"Yes, where is Brother Youqiu?" Liu Wuxiu was inspired and followed suit.

Usually, if someone dies in the village, the patriarch and the neighbors will be notified and dealt with together.

But the patriarch was busy dealing with the robbers in Guangyu Village yesterday, learning about the casualties of the villagers, and accompanying Langzhong to treat the injured from door to door, so he didn't have time to help the villagers deal with the dead people.

Bi Li Zhu is lazy to eat, she doesn't have any strength, the night before, Zhou Youqiu's corpse, what method and where will she go?

"This is my family's family affair, and it has nothing to do with you." Bi Lizhu's eyes flickered, and he refused to speak.

It seems that there must be something greasy in it, and it needs to be checked.

Xiao Qiongzhi hurriedly instructed the dog and the stone: "Dog, stone, you go and call the patriarch grandfather-"

"Zhi'er, don't scream, I'm already here." Patriarch Zhou Yuandong suddenly interrupted Xiao Qiongzhi's words, and walked out from the crowd watching the excitement at the gate of the courtyard.

Xiao Qiongzhi was overjoyed, hurriedly stepped forward, and asked him curiously, "Patriarch Grandpa, why did you come over?" ”

Zhou Yuandong touched Xiao Qiongzhi's head and replied kindly: "It was the eldest girl who called me over, she said that the mother of the dog and the stone, who was beating Zhou Youqiu's stepdaughter, was about to be killed, let me come and take a look." ”

"Patriarch Grandpa, the eldest girl is talking nonsense, my mother didn't beat Bi Li Zhu a few times, she won't die at all." The dog was afraid that Zhou Yuandong would misunderstand his mother, so he came over and argued loudly.

"That's it! Patriarch, let me tell you, the eldest girl has never been here at all, it must be Wang Chunhua, who instructed her to talk nonsense; I also want to tell you that someone just told me that I saw Bi Lizhu go to Wang Chunhua last night, and they should be in a group. Liu Wuxiu was also afraid of being misunderstood by Zhou Yuandong, so he quickly stood up from Bili Zhu and walked to Zhou Yuandong to explain.

Yesterday morning, when Zhou Yuandong took people to Xiao Qiongzhi's house, he had already heard Chu Yunniang talk about the fact that Bili Zhu took robbers from Guangyu Village into the courtyard of Liu Wuxiu's house to set fire to the house, and entered the courtyard of Xiao Qiongzhi's house to steal things.

It's just that looking at Chu Yunniang and Liu Wuxiu, they didn't seem to have any intention of pursuing it at that time, so they didn't deal with Bi Lizhu.

Now, since Liu Wuxiu took Zhou Dayong and Xiao Qiongzhi to Zhou Youqiu's house, this matter must be handled properly.

He thought about it for a while, and said to Zhou Dayong, who also walked to him at this time and was about to greet him: "Dayong, tell me everything that happened just now." ”

"Okay. Here's the thing...... "Zhou Dayong told him the truth.

Zhou Yuandong listened carefully, and when he got up, he sat in front of Bi Li Zhu on the ground, and asked in a deep voice: "Bi Li Zhu, where did you hide your stepfather's body?" ”

"I didn't hide his body. His body was still in the courtyard when I was knocked unconscious by the bandits of the Bright Village the night before, but by the time I woke up from the coma, his body was gone. Bi Li Zhu replied coquettishly with an aggrieved face.

The hypocritical face is really disgusting.

Xiao Qiongzhi didn't want to give her a chance to play extraneously, and said to Zhou Yuandong with a solemn expression: "Patriarch Grandpa, I saw with my own eyes the day before yesterday that when Youqiu Bo was killed by the robbers of Guangfu Village, Bi Lizhu hid in the house and didn't come out, and later, in order to save her life, she betrayed my father, and after she came out of the house, she didn't show a little sadness for Youqiubo's death. ”

"Just now, I heard everyone say that Bi Lizhu has never called Youqiubo a father, which makes me think that Youqiubo's body suddenly disappeared, and there is only one possibility."

"What is possible?" Zhou Yuandong, Zhou Dazhi, Liu Wuxiu and some people around to watch the excitement were all curious and asked in unison.

"Although Bi Li Zhu has no father-daughter affection for Uncle Youqiu, she is a stepdaughter under the name of Uncle Youqiu, and she should be mourned with her mother. It's just that it takes a lot of money to treat the funeral, and now that everyone is in a difficult period, Bi Li Zhu is definitely not willing to pay for the funeral. ”

Therefore, she could only tell everyone on the surface that Youqiubo's corpse was missing, but in fact, Youqiubo's corpse was hidden in this courtyard, where it was not easy to be thought of. Like in dry wells, in manure pits, in firewood and grass piles—"

"Stinky girl, don't spray people with blood! Although I have never called Zhou Youqiu father, I have always regarded him as my father in my heart, how could I do such a hurtful thing as hiding his body in order to save money for funeral? Bi Lizhu listened to it, and suddenly her expression became excited, as if she had been greatly wronged.

Liu Wuxiu was upset when she heard this, strode up to her, pushed her to the ground, sat on top of her, took off her shoes, and forced them into her mouth.

The dog and the stone did the same, one took out the mountain chestnut from his bosom and went to the ears of the Bibi Fence Zhu, and the other tore off the cloth belt on his head and went to the eyes of the Bibi Fence Zhu.

Xiao Qiongzhi glanced at them approvingly, turned his head and said to Zhou Yuandong more bluntly: "Patriarch Grandpa, you immediately let people search the dry wells, dung pits, and firewood and grass piles in this courtyard, I can basically be sure now that there is Qiu Bo's body, which should be hidden in one of these three places." ”

"Okay, I'll have someone search for it now." The patriarch felt that Xiao Qiongzhi's analysis was very reasonable.

From the crowd at the gate of the courtyard to watch the excitement, he picked out six old people and fourteen or sixteen-year-old boys who usually behaved more honestly, and asked Zhou Dayong to lead the team to search.

After about a quarter of an hour, Zhou Dayong and the others grabbed a short and fat woman in her fifties with a meaty face and returned to Zhou Yuandong.

He pointed to the short and fat woman with a thick face, and told Zhou Yuandong in a heavy tone: "We found this aunt in the firewood and grass pile of Uncle Qiu's stove house, she claimed to be Li Xihu, and she was Bili Zhu's cousin, and yesterday morning, she was called over to help by Bili Zhu's letter. ”

"She has already admitted that there is a corpse of Brother Qiu, yesterday she and Bi Li Zhu together, tied a big stone, and threw it into the dung pit, we need a lot of dung spoons, dung buckets, as soon as possible to clear out all the dung in the dung pit, and fish out the body of Brother Qiu, otherwise, after a long time, I am afraid that Brother Qiu's body will be destroyed by maggots and dung in the dung pit."

"Disobedience and unfilial piety! This Bi Li Zhu is really disobedient and unfilial! Zhou Yuandonggen didn't expect Bi Li Zhu to treat Zhou Youqiu like this, and he couldn't help but be angry.

It took him a while to suppress the anger in his chest, and asked people to find hemp rope and tie up Bi Li Zhu and Li Xihu.

Immediately afterwards, he said in a deep voice to the people watching the excitement at the gate of the courtyard: "You all go home, bring the dung buckets and dung spoons from your house, and load the dung in the dung pit of Zhou Youqiu's house." ”

"Good!" The crowd at the gate of the courtyard agreed loudly in unison to do so immediately.

Zhou Youqiu is an honest man, and in the village, his popularity is still very good.

They all heard the conversation between Zhou Yuandong and Zhou Dayong, and they were very sympathetic to Zhou Youqiu's experience, and they all hoped that his body could be salvaged as soon as possible.

There is a lot of strength in people, and it didn't take long for the dung in Zhou Youqiu's manure pit to be dug out by everyone.

However, what is surprising is that at the bottom of the dung pit, there are not only Zhou Youqiu's corpse, but also four faceless skulls and many other human bones.

Judging by the size of the skull, it is much smaller than the head of an adult, basically, like the skull of a small child.

This shocked everyone present, and they whispered and guessed who the owner of these skulls would be.
