Chapter 47: Murder pays for life
It wasn't until Han Hongwen's figure completely disappeared in front of Chen Guyu's eyes that he woke up suddenly, but his face was still full of doubts, not only because of the conversations that were revealed enough to shock the world, but also because of the doubts about this person's identity.

Who is he?
If it was before, Chen Guyu might have thought that this was really just a chance encounter, but now everything shows that this is a premeditated wait, Han Hongwen is waiting for him here, or waiting for someone worthy of him to say these words, not any ordinary person can let him reveal this, what he has to wait for is enough to shock the world, for example, a young man with the Thunder Sutra.
Chen Guyu sat there silently, looking at the enchanting lotus on the pond not far away, he was thinking about those conversations just now, he didn't know how much of those things were true and how fake, and he couldn't even figure out Han Hongwen's identity, after thinking about it for a long time, he finally gave up.
He sighed softly, finally shook his head, and said to himself with a wry smile: "That's it, it doesn't matter who he is, everything has nothing to do with me, I'm just an ordinary person, just be content with the ordinary." ”
He never had any great ambitions, and even as an amnesiac person, he didn't want to get his memories back.
When he got married that day, Sheng'er asked him about the past. Maybe there are relatives who are still alive in the world, maybe there are friends and partners, and maybe even when he lost his memory, he may have a lover of life and death, and now he is waiting for him. For these sensitive issues, Chen Guyu was just silent, he hugged Sheng'er, and then said: "I have died before, and now I only belong to you, and I only belong to this small family, so I don't want to recover my memory at all, and I don't want to stuff other people in my heart, if it's really like what you said, then I have to say sorry to them......"
Just like this time he came to this county town to participate in the martial arts, not because he had any desire to compete for fame and fortune, but only for a reason, it was to repay the knowledge of the lord of the Liu mansion, after the end, he would retreat bravely, he believed that the lord of the Liu mansion would understand him. And now there is another reason, to obtain that elixir, so that he and Sheng'er can really live and live together, as for what enters the Nine Profound Sects, what strength is powerful, that is not his dream, what he is asking for is just plain, a small dream.
Prior to this, Su Shenger's dream has always been to move into the inner city, she has lost her parents since she was a child, she is very stubborn in this regard, some people may say that this is also very utilitarian, but so what, she just wants to live better, and then Chen Guyu's appearance made everything complete, this is the fate given by God, she is content with the status quo, Chen Guyu also appreciates this kind of life, the little dream has been achieved, maybe the new dream in the future is to give birth to a pair of lovely children, and then raise them.
Thinking that he was about to have children, Chen Guyu couldn't help but smile deeply, then put his hands on it, lazy his waist, and leaned directly into the pavilion, resting quietly.
His gaze looked into the distance, saw the clouds outside the ancient pavilion, and finally closed his eyes.
He was here to relax, whether it was Han Sheng or Su Zi, in fact, it had nothing to do with him, he had no intention of provoking these, all he wanted was to end the martial arts conference quickly, get the pill and then go back to Ninghai to see his Sheng'er, Xiao Bie Sheng is newly married, not to mention Xiao Bie, not to mention Xiao Bie, who is newly married!
Time is long, with the departure of the last group of tourists, Kuaiyai Pavilion once again fell into tranquility, there is a breeze blowing the eaves of the pavilion, the ancient trees are rattling, but not noisy, as if there is a rhythm, playing the most beautiful music in the world.
The lotus flowers swayed gently in the pool, the water of the pond was clear and clear, a small grass, a bouquet of small flowers, as if they had life, and silently emitted their laughter.
Of course, all this is still as quiet in the outside world, without any abnormality, and only those who can really feel the true meaning of Kuaizaitei can discover the beauty in it.
The sun gradually slanted to the west, the sunset was like fire, Chen Guyu finally woke up, looked at the sky, and prepared to go back to the inn.
The sky is not completely dark, but there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the official road outside the city, there is no curfew in the county town on this important day, and the lights are bright, so it is still lively to enter the city at this moment, and the tourists are bustling one after another.
Chen Guyu was not interested in any of this, so he planned to go back to the inn and spend the night cultivating again. Although he has no doubts that he can win the martial arts, the combat skills that disappeared in his memory but are engraved in his heart, as well as his strong Dao power and powerful and rare Thunder Sutra make him have enough confidence, if someone can really block his way, then it is estimated that Luo Qianqian, but he is not worried, although Luo Qianqian is strong, he is not afraid, not to mention that judging from today's performance, Luo Qianqian does not seem to want to show her Thunder Sutra, in this way, he is enough to defeat her!
When I walked outside the inn, I found that it was already full of people.
It stands to reason that this is a school residential area specially divided by the county guard, which restricts the flow of people, and this is not the center of the city, how can there be so many people, could it be that something big happened?
With doubts, Chen Guyu walked up and asked an old man who was sighing outside the crowd.
The old man seemed to know what was going on, and when he heard Chen Guyu's question, he sighed heavily: "Alas, poor old building, I have been a good person all my life, but I didn't expect that in my old age, I would not be able to protect my old age." ”
Chen Guyu was shocked and frowned: "This uncle, are you talking about the shopkeeper in this inn?"
"Yes, there is such a building around here. ”
"What happened to the shopkeeper, why can't you say that the evening is not guaranteed?"
"Ahem, the government has come to the government, according to what they said, the official is here to arrest the murderer. ”
Chen Guyu quietly clenched his fists, a little incredulous, his dark brows furrowed even tighter, he glanced at the inn surrounded by the people, just half a day ago, the shopkeeper of the building was also enthusiastic to point him out where to visit, why did he suddenly become a murderer now?
"Dare to ask the uncle, what did the shopkeeper commit, why did he suddenly become a murderer? In my impression, the shopkeeper has always been a kind person, and he doesn't forcibly expel the beggars who beg in the inn on weekdays, how can he kill people!"
The old man glanced at Chen Guyu: "So, Xiaoyou also knows the old building?"
Chen Guyu was silent for a moment: "I live in it." ”
"It turned out to be a cultivator, and the little old man didn't know how to be respectful and humble, so he was offended. ”
The old man was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly wanted to get up and salute, he was just an ordinary old man, although he knew that the cultivators in the world were very close to them, but he had also heard that many cultivators were tyrannical, and he didn't dare to be disrespectful at all.
Chen Guyu stopped him and said, "Uncle, you better tell me what happened, if there is any grievance in it, I can still help." ”
"Thank you, sir. The old man sighed and said slowly: "Actually, this is also to blame Lao Lou himself, his character is destined to suffer a big loss, kindness, doesn't he know that the kind people in this world are actually the most difficult to survive?"
"Please elaborate. ”
"The cause of the incident is just a few days ago, Lao Lou has a son, who lives not far away, and makes a living by selling baked cakes, although he doesn't make much money, but because he inherited his father's character, he is honest and honest, so he also successfully married a good wife, and the family is harmonious and beautiful, and respects each other like guests. But the day before yesterday, something happened. There was an injured beggar outside their house, the beggar wanted to steal their things, and was caught, but Xiaolou did not send the beggar to the official out of kindness, but took the beggar to see the doctor, and took the initiative to give him some food, the beggar also repented, full of gratitude, and kowtowed three times on the ground before leaving. ”
"Isn't that good?" Chen Guyu wondered.
"Yes, normal people are indeed grateful, but that beggar is actually an injured thief, on the surface grateful to Dade, but he has already set his eyes on the property of Xiaolou's family, he carefully observed the habits of Xiaolou's family, and finally found the opportunity to sneak into Xiaolou's house. ”
Speaking of this, the old man's face was not as kind as before, but full of resentment, obviously because of what happened to his old friend's family.
Chen Guyu had already thought of what might happen, and said in a deep voice: "Then what?"
"The beggar guessed right, there was indeed no one in Xiaolou's house at that time on ordinary days, but today it was unfortunate, because there were more tourists, and the baked cakes were sold out quickly, Xiaolou They had to go home early, and then they specially asked the shopkeeper to send fabrics, ready to make more money during the martial arts conference......"
"As a result, they met. The beggar climbed over the wall with a knife, but saw Xiaolou's family who were about to leave for the market again, although Xiaolou was kind, but not stupid, how did he not understand what this beggar wanted to do, and fought with him in a rage, just how could an ordinary person beat a thief with a knife, Xiaolou was brutally killed, and even his wife was finally ruined by the thief......"
Chen Guyu took a deep breath, was silent, and said softly after a long time: "But what does this have to do with the shopkeeper, and who did he kill?"
"It's that thief, that bastard is really bold, after killing Xiaolou's family, he actually squatted there, ready to destroy the door, sure enough, let him wait until he went to find his son's shopkeeper, and the result was ...... Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper came out safely, but the thief had already died......"
Speaking of this, the old man's face also brought up a lot of doubts, and he couldn't figure it out. Xiao Lou was strong and strong, but in the end, he still didn't survive a few moves, how could an old man who was the shopkeeper of the building kill the thief. It's just that the facts have been decided, the human and material evidence are there, and the government is coming, and everything is doomed.
Chen Guyu shook his head: "The shopkeeper is indeed capable of killing that thief." ”
Others don't know, but Chen Guyu still knows, not long after they checked into the inn, one night, the lord of the Liu Mansion and the shopkeeper of the building had a very happy conversation, and they appreciated his kind heart, so they sent a talisman to defend the shopkeeper of the building, and the talisman was released with all his might, which was equivalent to a full blow on the seventh page of the scriptures, how could a mere thief be able to stop it!
It's just that I didn't expect that this talisman would work so quickly, or in such a miserable way......
Chen Guyu looked at the inn not far away, and suddenly said: "But in this way, although the shopkeeper killed someone, he killed the person who should be killed, so is this also a murderer?"
The old man smiled bitterly beside him: "Your Excellency may not know the laws of this city, in fact, the laws are roughly the same all over the country, killing pays for life, no matter who you kill, killing is wrong after all, you must be punished, since ancient times, it has been the same." ”
"Does murder pay for life?"
Chen Guyu muttered, "Even if it's a heinous person?"
"Yes, according to an old man in the imperial capital, everyone has his right to live, no one can deprive him of it, and if he meets a heinous person, he can send him to the official, but if he is killed privately, then he will be paid. ”
Chen Guyu sighed and was silent.
At this time, a familiar voice suddenly appeared beside him, Han Hongwen was still wearing that white shirt, standing there quietly, but his tone was a little heavy: "Brother Chen, in your opinion, is it really right to kill people to pay for their lives?"
