I become a god in another world

Chapter 163

There was a look of panic, embarrassment, and fear on everyone's face, as if they wanted to escape, but there was also a faint ferocity that seemed to cover up the scandal after someone's privacy was spied on.

Uncle Kuai Liu's expression also changed from white to green, from green to red, and finally he forced himself to calm down:

"Could it be that your Excellency is here for the Kuai Zhuang Family?"

Zhao Fusheng claimed to be from the Demon Suppression Division.

In the Han Dynasty, the Suppressing Demon Division had a high status, but it could not be controlled by a mere village chief of Wulidian Village.

The Demon Suppression Department specializes in ghost cases, and Zhao Fusheng came here with a clear purpose. She also specifically mentioned the existence of 'Zhuang Laoqi', which proved that she was already aware of the scandal that happened in Kuai Liang Village before she came.

"Kuaizhuang family?" Zhao Fusheng responded with a smile, then turned his eyes and fell on Liu Shuniang, knowingly asking:

"Which Kuai Zhuang family is the Sixth Uncle referring to?"

Her rhetorical question immediately angered several of Kuai Liushu's sons. They couldn't control their tempers, stood up quickly, pointed at Zhao Fusheng and shouted:

"Keep your mouth clean!"

Fan Wujiu's bad temper could not tolerate anyone pointing at someone from the Demon Suppression Division. He also stood up:

"So what? You dare not answer the adult's question? Do you want to fight?"

Wu Shaochun also unfolded the hot handkerchief in his hand and twisted it into a rope, assuming a defensive posture.

Uncle Kuai Liu suddenly sighed:

"Say less than a few words."

He first greeted his son, then signaled the angry villagers with his eyes, then looked at Zhao Fusheng and said:

"Since you are here, sir, you should have a clear understanding of what happened in our village. If you have something to say, please speak it out. Why would you say it in such a way to hurt others?"

Zhao Fusheng sneered:

"You caused ghost troubles and caused the death of innocent people. You don't feel guilty about the matter where human lives are at stake, but you blame me for speaking harshly? It's really strange."

"..." Her words made Uncle Kuai Liu look guilty on his face. Uncle Liu held her grandson in her arms and sobbed after a long time:

"What an injustice, what an injustice."

The other people in Kuai Liang Village had different expressions. Zhao Fusheng glanced at them one by one. They avoided her sight and remained silent.

After a while, Uncle Kuai frowned and broke the silence:

"Sir, this matter should not spread to other villages. Zhuang Laoqi - I mean Zhuang Shouqiang, how did he know?"

He moved a low stool and sat on it, his knees slightly apart, with worries and confusion in his eyes.

But since he took the initiative to speak, he must be willing to bring up this ghost case. Zhao Fusheng had dealt with Zhuang Laoqi and knew that these people would be tight-lipped when it comes to the reputation of women in the village.

Now Uncle Kuai Liu has figured it out on his own, which is a good thing.

Zhao Fusheng speculated on Uncle Kuai Liu's intentions and said:

"When Zhuang Laoqi was joking with his cousin, the two fell out -"

She briefly mentioned the commotion caused by the fight between Zhuang Laoqi and Gou Si, and then asked bluntly:

"He mentioned that a ghost case occurred in Kuai Liang Village and it was caused by a lynching in the village. Is this true?"

When Zhao Fusheng asked this question, the villagers looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.

Uncle Kuai Liu frowned and said nothing.

He is the leader in the village, and everyone is peeking at his face.

If you want to get clues to the ghost case, you must first pry open Uncle Kuai Liu's mouth.

Zhao Fusheng is not afraid of dealing with living people, but there is something strange in Kuai Liang Village. She is worried that the people in the village may have died long ago. The villagers she sees in front of her may not be real. They are most likely hallucinations caused by the influence of the ghost realm. .

She was thinking about something in her mind, and her eyes fell on Uncle Kuai Liu:

"To tell you the truth, ghost cases are getting more and more serious, and many people will die by then!"

Zhao Fusheng's tone was stern.

When he mentioned 'many people died', Uncle Kuai Liu moved his lips and his expression changed slightly.

Zhao Fusheng saw his expression and added:

"Now something has happened in Zhuangjia Village, across the river from Kuailiang Village."

As soon as she mentioned Zhuangjia Village, Liu Shuniang couldn't sit still.

"Did something happen to Zhuangjia Village?" She hugged her child tightly, using her young grandson as her spiritual support, and asked helplessly:

"Where are my brothers and sisters from my mother's side?"

"Nothing."

Zhao Fusheng realized that Liu Shuniang might be a breakthrough, so he simply turned to look at her:

"When we came, we first went to Zhuangjia Village. There was only an abandoned and empty village left there, with no one alive in the village."

The other villagers who followed Kuai Liushu's house immediately exploded, with a look of panic on Liushu's face.

Everyone was talking about it. Uncle Six's thighs were tense, and he subconsciously lifted his butt off the stool. He half stood up and asked:

"Where are the people from Zhuangjia Village?"

"I don't know where the person is, but based on my experience, if someone is involved in a ghost case, there is a high probability that something unexpected has happened." Zhao Fusheng said bluntly.

"How is this possible?" Others were a little disbelieving and whispered among themselves. Kuai Mancai also poked his head in from outside the house:

"There are more than 100 people in Zhuangjia Village, how could they all die?"

"To be honest with you, something strange did happen in our village, but, but this is not right." Uncle Kuai Liu couldn't sit still when he heard that something happened in Zhuangjia Village and more than a hundred people died:

"Our village has been sealed off since the accident. How did the news get out? Are you trying to trick us?"

Zhao Fusheng shook his head:

"There's no benefit in lying to you."

She could see that the news she brought greatly stimulated the villagers of Kuai Liang Village, so she simply said bluntly:

"Zhuang Laoqi told the story of the ghost case that happened in Kuai Liang Village. He said that you privately tortured and executed his cousin, which caused his cousin to die in silence, and then the ghost revived, right?"

This is a scandal.

When the death of Lady Zhuang Si was mentioned, the others immediately fell silent again.

Uncle Liu cried softly.

Something happened to her family, which obviously made it difficult for her to keep quiet.

The old wife's cries stimulated Uncle Kuai Liu's nerves. He gritted his teeth and suddenly admitted:

"Yes."

As soon as he spoke, the others suddenly became anxious:

"Uncle Six——"

"Stop talking!"

Uncle Kuai Liu shouted:

"There's something going on in Zhuangjia Village. How can so many lives be important in our little scandal? Now there's just something happening in Zhuangjia Village, not necessarily dead people."

He was able to control the situation at the critical moment. As soon as his words fell, the person who was about to speak suddenly froze and did not dare to say anything.

"You want to see people when you are alive, and you want to see corpses when you die. If the bodies of the people in Zhuangjia Village are not found, they may still be alive. What are you hiding at this time? As long as people are alive, what does it matter if they are embarrassed? Face can be earned again in the future. If Zhuangjia Village If someone dies, even if I die, I will never have the face to see my ancestors!"

Uncle Kuai Liu spoke sonorously and forcefully.

After scolding the villagers, he turned to look at Zhao Fusheng:

"Sir, how did he know about this? The news has never been spread."

"This has to be said a strange thing."

Zhao Fusheng turned to look outside the room, and his eyes fell on Kuai Mancai who poked his head in.

"Full of wealth?"

Uncle Kuai Liu caught her eyes and then greeted:

"Mancai, come in."

He recalled that when the two parties met, Zhao Fusheng and others were very concerned about Kuai Mancai's name. Fan Wujiu even said that Kuai Mancai was dead, which almost caused a conflict between the two parties.

At that time, Uncle Kuai Liu thought that this group of people were deliberately stirring up trouble. Now that a ghost case was involved, Uncle Kuai Liu realized that the problem might not be as simple as he imagined.

The room was packed with people.

According to Kuai Mancai's seniority, he was not qualified to enter the house, but the situation was special at this moment. As soon as Kuai Liushu called him, he came in immediately.

"Man Yin, go and call your second uncle, third uncle, and fifth uncle." After Kuai Sixth Uncle called Kuai Mancai into the house, he ordered another young man standing outside the door.

The young man looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old and didn't talk much. When he heard Uncle Kuai Liu's instructions, he nodded and ran out. After he left, Uncle Kuai Liu said:

"This is Kuai's boy——"

After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Zhao Fusheng would not know who Kuai Da was, so he explained:

"Kuaida is the uncle of the fourth mother-in-law you mentioned."

He pondered for a moment and explained:

"Kuaida is the son of Kuai Juming, and Kuai Juming is my cousin who has not yet released the fifth server."

The kinship relations in Kuai Liang Village were complicated. At this time, Kuai Liushu was upset and did not explain the leisurely relationship between the two sides in detail, so he only gave a general outline.

Zhao Fusheng nodded to express his understanding.

He continued:

"My cousin had a hard life. He gave birth to five sons and three daughters. The daughters were married off early, but the sons had to spend money when they became adults. In his early years, he suffered a lot of frustrations in order to find wives for his five sons."

Uncle Kuai Liu mentioned this cousin with a hint of emotion in his tone:

"Your Excellency already knows that our village is rich in perilla, but in addition to perilla, our village also goes to the river to fish for fish every year."

As the saying goes, you can rely on mountains to eat mountains, and you can rely on water to eat water.

The river along Kuai Liang Village has given birth to the people on both sides of the river. Every autumn and winter, the villagers also go down to the river to fish with nets. If they are lucky and catch a lot of fish, they will sell a large part and each family will share one. Every family's life will be better during the Spring Festival.

"My cousin works hard. They and his wife harvest the most baisu every year. They work hard and the first four sons have all found wives."

At this time, Zhao Fusheng had determined the identity of the evil ghost, so he naturally wanted to understand the life of Mrs. Zhuang Si and then figure out the ghost's killing rules.

But for some reason Uncle Kuai Liu started talking about Kuai Juming. She did not interrupt, but thought about it and followed Uncle Kuai's words and asked:

"What is the character of the four daughters-in-law we found?"

With Zhao Fusheng's intelligence, he could naturally guess that Kuai Juming was the father-in-law of the Fourth Lady Zhuang.

This can be regarded as the environment in which Mrs. Zhuang Si once lived. Perhaps the relationship between the sisters-in-law was also the reason why the evil ghost revived after her death.

Uncle Kuai Liu heard her question and said without hesitation:

"These four daughters-in-law are all very good. They work hard and endure hardships. They are harmonious to each other and are filial to their parents-in-law. They never quarrel or blush with each other. They are very considerate."

Such an answer was beyond Zhao Fusheng's expectation.

She stared at Uncle Kuai Liu with some suspicion, obviously not trusting his words.

Zhang Chuanshi didn't believe it either. He put his hands in his sleeves and said with disbelief:

"How can such a good thing happen?"

"Really!" Uncle Kuai Liu increased his voice.

"it is true."

Uncle Liu, who was holding her grandson at the side, also echoed, crying and saying:

"Although we are not in the fifth server, we are not full cousins. What is the benefit of telling these lies?"

She sniffed and wiped her eyes:

"My cousin-in-law is really nice, but it's a pity that she has a bad fate."

Uncle Kuai Liu was silent for a moment and then said:

"The first four sons married wives, and the remaining Kuai Wu was still single. The couple began to worry about this son's marriage."

Kuai Wu is much younger than his brothers, and he is the oldest child of the couple.

By the time he came of age, Kuai Juming and his wife were already quite old.

"Ten years ago, when I was returning home from farming one evening, I met my cousin digging in the field and chatted for a few words. He told me that when the fifth son of his family gets married, the couple will be able to let go of their heavy heart. , live your life well.”

This couple is hard-working and capable, and they live a very frugal year.

"My cousin was not yet sixty at the time, but he had white hair. He was much older than others in their seventies or eighties, and all his teeth were lost." Uncle Kuai Liu sighed:

"He said his children are here to collect debts."

Fortunately, there is only one son left among the five sons. No matter how hard the couple works, the hard days will soon be over.

"My mother-in-law is from the village of Zhuang. Your Excellency should know."

Uncle Liu Kuai changed the topic and suddenly turned to Uncle Liu's wife.

Zhao Fusheng nodded slightly:

"I heard from Zhuang Laoqi that after his cousin married to Kuai Liang Village, he later introduced his natal niece to marry Kuai Wu."

When she said this, she immediately dispelled the last trace of doubt in Uncle Kuai Liu's heart.

"Yes."

Uncle Kuai Liu responded.

At this moment, the topic finally turned to Madam Zhuang Si. Madam Six endured her sadness and said:

"My niece also has a hard life. Her father and my father are from the same mother. Her father has a bad temper, and the couple often beat her. She has never worn a new piece of clothing since she was a child."

The Fourth Lady of Zhuang grew up in hardships and became famous for her gentle and kind nature.

"That year, I took Changshun back to my parents' home and met this child." Uncle Liu wiped her tears:

"Changshun is my eldest grandson." She pointed to a young man standing at the door, and the young man nodded shyly.

"At that time, she was holding a baby, her eldest brother's son. After we met, we walked all the way back. When we passed by her house, her sister-in-law came out with a fierce look on her face and slapped her as soon as she came."

In fact, on the way from Kuai Liang Village, when Zhao Fusheng heard Zhuang Laoqi mention Zhuang Siniang's life, he already knew that Zhuang Siniang was not favored by her mother's family before she got married, and her life was difficult.

But when I heard Liu Shu Niang mention this past and learned that even Zhuang Si Niang’s sister-in-law could beat her at will in front of outsiders, she moved her eyebrows and asked:

"How old was she then?"

"You are a grown-up girl who is already sixteen or seventeen. You have grown up now and have dignity and self-respect. How can you slap someone in the face? Sir, don't you think so?"

When Sixth Uncle Niang mentioned the past events of that year, she sighed heavily:

"When I saw her beating someone, I was very surprised. I protected the fourth lady behind me and asked her sister-in-law how she beat someone. Her sister-in-law said that this girl stole an egg from her."

"It's just an egg, why can't you hit someone at will?" Wu Shaochun answered.

"My family is poor. Not to mention eggs, even the wild vegetables picked at home have a certain amount." Liu Shuniang sighed again:

"At that time, Mrs. Zhuang covered her face and cried softly. She said that she had not stolen anything. She had just come back from outside with her nephew and had not entered the house yet. How could she steal it?"

Mrs. Zhuang's sister-in-law thought she was just quibbling, chased her, beat her, and even pulled her hair.

In front of his son, he beat his sister-in-law until she cried.

Liu Shuniang quickly protected the person.

She was married at that time, and she was married to a well-respected sixth uncle from the relatively affluent Kuai Liang Village, who was also very respectable in her natal family. When she came forward, the eldest sister-in-law of the fourth lady Zhuang immediately stopped.

The two sides got into a quarrel over an egg, which eventually went to the head of the village.

"I will testify on behalf of the fourth lady. We met at the river and walked all the way back. She should not have time to steal the eggs."

But the sister-in-law of the fourth lady Zhuang insisted that a twist hen at home laid an egg two-quarters of an hour ago, but the egg disappeared. If the fourth lady did not steal it, then who stole it?

The crowd was noisy.

Later, after mediation by the village chief, they also asked Mrs. Zhuang Si's family members and determined that she had taken her nephew out to pick mulberry leaves half an hour ago and was not at home when the hens were laying eggs.

She couldn't match the time, and the egg was indeed missing. The sister-in-law was rolling on the floor, saying she wanted the banker to give her an explanation.

It was not the slack season at that time, and everyone had something to do in the morning.

Everyone's whereabouts could be told. Finally, after checking again and again, it was found that only Madam Zhuang Si's brother was at home during that time.

He was eleven or twelve years old at that time, and he was fooling around with several gangsters of about the same age in the village. He did not do his job properly and acted like a green-skinned hooligan, teasing cats and dogs. He was extremely annoying in the village.

Finally, Mrs. Zhuang's parents called him over, and he admitted that he had stolen an egg, thrown it into the stove and roasted it.

The whereabouts of the missing eggs were finally found, and the sister-in-law cried and demanded compensation from her parents-in-law.

The parents-in-law found this trivial matter embarrassing. They could not afford to offend their eldest daughter-in-law, who was fierce and fierce, and they were afraid that their youngest son would be ruined by stealing eggs. Finally, they blamed Mrs. Zhuang for being restless, feeling that she was unwilling to admit the crime, causing her younger brother to suffer. Got involved.
