The self-reversal of the cannon fodder fat wife

Zhou Tian and Liu Yong are both martial artists, so they are more than capable of arresting two thugs, but they are not stupid either, so they will naturally not alert the enemy.

After they arrived in Guixian County, they wandered around and asked about the location of Gaojia Village and the local customs and culture there.

"Gaojia Village is not far from the county town. You can get there in half an hour if you ride a horse."

The shopkeeper looked at them curiously, and Zhou Tian and Liu Yong were very surprised.

Zhou Tian thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "Uncle, to be honest with you, we are going to Gaojia Village to look for someone."

"We have a younger brother who got lost when he was young. We received news a few days ago that someone discovered a man who looked very similar to our father in Gaojia Village a few days ago."

"As soon as we heard the news, we rushed over to check it out."

After hearing their life stories, the old man sighed and said, "Alas, I don't know if you can see your brother."

"Last night, three houses in Gaojia Village caught fire at the same time."

"It was a dry and windy night, and everyone was fast asleep. The people inside the house didn't notice anything. By the time they woke up and called for help, the fire had already burned through the beams of the house, and everyone inside was burned to death."

"There are five people in one family, and six people in another family. Their fathers are brothers. The two sons just came back from working in Pengcheng, and they all died there."

"Fortunately, everyone in the other house was out visiting relatives, so this disaster was avoided."

Zhou Tian and Liu Yong looked at each other and their hearts skipped a beat. The first thing that came to their mind were only four words: murder to silence the witness!

Seeing their anxious faces, the old man kindly advised: "Go and have a look first, your brother may not be inside."

"The villagers of Gaojia Village are now very scared and have even reported the incident to the county magistrate."

"The county magistrate went to Gaojia Village early this morning, and I don't know what the situation is."

The two men gave the old man money for the meal and a ten-cent reward, then rode their horses to Gaojia Village.

When they arrived at Gaojia Village, the yamen runners guarding the village entrance stopped them.

"What are you doing!"

"No outsiders are allowed in or out!"

The bailiffs shouted at them and told them to leave immediately.

Regardless of whether the people burned to death were the ones they were looking for, the yamen runners were now guarding the entrance to the village. Even if the three people were not burned to death, they could not get out.

Zhou Tian and Liu Yong took out their tokens from their pockets.

"Xuzhou garrison investigates the case!"

The two yamen runners immediately saluted them respectfully and flatteringly: "Please forgive me, my two generals. I was blind and did not recognize the great man. Please forgive me."

Liu Yong glanced at them coldly. All of these people had the same look on their faces.

"Let's capture Gao De, Gao Di, and Gao Tu from Gao Village!"

"Are these three people in the village?"

The bailiffs looked at each other, looking somewhat flustered.

Zhou Tian scolded: "Hurry up and tell me!"

The yamen runner then said tremblingly: "Three houses in Gaojia Village caught fire last night, and they happened to belong to these three families."

"The fathers of Gao De and Gao Di were brothers. All eleven people from the two families were burned to death inside."

"The Gaotu family went out to visit relatives yesterday morning and escaped the disaster."

Zhou Tian and Liu Yong frowned.

What a great hatred! Not only did it cause murder and arson, it even harmed the entire family and burned so many innocent people to death.

Zhou Tian clenched his fists in anger.

Liu Yong was relatively calm and only asked, "Is Gao Tu anywhere?"

The bailiff shook his head.

Another one was more clever: "Sir, I will take you to the village to ask Mr. Gao?"

"The two of us are responsible for guarding the entrance to the village today. We are not very clear about the situation inside."

Liu Yong nodded and signaled the bailiff to lead the way.

After meeting Mr. Gao and the head of the village, the two men showed their badges and explained their purpose.

The village head slapped his chest in pain: "It must be these three who caused the trouble and brought about the disaster that killed me!"

"Pity their parents and brothers."

Mr. Gao had no idea at first, but when he heard what the head of the village said, his eyes lit up as if he had found a breakthrough.

"Why don't you tell me about the situation of these three people?"

The head of the village did not dare to delay and immediately told the situation of the three people.

These three people are well-known hooligans in the village. Their parents and brothers are all hardworking, but these three people are lazy and idle all day long. They used to live in Guixian County, but later they went to Pengcheng for three years and never came back.

They suddenly came back a few days ago, and after coming back they didn't go out and just slept at home.

Even when their parents pressed them, they wouldn't tell anyone and would just say they came back to rest for a while.

Gao Tu's home is some distance away from Gaode Heights' home. After he came back, he had not left the house. Yesterday morning, he took his whole family out. Unexpectedly, the house suddenly caught fire at night.

Zhou Tian asked curiously, "Did Gao Tu and his family do anything unusual before they left?"

The village head thought about it and said, "They took a lot of things with them, just like they were moving!"

"Now that I think about it, Gao Tu must have guessed that he would be killed, so he took his whole family away to save his life."

Zhou Tian and Liu Yong agreed with this statement. They asked the head of the village about Gao Tu's family's relatives. Finally, before leaving, they pulled Mr. Gao aside.

"Master Gao, now that a simple riot has escalated into a murder case, it is no longer something you and I can handle."

"These eleven people also hope that you will bury them properly first."

“As for the three burned houses, I hope you can send people to guard them and not let anyone get close to them, so as to prevent the evidence inside from being destroyed.”

"In addition, I would like to trouble you to help find the whereabouts of Gao Tu's family. Now they have important witnesses and we need to bring them back."

"We will discuss the follow-up matters with Lord Lu, the governor of the state, and then make a decision."

When Mr. Gao heard what they said, he immediately agreed respectfully. He was still racking his brains over how to deal with this matter, and now someone has helped him think about it and arranged it, so he is naturally grateful.

"Thank you both, my Lords!"

"Please rest assured, sir. I will handle it according to your instructions."

With his guarantee, Zhou Tian and the others felt relieved and immediately returned to Pengcheng to report the incident to Lord Lu and Teng Ke.

After hearing this, Lord Lu angrily slammed the table and said, "How unreasonable! How vicious!"

"There are eleven people in the family, nine of whom are innocent, both old and young. How could the person behind this be so cruel?"

Teng Ke was also very angry, but he did not speak. He just kept a gloomy face. After a long while, he said, "The person behind this must have known that we were investigating this matter, so he killed people to silence them."

"Next, we can't act rashly."

The four of them discussed countermeasures again, and then asked Captain Huang to go out with fanfare and rush to Gui County, and asked him to go to the crime scene to look for clues.

After Teng Ke and Zhou Tian came out from the back door, they went straight back to Teng Mansion. The three of them continued to discuss the details, and Teng Ke wanted to find some clues from it.
