Chapter Twenty-Three: Is the Village Chief a Demon?

After a stick of incense, the messy ancestral hall became brightly lit, but Zhao Si's body could be cleaned up, and those broken ancestral tablets could not be restored to order.

"Village chief, Li Kui brought it over. The burly Erniu pulled Li Kui in, and when he got to the front of everyone, he snorted coldly and pushed hard, and Li Kui fell to the ground.

"Say, in front of the ancestors of this room, in front of the old compatriots of the same village, you tell everyone, why did you bring Wang Zhutou to the ancestral hall in the middle of the night, what is the so-called matter?" At this time, Li Sanhuai was already full of anger by tonight's turmoil.

The ancestral ancestral hall was defiled, the court officials were murdered, and there were no dead bodies, could this be to make their river valley village ruined?

"Aren't you going to say it soon?" Seeing that Li Kui was still lowering his head to cover up, Li Sanhuai was even more angry, if he hadn't been afraid of some of the villagers' face, he would have been slapped to death by this unscrupulous descendant.

"Don't you want to say it soon?" Li Changchun on the side also pretended to be angry and scolded.

Li Kui raised his head and cautiously glanced at his second uncle.

Seeing the look of hatred and indignation, he praised his second uncle in his heart, and he admired his acting skills, so he pretended to calm himself and said.

"It's the village chief, and it's the village chief who asked the little nephew to bring Wang Zhutou in. ”

As soon as these words came out, they were full of noise, and the stunned voices were even more than that, and the elders and young generations in the village frequently exchanged heads and ears, and looked at Li Sanhuai, who was also stunned, from time to time.

"You bastard. Erniu, who was waiting in front of Li Sanhuai, saw that the situation was wrong, scolded angrily, and went up to kick Li Kui down.

"The village chief fell asleep at three o'clock, how could he have asked you to bring people to the ancestral ancestral hall, obviously you were the puffer who said to the root, Wang Zhutou hijacked you and forcibly broke into the ancestral hall, and asked you to ask the village chief to bring someone to save you. ”

"How could I have coerced you?" Wang Hu on the side immediately became angry when he heard this.

"It's clear that you came to the inn to call me, unless you idiot informed your village chief before that?" Wang Hu said angrily.

"Or rather, this is the double reed performed by your river valley village, if this is the case, you will not be able to run away from the murder of the imperial court officials. ”

"Please also ask the adults to quench their anger......" Li Sanhuai heard this, and hurriedly said, "There are different explanations for this matter, and there may be other hidden secrets, didn't the adults say, there are demons and evil spirits, wait for the grass people to call Li Ergen, and you will know when you ask." ”

"Hmph. Wang Hu snorted coldly, not speaking, Xiao Zhan on the side saw this, and did not interject, for a while the entire ancestral hall was as quiet as water, only the candlelight swayed gently, and the shadows added a solemn color.

Soon, the roots were passed in, and under the solemn eyes of the villagers, the time and place of the request for help were made public in a few moments.

Everyone gasped after hearing this, and someone actually pretended to be the village chief Li Sanhuai and Li Kui at about the same time.

"If what the two of them say is true, there must be demons in this matter. Li Sanhuai also suppressed the fear in his heart and said to Wang Hu.

He never expected that the demon would turn into his appearance and kill the officers and soldiers.

"Please also ask your Excellency to investigate clearly, and give me justice in Hegu Village, and I also hope that your Excellency can quickly send someone to the county seat and ask for reinforcements from the county commander. When he said this, Li Sanhuai glanced at Xiao Zhan, who was silent.

This person was silent before, but now he suddenly appeared, I am afraid that the yamen is also suspicious of the river valley village, I don't know whether it is for the sacrifice of the river god, or ......

Thinking of this, Li Sanhuai looked at Li Changchun on the side and said.

"Where's Daoist Shen?"

"I've sent someone to ask for it. Li Changchun replied, "It's just the current matter, how to deal with it?"

"How to deal with it?" Wang Hu said coldly when he heard this.

"Since that monster dares to change into the appearance of the village chief and harm people, there must be an ulterior mystery, although you have ruled out the suspicion of Village Chief Li through words, but before the matter is clarified, Li Sanhuai is guilty of a crime and needs to be supervised by us. ”

"Ridiculous. Li Changchun slapped the table and said loudly.

"My river valley village is a good place, and now there are demons harming people, this is the responsibility of your court, and now the river god sacrifice is imminent, if the village chief can't come out to preside, what if the good day is delayed and the demons are further harmed?" After speaking, Li Changchun coughed violently, looking red and weak.

"That being the case, this matter will be over tonight, but when Village Chief Li acts next, he must tell me to wait. Seeing the sudden surging of public sentiment in the ancestral hall, Xiao Zhan spoke.

"Wang Hu, let's go. ”

"Let's ...... slowly" At this time, Li Sanhuai suddenly said aloud.

"What's the matter, don't you still want to force me to wait?" Wang Hu said coldly, with a fierce intention of drawing a knife without saying a word.

"The grass people don't dare to ...... Fang Cai's matter, Xu is a lot of offense, and the small people lead the villagers to complain to the adults. Li Sanhuai got up and clenched his fists and confessed.

"Caomin wants to say, since Lord Wang thinks that Xiaomin is suspicious, I, Li Sanhuai, am willing to cooperate with the adult in handling the case, and I also hope that the imperial court can help my Hegu Village get rid of this demonic disaster in this matter. ”

"Needless to say, this official will do his best in this matter. Wang Hu said coldly, when he stepped away first, Xiao Zhan on the side clenched his fist to Li Sanhuai, and then followed.

After the two left, the ancestral hall suddenly quieted down, and after Li Sanhuai glanced at Li Changchun, he set his eyes on Li Kui again.

"Li Kui, did you really see that demon transform into my appearance and harm people before?"

"Village chief, Li Kui never dared to say anything, after Wang Zhutou entered the hall, he was beaten out by the village chief who was demonized, and then Zhao Zhuhai was cut in half...... When the corpse was brought out, it was clear to everyone that this was not human. ”

"How is this good, how is this good, third brother, you have to pay attention as soon as possible, the people of the yamen died in the ancestral hall of our clan, not to mention that this matter is unlucky, if it can't be found out as soon as possible, the court will not give up, not to mention, there are demons...... Demons are in trouble, this ...... How can this be good?" said an old man with a gray beard, trembling as he was supported by his juniors.

"What's the panic?" Li Changchun shouted.

"Second brother, I ......" The old man wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sighed, shaking his head and not saying more.

"The second brother should not be angry, and the fifth brother should not be anxious, there is a judgment on right and wrong, the court will not be indiscriminate, and the most important thing at the moment is the demonic chaos. Li Sanhuai said hurriedly, and then looked at Erniu.

"Let's go, accompany me to find Daoist Shen, such a big thing happened, and no one was even seen. ”

"Tonight's events, and don't spread the word, and there is not much to talk about about the monster becoming the village head...... Li Kui, come with me. After Li Changchun finished speaking, he also left the ancestral hall with some people, but sometimes, his eyes were gloomy.
