Chapter 567: The Ingenious Scythe Case
Chapter 567: The Ingenious Scythe Case
"Little immortal, we all remember you, and even erected a monument and built a temple in your honor," Di Renjie said, so it was impossible for us not to remember you.
The little fairy has brought them so many changes and good things. If they forget the little fairy, they would be ungrateful.
Although it was a transaction, they felt that they were taking advantage of the little immortal. They only gave up a little bit and could exchange it for so many good things.
The ancestors in the barrage also said that they could not afford to build a temple, so they made small statues to worship the immortals.
They were very grateful to the little fairy.
Li Wu widened her eyes and asked, "Erect a monument or build a temple?" There was no need to do that. Really, she didn't care about it at all. Moreover, she felt that it was not a good thing for a living person like her to be erected with a monument and a temple.
But this is the intention of our ancestors. They regarded her as an immortal, so they erected a monument and built a temple for her. That's fine. Just leave it that way. As long as the ancestors are happy, that's fine.
Life is so hard that we always need a pillar, a thought, the thought of living.
"How can I feel embarrassed? I just did some small things. How can it be worthy for you, my ancestors, to erect a monument or build a temple for me? I feel so embarrassed," Li Wu covered her face with her hands, ashamed. She felt that she should have done more.
"Little immortal, this is what we should do. Although you think that what you do is a small thing, it is a huge thing for us. With your appearance, little immortal, many dangerous things have been avoided and more people have not starved to death. Little immortal, you have done a great deed. Just erecting a monument and building a temple are not enough to record your merits," Song Ci said sincerely, and his eyes were full of appreciation and admiration for Li Wu, as if he really thought Li Wu was the little immortal.
Of course, in Song Ci's heart, the little fairy is a real little fairy.
Di Renjie and Bao Zheng also echoed, and the ancestors in front of the sky curtain also echoed in the barrage.
They knew that the little immortal was a person from the future, but they also knew that the little immortal was extraordinary and not an ordinary person from the future.
The little immortal took them to see many things from later generations. None of the people in later generations could take things from a distance like the little immortal could.
Therefore, many ancestors have long known that Li Wu is different, especially the ancestors who received elixirs bestowed by the immortals, who know even more that the immortals are different.
Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng has a lot to say about this. He had taken a lot of elixirs before, and his body was feeling uncomfortable in various ways. But after taking the elixirs given by the immortal, he felt a completely different person, as if he had returned to his twenties. He felt extremely relaxed and energetic every day. It would not be a problem for him to live another twenty or thirty years.
"Let's offer a toast to the little immortal. We won't say any more. We have all witnessed what the little immortal has done," Di Renjie said, raising his glass. Others also picked up their glasses and drank together.
Everything I want to say is in the wine. There is no need to say so much deliberately. It is enough as long as they understand it clearly in their hearts.
"Seniors, please enjoy your meal," Li Wu put down his wine glass. He didn't have to go out today, so he could drink a little wine since he didn't have to drive.
It's still raining heavily outside, and it feels like it's getting heavier.
"You eat too, little fairy."
"Okay, okay."
Li Wu ate a few mouthfuls and then stopped. She felt full. In fact, she didn't move much at home, so she was really not very hungry.
"Then let me try to tell you a little story about you, Lord Song. In fact, there are quite a lot of little stories about you, Lord Song.
There are many in the series "The Chief Justice of the Song Dynasty", and the TV series is also very good. If there is a chance, I will definitely let the three seniors watch the TV series about you three seniors," said Li Wu. She now wants to revisit the classic.
"Thank you, little immortal. I would rather see Mr. Bao," Song Ci said with a smile.
"Little Immortal, please tell me the story of Lord Song first. I am curious about how Lord Song solves the case," Bao Zheng also said. This younger generation is very capable. He is good at both literature and martial arts, and can write books to be passed down to later generations. He feels that he is much more capable than him.
"Okay, this story is called Solving the Scythe Murder Case!
One day, a man was hacked to death with a sickle in his home in broad daylight.
When he was found, the deceased had more than ten wounds on his body, all caused by a sickle.
Moreover, nothing was found missing from the deceased's home, so it is certain that this case was a revenge killing.
Sir Song, after conducting extensive investigations, you finally identified the murderer.
However, the murderer refused to plead guilty and made all kinds of excuses in an attempt to escape legal punishment.
So, Lord Song, you ordered people to search out all the sickles in the village and expose them to the sun.
Not long after, the murderer confessed on the spot. Does anyone know what happened? "
Li Wu deliberately did not finish his words and asked the question.
Many of the ancestors in front of the sky curtain were wondering what was going on. Why did the murderer confess his crime when the sickle was exposed to the sun?
Those who knew the answer just smiled faintly. They had heard of this before. Many ancestors gave their answers in the barrage.
Di Renjie and the other two looked at each other. Song Ci naturally knew the answer, after all, this was the method he proposed.
Di Renjie said, "Actually this is very simple. The sickle is stained with the smell of blood. When exposed to the sun, it will attract a lot of flies. Even if it is washed clean, the bloody smell on the sickle will still be there," Di Renjie said and touched his beard calmly.
The ancestors in front of the sky suddenly realized that this was the reason. Indeed, the smell of blood was the most likely to attract flies.
They didn't expect that Lord Song was so smart and came up with this idea, but they didn't know about it.
"Lord Song is really great. He solved the case cleverly," Bao Zheng nodded to Song Ci. You see, solving the case is very simple and not that difficult.
If the ancestors in front of the sky curtain knew that Bao Zheng said solving the case was easy, their faces would probably turn green with anger. Simple, it’s not easy at all.
As for the sickle case, if they were asked to investigate, they would not be able to find out the truth. In short, many of them did not know the method of exposing the sickle to the sun, so solving the case is really not that easy and is very difficult.
These things should be left to professionals.
"Fortunately, this case is relatively simple. If it were complicated, it would not be so easy to solve. However, solving the case is still very interesting," Song Ci said. He still liked doing these things and felt that he had an indescribable sense of accomplishment every time he solved a case.
Bao Zheng and Di Renjie nodded at the same time. They did not refute this. Solving the case was indeed interesting.
Li Wu also found it interesting, but she liked to watch others solve cases rather than trying to solve them herself. If she were really asked to solve the case, the murderer would probably have run away to the ends of the earth long ago.
