could find anything strange that might strangle someone.

After finishing the order, they called Shen Cherry over.

Suffering two blows in a row, Shen Cherry's complexion looked very bad, and she was a little haggard. After she met Ouyang Xiu and others, she even seldom spoke.

For such a woman, Ouyang Xiu really couldn't say anything serious, so he had to cast his eyes on Hwarang in the end. Hwarang has never been emotional when it comes to murder cases, so he was not polite at all, and asked: "Last night, what did you do with Shen Hongxing?" After we parted, did we see her again?"

Shen Cherry shook her head: "After dinner, we went back to our rooms to rest, and we never saw her again."

"Then did you notice anything unusual about your sister yesterday?"

"No, because of the current killing, she is in a bad mood and has no appetite. After eating a little something, she went back to the room, and so did I!"

"Who do you think would kill your mother and your sister?"

Regarding this question from Hwarang, Shen Cherry was silent for a long time, and after a long time, she shook her head: "I don't know."

"I heard that your mother treated you and your sisters very badly, isn't that true?"

Hearing this question, Shen Cherry suddenly raised her head and glanced at Hualang, then quickly lowered her head, and said, "No, actually, mother is very kind to us and sisters, it's just because mother has never been able to give birth to a son, and father treats mother very well." Just a little less care, because of these, the mother's temper became very bad, and she thought it was because we sisters are not boys, so this is not good for them, but the mother loves us, we can feel it."
