Bei Yutang must find that person and find a way to uncover the truth of that year.
Bei Yutang began to investigate the maids and old women back then, and was able to filter out useful information from the mouths of those servants.
A year ago, Xie Shiming's wet nurse returned to her hometown to retire, but she caught a cold and died on the way.
A year ago, that was the day the original owner and Fu Yi Bo met.
A year ago, the Qian family was wiped out.
All these things happened in the same year.
There is a rule in the detective manual that too many coincidences mean an inevitable connection.
All of these events revolved around one person, and they were all related to her. Needless to say, Xie Shiming must have learned about this from her wet nurse a year ago. She was afraid of losing her identity as a young lady of the Xie family, and therefore killed her wet nurse, the only person who knew about this.
At the same time, she sent people to kill the Qian family, so that she could get away with it completely.
The only puzzling thing is the original owner. Why did she want to deal with the original owner?
It seems that only Xie Shiming knows the answer.
A few words were clearly written on a piece of rice paper: "Xie Family" and "Xie Shiming".
Bei Yutang looked at the word above, his eyes fixed on the two words "Xie Family". It was time to enter the Xie Family.
Zhi Liu was shocked when he learned of her plan.
"How do you get in?"
"The hermit has his own clever plan." Bei Yutang smiled mysteriously.
Yunzhou Prefecture
In the past few days, a story has been circulating in the streets and alleys of Yunzhou Prefecture. It is about a master who has come to the city. He can make fire with his hands, breathe out flames, and tell people's fortunes by counting on his fingers.
That day, many people on the street saw him instantly save a terminally ill beggar and make an old man who had been lame for years recover instantly.
Everyone said that he was an immortal who had descended to earth and possessed immortal magical powers. Many people wanted to spend a lot of money to hire him, but unfortunately, he refused to go.
Instead, it refuted the rumors that he was a money-swindler.
The old immortal's whereabouts were so erratic that many people who wanted to seek medical treatment or advice from him could not find him anywhere.
One day, an old man with a sage-like demeanor appeared in front of the Xie Mansion. He stood there, looking up at the sky above the mansion. The gatekeeper saw that the man was still not leaving and couldn't help but wonder what he was looking at.
He looked in the direction the old man was looking, and saw nothing but blue sky and white clouds.
"Master, what are you looking at?" asked the servant guarding the gate.
The old man stroked his gray beard and said to him kindly, "There is an evil spirit causing trouble in your house. If it is not eliminated in time, I am afraid it will bring disaster to the whole family."
When the servant heard this, he immediately became angry and asked, "How can you talk like that, old Taoist priest?"
The old Taoist priest did not change his words because of his servant's anger. He continued calmly, "My benefactor, if you do not want your master to suffer any harm, please explain this matter to your master immediately and find and eliminate the evil spirit as soon as possible."
Only a servant would be crazy to hear the words of a stinky Taoist priest who came out of nowhere and run to his master to say such unlucky things. It's not like he's thick-skinned and is asking for a beating.
Just as he was about to chase the Taoist priest away, a passerby saw the old Taoist priest, stopped in his tracks, and asked excitedly, "Master, are you the Shangqing Zhenren?"
The old Taoist nodded, "It is me."
When the doorman heard the words "Shangqing Zhenren", his heart was shocked. Isn't this the living immortal who has been talked about a lot in Yunzhou City recently?
