The lonely night is bleak, and the moon shadow is cool. The two of them led Shuofeng to visit the window lattices of the residents of Qiman Town, but they were ruthlessly rejected, and only one iron window reluctantly accepted their visit.

He Xiu's clothes were beaten to shreds with sticks, and the only thing that could keep out the cold in the prison was a pile of smelly grass in the corner, and the old man grabbed the tail of a mouse and dangled it in front of He Xiu's eyes, laughing in the process.

He Xiu, who has always been kind-hearted, had bloodshot eyes in his eyes at this time, snatched the mouse with both hands, and chewed it fiercely.

The old man stopped playing, looked at He Xiu's angry appearance stillly, and said, "Hey, shake your head silly boy, did you really eat it?" and then laughed.

"Let me out!" He Xiu spoke for the first time after swallowing the rat.

"Hey, shake your head silly boy, can you talk? I think you're really dumb? hehe. The old man said in surprise.

"Let me out!" He Xiu repeated the four words just now.

"Let you out?wahaha, shake your head silly boy, do you know that this mouse was raised by Lao Tzu in the summer to relieve boredom, and you eat it now, Lao Tzu has no boring things, so you have to stay and replace it." The old man said in a commanding tone.

"Let me out!"

"I said shake your head silly boy, you are really stupid, if I can let you out, can I still stay here and play with the mouse? The old man said.

He Xiu suddenly jumped up, pressed the old man under him, grabbed his neck with both hands, trembled all over, and said with spittle, "Let me out!"

The old man's legs kicked in the air, and his hands grabbed He Xiu's hands, just squeezing out a gap; Child... DID YOU KNOW... Respect the old and love the young?"

"Let me out!" He Xiu used all his strength to hold the old man and refused to let go, after a while, his legs stopped kicking, his eyes dilated, and his tongue stuck out.

He Xiu was suddenly awakened by this scene, and he quickly got off him and tested the old man's nostrils with his trembling hands.

When he couldn't feel his snort, He Xiu leaned on his chest again and listened to the sound of his heart, but there was still no movement.

He Xiu hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, and said in a panic, "Don't blame the old man, I... I fell into a demon and killed you by mistake..."

He Xiu only kowtowed to apologize, and unconsciously knocked out a bloody hole on his forehead.

"Wowhaha, okay, I'll forgive you!"

Suddenly, the old man sat up and laughed heartily, He Xiu was so shocked that he took more than three steps back, and it took a long time to come to his senses and said tentatively, "Old man, could it be that you were just now..."

"Hehe, shake your head silly boy, fortunately you were injured, otherwise Lao Tzu's life would really be in your hands. The old man touched his neck and said.

"Just now, the junior was obsessed with demons, and he regarded the old gentleman as an enemy for a while, so he did something offensive to you, and I ask you to forgive me. He Xiu knelt on the ground and apologized vigorously.

"Hehe, shake your head silly boy, I just said to forgive you, why are you still kowtowing, come, help Lao Tzu press his legs, I was a little back tendon just now. The old man said as he lay down on the ground, waiting to enjoy himself.

He Xiu tore off a piece of fabric from his clothes, bandaged his forehead simply, and knelt down in front of the old man to press his legs.

"Hey, shake your head silly boy, what did you do to get in?" said the old man, clasping his ears with a look of enjoyment.

"I... Kill... Person. He Xiu said.

"What?" the old man snapped and pulled his legs out, "you kid stay away from me." ”

"No, no, no, I mean I was wronged by them, caught in the name of murder. He Xiu explained as soon as possible.

"Oh, hey, hey. The old man stretched out his legs again, clasped his nostrils, and said, "Come, press again, press the same force as before." ”

"I don't know why the old gentleman came here?" He Xiu asked.

The old man scraped his teeth with his little thumb and said casually, "Haha, Lao Tzu ate one of their Guo family's yard dogs, and then came in." ”

When He Xiu heard such a reason, he remembered that when he first met Guo Zhenxing, he also used a vicious dog as a metaphor for him, and couldn't help laughing.

"Hey, shake your head silly boy, are you laughing at Lao Tzu?" the old man questioned.

"Don't dare, don't dare, I just remembered something similar to the old gentleman and couldn't help but laugh. He Xiu said sincerely.

"Hehe, you kid, it's weird and interesting, Lao Tzu told you, Lao Tzu said to forgive you, but he didn't say not to compensate. The old man said with a wicked smile.

He Xiu hurriedly pinched his shoulders and said, "I don't know what compensation the old gentleman wants, I will definitely be satisfied." ”

"Hehe, shake your head silly boy, from today onwards, you have to help me do a full-body massage, and if there is any physical work, you have to mention Lao Tzu to share it. Until Lao Tzu is satisfied, you know?" After speaking, he stretched his feet in the air.

He Xiu thought to himself, a gray-haired old man was almost killed by himself, and now it is appropriate to make some compensation, so he pressed his feet again.

He Xiu heard the old man snoring, so he stopped massaging, covered him with all the grass, and curled up in the corner to check his injuries.

He Xiu found that except for the faint labor pain, there seemed to be no major problem, so he put away his sadness and began to analyze everything that happened today.

I don't know the background of Huipenglou, but judging from daily observation and what the owner told him, no one should dare to kill in broad daylight, but on the other hand, I think that Huipenglou's business is the most popular restaurant in Qiman Town, which will inevitably cause jealousy among peers and lead to death.

On the other hand, there is his personal grudge with Guo Zhenxing, as well as Xiao Daoren, who was injured by the bell, and finally the scar that was humiliated by himself, all of whom are suspected of murder.

He Xiu excluded Scar for the time being, because he knew that it was okay to ask Scar to bully civilians, but if he killed someone, it was unlikely.

The only thing left is Guo Zhenxing and Xiao Daoren, as well as the peers in the restaurant industry in Qiman Town.

After He Xiu sorted out his thoughts, he began to worry about the whereabouts of the bell.

If it is really taken by Guo Zhenxing and Xiao Daoren, he will definitely be unable to escape death, with the red willow leaves in Xiao Daoren's hands, no one in Qiman Town is his opponent, when the time comes, Guo Zhenxing will be even more arrogant than now, and many people's blood and sweat will be squeezed dry by him.

Of the two, He Xiu could only choose to prevent Guo Zhenxing and his gang from finding the bell, as for the latter, he knew that he was famous, and he couldn't do it.

He remembered that when he saw Anu's body today, he didn't find a bell around his neck.

This bell was given to him by himself, and it has truly become a witness to the descendants of the He family, and Anu will definitely wear it with him.

Then, since the bell disappeared, it must have been taken by Guo Zhenxing and his gang. What's more, he carries his dagger around his waist every day, and almost everyone in the entire Qiman Town knows that he has such a dagger.

From here, He Xiu concluded that Guo Zhenxing was the killer behind the scenes, using this dagger to make himself a scapegoat.

The final answer has surfaced, and He Xiu secretly made up his mind that he had to take revenge.

I don't know how long I slept, but the shouts of the officials pulled He Xiu back from his dream, and before He Xiu could get up, he was dragged to the execution room by two officials.

The four officials tied He Xiu's hands and legs apart with a finger-thick hemp rope on a 'door' shaped utensil.

He Xiu saw a pile of vigorous firewood in front of him, and an iron tool like an axe was roasted on it.

The four officials stood proudly on either side with their hands on their hips, spit quickly, and picked up the axe-like utensils.

He Xiu saw that the top of the iron was a burnt red iron plate.

Catch quickly stepped forward and said with a dark face, "Boy, you are resistant to fighting, I have been doing fast hunting for so many years, and I have never seen you with such hard bones. ”

He Xiu looked at Ah Niu with a pothole on his face and a hideous face viciously, and did not answer.

It's not that I'm not afraid, but I know that I have no choice, and in that case, let's let the storm come more violently.

Seeing that He Xiu still refused to speak, Ah Niu wanted to press the iron plate on He Xiu's chest.

"Wait!"
