Chapter 371 The Horse and the Murderer(1/2)

Soon, Zheying and the others dug out the body of Doctor Huang and took it back to the Demon Palace.

Gongsun also specially asked someone to lead the horses of everyone over, as if it was of some use.

Gongsun squatted on the ground to check the corpse. Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi teased the little lamb. The little lamb is very lively. He obviously often plays with the elderly in the Demon Palace and is not afraid of people at all. The deer was first nestled in the doe's arms, but later she was led and ran out, chasing Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liangzi with the little lamb.

Zhan Zhao stood behind Gongsun and saw that the body was rotten and almost bones were left.

Han Zhang followed him to dig the body and shook his head, "There is only a thin-skinned coffin. If the doctor is really a man who does good deeds as rumored, and his family is well-off, then his wife would be too embarrassed to be with him.

"The coffin is not good, so the corpse is so rotten?" Bai Yutang glanced at the corpse and frowned.

"More than..." Gongsun shook his head, looked at the corpse, and said, "He was poisoned."

Everyone raised their eyebrows, "Poisoned?"

"Well..." Gongsun picked up a piece of bone and looked at it for a while, "It's very strong and highly poisonous, and the amount of poisoning is quite large."

As he said that, Gongsun checked the deceased's complete sternum, and there were obvious cracks on the ribs.

Everyone frowned.

Zhan Zhao said, "It seems like something was hit on his chest. Since it was poisoned... was it someone forged it?"

Gongsun shook his head, "Well... it should be caused by horse hooves."

Everyone was surprised.

At this time, I heard the sound of horse hooves coming from outside.

Everyone turned their faces and saw the shadow guards bringing the horses.

Hei Xiao was sleeping well just now, but was taken out of the stable in the middle of the night. He was a little unhappy and shook his head and sniffed.

After Zao Duoduo entered the door, his attention was attracted by the little lamb and the deer. Bai Yunfan obviously disliked the corpse on the ground.

Gongsun asked Ziying to move the black owl over.

Ziying pulled the black owl, and the black owl was still angry and refused to leave. Zhao Pu glanced at it, and the black owl calmed down and came over honestly.

When Xiao Sizi saw the black owl, she ran over to help Ziying pull the rope and pull it. The black owl walked to the corpse and lowered her head and rubbed Xiao Sizi. She seemed to be in a much better mood.

Gongsun reached out and gently patted the black owl's front hoof. Read the full text of the rich wife.

The black owl looked at Gongsun and raised a hoof.

Gongsun pulled the black owl's hooves, compared the sternum of the corpse, shook his head, and signaled the person behind to change another one.

Hei Xiao slipped to the side, and the little fourth son took out a piece of candy to feed it. Hei Xiao chewed the candy piece and seemed to wake up from sleepiness.

Zhao Pu went over and patted Hei Xiao's neck, watching the shadow guards bring Bai Yunfan over.

Bai Yunfan obviously didn't like the corpses on the ground very much. Gongsun wanted to reach out, but Bai Yutang stopped him, "Be careful."

Gongsun was stunned and looked up and saw Bai Yunfan looking at the corpse on the ground without raising his hooves.

Gongsun retracted his hand, Bai Yunfan was the worst-tempered horse in all horses, so don't kick someone in a while.

Bai Yutang walked to the corpse and waved to Bai Yunfan.

When Bai Yunfan saw Bai Yutang wanting, he raised a hoof without hesitation.

Bai Yutang held its hooves to show to Gongsun.

Gongsun competed like the one who compared the black owl just now, shook his head, "It's still a little bigger."

Bai Yutang stood up and led Bai Yunfan aside.

Zhan Zhao whistled at Duoduo. Duoduo had already come here. Before Gongsun could reach out, Duoduo raised his hooves and stretched over.

Everyone was amused and crying, and Duoduo would always cooperate so much.

Gongsun carefully compared Duoduo's hooves, nodded and said, "The shape is close, it should be similar in shape."

"The hooves of the Qilin Horse are rounder." Yan Bi said, "and the Qilin Horse is smaller in body, so the hooves are smaller as those of the Dragon Bird and the Zhaoye Jade Lion."

"The fire-stepped Qilin and Duoduo are both Qilin horses. Could it be that horse that stepped on the yellow doctor?" Zhan Zhao frowned.

"These scars." Gongsun said, "some were caused before death, and some were after death."

Everyone was puzzled, "Have you stepped on it for a long time?"

Gongsun thought about it, took out a silver needle and stabbed it into the bone, then took out a bottle of potion, fiddled with it for a while, and finally suddenly realized, "Oh..."

Everyone looked at him.

"Doctor Huang is the snake venom of the viper!" Gongsun said.

Everyone was stunned.

"And..." Gongsun said, "From the scope of poisoning, there should be more than one snake..."

Everyone understood immediately.

"Oh!" Xiaoliangzi clapped his hands, "That horse is stomping on the doctor's snake! Those snakes are on the doctor's body, so they also step on the doctor."

"The viper lives alone." Grandma Nine-headed frowned, "and there are many raccoons, mongooses and other animals nearby, and few snakes appear."

"It was someone who deliberately put it." After checking the doctor's skull, Gongsun roughly understood the cause of the doctor's death.

"The doctor first was hit on the back of the head with a blunt weapon. After falling to the ground, someone poured several highly venomous vipers on him. The doctor was bitten by a snake and pulled it out to struggle... At this time, the horse came from somewhere and stepped on the poisonous snakes to save the doctor. But the doctor was too poisoned and died soon." Gongsun shook his head, "Look, there was a very slight trampling injury on the doctor's cheek... The horse might have stepped on it a few times after he died, and the movement was very light, trying to wake him up."

"That real murderer must be watching their secrets nearby." Zhao Pu frowned.

Everyone nodded. If they used this method to kill people, they would definitely be sure that the person was dead in the distance before leaving. It is very likely that they had seen the whole process.

"That horse should have seen the murderer, too." Bai Yutang said.

Lin Yehuo squatted aside, "Is the murderer going to kill the horse to silence him because he saw his appearance?"

Zou Liang felt that this was unnecessary, "So what if the horse sees it? It can't speak."

"Unless..." Zhao Pu touched his chin, "There is evidence that the horse proves that he is the murderer."

Everyone was stunned.

"There is evidence from the horse?" Mr. Bao gently touched his beard.

Mr. Pang, who was sleepy on the side, said leisurely, "Didn't you say before that the place where the doctor's body was found was far from where he entered the mountain?"

Everyone looked at the Grand Master.

"Has the body been transferred?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"The murderer will ambush the horse in the place we passed just now... indicating that he knows that horse will go there." Bai Yutang said.

"The place is not very rich in grass, and the road is not easy to walk on... Why did the horse go back to that place? The woodcutter saw the horse when he found the body. He mentioned that the horse looked at him coldly and then ran away." Zhan Zhao connected the matter for a moment and said, "Will the body be transferred by the murderer? The horse kept following and watching nearby... And the place where the huge rock fell just now was the real murder scene?"

"Why is that horse going back?" Gongsun was curious, "I was still eating grass there for a while... are you waiting for something?"

Lin Yehuo couldn't sit still anymore and jumped up, "If this is the case, the murderer wouldn't have given up, right?"

"What's the special place in the forest we just went to?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Bai Yutang and Zou Liang both thought about it, but they were in a hurry just now and didn't pay much attention.

Lin Yehuo looked at the three of them and suddenly said, "There are many short trees."

Everyone looked at him.

"Down tree?"

"There are many vines." Lin Yehuo gestured and asked Gongsun, "That purple, chicken feet, is growing horizontally, and is called grass..."

"That's Danzicao, a herb..." Gongsun touched his chin, "If the doctor went into the mountain to collect herbs, would he have gone to collect Danzicao?"

"What medicinal uses does that kind of grass have?" Zhao Pu was curious.

"Well, it's not very useful, it's just that eating it is good for the skin..." Gongsun said.

Lin Yehuo narrowed his eyes, "Wouldn't that be very useful!"

"Short tree..." Zhan Zhao touched his chin and said to himself, "There are still many vines..."

Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao stood up and ran out.

Bai Yutang asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Go to the forest." Zhan Zhao said.

"Entering the forest in the middle of the night?" Yin Hou was a little worried.

"It's right outside the forest." Zhan Zhao said.

"I'll take you there." Grandma Jiutou led the way, "If you are on the periphery, it's not important to be the latest chapter of the War of Resistance Against Japan at night."

Zhan Zhao then followed her out, Bai Yutang followed, and Lin Yehuo followed.

Yin Hou simply asked to bring more people, put on torches, and go together.

When they arrived near the forest, Zhan Zhao entered the forest and asked everyone to hold torches and shine on the branches of the short trees.

He looked over one by one, and everyone was looking for it on the tree.

After searching for about half a stick of incense, Ouyang Shaozheng suddenly found something on a tree and waved to everyone, "Let's see here."
