Li Substitutes Tao Jiang and Resurrects!
"Get those people here. They're simply bastards!”
Seeing that Wang Dacai didn't know, Yang Yi immediately ordered. Yang Yi didn't hold him accountable for his filial piety. He decided to get to the bottom of it first.
"Yes! The few of you, get over here and explain the matter to the county master.”
Hearing that Yang Yi didn't hold him accountable, Wang Da heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he was thinking about Yang Yi. Otherwise, he would definitely be punished and might not even be able to keep his position as a Li Zheng.
"Yes, sir!"
When the men realized that their plan had been exposed, they wanted to run but did not dare to. They could only lower their heads and come to Yang Yi.
He told her the whole story honestly.
It turned out that these people had similar thoughts as Li Zheng. They thought that no one would steal an old man's corpse, let alone stand up and leave.
Thus, they made some wild game and roasted it while drinking.
Then, they drank too much and fell asleep not far away.
They only woke up after the rooster crowed. He found that the old man's body was missing. It was very likely that someone had really stolen it.
The villagers on guard panicked and immediately looked for a way to make up for it.
After thinking about it, the few of them could not think of a good idea. In the end, they decided to steal a corpse in an attempt to muddle through.
The few of them took advantage of the night to go to the surrounding graveyard and dig up a new grave. They directly stole the body and covered it under the hay.
Hence, there was a scene of people dying.
"So you don't know where the old man's body went?”
After listening to the few of them, Yang Yi's expression was very ugly.
He thought that these villagers were very unreliable. Where did Wang Dacai find these hooligans from?
"Yes…it's like this."
Sensing that Yang Yi's expression was not good, the villagers stammered, looking very afraid.
"How preposterous!"
Yang Yi was not in a good mood when he thought about how the clues had been cut off.
He stood up and walked over to the young man's corpse, wanting to confirm his identity.
"Who knows this corpse? Coroner, check the cause of his death.”
After using his Divine Level Observation Power to examine the young man's corpse, he felt that there was something wrong with the young man's corpse. He decided to let the coroner examine it.
Liu Fulai was also very anxious when he realized that the clue had been cut off.
He hurriedly let the coroner take a look at the corpse while he continued to think of a way.
A moment later, the coroner's results shocked Yang Yi.
"Sir, this corpse did not die a normal death. It was hit in the back of the head with a blunt weapon.”
Yang Yi was thinking of a way, but the coroner's results surprised him.
He was originally investigating the case of a woman turning into an old man.
Who would have thought that after the clues were cut off, another serious murder case would be discovered.
At that moment, Yang Yi almost thought that he was dreaming. This was too much of a coincidence.
"Let me see!"
Yang Yi hurriedly walked over to examine the young man's head when he discovered that the fake corpse had been killed and buried.
After observing for a moment, Yang Yi realized that this person was indeed murdered. His expression turned solemn.
Two murders in a row was indeed too bizarre.
"Eh? Why were there so many people here? What happened?"
Just as Yang Yi was thinking and using all his strength to investigate, an old voice sounded.
In an instant, everyone turned to look at the source of the voice.
"Oh my god, there's a ghost…there's a ghost!”
"Oh my god, how…how did he survive? Isn't he already dead?"
"Sir, there's a ghost, there's a ghost!"
"He is the old man who died. Everyone, be careful of turning into a corpse!”
When Yang Yi looked at the old man, many people, including Li Zheng, turned pale and terrified.
They all pointed at the old man and called him a malicious ghost.
When Wu Song saw this scene, he immediately stood in front of Yang Yi and blocked him. He drew his long saber and looked at the old man warily.
The old man's appearance and the crowd's reaction.
The surrounding villagers were so frightened that they scattered and hurriedly ran far away, afraid that they would be possessed by the malicious ghost.
He heard Wang Dacai and the others say that the old man was a dead old man and that he was a malicious ghost.
Yang Yi immediately looked at the person's feet and the surrounding shadows.
Realizing that this person was very agile and did not look like a ghost at all, he immediately frowned.
"Everyone, don't be afraid. There are shadows around this person.”
Yang Yi said calmly when he saw that many people were scared out of their wits.
The clue had just been cut off. Now that the old man had become a living person, the clue had finally appeared again.
"Ah! There was really a shadow, so it was not a malicious ghost!”
After Yang Yi's reminder, everyone finally came to their senses.
It was broad daylight, how could he see ghosts in broad daylight? But wasn't this person dead? Why did he come back to life?
"You came at the right time. Do you know this coachman?”
Ignoring the discussions of the people around him, Yang Yi asked the old man with a serious expression.
Since he wasn't dead, it wasn't a murder case. They could wait and investigate.
However, that young man had indeed been killed, so his focus should have shifted to that side.
"Ah! You didn't die?"
The coachman was originally like a frosted eggplant. However, when he saw the old man appear again, and he was not dead yet.
He was extremely excited, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, his eyes shining.
"Are you the new county magistrate? Milord, I did board his carriage.”
Hearing Yang Yi's question, the old man immediately answered.
However, he didn't look very well, as if he hadn't slept for a few days.
"I see! Then why did you sneak into his carriage? Why did he appear here? Where is the original woman?"
Seeing the old man admit it, Yang Yi asked three questions.
If he didn't get to the bottom of this matter, he wouldn't be in the mood to investigate the young man's murder.
"Sir, this is all my fault for being playful…"
Hearing Yang Yi's question, the old man was led by two bailiffs to Yang Yi's side and told him what had happened.
Yang Yi frowned slightly after listening.
According to the old man, he was cultured when he was young and liked poetry.
Two days ago, he went to attend a poetry recital organized by an old friend. Because the journey was too far, his body was too weak.
On the way back, his old illness acted up and he almost fell on the road.
At this moment, a carriage passed by him.
He found that the coachman had fallen asleep leaning against the carriage, so he rushed into the carriage in a hurry.
Who knew that there was a beautiful woman in mourning clothes inside the carriage.
She was shocked when she saw him barging into the carriage.
In a moment of desperation, she hit him hard, thinking that he was up to no good.
The old man's illness had acted up, and after being beaten up by the woman, he fainted.
As for what happened after that, the old man was not too sure.
"Then why did you come back here now?”
Yang Yi continued to ask after realizing that the old man's words did not seem to have any loopholes.
"Sir, I am here to look for the poetry collection that I accidentally lost.”The old man answered without hesitation.
"Head Wu, see if there are any poems in the carriage.”
Hearing this, Yang Yi immediately ordered Wu Song to search in the car.
A moment later, Wu Songzhen found an old poetry book with a rough edge in the carriage.
In an instant, the woman in mourning clothes became the key to the truth.
