Li Zhensheng asked again, "Are you sure, or someone in the town saw Mrs. Gong lying in the coffin?" Is it possible that she is still alive? ”

Li Fu'er and his wife both looked up in surprise and asked, "How did the owner know that Mrs. Gong was not dead?" ”

"What did you find?" Li Zhensheng did not answer the rhetorical question.

Li Fu's daughter-in-law hurriedly said: "Yesterday afternoon, we went out for a walk, bought some candy, and sprinkled it on the children nearby, thinking about a few words.

"The children all said that there were unlucky ghosts in the Gong family, and the family was all dead, and then we went to the inn and were stopped by a naughty boy, he said that the grandmother of the lock was not dead, he saw it!"

Li Fu's daughter-in-law was afraid that the owner would not understand, so she explained, "The lock is the name of the boy of the Gong family, and they always play together on weekdays." The child said that he went to the back mountain to collect firewood, went the wrong way, and met Grandma Suozi in a wooden house, and Grandma Suozi asked him for something to eat.

He was frightened and ran home to talk about it, but the family didn't believe it, saying that he had seen a ghost, and found someone to burn the talisman paper for him, forcing him to drink talisman water, and never let him go up the mountain again!

"The two of us thought that this kid should be telling the truth, and wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, but we were afraid of attracting attention, so we thought about going back to report the news and asking the owner to find someone to go up the mountain to have a look."

Li Zhensheng knew it in his heart, so he instructed them, "Don't leave today, go outside to inquire, there is a ruffian surnamed Liu here, and he usually likes to pull people to the new capital to go to the casino."

"This ruffian's cousin is the manager of the casino, remember to ask what the ruffian's cousin is and what the name of the casino is. I'll take someone to the mountains first, and I'll let someone come back and tell you anything at any time. ”

"Yes, host." Li Fu and his wife hurriedly responded.

Soon, they pretended not to know each other and had breakfast separately, and then Li Zhensheng took his soldiers around the road and climbed up from the other side of the North Mountain.

At this time, the weather is cold, the snow on the road is difficult, and the mountain climbing is even more stumbling.

Fortunately, the firewood for the winter has been stored, the North Mountain is not high, and there are no wild animals to hunt.

So, the mountains are quiet, and the only cabin for temporary accommodation is not hard to find.

The soldiers were cautious, leaving two to protect Li Zhensheng, and the other four slowly approached the wooden house, hid behind the tree and threw a stone at the wooden door, but there was no movement in the house at all.

One of the soldiers leaned over, coughed, but still did not respond, so he leaned on the crack of the door and looked.

But when he turned back again, his face changed and he quickly retreated.

When Li Zhensheng saw it from afar, he walked over and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

The soldier took a deep breath and responded, "Sir, there is indeed only one old lady in the house, but she is lying at the door and watching...... It seems that there is no gas. ”

He's dead?

Li Zhensheng hurriedly led people over, and the door of the wooden house was locked, but as soon as the soldiers took daggers, the copper lock was opened, and it was not damaged at all.

The two wooden doors were pushed open from the inside out, and without the support of the brass lock, the wooden doors suddenly opened wide, and an old lady fell out.

Dressed in a blue brocade jacket, already dirty, his hair was scattered, lying on the threshold without a sound.

A pro-soldier raised his foot and turned the old lady over, and everyone gasped.

This can no longer be called a human, it is simply a skinny and bony human-shaped firewood stick.

I don't know how many days I was hungry, the old lady's face was gray, her eye sockets were deep, and the skin on her neck was sticking to the bones, as if her head was about to fall off at the slightest touch.

Li Zhensheng silently calculated the date in his heart, if it was according to Gong Yunshu and the inn boy, the Gong family held a funeral half a month ago.

In other words, this old lady was smuggled out and hidden here with her nephew.

I'm afraid that since that day, no one has brought her food, and no one remembers to let her go free!

Self-inflicted, stupid!

Li Zhensheng really didn't know what to say, laughing at a dead man, he couldn't do this.

But these eight words have been echoing in his head!

This old lady wanted to use her nephew to force her granddaughter to do internal response, enter the door of the Li family, pick up the Li family, and then kick the nephew.

But why didn't she think of the fate of seeking skin with the tiger?

After people used her, they naturally didn't have the heart to coax her.

As a result, at a young age, he was considered to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime, and finally starved to death here!

"Let's see what she has on her as a token, take one and send it back to Broken Gold Beach to ask, confirm the identity of this old lady, go and come back quickly!" Li Zhensheng waved his hand and said.

The soldiers hurried up, and soon a silver bracelet on the old lady's wrist was taken off.

Two of his own soldiers rode back to the Broken Gold Beach, closed the door twice, restored the wooden house to its original state, and guarded it.

The last two followed Li Zhensheng back to the inn, and Li Fuer and his wife had already finished inquiring about the news.

"The owner, the ruffian surnamed Liu, is very unpopular here, I heard that many people have been ruined by him, and his cousin has never been to the town, but it is not difficult to inquire.

"His brother's surname is Bao, and the casino is called Four Seasons Ruyi Casino, in the north of the new capital, which is not big, but there are a lot of people."

Li Zhensheng nodded, and his heart became more and more determined.

Because the place where Zhang Jin lured the villagers to gamble was the Four Seasons Ruyi Gambling House, the casino manager that Zhang Jin had close ties with was indeed surnamed Bao.

But since Wei Dajun was injured, the veteran of the Hou Mansion has been staring at the steward surnamed Bao, but he has not seen any abnormal actions.

Originally, I thought it was because the family was too careful, but now it seems that people have just changed their strategy and found another way!

If it weren't for the vigilance of their family, if it weren't for the Gong family's sisters and brothers who confessed early in their conscience, maybe these people's calculations would have really succeeded.

That Gong Yunshu doesn't look bad, he is also literate and hyphenated, and then he has the relationship of saving his life, maybe he will be in Broken Gold Beach for a few months, and he can really win the favor of the villagers and make the second child tempted.

After all, the biggest regret of the second child's life is that he didn't study and married a stupid daughter-in-law......

This Gong Yunshu can satisfy all the beautiful imagination of the second child for his partner!

Li Zhensheng's brows furrowed more and more.

I have to say that the calculating person behind this has really put a lot of effort into studying the Li family very thoroughly.

It's just that the only thing that the people behind them didn't calculate was that their brother was born in a farming family, and he grew very slowly but kept growing.

In the past few years, life and death have been several times, struggling to survive, which has made them unusually united, and their hearts of protection for the family are also unusually firm.

For everything they have now, they are like squirrels holding fruit, and with each bite, they have to crane their necks to look around.

They have no ambition and no jealousy of others, but they will never allow anyone to steal their "fruit"!

So, there is a stir that others don't think is going to happen, but they are already holding long knives in their hands, ready to fight against the invading enemy!

Not to mention how Li Zhensheng was in Aoki Town, but only to say that when the two pro-soldiers hurried back to Broken Gold Beach, it was already afternoon.

Jiayin was in the space last night, and he harmed a lot of potatoes, and wanted to toss some starch for the old lady.

Although she succeeded, she was also very tired.

After eating at this time, she lay on the big kang and hugged her beloved cloth tiger to make up for sleep.

Mrs. Li sat on the side, guarding her granddaughter and doing needlework......
