Chapter 36: Grievances and Grievances (Revised)
Listening to their words, I sighed, and I was not in the mood to ask how the two of them became friends, so I looked at Wu Can and asked him, "Is Wu Lao's death related to you?" ”
When he heard this, his expression froze, and he didn't speak, but the third master spoke, and he said: "This matter does have something to do with Miss Su, but the real mastermind behind the scenes is not her." ”
"Who's that?" I hurriedly asked.
The third master didn't speak, but looked at Wu Can, as if asking what Wu Can meant, and Wu Can smiled and said, "Golden Good." ”
As soon as I heard this name, I felt as if I had been struck by lightning, and said in a trembling voice: "You mean that Huang Jinshan killed Old Wu and killed Old Lady Wu." ”
When mentioning Old Wu, Wu Can was stunned, but finally nodded and said slowly: "You may not know that Huang Jinshan is the son of Old Lady Wu and my cousin. ”
I'm even more confused, Huang Jinshan is the son of Mrs. Wu.
No, if Huang Jinshan is the son of Mrs. Wu, then Mrs. Wu should not die!
I asked this doubt, and Wu Can's explanation to me was that Mrs. Wu was not killed by Wu Can, but committed suicide in order to protect Jin Jinshan.
I really can't agree with that.
Wu Can should have seen my doubts, handed me a lady's cigarette, and said, "Little brother, have time to listen to me a story." ”
I took the cigarette and didn't light it, so I hummed.
Wu Can told me that it was a series of events in Niuwang Village, and it had to start with Niuwang Village becoming a land of red dust.
said yes, after Niuwang Village became a land of red dust at that time, those original villagers were divided into two factions, one was to support Du Sanniang to make Niuwang Village a land of red dust, and the other was to support Mrs. Wu to drive Du Sanniang and her girls out.
In this way, these two factions often contradict each other.
The result was obvious, Mrs. Wu's faction was completely crushed, and it was not until the appearance of one person that the situation was changed.
This person is Wu Lao.
At first, Wu Lao knew that his son was following Du Sanniang to do that kind of thing, Wu Lao's mood could be imagined, he didn't say a word, and beat Wu Can half to death, and then later, I don't know what happened, this Wu Lao actually got along with Du Sanniang.
How it was good, Wu Can said that he didn't know. However, he told me that Wu Lao and Du Sanniang had a child, and the child was buried alive by Du Sanniang.
It was precisely because Wu Lao and Du Sanniang got along that Du Sanniang took a step back, gave each of the original residents of Niuwang Village a house, and gave each of them how much money they paid each month, which made Niuwang Village live in peace.
However, Mrs. Wu was not reconciled, and kept thinking about driving Du Sanniang out, so she found her brother, that is, Wu Lao, to discuss the matter.
When I said this, the third master said something on the side that made me completely confused, he said: "Wu Lao is the captain of a detachment of the Eighth Office, and then I don't know what happened, Wu Lao quit the Eighth Office and lived a life of idle clouds and wild cranes. ”
As soon as I heard it, I suddenly felt that the whole thing was a bit eyebrow-raising, if I guessed correctly, the reason why Huang Jinshan was able to enter the eighth office was probably because of Wu Lao.
If this is the case, the whole thing can be easily explained, it is very likely that Huang Jinshan used his identity as a ghost craftsman to do something on the Seven Evil Huai, and even Wu Lao was involved in it.
When I said this idea, Wu Can said that the truth was similar to what I guessed, the so-called Seven Evil Huai was actually made by Huang Jinshan and Wu Lao, and the reason why Wu Lao invited me over was actually a scene of thieves shouting to catch thieves.
Wait, the time doesn't seem to be right, I heard Mrs. Wu say that the strange thing happened to the Seven Acacia twenty years ago, and that Jin Jinshan is only in his twenties, how could he do something on the Seven Acacia.
For this doubt, Wu Can explained it like this, he said, there were indeed some strange things about the Seven Acacia at that time, but it was definitely not what the villagers said, it was just a little abnormal, the reason why it was so miraculous was that Du Sanniang spread rumors in the village, and the villagers spread false rumors, which deified the entire Seven Acacia.
Well, this phenomenon does exist in the countryside, and in addition to the fact that the countryside is generally more superstitious, it is reasonable for the village to be evacuated.
However, there is one thing I still don't understand, since Wu Lao and Huang Jinshan are the masterminds behind the whole thing, why did Wu Lao die?
I asked this doubt, and Wu Can's explanation to me was that there was a conflict between Huang Jinshan and Wu Lao, that is, Wu Lao advocated building a temple, and using the coercion of the temple to make the business of the entire Niuwang Village flourish, while Huang Jinshan advocated cutting down the Qisha Huai, taking a piece of wood from the center of the Qisha Huai, and making a Luban ruler.
Because of this, the two often fought, and in the end, they fought for life and death.
It's okay if he doesn't explain, but when he explains, I'm even more confused, because the final result is that Wu Lao designed to cut down the Seven Acacia, and once the Seven Acacia is cut down, it will inevitably destroy the direction of the five movements of the entire Niuwang Village, and eventually cause the entire Niuwang Village to become an ordinary village.
To put it bluntly, that is, Wu Lao helped Huang Jinshan achieve his wish, isn't this contradictory?
I asked Wu Can why, and he said that he didn't know what Wu Lao thought.
To be honest, I still don't understand what all this is about, mainly because it's too complicated. However, life is the same, not everything can know the answer, maybe only Wu Lao knows what is going on.
However, I have analyzed Wu Lao, and the final result is that Wu Lao originally wanted to help his sister, so he and Huang Jinshan worked together on the Qisha Huai, but Wu Lao found that he had no feelings for Du Sanniang, so he changed his initial idea and turned back to help Du Sanniang. In the end, she found that Du Sanniang was tired and wanted to be good, so she designed to cut down the Seven Acacia.
In the end, Wu is always trapped by 'love'.
As for what the specific truth is, with the death of Wu Lao, it can be regarded as completely disappearing from the world. However, it is impossible to deny that Wu Lao's death is likely to be caused by Huang Jinshan, after all, in the whole thing, only Huang Jinshan survived, that is to say, Huang Jinshan is the biggest beneficiary of the whole thing.
At that moment, I took a deep breath, barely calmed myself, and asked Wu Can: "Do you know where the golden goodness is?" ”
He was slightly stunned, stared at my face for a while, took out a cigarette, lit it, and said slowly: "I know! ”
"Where?" I looked anxious and hurriedly asked.
