Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 152 Jiangjiazhuang

Li Yuanfang wondered, "There is no such place as Jiangjiazhuang?"

Di Renjie asked, "What happened next?"

Zeng Tai said: "The students carefully compared the identity document, and it was indeed Jiangjiazhuang, Henan County. Henan County is Yongchang County, which was renamed only a few years ago, and the document must be the name of Henan County before it was renamed. The students couldn’t figure it out, and they found many police officers who were familiar with Yongchang’s geography, and everyone agreed that there was no such Jiangjiazhuang.”

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang looked at each other.

Wang Mang asked, "Could it be a name change?"

Di Renjie nodded: "It's possible, what happens later?"

Zeng Tai went on to say: "Later, as the uncle said, the students thought whether Jiangjiazhuang had changed its name, but we didn't know. After the county captain reminded me, I thought of a person. This person's name is Gao Rujin, Wude served as the county magistrate in Henan County in the early years, and is now over ninety years old. He is one of the six ninety-year-old men in Yongchang."

Di Renjie nodded.

Zeng Tai continued: "So, I rushed to Gao Rujin's house with the county captain..."

As he spoke, such a picture flashed in his mind.

Gao Ru enters the house.

Gao Rujin suddenly raised his head: "Jiangjiazhuang?"

Zeng Tai nodded: "Yes. Senior, do you know if there is such a village in Yongchang?"

Gao Rujin's lips trembled, and he repeated softly: "Jiangjiazhuang, Jiangjiazhuang."

Zeng Tai hurriedly asked, "Senior, do you know this place?"

Gao Rujin let out a long sigh: "Of course. If Grandfather hadn't come here today, I would never dare to think about that terrible place again for the rest of my life!"

Zeng Tai was taken aback: "Scary place?"

Gao Rujin nodded, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "It was the tenth year of Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan, a family in Jiangjiazhuang, more than 30 people were killed at home, and the bodies were beheaded. The head and left arm..."

Zeng Tai frowned: "You mean, someone chopped off the head and left arm of the corpse?"

Gao Rujin nodded: "Exactly. Grandpa, what's the matter?"

Zeng Tai shook his head: "Ah, it's nothing. You can continue."

Gao Rujin said: "At that time, the case happened to be handled by the old man. I led people to search the nearby mountains and villages, and finally found the head and arms of the deceased in a deserted general temple in Xilin. Dozens of heads , Dozens of arms were enshrined in front of the gods in the General Temple! The scene was so horrible that it is still chilling to think about it. At that time, many government servants who went with them had nightmares after returning home."

Zeng Tai asked: "Then, is the case solved?"

Gao Rujin sighed: "This is the only thing I regret in my life. The case has been going on for four months, but there is no progress. Later, a Taoist priest who walked away came to the county and told the old man that it was a ghost. , Yin soldiers kill people."

Zeng Tai was stunned: "What, Yin soldiers kill people?"

Gao Rujin nodded: "Yes, I didn't believe it at the time. I didn't expect that Jiangjiazhuang caught fire the next day, and almost all the people in Yizhuang were burned to death! In my impression, only four people survived. Five young people who were not in the village. What is even more strange is that at the same time as the Jiangjiazhuang fire, the General Temple in Xilin was also on fire. Because of this, he was severely punished by Shangfeng, so he lost his official position."

Zeng Tai asked: "Do you know who put the head and arms of the deceased in the General Temple? Why did he do that?"

Gao Rujin smiled wryly: "Human? You are wrong, my lord. It's not a human, it's a ghost, it's a wicked ghost!"

Zeng Tai was shocked and asked: "Li Gui? But, why did Li Gui kill the people in Jiangjiazhuang?"

Gao Rujin shook his head: "How can we mortals know about the ghosts. I heard later that the General Temple was built to commemorate the deceased former Sui Xiaoguo Army Zhonglang Yuwen Chengdu."

……

Wang Mang asked: "Brother Zeng, you just said, who is enshrined in the General Temple?"

Zeng Tai said: "It is the former Sui Xiaoguo Army Zhonglang General Yuwen Chengdu."

Di Renjie turned his gaze to He Yun, the flying dragon envoy: "Master He, you just said that the suits on the hoof prints are for the former Sui Xiaoguo army."

He Yun nodded: "That suit is the special shoe for the Xiaoguo Army!"

Di Renjie stood up and said, "Zeng Tai, continue talking."

Zeng Tai nodded and said: "After listening to Gao Rujin's words, the students feel that this matter is very serious. The tragic incident decades ago is surprisingly similar to the one that happened today! Originally, the students wanted to report it to their mentor immediately. But thinking that it happened decades ago, I decided to find Jiangjiazhuang and the family of the deceased Jiang Xiaolang first."

Di Renjie nodded.

Zeng Tai continued: "So, the students asked about the specific location of Jiangjiazhuang, and led people to rush there..."

As he spoke, such a picture flashed in his mind.

Zeng Tai led the county lieutenant and government officials to climb Qingyanggang in the rain. Looking around, he saw ruins scattered all over the hill, and there were hundreds of tombs next to the ruins.

Zeng Tai frowned: "Where is this Jiangjiazhuang? It's obviously a cemetery!"

The county lieutenant beside him replied: "According to what Gao Rujin said, Jiangjiazhuang is located on Qingyanggang, and here is Qingyanggang."

Zeng Tai turned his head and looked down the hillock. There was a village of dozens of families in the valley below the hillock. He asked, "What's the name of that village?"

A policeman said: "If you go back to my grandfather, it's Enji Village."

Zeng Tai nodded, turned around and walked towards the cemetery.

Zeng Tai looked carefully, and there was a stone tablet standing on each of the tombs, and the name and surname engraved on the stone tablet turned out to be "Jiang"!
Zeng Tai's eyes fell on a stone tablet, on which was engraved with a line of large characters: "The tomb of the old family Changjiang Xiaolang".

……

Wang Mang sneered: "These people really took great pains. If we hadn't surveyed the scene today and found out that the deceased was Sun Dianchen, I'm afraid they really believed in the ghost story. Brother Zeng, what happened next?"

Zeng Tai said: "I was very surprised at the time, so I immediately led people back to the county government, transferred the old archives from the reign of Emperor Taizong Zhenguan, and found the county annals from the tenth year of Zhenguan. named Jiangjiazhuang..."

Wang Mang said: "If my predictions are correct, Brother Zeng, you will definitely see that this real Jiang Xiaolang must have had his head and left arm cut off too!"

Zeng Tai nodded: "Yes, there is such a record in the old documents of the Zhenguan period: "On the night of July [-], ten years, Jiang Xiaolang, the owner of the Jiangjia Courtyard in Jiangjiazhuang, Henan County, and more than [-] people in his family, were killed in the house. Middle. The head and left arm of the corpse were beheaded, suspected to be the work of a ghost. Jiang Xiaolang was born in the seventh year of Daye of the former Sui Dynasty. He served in the right guard of this dynasty. ’ I took out Jiang Xiaolang’s ID card for comparison, and it said, ‘Jiang Xiaolang, from Jiangjiazhuang, Henan County, born in the seventh year of Sui Daye.’ The two match!”

Di Renjie said: "It is certain that someone deliberately used the murder case decades ago to interfere with our audio-visual."

Zeng Tai nodded: "Students think so too!"

Li Yuanfang asked: "But what happened to the former Sui's shoe?"

Wang Mang said: "Brother Yuanfang, you underestimate these people too much. These people even made bloody horses for us. Do you think it is difficult to imitate some horseshoes?"

"these people?"

He Yun, Li Yuanfang, and Zeng Tai said in unison.

Wang Mang sneered: "Just now, my lord and I were suffering from the lack of evidence to catch these people. I didn't expect them to come to our door."

Zeng Tai asked suspiciously, "Uncle, what does this mean?"

Wang Mang shook his head: "The power of these people is far beyond our imagination, it's hard to say now!"

Di Renjie nodded: "Jing Yang, it seems that we are going to make a plan to catch ghosts! Tomorrow morning, we will go to the General Temple in Xilin!"
