Chapter 23 The Village Chief Is a Demon? (seek collection, recommendation)

After a stick of incense, the messy ancestral hall became brightly lit.

But Zhao Si's body can be cleaned up, but those broken ancestral tablets cannot be restored to order.

"Village Chief, Li Kui is here." The burly Er Niu pulled Li Kui in and walked in.

When they were in front of everyone, Er Niu snorted coldly and pushed Li Kui hard, and Li Kui fell to the ground.

"Say, in front of the ancestors of the whole family, in front of the old compatriots of the same village, you tell everyone.

Why did you bring Wang Butou to the ancestral hall in the middle of the night? What is the matter? "At this time, Li Sanhuai was already filled with anger by tonight's turmoil.

The ancestral ancestral hall was defiled, the court officials were murdered, and there was no body left. Could it be that their Hegu Village was destroyed.

"Why don't you say it soon?" Li Sanhuai was even angrier seeing Li Kui lowering his head and hiding his secrets.

If he hadn't been concerned about the face of some villagers, he would have wished to slap this unworthy descendant to death.

"Say it soon?" Li Changchun on the side also pretended to be angry and yelled.

Li Kui raised his head and carefully glanced at his second uncle.

Seeing the look of hating iron but being filled with righteous indignation, I crazily praised my second uncle in my heart.

This acting skill made him admire, so he pretended to be calm and said.

"It's the village head. It was the village head who asked my nephew to bring Wang Butou in."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and the sound of astonishment continued.

The clan elders and young juniors in the village whispered to each other frequently, and looked at Li Sanhuai who was also astonished from time to time.

"You bastard." Er Niu, who was waiting in front of Li Sanhuai, saw that something was wrong, cursed angrily, went up and kicked Li Kui down.

"The village chief fell asleep at [-]:[-], why did you ever ask you to bring people to the ancestral hall.

Obviously it was you, the rogue, who told Genzi that Catcher Wang hijacked you to break into the ancestral hall and asked you to ask the village chief to bring someone to rescue you. "

"Have I ever threatened you?" Wang Hu, who was on the side, was furious when he heard this.

"It's clear that you came to the inn to call me at Haishi, unless you, an idiot, have notified your village chief before that?" Wang Hu said angrily.

"Still, this is the double reed performed by your Hegu village. If it is really the case, you will not be able to get away with murdering the imperial court official."

"My lord, please calm down..." Li Sanhuai hurriedly said upon hearing this.

"Everyone has their own explanations for this matter, and there may be other secrets in it. Didn't your lord just say that there are evil spirits making trouble? When the grass people call Li Ergen, you can find out when you ask."

"Hmph." Wang Hu snorted coldly, and stopped talking. Seeing this, Xiao Zhan on the side didn't intervene.

For a moment, the entire ancestral hall was as still as still water, only the candlelight flickered slightly, adding a bit of solemnity to the shadows.

Soon, the roots were passed on, and under the dignified eyes of all the villagers, the time and place of the request for help was announced to the public in just a moment.

"Nonsense, although I received the village chief's arrangement, I was dragged to drink on the way, and I didn't have time to call Wang Butou." Li Kui said with a look of grief and indignation, and then named a few people certificate.

Not long after, the witnesses mentioned by Li Kui arrived at the scene, and they all smelled of alcohol all over their bodies.

Everyone gasped after hearing this, unexpectedly someone pretended to be village chief Li Sanhuai and Li Kui at about the same time.

"If what the two of them said is true, there must be demons causing trouble in this matter." Li Sanhuai also suppressed the fear in his heart, and said to Wang Hu.

He never expected that the monster would take his appearance and kill the officers and soldiers.

"My lord, please investigate clearly and return justice to Hegu Village. In addition, I also hope that my lord can send someone to the county seat to ask for reinforcements from the county magistrate." When he said this, Li Sanhuai glanced at Xiao Zhan who was silent at the side.

This person was silent before, but now he suddenly appeared. I am afraid that the Yamen also has suspicions about Hegu Village, so I don't know if he came here for the sacrifice of the River God, or...

Thinking of this, Li Sanhuai looked at Li Changchun who was at the side, and said again.

"Where is Daoist Shen?"

"I have already sent someone to invite you." Li Changchun replied, "It's just a matter of the moment, how should we deal with it?"

"How to deal with it?" Wang Hu asked coldly after hearing the words.

"Since that monster dared to pretend to be the village chief to harm people, there must be some secrets to hide.

Although you and others ruled out the suspicion of Village Chief Li through words, before the matter is clarified, Li Sanhuai is guilty and needs to be supervised by us. "

"Ridiculous." Li Changchun slammed the table and said loudly.

"My Hegu Village is a benign place, and now there are demons harming people, this is the responsibility of your court.

Now that the River God sacrifice is coming, if the village chief can't come out to preside over it, what if the good time is delayed and the monsters harm people further? "

After speaking, Li Changchun coughed violently, with a flushed and weak look.

"Since that's the case, this matter will come to an end tonight, but the next thing Village Chief Li will do is to let me know." Seeing the sudden turmoil in the ancestral hall, Xiao Zhan said.

"Wang Hu, let's go."

"Wait a minute..." At this moment, Li Sanhuai suddenly said loudly.

"What else is there, do you still want to force me to wait?" Wang Hu said coldly, with a fierce intention of drawing his sword when there was a disagreement.

"The grassroots don't dare... what happened just now may be offending, the little people led the villagers to confess to the adults." Li Sanhuai stood up and cupped his fists to apologize.

"Caomin wants to say that since Lord Wang thinks that Xiaomin is suspected, I, Li Sanhuai, are willing to cooperate with him in handling the case, and I also hope that the court can help my Hegu Village get rid of this demon disaster."

"You don't need to tell me, I will do my best on this matter." Wang Hu said coldly, he walked away first, and Xiao Zhan who was on the side clasped his hands to Li Sanhuai, and then followed closely.

After the two left, the ancestral hall suddenly fell silent. After Li Sanhuai glanced at Li Changchun, he turned his attention to Li Kui again.

"Li Kui, did you really see that I asked you to call Catcher Wang?"

"Village Chief, Li Kui will never dare to speak nonsense..."

"If what Li Kui and Li Gen said is true, then who called Wang Butou?
When the corpse was just carried out, everyone could clearly see that it was definitely not a fake, and that Wang Butou was indeed seriously injured. Could it be that there are really demons sowing discord? "

"What to do, what to do, third brother, you have to pay attention as soon as possible, the people from the yamen died in the ancestral hall of our family, not to mention that it is unlucky.

If it can't be found out as soon as possible, the imperial court will definitely not let it go, not to mention, there are monsters... monsters are making trouble, this... what should I do? "An old man with a gray beard said tremblingly with the support of a young junior.

"What are you panicking about?" Li Changchun shouted.

"Second brother, I..." The old man hesitated to speak, finally sighed, shook his head and stopped talking.

"Second brother, don't be angry, and fifth brother, don't worry, right and wrong can be judged by themselves, and the court will definitely not be indiscriminate.

The most important thing right now is to find out the reason for tonight. As for whether it is a demon or not? "Li Sanhuai said, looking at Erniu.

"Let's go, accompany me to find Daoist Shen. Such a big event happened, but no one is there yet."

"What happened tonight, don't spread it to outsiders, especially about the monster becoming the village chief, let alone talk about it... Li Kui, come with me."

Watching Li Sanhuai and Erniu leave, Li Changchun left the ancestral hall with some people after speaking.
