I don't know how long I slept, Jiang Fang was awakened by the screams outside.

"Dong'er—"

Is this the voice of the eldest brother Jiang Chuan? Is he calling his sister-in-law?

Thinking of the vicious and evil woman, Jiang Fang's heart suddenly felt cold - was last night's incident real or a dream?

looked around, still lying in the dirty pigsty, the big-ass sow was still tirelessly pooping, but the fierce Ji Shaomei was nowhere to be seen.

"It seems like just a dream. Jiang Fang breathed a sigh of relief and comforted himself: "I just crossed, my body is not used to the air pressure environment here, and it is normal to have nightmares." ”

"Winter !!"

Jiang Chuan's heart-rending cry came from the room over there.

What happened? Could it be that the wicked woman disliked Jiang Chuan's lack of strength in bed and left a letter to run away from home? Jiang Fang was curious, rubbed his eyes, walked over, and saw that the house was overcrowded, so he leaned on the window and looked through the crack in the window.

Grass!

When you see the scene in the house,

Even in broad daylight, Jiang Fang was still cold!

That wicked woman, her sister-in-law, was sitting on the bed in a big red wedding dress, and her neck was blood-red and dazzling—like the three previous deceased, she was also decapitated!

The only difference is that she has the salty grass characteristic of long grass slopes stuck around her neck.

"What's going on?" Jiang Fang was puzzled: "Why did she die all of a sudden? What happened to her last night?"

In addition to the sister-in-law and Jiang Chuan in the house, there were many neighboring villagers, after the first three shocks and shocks, they were able to be relatively calm about the corpse on the bed, and they were all around Jiang Chuan to support and comfort them at this moment.

"Dong'er, my Dong'er, I would have known that you had this experience, and I wouldn't have beaten you for anything I said last night!"

Jiang Chuan sat on the ground, scratching his head in annoyance and whimpering, and kept calling his daughter-in-law's name, and the Xipa in his hand was very dazzling.

"Jiang Chuan, the person is dead, no matter how uncomfortable you are, you can't bring her back to life. The patriarch sighed and waved his hand to the two people behind him: "Carry the person out first." ”

"No!" Jiang Chuan jumped up on the spot like a wounded beast and pushed the villagers away, shouting emotionally: "No! No one can take Dong'er away! I want to bury Dong'er in a coffin!"

"Jiang Chuan, don't be like this. The patriarch had two horizontal eyebrows, and now the two horizontal eyebrows are crowded together: "This is our rule here! Those who die must pull the dead man's post to sacrifice the blood flag! Not allowed to be buried in the village mound, no one can be an exception! Otherwise, this sinister atmosphere will harm the village, can you afford it?!"

Hearing the patriarch say this, Jiang Chuan was immediately deflated.

People are dead, and the rules are also dead, and the rules that the patriarch said are the group training that Xiaomancun has adhered to for hundreds of years: if it is a natural death, you can buy a coffin and enter the village mound and have your family worship;

"No, no, it can't be like this, it can't be like this. Jiang Chuan burst into tears: "I want to bury Dong'er in the village, I want to bury Dong'er with Dong'er when I die, patriarch, you can't drive Dong'er out." ”

Seeing him crying sadly, a few of the villagers standing behind the patriarch turned their faces sideways.

"Jiang Chuan, I know you're uncomfortable, but this is the rule, and the rules can't be changed. The patriarch said softly, "Let it go, let her sleep well." ”

"Wait!"

Jiang Chuan was shocked, as if he suddenly thought of something, walked quickly to Jiang Fang's side, grabbed his shoulder and asked anxiously: "Jiang Fang, what did you mean by saying that just now? Why did you say why she died suddenly? Do you know something? Or did you see something? You tell my brother!"

Jiang Fang saw a more urgent and more urgent question in Jiang Chuan's eyes - how did you see so clearly with your eyes?

"You speak!" Jiang Chuan urged excitedly.

Jiang Fang knew what he wanted to do.

The sister-in-law died and was not allowed to enter the village mound, but if they could provide clues or directly help the village find this murderous demon, their family would be the hero, and they could change that.

To be honest, Jiang Fang also wanted to help Jiang Chuan, after all, this was his "own brother", but he really didn't know who killed his sister-in-law.

Just as I was about to speak,

A childish child's voice suddenly came from outside: "I saw it, I got up to pee last night and saw Brother Jiang Fang!"

Everyone followed the prestige, and I don't know when a little head lay on my stomach outside the half-branch window, and silently saw everything in the room.

When I looked closely, it was the seven-year-old son of the old Zhu family, Zhu Dayong.

One of the two people who the patriarch ordered to move the corpse just now was suddenly stunned by his huge body, and hurriedly ran to the window: "Dayong, what are you doing here?! Who told you to run around?! Hurry home and find your mother!"

This is Lao Zhu, who is as fat as a pig, as strong as a bear, and his brain is not very good, and he is the patriarch's follower.

The patriarch likes his stupidity, and his stupidity will not be tempted, so he will be loyal.

"Jiang Fang?" Jiang Chuan's face was gloomy: "What did you do last night?!"

The salty grass on the neck of the corpse is unique to the long grass slope, and Zhu Dayong said that he had seen Jiangfang last night, and everyone realized something.

The patriarch naturally realized it, stopped Lao Zhu's reprimand, and asked him to bring the child in.

Lao Zhu hesitated for a moment and carried his son in through the window, but he still used his body to block the right angle of sight between the corpse and Zhu Dayong.

The patriarch changed his seriousness just now, lowered his voice and said, "Dayong, what have you seen?" tell grandpa. ”

Zhu Dayong pulled out his finger from his nostrils and pointed at Jiang Fang, and said, "Last night, I saw Dong'er's sister-in-law enter the long grass slope, and Brother Jiang Fang also entered the long grass slope. ”

Whoosh, everyone's eyes surrounded Jiang Fang with high vigilance.

Jiang Chuan slowly turned his head to look at Jiang Fang, surprised, weird, unfamiliar, unbelievable, with a complicated expression that could not be described.

Children can't lie, not to mention that this is Lao Zhu's child.

Then the truth is almost left: Jiang Fang is a murderer.

"The stakes are too high to be taken lightly. The patriarch waved his hand, asked everyone to be quiet for a while, and then stared at Jiang Fang and said, "Jiang Fang, did you follow your sister-in-law to Changcaopo last night?"

"I guess so. Jiang Fang dared to be sure at this time that it was not a dream last night, "I did follow my sister-in-law to Changcaopo, but I didn't kill her and I don't know who killed her." Last night, at the third watch, I couldn't sleep and got up to drink water, and I saw my sister-in-law secretly going out alone. Recently, there was an accident in the village, and it was so late, I didn't worry about my sister-in-law, so I secretly followed, just like that...... I followed to the long grass slope. ”

The patriarch narrowed his eyes: "And then?"

And then?

Do you really think you are a murderer?

Jiang Fang looked around at everyone, and finally looked at Jiang Chuan and said seriously: "No, I won't see my sister-in-law when I follow Changcaopo, and I'll come back." ”

Jiang Fang wanted to say that he had encountered a ghost, but he didn't know what was going on, and he couldn't even figure out how he came back, so no one believed him if he said it truthfully.

Hearing Jiang Fang say this, everyone's faces became very strange.

How could a living person suddenly disappear? Jiang Fang is lying, this is trying to cover up!

The patriarch was the first to break the silence and asked Jiang Chuan: "Your daughter-in-law went out and came back, and she was killed, didn't you listen to such a big movement? Is it possible?"

Jiang Chuan turned a deaf ear and stared at Jiang Fang with his eyes.

Jiang Chuan has a deep affection for Dong'er, and he naturally will not kill his wife. The patriarch stared at Jiang Fang deadly, "Most likely, you are lying." Why didn't you wake up your brother and secretly follow your sister-in-law in the middle of the night? Or is it actually that you have been coveting your sister-in-law for a long time and let your brother sleep to death, and you directly use force on your sister-in-law, but your sister-in-law doesn't obey, so you kill her, right?!"

The more the patriarch spoke, the faster he spoke, like a flying arrow, and fired ten thousand arrows at the river!

Four people died in a row, the flowers on their necks turned into salty grass, and there were witnesses like seven-year-old children, and the murderer finally revealed his flaws.

What are you waiting for this time?!

The patriarch's intention to get an end from him was too obvious! With so many people dying in a row, there was a need for a substitute ghost.

"Come on, lock him up!"

Without waiting for Jiang Fang to refute, the patriarch gave an order, and four or five villagers rushed up and pulled Jiang Fang into the ground cage.

The cage is a form of torture in the village, and those who have committed gross negligence are put in this cage, their legs tied to stones, and the cage is lowered little by little, and they sink into the water and drown.

Even more terrible than drowning is the fear of dying slowly.

"Am I going to be a murderer?" Looking at Jiang Chuan with an angry face and the patriarch with apologetic eyes, Jiang Fang was a little anxious, "Is there any human rights in this place, no, is there any royal law?"

No one took care of Jiang Fang anymore.

Jiang Fang was really a little confused, first crossed, then met a ghost, and then was wrongly accused of being a murderer.

What's next?

After being carried to the river, he knew that the defense of "the overall situation has been decided" was useless, so he watched coldly and listened to the villagers huddle by the river and gossip.

"Didn't you say that Jiang Fang was a fool? How could a fool ......?"

"Who said he was a fool, he was withdrawn, he didn't like to communicate with people, this kind of talent will be the most bad, wilted and wilted!"

"Didn't he have bad eyes last year?

"Who knows if he's really blind or pretending to be blind, you see how well he usually looks at people, I think about it now. ”

"Also, it looks like a weak scholar, but it's actually the most bluffing!"
