Chapter 8: Murder and Injustice
In the wilderness, in a ruined temple.
"Stupid...... What do you mean by that? Lang Xi asked.
Jun Wu looked at him: "If my guess is correct, under your fanfare to welcome relatives and seek the murderer, the government must know about this matter." This little brother ...... Who do you think the government wants right now? ”
"Little brother?" Lang Xi pointed to himself, which was an interesting title...... But this girl is only how old! Lang Xi sat up straight, looked at Jun Yao and Wang on the side, and his eyes flashed.
The little brother on the side seemed to understand a little more and shouted, "Ah! Not good big brother...... We dug up the Gao family in front of so many people, and the Wang family and the little lady are gone, it is obvious that they did this murder! ”
The ruffian patted his head: "Yes! Then I'm going to chase the little lady back to be a daughter-in-law, wouldn't I have to suffer a joint crime?! "Liang Guo is guilty of harboring the murderer, and the criminal law is harsh. The ruffian was originally afraid of death, and he immediately became frightened.
He stepped forward and waved his hand at Lang Xi and said, "Second brother! I don't want to be imprisoned for murder, I won't marry this mother-in-law! ”
Lang Xi was stunned, glanced at Jun Wu, who was silent, and then smiled slowly at the ruffian.
The ruffian was stunned by his laughter, and saw the second brother pointing to Jun Wu: "Since the small one can't be married, then marrying the big one will always work!"
Seeing that the ruffian looked dazed and didn't seem to understand, Lang Xi reminded again: "Big brother, this eldest daughter of the Gao family is dead, and the government will never suspect a dead person."
The ruffian slapped his head suddenly, and finally understood! His eyes were bright, he stepped forward and grabbed Lang Xi's hand hard, and said movingly: "Second brother, you are so talented!"
Lang Xi pulled out one finger and one finger: "Big brother, ...... the prize"
Turn around! The ruffian looked at Jun Wu with a malicious look and smiled: "Hehe! Big lady! I don't mind a replacement! ”
Jun Yao stood up excitedly: "Don't!" My sister shouldn't marry you as a bad person! Jun Yao said, although she was stopped by Wang's hug, she still struggled to stand up, wanting to protect her sister.
Jun Wu glanced at her and said quietly, "A-Yao, stay quietly."
"But......" Jun Yao touched Sister A's determined gaze, and her heart trembled.
Lowering her head, she thought slightly, looked at her, nodded obediently, and sat down slowly.
"I'm afraid, you still can't marry." Jun Wu's eyes were thoughtful, soaked with a hint of apologetic smile.
Ruffian: "Why!?" ”
The younger brothers also started talking.
Langxi: "Heh......" thought it was just a trick for her to beat her to death.
But Jun Wu explained: "Because, my death is not overboard. Rather, it kills! After a pause, she looked at her and finally figured out who could decide the situation here, the little brother who had a kind of evil ruffian and lazy temperament all over his body.
"I don't know if you've heard of it...... The underworld wife of the Thunder Mansion? ”
Lang Xi's eyes widened, tilting his head slightly, and then, a string broke in his head.
Little brother: "Wife of the Dead...... Old Madam Lei's little grandson's wife, is she talking about this......"
"How is that possible...... This woman obviously fell into the river and died! ”
Judging from Gao's usual style, it is indeed possible that he sold his daughter to a dead man as a daughter-in-law because of gambling debts! And Lei Mansion is the local lord with status and status, so it is reasonable for her to die inexplicably......"
"yes, yes."
The ruffian panicked when he heard this...... She's a dead wife...... Suddenly I didn't have the idea of marrying her at all, I just felt unlucky! But just let them go...... The gambling debts owed by the Gao family, he felt that it was not worth it!
Lang Xi stood up, turning back and forth around Jun Wu, looking up and down at her.
Jun Wu's eyes drifted: "What are you doing......"
Lang Xi: "As far as I know, Lei Mansion also secretly got a lot of wives before, and for some reason, they were all released. Many of them are sent to the kiln, but in the end they are still alive. It's just you, dead. ”
The ruffian and the little brothers looked at Lang Xi, and it was strange to be said by him!
Lang Xi continued: "Explain that you must meet 'certain conditions', or...... He offended the troublemaker. Since you're dead, you shouldn't be in another grave next to Young Master Lei's grave......" Lang Xi poked Jun Wu's face, "but you have become a living person...... How? Lang Xi's words followed his thoughts, and his thoughts turned around for an unknown number of turns...... He suddenly looked at Jun Wu with some surprise and said his guess: "Could it be that you crawled out of the grave?" ”
Jun Wu raised his eyebrows and looked at this ruffian: This person has an excellent head......
Hearing Lang Xi's inference, the ruffians unconsciously moved away from Jun Wu.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Lang Xi made up his mind: "I see, that's ......"
Looking at her, he touched his chest and said to her: "At this moment, I have some appreciation for you, but ......" Lang Xi stretched out his hand: "I can neither marry you nor marry your sister, then, your father's money will be paid back by you." ”
Jun Wu: "......"
Lang Xi scratched his head: "However, your family is so poor, do you have any money?" ”
Junwu: "......" waved his hand: "No." ”
"Ah...... That's how to do it. He began to circle around Junwu again, muttering alone, "Do you want to chop up the three of you and sell them to the pork shop in the east of the city?" Turning around, he asked the ruffian in a serious tone: "Big brother, how much is a pound of pork on the market now?" ”
Jun Wu: "......"
The Wang family behind him heard this: "Ah! screamed, "I don't want to be pork!" Her face turned terrified.
Wang Xie hooked his lips and smiled evilly.
"Mother......" Jun Yao shook her, "calm down!" ”
Wang suddenly looked at Jun Wu and pointed at her: "It's all you...... It's all you! You killed your biological father! Now you're here to harm us again, you evil star, you should be the one who should become dead pork! ”
Jun Yao shouted: "Mother, what are you talking about!?" ”
The content of Wang's harsh words shocked everyone.
Almost subconsciously, everyone turned their eyes to the woman who seemed to have been struggling to save her mother and sister.
And she...... With her head down at the moment, everyone couldn't see her expression, but they seemed to be able to understand her miserable mood. Somehow...... I always feel a little pitiful.
Lang Xi also looked at her, and for a moment, it was not worth it for her.
Inside the temple, there was silence.
For a moment, she looked up, her expression surprisingly ordinary.
The moment she looked up, Lang Xi stared at her face, which had no love at all, for some reason...... But there was a huge stone in his heart that fell into the heart lake, stirring up the tide for a while.
She took a deep breath and looked at Lang Xi: "Don't touch my family. ”
Looking at the crowd again, she said, "Since the matter has come to this...... Let's make a big deal to pay off the so-called, debts. ”
Jun Yao and Wang were still wanted in Qiu County, and because they could not be found in the city, they sent people to look for them outside the city. It can't be found outside the city, and the county order feels strange, and a few days have passed, because the autumn festival is coming, and the county order wants to put it aside for the time being.
But what I didn't expect was! Early in the morning, a woman came to beat the drum and voice her grievances, and when someone brought her into the court, the woman turned herself in again! And her identity is also very bizarre, it is actually Gao's deceased eldest daughter Junwu, she said that she killed his biological father, Gao.
The first county order is a brain, and it can't be turned around.
And this early in the morning, the county magistrate has never seen people who are so keen on the trial of the case...... For some reason, there were many more people inside and outside the court who came to see the trial.
"What's going on, why are so many people ......" The county magistrate wiped his sweat, he was sloppy in judging the case on weekdays, and there were so many viewers at one time, he was a little worried that his performance would be abnormal and affect his prestige.
The clerk on the side whispered: "I don't know...... My lord, you judge the case well and show your majesty! I see that this woman is quite beautiful, let's be easier, there are still a lot of things to be busy with in the autumn festival, she confessed our guilt and we pushed the boat to become her, anyway, what you want is ...... Hey! ”
The county commander turned to look at him and nodded with bright eyes!
Suddenly, he slapped the shocked wood, and he said: "Bold murderer, this official already knew that it was you!" Come on, pull it down and hit fifty, no, after thirty boards...... Pull into the dungeon and wait for disposal! "Afraid of damaging the beauty's flesh and skin, this county order felt that Jun Wu should remember him well, and silently sent an autumn wave.
Unexpectedly, Jun Wu raised his head and said, "Slow, my lord." Rong Minnu finished speaking. ”
The county magistrate wondered: "What else do you say?" ”
Jun Wu: "I turned myself in today and killed the Gao family, that's right." However, the drumming of the county government ...... What do adults think is generally used for? ”
County order: "When it is a grievance!" As he spoke, he looked at her more strangely.
Jun Wu nodded: "Yes, my lord!" The people's daughter has a death grievance and wants to be avenged. ”
The people talked about it for a while, and they just heard outside that there was a strange case to be decided in the county government today! Now it seems that it is likely to be true, and the case is extremely complicated at present......
"Didn't you turn yourself in, when did it become revenge again!" When it was time to test the intelligence of the county commander, he stood up excitedly and pointed at her with a headache.
When the people looked at it, the clerk hurriedly pressed his hand: "My lord, everyone is watching!" Prestige, prestige! ”
The county magistrate gritted his teeth and sat down impatiently.
Jun Wu closed his eyes and waited for him to ask, "Murderer!" Tell me what you have to do to avenge you! Only then did she slowly open her eyes, and those eyes were as clear as a mirror.
The county commander looked at her, and for some reason, she was suddenly frightened.
Jun Wu said eloquently: "I want to sue Qiu County Min Wu and Mrs. Lei of Lei Gongfu for human trafficking and homicide, ignoring the law of the Great Liang Kingdom, treating the king as a foot, and despising it!" ”
In the lobby, there was a bang.
The county magistrate stared at her with wide eyes, and after a while, he regained his voice, and couldn't help but ask, "You...... Who do you say you are suing!? ”
"Witches, Min; Lei Gongfu, Mrs. Lei. ”
"Min Wu and Mrs. Lei have become murderers, and the county court is trying strange cases, everyone go and see it......" For a while, I don't know who was running around on the street with such a news, which caused a commotion in the market.
As the Min witch who presides over the sacrifice in Qiu County every year, the living Bodhisattva Mrs. Lei, who is kind-hearted and often donates to help the poor people, is very well-known in Qiu County, and a very prestigious woman with a family background and background.
This time it was suddenly reported that the two of them had killed someone, so who dared to report them, it was worth taking a good look.
No, Qiu County walked almost half of the streets, and walked straight to the public court.
Wang Xie and Wei Feng bought some dry food to eat on the road and were about to leave Qiu County, but they heard such a news, and it was a little strange to see all the people of Qiu County running to the court.
Wei Feng is a curious baby who loves to join in the fun, looking at the momentum, he felt that something good must have happened, pulled Wang Xie's sleeve, and begged: "Childe!" Let's take a look! Just for a while, just for a while......" Wei Feng jumped happily in place, swaying all over...... 's appearance made Wang Xie's forehead twitch.
"Little Wind...... Normal point. ”
"Go and see! Son! Just for a while, just for a while...... Huh? ”
“……”
In this way, Wei Feng successfully chilled his son-in-law in the hard convulsions and cuteness of the second prisoner.
Wang Xie hugged his arms and went to the Qiu County Court with him.
In the Qiu County Court, at this time, several dusty women in Tsing Yi Lane were testifying for Junwu.
"My lord, we really don't want to be the grandwife of Old Lady Lei's family from Min Wu, so we have to be sold into the kiln by the witch for high gold! Your Excellency, you will avenge us! ”
"My lord, you want to avenge us!"
"My lord, Min Wu, Old Lady Lei is deeply guilty!"
The three young women cried and grabbed the ground, and they were already upset by the county order, but now it was good, their families also ran out of a group, and they cried and scolded together: "My lord, you want to avenge my daughter, I thought she was willing to fall, but I didn't expect her to endure such a big bullying, and the master of the blue sky is the master for us!" ”
"......Uhh Witches do evil! Bodhisattvas are demons! ”
"Your Excellency!"
Shocked Tang Mu clapped four or five times in a row: "Silence! Quiet! The county magistrate was sweating profusely as he watched this situation, which became out of control at some point......
No one paid attention to him, and the people were still crying and crying, and the people raised their fists excitedly and shouted: "Avenge the grievances!" Avengement! Avengement! ”
The county order sweated more and more, and I don't know how things developed to this point, trembling and trembling...... That Min Wu and Old Lady Lei are not ordinary people who can be offended! He was so confused, how could he despise this matter and think it was just a little woman's house......
The county commander looked at Jun Wu, the initiator who didn't say a word and had a calm face...... Unexpectedly, she not only stated it clearly, but also understood the law of Daliang very well, and she really presented the evidence of the crime one by one! Now the whole shape is very unfavorable to Min Wu and Old Lady Lei!
What the county commander thought was that he must not offend the powerful lords behind the Lei Gongfu and Min Wu!
Jun Wu glanced at the group of people who were crying over there, no, they were crying quieter.
Jun Wu looked at the county order and asked calmly: "My lord, don't you send the suspect to the court to confront him?" ”
The county commander was irritable: "You should be those two people who want to scream, you pariahs, so bold!" He was furious and slapped the shocking wood.
Under this shot, there was a dead silence in the courtroom.
The county commander suddenly felt a chill behind him, but when he looked at him, the people of Qiu County looked at him with disdain, disgust, contempt, and hatred...... There was also a fierce man with a fist gritting his teeth, and for a moment he choked violently.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the clerk hurriedly wiped his sweat and said in his ear: "My lord, this case cannot be tried again!" Let's take a break and we'll discuss it in secret! ”
The county order woke up, "Okay...... But suddenly the hall was closed...... "He looked at the eyes of the people who were staring at him so tightly that they wanted to eat him.
"My lord, faint, just be stunned for the time being! Leave the rest to the little ones! ”
"Good!" Standing on the side of the clerk, the county order was settled. He stood up suddenly: "The official thinks this case is ......" Suddenly, he planted it like a corpse on the desk! He also rolled his eyes and closed them.
Jun Wu looked: "......"
With a frightened look, the clerk ran over and hugged him and shook him: "My lord, my lord! ”
The people did not know what was going on, and there was a discussion.
The clerk said to the officials on the side: "The adult has fainted because of his heart disease!" Send him to the back room for healing! ”
The official was stunned for a moment, and immediately stepped forward and sent it inside with the county order.
The clerk knocked on the wood for him: "My lord is sick!" This case will be retried at a later date! ...... pointed at Jun Wu and the group of testimonists, "take these murderers, complainers, and testimonies into custody!" ”
"What ......!" The people who testified stood up: "We have not committed a crime, why should we be taken into custody? ”
Jun Wu, who had not spoken, spoke leisurely: "I don't know if this is a detention, or, an extermination?" ”
There was an uproar among the people: "How can this be justified! Outrageous! ”
The clerk glared at Jun Wu viciously, he really underestimated this girl! It is so light to incite the people!
Jun Wu took responsibility and made a decision for him: "I am the one who killed the murderer, and I am the one who was killed and accused, since it is all me, then why implicate these innocent witnesses, I am alone, yes." ”
The clerk looked at him and said in his heart: Stinky girl, of course I will lock you up! I'm not only going to lock you up, I'm going to pick you up! But if these people are released...... There are bound to be hidden dangers......
At this time, another voice came: "Could it be that the county magistrate wants to arrest these helpless innocent and poor people together, and then concentrate on cleaning up this case?" The voice was clear, but it woke up the people who were watching!
In an instant, their eyes were fixed on the clerk, and the look in their eyes was as angry as if they had seen an enemy.
The paperwork was stared at by them, and their steps stepped back.
Look at the person who spoke, dressed in black, handsome and with a faint ...... can't say it.,It's as if he saw through the soul-stirring wisdom.
Jun Wu felt that the voice was ...... Something familiar. Turning around, she saw Wang Xie.
Wang Xie was also looking at her, with a settling smile, crossing his lacquered and beautiful eyes.
Jun Wu's heart was slight, and it was a little warm.
Wang Xie nodded at her, and held out an index finger, and Jun Wu saw it...... Derpy stretched out his dragon claws towards her, but Wang Xie quickly pressed his finger and hid it.
Jun Wu turned around, lowered his head, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Forced by the pressure and public opinion at the scene, the clerk had to say: "Take the murderer into custody...... Jun Wu is alone, this case, pending trial! ”
The hall was settled, and the resentment among the people was slightly put away.
And Jun Wu got up and was obediently taken away by the officials.
The surname Bai all talked about this woman's courage, and dared to sue and expose the crimes of Old Lady Lei and Min Wu, but when they thought that she was also the murderer of her stepfather, it was very rebellious...... They don't know the truth yet, and their sympathy for her is not deep. But I only felt that these two things happened to this beauty, and I felt that this case was full of mystery and unpredictable.
The people agreed that they would come again another day to hear and understand.
And Wang Xie looked at Jun Wu's figure being taken away, his eyes were a little worried, and he pinched the sword in his hand.
"Wei Feng, let's stay in Qiu County for the time being!"
"Ah......" Wei Feng looked at the son who didn't want to meddle in his affairs, and again and again cared about the corpse girl's life and death, and said strangely: "Childe, but Doctor Xiao's illness ......"
"He has a lot of options, and he won't be able to die for a while. Let's go back to the inn first. ”
"Clam ......" Wei Feng looked at Wang Xie's departing figure, and came back to his senses for a while, hasn't the son been in a hurry to go back...... Now, don't be in a hurry......! Wei Feng felt that Childe's mind was too elusive!
And in a flowery and elegant house in Jiang Country, Xiao Yan, the first beautiful man in Jiang Country, who was looking sick and weak on vacation, raised his head to tease the birds, sneezed: "Yawn!" ”
His beautiful parrot also learned from him: "Yawn! ”
Xiao Yan, who was sick and weak, was as weak as a broken flower and said: "Why hasn't the son returned yet, just picking flowers, and not going to Liang Country to get married...... Wei Feng's kid must have dragged him back...... I'll have to break his leg and cook in bed for a few more days. ”
Wei Feng: "Ah...... Owe! ”
