Chapter 26: I'm Not a Murderer

The spring rain in the sky was getting heavier and heavier, and Li Tian rode his horse and galloped, wanting to arrive at Li's mansion earlier.

In the hazy rain, it is difficult to see the scenery a little farther away, and the wide stone streets have accumulated rain in many places, and the sound of horses' hooves treading water is crisp, and clumps of water splash with the horse's legs.

He ran towards Li Banghua's mansion according to the direction in his memory, and suddenly found a slow-walking figure in front of him, and hurriedly pulled the reins to stop the horse.

But the speed of the horse's gallop just now had been very fast, and even though the white horse's head was pulled high, it still rushed forward for several times before stopping, and finally stopped standing before it was about to hit the figure.

Li Tian leaned forward with the inertia of the horse, and almost fell off the horse, and he was very dissatisfied in his heart, what was this person wandering around the street on a rainy day.

He looked ahead angrily, but found an old woman of eighty or ninety years old, holding a thin bamboo as a crutch, groping her way around.

The old woman was not at all alarmed by the fact that she had almost lost her horse's hoof, and her eyes were tightly closed, as if she were blind, so she walked slowly forward.

Li Tian saw that he almost bumped into a blind old man, and he was a little reluctant to go, so he asked with a pleasant face, "Old man, why don't you go home and hide in such a heavy rain?"

When the old woman heard this, she didn't stop, but complained bitterly, "The old woman is waiting to starve to death, what to do in the rain, and she will die of illness." ”

Li Tian saw that the old woman was dressed very old, and there were many patches, and it seemed that she was a poor blind woman, so he took out two silver ingots from his bosom sympathetically.

He jumped off his horse and chased after him, stuffed the silver ingot into the old woman's hand, and said, "The old man is not short of money, I have a little here, you can use it first, life always has to go on." ”

The old woman pinched the two ingots of silver in her hand and said with a light smile, "There are still such good people in the world, and the old woman understands it." But I don't want the money, so you might as well take it." ”

Li Tian wondered, "Do you think that there is less silver, I will give you some more, anyway, I won't need it." ”

He felt very sorry because he almost bumped into this old man, and there was nothing to use the silver, so he generously wanted to send the silver away.

The old woman hurriedly stretched out her hand and pushed the two ingots of silver to Li Tian's chest, and said anxiously, "Young man, quickly put away the silver, don't be seen by the traitors and bad seeds, if you are caught, you won't be able to get out." ”

Li Tian looked strange and stunned on the spot. I am now a soldier of the Compensation Division, although it is only temporary, but it is a little unbearable to scold people in person.

He still put the two ingots of silver in the old woman's hand, and said, "The old man will take the silver and I'll go." ”

However, the old woman grabbed Li Tian and didn't let go, and said hurriedly, "The young man takes the silver back, the eldest lady is a person who is going to die, and she will die with the silver on her body." ”

Li Tianqi said, "The old man doesn't even want money, but he always says that he will die." What the hell is going on?"

The old woman suddenly cried bitterly and said sadly, "My wife and I used to have a big family, and our lives were quite reunited, but not long ago, I suffered from the plague god. Only me and a filial granddaughter hid in the past. ”

"In order to support me, a blind old woman, my granddaughter sold some embroidery on Tianqiao Street to make a living, but today I heard that she was killed by Liu Zongmin, who was killed by God!"

"My wife has lived for more than 90 years, and she has long lived enough. But her granddaughter is only eighteen years old, and she hasn't found a mother-in-law to marry yet. ”

"When I found my granddaughter and buried her, I died on my own. It's better than starving. ”

She paused to cry and said to Li Tian, who was at a loss, "The young man is a kind person, if you want to give me two pieces of silver, this old woman, you better go, I will go to find my granddaughter's body and bury it." ”

Li Tian watched the old woman slowly turn around with a bamboo stick and a cane, and groped forward again, remembering that her granddaughter who sold embroidery died in front of his eyes, and his heart suddenly felt a little sad.

Looking at the lonely figure that gradually disappeared in the rain curtain, he sighed secretly, I don't know how many such victims there are in the troubled times, and what can he change.

"Ouch"

In the rain, there was a sudden snort of an old woman, and it seemed that she had slipped and fallen.

Li Tian pulled the horse and walked over quickly, and saw the old woman lying helplessly on the ground moaning, and hurriedly reached out to help her.

The old woman was helped up, and her mouth kept lamenting, "I should have died a long time ago, I only suffered to stay in this world, but poor my granddaughter is also dead, and even if she is buried, no one will burn incense." ”

She had a hard time standing up, and it looked like she was having some problems with her feet.

Li Tian saw that the old woman was simply inserting her hair with a wooden hairpin, and she was all messed up just now, and she couldn't bear to see the current appearance of this lonely old man, so he reached out to straighten her hair.

He looked around and said, "The old man should go and hide from the rain." ”

The old woman shook her head again and again, "Don't hide from the rain, I'm going to find my granddaughter quickly, what if the body is eaten by wild dogs when it's too late." ”

Li Tianjian couldn't persuade the old woman, so he had to help her get on the white horse, and then walked to Tianqiao Street from memory, fortunately the rain in the sky was lighter.

The old woman suddenly spoke on the horse, "Xie Lu, thank you for letting me ride a white BMW, the young man has a good heart, if my granddaughter doesn't die, I may have a good marriage with you." ”

Li Tian turned around and smiled at the old woman, and continued to walk forward without saying a word, secretly saying in his heart, "This old man is sad that his only relative has died, so he is talking nonsense, which is really pitiful." ”

He thought that after the old woman buried her granddaughter, he would take it to Li Banghua's mansion, and it was nothing to raise one more person there anyway.

After walking for a while, I came to Tianqiao Street, only to see a wolf scene everywhere, the shop guys were busy packing up the goods in the store, and some shopkeepers and large, medium and small wives hugged and cried.

Seeing Li Tian appear alone, everyone along the street became nervous, and when they saw the blind old woman sitting on the horse he was leading, they were all surprised.

Li Tian took the old woman along the street, and when he found the place where the embroidery woman committed suicide, he saw that the corpse had been covered with an oilcloth by someone, revealing a pale hand hanging on the ground.

"Grandson, you died too unjustly! Grandma will come to accompany you later......"

The old woman sitting on the horse suddenly cried out in grief, jumped off the horse with Li Tian with all her might, and then threw herself on the young woman and cried.

Li Tian saw that the tarpaulin was torn off by the old woman, and then he looked at the young woman carefully, and saw that she had a beautiful face, and she was probably only sixteen or seventeen years old.

The old woman's crying became louder and louder, and some people with umbrellas slowly walked around, in addition to the shopkeeper and his wife, as well as the residents who lived in the annex.

"Mrs. Dong, don't cry, are you blind in your heart, the person who killed your granddaughter Xiu'er is right in front of you, why are you still riding the enemy's horse!"

"That is, if Xiu'er sees her grandmother and the enemy so good, I'm afraid that she won't live in peace if she dies!"

"Your granddaughter stabbed herself to death and kept her innocence, but the poor daughter of my shopkeeper was snatched away by Shunbing, I'm afraid that when I see it again, it will be a corpse, this is really wronged!"

......

Li Tian heard the words of the people around him, his heart tightened, and he looked around and found that these people looked at him very coldly.

The old woman raised her head and glared at Li Tian angrily, gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "Are you the thief who killed my granddaughter? No wonder the clothes you wear are so vulgar, hum! Don't look at the old woman, I am blind and frail, and I will fight with you today!"

She jumped up from the ground and stretched out her thin hands to grab Li Tian's face. (To be continued......)
