Chapter 1242

The boy's lips pressed tightly into a straight line. At first, he was still expressionless. But when Lily talked about the village, his expression became more and more ugly, which made Lily feel reluctant to ask again. But what should be asked was: "who killed all the people in the village?"

But the boy did not speak. His eyes were half down, avoiding the sight of the crowd. His hands were subconsciously clenched into fists, and his body trembled slightly.

Seeing this, Lily said again, "little guy, we are not bad guys. If you don't believe us, we can help you find the government... "

"No, no!" This time, the boy exclaimed excitedly. His face was white. He grabbed Lily's wrist eagerly, and his eyes were terrified.

Everyone looked at each other. Seeing the child's expression so excited, could you say

Ren Zinan frowned tightly, and his eyes fell on the boy's right hand holding Lily's wrist.

After four weeks of silence, Nangong Yue suddenly asked, "little brother, can you tell me your name?"

The boy raised his eyes and looked at Nangong Yue. He saw that he was fourteen or five years old, dressed in plain blue clothes and robes, but with noble spirit. The respectful expression of the other people around him was obviously in the direction of this handsome young man.

The boy hesitated for a moment, and finally said slowly, "my name is Cheng Zhe."

"Cheng Zhe," Nangong Yue said without any illness, "all the villagers here, as well as your parents and relatives, have been killed. Only you and this little sister survived. Since we have discovered this matter, we can't sit back and ignore it. We must report to the government. We can't allow such vicious bandits to roam in southern Xinjiang! If you don't want to, you must give us a reason, a good reason to persuade us. Do you understand? "

Nangong Yue looks dignified and looks directly at the boy. He doesn't regard each other as a child, but a peer who can communicate with each other. In other words, from the moment the village was destroyed, the child has lost the right to be an ordinary child!

The boy, Cheng Zhe, has his pupils shrinking and his lips trembling slightly.

Nangong Yue didn't force him again and waited quietly.

After a while, Cheng zhe finally raised his head. His right hand released lily, but his eyes became firm. He took a deep breath and said, "you can't sue the official. The people in Tu village are Yu county magistrate of Gangping town. " He was almost gnashing his teeth, and his eyes, as black as the night, burst out in an instant the light of hatred.

It's true Although all of them had guessed the possibility, they could not help but take a breath at the moment when they heard the truth.

Cheng zhe managed his thoughts and put the whole story together -

their village was called Chengjia village, and there was a mine cave abandoned for many years in the back mountain of the village.

One night more than half a year ago, there was a rainstorm, and the rocks near the mine cave collapsed. A villager accidentally found a silver mine near the mine cave and immediately reported it to the village head.

The whole village was shocked. Originally, the village head planned to report the matter to the government. However, human nature is greedy. Who is willing to let the hen lay golden eggs. A villager suggested that the matter should be kept secret and that the villagers would secretly mine the silver mine. This proposal immediately received more and more villagers' support.

From that day on, villagers began to secretly go to Houshan to collect silver mine from time to time. In order to hide the secret, although all the people in the village are rich in wealth, they are very low-key. They dare not wear expensive clothes, gold and silver jewelry, build new houses, and even more reluctant to leave the village

However, there is no airtight wall in the world. When a villager went to buy a hairpin for his daughter-in-law in the town, he was caught in the eye of the government's Yamen servant, and then brought disaster to the village.

Just a few days ago, Yu county magistrate appeared in the village with a group of Yamen servants. First, he denounced them for privately occupying the silver mine.

After all, the villagers were simple and honest villagers. They were cheated by the county magistrate, so they were not afraid. They only asked for leniency and confessed the secret of silver mine.

However, when the villagers who went out came back one by one in the evening, he took a group of Yamen servants to raid the village and killed all the villagers. However, Cheng Zhe and the little girl pomegranate escaped because pomegranate's mother hid them in the cellar.

At the same time, the room is quiet, and everyone is filled with righteous indignation, and there is a storm in the heart.

The county magistrate is a local parent official. He should have protected the common people well, but he was morally degraded. It's really chilling to do such an animal like thing.

Nangong Yue pondered for a moment and asked, "how far is that silver mine from here?"

Cheng zhe hesitated for a moment, but he still replied: "walk a mile or so from the back of the village to the south. There is a path to go up the mountain, and the mine cave is on the hillside..."

It can be inferred that there must be many other county magistrate's men guarding the mine at the moment.

People's expression is more and more dignified, especially Zhou Dacheng. They didn't bring many people on this trip. If they were found out by each other, it would be bad.

"The world "Childe," Zhou Dacheng said to Nangong Yue with his fist clasping, "do you want to go back to the post station first and then make plans?"Because he was afraid of going to outsiders, Zhou Dacheng asked very implicitly, which means whether to go back to the post station first and then send soldiers and soldiers to come here to arrest the prisoners and go to nagangping town to catch the county magistrate?

However, even so, Cheng Zhe is still slightly stunned by Zhou Dacheng's "post station".

Although he was not eight years old, he was still a man of half age. The children of poor families had been in charge of the family for a long time. Before the silver mine was discovered, most of the families in the village were barely short of food. For example, he had been sent to the town as an apprentice, but was brought back because of the silver mine. Although he stayed in the town for only a few months, he also heard a lot of things. For example, ordinary people can't live in this post station. It's an inn that only officials can live in.

That is to say, he and pomegranate's savior must not be ordinary people!

So, can these people avenge themselves, pomegranates and relatives?!

At the thought of this possibility, Cheng zhe was filled with emotion.

Half an hour ago, when he and pomegranate nestled in the cellar, he thought that they would die there silently. No one knew that they could only go to the hell with endless grievances to reunite with their relatives

Unexpectedly, when he was about to give up hope, there was news from outside. He decided to gamble. The person who gambled was not from Yu county magistrate, so he tried his best to throw out the pieces of porcelain in his hand

When he heard the creak of the cellar door opening and the stranger's accent, he knew that he had won the bet, and he gambled back two lives for himself and pomegranate.

But what he didn't expect was that he won not only their lives, but also the chance to pay blood debts for his family and all the villagers!

For a moment, Cheng zhe felt that his soft body seemed to have emerged again, and his heart, which was like ashes, ignited a spark of hope. He bit his teeth and got up quickly. Then he knelt on the cold ground with a plop, kowtowed and pleaded: "this childe, please make decisions for all the people in our village!"

He was busy and knocked with lily again.

All of a sudden, there was a sound of walking outside the house. Mo Xiuyu followed Mo Xiuyu and walked in quickly. He hugged nangongyue and Zhou Dacheng anxiously and said, "childe, Lord Zhou, there are six or seven people escorting two carriages to the mountain directly behind the village. His subordinates have ordered Chen Bei and Lu Hu to follow him to check. They look like yamen servants... "

"It's them! It must be the gang of dog thieves in Gangping town! " Cheng zhe opened his eyes excitedly, his eyes burst out with strong hatred, and his voice became hoarse because of his anger, "please make decisions for the grass-roots people and the innocent people in this village!"

He crouched humbly, his fists clenched together.

"Cheng Zhe, as long as what you say is true, I will make the decision for you." Nangong Yue said firmly, "get up." There is no room for such lawless and inhuman parents in southern Xinjiang!

Ren Zi Nanli helps Cheng zhe up. Zhou Dacheng and Mo Xiuyu exchange a look. They want to urge nangongyue to return to the post station. But before the words are spoken, another disordered footstep comes from outside the house. A tall guard strides into the room.

His face is so ugly that it makes people feel like they are cluttering.
