Chapter 484

After the official documents and evidence were sent to the Yamen of Fucheng, County Magistrate Xu began to feel uneasy, for fear that Liang Zhifu would reprimand him.

Seeing him walking back and forth, Master Tian comforted him and said: "My lord, don't worry, this matter is not your fault, and Liang Zhifu won't do anything to you because of it."

The County Magistrate Xu said with a mournful face, "Originally, as long as the adults in Beijing came to take over, the case of the water bandit would be closed. But at this juncture, something like this happened to the Zou family. It's really disappointing!"

Pointing in the direction of the Zou family, he said, "Who do you think this Zou family is? Not to mention Zou Youlian's numerous crimes, among the three sons, two of them have corrupt personal morals, and the last youngest son is dying. For such a big case before, did everyone in his family suffer from hysteria? Can’t they do something that normal people would do?”

County magistrate Xu hated the Zou family to death, and scolded the Zou family until they were spitting. Master Tian stepped back silently to avoid his saliva.

After the county magistrate Xu was comfortable with the scolding, Master Tian said: "Although Zou Youlian and his son are not as good as beasts, Zou Chengzu born by the Bao family is still good, at least he has not harmed anyone."

"Hmph." County Magistrate Xu snorted coldly, "Zou Chengzu is only seventeen years old, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future. Maybe he is the same as Zou Yuzhen. He is a guy who will not stop dying, and will kill people when he tries to die."

The county magistrate Xu has no good feelings for the Zou family now.

After hearing the words, Master Tian couldn't speak for Zou Chengzu anymore, and instead talked about the burning of houses and shops in the county.

"Two shops burned down, one clerk died, and four were injured. These dead and injured clerks were all servants of the Xu family. Mr. Xu said that the loss of his family does not need to be bothered by the county government. Let the adults take care of the house. That's it."

The Xu family is a well-known landlord in Tianfu County. They have a big business, and they won't hurt their bones if they lose two shops.

After hearing this, the county magistrate Xu praised the Xu family, and then asked about the situation at the house.

Mr. Tian said: "Seven houses were burnt down, fifteen people died and five were injured. Among them, there were eight charred corpses in Chang Laopeng's house in Liuye Lane."

The magistrate Xu hurriedly asked: "Are the seven people who died were middle-aged men? How are the other five injured?"

Master Tian replied: "Three are male heads, two are old people over fifty years old, and two are children."

"It's a crime." The magistrate Xu felt heartbroken when he heard it. There are three men who are in charge of the family. How will the three families live in the future?

Master Tian continued: "The five burnt ones are being treated at Doctor Zhou's home clinic... Doctor Zhou said that there are probably two more who will die."

"What?" County magistrate Xu stood up from his chair in shock: "Why? Didn't it mean that the heart and lungs were not choked by the smoke? Why can't we save him?"

Master Tian said: "Doctor Zhou said that the burnt flesh is difficult to heal and will rot. Once it rots, it will become a person."

He went to the Zhou Family Medical Center to see those burnt people, their wailing, and those white cloths soaked with blood. Now thinking about it, he is still breaking out in a cold sweat, what a pity.

The county magistrate Xu is not a doctor, and he doesn't know how to save people and treat injuries, so he could only sigh: "Let Dr. Zhou do his best to heal, and the county government will pay for the medicine."

After the county magistrate Xu finished the last half of his sentence, his heart was in great pain, but the money for the medical treatment had to be paid, as it was a matter of human life.

As soon as the pain was over, two yamen servants hurried over again and said, "My lord, Mr. Tian, ​​the people whose houses were burned came to the yamen wearing filial piety clothes and carrying coffins, and said they want justice from your lord!"

County magistrate Xu had a headache so bad that he wished he could faint on the spot, but he could only cheer up and take Mr. Tian to appease the victims.

He said all his saliva was dry, and let them look at Zou Yuzhen's body. In the end, he paid for it himself. One family gave ten taels of silver, and told them to go back and bury the dead first. If there is any news, they will be notified immediately, and it is good words that persuade the sufferers to go home.

When he returned to Houya, the county magistrate Xu almost collapsed from exhaustion, but instead of resting, he let two yamen servants help him to see Zou Youlian in the cell.

Zou Youlian has been imprisoned for so many days, and he has become so decadent that he is not a human being. When he saw the county magistrate Xu came to see him in person, he immediately said arrogantly: "I can make Mr. Xu Chongfeng come to see me as a prisoner with dignity. Prisoners deserve it."

"It's not your mother's fault!" County magistrate Xu was so annoyed by the Zou family's mess, he pointed at Zou Youlian and said, "I came to see you today to tell you good news, Zou Youlian, please listen to me." , your Zou family is extinct. Your most beloved Yaoer was so mad that he set fire to your Zou family, including your wife, your grandson, and your daughter. As for Zou Yuzhen, because of the bank notes he was carrying Too many, I was stabbed in the heart by one of my subordinates, and I died completely!"

After finishing speaking, County Magistrate Xu was very happy, and laughed several times comfortably, and the depression in his heart dissipated a lot.

Zou Xiancheng knew that there was a big case in the county these days, he just thought that the escaped water bandits came back to take revenge, and he was secretly happy for a few days.But now when he heard the words of County Magistrate Xu, he stood up in shock, and wanted to rush to the door of the cell, but was restrained by the shackles of his hands and feet, unable to rush over, and could only say in a daze: "The Zou family is dead..."

The county magistrate Xu said loudly: "Are they all dead, or were they set on fire by your own son and burned to death!"

After hearing this, Xiancheng Zou's eyes widened. After a long while, he spit out a mouthful of old blood, lay down and fell down.

The county magistrate Xu said to Bantou Yang: "Please come and show him the doctor, don't die, don't let him commit suicide, he has to live."

After all, he happily left.

Master Tian was afraid that something would happen to Zou Xiancheng, so he didn't leave, but waited for Dr. Zhou to come to see him and said that Zou Xiancheng would not die, so he was relieved.

Zou Xiancheng woke up after half an hour under Dr. Zhou's acupuncture.

But after waking up, Xiancheng Zou seemed to have been drained of energy, weeping silently, muttering in his mouth: "Jiang Sheng...you won...I will end up worse than you..."

He caused Jiang Sheng's family to be ruined, and he had no children in this life, and became a widow.And although he enjoyed wealth and honor for most of his life, his whole family died in the end, and he saw that the nine clans and six relatives would also be exterminated.

As soon as he finished speaking, Team Leader Yang was afraid that he would bite his tongue and kill himself, so he immediately covered his mouth with a cloth.

Both Bantou Yang and County Magistrate Xu have lost their minds. Xiancheng Zou will not commit suicide. Even if he ends up miserable, he is still greedy for the last moment of his life.

……

Uncle Bao took the brothers and sisters Zou Chengzu back to the hometown of Zou County Cheng, and asked the Zou clan to delete the names of the brothers and sisters Zou Chengzu, then picked up Bao's coffin and transported it back to Fucheng.

When passing by the county seat, he was terrified to learn of the serious case committed by Zou Yuzhen, and said in a cold sweat, "It's a good thing we came early, if we delay for another two days, Chengzu and Lan Hua will be burned to death." .”

When Zou Chengzu learned that Zou Yuzhen and gangsters had burned many people to death, he immediately asked Uncle Bao: "Uncle, let's go to the county government... I want to give away half of my mother's dowry as a gift to those who were burned. People's compensation."
