If I add money to become a layman, I can cultivate immortality

Chapter 160 Black Rakshasa

The reversal of things made the people excited.

Many people, especially some scholars, and even some squires also united and asked the county government to severely punish the murderer and give justice to the Qin family.

In fact, they don't need to tell the county magistrate to regard this case as a top priority and handle it with great vigor.

Fixing the problem before it is too late is at least better than doing nothing.

In order to save face and make up for his mistakes, the county magistrate held a public trial for Liu and Wanshan while reporting the situation to the government office.

What is a public trial?Just let a crowd of people stand by and watch him try the case.

The Liu family and Wan Shan suffered countless tortures in prison, and their spirits almost collapsed. In addition, many people testified against the two, so the public trial went smoothly and the two confessed everything obediently.

Moreover, Na Wan Shan didn't know whether it was because of his conscience or for some other reason, but he even confessed another matter.

Zhang Sheng was strongly opposed to his affair with Liu, so this guy held a grudge and secretly added some tonic medicine to Zhang Sheng's medicine while Zhang was seriously ill.

It is a truth that many people know.

Regardless of whether Zhang Sheng died because of this, at least this guy pushed hard.

Upon hearing Wan Shan's explanation, Ms. Liu's eyes turned red with anger and she ran towards Wan Shan: "You beast, you actually killed my son, I will fight with you..."

In the end, Wan Shan sentenced him to beheading, and the Liu family was exiled for three thousand miles...

A woman like her, let alone being exiled for three thousand miles, would probably die on the way even if she was exiled for a thousand miles, and she would definitely be humiliated.

Of course, these are all for later.

A few days later, when it was dark, Ding Xiu was passing by a ruined temple when he suddenly heard a woman's scream coming from inside, followed by the voices of several men talking.

So, Ding Xiu walked in.

It turns out there's something really wrong inside...

Four men who looked like beggars were dragging a young woman about 26 to [-] years old. There were torn dresses scattered on the ground.

One of the beggars grabbed a piece of rag and stuffed it into the young woman's mouth.

The other one is taking off his clothes in a hurry...

Is there any need to say this?Any fool knows what these four beggars want to do.

"stop!"

Ding Xiu shouted loudly.

The four beggars were so complacent that they did not notice anyone coming in. They turned their heads one by one after hearing the sound of drinking...

At first glance, it turned out to be a man who looked like a scholar.

One of the beggars had a ferocious look on his face, widened his eyes and shouted angrily at Ding Xiu: "Get out!"

The young woman shed tears, blinked desperately at Ding Xiu, and made a series of "wuwu" sounds in her mouth.

Obviously, she was asking Ding Xiu for help.

"Tie this boy up!"

The beggar who was taking off his clothes before was probably the leader and gave instructions to his accomplices.

So, the two beggars immediately walked towards Ding Xiu quickly.

As a result, when the two of them reached out to catch Ding Xiu, Ding Xiu raised his hand and slapped them one by one, and his teeth flew out on the spot.

"Bang, bang..."

With two dull sounds, the two guys hit the wall hard, spit out a large mouthful of blood, twitched a few times and then became motionless.

I don’t know if he is dead or fainted.

The remaining two beggars were so frightened that they no longer cared about good things and fled towards the main hall leading to the backyard.

Ding Xiu didn't bother to pay attention to the other party, walked directly to the woman, knelt down, and took out the cloth stuffed in her mouth.

The woman burst into tears. She wanted to kowtow and say thank you, but now... she was really embarrassed to see others.

So he hurriedly picked up the torn dress on the ground to cover himself, then sat on the ground and sobbed: "Thank you so much for saving me."

The pear blossoms with rain are the most touching.

Ding Xiu has always been a man who loves flowers and jade. This woman looks like a flower and jade. Although her dress is torn, she looks like it is made of fine silk fabric. She must be the wife of a wealthy family.

So how could it be reduced to such a situation?

So, he couldn't help but sigh, and then with a thought, he took out a robe and handed it over: "Let's put it on first."

"This……"

The woman hesitated for a moment.

It's not that she rejected this dress, after all, her dress was torn and couldn't be worn anymore. She was just surprised, how did this dress come into being?I didn't see any packages or anything.

Ding Xiu shook off his clothes and put them on the woman.

"Thank you benefactor..."

The woman's tears couldn't stop flowing down again, and her heart was full of warmth and gratitude.

"By the way, how did you fall into the hands of those beggars?" Ding Xiu asked subconsciously.

When this was mentioned, the woman burst into tears.

After his emotions calmed down a bit, he started talking about his experience.

Why she fell into the hands of those four beggars, we have to start with her experience.

Her name is Ying Niang, and she married a wealthy man known as Zhao Yuanwai as a concubine at the age of 16.

Although Zhao Yuanwai was a little older, he treated her quite well. In the blink of an eye, for more than ten years, she had hardly suffered any anger in the Zhao family and lived a fairly comfortable life.

Half a year ago, she suddenly discovered that there were some changes in Zhao Yuanwai, but although she had some doubts in her heart, she never mentioned it to others.

A few days ago, it was Zhao Yuanwai's birthday. Zhao Yuanwai seemed very happy that day and drank a lot of wine.

Ying Niang and the maid helped Zhao Yuanwai back to the room. Then, she went to get hot water herself to wash Zhao Yuanwai's face and wipe his body.

Unexpectedly, when she returned to the room carrying water, she screamed in fright and the basin fell to the ground.

Because the person lying on the bed was not Zhao Yuanwai at all, but a big white dog.

This dog is very familiar to Yingniang. It is Mr. Zhao's beloved dog Laifu.When Ying Niang married into the Zhao family, Laifu was about three years old and in her prime.

Laifu is strong and has smooth fur. Although he is large in size, his personality is very docile and very understanding. He is not only liked by the officials but also by the servants in the house.

After being raised in the Zhao Mansion for more than ten years, Laifu has never bitten anyone.

Unfortunately, Laifu suddenly disappeared one day, and the servants in the mansion searched for him for several days but could not find him.

Officer Zhao even offered a reward of 100 taels of silver, saying that as long as anyone returned the blessing, he could receive the reward.

In the end it was fruitless.

At that time, Ying Niang cried for a while.

Now she suddenly saw Laifu lying on the bed and Zhao Yuanwai was missing, so Yingniang was naturally shocked.

Before she could recover, Laifu suddenly disappeared. Member Zhao sat up and scolded her with a dissatisfied look on his face.

At that time, Ying Niang couldn't think too much and stammered the reason.Officer Zhao even scolded her with a sullen face, saying that she had drunk too much and was dazzled by her eyesight. He also strictly ordered her not to tell anyone about it, so as not to make other people laugh.

At that time, Ying Niang didn't think much about it, she just thought she was really dazzled.

But afterwards, the more I thought about it, the more I became afraid.

She is not a brainless woman. When she connected a series of events, she even broke out in cold sweat...

"In the past, the slave family always felt that the master had some unexplainable changes. In short, they were very subtle changes that were difficult to explain clearly..."

"At first, the Nu family thought it was my own delusion, but later I recalled it carefully and found that this feeling happened not long after Lai Fu's inexplicable disappearance..."

"In addition, when Laifu disappeared, the master was not in the mansion at that time and went to visit friends in a neighboring county.

From that time on, the slave family felt that there seemed to be some subtle changes in all aspects of the master's life.

In the past, the master loved to read books, and he also liked to let his slaves stay with him, and sometimes he would read to his slaves.

But from that time on, although the master often went to the study, he always looked absent-minded and rarely read to the slave family.

But at that time, the slave family thought it was because the master was in a bad mood after losing his beloved dog.

But to say that he is in a bad mood, the master eats and drinks every day. He used to prefer fish and not much other meat, but later he said he was tired of fish and switched to eating meat, and he also liked to chew bones. …”

"There is another detail. My eyes were not very good before, but after I came back that time, my eyes were much better..."

"What's even more frightening is that since the Nu family accidentally broke the basin, the Nu family has noticed that his eyes... always have an indescribable horror... like a fierce light..."

"The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and I couldn't help but have a bold idea... so I escaped while he was out..."

Hearing this, Ding Xiu couldn't help but ask: "Are you saying that your suspicion is not that you are dazzled, but that Zhao Yuanwai is actually Laifu?"

Ying Niang cried and said: "Young master may not believe it and thinks that the slave family is just thinking wildly, but... but the slave family is really scared. There is always a feeling that the master may have passed away long ago..."

Ding Xiu smiled: "You are not thinking wildly, your feeling is right."

Ying Niang's eyes lit up and she said in surprise: "Young Master really believes in the Nu family?"

"Actually, from the beginning, I felt a faint demonic aura about you..."

Ying Niang was startled and said quickly: "Master, the Nu family is not a monster..."

"I know, what I mean is that there was a demon beside you, so there is a trace of demon energy left in you.

From what you tell me, the identity of Zhao Yuanwai is indeed suspicious. It is very likely that Laifu became a spirit, or he killed his master and became his master, or his soul seized the body and occupied the magpie's nest. "

"Poor master..." Ying Niang couldn't help crying again.

"So, you met those four beggars on the way to escape?"

Ying Niang choked up and said: "The slave family was panicking. It was already dark when they fled here. When they saw the lamps in the temple, they thought of going to the temple to hide. Unexpectedly, it was a ruined temple, and they met those four people again. Shameless guy..."

Thinking of her previous experiences, Ying Niang was extremely frightened.

"If the young master hadn't arrived in time, the slave family...the slave family..." Xiniang sobbed.

"Okay, it's okay. When daybreak, I will accompany you to the Zhao Mansion to check on the situation..." Ding Xiu stretched out his hand and thoughtfully wiped Ying Niang's tears.

Ying Niang's face was red with embarrassment, her heart was beating fast, she lowered her head and said thank you.

Unexpectedly, after a while, there was a sudden noise outside.

"Boss, that couple of bitches are still inside."

"Surround me up..."

"Yes!"

Outside, dozens of beggars came, some holding torches, some with sticks, and a few with knives in their hands.

The leader was a guy with a sinister face.

Just when a group of beggars were about to rush into the hall, Ding Xiu walked out on his own, while Ying Niang, wearing a loose men's robe, followed timidly behind him.

Although the clothes didn't fit her, they gave her a different kind of charm.

As soon as she walked out, the beggars' eyes lit up and they all swallowed secretly.

"Boy, I heard that you injured two of my brothers?" the leading beggar asked loudly.

Before Ding Xiu could speak, Ying Niang said quickly: "It's none of your business, it's your subordinates who were the first to molest the slaves."

Ding Xiu glanced at the beggars outside and frowned.

Because he discovered that these beggars were no ordinary beggars.

Before, he had discovered that the arms of the four beggars were all tattooed with a strange pattern that looked both human and inhuman. Unexpectedly, the dozens of beggars below also had tattoos of this kind of pattern.

This is not as simple as a coincidence, indicating that the other party is from the same organization.

It's not like Ding Xiu has never seen anyone from the Beggar Gang. The Beggar Gang doesn't have tattoos at all. Even if some beggars have tattoos, they are very few personal actions, or they have them before they become beggars. tattoo.

But this group of beggars all have the same tattoo, which makes them famous.

"You woman are talking nonsense. It was obviously you who spoke rudely and insulted our brothers first..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Arrest him first and then talk." The leading beggar shouted loudly.

"Yes!"

At that moment, several beggars rushed up with murderous intent.

"Don't mess around, we need to report to the official..." Ying Niang screamed in fright.

Ding Xiu took her hand and said with a smile: "Mother Ying, hold on tight."

Before Ying Niang could regain her senses, her body had already risen into the air...

The group of beggars saw Ding Xiu and two people suddenly flying up and quickly disappearing into the night sky, and they were all stunned.

After a while, someone finally came to his senses and said to the leading beggar with a panicked look on his face: "It's bad, boss, we seem to have offended an expert."

The leading beggar shouted in a stern tone: "Why are you panicking? We are protected by the envoy, what do we have to be afraid of?"

The so-called divine messenger in his mouth is named Sun Tianba. His name is quite domineering, and he is also recognized as a local tyrant. It is said that even the county magistrate does not dare to provoke him easily.

This Sun Tianba has had amazing strength since he was a child, and he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. A big sword made of black iron weighs four to five hundred kilograms. Let alone people, he can chop even huge rocks with one knife.

This guy likes to drag his knife through the streets. As soon as he hears the harsh sound, all the people will be frightened and hide aside.

Once, because a horseman from out of town did not get out of the way in time, Sun Tianba slashed with his knife, splitting the horse pulling the carriage in half, the carriage was also torn into pieces, and the stone slabs on the street were also smashed.

The groom was so frightened that he immediately fell to the ground and died.

In the end, the case was dropped.

The people in the city, including the wealthy businessmen, did not dare to provoke Sun Tianba, and even the government did not dare to provoke him.

Because everyone knows that Sun Tianba has a backstage.

Moreover, his background is not human.

Sun Tianba made a special trip to build a temple for his backstage next to his yard, called the "Rakshasa Temple". What was enshrined in the temple was a statue of a god with a dark body, a ferocious face, and a height of one foot.

And this so-called god is called Black Rakshasa!
