Chapter 59 Strange Things Happen on the Road
"Where is this?"
Late at night, in the wilderness, a slightly chubby middle-aged man in an official uniform walked forward tirelessly, walking, I don't know how long he walked, but he couldn't stop no matter what, and his feet didn't seem to obey. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Liu Shimin, where do you want to go, don't hurry back to Guobei City with me. A gust of wind blew, and a servant suddenly appeared out of thin air and landed in front of Liu County's commander with a chain in his hand.
"Who are you?" asked Liu Xianling blankly.
"I am Guo Beicheng's ghost, and I am specially ordered to detain your soul. ”
The chain in the ghost's hand waved Liu County's order, and then pulled him into a yin wind and flew towards Guo Beicheng.
Liu Xianling didn't seem to have any spiritual wisdom, but just followed this ghost blankly and let him be detained.
In just a moment, Liu Xianling came to a magnificent mansion.
A plaque is hung in front of the house, with four characters on it: Guobei Chenghuang.
"Lord Chenghuang, Liu Shimin brought it. ”
The mansion is like a county government in the world, there are ghost officials in it, and there is a middle-aged man wearing a vermilion official uniform, with a huge body, like a statue of a god in the temple, and there seems to be a breath of incense gushing out between the breaths, enveloping the entire City God Temple.
"Liu Shimin, where is it?" Guo Beichenghuang's voice was loud, echoing in the lobby.
Liu Xianling stood in place in a daze, still at a loss.
"Lord Chenghuang, Liu Xianling seems to have an incomplete soul, and he is less detained. When the ghost saw this scene, he immediately gave up.
Chenghuang pinched his fingers and immediately smiled: "The person who cut off his head is called Wu Fei, he used to be an executioner, he used two knives when he killed Liu Shimin, the first knife slapped away Liu Shimin's soul and soul, and the second knife cut off his head, this is a common means of beheading for executioners, what I am afraid of is that the person who was killed will turn into a ghost in the future to seek revenge on him." ”
"Go and detain the rest of his soul, otherwise he won't be able to reincarnate, so let's take it down first. ”
"Yes, Lord Chenghuang. The ghost answered, and pulled the soul of this Liu County Commander down,
County Magistrate Liu's body shook and followed behind, and it was clearly visible that a scarlet mouth was exposed on his neck, and blood was still oozing out.
Guo Beichenghuang immediately opened the book in his hand at this time, but saw that Liu Shimin's position had been outlined by the Zhu pen, but at the end he licked it again: The blessing is exhausted, the crime is extremely evil, and he will be reincarnated as a dog in the next life.
And above Liu Shimin, the name of Wang Shenpo is also on it.
I saw a line of small black words annotated below: Hit hell, never be reborn.
Two days have passed since Liu Xianling's death.
In the past two days, this matter has been spread in Guobei County.
There are all kinds of voices talking.
During this period of time, the Li family was closed and lived in a shallow state.
"The play is going to be performed in its entirety, and I ordered Wu Fei to kidnap my father, so as not to be caught by others and continue to make a fuss about this matter. In the lobby of the Li family, Li Xiuyuan sat on the main seat and said calmly: "Tieshan, order two teams of guards, and bet 100,000 taels of silver to go to Wangchuan Mountain with me." ”
"Two days have passed, and it's time to pick up my father. ”
"Yes, the eldest young master, the small ones will be arranged. Iron Mountain replied.
"Steward Li, you have been working hard for the past few days to continue to take care of the house. Li Xiuyuan said again.
"Don't worry, the old slave should do his best. Steward Li replied.
The real inside story of Liu Xianling's killing, there are very few people in the Li family who know about it, only Steward Li and Tie Shan.
These two people are loyal to the Li family and are not worried about leaking out.
As for outsiders, even if they suspect that the Li family did this, so what?
The person has been killed, and there is no proof of death, Li Xiuyuan also wiped out all the relationships, after all, Wu Feiye of Wangchuan Mountain is indeed a robber.
It's just that a few years ago, Li Xiuyuan sent people from the dart line to take down this group of robbers in Wangchuan Mountain.
Under the lure of Xu Yili, Wu Fei surrendered with his subordinates and merged into the dart game.
But not on the surface, but secretly.
In fact, he was still a robber on Wangchuan Mountain, but he didn't rob his house anymore.
The reason for this arrangement is that Li Xiuyuan is afraid that one day the Li family will do something dishonorable and need to use Wu Fei's place.
"Let's go. ”
After some preparations, Li Xiuyuan sat on a thousand-mile horse, led a team of men and horses, and escorted 100,000 taels of silver from the mansion.
In order to finish this last scene, he had to go to Wangchuan Mountain in person.
As for the 100,000 taels of silver, it was just a turn around and back to the Li family.
Li Xiuyuan rode on a horse, but after experiencing this incident, he was full of emotion in his heart.
"People in the world say that demons and monsters are terrible, but what is even more terrible is the human heart, and the demons eat people and are retributioned by heaven, but the people's hearts are in turmoil, so who cares? The laws of the imperial court can only control the common people, not those who live in temples. ”
While thinking about it, the convoy was gradually about to drive out of Guobei County.
"Look, it's the Li family's convoy, and it's the Li family's eldest young master who leads the team, where are they going?"
"Idiot, I don't know yet, the eldest young master is going to Wangchuan Mountain to ransom people, won't you know that Master Li was kidnapped by Wu Fei, a thief from Wangchuan Mountain, and I saw that there were no ten big boxes, all of them were ransom silver taels. ”
"So much money, I'm afraid it's no less than 100,000 people, eh, in the end, all this is the dog official's harm, if it weren't for his county, how could there be such a thing. ”
The people of Guobei County discussed, and their hatred for Liu County's dog official deepened, and they began to sympathize with the Li family's plight.
Li Xiuyuan's face was calm and unmoved, although he used some conspiracy and tricks, but when he really said it, he was just presenting the truth to everyone.
There is no right or wrong, free and fair.
The convoy drifted away.
By the evening, he had already left the boundary of Guobei County.
"Tieshan, go and take two people to see if there are any villages around here, there is no post station, we are getting late, let's find a place to settle down first, and then we will go tomorrow." Li Xiuyuan said.
"Yes, young master. Tie Shan ordered the two of them, and immediately rode away quickly.
Soon, they were back.
"Young Master, there is a village three miles ahead. Iron Mountain said.
"Very good, while going there to stay. Li Xiuyuan said.
When the convoy reached the entrance of the village, a young man who was covered in tatters and looked like a beggar suddenly rushed over and stopped the mount of Tieshan in front.
"I have a mirror here, please, can you let me take a look?" said the beggar boy, looking haggard, and stopped in front of his war horse and pleaded.
He was holding a quaint bronze mirror in his hand, which seemed to be some years old.
"Phew. ”
Tie Shan's face changed, and he hurriedly grabbed the war horse.
"Boy, you're too reckless, just stop the horse, if you don't get it, something will happen. ”
"Please, uncle, let me take a look at this bronze mirror, just take a look. The beggar boy was not afraid of the war horse in front of him at all, but just begged Tie Shan and the others to take a look at the bronze mirror in his hand.
Li Xiuyuan rode over curiously at this time: "What happened to Iron Mountain." ”
"Back to the young master, the little one doesn't know, this young man stopped my horse and asked me to take a look at the mirror in his hand. Tie Shan also looked puzzled.
Li Xiuyuan turned over and dismounted: "Little brother, why do you want to stop us people and ask us to look in the mirror?"
When the beggar boy saw Li Xiuyuan leaning over, he hurriedly took the bronze mirror in his hand and took a picture of him.
But something strange happened, there should have been a shadow of someone on the bronze mirror, but after Li Xiuyuan took a photo, there was no shadow, and it was empty.
"Huh. Li Xiuyuan was also curious when he saw this.
This bronze mirror is not ordinary.
The beggar boy suddenly looked a little lost, and then looked at the bronze mirror at the others like crazy.
But it's strange to say that the others are shadows on the bronze mirror again, but the beggar boy is still very lost.
"I'm a big man looking in the mirror, and I'm going. One of the guards glared at him impatiently and shouted.
Li Xiuyuan saw this, but he became even more curious.
The beggar boy seemed to be looking for someone in a mirror.
