Chapter XXVIII

The physical evidence is right in front of you.

There are no witnesses.

But in their eyes, it seems that I am the only one who has the motive to kill, so to speak, at this time, I am at a loss.

In fact, it is.

The moment the sticker was taken out.

My charges have been completely confirmed.

The red city god sticker is only available to me.

Who else could it be if it wasn't me?

I fell silent.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the old drunkard sighed.

"Why bother?"

I didn't know what he meant, I just laughed to myself.

"Since you all think that I killed people, what do you want to do? Kill me too? ”

"It's too cheap to kill you!" Another blind old man said coldly, "Aren't you looking for the Zhenling coffin?" ”

"Then I will sacrifice with your life."

"Let the coffin of the town spirit be born!"

"After all, he is the keeper of Niang'er Village!" Only then did Uncle Ghost speak: "And although there is a city god sticker, it doesn't mean that he is a murderer." ”

"I think ......"

"Ghost boy!" Another blind old man interrupted Uncle Ghost's words.

"What about the village keepers in Niang'er Village?"

"There wasn't one of them back then, but they were also from Niang'er Village."

"And then?"

"How many of us have been killed?"

Uncle Ghost's face became a little ugly, "That incident has nothing to do with him." ”

"It doesn't matter, you know it in your heart!"

Another cold snort came.

"Anyway, I agree to sacrifice him."

"Sacrificing the lives of a village guard, maybe it can really lead to the coffin of the town spirit."

Another man echoed.

Hearing this, I completely understood.

It doesn't matter if I killed the old blind man or not.

They're just trying to find a reason.

Find a reason to sacrifice me as a way to find the coffin, as for the rest, it doesn't matter to them, in this case, even if I have evidence that I didn't kill the person.

I couldn't help but smile wryly and simply closed my eyes.

I just wondered a little in my heart.

Why do they think that sacrificing a village keeper will make it possible to find the coffin of the town spirit?

How did you determine that I was the keeper of Niang'er Village?

And where did the old drunkard get the Chenghuang sticker that he took out?

Or is it ......

Is it a frame-up?

And the only person in the entire Fengling Village who is likely to know my identity should be Uncle Ghost, and the only one who can have the opportunity to take the Chenghuang sticker from me is Uncle Ghost.

I subconsciously looked at Uncle Ghost.

Uncle Ghost was already silent, the corners of his eyes were red, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

seemed to feel that I was looking at him, and Uncle Ghost also looked at me, with a little more apology in his eyes.

It was like telling me that there was nothing he could do about it.

At this time, the old drunkard spoke again: "What to do with you." ”

"It's up to everyone."

"Sacrifice!"

"Sacrifice it."

"I agree!"

As the old drunkard's voice fell, the twenty or so blind men unanimously agreed, and they wanted to kill me immediately.

I only felt bitter in my heart, but I couldn't do anything to be tied up, and it was impossible to escape.

Seeing that everyone agreed to sacrifice me, the old drunkard didn't say anything more, and although Uncle Ghost always looked at me, he also chose to be silent.

Soon the remaining two able-bodied old men, who were not blind, lifted me up one after the other, all the way to the outside of the ancestral hall of Fengling Village, and then stopped, and put me on the lid of a coffin.

And the twenty or so blind old men directly surrounded me.

Although they were blind, they didn't seem to be blind, and they were able to aim their crazy eyes at me precisely, and I could even feel their excitement.

It's as if what they're going to do next isn't killing.

I thought about the many possibilities of death that came out of this trip.

But I never thought that this would happen.

In a short time they placed a pile of firewood around the black and white coffin beneath me, and the old drunkard came to me with a torch.

He looked at me.

I looked at him too.

After a while, he slowly spoke, "You still have a chance." ”

"As long as you can be sure that you didn't kill people."

"For the sake of you being from Niang'er Village, and for the sake of the village keeper of Niang'er Village, I can let you go."

"Otherwise."

"I can only use your life to bury the old blind man."

"If I killed someone, how could I let you catch them so easily?" I asked rhetorically.

At this moment, I don't have any hope.

It's just that I'm still a little unwilling.

The old drunkard was silent for a moment before nodding.

"I know."

"But ......"

"It's just that, they won't agree."

When I heard this, I immediately understood, if nothing else, the old drunkard also knew that I didn't kill people, but just like what he meant, this matter was no longer something he could change at this time.

It's those blind old men who are determined to kill me.

Unless I can give them a convincing proof that I didn't kill the man.

But that's not possible.

Other words.

There is only one path in front of me.

That's death!

Thinking of this, I didn't say anything more, but looked around, and I don't know why I suddenly felt a little ridiculous, and I also felt a little sad about these people in front of me.

has already ended up in this situation, and is still thinking about finding the coffin of the town spirit.

I couldn't help but laugh.

I didn't bother to talk nonsense, and I didn't want to think about it anymore, so I just said: "If you want to kill, kill it." ”

The old drunkard was obviously stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting me to be so crisp all of a sudden, and his brows furrowed slightly.

At this moment, I suddenly saw the figure of Uncle Ghost walking quickly.

Because of the fast steps, the steps became limping.

"The coffin is up!"

Uncle Ghost said in a deep voice.

Hearing these three words, the faces of the blind old men who surrounded me changed instantly.

The old drunkard's face was even more difficult to see.

"How is that possible?"

"Isn't the time yet up?"

Uncle Ghost shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it's true." ”

"We can't stay here, or we'll all die."

The old drunkard was silent for a while, and then shouted to those who surrounded me, "All of you enter the ancestral hall!" ”

The old men who had been eager to kill me as soon as they heard this, they instantly became flustered, and the two old men, who were not blind, began to lead them to the ancestral hall.

Soon only me, the old drunkard, and Uncle Ghost were left outside the ancestral hall.

Meanwhile.

The sound of neat and orderly footsteps came slowly along with the sound of crying and wailing.

Getting closer!

When I heard these voices, my heart couldn't help but chuckle.

The old drunkard's face was ugly and a little whiter at the same time.

"What's going on?"

"Listen to this stance."

"Are you all awake?"
