Chapter 180: Mandrill Reappears
readx;? The catchers came to the beast pen with lanterns, those wild boars had a violent temperament, and the catchers had to tie up the wild boars first, and for a time the whole post house was a pig bark, and the quiet night became extremely lively. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
With a clear goal in mind, they didn't have much effort, and soon found a lot of chopped bones in the pig manure, and even some crumpled hair!
Many objects kept being placed on the long table, and even Wang Buliu and Zong Yun were a little itchy and almost vomited.
Where had Yuan Shuxiang and Ginkgo seen such a scene, they vomited all the leftovers of the night on the spot, even spit out the acid water, and they were still retching.
Yang Jing looked at these flatly, not like others, but silently connected these clues in his heart.
Once Yang Jing thought about it, his spirit would be highly concentrated, and when he almost understood, he realized that something was wrong, the catcher who went to summon Yuan Weidao had not come back yet!
"Wang Dou, I asked Lin Xiaoer to summon Yuan Weidao and his concubine, but he hasn't come back now, you hurry up and take a look!"
Wang Dou had just finished washing the things in the wooden basin, and when he heard Yang Jing say this, he hurriedly wiped his hands, grabbed his waist knife and walked out.
When he walked into the second floor where Yuan Weidao lived, he saw Lin Xiaoer lying upright on the ground, blood gushing out of the back of his head and flowing all over the ground!
"Little two!
Wang Dou hurriedly helped Lin Xiaoer up, tore off his sleeve and pressed the wound on the back of his head, and patted his face gently, seeing that Lin Xiaoer had no reaction, Wang Dou pinched his person again, and Lin Xiaoer woke up in a daze.
"Catch the head, hurry! Yuan Lao'er and his mother-in-law knocked me unconscious, and I guess I have already run away!"
Wang Dou's face changed, and he hurriedly helped Lin Xiaoer up, and instructed him: "I'll chase him out, you go to the kitchen to explain the situation to Lord Yang!"
Lin Xiaoer nodded, held down the wound by himself, and saw that Wang Dou went out to pursue, so he went to the kitchen to report the situation.
The catchers are still searching for miscellaneous pieces from the animal pen, and Yang Jing has already asked people to find Sun Erniang and the old mother who accompanied Yuan Shuxiang to study.
At present, only the two of them are left in the post house, and they can run with kinetic energy.
Listening to Lin Xiaoer's report, Yang Jing didn't seem to be too surprised, so he asked Wang Bu to leave Lin Xiaoer to bandage his wounds, and asked Zong Yun to help Wang Dou pursue Yuan Weidao and his wife, but he walked into the kitchen.
The kitchen was smoky all day long, the walls and roof were already blackened, Yang Jing held up the lantern, and it was easy to spot the bacon on the beams.
Yang Jing saw that Ginkgo was holding Yuan Shuxiang, just waiting outside, so he beckoned to her, and when Ginkgo walked in, he asked, "Who is running this kitchen on weekdays?"
Ginkgo: "Back to my lord, I was originally accompanied by the young master's mother Wu, if Wu's mother is not free, I will cook with Erniang, but the three of us are just replacing the people in the post house, and the men who serve in the summer and autumn are here, so they will cook."
Yang Jing nodded, and asked again, "These bacon are also made of strong men?"
Ginkgo thought for a while, shook her head and said: "It's not that these are all made by Erniang, I heard that Erniang's hometown is in Sichuan, Shu or Qianzhou, and smoked bacon is their specialty."
Yang Jing's face was a little cold, and he asked Ginkgo: "I heard that Sun Erniang is a widow, does she have children at home, and it is said that she does not need to serve as a servant, why does she work in the post house?"
Yin Xing thought about it for a while, and said to Yang Jing: "The slave maid came with Sister Yujiao, and she has been here for more than two years, and I heard Mother Wu say that Erniang has been here for three years. ”
"Erniang is a hard-working woman, I heard that her man is a bun seller, people are honest, but people are good and deceitful, there is a butcher next door who often teases Erniang, Erniang is resistant to death, her man does not have the courage to find a butcher theory, so he often beats and scolds Erniang"
"Later, Erniang's man died, Erniang suspected that the butcher did it, so she went to sue the official, but the official yamen was open, and there was no money to come in, Erniang was weak and had no money, so the official wanted Erniang to exchange her body for Erniang and was unwilling."
"But after the butcher heard about this, he often looked for opportunities to forcibly occupy Erniang, but Erniang failed to sue the official, but instead led the wolf into the house, and even the officials wanted to take advantage of Erniang."
In order to avoid these two beasts, Erniang fled to the mountains, saying that she had become a monk in a nunnery or something. ”
"But I didn't expect that half a year later, the butcher and the official died, and the government thought that Erniang was retaliating for the killing, so they arrested Erniang, sentenced him to exile, and exiled him to our post station as a slave, and he did it for three years."
"Somehow, it seems that all the men in the world want to bully Erniang, after coming to the post house, even those men who serve as conscripts also bully Erniang one by one, this batch is gone, and the next batch will continue to bully"
Ginkgo is also a girl with a broken mouth, and when she talks about gossip, she comes to the spirit, and unconsciously talks about Sun Erniang's past, and only after she finishes talking does she realize that she has gone too far.
Song Fengya didn't know when she was listening from behind, and at this time, she was also upset for Sun Erniang and said: "These men are simply inferior to beasts, if it were me, I would have killed them a long time ago!"
When Yang Jing heard this, he threw a meaningful look at Song Fengya, and then turned to the strings of bacon, and said inexplicably: "In this world, there is a punishment that is more torturous than death."
Song Fengya was slightly stunned, looked at the bacon again, and exclaimed in disbelief: "You mean it's impossible!"
Song Fengya looked at those bacon again, she was already a little disgusted!
And at this time, the catcher outside reported: "My lord, Mother Wu brought it." ”
Yang Jing walked out of the kitchen and saw that Mother Wu was standing trembling with her hands down, so she walked over and asked straight to the point: "Mother Wu, listen to Ginkgo biloba, do you know Sun Erniang's past experience?"
Mother Wu raised her head suddenly, looked at Ginkgo, her face changed, she hurriedly knelt down, and bowed to Yang Jing: "Master Guan, the old body doesn't know anything!"
Yang Jing let Mother Wu help her up, and said to her with a pleasant face: "Mother Wu, don't be nervous, I just have a small question for you, it's not a big deal." ”
When Mother Wu heard this, her mood stabilized a little, and she heard Yang Jing ask: "I heard that before Sun Erniang was exiled here, she used to be a monk in a nunnery, Mother Wu, do you know what kind of place that nunnery is?"
Mother Wu didn't dare to straighten her waist, bowed her head, seemed to be recalling, and only shook her head after a while: "The old body really can't remember, the young master hasn't grown up in the early years, and the old body has been serving the master, and I overheard the old man talk about it, but now he is old and confused."
Yang Jing couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he still didn't give up, and tentatively induced Wu Ma to say: "Think about it again, aren't all the nunnery in this world the same, it's nothing more than burning incense, worshipping Guanyin Bodhisattva and the like."
Yang Jing's guidance really worked, and Wu Ma patted her head and said to Yang Jing in surprise: "My lord, the old body remembers! What is the name of Sun Erniang's monk's nunnery, the old body can't remember, but I heard the old man say that she is not worshipping Guanyin Bodhisattva, but what is the Holy Mother."
"Our Lady of the White Bull?"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, you are really knowledgeable, you are called Our Lady of the White Bull!"
Yang Jing couldn't help but get excited, but after a while, he patted his head and exclaimed, "Oops, let's go!"
Yang Jing put the porridge bowl on the table and rushed out quickly, because Zong Yun had already gone out to pursue Yuan Weidao, and the fast catchers were also busy, Yang Jing had no choice but to wave to the king and said, "Follow me!"
Wang Buliu had just finished bandaging Lin Xiaoer's wounds, and when he saw that Yang Jing was in a hurry, he followed.
Yang Jing took them to the building where Sun Erniang was, and stepped on the creaking bamboo stairs to the second floor, but found that the door was wide open, the room was pitch black, and even the fire was extinguished!
Yang Jing picked up the lantern and shone it inside, but he saw that there were blood stains all around, and the catcher fell to the ground, with a big pool of blood under him!
Yang Jing turned the catcher over, and a strong smell of blood came to his nose, his face was blurred, and his chest was also scratched, all of which were the kind of paw prints on Lu Yueniang's arm!
"It's a mandrill!"
Yang Jing stood up suddenly, walked out of the railing on the second floor, and glanced around, this dark night is vast, it is a rainy day, Sun Erniang has disappeared, and all the people have been sent out to do things, and now they want to search the mountains to hunt down, but it is only in vain, so they have to leave a few with Wang, carry the body of the fast arrest downstairs, and return to the kitchen.
Everyone saw that another catcher had died, and it was killed by a mandrill, and they were frightened one by one.
At this time, Zong Yun and Wang Dou finally arrested Yuan Weidao and his wife!
Yuan Weidao was already old after all, and even knocking Lin Xiaoer unconscious was the hand of the concubine Yujiao, and they couldn't escape far at all.
Seeing the bowl of black rice porridge on the table, Yuan Weidao finally lowered his head.
Zong Yun and Wang Dou saw the corpse that was caught quickly, and only after asking did they know that Sun Erniang had already escaped!
Yang Jing walked up to Yuan Weidao, forced his eyes, and said coldly to him: "I already know the matter, but I want to give you a chance now, you take the initiative to tell the matter, and I will make your son's life easier in the future." ”
Yuan Weidao raised his head suddenly, looked at Yuan Shuxiang, but lowered his head silently.
Yang Jing sneered noncommittally, and then said to him: "You come and take a look at this, this brother was killed by the mandrill just now, his left chest is not a big hole, if my reasoning is correct, that night, after the mandrill killed, you dug out the hearts of Cao Sheng and Li Mu!"
"You used your heart as medicine for your son to cure lung disease! You also ruined the scene! Right and no!"
As soon as Yang Jing said this, Yuan Shuxiang immediately grabbed his throat and fell to his knees, wanting to vomit, but he couldn't even vomit the sour water!
His eyes were red, he crawled over, grabbed Yuan Weidao's collar, and roared at his father: "I am your own son! You actually gave me this! You are still not human!"
Yuan Weidao raised his head suddenly, his face was hideous, his eyes were full of ruthlessness, it was hard to imagine that the old Yicheng, who was gentle and elegant on weekdays, also had such a terrifying side!
He slapped Yuan Shuxiang in the face, and then yelled at his son: "Rebel son! The old man has tried his best to find you a medicine to cure the disease, and you don't know how to be grateful, but you dare to go against the grain, have you read all these books in vain!"
Yuan Shuxiang was also stunned, covering his face, as if he no longer knew his father.
Yuan Weidao cherished this lone seedling son the most, and regretted it after making a move, so he could only sigh heavily: "What kind of sin did I Yuan Weidao create!"
He grabbed his messy hair, lay on the ground and wept bitterly, and after a long time, he slowly straightened up and finally began to confess.
