Wang Mingyuan found that he was walking faster.

The journey from Zhangjiaao to Chenjiagou for nearly ten miles took only about 40 minutes.

When I arrived at the threshing floor, I saw that there were already a lot of people gathered there.

The sky is just a slight dew in the morning, and it is still early before the time to go to work, what is this doing?

Wang Mingyuan stepped forward to take a look, only to find that the storage room next to the threshing floor had become a ruin, the entire roof had collapsed, the beams of the house were obliquely against the earthen wall, and the rafters were horizontally and vertically supported

A large group of men and women stood around with a grim face, and several others were carrying buckets and scooping water to extinguish the sparks they saw.

This is...... It's on fire!

Wang Mingyuan stepped forward and saw that Chen Youdong was also there, so he casually asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"In the middle of last night, I was sleeping soundly, when I suddenly heard the sound of a gong and was awakened, someone shouted that there was a fire, and when I got up, I saw that the whole storage room was on fire, and it was the grass stack next to the storage room that started the fire first, and the fire was so great that it burned the storage room.

The big guy worked all night, and he put out the fire, but there was nothing left.

The storage room is full of this year's rice seeds, corn seeds, and artichoke seeds, which are all wasted and will be planted soon...... The captain and the others are investigating what happened, trying to find out who set the fire, but there are so many people, how to investigate, the fire in the middle of the night ......"

Chen Youdong wiped the sweat from his forehead, most of his clothes were splashed with water, and the whole person looked tired: "Hey, why are you here?" ”

Wang Mingyuan raised the backpack he was carrying: "I'll come to talk to you about something, and by the way, bring some pagoda candy to the children, many children have roundworms in their stomachs, and they have to be treated...... Help, get a couple of other militia members over. ”

"Good!" Chen Youdong turned around and burrowed into the crowd.

Wang Mingyuan retreated to the big persimmon tree next to the threshing floor and waited.

After a short time, several militiamen gathered towards the persimmon tree one after another.

The last to come was the militia captain Chen Jiawang, followed by the imposing Chen Jinxue.

What Wang Mingyuan didn't expect was that as soon as Chen Jinxue came closer, he immediately shouted: "Arrest this kid for me, this fire, nine times out of ten, he put it!" ”

"What? I set the fire? ”

Hell this is?

Wang Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately became angry when he reacted: "Captain, you can eat whatever you want, you can't talk nonsense, you just come with your mouth, what kind of fart are you putting in the sky?" If you come up, you're going to arrest me...... Everything, pay attention to real evidence, you said that I set this fire, come up with evidence. ”

"You ......"

Chen Jinxue pointed at Wang Mingyuan, so angry that his face and beard trembled: "If you want evidence, then I'll tell you." ”

Wang Mingyuan sneered: "I'm listening, I want to see what your evidence is." ”

"I reported you a few days ago, and yesterday the working group came down to investigate, although you passed the test in a fool's way, but you can't help but hold a grudge against me, otherwise, this fire can't be sooner or later, why did it catch fire last night? Do you dare to say that you are not taking revenge on me?

Also, you don't usually see a single figure, why did you appear on the team at this time? You're waiting to see if your revenge is complete, aren't you?

You think that if you pretend to come and deliver some medicine to the children and pretend to be a good person, no one will suspect you, right? ”

Chen Jinxue blew his beard and glared at him, and the villagers who gathered around him were stunned.

After all, he is the captain of the production team, and what he says still carries a lot of weight.

Many people became skeptical.

"That's really possible!"

"It's very likely."

"It's a little weird!"

One by one, they whispered below.

Even several militiamen looked at Wang Mingyuan one after another, two of them even moved, blocking the relatively large gap on Wang Mingyuan's side, and put on a posture of encirclement, and several young and strong people who were more impulsive also walked out and rubbed their fists.

"Nima!"

Wang Mingyuan scolded secretly, and then laughed: "The working group has already said, I didn't speculate, and now you still have the face to say that I was fooled?" ”

"Hmph...... Don't think I can't see it, what director is covering for you......" Chen Jinxue snorted coldly: "People came to find Han Xiaoling before, I have seen it, but I didn't say that it was looking for you." ”

"According to what you say, there are more people covering for me, the old and young in Zhangjiaao are covering for me, the working group of the Mangxian Crackdown Office is covering for me, Secretary Ma in the county, and Director Zhou of the Mingcheng Agricultural Reclamation Bureau are all covering for me. Am I going to invite them all over and tell you how they helped me cover up? ”

"Are you not trying to make me a speculator? Didn't I tell you about catching locusts, I miss everyone's kindness, and I want to find a way for everyone to make money, so that they can make some money to subsidize their families, am I wrong? ”

Wang Mingyuan said angrily: "That's right, even if I am an Annan spy, you can put peace on me, should I bring Wu Chaoyang Wu Instructor of the army and Minister Long Yao Wulong of the Armed Forces Department to you and talk to you about it?" Do you think they're blind or stupid? ”

A bunch of characters were pointed out at once, and the villagers couldn't recognize them all, but they knew that they were all characters with backgrounds.

All at once they became confused.

When several militiamen heard the names of Wu Chaoyang and Long Yaowu, they also looked at each other.

They didn't expect that there would be these scenes when they investigated Wang Mingyuan yesterday.

No one wants to believe that Wang Mingyuan is an Annan spy, and the eyes that look at Chen Jinxue one by one are full of doubts.

"Do you know that just because you say that I am an Annan spy, you are forcing me to die, and now you are saying that I lit the fire, what is your purpose in planting such a false accusation?"

Wang Mingyuan became more and more angry the more he said: "Today Han Xiaoling returned to the city, I just got up early to see her off, thinking that I could come to the team before you go to work, everyone is here, send some roundworm medicine to the children, and by the way, find a few militiamen who help catch locusts to say something, and if something happens here, you will arrange it for me."

It really gives you face, doesn't it?

The haystacks caught fire, burned the storage room, burned the seeds, and this was obviously caused by your own improper supervision, who would pile something as easily as a haystack into the storage room next to it? Now that the weather is dry and the wind is not light, don't you know that a single spark can start a fire?

Obviously, it is very likely that it is just an accidental fire, and I want to make the chickens and dogs jump, and I have the energy to be suspicious, but I don't want to think about what the problem is, and I don't want to quickly solve the grain problem without affecting production, you can really do it.

Anything dirty that is not there, all of them are pushed on me, you are simply thinking about taking me to blame, and you are embarrassed to say that I will retaliate.

I still miss the kindness of you settling down for me, giving me a set of clothes and demarcating my own land, but I didn't expect you to be such a vicious person. You think I'm an outsider, so I'm a bully, right?

Is there a captain like you? Timid and afraid, without a little responsibility, are you worthy of being the captain? ”

Wang Mingyuan's stomach was on fire, he had been holding it back yesterday, and now he poured it out all of a sudden, and his mouth was dry.

He stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, looked at the few militiamen and young men around him, and stretched out his hands in front of him: "Aren't you trying to arrest me?" Hurry up and tie it up, yes, tie up the captain too, because I suspect very much that he deliberately lit a fire in order to frame me. Let's go to the commune to theorize today, the commune can't solve it, go to the county to theorize, it's really not good, let's go to Mingcheng...... I want to see what your intentions are. ”

Small kiosk

, blame, who wouldn't?

After a lot of anger, the whole threshing floor suddenly became silent.

Everyone's eyes were on Chen Jinxue. Several militiamen and young men did not dare to step forward to tie up Wang Mingyuan, but quietly retreated away.

Chen Jinxue's face became ugly, and a pair of cloudy eyes stared at Wang Mingyuan, but he couldn't say a word.

"Not tying up, right? Then I'll go to the commune myself......"

Wang Mingyuan turned around and walked towards the entrance of the village, walked a few steps and stopped. He took out the pagoda candy in his backpack and threw it on the ground, took out a stack of money from his arms, counted four hundred, and threw it on the ground with his backhand, looking at the crowd: "These are the molecular money you made up when I settled down, take it and divide it, I will pay it back for your kindness!" ”

After that...... He took a big stride and walked forward.
