Zhu Fan knew that he would come to such a show, and he didn't think that the little er named Xiaodouzi would hide this matter from him.

But since things have developed to this point, she didn't think about really fooling the past, and three people died, if she didn't make it clear to Xiao Jiu, maybe this former flower thief who was so idle that he panicked would follow her.

So after thinking about it, she sat across a coffee table from Xiao Jiu, and after a moment of silence, she asked, "Have you ever heard of human sacrifice?" ”

As the name suggests, it means to treat people as sacrifices.

Xiao Jiu had been running on the rivers and lakes for so many years, and he had never heard of anything, so although he was surprised that the little girl would suddenly mention this to him, he still nodded.

Zhu Fan took a deep breath, "Brother Yun and I both came out of Zhujia Village, I believe Brother Xiao also knows this, what I want to say is about the human sacrifice in Zhujia Village, and this Chen Qing is the key to human sacrifice." ”

Chen Qing is a fortune teller, and Xiao Jiu, who has been mixed in the Tao, knows very well that things like gods are inseparable from fortune tellers, so when Zhu Fanyi talked about human sacrifice, he had this association.

But I still don't understand why she came to Chen Qing specifically for this matter, this kind of thing shouldn't be in the hands of her little girl's family.

What's more, she doesn't have the ability to predict the future, how can she know that Chen Qing is the key to this, and not other fortune tellers?

Zhu Fan saw that he didn't speak, but he couldn't help but play the drum in his heart, and the next moment he gave full play to his talent for acting, his eyes drooped with red eyes, and even his voice was choked.

"It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized, but ...... But I can't help it, I don't want to be suspected of being a murderer, so I can only tell the truth, you may not believe it, that Chen Qing is the one my stepmother bought with her daughter......"

sniffed, and tears really slipped down her face, and Xiao Jiu's heart tightened, and he subconsciously had a conjecture.

"You mean, your stepmother wants you to ......"

"That's right," Xiao Jiu's words were not finished, but the meaning was obvious, Zhu Fan didn't hide it, and raised his red eyes to look at him.

"This matter couldn't be told to people outside the village, but I really didn't want to die, so I asked Brother Yun to help me inquire about Chen Qing's whereabouts, and wanted to send people away with silver before that person entered the village, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen, I ...... I don't know what to do anymore......"

She cried so hard that her tears fell in large chunks.

Although they have only known each other for two days, Xiao Jiu really likes this little girl with a simple and unpretentious temperament, she has seen her before and is very unruly, how could she have thought that she had such a thing hidden in her heart, and she cried so sadly.

For a while, Xiao Jiu's heart was washed soft by the tears, and it was not a taste, so he took out a square handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to her, his voice was a little soft.

"In other words, you want to send people away, and then find a fortune teller from the street to fake that Taoist priest to help you resolve this disaster?"

How else to say that Xiao Jiu is not a simple person, Zhu Fan didn't get up for a while, he had already thought of the rest of the matter, such a person is not easy to fool in the past, and he really can't say it without a few real tears.

Zhu Fan took the handkerchief he handed over, wiped his face, and nodded without concealment.

"They also asked others to help find Chen Qing, I haven't seen him yet, I heard that we will meet in a few days, I want to meet before them."

After speaking, she looked up at Xiao Jiu suddenly, although her face was not full of sadness, tears seemed to fall uncontrollably.

"Brother Xiao, I really don't want to die, really, it's not that I don't follow the rules that have been passed down for thousands of years, but I really don't want to die, even if I die, I don't want to die in this way!"

She looked stubborn, not like such a cowardly show of weakness, but with the determination of what was inevitable, as if she was going to save herself from this seemingly farcical sacrifice no matter what the cost.

Xiao Jiu was moved, he was a person in the rivers and lakes, and he had seen a lot of fierce women in the rivers and lakes, but seeing such a look on the face of an ordinary country girl made him have to be moved.

Pursing her lips, she wanted to speak, but she heard the little girl speak again.

"Do you know Brother Xiao, I was almost killed by them several times before, although I hated them, but I never thought that it really hurt their lives, but don't people often say that rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, I don't want to sit still, people don't kill for themselves, they can want my life for those trivial things, why can't I defend myself, can't I save my life from their hands? So Brother Xiao, can you ignore this matter and stop caring about me? ”

Xiao Jiu's heart tightened, and he was shocked by those firm eyes with watery intentions, and only after reacting for a while did he say: "Fanfan, how can you guarantee that you can really get your way, in case it is debunked, you can ......"

"I can't manage so much," Zhu Fan sniffed, as if he was enduring the blockage in his throat, "Everything is possible, I don't know if it works until I try, if I don't try, I will send my life to others in vain, even if I die, I will not be reconciled." ”

After speaking, she pursed her lips tightly and didn't let herself cry anymore, but instead pinched Xiao Jiu's hand on the table, her eyes were sincere.

"Brother Xiao, Brother Yun doesn't know about this, he knows that he will make trouble, I don't want him to worry, and I don't want anyone who cares about me to worry, so please, don't tell him, and don't let people follow me anymore, okay?"

Maybe she was unconscious, and she had just come back from outside, and her soft little hands were still a little cold.

But Xiao Jiu's heart trembled because of her unintentional move, and after staring at her for a while, she said with some astringency: "Okay, I won't tell him, but you tell me the truth, who do you want to die, stepmother?" Or her daughter? ”

He asked too bluntly, almost without a trace of suspicion, which made Zhu Fan's hand on the back of his hand stiffen.

"Fanfan, you don't think I can't see your ultimate goal, do you?" Xiao Jiu didn't move that hand, but looked at her and said, "You are not the kind of person who will be slaughtered. ”

has been running in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, if he can't even see a person clearly in a short time, then he will run for so many years.

Zhu Fan obviously didn't expect him to see through his thoughts, so he moved his hand sideways and wanted to stop it, but he was grabbed by Xiao Jiu's wrist instead.

Zhu Fan turned his head and met the pair of fox eyes, but in the end he pulled his hand out from under his hand.

"Now that you've seen through it, I have nothing to hide." Lightly hooked his lips, Zhu Fan did not hide from meeting his eyes.

If this person really wants to block what she is going to do next, even if he knows how to do kung fu, she will do everything she can to get rid of the trouble.

"That's right," she said, "I'm not a man to be slaughtered, and now that I know that someone wants my life, if I don't do anything, will it be true that I will have to wait until the day when the matter is settled?" Brother Xiao, if it were you, what would you do? ”

Indeed, it was indeed a risky thing to tell this to someone she had just known for less than three days, and even if this person was still a friend of Brother Yun, but she wanted to gamble on it.

If you win the bet, you will no longer have to worry about it, and if you lose the bet......

"I think I'll be like you."

Maybe the little girl's eyes were too cold, or maybe it was her eyes that saw her determination, Xiao Jiu's intuition told him that if he had the idea of leaking this matter despite her thoughts, she would definitely not stop there.

It would not be easy to deal with anyone who had the courage to sneak into the dead man's room alone at night when he saw the death of those three people.

And he didn't want her to look at him like that.

The surprise in Zhu Fan's eyes flashed, causing Xiao Jiu to chuckle, and then he leaned back in the chair and became the lazy shopkeeper Xiao again.

"You don't think I'm the kind of woman, do you? I've killed more people than you've ever walked. ”

Since he was a child, his wish was to eliminate violence and be peaceful, but later he felt that his idea was too stupid, bad people may be worse, but good people may not always be good.

Since he had this kind of enlightenment, he no longer judged the good or bad of this person by his actions, but by his intuition and mood.

He thinks that he is not a good person, otherwise he would not have been in the rivers and lakes for more than ten years in the name of a flower thief.

Zhu Fan looked at him, and the two of them didn't speak for a while, Zhu Fan was thinking about what kind of person the person in front of him was, while Xiao Jiu was thinking about how much surprise the little girl in front of him would bring him.

Rolling his eyes, Xiao Jiu got up and leaned over to Zhu Fan's side, opened his fox eyes wide, and said, "Shall I help you?" ”

It's an inquiring tone, but the eyes are full of fun.

Zhu Fan frowned, "Don't be kidding, I'll be grateful to you if you don't tell others." ”

Although Xiao Jiu does look good, and she doesn't have the hypocrisy she hates, it doesn't mean that she can pull people she has known for less than three days into her plan, which is too risky and unreal.

Xiao Jiu pursed his lips, raised his eyebrows to look at her, and said with interest: "No kidding, do you think I'm joking?" As I said, I've killed more people than you've walked. ”

In his place, as long as it is "bad" in his opinion, then there is no need to tolerate it, living in this world is hard enough, why give others the opportunity to harm themselves?

Zhu Fan really couldn't see through this person, she thought that even if the person she knew with Brother Yun was not a good person, he should not be a person with human blood on his hands, Xiao Jiu, subverted her understanding of people as a group.

"Find someone else, the chance of revealing the stuff is at least ninety percent, look for me, no," Xiao Jiu saw that she didn't speak for a long time, so he came to her, stretched out his finger to gesture, and then asked, "Are you sure you can refuse?" ”
