Chapter 173: Slipping Liver Tip (13)
He has killed people, but he has not killed anyone with his own hands.
As a parent official, most of the people who died at his hands were bad people who were guilty, but just now he killed a "good" person, an innocent woman who had been involved in his sin.
He looked at Manniang's face, feeling the vitality slipping away from her soft body little by little, and he felt a little disgusting.
"Guilty?"
A voice asked him in a strange voice.
He nodded, taking his gaze away from Manniang's lifeless face.
"It's just food, and humans don't need to feel guilty when they hunt for food."
The voice spoke again, with a hint of mockery in its tone.
"Manniang is not food."
He said indignantly, his hands clenched.
"She's food, at least a part of her body is going to be your food."
The voice sharpened.
"The ingredients are fresh and delicious, you have to eat them while she is still cold."
"I, don't eat!" He lowered his head: "From now on, I will never kill people again, and I will never eat people's hearts and livers again." ”
"Really?" The voice defiantly said, "You'll eat!" I promise, you'll definitely eat it. ”
"Leave me alone!" He covered his face in pain: "I beg you, get away from me." I've done everything you want me to do. Please, let me go, I'm just a useless petty official. ”
"Spare you? Why should I let you go! The voice grew harsher: "When I begged that man to let me go, did he let me go?" Pain, pleading, are useless. ”
"And what are you pestering me for?" He ripped off his clothes and looked at the face, "Yes!" I promised you that I would help you solve the case, and I would help you catch that villain. I am an official, but I am just an ordinary petty official, I am not an immortal. You should know that I tried my best, and I didn't give up, and I'll keep looking. ”
"You are our parent official, and something happened, but you only said to me lightly that you did your best and will continue to investigate. Perfunctory, this is perfunctory! ”
"There is a wrong, there is a debtor, you are so powerful, why don't you go to the real murderer who killed you. I'm innocent, and I'm innocent. Deal...... I'm not going to do it. ”
"Do you think I don't want to?" The face became distorted: "I didn't see his face at all, I didn't know who he was, I couldn't find him." You're the county lord, you have to help me find him. As long as you find him, I will let you go. ”
"I can't find it!" He sighed: "Since you will not let me go, I will not beg you anymore." My life is in your hands, you can do whatever you want. ”
As he spoke, he closed his eyes.
He was afraid of death, he hadn't lived enough, of course he was afraid of death. But now, he has no choice. He didn't want to kill anymore, he didn't want to eat the things that made him sick. The most important thing is that he understands that from beginning to end, from beginning to end, it is deceiving it. It won't let him go.
With a tingling pain in his abdomen, he wrinkled his brow and put down the clothes he was pulling.
The face began to squirm around his abdomen, and he could feel the muscles and even bones all over his body making strange noises.
"I won't let you go! If the case is not solved, and that person cannot be found, I will pester you for a day until you die. ”
It was screaming, its mouth opening and closing, and it bit his shirt into its mouth.
He tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "Until you die, right?" Then I'll die! ”
He walked briskly to the other side of the bed and removed a sword from the wall. This sword, which was originally used for self-defense, has now helped him get rid of it.
No sooner had he raised his sword and aimed his sword at the face in his abdomen, when the butler barged in.
He said, "Don't, sir, I've found a way to cure that thing!" ”
An hour later, Xing Ruyi stood in front of the county lord.
"Doctor?"
The county lord only glanced at it, and then made a gesture to want the housekeeper to get the punishment out of Ruyi.
"Black cats and white cats, the one who catches the mouse is a good cat. Male doctors, female doctors, the one who can cure the master's stubborn disease is a good doctor. The master is a scholar, and he has been an official for many years, so he won't even understand this truth. Or is the old man shy about illness and avoiding medical treatment, and is unwilling to let a female doctor diagnose and treat you? ”
"Sir." The housekeeper called softly on the side: "This female doctor is not a mortal, maybe only she can save you, master." ”
The county lord glanced at the housekeeper, and after a long time, he nodded slowly.
Xing Ruyi finally saw the face, which was different from what he imagined, it looked a little more hideous.
"The female doctor may cure it?"
"My surname is Xing."
Xing Ruyi raised his head and collided with the county lord's eyes, and continued to stare at that face.
This face was transformed by the resentment of the deceased, and it was a child who was not yet an adult, so he was quite angry. With such grievances, it is definitely not possible to expect the monks in the temple to recite sutras excessively. This also explains why the presiding master who was invited by the county lord left in a hurry.
As for Mr. Qiu, who lived in the grave, he was even more ill-hearted.
Thinking of this, she shook her head slightly.
"It seems that the criminal doctor has no choice." The county lord was a little disappointed.
"This is a human face sore, a strange disease born of human resentment. It's not difficult to solve it, but I don't know if you can withstand it, master. ”
"What do you mean?"
"As for me, I'll give you an anesthetic first, which is something like Ma Boiling San, and then I will pull this thing out of your abdomen, master."
As soon as the words fell, the county lord had not yet spoken, but his face moved.
"Whoever you are, I advise you to be less nosy!"
Xing Ruyi touched his nose, didn't care about what his face said, but looked at the county master and asked, "Master, are you willing to give it a try." ”
"Is it going to happen?"
"Not necessarily, but even if it doesn't work, you don't have anything to lose to the master." Xing Ruyi pointed to the sword that fell to the ground: "Before we enter the door, aren't you planning to do that, master?" ”
"So, what's the difference between what you're doing and what I'm trying to do?" The county lord smiled bitterly.
"Absolutely!" Xing Ruyi stood up and took two steps back: "I'm a doctor, and my principle is to cure diseases and save people." Although they are all swords, my knife is for your treatment, and you are looking for death, sir. ”
"You just said it may not be possible. If not, what is the difference between me and death? ”
"The difference between suicide and her homicide."
Xing Ruyi said softly, and the county lord laughed.
"Doctor Criminal, is he? I'll listen to you, and let you pull a knife in my stomach. If you cure me, I can give you whatever you want. If you can't be cured, it doesn't matter, I will never let you be charged with murdering an official. ”
"Deal!" Xing Ruyi's hands lightly struck each other: "Please go back to the bed and lie down, I will prepare anesthetic." ”
The county lord nodded, and lay back on the bed meekly like a well-behaved child. The housekeeper glanced at Xing Ruyi and stood on the side of the bed. Just looking at the butler's face, he didn't seem to have any expression, and even those eyes were calm and waveless.
"Does your hemp boiling powder work?" The county lord closed his eyes and asked a little uneasily: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, doctor, I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid of pain." ”
"Don't worry, sir, my anesthetic is very useful."
Xing Ruyi took out a small bottle, handed it to the county master, opened the cap, and a smell of clear hemp came out. The county lord opened his eyes and looked at the small bottle.
This hemp boiling taste is not bad!
The county lord thought dizzily, and his consciousness drifted farther and farther away.
Xing Ruyi called lightly a few times, and seeing that the county lord did not react, he turned to look at the face of the person in his abdomen: "What is your food?" ”
"Blood!" The face bared his teeth: "You are not a doctor!" ”
"That's right, I'm not a doctor." Xing Ruyi took out a shiny knife: "I'm a cook!" ”
Three days later, the county lord woke up.
He looked at the lady who was sitting next to him and cried with joy, and said, "What did you bring, why is it so fragrant?" ”
Madame stopped sobbing, leaned down a little, and asked, "My lord has slept for three days, but he is hungry?" ”
The county lord sniffed vigorously, stared at his wife's beautiful face and said, "Yes, I'm hungry!" ”
