Liu Yijin summoned several people to the county government office.
"What have you discovered about Maitreya Buddhism?"
Yuan Peng and others shook their heads: "Sir, there are no major discoveries yet. All we have found are people who believe in Maitreya Buddhism. However, as far as we know, nearly half of the people in Qinghe County believe in Maitreya Buddhism, and among them Some people will fund Maitreya Buddhism, and we secretly monitored and tracked a few key elements, but we didn’t gain much for the time being.”
Mengyao also shook her head: "Qingluan and I have been busy these days in vain. This Maitreya Buddhism seems to have disappeared suddenly, and there are no clues at all."
"It seems that this Maitreya Buddhism is much more powerful than we imagined."
Qingluan hummed: "There must be a way for Maitreya Buddhism to exist for so many years, but we haven't found it yet. If we find it, there will be ways to deal with them."
Yuan Shuo hurriedly walked in and whispered: "Sir, there is a situation."
Just as everyone was about to leave, Liu Yijin said, "Let's all listen."
Yuan Shuo said nervously: "That woman and Song Li are dead."
"What?"
Liu Yijin suddenly stood up from his chair, "Didn't I ask you to send them back? How did they die?"
"It may be that the spoils are unevenly distributed." Yuan Shuo showed an embarrassed expression: "I sent someone to send them back, but not long after they left, we heard screams. By the time we ran over, the two of them were already dead. , and I don’t have any banknotes on me.”
Liu Yijin snorted angrily: "Let's go over and have a look!"
Everyone came to a house and saw obvious signs of fighting in the house. Song Li and the woman were stabbed to death.
The county clerk is examining the body.
"How's it going?"
"Back to the general, these two people were stabbed with sharp weapons. Judging from the technique, it was done with brute force. The intensity was very poor. Moreover, judging from the extent of the damage at the scene, the other party was in a hurry."
Liu Yijin turned around and looked at Yuan Shuo, "Where are the two young men who came with Song Li?"
"Run away, I'm investigating the two of them."
Liu Yijin sighed: "Forget it, I can't ask."
Just as he was talking, two government servants came in a hurry: "Sir, those two people are not from this county, so we can't find out."
Liu Yijin's heart suddenly became heavy.
Judging from the scene, it was a scene of uneven distribution of money, and the two people who escaped only took banknotes. They seemed to be in a hurry, and even the footprints on the ground were not wiped clean.
But is this really the case?
Liu Yijin always felt that there was a pair of eyes secretly watching his every move, but where was this person hiding and what was his name?
Liu Yijin walked out of the small courtyard with a heavy heart, looked up at the tightly closed door opposite, and walked over subconsciously.
"Whose family is this?"
A government servant hurriedly said: "There is a widow living here. We have just investigated. When the murder happened, the woman was sleeping. She didn't see anything."
Liu Yijin hummed, turned and walked out of the alley: "The whole city is searching for those two fugitives!"
Yuan Shuo hurriedly walked forward and whispered: "Sir, do you want to arrest this woman Miao Ling?"
"How can I arrest him if he has no evidence? Let's monitor him secretly first."
And just as Liu Yijin left the alley, a plainly dressed woman on the street looked at Liu Yijin with burning eyes, with cold murderous intent flashing in her eyes: "Dog officer!"
This person is Cui Ying'er who escaped from the Cui family's old village.
Beside her, the maid Xiang Ling, who looked shrewd, whispered: "Miss, this person is Liu Yijin. He was originally a long-term worker in Qinghe Town."
"Qinghe Town?"
Cui Ying'er's eyes flashed with dazzling light: "Is there anyone else close to him in Qinghe Town?"
Xiangling shook her head and said, "No, this Liu Yijin is an orphan."
Cui Ying'er frowned slightly: "It seems we can only think of other ways."
Xiang Ling suddenly turned red and said, "But I heard that Liu Yijin's three wives were all his mothers-in-law, and they were the daughters-in-law of landlord Zhou Papi."
"Oh?" Cui Yinger's face showed a hint of shock: "I didn't expect this guy to have such great abilities."
Xiang Ling snorted: "I think he is just a big pervert!"
"And there are several women around him."
"Really?" Cui Ying'er rolled her eyes and whispered: "We'll have to think of a good solution."
Cui Ying'er looked at the entrance of the alley where Liu Yijin had just left: "Let's go there first."
...
Miao Ling yawned and walked out of the room. The chaotic footsteps outside made her face look confused. As soon as she walked to the door, she saw a man landing in front of her.
Just as Miao Ling was about to speak, the man whispered, "Master Long sent me here."
Miao Ling breathed a sigh of relief and pointed outside doubtfully.
The man stretched out his hand to stop her, then stood quietly at the door and listened for a while. When the footsteps gradually left, the man turned around and looked at Miao Ling: "The person who lives across the street is dead."
Miao Ling was stunned: "Why did she die? That was my best friend. I want to go over and see her."
"If you go there now, you're guaranteed to be arrested by Liu Yijin."
Miao Ling was a little confused.
"Your friend betrayed you, just for a thousand taels." The man took out a stack of banknotes from his arms: "She sold your information to Liu Yijin, and you are now the target of their surveillance. .”
Miao Ling's face turned pale: "Why, why did she do this to me?"
The man sneered: "She said you are from Maitreya Buddhism."
Miao Ling's expression suddenly changed: "Impossible, how is it possible?"
"It can't be important anymore. I came to see you just to tell you that you can die."
The man raised his head and stabbed Miao Ling's heart with a dagger.
Seeing Miao Ling slowly falling to the ground, the man sneered, directly picked up Miao Ling's body and walked towards the house.
The man looked at the body lying on the bed, lit the huozhezi, and threw it away.
At this time, Cui Ying'er and Xiang Ling happened to be passing by.
"It smells like fire."
Cui Ying'er looked at the thick smoke rising from the courtyard wall, kicked the door open, and suddenly a figure came out. Cui Ying'er knocked the man away with a palm of her hand, and stabbed out the sword in her hand.
The man glanced at Cui Ying'er indifferently: "Maitreya Buddha is doing something, if you don't want to die, get out of here!"
When Cui Ying'er heard that she was from Maitreya Buddhism, she immediately became furious: "You damn bastards!"
The long sword in his hand, like a spiritual snake, directly stabbed the man's shoulder. The man was in pain. He picked up the things around him and threw them at Cui Ying'er. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the man's figure jumped over the wall and fled.
Cui Ying'er and the other two chased away directly.
Cui Ying'er casually took out a hidden weapon and stabbed the man in the shoulder, then jumped up and kicked the man to the ground.
Cui Ying'er held the long sword in her hand: "If you don't want to die, just be honest."
.....
Cui Ying'er tied him up directly and threw him to Xiang Ling: "We need to find a place to hide him first."
"Miss, he is just a member of Maitreya Buddhism. Can't we just kill him?"
Cui Ying'er shook her head: "Maitreya Buddhism wants to destroy our village, but Long Yu and Liu Yijin are not good people either."
"This time I am going to use Maitreya Buddhism as bait to lure Liu Yijin out."
"What do you want to do, Miss?"
Cui Ying'er's eyes flashed with cold light: "It's best to let Liu Yijin throw himself into the trap."
