I looked at that arm, my heart jumped suddenly, and I just wanted to step forward to block it, but Shen Moying grabbed that arm.

The pus and blood on the arm flowed down her fingers, and when it fell to the ground, it made a crackling sound.

Shen Mo wailed and cried, as if venting his grievances over the years.

When I saw Brother Chen's corpse, I trembled slightly, as if I was remorseful and ashamed. He grabbed his cheek with one hand, and his mouth also made a whining sound, just like the wind howling, which made people's scalps tingle to listen to.

Shen Mozhi squatted down, covering his cheeks, still whimpering in a low voice, but Brother Chen's arm approached her head little by little, and stroked Shen Mocheng's hair with some apprehension.

His movements were very gentle, as if he could still see his former lover, the ghost fire in his eyes was extinguished little by little at this time, and there seemed to be a trace of sadness in his bottomless eyes.

"Quick... Escape..."'Brother Chen's face seemed to be filled with pain and struggle, and he turned around and rushed out of the courtyard.

Shen Mocheng's crying was even louder, and the tears were like a flood that burst the embankment, and my whole body froze in place, and the soles of my feet were bubbling cold.

When 'Brother Chen' came back, he actually asked Shen Mo to flee quickly......

This is not what Xue Liangui said at all, he was reluctant to let his wife come back and have a look, but came back to inform Shen Mozhi and asked her to escape quickly!

Could it be that Sanwangzhai has become a dead place? Even 'Brother Chen' already feels it?

I hurriedly picked up Shen Mo and took her into the house, and then gently put her on the bed. I was thinking of leaving, but she grabbed the clothes on my chest, making me hesitate for a moment.

I don't know how long it took before I felt that her crying was much quieter, and all the grievances in my heart seemed to have dissipated a lot at once tonight.

The moonlight fell and shone on some of her beautiful cheeks, and I was stunned.

Shen Mozhi raised his head, glanced at me, and asked me with red eyes, "Yang Sheng, do you think I'm a prodigal?" ”

I immediately shook my head and said, "No, I never thought of it that way." ”

Shen Mozhi's eyes were a little dim, like a child who needed to be taken care of, I hesitated for a moment, then jumped on the bed, and let her lie in my arms, giving her the warmth she needed the most.

Shen Mo was in my arms, like a kitten, and whispered: "At the beginning, you and Brother Chen came together by dragging the matchmaker's blessing. Your brother Chen is very good to me, and I love him very much, but we seem to be inseparable......"

I listened, I didn't speak, maybe I should be playing the role of a listener.

Shen Mozhi continued: "After your brother Chen died, I was heartbroken and wanted to go with him, but when I thought that after he died, there was no one to pay tribute to, so I stubbornly survived and kept filial piety for him for three years. Three years later, my mother's family forced me to remarry, I didn't agree, but my mother's family accepted the benefits, and I could only resign myself to fate, who knew that the unlucky ghost didn't even meet me, so there was an accident......"

Only then did I know that this was the case back then, and Shen Mozhi did have rumors of remarrying at the beginning, but I didn't expect that it was his mother's family who received the benefits.

Shen Mo sighed and said: "After this person died, I was said to be Kefu's life, but I didn't care at all, and then Sanlaizi pestered me......"

My heart tightened, and what I seemed to know most was the live spring palace between her and Sanlaizi in the bud rice field.

"Who is Sanlaizi, how could I not know? I didn't agree at all, but he threatened me with a knife and dragged me to the field, and at that time someone happened to pass by and stopped Sanlaizi, otherwise my sister-in-law would really suffer......" Shen Mozhi's eyes turned red again, and then said: "I escaped, disheveled, but I was bumped into by the people in the village, and then the rumors appeared, and most importantly, that night, Sanlaizi had an accident......"

I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, fortunately nothing happened at the time, but in my heart, I had some contempt for myself, which may be a common problem of men, in some ways, the woman I fantasize about can't let others get involved.

Shen Mozhi said softly: "Now, the whole village has called me Kefu, but I am not convinced, so I dress up carefully every day, stand in the yard, and take the initiative to speak to every man in the village, I just want to tell everyone that I am not a Kefu life......"

I tightened my arms, and my pity for Shen Mo was another layer.

"Sister-in-law, who stopped Sanlaizi in the first place?" I asked softly.

Shen Mozhi's face was a little strange, and he whispered, "It's your aunt......"

I shuddered, "My mother? ”

Shen Mozhi nodded lightly, didn't say anything, just lay in my arms, as if greedily enjoying this moment of warmth.

I'm still in shock, my mother, a woman, actually saved Shen Moying? And it was saved from the hands of Sanlaizi?

I don't know how long it took for Shen Mozhi to fall asleep, but there were still tear stains on her eyelashes, proving that she had cried just now.

I pulled the quilt with one hand and gently covered the two of us, not wanting to disturb her who had just fallen asleep, it was like a dream, and I was in this dream. Being able to sleep with the delicate Widow Chen is the dream of almost all the men in the village, but I don't have that dirty mind, I just want to help her protect it, this rare peace.

I don't know if I'm particularly stupid about this idea, but I really don't want to think anything about her at this time. In other words, I was shocked by the words of 'Brother Chen' in my heart.

Run!

Why run away? It must be that Sanwangzhai is not safe, otherwise how could they escape?

The next morning, I got up early, and when I saw that Shen Mozhi had disappeared, I hurriedly jumped out of bed and ran towards Second Uncle Zhang's house.

As soon as Second Uncle Zhang came back from the field, I pulled him and walked to the corner and told Second Uncle Zhang what happened last night.

Second Uncle Zhang's face sank suddenly, stared at me and said, "Yang Sheng, are you sure you heard the words 'escape'?" ”

"That's right!" I say.

Second Uncle Zhang put down the hoe and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard, "Quick, go to the ancestral hall with me to have a look......"

I followed behind Second Uncle Zhang and ran all the way to the ancestral hall.

The door of the ancestral hall was pushed open, and the smell of rot rushed up to me, almost knocking me on my head.

I followed, and hurriedly looked inside, my face suddenly pale.

There were dozens of coffins in the cellar, one pressed after another, layer upon layer, and the smell of decay was even greater, but the female corpse covered with a white cloth disappeared, leaving only three curved peach trees, and even the purple gold compass disappeared.

My eyes almost bulged out, and I sat on the ground in fright, chilling all over.

Second Uncle Zhang's eyes were also red, and he clenched his five fingers tightly, and his teeth were rattling and crunching.

"How so? What about the female corpse? "My eyes widened, I could hardly believe what was happening in front of me.

Second Uncle Zhang's hands trembled and opened the door of the cellar wider so that more sunlight could shine in, but the cellar was empty, leaving only the three peach trees.

"It's over! Finished! Second Uncle Zhang suddenly closed the cellar door with despair on his face.

"Second Uncle...... "My eyes are red, "what's going on?" ”

"Someone must have moved the purple gold compass, otherwise there would be no such a big thing, the female corpse is obviously suppressed here, it is impossible to escape......" Second Uncle Zhang also panicked, and there was no way for a while.

My body shook, and an unbelievable thought burst out in my mind, this purple gold compass has been in the ancestral hall, these days to take care of the ancestral hall, only Uncle Zhang, if the purple gold compass is stolen, then it must be directly faced with Second Uncle Zhang, who can take the purple gold compass away without Uncle Zhang knowing?

If there were such people in the village, I should have known about it a long time ago, and it is impossible that I have not heard of any news.

What if it's a self-stealing guard?

Second Uncle Zhang looked at the ancestral hall in pain, his legs were weak, and he knelt down directly, "I'm a sinner!" I'm a sinner in our Sanwangzhai......"

I looked at Second Uncle Zhang's painful expression, and felt a little uncomfortable, and hesitated for a while. Is this really Second Uncle Zhang, a ghost behind his back?

I shook my head and immediately denied the idea, I suspected Second Uncle Zhang for the first time, because I guessed that only he could steal the purple gold compass. But think about it in another direction, why not guess by who needs the purple gold compass the most?

Suddenly, a person flashed through my mind, and I was absolutely sure that it must be him......

"I know who it is......" I said suddenly, turned and ran towards the stockade.

As soon as Second Uncle Zhang heard me say this, he hurriedly followed, and it seemed that he understood in an instant.

"Go check it out!" Second Uncle Zhang shouted loudly.

I turned around and rushed towards the stockade, and at this time there was only one person who needed the purple gold compass, the second leper.

I remember very clearly that Second Uncle Zhang dragged all the coffins back to the ancestral hall, but only two were missing. One of them is the eldest brother of the Chen family, and the other is the father of the second leper, Old Man Xie.

If the eldest brother of the Chen family came back, wouldn't that mean that Old Man Xie was also back? If Old Man Xie really came back, what tricks would the two lepers use to deal with his father? It must have stolen the purple gold compass.

Second Uncle Zhang and I rushed to the second leper's house in one breath, kicked open the courtyard door with our feet, and rushed in with great strides.

As soon as I pushed the door open, I smelled a foul smell coming from the house, and I glanced into the room, and my heart sank to the bottom.
