Chapter 3: Damnation by the River
Sang Tian touched his nose, poured another glass of water, took the cup in his hand and turned it around for a long time, thought about it, and then hesitated slightly: "There are outsiders, but they come and go, and no one stays for a long time." I thought about it for a long time www.biquge.info speaking of which, there is an inconspicuous good hall in the town, and it is said that two days ago someone donated a very small ingot of gold, the amount is very small, and it is folded into silver, that is, less than two taels. Because there were so few of them, I didn't take it seriously at the time. After all, if you really want to start with any wind and waves, it won't be like that. ”
Shen Jinyu doubted: "Gold? Ordinary households, the annual consumption is almost twenty taels of silver, two taels is really not much, but the people who use gold are not much, can you know who donated it? Is there any uproar about this now? ”
Sang Tian said: "That's not it, it's just that a few people occasionally say that, the amount is not big, it's just that the gold is a little strange, I saw it at the time, the person who donated this gold is a teacher in the village, and he has tried and failed, and he wants to donate some money in exchange for some luck." Although he is not a local, he has lived in the village for more than ten years, I haven't said this before, first, it won't be so long to arrange this person, second, he is a foreign surname, you know outsiders, even if there is something, it is not easy to make a big fuss. The clans here are intertwined, and we still have to be more careful of the locals. ”
Shen Jinyu nodded and said, "What you said is right, but for no reason, gold will be used, I always feel weird, so I should be careful." Let them go and find out in the evening what the gold is, and the teacher should keep an eye on him, and if there is no accident, the two of us will leave first tomorrow morning. ”
Sang Tian understood, and then went back to the room to rest.
Early the next morning, the two men left the room, rode their horses and left.
The residents of Heyin Town know that the nearby Yellow River embankment is relatively easy to break, so in addition to the government, there are villagers who spontaneously inspect it.
It turned out that the gold donated last time was a golden hairpin he picked up near the embankment, and he twisted a little bit to take it, and Mr. Wei couldn't keep the secret, and gradually admitted that he wanted to do some good deeds and change his good luck to make himself famous.
The villagers were a little unable to hold back, and occasionally some people began to go to the river to try their luck, and gradually there were rumors that there were shipwrecked antiques flowing with the river to the vicinity, and they could pick up valuable things by going to the river.
Unfortunately, the terrible thing is that there are more and more people, and they are not just picking up, and many people start to dig the river embankment with hoes, and the situation suddenly becomes serious.
Someone stopped them, but they couldn't stop them at all, and the people nearby gradually heard the news, and the whole village was in chaos.
Mr. Wei also joined these people, but on this day, suddenly he went crazy in the evening, and first scratched his face and body with his nails and ran all over the street, and then someone said that he must have picked up the golden hairpin by the river and brought the river ghost home.
In addition to scratching himself, he also beat people when he saw them, and outsiders did not dare to approach them at all, and damaged a lot of property, and everywhere he went was bloodstained and a mess.
Everyone else ran away, but Mr. Wei's wife was not afraid of his madness, and when he ran out of strength, she went around behind him, secretly knocked him unconscious, and carried him home with her son.
After the doctor saw it, he couldn't see the reason, so the family had to tie him up, wanting to wait until dawn the next day to find the goddess to see if he could make Mr. Wei better in other ways.
Who would have thought that in the night, Mr. Wei went crazy, and with so much strength, he broke free from the rope, and then hacked his wife and son to death with a knife, and the house caught fire, and even burned several surrounding houses.
This thing was too miserable, and it hurt a lot of villagers, and destroyed a lot of things, and everyone died in the heart of looking for gold by the river, several major clans united, and the county Cheng together, a good patrol, afraid that someone would be greedy, especially afraid that people from other counties would come to dig the embankment, and even bring their own village to suffer the curse of God, and harm the people of a village.
On the night of Mr. Wei's death, late at night, three masked black-clothed people arrived at his house, even if Shen Jinyu had been to a lot of bloody places, but those people were not directly because of her relationship, now, these people are all orders given by her, originally thought that it was for the sake of righteousness that she gave up these few people to protect the villagers on the embankment of the Yellow River, but when she really saw it, she was still very unbearable in her heart.
She and Sangtian Wu You watched this scene, and found the golden hairpin that caused the accident at the bottom of the box, this hairpin style is very ordinary, and it was twisted away for a short time, it should be a small ingot from the donation hall, and it was carefully wrapped in cloth.
There is a wrong, and there is a debtor.
What I have to do today, I will definitely give you an explanation in the future.
Wu You sprinkled a small amount of tung oil on the wooden furniture and bed, and motioned for Sang Tian to take Shen Jinyu away.
Just as he was taking out the fire fold and lighting the fire, Shen Jinyu suddenly whispered: "Wait." ”
Wu You frowned, a little displeased, what's going on? Didn't you tell me a thousand times before I came, I don't know what the situation will be, don't say a word at this scene, although they are all dead people, but it is not too prudent to do this kind of thing.
Shen Jinyu walked to the side of the child-shaped corpse and whispered, "He's still alive, I watched him move just now." ”
Wu You put away the fire fold, took out the dagger, and was about to make up for it again, when Shen Jinyu's hand blocked it.
Wu You looked at Shen Jinyu, his eyes full of doubts.
The child was originally unconscious, but when he just woke up, he moved a little, and was discovered by Shen Jinyu, he saw that he couldn't escape, closed his eyes and reached out with all his strength to grab Shen Jinyu's trouser legs. Shen Jinyu looked at the child carefully, slowly squatted down, couldn't bear it, and said to Sang Tian: "Take it away." ”
Sang Tian shook his head slightly, and Shen Jinyu nodded very affirmatively: "Take it away." ”
Sang Tian looked at Wu You, and the two of them forced Shen Jinyu with their eyes together, she was a little angry, and said the third time: "Take it away." ”
Sang Tian understands Shen Jinyu's persistence, she is a soft-hearted and cowardly person, but she insists now, and she is also very stubborn, she can't, she reached out and slashed the child with a knife and left first.
Wu You set the fire, and together with Shen Jinyu, disappeared into the vast night.
When they arrived at the place where the three of them met, Sang Tian had already bandaged the child's wounds, and Shen Jinyu found their usual pills from Wu You and poured them into him.
Wu You couldn't help it, and stopped Shen Jinyu outside the room and said, "Master, what are you doing here?" Such a revenge for destroying the family, you save him, this is a woman's kindness. ”
