Du Mingcheng sighed: "It seems that you have made up your mind and don't want to confess. Okay, I won't force you to do anything, but there is another thing, please be sure to help me."

"What's the matter?" Long Xingtu breathed a sigh of relief.

"It is rumored that Zhong Wushan is well-versed in the world. I was entrusted by the Marquis of Anguo and wanted to ask the old senior about Xia Zhihuai's only daughter Xia Xin, but the old senior kept silent. This matter is of great importance. If the orphan of the Xia family is still alive, it will play an important role in rehabilitating the unjust case of the Xia family! Therefore, I have to ask you to help persuade the old senior and ask the old senior to extend a hand of justice. I and the Housing promise that they will never drag down the old senior!"

Du Mingcheng's eager eyes made a hint of panic in Long Xingtu's heart. She quietly suppressed the waves of shock and pretended to be surprised, "Has the Xia family been killed by the whole family? Where did the orphans come from?"

"According to Mr. Li, the Marquis always believed that Xia Xin was not dead. Although the body that was beheaded on that day looked very much like Xia Xin, and even said that there was no flaw, Xia Xin was bitten by a wild dog when she was young, leaving a scar the size of a fingernail. The body was intact." Du Mingcheng told the truth, since he wanted to ask Zhong Wushan for help, there was no reason to hide it.

Long Xingtu has a cold hand and feet. No wonder Li Yanbai is sure that she is Xia Xin. It turns out that their whole family thinks Xia Xin is still alive! Fortunately, she left, otherwise Li Yanzhou, and even the Marquis and his wife will know her identity!

"Star Map!"

Du Mingcheng looked at his expression and mistakenly thought she was unwilling to do so, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "You promised to participate in the Xia Zhihuai case, and you were part of us, so you have the obligation to help us find Xia Xin!"

"Sir, I have a question. If Xia Xin lives in the world and you find her again, she will be responsible for the crime of deceiving the king first? And no one who was involved in saving her back then could survive!" Long Xing's picture was slow and he was incisive.

Du Mingcheng nodded: "Yes, we have already thought about this issue. Naturally, this is a secret. We will not make it public until we have obtained the edict of exemption from death from the current saint."

However, Long Xingtu only believed in the sense of security brought by holding his life in his hands. She was silent for a moment and said, "It seems that my master has been to Wuyang County. I don't know where he is at this moment?"

Du Mingcheng said: "The old senior visited the people's situation around Wuyang County, but his whereabouts are uncertain. Sometimes he came back one or two days, sometimes three or four days."

Long Xingtu nodded, "Okay. When the master returns, I will try to persuade him, but I can't guarantee that the master will listen to me."

"If your apprentice is not worth enough, then what about Zhongli and Zhong Chu? Will it be..."

"Won't."

“Why?”

"My master prefers me, and my words are usually more effective than their siblings. But the master has his own opinions on his actions, and it is difficult to change what he decides."

Du Mingcheng was speechless.

The Dragon Star Map was about to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, Du Mingcheng suddenly grabbed her arm, "Why is there no letter from the Second Master?"

"Hmm? How could I know?" Long Xingtu was stunned.

Du Mingcheng looked at her, with a sense of scrutiny in his eyes, "I have been thinking these days. With Mr. Li's nature, how can he ignore you?"

Du Mingcheng also had the potential to gossip for the first time when the Dragon Star Map was revealed. She said patiently: "Sir, are you thinking too much? Since General Li and Prince Xian have already asked, why should Mr. Li do something repetitive? Besides, I am a little master, what can I do..."

"You abandoned your official position and refused to act, but is there any reason for Li Erye?" Du Mingcheng suddenly made a bold guess.

Long Xingtu's face paled for a moment, and then slowly calmed down: "Sir, any choice I make has nothing to do with others, it's just for my own considerations. Between me and I, I hope to only talk about business affairs and not privacy. If the adults can't do it, I can leave Wuyang County immediately."

Du Mingcheng admitted defeat, bowed and apologized, and softened the Dragon Star Map.

She said seriously: "Talk about serious matters. The second body was found in the cellar of Tongfu Inn, and all of them have been transported back to the morgue."

"Two people died?" Du Mingcheng was surprised, "Is it a pile of bones?"

"No." Long Xingtu shook his head and kindly reminded, "Grandpa is mentally prepared. This is a corpse that is more terrifying than white bones. If you can't stand it, don't look at it for the time being. After Dr. Zhu and I have an autopsy, we will take a look. "Grandpa will take a look."

When Du Mingcheng heard this, he was shocked with lingering fear. When he looked at the serious expression of the Dragon Star Map, he knew that what he said was not false. But as the county magistrate, he had to see the status of the corpse before the autopsy to meet the case trial regulations. After a moment of entanglement, he finally made up his mind and said, "It doesn't matter, I can hold on. Let's go, go to the morgue."

Long Xingtu raised his eyebrows, "Okay, with me here, please relax your heart."

The two walked out of the study.

The lights in front and back residences are bright.

Wherever the Dragon Star Map looks, it seems that there is always someone who is smiling and calling her name affectionately: Star Map.

She lowered her eyelids, and the sourness surged from the tip of her nose spread to her heart.

At the beginning, if Du Mingcheng had told her earlier that Erye Li was not Li Yanbai, all these things today would have been another ending.

There was no abnormality in the morgue.

The constable and the yamen runners who were always on level 1 were finally relieved when Long Xingtu and Du Mingcheng came.

The constable reported: "Master Long, there is no movement inside for the time being."

Long Xingtu explained carefully: "I inform Zhu Lu to have an autopsy after the sun comes out tomorrow morning and bring all the things needed for bone examinations. In addition, I instructed the kitchen to prepare charcoal ash in advance, mix the wine tank, white plum, green onion, salt and pepper together and grind it into cakes."

"Yes!" The constable took notes one by one.

Du Mingcheng stared at the two locks reinforced on the morgue door. Combined with the situation of heavy troops guarding and the report that the constable said something was right, he was full of suspicion, "The corpse in the cellar is not a bone. Could it be that it has not rotted before it died? But even so, what is particularly scary?"

Dragon Star Tu tightened his fists and said slowly: "It's not just dead, but the mummy that has lasted for a long time after his death, also called zombies. According to ancient books, zombies will turn into three types of mummy zombies, red, black and white. The zombie in the cellar is the red mummy."

Du Mingcheng's legs became weak and he almost fell on the ground, "Zombie? How did this thing... come from?"
