Dressed as a farmer's little blessing, the road to escape the deserted

Li Zhensheng asked again, "Are you sure, or someone in the town saw Mrs. Gong lying in the coffin with their own eyes? Is it possible that she is still alive?"

Both Li Fu'er and his wife raised their heads in surprise, and asked, "How does the boss know that Mrs. Gong is not dead?"

"What did you find?" Li Zhensheng asked without answering.

Li Fu's daughter-in-law hurriedly said: "Yesterday afternoon, we went out for a walk, bought some candy, and distributed it to the children nearby, trying to make a few words.

"The children said that the Gong family had a bad luck, and everyone in the family was dead. Later, when we went to the inn, we were stopped by a naughty boy. He said that the grandma of the lock was not dead. He saw it!"

Li Fu's daughter-in-law was afraid that his boss would not understand, so she explained, "Suozi is the baby name of the kid from the Gong family. They always play together. The kid said that he went to the back mountain to collect firewood and went the wrong way. I saw Suozi's grandma in the wooden house, and Suozi's grandma asked him for something to eat.

"He was terrified. He ran home and told about it, but the family didn't believe it. They said he had seen a ghost, and asked someone to burn him a talisman paper, forcing him to drink the talisman gray water, and never let him He went up the mountain!

"The two of us felt that the kid should be telling the truth. We wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, but we were afraid of attracting attention, so we wanted to go back and report the letter, asking the master to find someone to go up the mountain to have a look."

Li Zhensheng knew it well, so he told them, "Don't leave today, and go outside to inquire about it. There is a local ruffian named Liu who likes to lure people to the casino in Xindu.

"This bastard's cousin is in charge of the casino. Remember to ask what the name of this bastard's cousin is and what the name of the casino is. I'll take someone to the mountains first, and I'll let someone come back and tell you if there is anything."

"Yes, Master." Li Fu and his wife hurriedly agreed.

Soon, they pretended not to know each other and ate breakfast separately. Then, Li Zhensheng led his soldiers around and climbed up from the other side of Beishan.

At this time of year, the weather is cold, snow falls on the road and it is difficult to walk, and climbing is even more stumbling.

Fortunately, each family has run out of firewood for the winter. Beishan is not high, and there are no wild animals to hunt.

Therefore, the mountain is very quiet, and it is not difficult to find the only cabin for temporary accommodation.

The soldiers were cautious, leaving two to protect Li Zhensheng, and the other four slowly approached the wooden house, hid behind a tree and threw a stone at the wooden door, but there was no movement at all in the house.

A soldier leaned over, coughed, but still didn't respond, so he lay on the crack of the door and looked.

As a result, when he turned his head again, his face changed and he quickly retreated.

Li Zhensheng saw it from a distance, walked over, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

The soldier took a deep breath and replied, "My lord, there is indeed only one old lady in the room, but she is lying at the door, watching... she seems to be out of breath."

died?

Li Zhensheng hurriedly led people over, and the door of the wooden house was locked, but the guards took a dagger and pried it open, and the copper lock was opened without any damage.

The two wooden doors were pushed open from the inside out. Without the support of the brass lock, the wooden door suddenly opened wide, and an old lady fell out.

Wearing a blue brocade jacket, already dirty beyond recognition, with disheveled hair, she was lying on the threshold without making a sound.

A soldier raised his foot and turned the old lady over, and everyone gasped.

This can no longer be called a human being, it is simply a skinny humanoid firewood stick.

I don't know how many days of hunger, the old lady's face was ashen, her eye sockets were sunken, and the skin on her neck was sticking to the bones, as if her head would fall off if she touched it lightly.

Li Zhensheng silently calculated the date in his heart. According to Gong Yunshu and the inn boy, the Gong family held the funeral half a month ago.

That is to say, the old lady and her family nephew plotted against her grandchildren and were secretly brought out and hid here.

I'm afraid that from that day on, no one brought her food, and no one remembered to set her free!

What a fool!

Li Zhensheng really didn't know what to say, laughing at a dead person, he couldn't do it.

But these eight words have been echoing in his mind!

The old lady wanted to use her nephew to force her granddaughter to be an internal response, enter Li's house, pick up Li's house, and then kick her nephew away.

But why didn't she expect the end of seeking skin from a tiger?

After they have used her, they naturally have no intention of coaxing her.

As a result, at a young age, he lived a lifetime without worrying about food and clothing, and finally died of starvation here!

"Forget it, let's see what she has on her that can be used as a token. Take one and send it back to Suijintan for questioning to confirm the identity of this old lady. Go and come back!" Li Zhensheng said with a wave of his hand.

The soldiers hurried to work, and soon, a silver bracelet on the old lady's wrist was taken off.

Two soldiers rode back to Suijintan on horseback, closed the door, restored the wooden house to its original state, and guarded here.

The last two followed Li Zhensheng back to the inn. Li Fu'er and his wife had already inquired about the news.

"Boss, that ruffian surnamed Liu is very unpopular here. I heard that many people have been ruined by him. His cousin has never been to the town, but it is not difficult to inquire.

"His brother's surname is Bao, and the casino is called Siji Ruyi Casino. It's in the north of Xindu. It's not too big, but there are many people."

Li Zhensheng nodded, feeling more determined in his heart.

Because the place where Zhang Jin lured the villagers to gamble was the Four Seasons Ruyi Gambling House, and the manager of the casino that Zhang Jin was closely connected with was indeed Bao.

But since Wei Dajun was injured, the veterans of the Hou Mansion have been staring at the steward surnamed Bao, but they have not seen any unusual actions by him.

At first, I thought it was my family's overthinking, but now it seems that they just changed their strategy and found another way!

If it weren't for their family's vigilance, if it wasn't for the conscientiousness of the Gong family siblings who confessed early, maybe these people's schemes really succeeded.

That Gong Yunshu was not bad-looking, and he could read and write. With the relationship of saving his life, maybe he could really win the favor of the villagers and tempt the second child after staying in Suijintan for a few months.

After all, the biggest regret of the second child in this life is not studying, and marrying a stupid daughter-in-law...

This Gong Yunshu can satisfy all the beautiful imaginations of the second couple's couple!

Li Zhensheng frowned more and more.

It has to be said that the people behind this calculation really put in a lot of effort and studied the Li family thoroughly.

It's just that the only thing that the people behind it didn't figure out was that their brothers were from a farming family, and they grew up very slowly but kept growing.

In the past few years, they have lived and died several times, struggling to survive, which made them extremely united, and their protection of the family is also extremely firm.

For everything they have now, they are like squirrels holding fruit, and every time they take a bite, they have to raise their necks and look around.

They have no ambitions, and they are not jealous of others, but they absolutely do not allow anyone to take away their "fruit"!

Therefore, when there is a disturbance, others don't think much about it, but they are already holding long knives and are always ready to fight against the invading enemy!

Not to mention how Li Zhensheng was in Qingmu Town, but to say that it was already noon when the two soldiers rushed back to Suijintan.

Jiayin harmed many potatoes in the space last night, and wanted to toss some starch for my old lady.

Although she succeeded, she was also very tired.

Now that she was full, she lay on the big kang, hugging her beloved cloth tiger to catch up on sleep.

Mrs. Li sat on the side, watching over her granddaughter, and also doing needlework...
