Chapter 4 Confirmation of the True Culprit

Li Er Mazi is forty and three this year, ranking second in the family, because his face is full of pockmarks, he is called Li Er Mazi, his real name has been forgotten by everyone, because of his ugly appearance, coupled with his idleness, the family has told him many family affairs, and no family is willing to marry their daughter to Li Er Mazi.

After Li Ermazi's father and mother died, no one cared about him, and Li Ermazi acted even more unscrupulously.

Anyway, he is full of food alone, the whole family is not hungry, and he does not have so many scruples about doing things, and he is a well-known scoundrel in Wangjia Town.

More than ninety percent of the people in Wangjia Town are surnamed Wang, Li Er Mazi did not dare to provoke the daughters of the Wang family, so he extended his claws to the orphans and widows with different surnames, and the young and beautiful Xiaofeng was bullied by Li Er Mazi.

Li Er Mazi has a thief's heart but no thief's guts, coupled with the constraints of the Wang family, Li Er Mazi does not dare to come nonsense.

After Xiaofeng disappeared, he asked Li Ermazi a few times, and as soon as Wang Changsheng opened his mouth to ask about Xiaofeng, this caused Li Ermazi's discomfort.

"When was the last time you saw Xiaofeng?Has anything strange happened in your house recently?Apart from peeking at Xiaofeng taking a bath, have you ever done anything excessive to Xiaofeng?"

Wang Changsheng threw out three questions in a row, staring at Li Ermazi.

People have three souls and seven spirits, under normal circumstances, after a person dies, the three souls and seven spirits will slowly dissipate, Xiaofeng and her mother were starved to death, and the corpse was burned, and the probability of becoming a ghost is very low, in contrast, the chance of the missing Xiaofeng becoming a ghost is greater.

If a person has a grudge before death, and the body is thrown in a place full of yin qi, there is a high chance that he will become a ghost after death.

Xiaofeng is young and beautiful, if she is humiliated to death by a man, she will definitely have resentment, and there is a great chance of becoming a ghost.

If Wang Changsheng didn't guess wrong, Xiaofeng must have been killed, so he didn't go back to cook for her mother, causing her mother to starve to death.

"More than a month ago! I passed by her tofu stall at noon and bought a little bean curd to eat, as for my home, nothing strange happened, I peeked at her bathing, I didn't do anything else, her disappearance has nothing to do with me. ”

"Did you kill Xiaofeng, where did you hide the body?" Wang Changsheng's face turned cold and he shouted loudly.

When Li Ermazi heard this, he was as impatient as an ant on a hot pot, and defended: "The conscience of heaven and earth! I, Li Ermazi, don't even dare to kill chickens, where do I dare to kill people, you can't pour this dirty water on me." ”

"Hmph, you still dare to lie, last time you ran to Xiaofeng's house in the middle of the night, if Xiaofeng hadn't shouted loudly, I'm afraid it would have been ruined by you, you must have killed Xiaofeng, say it quickly, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin." Wang Tianhu said viciously.

When Li Er Mazi heard this, his face turned pale, and he retorted: "Black fat man, you can't come nonsense, I, Li Er Mazi, don't even dare to kill chickens, how dare I kill someone, I was drunk that time, Xiaofeng, this girl's eyes are higher than the top, maybe she ran away with that little white face, why buckle the basin on my head." ”

Like Li Ermazi, a scoundrel who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, he is most afraid of the people in the government.

If he was really caught in prison, he would definitely be tortured.

"Little white face, who is this person? ”

Li Ermazi pursed his lips and said: "A month ago, there was a son-in-law surnamed Zhao who passed by here, that kid looked white and clean, like a girl, I don't know what dates that kid gave Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng was in the middle of the night and he was in the alley to talk to me, but I bumped into it, hum, shameless woman, pretending to be high in front of Lao Tzu, only known each other for a few days, just hugged and hugged in the alley, didn't you dislike Lao Tzu for having no money?"

"Do any of you know the origin of this Zhao Gongzi, or have you seen this person?" Wang Changsheng looked at Wang Qingyun and asked in a deep voice.

Wang Tianhu thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "Zhao Gongzi, is he taking a scholar?"

"Then I don't know, but that little white face does have a scholar, young and golden, and there are servants to serve closely, no wonder Xiaofeng's girl will take a fancy to that little white face. ”

"A month ago, several scholars who were rushing to take the exam passed through our Wangjia Town, and among them was a scholar surnamed Zhao, because of that Zhao Gongzi's generous moves, I was more impressed by him, but I remember that when they left, they didn't take their daughters with them!" Wang Tianhu wondered.

"Are you sure they left without their daughters?"

Wang Tianhu thought for a while, nodded and said: "I'm sure, the inn they live in is opened by the grandson's family, except for Zhao Gongzi and the scholar, the other scholars are all alone, a total of six people, they lived for a total of three days, when they left it was morning, it happened to be seen by the grandson, no more, no less, it was six people, as for whether they brought Xiaofeng on the road, the grandson is not clear." ”

"Why did they delay for three days in the town when they went to Beijing to take the exam?" Wang Changsheng asked the question in his heart.

"It seems that Zhao Gongzi occasionally felt cold, or I helped him invite a doctor, that Zhao Gongzi was sick and helpless, if Xiaofeng was killed, he should not be the murderer, he had no motive to commit the crime. Wang Tianhu's guest officer analyzed.

"By the way, I remembered one thing, my family's prosperity was stoned to death, it's really fucking unlucky. Li Er Mazi added.

"Is your family Wangcai a black dog?Is there anything unusual these days?" Wang Changsheng's eyes lit up and he asked.

"How do you know that Wangcai is a black dog?" Li Er Mazi was a little surprised, thought about it, and said: "Wangcai was raised by my father, raised for more than ten years, his teeth are about to fall out, he can't bite people, and I didn't tie it, but I don't know what's going on recently, it barks non-stop in the middle of the night, I was angry, I tied it to the firewood room, and found this morning that it was stoned to death, I don't know which guy who lacks virtue ran to my house in the middle of the night and stoned Wangcai to death." ”

Hearing this, Wang Changsheng can be sure that Xiaofeng is dead, and has become a ghost and harms people.

The dog is the animal of the yang, the corresponding twelve earthly branches and five elements are the earth, the earth is the yang soil, the ghost is the yin, the dog is born to restrain the ghost, the Taoist priest often uses the blood of the black dog to drive away the evil and cure the demon, Xiaofeng became a ghost, and wanted to find Li Ermazi for revenge, but as soon as she approached Li Ermazi's home, she was discovered by the black dog, and the black dog barked wildly.

If Wang Changsheng guessed correctly, Xiaofeng would definitely come out tonight to harm Li Ermazi.

Li Er Mazi is not stupid, seeing so many Wang family elders gathered together, and thinking of the recent murder, he asked a little nervously: "It can't be that murderer who killed Wangcai, right?

Wang Changsheng shook his head and said: "No, the county government found a female corpse, and initially suspected that it was Xiaofeng, and came to you to confirm whether you were a murderer, now I have asked clearly, that Zhao Gongzi has a great motive for committing the crime, you can go back, by the way, don't publicize this matter to the public." ”

Li Er Mazi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find a flaw in Wang Changsheng's words, so he didn't think much about it, and turned to leave.

I couldn't imagine that the murderer was not a human, but a ghost.

"Qiuxian, go outside and keep guard, don't let idle people get close to the ancestral hall, I have something to explain to you. Wang Changsheng commanded.

"Yes, Uncle Nine. Wang Qiuxian responded and followed Li Ermazi out.

"Uncle Jiu, is that female ghost really Xiaofeng?" Wang Qingyun asked in a low voice, his eyes full of worry.

Wang Changsheng nodded and said: "Well, if I guessed correctly, she will definitely come out to harm people tonight, notify it, after dark, all the clansmen are not allowed to go out alone, there are no young and strong people at home, move to the young and strong family tonight to live for one night, a family must live at least eight people, eat, drink and Lazar together, in addition, find a way to let this Li Er Mazi sleep at home obediently tonight, and sleep as dead as possible." ”

"Let Li Ermazi sleep well tonight, grandson can do it, and guarantee that he won't wake up until dawn tomorrow. Wang Tianhu patted his chest and reassured, full of confidence.

"Have you heard Uncle Nine's words? Go back and inform the clansmen, strictly follow Uncle Nine's instructions to do so, and declare to the outside world that it is to strictly prevent murder demons, and what Uncle Nine said just now is not allowed to leak out, if anyone leaks out, it will delay Uncle Nine to catch ghosts, and severely punish him. Wang Qingyun looked at the other elders of the Wang family and said solemnly.

'Yes, Sams. The elders of the Wang family agreed to come down one after another and left one after another.
