Chapter 139: And So It's Over
When Wu Liu entered the door, Chen was carrying water to help Zhao Zhuzi clean his wounds, and Gu Dazhuang looked very sorry on the side, "Zhuzi, it's all my fault, you were injured." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Zhao Zhuzi had a deep wound on his arm, and his skin and flesh turned out, and he knew that he was very ruthless when he looked at it.
"How can I blame you, it's those people who are so vicious." He shook his head, looking unconcerned.
"Are you Zhao Zhuzi?" Wu Liu walked over, raised his eyes to look at him, and his careless eyes fell on him.
Zhao Zhuzi was tense and looked a little nervous, "Official, are you ...... The small one is Zhao Zhuzi. ”
"What are you afraid of, I'm scary?" Wu Liu seemed to be dissatisfied, and glared at him with unkind eyes.
"No, it's not." Zhao Zhuzi swallowed his saliva, and laughed twice, "The little one is a little nervous." ”
"I only catch the wicked who do evil, and you don't commit any crimes, what are you afraid of me doing?" Wu Liu pulled a chair next to him and sat down as he spoke, "I have something to be curious about and want to ask you." ”
"Official, please say, as long as the little one knows, he must know everything." Zhao Zhuzi hurriedly assured.
Chen Shi hurriedly washed his veil and lowered his head to clean up the blood stains next to Zhao Zhuzi.
Wu Liu glanced at his arm, his eyes flickered slightly, and he withdrew his gaze, "I heard that you were held hostage by four people, how did you escape?" ”
After hearing this, Zhao Zhuzi spoke, "They took me to the mountain, and after walking for a while, they stopped to rest. I took the opportunity to say that it was convenient, so they sent a man to take me to the grass on the side, and I fled while the man was not looking, but I still slashed me, but I was very fatal, and I ran fast, and they were afraid of chasing me out and delaying time, so they left me alone. ”
He spoke quickly, as if he had been rehearsed with such skill, and at first glance there was nothing wrong with it.
"Oh, so you got this wound from the slash you fled?" Wu Liu pointed to the wound that had been scrubbed clean by Chen.
"Yes, that's what the thief hacked." Zhao Zhuzi nodded heavily, "If I hadn't dodged quickly, my arm would have been useless." ”
"Brother Zhuzi, I can't help you in this matter." Gu Dazhuang couldn't help but sigh, if he hadn't made a bear back, where would such a thing happen.
"How can I blame you for this." Zhao Zhuzi shook his head again and again, grinning and showing a sincere smile.
"Uncle Zhuzi, why do you have to go in to see those people, they are obviously already tied up? As soon as you enter, the ropes in their hands are open? Gu Siniang, who had been standing on the side and had not spoken, spoke, and she looked at Zhao Zhuzi calmly with a pair of eyes.
He must be lying, those people must have been reversed by him. Gu Siniang thought in her heart, but there was no evidence, it was just her guess.
"Oh? And this thing? Wu Liu seemed very interested, turned his head to Zhao Zhuzi and said, "I also want to hear your explanation." ”
Zhao Zhuzi's face was obviously stiff, and he paused before smiling, "I'm fine, I'm just afraid that they ran away and wanted to go in to have a look, but I didn't expect to be hit by a knife on the neck as soon as I entered the door." ”
He still had his head down as he spoke, not knowing what to think.
"Oh, why did that man die, or was he killed?" Gu Siniang asked again, "Uncle Zhuzi, you were in the house at the time, do you know why?" ”
"This ......" Zhao Zhuzi was stunned for a moment, and then said, "That group of people is probably afraid that he will leak the news and confess where the nest of those people is." ”
"Well, it seems that this matter really has nothing to do with you." Wu Liu nodded and stood up from his chair, "This matter has been investigated, it is their nest, I will go back and tell Lord Wu about this matter, and a notice will be posted in the yamen to arrest him." ”
"That's the end of it?" Gu Siniang looked at Wu Liu, her brows furrowed.
"What if it's not over, when the yamen arrests those people, the interrogation can be revealed. During this time, you should try to go out as little as possible, so that the gang will not retaliate. Wu Liu waved his hand, looking like he didn't want to say more.
Gu Siniang opened her mouth, she didn't say anything, all her guesses were just guesses, and there was no real evidence.
Wu Liu took a few yacha to take away the body of the scarred man, and Chen also bandaged Zhao Zhuzi's arm.
"Sister-in-law, thank you so much." Zhao Zhuzi looked at his arm and smiled with satisfaction.
"No thanks, that's as it should be." Chen shook his head and said.
Zhao Zhuzi said a few words and left, Gu Dazhuang sent him to the door, Gu Siniang looked at his back and fell into deep thought.
That night, the lights of Lotus Village were extinguished early, and a black shadow in the village quickly shuttled through the village, feeling the darkness into the forest.
Because it was dark, after the black shadow entered the forest, he stretched out his hand and lit a prepared torch, and it was much easier to walk at night with the light.
"Who?" As he walked, the man suddenly turned around and shouted behind him.
The wind blew through the woods, and the bare branches made a rustling sound, and the man listened intently for a long time, as if it was only the sound of the wind blowing through the forest, and then he turned around and continued to walk.
There was a cave deep in the woods, and I don't know what it used to do, but now there was a faint light from the cave.
"You can count it as coming, if you don't come, we will either freeze to death or starve to death." As soon as he entered the cave, someone spoke.
"Clothes and dry food are all in it, you guys, eat and drink enough and hurry away. Don't come back. The man looked at the few gobbling men in front of him and said with a look of disgust.
"Humph! You think about beauty, you killed our eldest brother, and now you want to get rid of us, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world? One of them took a bite of the steamed bun, drank another sip of water, and snorted coldly.
"What are you going to do?" This person was none other than Zhao Zhuzi, and his eyes were staring gloomily at the people in front of him.
"Prepare us a hundred taels of silver, and we will go far away, and we will never come again." The man grinned.
"One hundred taels?"
Zhao Zhuzi's voice suddenly rose, "Where do you ask me to get so much silver, to tell you the truth, I don't have a tael in my hand." If you don't want to leave, just wait to be arrested by the government. ”
"Even if we were caught, we would be charged with theft at best, and we would have been locked up for a few years. But you are different, you are a murderer, and murder is to pay for your life. The man sneered twice, not at all afraid.
His voice fell, and several other people also laughed, "If you don't give us silver, we have no money, so naturally we have to find a way to get money, what if you are accidentally caught by the government, and then accidentally confess that it is you who killed our eldest brother?"
