Chapter 220: It's Not an Accident, It's He Who Killed
"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" Bai Zidan and Bai Zixin brothers were shocked and shouted.
"Autumn fall, hurry, come and see your milk." Bai Zixin turned his head and shouted at Bai Qiuluo.
Although Bai Zixin was very disappointed in the Wang family, the Wang family was Bai Zixin's mother in the end, he had just lost his father, and he didn't want to see his mother have an accident together.
Hearing Bai Zixin's shout, Bai Qiuluo hurriedly stepped forward to diagnose Wang's pulse.
Although she doesn't like Wang, she won't watch Wang's accident happen, after all, she is also her current grandmother.
Again, she is a doctor, and her medical ethics do not allow her to die without help.
After checking the pulse for the Wang family, Bai Qiuluo said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, it's just that I fainted in anger, and I will wake up in a while, no big problem." ”
After knowing that the Wang family was fine, Bai Zixin and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
And because the Wang family fainted, in the end, Bai Zidan could only carry her back to the old Bai family, and Bai Zixin and Bai Zidan's eldest son Wu Huafei carried the old man's body back to the Bai family's old house.
Originally, Bai Zixin was the youngest, and he had two older brothers, so it was not his turn to stop the old man's body at home.
But one is that the old man Bai lives with Bai Zixin, and the other is that Bai Zidan did not take the initiative to take the old man's body to the old Bai's house.
Bai Zixin knew Bai Zidan's character, since he didn't take the initiative to say that he wanted to take the old man back, he didn't have the intention of letting the old man stop the corpse in the old Bai family.
Bai Zixin didn't want the old man to die and not be at peace under the spring.
So he simply didn't ask, and directly carried the body to his own home.
Besides, he is not ashamed of his heart, and he is not afraid that the old man's ghost will come to him, so he is naturally not afraid of corpses.
Because it was getting late, they originally came out to look for Old Man Bai, although they found the corpse, but they also completed the goal, so when the body of Old Man Bai was sent back to the old mansion, Li Zheng asked everyone to go back to rest first, as for other things, they could only wait for dawn to talk about it.
The Wang family was carried back to the Bai family by Bai Zidan, and Li Zheng and the villagers also left, and for a while, only Bai Zixin's family was left in the Bai family's old house.
Shao Nanchu has been waiting at home for Bai Qiuluo and the others to come back.
He thought that something might happen to the old man, but the most he thought about was that the old man Bai was kidnapped, but he never thought that the old man Bai would die.
Seeing Old Man Bai's pale face, his stiff body no longer had any vitality, and Shao Nanchu's face was not good-looking.
"What's going on?" Shao Nanchu asked in a low voice.
After hearing about Old Man Bai's deeds, he admired Old Man Bai, was also grateful, and felt guilty.
After all, if it weren't for Old Man Bai's perseverance in the initial investigation, his mother, who had just turned one year old, would not have been able to wait for his grandfather's rescue, and might have been killed by the kidnappers.
It was precisely because he chased after him tightly that the other party was afraid of revealing his identity, so he never killed his mother.
But because of this incident, the old man Bai was infamous for treason, and finally came to Xiaoxi Village when he was hiding from the pursuit.
Although he looked down on Old Man Bai for decades when he had made no achievements in Xiaoxi Village, he understood that it was almost impossible for a lame and powerless person to make waves.
finally let him live here because of a coincidence, and also gave Old Man Bai a chance to appeal for many years of grievances, seeing that he was about to take Old Man Bai back to Beijing, but at this moment, Old Man Bai died!
Just died in vain!
Shao Nanchu even felt that God's arrangement was a bit cruel.
"We don't know the exact situation, but Grandpa died in the pond. But judging by the circumstances in which his body was fished out, he was killed. Bai Qiuluo opened his mouth low.
Bai Zixin, who had been with red eyes on the side, looked at her in shock when he heard this: "What did you say in Qiuluo?" You say you're ...... He was killed? ”
Not only Bai Zixin, but also Chen Ping and Gou Zesheng also looked at her with shocked eyes.
"Hmm." Bai Qiuluo nodded slightly, "The wound on grandpa's forehead should have been accidentally knocked on, and he fainted after knocking, his body showed a slight bend, his fingers showed signs of struggle and twisting, and his abdomen had traces of binding, the color was very dark, it should have been tied to a heavy object on his body after fainting, and he was thrown into the water, grandpa woke up after being stimulated into the water, struggling to untie the bound things to escape, but he was unsuccessful, and finally drowned alive." ”
"Yes...... But when the body was fished out, your grandfather's body was clearly floating on the pond, otherwise it would not have been discovered. Bai Zi said.
If the body is floating on the water, it means that the body has not sunk and there is no weight on the body, otherwise it will not float at all.
If it weren't for the discovery of the corpse in the middle of the pond, Li Zheng and the others would not have raised a fire and let people go into the pond to retrieve the corpse.
Bai Qiu didn't say anything, he directly picked up Old Man Bai's clothes, pointed to a circle of blue and black marks on his stomach, and said, "Look, this is the evidence." This circle of seals was a whole circle from front to back, so before he died, he must have been tied to a heavy object. As for the corpse to float up, it should have been untied later, and without gravity, the corpse naturally floated up. ”
Bai Zixin and the others stepped forward and saw the bruises on their stomachs.
Bai Zixin was immediately shocked: "How can this be, your lord is very popular in the village, and there is no one to offend, who is so vicious that he actually killed him?" ”
He always thought that the old man had fallen into the water and died, but he didn't expect it to be murder.
That's what he took for granted.
If you think about it carefully, that path is abandoned, no one has walked it for many years, and it is impossible for anyone to go there, and how could Old Man Bai run there and fall into the water?
At this time, Shao Nanchu's eyes also flickered.
Bai Qiuluo pointed out the truth about Old Man Bai's death, but it made him lose the object of suspicion.
Because the forces he guessed were ruthless and did not compromise their means, if it was them, then they would only have two options after finding Old Man Bai, one was to arrest Old Man Bai back, or to kill him directly.
And this killing, they will not choose such a troublesome means, they will only directly use a sword, a sword through the heart, or directly cut off the head of the old man Bai, they will never use such a troublesome means to kill.
So, who killed Old Man Bai?
When Shao Nanchu's expression was complicated and thinking, Gou Zesheng's immature choking sound sounded.
"No matter who hurt my grandfather, I won't let that person go. Sister, you're going to help me find him and bring him to justice, right? ”
Gou Zesheng's eyes were full of tears, staring at Bai Qiuluo stubbornly, stubbornly refusing to cry.
However, no matter how patient he was, he couldn't stop the tears that fell and couldn't stop choking when he opened his mouth.
"Yes, my sister will definitely find out that person, my sister swears." Bai Qiuluo was so sad to see him, and couldn't help but hug him and make a low promise.
Bai Qiuluo knew very well how deep Gou Zesheng's feelings for Old Man Bai were.
Although Bai Zixin and Chen Ping adopted Gou Zesheng in less than two months, he has learned to cherish his blessings after suffering since he was a child, and Bai Zixin is really good to him, so he also has a sense of belonging to this family.
During this time, Old Man Bai has been teaching Gou Zesheng to read and write, and it can be said that most of the time is spent by his grandfather and grandson together.
And the feelings between people often get along, Gou Zesheng likes this grandfather who is knowledgeable and willing to teach him patiently, Old Man Bai is gone, and his sadness and grief will definitely not be less than that of the real Bai family.
"Sister, sister, I'm so sad." Gou Zesheng couldn't help crying, and the low sobs were heartbreaking.
Bai Qiurong couldn't help but redden.
Chen Ping has been crying silently, and when she saw her sister and brother crying together, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"I don't know which god is so bad, to attack such a kind old man as my father, it's really a shameful thing."
Chen Ping cried and scolded, and kept wiping tears with her hands.
Bai Zixin on the side was also very sad.
Bai Zixin has been pursuing Wang's approval since he was a child and values Wang's views, but Old Man Bai has been good to him since he was a child, and he has never favored his two brothers, so in fact, in his heart, his feelings for Old Man Bai are deeper than those for Wang.
Old Man Bai just left, which was also a huge blow to him.
Shao Nan couldn't cry when he saw the family crying for the first time, and he was also a little sad in his heart.
However, he was more able to control his emotions in the end, so he said in a low voice: "The old man is gone, people can't be resurrected after death, everyone mourns." It is still necessary to take good care of your body, so that you can better face the things to be done later. After all, the old man is still waiting for us to help him find the murderer and let him go more steadily. ”
Shao Nanchu heard Bai Qiuluo say that the old man was dead, and silently added in his heart: "Old man, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to help you wash away your grievances, and I will take care of Luoluo's family, you can go with peace of mind." ”
In the end, Bai Zixin, who was the head of the family, calmed down and said to a few people: "Nan Chu is right, the old man is gone, we can't collapse anymore, it's getting late, everyone goes back to rest first, and the old man's future will be discussed when he gets up tomorrow morning." ”
"Xiao Sheng, can you sleep alone tonight? Do you want to sleep with your parents? Bai Zixin asked Gou Zesheng.
Gou Zesheng came out of Bai Qiuluo's arms at this time, shook his head slightly, and said hoarsely: "Dad, I can do it by myself, I'm not afraid." ”
He is a man, he wants to protect his family in the future, and he should develop the habit of independence from an early age, how can he be afraid? Besides, grandpa's grievances are still waiting for him to wash away, grandpa's ghost must be watching him from heaven, he can't let grandpa worry, let alone let him down.
Bai Zixin saw that Gou Zesheng insisted on sleeping alone, and he didn't force it, so he asked everyone to go back to their rooms to sleep, and the old man's future affairs and the matter of reporting to the official can only wait for tomorrow.
