Chapter Twenty-Three: Look Me Straight

Yan Wusheng took out a portrait from his arms, unfolded it, and handed it to Meng Xiaowan.

"Does the girl know the person in the painting? His name is Huang Wenda, and he is the head catcher of Tao Town. ”

This painting is quite similar, at least Meng Xiaowan can see at a glance that the guy on it is indeed Huang Wenda.

"Girl, your eyes have betrayed you." Yan said silently. "If you have any news about Huang Wenda, please let me know. I have pursued this case for ......"

"Five years?" Meng Xiaowan asked.

Yan shook his head silently: "No, I just took over this case, and I have always been in charge of the county government of Tao Town." ”

"What I want to say is that for the sake of this case, I have put down all the business on my hands!"

"What does that have to do with me? It's just your own work. Meng Xiaowan said angrily. I've seen Huang Wenda, but I've seen more people, is it because they have accidents, do they all have something to do with me? ”

"Sir, I'm a good citizen, okay?"

Yan Wusheng hurriedly waved his hand: "The girl misunderstood, I didn't mean that, it's just a necessary means to investigate the case." Also, I don't quite understand what the girl's last sentence meant. ”

"I'm just acting impartially, what he did before his disappearance and who he met are the focus of my investigation."

Meng Xiaowan secretly thought to herself, if she didn't cooperate, Yan Wusheng estimated that she would go to Lengjiagou to disturb her parents.

And Huang Wenda was only possessed by the black devil and did not die, so why should he be afraid of this head catcher?

"Okay, I'll try to cooperate, you say first, what do you know?" Meng Xiaowan asked.

Yan Wusheng smiled: "After a few days of investigation, I already know that the girl is a cultivator, right?" ”

"Within a hundred miles of this Tao Town, no, even within a thousand miles, I'm afraid there is only one girl who is a cultivator."

"Do you want to say that because I'm cultivating and it's easy to kill him, I'm the most suspicious?" Meng Xiaowan interrupted him and asked.

Yan silently snorted: "Judging from the current investigation, this is the case for the time being. ”

"Huang Wenda is a senior head catcher in Tao Town, and he is very skilled, as far as I know, there is no opponent for the third class of Yacha within a radius of 100 miles."

"Of course, it's not that the girl can win, it must have something to do with it, it's just a lot of coincidences, and I have to care."

Meng Xiaowan clasped her hands: "What the hell have you investigated, let's get straight to the point!" ”

"Okay." Yan said silently, took out a yellowed piece of paper from his arms, and pushed it to Meng Xiaowan from the table. "Girl, please take a look, this is an IOU issued by Kejia Town, which is almost two hundred miles away, and Kejia Qianzhuang."

"It stated that the silver taels lent were 6,000 taels, and they were lent to Huang Weixian and Meng Weng, and there were two signatures and pledges."

"However, there is another line of explanatory text at the end, which should be added later, stating that Kejia Qianzhuang voluntarily gave up the loan."

Meng Xiaowan picked it up and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, it was the seal of the Kejia Qianzhuang, the handwriting was a little blurry, but it was still legible.

In fact, she had seen this IOU, and Huang Wenda took it out that night, but Meng Xiaowan didn't look at it carefully.

There is indeed a signature between Meng Weng and Huang Weixian!

"Huang Weixian is Huang Wenda's father." Yan silently continued. "Back then, I borrowed money from Kejia Qian Zhuang in Kejia Town, with Meng Weng, that is, Ling Zun, to do a silk business."

"However, after my in-depth understanding, I found that the business did not work out, because Ling Zun Mengweng's father, that is, your grandfather, used to work as a blacksmith."

"At that time, it was a war, and the imperial court lacked weapons, so I found Meng Weng and wanted him to forge weapons, of course, the remuneration given by the imperial court was bound to be much more lucrative than doing silk business."

"I think you should know the rest of the story!"

Meng Xiaowan raised her head: "I don't know, what do I know?" Where do I know? ”

"Okay, since Miss Meng doesn't know, then forgive me for offending." Yan silently continued. "In order to get this opportunity from the imperial court, Meng Weng gave up the silk business."

"But he didn't bring Huang Weixian with him, and even took away the six thousand taels of silver borrowed from Kejia Qian Zhuang as the principal, which directly led to the collapse of Huang Weixian's life."

"He has two sons, the eldest son is Huang Wenda, and the younger son Huang Yaowu, at that time, Huang Weixian was cornered by the people of Kejia Qianzhuang, and he almost despaired."

Speaking of this, Yan silently propped up the table with both hands and slowly got up.

"Can you imagine the feeling of a penniless father with two children?"

"Fortunately, Huang Weixian was the only talent in the village at that time, and he went to the test for fame for the first time, although he didn't get in, but he helped a general."

"It was also because of his good deeds back then, the curtain was hung in the sky, and the general found Huang Weixian, who was already seriously ill."

"The general personally disabled the people who came to ask for the account, and took the initiative to help Huang Weixian settle the two children."

"Huang Wenda was not convinced, he wanted to inherit his father's will and do business, the general gave him a sum of silver taels, Huang Yaowu was impressed by the general's courage and decided to follow the general in the army!"

After arranging the two children, Huang Wei committed suicide in public. Kejia Qianzhuang was afraid of the general's power, so he did a favor and wrote off the account. ”

The more this guy talked, the more excited he became, and he kept getting up and approaching.

Meng Xiaowan had already tried her best to lean back, and if she leaned again, she was about to fall off the stool.

She slammed Yan silently away: "Okay, okay, I know what you said, okay?" Huang Wenda said it when he burned my house! ”

"He just didn't say anything about his brother's military service, you just talk well, don't be like this!"

"Look me in the eye." Yan said silently. "Miss Meng, I know that seventy percent of your house may have been burned down by Huang Wenda."

"But if it were you, you'd want revenge, wouldn't you? Meng Weng's approach is unkind and unjust, and the beast is not as good as ......"

"Enough!" Meng Xiaowan said sharply. "The surname Yan, you listen to me! I didn't kill Huang Wenda! ”

"One night five years ago, he suddenly brought someone to my house, snatched my father's silver ticket, and set fire to my house! I didn't kill him on the spot because he told the truth about the year. ”

"What I told him at the time, I'm not afraid to tell you now!"

Yan shook his head silently: "I understand, you sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes are happy to enmity and hatred, but he is a member of the imperial court, so I can't help you ......."

"Look at me! Cub Seed! Meng Xiaowan said angrily.

Yan Wusheng was frightened by her momentum for a moment, and looked at Meng Xiaowan's eyes.

"Don't you really want to know the truth? I'm telling you! Meng Xiaowan said. Huang Wenda snatched my father's savings, set fire to almost burned my father and mother, and Fu Bo. ”

"I just taught him a lesson, and I'm already very polite!"

"Don't use your laws to preach to me, in terms of right and wrong, no matter what my father did wrong back then, he is a catcher, he can arrest my father and punish him with the law!"

"Instead of abusing lynching like this, and, taking 10,000 steps back and saying, even if he is really revengeful, then what is wrong with my mother? What's wrong with Fauber? What did the chef I hired do wrong? ”

"Why did he burn it indiscriminately?"

Yan Wusheng was a little unreasonable, stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Then, what happened later?" ”

"I beat him up and he left." Meng Xiaowan replied. "He snatched my father's five thousand taels of silver tickets, and there are still some shorts! I promised to pay him back the 1,000 taels I owed him, but that guy didn't know where to run to provoke the demons. ”

"On the morning of the third day, he burned down three of my Meng family's money houses and almost killed me! Fortunately, the two masters of Changmingmen rescued each other and survived. It's just that no one can do anything about the demon on him, so he let him escape like that, and he has never seen him again. ”

"What do you mean...... It's true? Yan asked silently.

Bang!

Meng Xiaowan slapped on the table: "Although I, Meng Xiaowan, am a daughter, I ask myself how to behave and behave, and I will not lose to you guys who claim to be righteous!" ”

"What I did, I dare admit! Five years ago, did I burn the Meng family's money village myself and blame him? ”

"But the demon ......," Yan Wusheng looked incredulous.

Meng Xiaowan told him: "It's not possessed by the demon clan, why does he have the guts to burn my money bank?" I'm going to hit him, and he doesn't have any room to fight back! ”

"My father did something wrong back then, as long as you use the right means, I believe that his old man will not be afraid to face punishment! I, Meng Xiaowan, are the same, if Yan Da Zhutou thinks that I beat him five years ago, and I am the one who moved the court, I should die, then you can come! ”

Yan Wusheng was completely dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to continue.

After immersing himself for a while, he just got up and took the IOU in Meng Xiaowan's hand back and put it away.

"Miss Meng, I'm sorry, I will investigate this matter in detail, as long as what you say is true, I will never wronged any good person."

As he spoke, he turned around and left, but when he reached the staircase, he suddenly stopped, looked up at Meng Xiaowan and said, "Also, from the perspective of the law, Meng Weng is not wrong. ”

"The silver was borrowed by the two of them, the silk business did not start, and Meng Weng left a letter when he left stating that he would come back to pay the debt, so there was no fraud."

"It's just immoral, Huang Wenda's behavior has violated the law, Miss Meng, you are just protecting your family, and that's right. As long as Huang Wenda is found, everything can be solved. ”

"Take care ......"

Since he turned to leave, Meng Xiaowan has not replied a word.

She just thought, this matter is not so simple, Huang Wenda is the best to live, if he dies, I am afraid that Yan Wusheng will give up, and his younger brother, who is a general, will not give up.

There are some things that have to be done quickly, otherwise when things are all brought together, I am afraid there will be no more opportunities.

Two hundred miles away, Kejia Town, Xiaotang Mountain, there is a hole in the cliff halfway up the mountain.

Locals call this cave the Devil's Cave because no one dared to approach it for decades because of the terrifying screams that came from the cave for many years.

"Ahh A woman in white flew here, and before she could stop, she was suddenly captured by a black gas!
