Chapter 16: The Ji Family Tragedy
"The barracks are heavy, no trespassing, those who come should stop quickly, otherwise the arrows will be released!" A majestic cry came from the barracks gate.
"Master Jun, I'm Li Han, the little man who sells meat, the horse is shocked, the horse is shocked, save me!" Li Han saw that Ji Fu was about to catch up, if there was really a conspiracy, if he was faced with murder at this moment, he would die in vain, so he hurriedly shouted to report his name.
Sure enough, Ji Fu gritted his teeth in the dark, wanted to turn around and leave, but was unwilling, he wanted to control Li Han after restraining the startled horse, and fooling the people in the barracks.
The startled horse neighed and stood upright, Li Han deliberately let go, withdrew his feet from the stirrup, and slid down the horse's buttocks, and then rolled on the spot, running to the barracks with a stream of urine, shouting as he walked: "Ji Fu, you quickly hold the horse, don't let the horse trample me to death!" ”
A hand grabbed Li Han's back and whispered, "Little brute, shut up!" ”
Li Han was taken aback, he found that he couldn't break free from this hand, and the acupoints on his back had been shrouded, it seemed that this Ji Fu was not only proficient in equestrianism, but also a master of martial arts, otherwise he would never be able to restrain the startled horse with a shot, and he chased after him so quickly.
At this critical moment, Qi Yueshan's voice came like a savior: "Li Han, what are you doing when you come out so late?" So saying, he walked over to him.
Ji Fu didn't let go, and leaned into Li Han's ear and whispered a threat: "Don't speak, let me answer." ”
"Master Jun, the villain didn't mean to trespass on the barracks, it was the horse who was shocked, let's leave without disturbing the military master." Ji Fu said humbly.
Li Han thought about fighting, and shouted as soon as he mentioned it: "Captain Qi, the old man Ji Fan's life is dying, and he wants to see me when he is dying, so he will send the servant Ji Fu to pick me up, you ...... Oops, what are you pinching me for? Ah......h
As soon as Li Han spoke, Ji Fu tried to stop him from talking, but Li Han endured the pain and kept saying, the man finally didn't dare to wait any longer, and hit Li Han towards Qi Yueshan with one palm, turned over and got on his horse when everyone was caught off guard, and fled quickly.
Qi Yueshan caught Li Han with both hands, and ordered in a deep voice: "Go and chase it!" ”
Immediately, several horses rushed out of the camp gate and chased after them.
Li Han was slapped by that person, and his eyes were full of pain, Qi Yueshan hurriedly helped him check, but fortunately, the person was just to divert Qi Yueshan's attention so that he could escape, and he did not kill him, so he was not fatally injured.
"Li Han, didn't the general and Fang Daling warn you not to go out at night, why are you so careless?" Qi Yueshan reprimanded while inspecting the injury.
"Captain Qi...... I reckon...... Something must have happened to the Ji family tonight, it looks like this gangster must have a conspiracy if he wants to deceive me......" Li Han burst into tears and struggled.
At this moment, the sergeants who chased him out of the army came back, saying that the man ran to the edge of Ba Shui, abandoned his horse and threw himself into the water and disappeared, so they had to lead the man's horse back, Qi Yueshan ordered the two horses to be drawn into the barracks, and the root cause was inquired tomorrow.
This commotion, Liu Li also received a report and came out, asking Li Han what was going on, Li Han said it from beginning to end, and the general said decisively: "Li Han's speculation is reasonable, let's hurry up and go to Ji's house to have a look!" ”
Liu Lizong got on the horse, Qi Yueshan hugged Li Han in front of him, the two rode a horse together, and several guards followed closely, and for a while, the horse's hooves were as fast as rain, and they galloped away towards the city.
At the door of Ji's house, it was quiet, where was the head of the house about to die and in a mess, after stopping at the door, Liu Li ordered: "Come forward and knock." ”
The soldiers hurriedly knocked on the door, and soon an impatient voice came: "Who? My grandfather doesn't go to the clinic. ”
"We're from the barracks, open the door!"
"Huh? Hold on. ”
The door opened, and a servant appeared at the door, and when he saw the door, he was startled, turned around, and ran in and called out to the master of the house.
At this moment, Li Han was already able to walk, he looked at this courtyard that had left him countless humiliations, and he really wanted to turn around and leave, but he couldn't figure out the conspiracy of the hidden enemy, so he didn't say a word with a gloomy face.
Soon, Ji Fanhao hurriedly walked out of the inner courtyard with a full beard and a full tail, where was there a little bit of braiding, he saw Liu Li and others, and hurriedly bowed down to salute: "General Liu came late at night, but someone in the barracks is sick?" ”
"Mr. Ji, do you have a servant named Ji Fu in your family?" Liu Li asked.
"General, the villain's name is Ji Fu." The servant who had just opened the door replied quickly.
Li Han has been watching this for a long time, but Ji Xun and Ji Zhong have not shown up, the more he thinks about it, the more wrong it becomes, and he said: "Someone knocked on the door at night, but my son didn't come out to say hello, but let the old man come forward by himself, it's really strange!" ”
Ji Fan was stunned, and Chong Ji Fu asked, "Did you call the second master?" ”
Ji Fu scratched his head and said, "It's just that the second master has no voice, and the little one will call you." ”
Liu Li also sensed that something was wrong, and said in a deep voice: "Quickly call the two of them to come over to see me." ”
Ji Fan said anxiously: "Go and call, if you shouldn't call, you will get off the door panel." ”
Ji Fu went, and after a while, his ghost crying wolf howl came from a short distance: "Oh my God, grandpa and grandma...... Why are the second grandmothers and the third grandmothers all dead? ”
The group all rushed to the shouting place, and as soon as they entered the second courtyard, they saw Ji Fu screaming in horror in the courtyard with a lantern, there was a house on the left, middle and right, and the gate was open.
Everyone walked into the house on the left, only to see a girl lying on the couch outside, running into the inner room, and Ji Xun and his wife were lying on the bed, dressed neatly, and there was no bloody scene, but the two of them couldn't die anymore.
Then into the middle of the house, a maid who was waiting for the night and Ji Chong's two mothers died without scars, and in the house on the right, it was the widow of the third master Ji Hao, Liu, and a little girl, who also died silently!
The courtyard of the Ji family is divided into three layers, the first is the people's wing room and the main hall for hospitality, the granddaughters and Ji Fanlao live in the third after the most lu, and tonight's homicides all happened in the second courtyard.
Li Han gasped, he had completely figured out the mystery of tonight--- someone secretly used strange means to kill so many people in the Ji family, and then tricked him into coming to the scene, and when the time came, he would be charged with revenge and murder on his head, if he couldn't clear up this case, it was very logical, the murderer of the murder at the gate of the medicine garden must also be him!
What a vicious conspiracy, how much hatred does he have to be designed by Li Han, and it involves eight innocent lives! Although Ji Xun Ji Zhong is not a good person, he is nothing more than greedy for money and ruthless, but he is not guilty to death, and those wicked people are ruthless to kill just to plant them.
The thief led Li Han to the door of Ji's house, and there must have been a follow-up plan for everyone in the city to see, and then everyone found out that the uncle and second grandfather of the Ji family died tragically, and Li Han stayed near the scene, plus the cause of death that could not be determined, when the time came, he would not be able to distinguish even if he opened a hundred mouths, Liu Li had nothing to say even if he wanted to protect him, and even Liu Li's testimony for him the night before became perjury, and Fang Yue's resoluteness also became an accomplice with Liu Li.
Li Han was secretly frightened, if it weren't for his extra heart and eyes to make a mistake, tonight's incident would definitely become a big thing that shocked the government and the opposition, and the Hou Mansion would definitely jump out and make a big fuss, and it was a sure thing that Liu Li and Fang Yue would be implicated.
Kill three birds with one stone!
The viciousness, the meticulousness, and the impervious nature of this plan are wonderful, if Li Han is really a ten-year-old child, it will definitely be difficult to escape tonight.
Just when Li Han was stunned, Liu Li had already sent someone to notify the county government to deal with the scene.
As soon as I turned around after the arrangement, I saw that the old man Ji Fan didn't fall to the ground unconscious at any time, and now it was lively, Ji Fu roared out of his voice, and a group of old and young women gathered around, crying all over the sky.
Li Han woke up and saw an old lady, three little girls were desperately shaking Ji Fan, he originally wanted to ignore it, but he couldn't be ruthless, so he stood up and shouted: "If you want him to die quickly, continue to shake, otherwise let go and let me see." ”
In an instant, the old and young women all stopped crying, Li Han squatted down to see that the old man's lips were blue and pale, obviously an acute myocardial infarction, he quickly took out a small yellow bottle, poured out ten translucent millet-sized pills, pried open Ji Fan's mouth and put it under his tongue, and it didn't take long for the old man to slowly open his eyes.
At this moment, all the onlookers were petrified, and their eyes were full of awe when they looked at Li Han, and he shouted to the servants to carry the old man to the back hall to lie down.
Ji Fan's chest was cool and he was conscious, and when he heard that Li Han had saved him, he trembled and slowly stretched out his hands.
Li Han originally wanted to walk away with a cold face, but he couldn't harden his heart, so he had to awkwardly stretch out a hand for the old man to grab.
"Han'er...... The Ji family suffered this tragedy, it was an unkind retribution......" Ji Fan said weakly, and almost fainted again, Li Han hurriedly pinched his Neiguan acupoint, and then relieved.
Ji Fan's old tears were all over his eyes, and he said with a dying breath: "Grandpa knows that the Ji family owes you too much to your mother and son, and it was originally ...... Originally, I didn't have the cheekiness to beg you anything, but ...... Han'er, from today onwards, there is only one old and weak woman and child left in my Ji family, and the old man is afraid that he will not escape death, if you don't come back to support the family, you will definitely be plotted to destroy the family...... For the sake of your deceased father's surname, Ji, don't let your sisters become the playthings of the powerful......"
After hearing what his grandfather said, Li Han's cousin Ji Shu, cousin Ji Xiu, and Ji Fei knelt at his feet together, tearing his legs and making a sad sound, and the old grandmother was crying and almost fainting, which was simply devastating.
In a daze, Li Han opened his mouth and said, "Don't worry, old man, I won't see this family destroyed." ”
As soon as the words fell, the old man sat up, raised his hands to the sky and shouted: "Heaven will not kill my Ji family!" Hao'er, Xun'er, Chong'er, did you hear that? Han'er promised to go home, he promised to support our Ji family! You can go in peace......"
