The carriage drove out of Ledu, and it is expected to arrive in Pingjing in three days, inquire about the news, and the camellia will be auctioned within five days, which can be purchased with money, and the treasure can be exchanged, and the one with the highest price will get it.

Shen Shi, out of the music of ten miles, there is a nameless inn in a remote place, the wooden room is short, there is a dense green lake next to it, the old dry well, as far as the eye can see, a little tattered, as if it has not been opened all the year round, the dirty table and stinky cloth are placed wantonly; the inn is really in front of you, but it is so small that it is humble and eye-catching, the size of three rooms, only the proprietress has a thin red veil to cover her face, and her six-year-old daughter, the mother and daughter are deeply dependent on each other, and there is no one else.

"Good meals!"

are praising the proprietress for her profound cooking skills, she is responsible for stir-frying, her daughter washes vegetables and burns the fire, she is well-behaved and cute, and there are many young people. Yan Zhang asked the mother and daughter why they condescended in a place where birds don't, so it was better to move to Ledu and make a lot of money with their skills.

"Bitter, hard, life, days, not good......" The proprietress told that the sky was unkind, and her family of three did not worry about rice, oil, and salt, and the good times did not last long. In the early morning eight years ago, the murder quietly appeared, and as usual, she accompanied her husband to the mountains to farm, but she didn't know that she fell into the mouth of the tiger, and the evil animal was calm and followed the husband and wife. Rushing to her weak, her husband desperately pushed her away, his body resisted stubbornly, delaying the tiger and buying her time to survive.

"Man! alive...... No ......" cried with a frightened face, the proprietress did not dare to recall the situation, the evil animal did not come to chase her, stared at the dying man, swallowed his body, vermilion blood flowed, she ran all the way down the mountain, crying and tearing her heart.

Everyone is sympathizing with the mother and daughter, criticizing the evil animal, Gu Qianxu seems to be a little unbelieving, the details are grasped, the man died eight years ago, the daughter is six years old, two years apart, two years apart, two years pregnant, could it be that she is holding a big belly up the mountain, or the proprietress is lying.

"You're lying!" asked Gu Qianxu, dragging his tired body.

"Who?!" Le Tu was surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at the proprietress .

"No, you guys go, don't believe I didn't say it. The proprietress was distracted and unwilling to answer.

"............" seemed to understand and watched silently.

The dead skin refused to admit it, but Gu Qianxu didn't have enough confidence to prove it.

Gu Qianxu said coldly: "Your man fell into the tiger's mouth a few years ago. ”

"Eight years ago, no, it was early in the morning. The sudden question, the proprietress was a little flustered.

"My daughter is six years old and two years pregnant, so this girl ...... When to be in the belly. ”

"Actually......"

Gu Qianxu grasped the doubt, the proprietress was pitiful and cried again, she lost her husband eight years ago and became a helpless widow, but seven years ago, when the sun set into the mountain, she was alone in the bamboo forest to have fun, to relieve the loneliness of a moment, the low moan spread, into the ears of the nearby firewood collectors, heard the sound and found herself. The firewood collector spoiled her pure body, and fled quietly after a moment of fun, she was depressed for a while, and even sought death, but it is not clear when, the symptoms of pregnancy came out, and the desire to die to prove cleanliness became more and more intense. The proprietress cried miserably, sat on the ground and punished, scolding herself for being a slut and ruining her reputation. When I learned that I was pregnant, I tried to die several times in the early days, but under the comfort of myself, I couldn't stop it, and I endured spitting and gave birth to a girl.

"Scum!" swore words, not knowing the truth, and was slipped around by the superficial words.

"Life is miserable! innocence is ruined!" the proprietress sat on the ground crying, hugging her daughter beside her, and told bitterly.

"I don't think so. As soon as the words came out, the crying proprietress looked at him in surprise, and gradually retracted her crying, as if her heart was empty, afraid of seeing the clues, and a bigger cry came, and the ghost cried wolf and howled lawlessly.

"She's lying!" Gu Qianxu's sharp words made the proprietress at a loss for a while.

"Qianzi is recovering well, then you can answer, I guess the two will be the same. ”

"Brother Ran is humble again, cough cough! Then, I'll just talk about my opinion, and I'm ugly......"

Afraid that he would be sick again, the groom went to pick up the line and brought a quilt to him.

First, the husband of the proprietress did not fall into the mouth of the tiger and died from that evil animal, it was just a fabricated lie.

Second, I didn't go to the bamboo forest to have fun at all, and the firewood guys ruined and insulted were all fake, but the girl was born to the proprietress.

Third, the girl doesn't look directly at people, the proprietress talks and deliberately dodges, the dilapidated hut is miscellaneous, you can see the traces of the fight, the dry well and the green park indicate that no one has cleaned it, and there is no clean place here.

Fourth, the real murderer is the proprietress and the girl, the mother and daughter are the people nearby, everyone happened to pass by, the proprietress wiped off the dust in a panic to welcome the guests, the dishes and chopsticks were all freshly washed, mixed with spots that could not be removed.

"That's right. ”

"Why did I kill my husband? You are a broken child, like a sick seedling, and you are talking nonsense!"

The above is Gu Qianxu's speculation, the proprietress couldn't hold her breath, saying that Qianzi Xiaopo knows something, chattering, and slandering innocence.

"Qianzi, don't make trouble!" is indeed lacking evidence, Le Tu apologized to the proprietress and said that the child is not sensible.

"Brother Le Tu, Qianzi's speculation is not wrong. He stood up and spoke for Gu Qianxu.

"Suddenly, why are you also messing around!" Le Tu Yuanchang asked the proprietress not to misunderstand.

"Hey, Qi Long, let the two of them continue. ”

"Doctor Hu, I'm not Qi Long, I'm Le Tu. ”

"Hey, it's all the same, free to speak. ”

Hu Xi stopped Le Tu, but he shouted the wrong name, and the holy doctor and Old Man He both spoke, and it was useless to round the field.

"You!Holy Doctor Huxi?!"

The proprietress panicked and asked the white-haired old man if he was the holy doctor who was appointed by the dynasty, but no one answered her, and the proprietress was obviously messed up.

"Drunken husbands, often beat you, and are dissatisfied with the brutality of killing your husbands, throwing them and burying them to the unknown. "Suddenly, every word and board is clear, the vision looks out the window, the mother and daughter are weak and can't lift the adult man, the lake hides the body, close and convenient.

"I didn't ...... You are not welcome!" the proprietress tried to blow everyone away, but it was all in vain.

"Definitely. Gu Qianxu disagreed with the reckless statement.

"Do you have the reason to convince people?" accepted it humbly and asked Gu Qianxu what his high opinion was.

"The inn exists, it is brilliant for a while, drunk and beats his wife and daughter, and the problem needs to be solved, and the contradiction between the husband and the wife and daughter is the root. Gu Qianxu talked slightly, and the head of what he said was the Tao.

Gu Qianxu asked softly: "Little sister, can you tell your age." ”

"............" the girl did not answer.

"She's six years old, little Qianzi, isn't there something strange?!" asked Hu Xi puzzled.

"Grandpa Hu, there's nothing wrong with her age, but she can't speak......" Gu Qianxu squinted and shook his head, and sat on the stool gently.

"You mean she's dumb!?" Yan Zhang suddenly realized, his words were not brainy, and he blurted out.

"The drunken husband, who drank as much as thunder, beat the mother and daughter precisely because he gave birth to a mute daughter. Gu Qianxu made a pun, leaving the proprietress speechless, hugging the girl and crying.

"Where is the body that is being processed? It is this point that I am puzzled about, and I want to hear Gu Qianxu's clever opinion.

"It doesn't work to abandon the lake, the inn is basically the government's, or a ranger, and the body is easy to expose flaws when it comes to the surface, so it is chopped into pieces, packed with bundled stones in the bag, thrown into the well, and then thrown into the lake. ”

This analysis is staggering, the proprietress pleads guilty and repents, kills her husband that night, cleans up the mess in the middle of the night, mistakenly thinks that she has been relocated or killed, and asks to spare her daughter.

Old man He smiled and said, "It's not just ......."

Everyone sympathized, and the mother and daughter had no choice but to do it, but they would not return to the inn for no reason, there must be a hidden secret.

He got up abruptly and said, "Confess and be lenient." ”

"My name is Li Ling, my husband's name is Zhou Qin, I was drunk all day, I picked up my clothes and went back to my hometown a few days ago, explained the reason, I was swallowed by a tiger, I deceived the people in the village, my cousin was drunk, drunk and not sober to hook up with me, and I learned from his cousin that he had a huge treasure and buried it under the counter. The proprietress cried unconsciously.

Old man He said in a hoarse voice, "So you take the child back to the inn to take out the treasure and settle down in another place." ”

"That's right...... Truly, a man is a god. The proprietress knelt on the ground and kowtowed, praying to spare the mother and daughter and stop doing evil in a new life.

He said in a low voice: "Things and afterthoughts, no longer embarrassed." ”

"Thank you, little sir! There are a lot of adults!" The proprietress was very grateful, and Gu Qianxu asked Yan Zhang to dig out the treasures, and entangled the mother and daughter, so that they could leave with kindness.

Gu Qianxu's age, the performance is extraordinary, surpassing his peers, everyone looks at it, and those who do big things are not informal, and they are virtuous.

I can't figure out what the will of heaven knows, the empire of Guotai and Min'an, the wind and rain are smooth, and the holy dragon is known to be the king, why the black dragon came out, and it is unknown whether to save the world or destroy.

After a long delay, it was time to continue on the road, and the people got into the carriage, and the horseman whipped and drove away, galloping on the secluded path.

As the days go by, the sun gradually sets in the western mountains.

Driving——

According to the mark on the map, after a period of time, a small village appeared, called Taiji Village, where you could exchange some items; then bypassed the hillside stream and lake, went to the range of Wuqi Town, found an inn to stay in the town, and entered the Xuanwei Forest at the east entrance of the town the next day;

Without further ado, the grass and trees are reborn along the way, the spring swallow branches are chirping, and the spring water is flowing slowly.

After a moment of moving forward, Taiji Village came into view, and the men of the small village were ploughing the soil and wielding their hoes well, and their strength was indispensable. The items placed in front of the stall are few but practical, and more than ten women are responsible for the transaction, which can be exchanged and purchased.

Phew—

The nobleman's carriage came, stopped at the entrance of the village, and the group got off, and the transaction volume seemed to be quite large, and he was a good rich man. An old man walked over, slowly greeted with a cane, and saluted abruptly to explain that the road was far away and a large number of goods needed to be exchanged.

The old man in front of him is the village chief here, Taiji Village is nominated by Zhu Qing, the first emperor of the Xuan Dynasty, who led the Qing Army to fight against the Mo army of the new dynasty, unify the country, and live in a healthy world.
