My master is invincible

Chapter 2069

Upon hearing this, my first reaction was that Wu Keyong was dazzled.After all, Chen Zhongguo had worked as a coffin bearer for so many years, so it was impossible for him to do anything that was not good for the deceased.

But, the next second, I was a little dazed, and my eyes were fixed on Chen Zhongguo.

However, Wu Ke grabbed Chen Zhongguo's wrist with one hand, and a small knife was exposed in the palm of Chen Zhongguo's hand.

It is said to be a small knife, but in fact it is more like a child's toy.

However, even if it is a toy, its material is solid iron, about three centimeters in length, so it is hard to find if you don't look carefully.

As soon as I saw the knife, my heart sank like iron, and my face sank.

As we all know, whether it is encoffining or wiping the corpse, it is generally taboo to have a murder weapon, especially the murder weapon on the person carrying the corpse.

Chen Zhongguo seemed to sense that my expression was wrong, and quickly explained: "Palace Master, I...I...I forgot."

kindness?
forget?

In an instant, my affection for Chen Zhongguo dropped to zero.

If it is a common thing, forget that there may be this possibility.

However, carrying the corpse into the coffin is a major event, how could it be forgotten.

There is only one explanation.

That is, he did it on purpose.

He deliberately held a knife in his hand with the purpose of spoiling the funeral.

I guessed this way, not without a reason, that is, the death of his son Chen Haobei was more or less the reason for Jiang Xiaoyan, even if Kong Wei deliberately framed him, Jiang Xiaoyan still couldn't escape responsibility.

and many more.

I suddenly thought of a person, and that was Kong Wei.

In the morning, I got Kong Wei here, and when I came back later, I didn’t find Kong Wei, but because of some trivial renovations, I kept forgetting about Kong Wei.

At that moment, without any hesitation, I looked at Zhuge Sijin.

When she saw my eyes, she guessed what she was thinking, and immediately came over and whispered in her ear: "He said...he knows some secrets about Chen Zhongguo, but he needs to hide. My dad thinks it's true, so let him hide up."

kindness?
Kong Wei knew Chen Zhongguo's secret.

I frowned and whispered, "Where is he now?"

She turned her head slightly, glanced to the left, and whispered: "It's on the left."

Seeing this, I glanced to the left meaningfully, and saw no one at all, but I felt that what Zhuge Sijin said might be true.

What I can't understand is why Kong Wei made this choice at this time.

It really baffles me.

According to ordinary people's thinking, Kong Wei should be more sad than dying at this time.

However, he said at this moment that he knew Chen Zhongguo's secret.

For a while, I was a little uncertain about his thoughts.

Just when I was dazed for a while, Chen Zhongguo whispered to me again, "Palace Master, I really didn't mean it."

I suppressed the anger in my heart, smiled slightly, took the knife from his hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I believe you didn't mean it."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Zhongguo obviously didn't believe him, and asked in confusion: "Palace Master, do you really believe me?"

I nodded, "Why don't I trust you? If I can't trust you, who else can I trust?"

He still seemed to disbelieve me, tightened his grip on the body behind him, and said falteringly: "Master, I will pay attention next time, and this will never happen again."

Before I could speak, Lao Liu next to him spoke up, and he reprimanded: "Zhongguo, you are really serious. After working as a coffin bearer for so many years, how could you make such a low-level mistake!"

"I...I..." He faltered a few words, but didn't continue.

I gave up and said with a smile: "Okay, don't talk about it, hurry up and carry Jiang Xiaoyan's body to the village."

Without saying a word, Chen Zhongguo nodded quickly and said: "Okay, everything is up to the Palace Master."

I glanced at him meaningfully, and said with a light smile, "Master Chen, there shouldn't be any lethal weapons like knives on him, right?"

When Chen Zhongguo heard my words, his whole body trembled, and he quickly said: "Palace Master, I swear in the name of the coffin bearer..."

Before he finished speaking, I quickly interrupted him and said, "I'm just kidding you, don't take it seriously, let's go, I believe you."

That Chen Zhongguo didn't speak anymore, but kept staring at me, while Old Liu stared at Chen Zhongguo with a sullen face.

Just like that, the whole scene was silent for about ten seconds, Lao Liu spoke, and he said to me: "Palace Master, don't worry, if there is anything harmful to the deceased on him, my Lao Liu will be the first to beat him." Break his legs."

"Okay! I believe that the coffin bearers here are all people with conscience." I nodded, raised my hand slightly, and waved to the two of them, meaning that they could carry Jiang Xiaoyan's body back to the village. .

Chen Zhongguo was stunned, bowed his head slightly, and stopped talking, and walked into the village. The old Liu looked at me, smiled awkwardly, and followed immediately.

Looking at their backs, I always had a faint smile on my face, and I didn't speak.

Gradually, their backs were farther and farther away from my sight.

After their backs disappeared completely, I couldn't help it anymore, I raised my hand and punched the big tree next to me.

From the moment I saw the knife in Chen Zhongguo's hand, I was already furious, but I didn't dare to get angry, so I had to bear it in my heart.

But at this moment, I couldn't bear it anymore, and punched hard.

Perhaps it was because of too much force, and there were bursts of piercing pain in the fist, and the whole big tree shook a few times, and the leaves rustled.

"Chen Jiu!" Zhuge Sijin leaned over and asked in confusion, "Then Chen Zhongguo obviously did it on purpose, why do you still believe him?"

I glanced at him, but before I could speak, Wu Keyong next to me spoke, and he said softly: "Little girl, you don't think about the problem as far as Xiaojiu. If he didn't choose to believe him just now, what do you think? How will things turn out?"

"How?" Zhuge Sijin asked hurriedly.

"It's going to be particularly tricky. Don't forget where this is? This is Chen Zhongguo's territory, and Xiao Jiu and we are both foreigners. If there is a conflict, who do you think the people who stood by Chen Zhongguo before will help? "Wu Keyong shook his head and sighed.

"It's impossible to help Chen Zhongguo, right?" Zhuge Sijin looked in the direction where Chen Zhongguo and Lao Liu left.

"Hehe!" Wu Ke sneered and explained: "Little girl, you think the problem is too simple. Based on the reaction of the old Liu just now, if there is a conflict between Xiao Jiu and Chen Zhongguo, he will be the first Time is on Chen Zhongguo's side, even though Xiao Jiu is the palace lord of the coffin bearers in the whole south, the result is still the same."

"Why! They are all coffin bearers, shouldn't they obey the orders of the Palace Master?" Zhuge Sijin stared at Wu Keyong suspiciously, his eyes full of disbelief.
