I want to cultivate swordsman

Chapter 67: Interrogation

In the middle of the night, people in the county yamen swayed, torches were held high, and it was very lively. While serving tea for Xu Zhiqiu, Xing Butou ordered his subordinates to escort the people brought by the Hu family to the cell for interrogation.

There are more than 50 people in Hu's house, but it is enough for the gang of arresters to work.

Xu Zhiqiu picked up the cup and took a few sips of tea, and the police officer Xiao Liu came in from the door, with a man tied in his hands, this man was fat and big ears, with a round belly, he looked fat and weak, panting while walking Non-stop, about fifty years old, disheveled,

"Boss, this man is the master of the Hu mansion."

Hearing what Xiaoliu said, Catcher Xing suddenly regained his spirits, and said without saying a word: "You are the master of the Hu family, so you have the surname Hu, and dare to collude with monsters on my territory, I see you It’s really not difficult for the old birthday star to hang himself!”

Master Hu trembled in fright, and shouted that he was wronged.

Catcher Xing saw that this man was really useless, and whispered to Xiao Liu: "This man was also at the house before? Why didn't he wear a coat?"

Xiao Liu also lowered his voice and said: "Boss, this surnamed Hu was staying in the room with the servant girl before. When I went, the two of them were still stacked together and did not separate. I can't delay for too long after thinking about it, so let him do whatever he wants." Came here in underwear."

Catcher Xing frowned and didn't say anything more. He turned to look at Master Hu again and said, "Master Hu, tell us everything you know, otherwise you will be served with sticks."

Master Hu has been rich and honored half his life, how could he stand up to such intimidation, he said tremblingly: "Master Hu, I, I, I, I don't know anything."

"How dare you say you don't know." Catcher Xing winked at Xiao Liu, who immediately fetched a long stick and made a gesture to beat him. This frightened Master Hu, and fell to his knees with a plop, begging for mercy .

Seeing that Mr. Hu didn't seem to be lying, Xu Zhiqiu put down his teacup and interjected, "Master Hu, from Lin'an County?"

Master Hu nodded hurriedly: "A native of Lin'an County, a native of Lin'an County, my surname is Hu, and my name is Wangcai. He is a native of Lin'an County. He relies on the family property left by his ancestors to be rich for half his life. , I am really wronged, I have never done anything in collusion with monsters."

Master Hu defended himself, sweating profusely in anxiety, and even kept swearing and swearing in order to make his words credible.Seeing that Xu Zhiqiu interrupted, arrester Xiao Liu hurriedly put away the long stick.

Xing Butou followed up and asked: "You said you didn't collude with monsters, what's the matter with the eldest lady, she is your first wife, you don't even know that your wife is a monster?"

Master Hu was full of grievances: "I... really don't know."

Speaking of it, Mr. Hu was really wronged. After half a month of hard work, he finally got the consent of the second wife to accept the new maid from the side courtyard as a concubine. It turned out that he didn't realize it. This is what should be done. Halfway through being dragged off the bed, the most annoying thing was that he didn't dare to resist, and along the way, some people said that his eldest wife was a monster, which made him doubt his life.

Looking back on the past, Mr. Hu really didn't realize that Mrs. Zheng, who he brought into the house eight times with a big sedan chair, was a monster.

Looking at Mr. Hu who was about to cry but without tears, Catcher Xing half-believingly said: "How many days and nights have you slept in the same bed with that eldest lady, and you haven't noticed anything?"

Master Hu shook his head: "When we were young, we used to be together a lot, but in recent years... we haven't slept together again."

Mr. Hu is used to spending time and money on the property left by his ancestors. He is not a peaceful master. Although he only has two wives on the surface, he doesn't know how many women he has behind his back.

"Master Cha, it's all saying that my wife is a monster, but you have to tell me what kind of monster it is."

Quickly, Xiao Liu said: "It's a mouse spirit!"

What?Rat spirit?Master Hu almost jumped up and smashed his head against the wall, and then his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground. He was so frightened that Butou Xing hurried to pinch him, and Master Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Hu cried and shouted: "I am sorry to my ancestors, I am sorry to the ancestors of the Hu family..."

Shouting and almost fainting again.

After a while, when the shouting stopped, Xu Zhiqiu asked, "Then, does Mr. Hu know anything about Da Furen's natal family?"

When a rich family like this marries a regular wife, most of them require the other party to be an innocent and good family member. Therefore, if the eldest wife can marry into the Hu family, she must have an innocent family background on the surface.

Sure enough, Mr. Hu nodded his head to show that he knew, but he shook his head immediately after, and only heard him say: "I remember it was from Lianghuai City and Qianjiazhuang. I visited it in person back then, but later I heard It is said that there was a plague in Qianjiazhuang, her parents and family members died, and only one cousin was still alive."

"Cousin?" Xu Zhiqiu frowned, "Staying here too?"

Master Hu shook his head: "That man often wanders around, but only occasionally comes to the house, and he just happens to be away these few days. That guy is very weird. I thought he was not a good guy early on. Apply rouge fine powder on the face, if it is not for the scruples, it is impossible for me to let him step into the Hu residence."

Hearing Master Hu's words, Xu Zhiqiu suddenly thought of someone. He remembered that when he left the Hu Mansion for the first time, he saw a man with heavy makeup arguing with the old man who burned yellow paper. He should be the so-called cousin .

As for the people in Qianjiazhuang who died in the plague, it seemed that it had been planned long ago to prevent anyone from tracing them.

But why do you want to do this?

Why would a monster in the metamorphosis period pretend to be a woman from a clean family background to marry into the Hu mansion? What is the reason for doing so? If it is because of love, it must be impossible, and it is not enough to see Master Hu's character Fascinated by Mrs.

Xu Zhiqiu thought deeply in silence, and Catcher Xing continued to ask: "Then think about it carefully, how can you find that monster's cousin, who is probably also a monster. If you can provide useful clues, Catcher will count you as guilty and meritorious, otherwise you Just stay in the dungeon."

What kind of place is the dungeon? The place where the repeat offenders are detained. Master Hu knows without thinking. If his body enters the dungeon, he will probably die in less than half a year. This makes him so anxious that he almost cried out.

After a while, when Catcher Xing got impatient with waiting, Master Hu finally said: "You can go to the wine shop in the alley next to Qinghe Street to try your luck. I used to pass by that road when I went to Zuichunlou Alley, but I saw him come out of that wine shop a few times."

A wine shop near Qinghe Street.

Xing Butou touched his chin and whispered: "I don't remember that there is a wine shop here."

The catcher Xiao Liu followed suit, "I don't remember either, it's hidden deep enough."

Xu Zhiqiu naturally didn't know, but he decided to take a trip.
