Chapter 707: cause

"You girl, you mean I'm a villain?"

Zhang Ruyi directly gave Wu Fu a note of bursting chestnuts, and then burst into a smile, feeling that it was a bit inappropriate for him to say it on this occasion.

In the past, she would have been scared out of her wits, but she is also a person who has faced life and death, and she is already very calm in the face of these.

"I'll keep talking, you two, be mentally prepared, don't cry."

Zhang Ruyi first gave Wufu and Li Haitang a vaccination to prepare them mentally.

"Ruyi, stop looking down on people!"

Li Haitang rolled her eyes. She can save people and kill people. It's not just once or twice. She has seen the dead, so what is there to be afraid of?

"At that time, I felt that a woman was calling me and telling me that she was under the bed."

At first, Zhang Ruyi felt that she was hallucinating and that there was something wrong with her ears. Then she woke up Lu Er and asked him if he heard the noise.

Lu Yuanqing fell into a dazed sleep, shook her head, turned over and hugged the quilt, and fell asleep soundly.

Later, Zhang Ruyi was also tired from tossing, she fell asleep without thinking too much, and she had a dream.

In the dream, there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, wearing an apricot-colored dress and holding an oil-paper umbrella in her hand, smiling at her.

Zhang Ruyi talked to her and wanted to hold her hand, but the girl kept backing away until she disappeared.

On the second day, the rain did not stop. After the coachman got caught in the rain, he caught wind and cold and developed a high fever. Lu Yuanqing wanted to ask a doctor to take a look, so he had to ask the old couple.

While chatting, the old couple talked about the situation of their own family. Their son joined the army at the camp in the north of the city and did not return for many years. Another daughter also disappeared.

"From the camp in the north of the city?"

Li Haitang took a sip of water and changed his position to hold the candle.

With hundreds of thousands of soldiers, finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Sometimes there is no news, but it is good news. Perhaps, the son of the old couple is still alive.

"Haitang, I felt that the old couple was very pitiful at the time. The son joined the army, the daughter disappeared, and there was no one to marry them."

Zhang Ruyi was in this mood, so I asked a few more questions.

That year, the old couple went to Beidi to inquire about their son, but it was inconvenient to take their daughter out, so they left her in the village.

After the old couple returned from the north, three months later, the daughter disappeared.

They asked the neighbors, but the neighbors said that her daughter had an affair with a poor scholar in the village, and the scholar eloped with his daughter.

This kind of thing is hard to talk about, and it's still elopement.

There was a poor scholar in the village, it was true, but he was not familiar with his daughter, how could he elope?

However, after they left for three months, something else might have happened.

The poor scholar is not from Peishui, no one knows where his home is, the old couple looks for people everywhere, and they have to face the rumors in the village, get angry and get sick all at once.

After recovering from illness, the two depended on each other for life, and no longer mentioned their daughter.

"The house you young couple live in belongs to my daughter."

After the old lady finished speaking, her eyes were red, and she eloped as soon as she eloped, and she didn't come back to see her parents for so many years, this child is cruel enough!

Zhang Ruyi felt that something was wrong, and when she returned to her room, she found an oil-paper umbrella falling out of thin air, exactly like the one that appeared in her dream.

"You don't know how evil it is, and I don't even know how the umbrella came out!"

Zhang Ruyi thought of her dream, and went to the old couple again, and talked about their daughter's appearance, which was exactly the same as in her dream.

How can two people who have nothing to do with each other dream of it? Thinking of that voice at night, "I'm here", Zhang Ruyi shuddered.

Moreover, the daughter of the old couple and the poor scholar did not meet at all, and no one in the village saw the two together. Where did the rumors of elopement come from?

Zhang Ruyi is hot-hearted and likes to meddle in other people's business. She bypassed the old couple's neighbors and ran to other people in the village, using the meat and rice as an excuse to gossip.

I went to several houses, and finally found that the rumors came from the neighbors of the old couple.

The villagers never paid attention to any evidence when they spoke, and they heard that the wind was rain, thinking that they lived not close and could not see it, so the neighbors must have discovered something.

As for the poor scholar, he lived in a broken hut in the village for a while, and then disappeared without a trace.

"On the way back, I ran into the old couple's neighbor again, and I became more and more sure that there was a ghost."

The man was in his thirties, his eyes were full of haze, and his body was covered with black linoleum.

However, Zhang Ruyi still did not flinch, and that night, she heard the same words again.

It wasn't just her, it was Lu's mother who slept with her, and Lu's mother also heard it and was very frightened.

"This is the death of a wronged soul!"

Lu's mother once heard that if an innocent soul cannot rest in peace, she will find someone with a similar aura, and then take her away and kill her to take over her class.

It seemed that there must be something wrong under the bed.

The inside of the house is covered with mud. After moving the bed, the area under the bed has obvious traces, which are different from the surrounding ones.

Zhang Ruyi spent money and asked some men in the village to dig a hole. Finally, in the hole under the bed, a rotten female corpse was dug up. Her hands and feet were covered with bones.

"Yes, this is my daughter!"

The old lady almost fainted from crying. On the foot of the corpse, there was a silver chain, which had been oxidized and blackened. It belonged to her daughter, that's right!

When the body was dug up, the crowd erupted immediately. It seemed that the girl had not eloped, but had been killed by someone!

Not only was he killed, but he was also buried under his own bed, which is really unheard of and unseen!

The old couple cried and thanked Zhang Ruyi, and then went to the county to file a complaint, begging her daughter to have a clean reputation. She was killed, not elopement!

At that time, Zhang Ruyi also went to testify. After hearing this, the Peishui county magistrate was amazed and attached great importance to the case.

He personally went to the village to investigate, and brought a lot of yamen servants, and also brought a gangster.

After an autopsy, it was proved that the person was strangled to death.

"The murderer is the neighbor?"

Wufu rolled his eyes, and through analysis, only the neighbor's family was the most suspicious, spreading rumors in order to keep the old couple from investigating.

The courageous people in the village came out to testify, saying that they once saw the neighbor's man climb over the wall in the middle of the night and went to the old couple's house

"That's right, that man. He conspired with his wife to kill the old couple's daughter. The reason is beyond your imagination."

Zhang Ruyi sighed, this time there was no trickery.

The man's mother-in-law is pregnant, exactly in the last three months, and she is about to give birth. The man can't stand it, so he wants to find a woman to have a good time.

His mother-in-law was reluctant to part with the money, and seeing that the little lady was alone next door, she became vicious and asked the man to **** her. Her eldest brother joins the army, and her parents are away, so who can make decisions for her?
