"What's going on?"
Xu Tian looked at the man lying on the ground with an ugly expression. In just one night, someone died?
And it was obvious that this man did not die normally, but was beaten to death.
Although he accidentally became the captain, it also made him happy because he could protect the innocent people in the exile team. Who knew...
who knew that not long after, someone in the team died.
Although I know that in the exiled team, it is normal for people to die, but it is abnormal for people to be immortal.
But when Captain Sun and the others ruled before, he couldn't stop it. However, now that he was the captain, he still couldn't stop it. How could he not be worried?
"What happened?"
Xu Tian asked the person who first discovered the body.
That man was the man who had changed his clothes and made an extra bowl of porridge. Xu Tian knew that his name was Zhou Ping.
"I don't know either..." Zhou Ping shook his head, "When I woke up in the morning, I heard an ouch, as if someone had fallen. Then I came over and saw that he was dead, so I hurried to find you..."
Xu Tian looked at the others again, and the others shook their heads, saying they didn't know. Many people looked at Xu Tian silently, and even opened their mouths, but did not speak, but glanced at Zhou Ping.
Xu Tian did not notice it, but checked the prisoner's injuries. Although he was not a prisoner, he had been a government servant for so long and had seen many dead people. He still knew which injuries were caused and how.
After a moment, Xu Tian looked up at Zhou Ping, "You said he fell to death?"
"I don't know either!" Zhou Ping denied what he just said, "Anyway, he was already dead when I found him in the morning. As for whether he died?" He fell to death, how could I know."
"Then you said you heard him say 'ouch' just now?" Xu Tian was not a fool. It was hard to tell that Zhou Ping was hiding something.
However, no matter how much he inquired, he did not get any useful information.
"I didn't say it must be him. Maybe I heard it wrong. It was actually someone else who shouted."
Xu Tian's face became very ugly. He knew that the man in front of him was killed. Maybe he was the same as Zhou Ping in front of him . There is a relationship, but there is no evidence.
And Zhou Ping was too cunning and couldn't ask anything.
He is not a county magistrate and cannot judge cases, nor is he a prosecutor. He cannot find more useful clues from the corpse.
For a time, the scene reached a deadlock.
He was not Captain Sun. If he were Captain Sun, he might have caught Zhou Ping long ago, tortured him, and forced him to find out the truth.
He couldn't do such a thing.
At this time, Zhou Ping said again, "Captain Xu, the injuries on his body were beaten by the previous government servants, and some of them were beaten by bandits..."
"Really?"
Xu Tian frowned. What he said was really shocking. Accident?
"Since you know him, then help him bury him properly."
After Xu Tian finished speaking, he left. He always felt that this matter was weird, but he couldn't explain it. When he asked the people next to him, they all said they didn't know.
This is unreasonable. If a living person dies inexplicably, do the people next to him really not notice it at all?
Seeing Xu Tian leave in a hurry, Zhou Ping and the people next to him looked at each other and smiled immediately.
He glared at the few people who hesitated before, "I know you want to tell the truth, but if you want to think clearly about the consequences, if you don't follow in Yu Biao's footsteps, then shut your mouths."
Everyone shuddered immediately, They actually guessed how Yu Biao died, but they were afraid that they would be implicated.
After all, Zhou Ping and the others had already roped in dozens of people, and Yu Biao was killed by Zhou Ping and others because he did not want to join them and even wanted to inform.
In fact, Zhou Ping and others did not intend to kill him at first, they just wanted to beat him up.
But they were afraid that he would scream, so they covered his mouth tightly. Who knew...
Seeing that Yu Biao was dead, they began to panic. They were considering whether to destroy the body to eliminate traces, and then disguised Yu Biao as escaping.
However, there were too many prisoners and government officials around, so they did not dare to move Yu Biao's body for fear of being discovered.
So, they let Yu Biao's body lie down openly, pretending to have fallen to death, and then looked for Xu Tian the next day.
They also wanted to use this to test Xu Tian's bottom line.
Seeing Mr. Chen and the others so handsome, it was impossible for these prisoners not to be jealous. Now that the captain has changed, the ferocity in some prisoners' hearts has also been released.
"Does this pass?"
Everyone looked at Zhou Ping and couldn't help but get excited. Zhou Ping also laughed, but he knew the priorities of the matter.
"Hurry up and help, bury Yu Biao's body. Even if they are suspicious, they won't be able to find evidence."
Everyone's eyes lit up, yes, now they can destroy the body openly and eliminate traces.
...
On the other side, Xu Tian couldn't figure it out and had no choice but to ask Mr. Chen for help.
"Stop!"
As soon as Xu Tian approached the carriage, he was stopped by the guards and he was not allowed to approach.
To be honest, these guards used to be General Pingwei's personal guards, but now they are disguised as government servants to protect Mr. Chen.
Therefore, nominally these government officials are Xu Tian's subordinates and must obey his orders, but now, these guards ignore Xu Tian at all.
They only obeyed Master Chen's orders, so when they saw Xu Tian approaching the carriage, they stopped him without hesitation.
Xu Tian was not angry when he saw this, but felt that it should be like this. After all, this was the only way to protect Mr. Chen.
"I'm looking for Mr. Chen!"
Xu Tian stopped and looked at the guards.
The guard nodded to him, and then came to the carriage. Although his voice was not loud, it was able to carry the sound into the carriage.
"Master Chen, Xu Tian is looking for you!"
In the carriage, it was customary for Chen Xue to stay outside, while Master Chen was farming in the space, while Xiaodie was studying food in the space, and her mother was helping her father with work.
Therefore, when hearing the guard's voice, Chen Xue nodded and responded, "Wait a minute!"
The guard was not surprised when he heard Chen Xue's answer, and did not continue to wait. He also knew that this was the habit of the Chen family, and most things were done by Chen Xue. Snow can make the decision.
So he returned to Xu Tian and said to him, "Wait a minute!"
Xu Tian nodded and stood aside to wait.
Chen Xue quickly entered the space and saw her father who was still in the field. "Dad, come out quickly. Xu Tian is looking for you."
"Looking for me? What are you doing?"
Master Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead. Because my hands were full of mud and water, my face was covered with mud.
"Who knows?" Chen Xue shrugged, "Anyway, he called you by name."
"Okay." Mr. Chen walked towards the shore, "I happen to be tired too..."
As he said, he complained Get up, "I don't know how tiring farming is..."
"My waist feels like it's going to give out!"
"Ahem, cough, cough!"
Mr. Chen suddenly looked at Chen Xue, "That Xiaoxue, there is There is no way..."
Although Mr. Chen said it clearly, Du Chenxue understood what he meant, which was whether there were any props that could help.
To be honest, even people born in rural areas will feel tired after farming for a long time, but they can persist, let alone those who have never farmed before.
