Chapter 13: The Wolf's Den and the Tiger's Den 1
The darker moonlight is half a family, and the Beidou is dry and the Nandou is oblique. Tonight, I know that the spring is warm, and the sound of insects is new through the green curtain.
"What are you still standing there stupidly for! Why don't you hurry up and carry people out and bury them!" Seeing that the four of them didn't move, the eldest brother became a little angry and lowered his voice and scolded angrily.
"Big big big ......" Lao Qi, who was standing by the door, suddenly opened his eyes in horror, pointed at the big brother and stammered and shouted, but after shouting for a long time, he only shouted out one "big" word.
"What's big, it's big! Even the eldest brother won't be called......" The thunderous voice resounded in this small courtyard.
Seeing that Lao Qi couldn't speak like a fish in his throat, the boss became more angry, and he was no longer suppressed, and immediately yelled at Lao Qi. However, the last word "?" was swallowed back into his stomach in the next moment.
Mechanically bowing his head, Yu looked at the white palm holding his right foot under the faint moonlight, and the eldest brother immediately screamed in fright, startling the two horses outside the courtyard to neigh.
Inside the house, I saw that the eldest brother rolled his eyes and lay on the ground, but he was stunned!
The fourth child, who had been standing beside Lin Zhiwu, also looked down at the ground at the moment when the eldest brother fainted-
But I saw that Lin Zhiwu, who had been lying at his feet without moving, was grabbing their eldest brother's right ankle with one hand, and the other hand was stretching towards his ankle, seeing that he was about to grab his ankle!
Seeing this scene, the fourth child could no longer pretend to be calm, and immediately exclaimed in surprise and fell back to the ground.
With his palms propped up behind him, the fourth child shouted "don't come" over and over again, while stepping back with his hands and feet.
However, how could Lin Zhiwu let him dodge lightly?
I saw that Lin Zhiwu's palm was quickly stretched out, and he had firmly grasped the right ankle of the fourth child.
Seeing that the two "dead people" had deceived the corpses, the eldest brother and the fourth brother were also grabbed by the ankles of the corpses, and the remaining five people were stunned and stunned.
In just a moment, there were only the eldest brother who had fainted earlier and the other two fainted people in the entire wooden house, and the only fourth brother who was not lightly frightened but did not faint.
Letting go of the hand that was holding the ankle of the eldest brother and the fourth brother who had fainted, Lin Zhiwu rolled over and got up.
Looking at Lin Xiaoyang, who was still lying on the bed, Lin Zhiwu smiled and asked, "Lin Gongzi, how is it?
Lin Xiaoyang raised his hand to hold the jade pendant that the eldest brother put back on him, reluctantly sat up with his hands, looked at the person who was dizzy, and said with a smile: "It's funny, it's the first time I've grown so big and scared people like this!"
Hearing this, Lin Zhiwu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What the master said is really right, Lin Gongzi is really a child!
If he hadn't wanted to know what the purpose of the people who poisoned them was, he wouldn't have used such unscrupulous tricks.
Although torture to extract confessions will also yield results, it is ultimately impossible to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
If these people have the intention to deceive, Lin Zhiwu is worried that if they are tortured to extract confessions, they are afraid that it will backfire.
Lin Zhiwu took out a fire fold and blew it out, and out of nowhere, he conjured a white candle with a thick thumb and a palm, and lit it on the wooden table in the center of the room.
In an instant, the room became brighter, and the faces of those people could be seen clearly.
Although the eldest brother who fainted at the beginning was slender and long, he had a fierce appearance with a beard, which looked really weird.
The old four were not tall, with a mediocre appearance, a row of thick black beards under their noses and between their upper lips, and a pair of eyes that were shrewd in fear.
The other two fainted people were also unremarkable.
These four people are just public faces, and there is no anger between their eyebrows and eyes, but Lin Zhiwu recognized them at a glance-
These four people were one of those people who sat at the entrance of the village and chatted when Lin Zhiwu and Lin Xiaoyang entered the village in the evening!
"What are you looking for?" Lin Zhiwu slowly walked up to the fourth child who was still in a state of panic and looked at him coldly.
"You, you, why are you ......" pointed to Lin Zhiwu standing in front of him in horror, and the old four couldn't say a word.
Lin Zhiwu understood what the fourth child wanted to say, so he explained lightly: "It is true that we did eat the noodles you prepared, but it does not mean that we will definitely be poisoned to death." Where there is restraint, poison will have an antidote. ”
It wasn't until this moment, after listening to Lin Zhiwu's words, that the fourth child gradually came to his senses, and only then did he understand that the two people in front of him were not cheating corpses, but they were not poisoned at all!
Could it be providence? They have been cautious for so many years, and there will still be a time when they will be careless!
"What are you looking for? Why do you poison and kill people?" Seeing that the fourth child sat on the ground for a long time without speaking, Lin Zhiwu asked coldly again.
Seeing the fourth child's situation, and thinking about the conversation between the seven of them at the beginning, it is not difficult for Lin Zhiwu to guess that before him and Lin Xiaoyang, many people must have been killed!
Lin Zhiwu felt very strange, what was it that made these people look for it so harmfully?
The fourth child tried his best to calm down the frightened mind before looking up at Lin Zhiwu, slowly shaking his head, his voice still trembling after the fright: "I, I don't know......"
As if he was afraid of saying this, Lin Zhiwu didn't believe it, and the fourth brother raised his hand and pointed to the eldest brother who had fainted and died: "My eldest brother knows! Among our seven brothers, only my eldest brother knows what he is looking for!"
Glancing at the big brother who fell to the ground and fainted and his face was pale, Lin Zhiwu shook his head helplessly-
I didn't scare them if I knew it, seven big men, I didn't want to be so intimidated!
It seems that the only way to know what they are looking for is to wait for the man to wake up.
While waiting for the eldest brother to wake up naturally, Lin Zhiwu was not idle, and kept interrogating the fourth child, and finally figured out the reason why they poisoned and killed people.
It turned out that these seven people who were called brothers were all villagers in this village.
Originally, the life of the villagers in this village was very uneventful, working every day at sunrise and resting at sunset, and the neighbors were in harmony.
However, since four years ago, their village has changed dramatically.
At first, a man in strange clothes came to their village and asked them to help them find something that was both jade and metal.
The man told the villagers to poison all those who passed by their village and who looked like martial arts practitioners with swords and swords, and then searched them to find what the man wanted.
At first, the villagers refused to agree to this kind of sinful thing, and the Tao was detrimental to yin morality.
But the man killed nearly half of the women and children in their village on the spot, saying that if they did not agree, they would be their fate.
Because he was afraid of that person, the village chief had no choice but to take them and the villagers agreed.
The man also promised them that if they found what the man wanted, their village would be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold.
After that, the man picked the man with the best memory in their village, the eldest of the seven brothers, and showed him a drawing.
The man said that if he saw something like what was drawn on a drawing, he would keep it and wait for that person to pick it up.
Afterwards, before leaving, the man left a large bag of white powder for the villagers, saying that just a little fingernail was enough to poison five adult strong men every time.
At first, the villagers did not dare to use the powder left for them by the man, and only used the sweat medicine that they had bought in the city.
As a result, this matter somehow became known to that person, who came to their village and killed a dozen people.
And threatened that if they are disobedient again, or want to report to the officials, escape, or relocate, that person will directly slaughter the village!
Later, the village chief chose seven people, including them and the boss who looked at the picture, to be responsible for searching the bodies of passers-by after being poisoned, and then carrying the bodies to the cliffs of the back mountain and throwing them away.
Since then, the people of their village have really embarked on the road of poisoning and killing people to find things.
However, four years later, the villagers poisoned more than 100 people, but they never found what the person wanted, which made the villagers more and more panicked.
But for some reason, the man didn't blame them, he just let them keep poisoning and looking for them.
Now, I am afraid that under the cliff of the mountain behind this village, it has long been full of white bones.
As for the person who forced the villagers to do such an unreasonable deed-
Gu Lao Si said that every time that person appeared, he was dressed in a black cloak, and his head and face were tightly covered, making it completely impossible to see his appearance.
Listening to that person's voice seems to be a man, but the voice is really hoarse and ugly, making it impossible to distinguish between men and women.
Just after Lin Zhiwu clarified the reason for the incident, the eldest brother also woke up faintly.
The moment he saw Lin Zhiwu standing in front of him, the eldest brother's eyes rolled and he was about to faint in fright.
Fortunately, the fourth child was clever, and immediately stepped forward to pinch the eldest brother's person so that he couldn't faint.
"Please spare a few of our brothers, please don't really want to kill you! We are all forced to be helpless, please let us go! If you want revenge, go to the real creditor! Please let us go......" Looking at Lin Zhiwu with a frosty face, the eldest brother suddenly turned over and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and crying.
"Okay, what's the point of a big man crying!!You don't feel ashamed!" was a little upset and irritable by the big brother who was crying and begging for mercy, and Lin Zhiwu finally couldn't help but scold.
Frightened by such a scolding, the eldest brother immediately sobbed, didn't dare to cry anymore, looked up at Lin Zhiwu with his eyes, and begged Lin Zhiwu to let the seven of them go.
"What are you looking for?" Lin Zhiwu asked that question again, only this time it was the big brother with a full beard.
Hearing Lin Zhiwu's question, the eldest brother's face immediately turned a little whiter, and the blood on his face faded.
Despite this, the eldest brother shook his head again and again and waved his hand, "No! We're not looking for anything! We're just making money......
