At the white robe Inn.
Bai Yixuan pointed to the belt that had strangled Xu Dou to death, then asked, "Big Brother, do you feel that the position of this belt is very strange?"
Bai Yihui did not understand, "What's so strange about that, isn't it supposed to be like this when Xu Dou was strangled to death from behind?"
Bai Yixuan shook her head, "Big brother, don't think like that. Xu Dou was not killed by anyone, he committed suicide.
"What did you say? Was it suicide?" Bai Yihui was shocked, "But how could a person who commits suicide die like this? If they were to hang themselves, could it be that they should not hang the rope on the roof, but should not be like this?"
"Oh right, this is what I meant by strange, so not only did Xu Dou kill himself, he also wants to blame himself."
"The blame?"
"Big Brother, do you still not understand? This Xu Dou wants to blame this crime on Kong Xuan, but it seems very obvious, this person's method is actually very easy to deal with, as long as this person has absolute determination to die, as long as he ties a buckle to this place when he commits suicide, all of this can be explained."
"After a person dies, their body will be very heavy. If the position is controlled properly, the person's body will fall backwards after death, because after a person dies, their body will become stiff, so when he falls back, he will also bring the belt that was in his hands with him. This is the method for him to commit suicide."
"But why?" Bai Yihui didn't understand, "Isn't this Xu Dou a good friend of Kong Xuan? Furthermore, Kong Xuan has taken this Xu Dou very seriously, so why would he want to blame Kong Xuan even if he had to commit suicide?"
"I'm not sure about that yet, but I can roughly guess, most people in this world just don't like others. Maybe it's because of this, maybe it's because Kong Xuan is really too great, and it's the reason why people don't feel good about swallowing an elephant."
"Are you sure?"
"I can almost confirm it, big brother, Sis A really did not make a mistake. This man is indeed a rare good person, perhaps he is just a little careless, but this is not a big problem."
"Alright, I have already sent people to the Qinghe Town."
"When the officials return, I'll be clear about the matter. I guess this Qing Mei who confessed to my future brother-in-law must have some sort of relationship with him, and it's very likely that Xu Dou did it alone."
Bai Yihui sighed, "That's true, you can come across any case that way, and now that this case has people from your own family, Xiao Er really likes this person called Kong Xuan."
"Big brother, you're still talking about it. There's no good in calling me that. I'm already afraid of big brother."
Yanzhou Town.
There were indeed not many people in the small town, and most of them were locals. Mu Yefan rarely went out, and the little second brother knew that this esteemed guest liked peace and quiet, so other than eating time, he basically did not disturb his.
The young second brother was busy cleaning out the inn when a few menacing looking men suddenly came. There were very few outsiders here to begin with, so when the young second brother saw these unfamiliar faces, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
The leader of the men looked around before saying disdainfully, "Whatever food there is in your restaurant, bring it to me. What kind of place is this? How unlucky."
Mu Yefan had been eating in this place for a few days already, and the best food here was only a bowl of beef with sauce. Mu Yefan did not care about these things from the start.
When they were in the palace, eating delicacies from mountains and sea was also not a good taste. Now that it had quieted down, they felt that their appetite had improved quite a bit.
At this time, Mu Yefan was seated at the side, drinking tea slowly. He lifted his eyes to glance indifferently at the burly man in the lead, and then silently continued to eat.
If Xiao Bai was here, he would have disliked the scene and would have made his move a long time ago. Presumably, it was still somewhat interesting as Mu Yefan continued to lower his head to drink his tea, but he was still able to take note of the situation over there.
Little second brother walked over with a big piece of beef, a few side dishes, and a steamed bun. ", please enjoy your meal."
The leader looked at the food on the table and said, "Just give this to laozi. Don't you see that my brothers are very tired? Don't you think these are just human things to eat?"
Mu Yefan laid on the side and drank the last bit of tea in his cup before raising his head to look at the waiter.
He was stunned and did not know what to say to make up for it. Standing on the spot, seeing that the big sized man's fist was about to come down, Mu Yefan finally spoke, "Brother, why make things so difficult for this person? If you want to eat the mountain and sea delicacies, you shouldn't be in this Yanzhou Town's inn, or could you be saying that you did that on purpose?"
"Who are you?" The big sized man pointed the spearhead at Mu Yefan, looking at how Mu Yefan acted, the big sized man knew that Mu Yefan was just someone who read the death order, and thought that if they saw too much injustice and saw benevolence and righteousness, they would be able to do it.
"Who I am isn't important right? The important thing is that you are bullying people here right now, I suggest that you better sit down and eat, and then let this matter go. It won't be easy for little second brother to call all of you over."
The waiter was close to tears. He thought that Mu Yefan was a cold-hearted person and didn't expect that he would actually help him speak up, especially for someone who didn't normally speak much. But now, he actually said so much.
Actually, Mu Yefan was only thinking about what to do if Bai Yixuan encountered such a situation, and was thinking it over and over again. Mu Yefan also felt that he spoke a bit too much today, but since he had stepped out, there was no reason for him to stand back.
"What arrogant words. Who do you think you are? We have to listen to whatever you say. Brothers, let's go together. Capture that person and destroy this shop for me."
Mu Yefan sneered, he had seen many unreasonable people, but these few times, he was the emperor himself. No one dared to be unreasonable in front of him, so today, he had truly experienced things.
"Capture me?" Without waiting for the big sized man to react, Mu Yefan had already taken a step forward with the chopsticks in his hand. Not waiting for them to react, the chopsticks in Mu Yefan's hand had already shot out, straight into the leader's hair, with a pair of chopsticks nailed on top of his head, anyone would feel that this was a little terrifying, not to mention that in their eyes, Mu Yefan was just a weak scholar.
"I just asked, is young master from the martial arts world?" That big guy also didn't dare to act rashly.
Mu Yefan shook his head, "I do not dare, but I am a villager, I have no intention to offend you, please forgive me."
She stood up and cupped her fist towards Mu Yefan, and the people behind her also cupped their fists in hesitation. The big sized man slowly took the chopsticks off his head and said, "Goodbye."
The waiter was about to give Mu Yefan a round of applause, one chopstick was enough to scare him away, the Young Master Mu was truly powerful, "Young Noble, you, you know martial arts, I thought you were a scholar?"
"I'm not a scholar, nor am I a martial artist. I'm just a country bumpkin. You don't need to worry about me. I've been under your care for the past few days, so you don't need to thank me."
"Young Master, the move that you showed me just now is really powerful. Can you teach me?"
Mu Yefan sized up this waiter and shook his head. No matter how he looked at it, this waiter didn't seem to be someone with talent, "You probably can't learn this at your age."
"Can't I learn even the one who throws chopsticks?" The waiter looked a little disappointed.
Mu Yefan thought about it carefully, then nodded his head, "I can try to call you out, since there's still some time before the Spring Festival."
"Soon, soon. In a few days, that scene will appear."
Mu Yefan nodded his head, after that he had another thing to do in Yanzhou Town, and that was to teach a waiter who knew nothing at all.
Mu Yefan had practiced his martial arts since he was young, and at that time, the royal father had specially found him a martial arts expert from the Jianghu. Mu Yefan still remembered that the person was very mysterious, and did not allow him to call him Master at all.
Although he lost his memory after that, Mu Yefan had been hunting in the mountains the entire time. When he first arrived at the mountain, Mu Yefan still couldn't hunt, and a mountain that was rarely seen was naturally filled with danger. On the contrary, he had trained Mu Yefan's martial arts.
Of course, Mu Yefan knew that Bai Yixuan's skills were also good, at first he suspected it, but after knowing the secrets of the jade pendant, Mu Yefan did not doubt it anymore. Bai Yixuan had told him everything, and in the end, even gave him the jade pendant, what was there to suspect?
The little second brother had failed many times but still failed to put the chopsticks into the chopsticks basket. Mu Yefan had to admit that there was a type of Inherent Skill that played around with these chopsticks.
Although the accuracy was not good, the power was still sufficient. However, Mu Yefan was still not at ease, he had originally planned to use this as a form of deterrence, if he was shot by this waiter, it would become a huge sin.
In this slow span of time, Mu Yefan had finally received the return of the Yanzhou Town's Yan.
Although the smell of spring was not very distinct, one morning when Mu Yefan woke up, he heard the sound of birds chirping outside. The waiter knocked on the door anxiously and shouted at the same time, "Young master, a magical scene is here."
As expected, the air above Yanzhou Town was filled with all kinds of birds, and these birds seemed to have some sort of fate with this place. One by one, they continuously wandered back and forth, and as Mu Yefan looked at these birds, his heart became a lot more relaxed.
Spring was coming, the birds were coming home, and it was time to move on.
