Rise of Qinglian

Chapter 4 Confirming the True Murderer
Li Ermazi is forty-three this year, and he is the second in his family. Because his face is full of pockmarks, he is called Li Ermazi. His real name has been forgotten by everyone. Because of his ugly appearance and idleness, his family told him There are many marriages, and no family is willing to betroth their daughter to Li Ermazi.

After Li Ermazi's parents passed away, no one cared about him, and Li Ermazi acted even more recklessly.

Anyway, he was full enough for one person, and the whole family was not hungry, so he didn't have so many scruples in doing things. He was a well-known rascal in Wangjia Town.

More than [-]% of the people in Wangjia Town are surnamed Wang. Li Ermazi did not dare to provoke the female family members of the Wang family, so he extended his claws to orphans and widows with different surnames. The young and beautiful Xiaofeng was often bullied by Li Ermazi.

Li Ermazi has a wicked heart but no guts, and coupled with the constraints of the Wang family, Li Ermazi dare not mess around.

After Xiaofeng disappeared, the police asked Li Ermazi several times for questioning. Wang Changsheng asked about Xiaofeng, which caused Li Ermazi's discomfort.

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

Wang Changsheng asked three questions in a row, his eyes fixed on Li Ermazi.

People have three souls and seven souls. Normally, after a person dies, the three souls and seven souls will slowly dissipate. Xiaofeng's mother was starved to death and her body was burned. The chance of becoming a ghost is very low. Compared with Under the circumstances, the missing Xiaofeng has a greater chance of becoming a ghost.

If a person has resentment before death, and the body is thrown in a place full of yin, there is a high chance of becoming a ghost after death.

Xiaofeng is young and beautiful, if she is raped to death by a man, she must have resentment, and the chance of becoming a ghost is very high.

If Wang Changsheng guessed correctly, Xiaofeng must have been killed, so she 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 stand at noon and bought some bean curds to eat. As for my house, nothing strange happened. I just watched her take a bath. I didn't do anything else. It has nothing to do with her disappearance. .”

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

Hearing this, Li Ermazi became impatient like an ant on a hot pot, and argued: "Heaven and earth conscience! I, Li Ermazi, dare not even kill chickens. How dare I kill people? You can't put this dirty water in the water!" Splash on me."

"Hmph, you still dare to lie. The last time you ran to Xiaofeng's house in the middle of the night, if Xiaofeng hadn't yelled loudly, I'm afraid you would have ruined her. You must have killed Xiaofeng. Say it quickly, so as not to suffer physical pain." Wang Tianhu said fiercely.

When Li Ermazi heard this, his face turned pale, and he retorted: "Fatty black, you can't act recklessly. I, Li Ermazi, don't even dare to kill a chicken. How dare I kill someone. I was drunk that time. Xiaofeng, a girl Her eyes are over the top, maybe she ran away with that little boy, why should she put the shit bowl on my head."

A bullying rascal like Li Ermazi is most afraid of people in the government.

If he was really caught in the prison, he would definitely be beaten into a trick.

"Little boy? Who is this person? Tell me clearly."

Li Ermazi curled his lips and said: "A month ago, there was a young man surnamed Zhao who passed by here, that boy was white and clean, like a woman, I don't know what kind of candied dates that boy gave Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng was in the alley with him in the middle of the night, but I bumped into him, hum, a shameless woman, she pretended to be aloof in front of me, and she only knew each other for a few days, just cuddled in the alley, she didn't dislike me Have no money?"

"Does any of you know the origin of Mr. Zhao? Or have you seen him?" Wang Changsheng looked at Wang Qingyun and asked in a deep voice.

Wang Tianhu thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "Mr. Zhao? Is he bringing a book boy?"

"Then I don't know, but that little boy does have a schoolboy, young and rich, and a servant who takes care of him personally. No wonder that girl Xiaofeng takes a fancy to that boy."

"A month ago, several scholars who were rushing to take the exam passed by our Wangjia Town. Among them was a scholar surnamed Zhao. I had a deep impression on Mr. Zhao because of his generous spending, but I remember that when they left, they didn't bring any The female relatives!" Wang Tianhu doubted.

"Are you sure they didn't bring their female relatives with them when they left? Is there an error in the number?"

Wang Tianhu thought for a while, nodded and said: "I'm sure, the inn they stayed in was run by the grandson's family. Except for Mr. Zhao and the book boy, the other scholars were all alone. There were six people in total. They stayed for three days in total. They left It was in the morning, and it happened to be seen by my grandson, there were no more, no less, there were six of them, as for whether they took Xiaofeng with them on the way, my grandson didn't know."

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

"It seems that Mr. Zhao is suffering from a cold, or I brought a doctor for him. Mr. Zhao is sick and powerless. If Xiaofeng is killed, he should not be the murderer. He has no motive for committing the crime. "Wang Tianhu analyzed objectively.

"By the way, I remembered something. My family Wangcai was stoned to death. It's really fucking unlucky." Li Ermazi added.

"Is your 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 Ermazi was a little surprised, thought for a while, and said, "Wangcai was raised by my father. After more than ten years, his teeth are almost gone, and he can't bite anyone." , I didn’t tie it, but I don’t know what’s going on recently, it kept barking in the middle of the night, and I was so angry that I tied it to the woodshed. I found it this morning, it was stoned to death, no I know which wicked guy came to my house in the middle of the night and smashed Wangcai to death."

After hearing this, Wang Changsheng was sure that Xiaofeng was dead and turned into a ghost to harm people.

The dog is the animal of the most yang, and the corresponding twelve earthly branches and five elements are Xu soil, Shu soil is yang soil, ghosts belong to yin, dogs are born to restrain ghosts, Taoists often use black dog blood to drive away evil spirits, Xiaofeng turns into ghosts, looking for Li Ermazi took revenge, but as soon as she approached Li Ermazi's house, the black dog found her, and the black dog barked wildly.

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

Li Ermazi is not an idiot either. Seeing so many elders of the royal family gathered together, and thinking of the recent murder case, he asked nervously, "Wouldn't it be that murderer who killed Wangcai? Could it be that he was after me?" gone?"

Wang Changsheng shook his head and said: "No, the county government found a female corpse, and initially suspected that it was Xiaofeng. I came to you to confirm whether you were the murderer. Now that I have asked clearly, that Mr. Zhao has a big problem." The motive of committing the crime, you can go back, by the way, don’t publicize this matter to the outside world.”

Li Ermazi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find any flaws in Wang Changsheng's words, so he turned and left without thinking too much.

Even when Li Ermazi was killed, the murderer was not a human being, but a ghost.

"Qiu Xian, go and watch outside, and don't allow idlers to approach the ancestral hall. I have something to explain to everyone." Wang Changsheng ordered.

"Yes, Uncle Ninth." Wang Qiuxian replied, 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, please inform me that all clan members are not allowed to go out alone after dark, there are no young and strong people in the family, so move to a more young and strong one tonight." My family stays for one night, and there must be at least eight people in a family, and they have to be together when eating, drinking, and sleeping together. In addition, we must find a way to make this Li Ermazi sleep at home obediently tonight, and sleep as hard as possible."

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

"Have you heard what Uncle Jiu said? Go back and inform the clansmen, strictly follow Uncle Jiu's orders, and declare to the outside world that it is to strictly guard against murderers. You are not allowed to leak a word of what Uncle Jiu said just now. If anyone leaks it, it will delay you." Ninth Uncle will catch ghosts and punish them severely." Wang Qingyun looked at the other elders of the royal family and said solemnly.

'Yes, Sanbo. The elders of the Wang family agreed and left one after another.
