"What? Still at home! The village chief was very dissatisfied, "Who let him stay at home?" The notice I posted is that everyone is coming, is he deaf? Go and find him for me, I'll ask you for myself, why is no one hurt, but he's the only one hurt. ”

The young man hurriedly went to Wang Fugui's house and dragged the person over, and sure enough, he was injured, his flesh and blood were blurred, and he cried a handful of snot and tears.

The village chief frowned, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Wang Fugui cried and said, "The mad dog at the entrance of the village, I chased and bit me when I just went out this morning, I didn't dodge, I threw a stone and threw it over, who would have thought it would be even crazier." ”

The village chief scolded him, "Mad dog, how can you throw a stone to hit him?" Don't you know that the more you hit it, the crazier it gets? ”

Wang Fugui could only cry, "Don't say it, my hand hurts even more." ”

Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng glanced at each other, and Yuan Junfeng stepped forward with suspicion, "Show me your hand." ”

It's strange, Wang Fugui turned out to be injured in the hand, Yuan Junfeng suspected that he deliberately said that he was bitten by a dog, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence.

Who knew that as soon as Wang Fugui saw Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng standing behind, he threw himself up with a handful of snot and tears, "Miss Xue! Miss Xue! You're going to save me! I hurt so much! Come and save me! I'm not going to get rabies! ”

Yuan Junfeng stopped in front of him and didn't let him pounce on Xue Rou, "What are you doing?" ”

Yuan Junfeng frowned and looked at him, "Take off your clothes for me first, otherwise how can we treat you?" ”

The clothes were also covered with blood and stuck to his body, the village chief found a large pair of scissors, Xue Rou wiped the curry and cut off the entire sleeve, and Yuan Junfeng grabbed his hand and looked at it.

Xue Rou was waiting on the side, but Yuan Junfeng shook his head at her and said quietly, "The wound is blurry with flesh and blood, and I can't see the knife wound, it shouldn't be him." ”

The wound only felt very deep, but there were no neat knife marks.

Therefore, Wang Fugui's suspicion was temporarily dispelled, and Xue Rou let him sit on the side and bandaged his arm.

At this time, another villager shouted, "Miss Xue! There's also a guy with an injured arm here! ”

It turned out that when they checked on Wang Fugui, the villagers were not idle, but continued to check the people around them, and found another person with a wound on his arm.

Xue Rou walked over, "Who is it?" ”

The villager triumphantly raised the hand of a person next to him, "Look! That's him! ”

The face of the person who was raised the injured arm was pale and wanted to struggle, but the other villagers held down the other arm together, and there was no way to move at all, only crying out in pain, "It hurts, it hurts!" Not me! ”

"Not you what? With so many people standing here, you're the only one hurt. ”

Yuan Junfeng stepped forward, "Let me take a look." ”

He looked at the man's arm again and found that it was indeed a knife wound, "You have a knife wound, how did you get it?" ”

The injured person's name was Liu Si, and he was very aggrieved at this time, "It's not my fault." I came out to pee last night, and someone attacked me and stabbed me in the back, and I didn't catch anyone. ”

The villagers were indignant, "What nonsense are you still making up?" Who came to our village to attack you at night? It's not a neurosis. ”

Liu Si was even more dissatisfied, "Why don't you believe me, I was innocent when I was injured, and you have to add other charges to me!" ”

It was noisy for a while, and the villagers did not give up on Liu Si, and Wang Fugui, who was injured just now, was thrown aside, and no one cared anymore.

The village chief stood up and spoke, "No matter what, you have injuries on your hands, and you are the most suspicious now, and we can't tolerate you." Either you get out of the village, or we'll set you on fire! ”

"Village chief, you can't let him go! He's a victim of ours, so burn him to death. This scourge! ”

Xue Rou was shocked by the ignorance of the village, and was about to burn people to death without saying a word, and was about to step forward to persuade her, but saw Yuan Junfeng step forward before her, "Folks, listen to me." Although Liu Si was suspicious, he was not sure if he was the person who was last night. Kill him so rashly, what if you kill the wrong person? ”

"Yuan Gongzi, what do you say?"

Yuan Junfeng said, "It's better to lock him up first, if you can't find any other clues, or directly prove that it was him last night, then make other plans." ”

The villagers were a little unwilling, but they still followed Yuan Junfeng's advice and arrested Liu Si.

"Count yourself lucky, this time it is Yuan Gongzi who protects you. Next time you dare to harm us, don't blame us for being rude. ”

Liu Si was tied up with rope by the angry villagers and thrown into the firewood house.

And Xue Rou and Yuan Junfeng also went home, and Xue Rou felt that Yuan Junfeng's behavior was a little strange. In the past, he was not such a soft-hearted person, it was only under Xue Rou's persuasion that he went to save people, why did he take the initiative to speak to Liu Si today? Could it be that there is something hidden that can't be done?

Thinking so, Xue Rou also asked, "Brother Yuan, why are you helping Liu Si speak today?" ”

Yuan Junfeng smiled, "Otherwise? Can you still watch him die? ”

Xue Rou shook her head, "That's not what I meant. At that time, if you didn't come forward, I would have stepped forward. It's just that you're not such a character, how can you suddenly soften your heart? ”

Yuan Junfeng rubbed her head, "Rou'er still understands me." I did do it for my reasons. "I looked at his arm, and it was a knife wound, but it wasn't the one I cut last night." I had a heavy hand yesterday, and because in the fight, the knife fell on my body if I was careless, so it was much stronger. ”

"And Liu Si's scar doesn't look heavy, it's not like I cut it last night, the depth of the wound and the length of the knife are not like it. I think what he said is true nine times out of ten, maybe he was indeed stabbed by someone, and he didn't have any ability to resist, so he was stabbed and gone. ”

Xue Rou's expression was solemn, "You mean, the person we hurt last night was not Liu Si, maybe it was he who cut Liu Si as a scapegoat in order to blur his vision?" ”

Yuan Junfeng nodded, "Very likely." ”

Xue Rou was even more strange, "Then why didn't you just say it directly, and let the village chief screen them again, maybe they can find the murderer." ”

Yuan Junfeng said, "Since the murderer can cut Liu Silai as a scapegoat, he must be fully prepared." I was very suspicious of Wang Fugui at the time, but his wounds really didn't look like knife wounds. Now that he's made a scapegoat, I might as well go with the flow and follow his wishes. Let's lure the snake out of the hole and see which snake can be caught at the bottom? ”

Both of them felt that since the people who went to the mass grave at night deliberately cut the corpses into pieces and threw them into the dung pit, they must have wanted to make the villagers in the village infected with the disease. This time they were discovered by Xue Rou, he definitely won't give up, maybe there will be the next move soon, they just need to wait patiently.

However, before the murderer could be caught, the symptoms of the tumor in the village became more serious. I don't know if it's because there are corpse parts in the manure tank, or if the people behind it used some other methods. In short, the number of infected people has risen again, and the number of people who had previously contracted the disease has also become severe.

Xue Rou was busy.

At this time, the Taoist priest who had been shrinking in the nest came out and began to scatter nonsense everywhere, which he had said once before, and the villagers didn't believe it at that time, but now they are a little shaken.

The Taoist priest shook the pu fan in his hand and fanned the flames and said, "Why is the epidemic in this village getting more and more serious, have you ever thought about it?" Why doesn't anyone get better all the time? ”

The villager said, "It's because it's not yet time to take the medicine, and it will take a few courses of treatment to get better, these are all said by Miss Xue." ”

The Taoist priest sneered, "Miss Xue? Xue Rou knows what she knows, if she really understands, why hasn't a single patient been cured until now. Do you know why? ”

The villagers hesitated, "Why?" ”

The Taoist priest patted him on the head with a pu fan, "Of course, it's because Xue Rou is a quack, she doesn't know any medical skills at all, otherwise why are the people in the village getting sicker and sicker?" And people who didn't get sick in the first place are also sick. Why don't you want to think about this quack problem? She doesn't know how to heal at all, so she will give you random medicine, and it will become more and more serious in the end! ”

"Don't talk nonsense, Miss Xue is not such a person."

"Hey, believe it or not." The Taoist priest shook his small pu fan and left.

The villagers are still in a state of half-belief, but the number of skeptics has exceeded the number of believers. In particular, there were a few short-tempered villagers who were already clamoring to find Xue Rou to settle accounts, but they were stopped by others.

And the Taoist priest has not been idle in the past few days, fanning the yin wind everywhere and lighting the ghost fire, so that the villagers who originally only believed in 5 points believed in seven or eight points or even ten points, and they really hated Xue Rou.

The village chief was blocked at the door of his house, unable to get in and out, and was very helpless.

"Village chief, you have to take care of this matter, you can't let the quack doctor harm us anymore!"

"Yes, village chief, she hasn't been cured for so many days, why should we trust them?!"

"Village Chief! If you don't go, we'll go by ourselves! ”

The village chief couldn't persuade him, so he could only watch the villagers holding sickles, hoes, shovels and the like in their homes, and he was afraid that something would happen to them, so he had to follow them.

At this time, the Taoist priest also followed the villagers' team leisurely, looking like he was watching a good show.

Xue Roucai finished stewing the medicine in the kitchen and let Fu Zhi drink it, and when he came out, he heard the noisy sound outside, which led Yuan Junfeng out.

"Xue Rou! Yuan Junfeng! Open the door! ”

She put the medicine cup in her hand on the table, wiped her hands and went to open the door, and saw the villagers with strangely shaped weapons, looking at her with righteous indignation.

"Xue Rou! It's all your doing! ”

Xue Rou said strangely, "What did I do?" ”

Yuan Junfeng came over and grabbed her shoulders and looked at these people with an unkind face, "What do you want to do?" ”

"What to do?! We need to get our own justice! ”
