"Alright …" Mu Chengfang agreed and followed the instructions given by the Uncle Gong.
Now that she was living under someone else's roof and had never done anything real before, she would inevitably be ignored. This kind of thing was very normal, so she didn't care too much about it.
In the afternoon, Sun Jin had placed all the clues he knew on a piece of paper and discussed it with Zheng Hang. After all, what he had encountered in the past few days was definitely not a coincidence. Furthermore, Wang Weide had died a long time ago and at the right time, he had died. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Wang Weide's death had nothing to do with him.
At first glance, there was nothing strange about it.
In the past few days, Zheng Hang had not gained much from following Lu Kang, so he decided to keep Zheng Hang by his side. Looking at it now, it seemed that everything was starting to revolve towards Zhang Tu Hu. Speaking of which, it was a coincidence, the Zhang Tu Hu might really have some kind of shameful secret, and it just so happened that he was related to Wang Weide. After what happened, the most surprising thing was the change in him.
Of course, there was also a sense of coincidence, which was the Zhang Tu Hu's wife.
Thinking about it, Sun Jin immediately stood up and went to look for Mu Chengfang.
When he turned around, he instructed Zheng Hang, "I have something to take care of today, so it's not convenient for you to follow me. If anything happens, I will send a signal to you. You just have to come and support me. "
Zheng Hang nodded.
After walking around in a circle around the county magistrate area, Sun Jin could not find Mu Chengfang either. In the end, he still left the county magistrate area and found Mu Chengfang on the street. Sun Jin saw that Mu Chengfang was staring at a blade seller's shop, looking carefully at the sides of the shop, it was extremely delicate, to the point that he made people feel like they were about to forget to breathe.
After a moment of absent-mindedness, Sun Jin walked closer with a frown.
Mu Chengfang held onto a small knife and asked the shop owner: "Boss, how much is this small knife for?"
In the ancient world, there were very few daggers like this. Actually, the knife wasn't sharp and it looked like an ornament. However, there were very few women who liked to wear this sort of thing. As a result, the business of the owner wasn't particularly good.
When Mu Chengfang was cleaning up Uncle Gong's tools, she accidentally discovered that she did not have any tools, it was just some small gadgets she made herself. When she was shopping, he saw such an unpractical knife and had to play with it in her hands.
However, the more he read, the more he couldn't let go of her.
"Young man, if you like it, I'll give you five cents."
The boss was also a straightforward person.
After Mu Chengfang handed over the silver, she placed the small blade on himself. Although the blade was blade-less, Mu Chengfang had a feeling that this object would give her an unexpected harvest in the future.
As she thought about it, she did not realize that Sun Jin had followed her along the road.
After walking to the end of the street, Mu Chengfang realized that none of the two butcher's houses that sold pork had arrived. She was slightly disappointed and planned to return to her residence. Turning her head, he saw Sun Jin standing there. Mu Chengfang frowned, and after hesitating for a while, she still walked in Sun Jin's direction.
"Milord." She had only wanted to say goodbye to him and leave, but for some reason, she felt like Sun Jin had something important to say.
In an instant, he stopped in his tracks. She stared at Sun Jin, waiting for him to speak.
Mu Chengfang raised her eyebrows slightly, didn't he always follow him? When she turned her head, she just happened to see Sun Jin staring at her. If it was by chance, he had specially come to her, why didn't he come to greet her?
"Speak of your word, my lord."
"Follow me." Sun Jin didn't waste another word as he pulled Mu Chengfang away. When they reached the eastern entrance of Hushan County, they would be outside the suburbs if they went any further. Isn't the direction of the outskirts the direction of Zhang Tu Hu's residence?
Mu Chengfang stared at Sun Jin in confusion, and then realised that Sun Jin was tightly grabbing onto his hand. He felt awkward, but at the same time, he wanted to retract his hand. However, Sun Jin's arm was extremely powerful, and yet, she could not resist to become too obvious. If the other person didn't mean that, then wouldn't he be making a fool out of himself?
Sun Jin also did not realize it at all, and continued to drag Mu Chengfang towards the Zhang Tu Hu's thatched cottage.
"Master, what are you trying to do?" Mu Chengfang suppressed the discomfort he felt and asked seriously.
Sun Jin walked over, but Mu Chengfang did not understand what he meant. Since his hands were being held by him, she had to first understand what Sun Jin was thinking.
As Mu Chengfang's voice fell, she stopped in her tracks.
"You said before that you needed to look at Wang Weide's body, right?"
When she saw that Sun Jin did not speak with his usual relaxed manner, but instead had a serious look in his eyes, she nodded her head: "But that Wang Weide's corpse has already been buried under the jurisdiction of the yamen, so even if she wanted to, she will not be able to see it."
He couldn't possibly open someone's grave, could he?
Even if they did, the people at the yamen would not ignore them.
Although Mu Chengfang really wanted to know the truth, she wasn't the type of person who didn't know when to stop. As a result, there was no other way but to drop the matter.
"It doesn't matter."
Mu Chengfang suspiciously nodded, thinking that since Sun Jin brought him to Zhang Tu Hu's house, she should have other decisions. Thus, she waited quietly for Sun Jin to finish his words, not saying a word.
"Didn't we lock all the clues onto this Zhang Tu Hu earlier? I thought about it carefully. Even though this Zhang Tu Hu appeared very suddenly, right now, all the clues have indeed landed on him. "
Sun Jin was not a long-winded person, but he had yet to get to the main point. Mu Chengfang could not help but interrupt and ask: "So what?"
"It doesn't matter, the only thing we can do now is to make sure that Zhang Tu Hu is the culprit and that he is not, as long as …"
Mu Chengfang had already regained her senses, and taking a deep breath, she asked in disbelief, "Could it be that you want to …"
"That's right."
Sun Jin looked at Mu Chengfang in praise. His reaction was quite fast.
Mu Chengfang looked at Sun Jin and then stared at the ground and suddenly waved his hand: "No, this cannot be!"
She wasn't a pedantic person, but she really couldn't do something like that.
"Wang Weide's corpse has already been cremated, and from the looks of it, this is the only way. When you think about Wang Weide's death, do you really think that we can just let this matter go? " Sun Jin blocked the way in front of Mu Chengfang. If Wang Weide's death was truly related to him, then this matter was obviously not over yet.
Wang Weide's body had already been cremated?
Mu Chengfang had never thought that, even though she had only heard about the burial, she did not follow over. The main reason was because she still didn't quite understand how ancient corpses were handled. Hearing Sun Jin's words, she felt that the clues here were indeed directly destroyed.
It was just that her previous thought was that she might be able to obtain the map he drew from the Uncle Gong.
From the looks of it, Uncle Gong had been a corona for twenty years, so it was unlikely that he would hand over such a big case to her.
"Actually, even if you didn't go, I would have gone to take a look myself. This matter is very important to me, but isn't it the same for you as well? " Sun Jin saw that Mu Chengfang was already hesitating, and continued: "This Zhang Tu Hu's wife's death is strange, we all say that she is sick, but the strange thing is, we have never heard of anyone saying that she is sick, and that before she died, he was adulterous with others. Furthermore, you have seen the strange behavior of the Zhang Tu Hu. All of your doubts can only be answered after you have uncover the coffin of the Zhang Tu Hu's wife. "
When Mu Chengfang heard this, unknowingly, a bit of hot blood rose up from her heart.
"Alright... I promise you. "
Finally receiving Mu Chengfang's nod, Sun Jin could be considered to be relieved.
However, he wasn't in a hurry to go right now, and he wasn't in a hurry to open someone's coffin. But there were still some time before nightfall, so Sun Jin used this chance to bring Mu Chengfang around, to pass the time.
Hanshan County.
In the evening, Mother Dong had already prepared dinner, but after making dinner, she did not see Mu Chengfang come back.
Others might not know, but Mother Dong was very clear that Mu Chengfang was originally a girl from a pavilion. It was impossible for her not to come back at this hour, and she was a little worried, so she asked Ji Mulang for help.
