We're surrounded.
Chen Zejun's already small courtyard was surrounded by water, and the most advanced group of people had already broken through the gate and poured into the courtyard.
These people all have guys in their hands, some old and some young, and of course Shen Weng's relatives.
Some of them cried and grabbed the ground, and some scolded loudly, but they had only one purpose, that is, to let Chen Zejun hand us over.
It's very strange, the people in this village seem to have a very weak sense of the law, from the discovery of Shen Weng's body to now, let alone three or four hours, there is no one who called the police.
Chen Zejun stood in the courtyard and confronted these fellows, while the panda and I hid in the room. General Night is in a better state today, but he is still dizzy, this guy is lazily lying on the bed eating melon seeds, and while eating, he asks us, are these villagers crazy?
I smiled bitterly, saying that I was crazy but not crazy, but I was a little emotional, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get through it today, and Chen Zejun alone would never be able to stop so many fellow villagers.
In the blink of an eye, it was ten o'clock in the afternoon, and the people outside the door shouted even more arrogantly. One of the leaders was Shen Weng's son, who was holding an angular stone in his hand and asked Chen Zejun sharply why he wanted to shield the murderer.
In their subconscious, Panda and I are already murderers, which is an indisputable fact.
Although Shen Weng is only a side branch in the Shen family, not a descendant, after all, his surname is Shen, and the people of their family are used to giving orders in Heilongshan Village.
In the face of so many angry villagers, Chen Zejun's attitude did not dare to be too hard, plus he himself was a murderer, and he had no confidence, so he had to accompany the smiling face, saying that Panda and I were his colleagues, and they were at home all day yesterday and had never gone out, so where would they hurt Shen Weng. I'm afraid that the real murderer is at large and has escaped from the village, so it is most reliable to send someone to hunt him down outside the village first.
Shen Weng's son still didn't follow, and after a stalemate for a long time, he finally made a move, and a piece of bluestone smashed on Chen Zejun's head, saying sharply that if Chen Zejun didn't let us out, he would break in with the villagers.
Chen Zejun didn't expect Shen Weng's son to really hurt people, and this time he was smashed on the head with a knot, and he sat down on the ground all of a sudden, holding his head and shouting "killed".
The villagers are usually kind and angry, but it is rare to see such a violent scene, and when they saw Chen Zejun's head really bleeding, they didn't dare to step forward, hula and watched in a circle.
The panda and I saw it clearly in the room, but I was afraid that if we didn't go out again, Chen Zejun's little life would be over. After thinking about it, I can't hide from the fifteenth day of junior high school, so let's just go out.
I walked out with the panda, and I shouted: "Don't beat Xiao Chen, they are all neighbors, it's not good to hurt the harmony." โ
As soon as the villagers saw me and the panda come out with two unfamiliar faces, they immediately became agitated, and they couldn't wait to correct me and the panda on the spot.
The villagers who came over today seemed to be some unknown people, and the descendants of the Shen family and the descendants of the Zhang family were not present.
However, among this group of irascible villagers, I suddenly felt that a pair of cold eyes were particularly eye-catching. This gaze is somewhat similar to Shen Weng's gaze, and when he looked at it, he saw an old woman standing behind Shen Weng's son, with a rickety figure, a huge black mole on her face, triangular eyes, and very vicious.
I guessed that this woman Bacheng was Shen Weng's daughter-in-law, and her name was Shen Po, and I later learned that my guess was correct.
The old woman seemed to be somewhat insightful, and instead of being overturned by hatred and anger like the other villagers or her son, her face was calm, her eyes were calm, and she didn't seem to be easy to mess with.
A woman who can marry Shen Weng must have some skills in her hands......
When the panda and I walked over, Shen Weng's son was suddenly anxious, he grabbed a long stick, glared at us, and said, "You pay for my father's life!" โ
I sneered and asked him, "What evidence do you have that we killed the man?" Isn't it appropriate to put the blame on outsiders who have nothing to do with this village when they take their lives? โ
Shen Weng's son didn't seem to expect me to defend himself, and maybe in his subconscious, Panda and I should kneel down and confess our guilt as soon as we came out, crying bitterly. He was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes, and said sharply: "Everyone in the village knows each other, and no one will hurt my father, so it is definitely the two of you who do it!" If you don't admit it, you have to admit it! โ
I laughed and said in a deep voice: "I have no grievances with your father, and we only heard about your father after we came here yesterday...... Why do you think we killed him? โ
Shen Weng's son is obviously not good at doing this kind of inference work, he just insisted that me and the panda were very suspicious, and said categorically: "Anyway, if you come to the village, my father will die, if you didn't kill it, who else can there be?" I'm going to search you now, and I'm sure I'll be able to find evidence!" โ
Shen Weng's son is not stupid, and he also knows how to search for evidence. But after all, the panda and I have a lot of precious items on us, how can we let such a bastard boy search our bodies?
I shook my head and said, "It's okay to be searched, but I don't accept a search from your villagers. Unless you go through the formal judicial process. โ
Shen Weng's son sneered: "What kind of judicial procedure, in our village, it must be in accordance with our rules." โ
Speaking of this, Shen Weng's son strode forward, slammed the stick in his hand towards my head, and said sharply: "Don't be honest with me yet!" โ
I smiled softly and reached out to catch the stick in his hand with ease. These days, I have been practicing the Tao day and night, and my physical functions have made great progress, and ordinary people's moves are not threatening to me, so I don't have to be afraid.
"It is now a society governed by the rule of law, and the abuse of private practice is prohibited." As I spoke, I exerted force in my hand, and the stick in Shen Weng's son's hand immediately took off his hand and entered my hand.
Shen Weng's son's face changed color and rushed towards me, as if he wanted to greet me in the face.
At this time, Shen Po, who was standing not far away, said in a deep voice: "Erbao, come back!" Don't do it! โ
Shen Po's eyesight is quite vicious, she should see that I have a mystical technique, and her son is by no means an opponent.
It's a pity that Shen Weng's son didn't listen to his mother's words, but he still rushed up, but of course I twisted his arm, pushed him, and stumbled back into the crowd.
When the villagers saw that their people had suffered losses, they immediately huddled together and prepared to rush forward.
I snapped: "Why are the people in your village unreasonable, there is no royal law, right?" โ
At this point, Shen Po suddenly stepped forward, looked at us with cold eyes, and said faintly: "I didn't see it, the two distinguished guests are people with uneducated people......
I smiled bitterly: "I don't dare to do this, we are just here to catch up with Xiao Chen." โ
Shen Po was noncommittal, just looked into my eyes and asked, "Young man, let me ask you, is my old man your fault?" โ
Looking at Shen Po's eyes, I shook my head calmly: "The murderers are definitely not the two of us. โ
I played a trick with this sentence, because the person who killed Shen Weng was indeed not me and the panda.
The real murderer, Chen Zejun, sat aside, wrapped his knocked out head with his shirt, and was silent.
Shen Po's eyes changed when she looked at me, and finally sighed: "Our village is poor and remote, why do you want to come here?" Now there is a lot of life...... You're always out of business......"
Listening to this old lady's meaning, it seems that whether we are murderers or not, we have to be responsible.
I frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?" โ
Old Lady Shen sneered: "It's not interesting, you are murderers, then you have to pay for your life." You are not murderers...... Hey...... I'm afraid that the end will not be much better...... Because our village has never welcomed outsiders, outsiders will only bring bad luck to our village...... My old man is dead, and you are always responsible! โ
Speaking of this, Old Lady Shen gritted her teeth and said angrily: "These two outsiders killed the old man of my family, folks, you have to be the master of the old woman!" โ
Shen Po was still normal at first, but she didn't expect to become an old neurotic who pretended to be crazy and stupid in a blink of an eye.
When the villagers saw me pushing Shen Weng's son away, they had long wanted to give him a head, but when they heard Shen Po's order, they instantly burst out......
The knives, guns and sticks in his hands came towards us like raindrops, Chen Zejun hugged his head and fled behind us, and said in a low voice: "Why don't we run over the back wall?" โ
The panda said in a deep voice, "No. Speaking of this, he took a step forward, grabbed Shen Weng's son, who was holding a kitchen knife in the first hand, and picked him up like a chicken, and said sharply: "Want to fight?" Good. You use the guy, I use him, see whose weapon is strong, how? โ
