Chapter 147: I see
After the old patriarch of the Hua family was sure that the person could not be saved, he knocked hard, and the crutches on his old face were angry that could not be concealed.
He raised his cane and pointed to Hua Tingjing, who was standing on the side, in a voice that was not angry and arrogant, and said abruptly: "How many of you fished people up?" Can you see anyone nearby? β
He said this with blatant suspicion.
Hua Tingjing was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat, and kept wiping her forehead, "No, when I came over, there was no one nearby." β
The old patriarch's brows furrowed even deeper, his face was calm, and he didn't speak for a while.
The few people present looked at each other and did not dare to speak.
"Woo woo woo ......"
Only Li Shi was still lying on the corpse, whimpering lowly, Xu had been crying for a long time, and Li Shi had no sound, from howling and crying to a low whimpering sound.
The old patriarch frowned when he heard this, and sighed heavily.
"Knock knock."
The crutches knocked on the ground, and in the quiet ancestral hall, the sudden two sounds made people tremble.
Even if the old patriarch is seventy or eighty years old, his momentum is still there, and he is so angry that people dare not speak up.
Hua Tingjing on the side looked at the corner of his eyes several times, his expression trembled, and he seemed to be a little afraid that the old patriarch would be angry with him because of this.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, what's the use of crying, people can't be resurrected after death!"
As soon as the old patriarch's majestic and terrifying voice sounded, the air was silent, and the Li clan's cry also froze.
Standing in the corner, he watched Li wipe his tears with his head buried in his eyes, and turned back slowly with everyone's backs.
A pair of bloodshot and tearful eyes, a little red and swollen from crying, she glared fiercely at the onlookers.
His eyes swept left and right, and his eyes were full of resentment, and he couldn't hide his anger.
She suddenly burst out: "Isn't it you?!" Or are you guys?! You killed my son! He was so dignified, how could he drown like this! He can obviously float, how can he drown! β
The muddy, bloodshot eyes stared abruptly, and the eyeballs protruded out hideously, looking very scary.
The people who were close to the entrance of the ancestral hall were so shocked by her aggressive appearance and piercing questioning voice that they took two steps back.
ββ¦ She's crazy, isn't she? What nonsense are you talking about......"
"Ouch, these eyes are so scary......"
In the crowd that was quiet for a moment, there was a grunt of dissatisfaction, and there was a hint of disgust in the words.
Li's expression was as if he had fallen into a daze, staring at the crowd with blood-red eyes.
The dark, dark, crowded people were reflected in her cloudy eyes.
Her stunned expression was too terrifying, and her mouth kept muttering, fierce curse words:
"It's you...... That's you! You're jealous that he made the move! Pushed him into the well and drowned him! He would float, how could he just drown like this...... You bastards! The heart is so vicious, you can't die well! β¦β¦β
The more Li scolded, the more fierce he became, foul language, pointing at the people present, and coming out word by word.
Because of the presence of the old patriarch, the people standing close to him frowned when they heard it, but it was not good to go up and pull her, they only listened to her scolding and did not say a word.
On the other hand, the old patriarch standing on the side, holding the cane, pinched it tighter and tighter, and the wrinkled old face was tightly twisted together, and his face sank visibly to the naked eye.
"Boom!"
"Are you all dead! She's squirting feces like this, why don't you stop her mouth for me! β
The old patriarch struck his cane and roared angrily.
A few men standing on the side immediately rushed up, one by one, and pressed Li Shi hard.
"Ouch! What are you doing?! Let me go! Let go of my ......"
Li, who was pressed to the ground, struggled wildly, his old face flushed, and his dark eyes stared up at the group.
Standing in the corner, Hua Shi, who had no sense of existence at all, watched the old patriarch of the Hua family come, and before he could figure out the situation, he saw that the Li family scolded twice, and was pressed to the ground by the two big men.
This scene happened so suddenly that Hua Shi didn't react a little......
Hua Tingjing on the side glanced at her, and the hand hanging on the side was facing her direction, tilting upward.
Hua Shi blinked, understanding Hua Tingjing's anxious eyes, but stood still.
Li is obviously out of control now, and she scolded a group of melon-eating people, she went up to stop her now, and Li could slap her twice with her backhand......
After the old patriarch saw that the Li clan was pressed, his face softened: "Okay, take me to the wellhead to have a look." β
Looking at the old patriarch's face, I don't really believe that a good person is gone.
Soon, the crowd dispersed, Hua Tingjing led the way in front, and the old patriarch was supported and followed.
The onlookers also followed in large groups, and the outermost people, standing together in twos and threes, did not hear clearly or see what was going on, but saw a large number of people and went into the grove next to the ancestral hall.
Hua Shi also followed the crowd, watching silently, and never made a sound.
On the left side of the ancestral hall, bypassing a small woods, you soon saw a boxy well.
Even if you stand from a distance, you can see that the water has not overflowed the mouth of the well, but it is about a depth of more than a meter, and then there is black water from the well.
At the top of the well water, there is a fine layer of snow floating, and there are traces of salvage of the broken snow, and the snow that was originally neat on the water surface has been stirred up into a mess.
The surroundings of the square well are covered with messy footprints, which are obviously found by people, and the footprints left by the people during the salvage are all footprints, two or three meters away.
The old patriarch was helped to walk such a distance, and when he arrived, he gasped for breath.
After a while, he panted evenly, and looking at the messy footprints everywhere, the old patriarch's expression suddenly sank again.
Angry, he said, "What's the matter with you? How come it's all footprints here?! β
Hua Tingjing glanced at the old patriarch with some trepidation, pursed his lips and said, "Just, when fishing for people, it is inevitable that you will fall......"
The snow is so deep, how can it not leave footprints......
The old patriarch exhaled angrily, glared at Hua Tingjing, and was helped by others to walk around the square well.
When the flowers in the crowd were there, they couldn't help but look around, trying to find suspicious traces around them.
It's a pity that the scene was destroyed too completely, like in the first scene of destruction, it is too difficult to find any suspicious traces.
She looked around for a few moments, but couldn't notice anything wrong.
Except for the footprints left by someone in the snow, the wellhead of the square well was also empty, and there was nothing, let alone any obvious traces......
No, the edge of the wellhead is covered with green moss and broken snow, and if you accidentally fall into it, you will fall into it.
Human instinct will drive him, grasp the edge of the well, and desperately struggle upward.
But in addition to the traces left by the salvage at the wellhead, there are no traces of hand grasping......
When Hua Shi frowned, the old patriarch had already circled around the four circles twice, and found no traces worth noting, and the old patriarch's expression changed from cautious to disappointed sighs.
"It's okay, it's all gone, you two carry the people from the ancestral hall back to his house, don't put them in the ancestral hall."
The old patriarch waved his hand and said to the person standing on the side, at this time, after checking it, it seemed that no trace was found, and his expression was obviously giving up.
No suspicious traces were found, and no one witnessed the process of falling into the water, only a body was found in a hurry, and there was no way to know, so I could only regard it as an accident......
A good man, that's it...... In less than a day, he drowned like this, and it's hard not to think about it.
When the old patriarch heard that the descendants of his own clan had been lifted, before the news spread, it was immediately reported that the lifter had drowned in the well.
His first reaction was to come over first to see if he could be rescued and come back, and when he saw that he was out of breath, he was first angry, and then immediately guessed whether he had been murdered......
After coming to check the Sifang Well, there is really no trace to be found, and no one has seen it, as far as he knows, Hua Ciyuan is also because he has been reading at home all the year round, and rarely goes out, so he knows a good friend, it can almost be said that there is no one, which can also be indirectly ruled out, and the people he knows know secretly murdered him because he was jealous of him.
In the end, it was concluded that he had drowned by falling into the water......
The Li family, who was forcibly dragged over, sat on the snow in a daze, and it was not until she heard the last words of the old patriarch that she reacted in a trance.
"No, it's not! Patriarch! Woowoo...... You're going to call the shots! My son must have been killed! He can float, he has a good water nature, how could he drown! AndγAnd how could he come to such a place where birds don't, and fall into it and drown, someone must have tricked him and pushed him in, and he drowned...! β¦ Woowoo woo ......"
Li shook his head tremblingly, crawled over on his knees, and tugged at the old patriarch's trouser leg with one hand, and tears suddenly welled up again.
The old patriarch can come over with a large group of people to check, he must also suspect that someone has murdered him, otherwise he would not have run over!
Li's heart still doesn't believe that her son, who was lifted and came out, is gone......
Even she didn't know if someone had deliberately murdered her, but she was just stunned, thinking that someone was jealous of her, so after knowing that his son was raised, she couldn't see her well, and deliberately pushed him down and drowned......
The old patriarch kicked the hands and feet that the Li family was entangled with, but in the end, he was old and his bones were hard, and he couldn't kick the Li family away after a long time.
He yelled at Li Shi angrily: "Li Lianxin, what are you doing?!" Leave it to me! β
Li shook his head desperately, grabbed the old patriarch's leg alive, and cried for him to make the decision for himself.
"Are you all dead? Don't drag me away yet! Ahem, ahem! β¦β¦β
The old patriarch was really angry this time, and after roaring two words, he coughed loudly.
Li Shi was once again forcibly dragged away, this time she struggled even more, shaking her head frantically and waving her hands and struggling, her legs kicking everywhere, a white hair mixed with green silk, messily scattered, tears and snot, and a confused face.
An old lady over half a hundred years old, like a child, broke down crying and fussing.
The old patriarch saw that his head was bulging, and seeing that the Li family refused to give up, in front of everyone's eyes, the old patriarch took care of his face, and it was not good to wave his hand and leave like this.
He stomped on his crutches, suppressed his anger, and asked in a deep voice, "Then what do you want to do?" You say he was killed? And what about the evidence? If there is no evidence, just rely on your mouth to talk nonsense, and if you say yes, you will say, this village might as well give you the final say! β
The Li family, who was sitting on the ground like a sprinkler, wiped the tears on his face, his dark eyes, and looked at the old patriarch fixedly, with resentment in him that could not be hidden.
The old patriarch frowned, and his impatience reached its peak: "You yourself said that there was some murder? Then tell me, who else does your son know when he goes out to help when he is busy with farming, and when he doesn't go out of the door and doesn't step out of the second door? Everyone in the village knows each other in person, who will kill him for no reason? β
As soon as these words came out, Li's dark eyes suddenly widened, and he looked ahead with a stiff expression.
I don't know what I thought of, but after a while, I was enlightened and enlightened......
Everyone saw Li stretching out his hand and patting his head, covering his face with his hands, and letting out a weird laugh.
"Hahaha...... I know! I know!! β
The sound of her laughter was terrifying.
Shouting out loud what you know......
The onlookers looked at each other, and even thought that she was hit hard and crazy.
In the crowd, Hua Shi's eyebrows frowned slightly, and after watching Li cry and make a fuss, he suddenly laughed madly, and his heart drooped a little bit.
Li's crazy appearance is very wrong......
