Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 30

[Chapter 30 Happy Buddha (8)]

After Master Liu took the officers and soldiers out, Su Qingmo felt that something was wrong and hurriedly went to find Zhao Tianhu. Zhao Tianhu was very surprised when he heard that the body had been found, and asked, “How did you find it?”

“I don’t know, the officers and soldiers only said the body I found it, and then I’ll come to you.” Su Qingmo bit her lip, not knowing what would happen if she and Zhao Tianhu were found to have done it.

Zhao Tianhu is a sensible man. Murder is a serious crime, let alone an official, how can he make excuses? Knowing that it was a felony, he did not hesitate, looked at Su Qingmo and said, “For now, we are still the best way.”

“Go? Where to go ?

”

I didn’t bring it…” Su Qingmo looked all over his body, except for the clothes on his body, he didn’t even have many handkerchiefs.

Zhao Tianhu took Su Qingmo’s hand and said harshly, “Let’s escape first. As long as you believe in me, Zhao Tianhu, no matter where you go, if I eat it in one bite, you will eat it.”

“Brother Zhao…” Yu Huanchang, who is longer than Huanchang, when has Su Qingmo ever seen someone show real affection for her? On weekdays, all I see are some false feelings and hypocrisy, using themselves to comfort people who are greedy and greedy, not to mention life and death, not even superfluous good words, Zhao Tianhu’s words really moved Su Qingmo, so Su Qingmo bites He answered with lips pressed, “I’ll go with you.”

After the two of them made up their minds, they didn’t hesitate, didn’t even take care of their softness, they only took some silver taels and started running. They didn’t dare to say hello when they met acquaintances on the street, and went straight to the gap in the city wall. , like a bird in prison is about to fly into the sky. But they didn’t expect that it was too late. They were caught by Master Liu’s people as soon as they left the city. The officers and soldiers surrounded Su Qingmo and Zhao Tianhu, and Master Liu walked out of the side and asked slowly: “Zhao Tianhu, Su Qingmo, where are you planning to go?”

“We… plan to go out for a walk.” Zhao Tianhu had no doubt that Master Liu would find them so soon, so he was lucky.

Master Liu looked at Su Qingmo, who was hiding behind Zhao Tianhu, and asked lazily, “I’m afraid it’s not that simple, right?”

“Hey, Master Liu, it’s all men, you understand this kind of thing.” It’s not that Zhao Tianhu didn’t know what Master Liu and Su Qingmo had done, so he found an excuse to have fun in the wild and tried to put it off.

When Master Liu heard this, his face sank, and he shouted loudly: “Understand what?! Do you understand that you want to abscond after killing people?”

“We didn’t kill people.” Su Qingmo panicked and waved his hands to explain: “Master Li died by himself. , we really didn’t kill him.”

“I want to quibble and bring them back to the yamen!” Master Liu lost his patience and ordered his subordinates to tie Su Qingmo and Zhao Tianhu.

After the witnesses and physical evidence were in the lobby of the yamen, Zhao Tianhu and Su Qingmo realized that they were being followed when they dumped the corpse last night, and it was none other than Chen Er, who was in charge of the watch. Yesterday During the night shift, I happened to pass Manhonglou, and I was curious when I saw Zhao Tianhu and Su Qingmo coming out of the window, so I kept following. Because it was too dark at night, and Zhao Tianhu and Su Qingmo were riding their horses, Chen Er didn’t see it too clearly. When he chased there, Zhao Tianhu and Su Qingmo had already mounted their horses and were going back to the city. After thinking about it, Chen Er felt that Zhao Tianhu and Su Qingmo might have buried something valuable in the ground, so they searched nearby for a night, and it was not until dawn that they dug the hole where Zhao Tianhu and Su Qingmo buried people. . When he dug it up and saw the body of Master Li inside, Chen Er was taken aback, and because he was too scared, he immediately reported it to the official.
