Chapter 18: The Nightmare Returns (2)
"And what do you mean.......?" The old village chief turned to look at them and asked.
Chu Qingruo and Mother Zhou glanced at each other, and fell to the ground with a plop, "Please ask the old village chief to make the decision for us!" ”
The old village chief looked at the poor master and servant, stroked his beard, "Okay, then let's escort this group of beasts to the county government together!" "A village led Jiang Yongfu and a person, and went to Qingshui County Ya.
handed over the paper, and the lord finished asking questions one by one, and shouted that it was getting late, and he would try it again tomorrow. Those who have asked today can not use it tomorrow, and those who have not asked will have to come tomorrow and continue to ask. then put Jiang Yongfu and his gang into the prison, retired from the hall, and dismissed everyone.
To say that Jiang Yongfu is a tough one.
From being violently beaten by the villagers, to being led by ropes all the way to the county office, until he was pressed into the prison, he never said a word, and he never begged for mercy! From beginning to end, like a poisonous snake ready to attack, his face was gloomy, his eyes flashed with unknown meaning, staring at Chu Qingruo deadly! As if to say: Little girl! As long as you can't kill me today, I'll kill you if you find a chance!
Isn't such a person scary?
In this way, the case was tried for three days in a row.
On the fourth day, all the towns and villages knew that Jiang Yongfu had been arrested, and they all came to see it. Especially the bitter masters in the area of Fengzhen, all of them came to hear the wind!
If it's just an attempted adultery, it's nothing, at most it's a board, a stab in the face, and the most serious is an exile. But the more and more sufferers come to complain, and it is different
In the end, there are as many as seven or eight human lives! Proper decision!
But Jiang Yongfu's family had money, so he used the silver to buy off the county order at that time, and he was sentenced to be sentenced to prison!
Although Jiang Yongfu was taken into custody, the frightened Chu Qingruo was awakened by nightmares almost every night, waking up screaming and struggling every day, causing Zhou's mother to hold her all night and wipe her tears.
In the blink of an eye, several years have passed since that incident, and Chu Qingruo, who finally came out of the shadows, didn't expect to hear this nightmarish name from other people's mouths today.
Thinking of what Aunt Yao just said, Jiang Yongfu was still waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on her, and her heart couldn't help but start to panic again.
Walking into the county government like a wandering spirit, Yi Qing, who was coming to her, noticed that something was wrong with her, and couldn't help but ask with concern: "Qingruo, what's wrong with you?" Why is your face so ugly? Is there something uncomfortable? After shouting a few times, Chu Qingruo seemed to be too empty, and he didn't hear it.
He waved his hand in front of her eyes, and saw that she was like a frightened rabbit, and he was startled. Yi Qing asked her funny: "Qingruo, what's wrong with you today?" Why can't you give up? ”
Chu Qingruo squeezed out a smile at him that was more ugly than crying, "Huh? Brother Changyun, you call me? No, it's okay, I, I'm just thinking about something, a little distracted. ”
Yi Qing still had doubts in his heart, but it was inconvenient to ask any more. "I see that your face is very bad, so let's do it, I'll help you copy your case file in a while, you might as well go back early today to rest."
"Huh? Oh, then, thank you, Brother Changyun. ”
*
"Girl, Wutong Village has arrived!"
The coachman shouted a few times, and Chu Qingruo came back to his senses, got off the driveway, thanked him, and walked back.
I don't know if it's her illusion, but Chu Qingruo always felt that there was a pair of eyes peeping at her behind her all the way, which made her spine feel cold for a while. Looking back, there was no one again, could it be that she was thinking too much?
It was almost dusk, and the blood-red sunset hung on the top of the western mountain, using its last bit of strength to spread a layer of dark red light on the earth.
It's that nasty feeling again!
As soon as she turned around, she saw Jiang Yongfu standing at the foot of the mountain smiling, motionless, looking at her!
It was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and she wanted to turn around and run home, but at this time, her legs were as heavy as if they had been filled with lead, and she couldn't move for a while. I could only watch the man raise his legs and slowly walk towards her!
"Miss Chu~"
Lian Feng's voice was like a magical spell, unlocking all the confinements on Chu Qingruo's body in an instant.
"Little brother, Lian Feng. When did you come back? She chuckled softly in horror.
Fu Lingyun stood on the side of the road to the village with his hands behind his back, and when he saw Chu Qingruo who was gradually approaching, his face was happy.
"Miss Chu, why did you come back so early today? The young master also said that you are working in the yamen, and you must have come back very late! It's a shame that I dragged him to come here early and wait for you. ”
"Don't say much!" Fu Lingyun coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment.
"Huh? Oh...... I was a little uncomfortable, so I came back early. She said absent-mindedly. I looked back and saw that there was no one on the mountain road.
"Miss Chu, what are you looking at?" Lian Feng followed her gaze and saw nothing, so she couldn't help but ask curiously.
Fu Lingyun also looked back quietly, thoughtfully.
"No, nothing. Let's go. Chu Qingruo breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at him. When did you arrive? ”
Lian Feng asked Chu Qingruo to honestly confess to 1510: "We rushed overnight, and we only arrived at the county seat in the afternoon!" ”
Chu Qingruo was a little distressed: "Then where do you settle down?" Have you eaten it? ”
Lian Feng pretended to be pitiful: "We are temporarily staying at the Laifu Inn in the town, and before we have time to rest in the town, the young master said that he would come and wait for you, we are both still hungry, and we haven't eaten enough at noon!" ”
“……”
Fu Lingyun suddenly felt that it was really painful to bring a conversation out, and he couldn't wait to stop his mouth if he said anything embarrassing.
"Huh? I didn't eat well at noon, so pitiful...... If you don't dislike it, why don't you go home with me for a light meal, Zhou's mother's craftsmanship is good. ”
“!!!”
Fu Lingyun was very surprised when he heard this, Lian Feng actually asked Chu Qingruo to invite them home to eat together in a few words, he didn't expect this kid to have this ability, it seems that he underestimated him in the past!
The unkind look looked at Lian Feng: Okay, it turns out that your kid is deeply hidden!
Lian Feng shouted in his heart, is it the young master, you cherish words like gold, you won't please girls, okay? What kind of secret is this......
At dawn the next day, accompanied by an exclamation and the sound of a copper basin falling to the ground, broke the morning tranquility of Wutong Village.
Zhou's mother yawned and opened the courtyard door and came out to see what was going on. I saw that the villagers were all gathered at the door of the head tenant of the village, pointing fingers and talking about it.
And Changgui was squatting at the gate of the courtyard and holding a big flower dog and crying bitterly.
"Woo woo, Xiaohua, why did you die? Yesterday was fine, okay. What the hell is going on here, woooooo "Changgui loves dogs like life, his most beloved flower dog, Xiaohua is now dead, and Changgui is a little painful.
"Yes, our family Laishun was still lying on the wall of your house yesterday, teasing your little flowers with steamed buns, but it's really happy, why did you die today, it's really weird." Aunt Liu at the end of the village said.
"Oh, come and see, all the dogs in the village are dead!"
Suddenly, someone pointed to the haystack opposite Changshun's house and shouted. "Really! They're all dead, wow, don't all get dog plague! ”
When the villagers heard this, they took a few steps back and covered their mouths with their hands.
"Daddy!" The second brother of the Li family saw the excitement, walked into his yard from the outside, and shouted Li Zhutou.
"What's going on outside early in the morning?" Li Zhutou asked,
"The dog of Changgui's family at the entrance of the village was poisoned." The second brother of the Li family sat down and filled himself with a bowl of porridge and drank it with a sigh.
"What?" Uncle Li was stunned for a moment, took a sip of porridge, and thought thoughtfully.
On the other side, Zhou's mother also told Chu Qingruo, who was having breakfast, about the situation outside.
After hearing this, one of her faces turned white, she put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, took Zhou's mother's hand, and murmured: "He... He's coming. ”
Zhou's mother asked suspiciously, who is coming?
As soon as the words came out, his face turned white. "Miss, isn't that the person you are talking about?!"
Chu Qingruo nodded, and told her what Aunt Yao and Qiangzi had told her when she met Aunt Yao and Qiangzi in Qingshui County, as well as what she had seen Jiang Yongfu at the foot of the mountain at the entrance of the village.
"Huh? That... What should we do, Miss? "Mother Zhou's six gods have no master.
"I don't know......" Trying to keep himself calm, "In this way, Mother Zhou, you go and let the second brother of the Li family go to the town to find the little brother at the Shangfu Inn, and ask him to protect us from here!" ”
"That's right! That's right, find Fu Gongzi! He is a strong martial artist, and he will definitely be able to protect us with him. I, I'm going to call Second Brother Li. ”
Second Brother Li was asked by Zhou's mother and immediately set off for the Rifle Inn in the town.
Not long after Second Brother Li left, on the road to Wutong Village, I saw a scholar wearing an emerald green robe, walking slowly towards Wutong Village.
After breakfast, the people in the village went to work in the fields one after another, and the lively village returned to tranquility.
Tuk-tuk
Suddenly, there was a slow knock at the courtyard door. "It must be Fu Gongzi who is here, I'll go open the door for him." Zhou's mother was full of joy, and they were safe when Fu Gongzi came.
hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door, before she could see the person clearly, she felt a sharp pain in her head, her eyes were dark, and her body collapsed uncontrollably.
The person who came, but it was not Fu Lingyun!
After Jiang Yongfu knocked Zhou's mother unconscious with a stick, he looked at no one on the left and right, dragged her into the yard, and threw her aside.
He tore off her belt and pinched it in his hand. Softly walked to the door of Chu Qingruo's room and pushed the door open violently!
Chu Qingruo was sitting on the bed holding the package, waiting for Zhou's mother to bring Fu Lingyun over. The irrepressible fear surged over the whole body one after another, and it was a fear that was more terrifying than seeing someone kill!
She couldn't imagine how miserable she would end up in the hands of Jiang Yongfu.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open violently, and standing at the door was the nightmare she couldn't get rid of - Jiang Yongfu!
