Chapter 222: The Truth
Although it was summer, Xiao Qi felt cold in his heart.
Aunt Ma came over, let out a scream when she saw the situation in the house, and fell to the ground.
The two of them put Wang Li down together.
Aunt Ma wiped her tears,
"Little Seventh Girl, Auntie, please ask you, you must investigate Wang Dasha's case clearly, you can't wronged him because he is a fool and is easy to bully."
After Xiao Qi came out of Wang Li's house, he visited the neighbors around Wang Li's family and found that everyone had a lot of opinions about Wang Dasha.
said that he often bullied children, said that he often scared everyone with dead rats and dead cockroaches, said that he was very dangerous, and he should have been arrested a long time ago.
Xiao Qi went to Zhang Ji's bun shop again, and Zhang Fatzi's wife was still lying in bed and couldn't get up.
Zhang Fatzi was busy working alone in the bun shop, and there were very few people in the shop, which seemed a little deserted. When Xiao Qi asked what had happened, Zhang Fatzi was very excited, and he insisted that he had not offended anyone, and it must have been Wang Dasha who killed his son Xiaoxing.
On the second day, Xiao Qi visited several households near the Land Temple and asked if they had ever been to the Land Temple on the first day of the seventh month.
I really found out that the family living on the left side of the Land Temple, the child's name is Xiaodeng.
Since Xiao Deng was found by his family behind the Land Temple on the night of the first day of the seventh month, he has become stupid and unable to speak.
His family helped to invite the goddess to call the soul, but to no avail.
The time and place that Xiao Qi heard them say had a lot to do with Xiao Xing's case, and he felt that Xiao Deng was likely to be related to Wang Dasha's case.
Back at home, Xiao Qi went to Hua Xi'er's house: "Aunt Xi, is there any way to recover from a frightened child, if there is such a book, I want to borrow it." ”
Xiao Qi told Hua Xi'er about the little light.
Hua Xi'er: "That kid suddenly became stupid, probably because he was frightened, and solving the root of the matter can make him recover." But now there are three days left before Wang Dasha's execution, and you have to find clues in these three days. ”
Xiao Qi: "I went to Zhang Ji Bun Shop and asked a few times, but I didn't find any enemies between their husband and wife." I also arranged for Li Sihu and a few people to go to the people near the Land Temple to continue to look for clues. ”
Hua Xi'er: "Xiao Qi, I don't know if you have heard that there is a temple called Pengcheng Temple on the mountain north of Pengzhou City. ”
"Aunt Xi, where did you hear that?"
Hua Xi'er smiled: "Naturally, I heard about it from the teahouse, and I don't know if it's true, you can go and take a look." ”
The next day, after Xiao Qi went to the yamen in the morning to order the mao, he took the frightened child and the child's family to Pengcheng Temple outside the North City Gate.
There, she met Master Tenyin in the Imperial Bath Temple.
Xiao Qi was very surprised, Master Tianyin was as young and handsome as he was a few years ago, and he hadn't changed at all.
"Master, are you an immortal in the sky? Why is it never old? ”
Master Tianyin's mouth was like a heavenly sound. "Is it the little seventh girl?"
"I didn't expect the master to remember me."
Xiao Qi pulled up the small lamp on the side and walked up to Master Tianyin, "Master, you can help this kid take a look." ”
Master Tianyin shook his head, "I've been consuming too much lately to treat this child. ”
Xiao Qi felt so disappointed, the day of Wang Dasha's execution was just around the corner, and Xiao Deng was now the only hope.
Master Tianyin slowly spoke, "Do you remember that I gave you a tip before, when I told you that I could only open it at a critical moment. ”
"There's an elixir in there that can cure all diseases." "Oh, is that really okay? I'll keep it and give it to him when I get back. ”
"Xiao Qi, that pill was originally left for you, because I calculated that you would have a catastrophe, and it could save your life at a critical moment."
After Xiao Qi returned home, he took out the pill from the box containing the phoenix hairpin and gave it to Xiao Deng's family.
Xiao Deng's parents were very moved, "Little Seventh Girl, thank you for giving us the life-saving medicine." ”
Xiao Qi: "Don't be too excited, I took it out because I won't be in danger, I'm the Seven Women, so powerful, how can my life be in danger?" I've rarely gotten sick since I was a kid. ”
Little Lantern Niang: "Yes, how can a character like the Seven Heroines be in danger of his life?" ”
After the husband and wife fed Xiao Deng and took the pill, Xiao Deng really became clear.
He carefully recalled what happened on the evening of the first day of July.
"I was playing behind the Land Temple that day, and I saw Xiaoxing and the fool next to the bun shop also playing there, and then the fool ran to pee, and then there was a man with a mustache who strangled a child's neck with a rope, and then I don't remember what happened next."
Xiao Qi immediately took the small lamp and asked Zhang Fatzi, do you know the person with the mustache?
Zhang Fatzi thought about it and didn't remember that among the people he knew was someone with a mustache.
There was an old man in the bun shop, "Two streets away, there is also a steamed bun seller there, surnamed Zhang like Zhang Fatzi, his name is Zhang Xiaoba, and he has a mustache on his face." ”
Xiao Qi took Xiao Deng to another Zhang Ji bun shop, and when Xiao Deng saw the boss surnamed Zhang, he immediately trembled with fright.
Zhang Xiaoba saw that Xiao Qi was wearing fast clothes, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What are you doing here?" Don't scare the customers in my shop. ”
Xiao Qi: "Yamen is handling the case, Boss Zhang, please come with us." ”
Zhang Xiaoba threw the steamer in his hand, ran away, and was pressed to the ground by Xiao Qi after a few steps.
Xiao Qi carried Zhang Xiaoba to the lobby and asked Master Wang to help invite the prefect over.
The officials shouted the word "mighty" in a twisted manner, and Zhang Xiaoba was so frightened that he peed his pants and confessed the whole thing about killing Xiaoxing that day.
"My steamed bun shop opened half a year earlier than Zhang Fatzi's shop, and Zhang Fatzi's steamed bun shop had not yet opened at that time, and my shop was full of customers."
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, "Since the opening of Fat Zhang's bun shop, my business here has become very cold. ”
"His bun paved pressed my head, and his son Xiaoxing pressed my son's head in the hall."
Zhang Xiaoba showed a hideous look on his face, "Others say that his son is a lucky star, so I killed his son to see if his bun shop can be opened." ”
Finally, the truth was revealed, and Wang Dasha was acquitted, but Wang Li never returned.
After discussing with Master Wang, the prefect decided to compensate Wang Dasha with fifty taels of silver.
But the fifty taels of silver caused an incident, and the neighbors fought to raise Wang Dasha.
In the end, Aunt Ma temporarily took in Wang Dasha, but confiscated the money, she said to Xiaoqi that she was very old, I don't know how long I can live, and she is not at ease to hand over Wang Dasha to her son to raise, because her son is also a master who sees money, and hopes that the prefect can make other suitable arrangements for Wang Dasha.
