He Zhi drew his sword, squatted down to examine the corpse, and used the tip of the sword to pry open the deceased's clothes. He said, "This is a male corpse. The person who died is not Deng Yanjiao. Search the cave inside and out again and see if there is anything else!"
"yes!"
A while later, the soldiers returned, having found nothing.
He Zhi, however, stared blankly at the male corpse.
"Look, this person has only been dead for a short time, so why does he look like this?"

"Why are you still asking He Zhi so many questions? Now that the person has been sent back, it's none of our business!" Zhao Huan waved his hand at He Zhi and said, "He Zhi, you've worked hard riding so fast, go down and get something to eat!"
