It turned out that Qi Jing went to find Li Zheng early in the morning, saying that his house originally had a half-foot-high pure gold Buddha, which could not be burned, but after that day he went back to look for it, but did not find it, and there was no trace of others entering the fire, so it could only be taken away in advance.

Therefore, he wanted to ask the villagers to help him think about whether anyone had appeared nearby on the day of the fire, and if he could find this Bodhisattva statue, he would like to be rewarded with ten taels of silver.

As soon as he heard the news, Tang Shiyue understood what he meant.

The countrymen are all together, especially the outsiders have an instinctive rejection, and besides, even if someone sees someone who they see, they don't dare to say it at will, otherwise they will say it wrong all of a sudden, wouldn't it make people bear a bad name? But Jubao Village is so big, who in the village doesn't know whom? Anyone will see you do anything.

So, in this way, it's easy to say. Wealth touches people's hearts, which means that the whole village is helping him find it.

By the way, it is only now that the people in the village have figured out the names of the people, and it turns out that the surname is not Qi, but the surname is Qi, which is called Qijing.

Tang Shiyue said: "Is there a letter?" ”

"I don't know!" Zhou Niangzi said: "The area of the Qi family is not dense, so it depends on whether anyone sees it when they go up the mountain." ”

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly heard someone shouting.

Zhou Niangzi was about to pull Tang Shiyue to see the excitement, Tang Shiyue had to take a step back and put the fish and vegetables by the door.

I saw a person pulling Chen Leprosy's head, the two were fighting and arguing, and one said, "I'm watching!" You've been hanging around the door of prayer for the past two days! ”

"What nonsense!" Chen Lezi said: "How can I have time to go there!" ”

"It's clear that you stole someone else's heirloom! Don't hurry up and return it yet! ”

"What heirlooms, I don't know!"

The person who grabbed Chen's head was also an uncle of Tang Shiyue, named Tang Shunzi. As soon as he shouted like this, Tang Shiyue suddenly remembered that just the day before the fire, she also ran into Chen Lezi's head at the door of the prayer house! Chen Lezi also talked to her!

Tang Shiyue said loudly: "I remember!" ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at her, Tang Shiyue thought about what Qi Jing said at that time, pointed to Chen Lezi's head and said, "Tung oil!" It's you, it's you who led the other people's pyres with tung oil! ”

Chen's face changed at that time.

Everyone was also taken aback, after all, stealing things is one thing, this is deliberately setting fire...... It becomes murder for money!

Looking at the expression on Chen's head again, it is tantamount to acquiescence! Someone said: "Let's go, go and talk to Lizheng!" ”

Tang Shiyue was originally cheating him, but in fact, she didn't know the specific operation process, so she said: "Wait a minute, let's go to his house first!" I found the evidence, so I can talk to Li Zheng! ”

She was looking for a tool to commit the crime, but everyone inevitably thought of the "Pure Gold Buddha", and they immediately rushed to Chen's house.

Chen Leprosy's head is long and tired, he didn't ask for a daughter-in-law when he was almost thirty, and his father and mother died early, leaving him with three rooms, and there was no one else in the family.

The people of the village rushed in, rummaged everywhere, and soon found a small bucket of tung oil, as well as a strip of cloth wrapped around tung oil, and this time, almost confirmed his guilt.

But the Buddha statue was never found.

The place is so big, this thing can't be hidden, it must have been sold by him! So a large group of people became even more angry, dragged Chen Lezi's head, and went to Lizheng's house.

There are two big surnames in Jubao Village, Tang and Chen, and there are more people with the surname Tang, but Li Zheng is surnamed Chen, and he is also the patriarch of the Chen family and the uncle of Chen's leprosy head.

Lizheng is equivalent to the village officials set up by the government, generally speaking, four households are neighbors, five neighbors are guarantees, 100 households are li, five li is the township, and each li is one person. In fact, it is not so accurate, and the Great Yan Dynasty does not have a security chief, so Li Zheng's authority is still quite large.

Tang Shiyue's eyes rolled, and he quietly went over to remind Tang Shunzi: "Third uncle, aren't you going to invite our patriarch here?" What if Li is biased towards Chen's head? People are uncles! ”

Tang Shunzi was reminded by her words, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes!" He trotted away.

Chen Lizheng had already heard the voice and greeted him, and as soon as everyone talked about the matter, Chen Lizheng's face was a little dark, and without saying a word, he kicked Chen Lizheng's head: "Tell me what you are doing all day long!" ”

Chen Lezi shrank his head on the ground, didn't dare to raise his head, and only whispered: "Uncle, it's not me." ”

"It's not you, so what's the matter with the tung oil in your house?"

Tung oil is poisonous, can not be eaten, the main thing is to take external use, cure sores, detoxification or something, and then the mountain people are prepared to make torches, sometimes it is inevitable to rush to the mountain at night.

Chen Lezi said: "I used it to wipe my head!" ”

Chen Lizheng said: "You use it to wipe your head, wipe it at home!" What do you wipe outside your home? ”

Chen Lezitou was originally a bad person, he held it for a long time, he couldn't answer, and then he blew up, and jumped up all of a sudden: "It's just a foreigner, what are you doing in our Jubao Village!" Every day, he looks good with his skin, but he can't stand it, and he is eye-catching all over the village! I just don't like them! ”

Chen Li's righteous beard trembled, and he pointed at him: "Qiangzi! Tell me about you bad thing...... What do people do, what does it have to do with you! If you are angry, you can't set it on fire! burned down other people's houses, how can people live! ”

Chen leper stiffened his neck and said, "That was originally the Chen family's house!" Lent it to him for nothing! It's not his house! ”

"You still dare to be tough!" Chen Lizheng kicked him again, "Why don't you hurry up and accompany Qi Xiaolang!" ”

Chen Lezi said: "Why! ”

"Are you listening?" Chen Lizheng glared: "If you are disobedient, I won't have a big ear scraper to shave you to death!" ”

Chen Lezi shrank his neck when he boarded, his father and mother didn't have it early, and he was usually most afraid of this uncle, so he didn't dare to speak, Chen Lizheng just said: "Hurry up!" ”

Chen snorted, and turned his head to look for Qi Jing.

At this moment, I heard someone say: "This is not a matter of setting fire to the house, this is going to kill people!" With these words, the patriarch of the Tang family slowly walked over, and Chen Lizheng's brows suddenly twisted.

The patriarch of the Tang family stroked his beard and said slowly: "The younger brother of the family is still in the house, this is a living life!" Qiangzi, you hurt others so much, don't you feel sorry! ”

Chen Lizheng and the patriarch of the Tang family have been secretly parting with each other, and Chen Lezi did not accept him, so he scolded: "It's just a fool!" What the hell! What if I just burn him! As a result, there are still people who meddle! Phew! He glanced at Tang Shiyue fiercely.

Tang Shiyue looked ignorant, looking very well-behaved.

In fact, she had already typed the draft, thinking about how to pretend to be an eyewitness when the time came, but she didn't expect to be used at all, so Chen Lezi confessed...... To tell the truth, people in these years are really simple enough!

Chen Li's righteous face darkened.

In and out of his words, he turned his murder for money into arson to vent his anger, but it was a pity that Chen Lezitou, a stupid pig, didn't understand this meaning at all, and actually opened his mouth to admit it.

In front of the patriarch of the Tang family, he couldn't release water anymore, so he said with a dark face: "Harm people's lives, you are still reasonable!" As for other people's Buddha statues, hurry up and take them out! ”

"What a Buddha statue! I didn't go into the house, I didn't see any Buddha statues! Chen Lezi had already recruited him anyway, so he said with a grin: "I just plan to burn his little cub, burn his house, and let him get out of our village quickly!" ”

Qi Jing and Qi Yang had been standing in a corner, seeing him so arrogant, they couldn't help but say angrily: "What did I offend you about, you are so vicious?" ”
