Twilight Boundary Chapter 140

Chapter 140: A human pile (fourth update, please vote!)

Huma didn't need to remind him, Mr. Zhao, who had been guarding all night and understood all the causes and consequences, had already rushed up angrily.

He raised his hand and was about to slap the man in the room on the head: "I'll beat you to death, why should I kill you?"

“I sent someone over last night to see if you had laid the plaster on it...Why is it that every household has plaster, but yours doesn't?”

The man didn't dare to fight back when he was slapped by Mr. Zhao. He just hugged his head and said nothing.

On the other hand, the woman who was holding the child was also frightened and screamed tremblingly: "He, he swept up the ashes..."

But before she could finish speaking, the man suddenly turned his head and glared at her so hard that she didn't dare to speak anymore.

 “You still dare to act arrogant?”

Mr. Zhao can be a rich man in this village, and there is no one who is not smart. When he looked at this look, he had already guessed something, and he felt even more angry.

I hit him twice. I felt my hand hurt, so I stopped beating him. I shouted directly behind me: "What are you doing standing still? This turtle boy is going to destroy the lives of our entire village. Come up and hit him. Hit him." Tell the truth before you tell me..."

When the people in the village heard what Mr. Zhao said, especially the sentence that hurt the whole village, they immediately started shouting and cursing.

This area is dozens of miles across, and the water is getting less and less. The water used for cooking is mixed with mud. When there is less water, everyone has a stagnation of heat in their hearts, which will be aroused and their eyes will become red.

 The panic about the disaster year, the anger about the things he had done, and the fear of the drought monster all came together and surrounded him fiercely.

Hu Ma just looked at it coldly, staying far away, and also used his eyes to signal Zhou Datong and others not to interfere.

They are outsiders who handle matters, but they must also have a sense of propriety. They handle Hanbao's affairs, but they never interfere in the village's personnel affairs, otherwise they may cause unexpected troubles.

Looking at the villagers surrounding him, the man suddenly shivered with fear and shouted: "I don't know, I really don't know..."

"Perhaps the master you hired is not working well. What does it have to do with me?"

 “Why the **** is it not working?”

Mr. Zhao took the lead and kicked him: "Why did your sheep die if it doesn't work?"

　　“If it doesn't work, why did you sweep the lime away?”

"It doesn't work...it doesn't work. What the **** were you doing by worrying about my great-grandfather's grave?"

Mr. Zhao has always been kind-hearted and a good man in the village. He has lived his whole life and never let others see him harming others.

But such a respectable gentleman took advantage of him, and the young men in the village were even more rude. He would beat him up if he went up to him.

This man also knew that people in the village could beat someone to death. He was so frightened that he screamed: "Don't fight, don't fight, I said..."

 “Here he is, he's...he's my cousin...”

The people in the village stopped, but when they heard this, they just looked at each other.

Especially the woman who was holding the baby was stunned when she heard this, then jumped up and beat him on the head.

Mr. Zhao even stepped forward to ask questions, while Hu Ma, Zhou Datong and others just looked outside and waited for people around to talk about it before they understood.

It turned out that the cousin he was talking about was originally from the same village as him, but in the early years, the two brothers went to the city to do business together and made a small fortune. This man was honest and brought the money back to live, but his cousin Brother, he ran away with the kiln sister in the city.

 In other words, the woman in the house was not his wife, but actually his cousin-in-law.

However, since there was no man in the family, life was difficult, so he often came to take care of her, and he gradually settled in.

Not only did the people in the village say nothing about this, but even the cousin-in-law's parents-in-law didn't say anything.

After all, someone has to do the work in the fields, and someone has to take care of the children at home. In the village, there has always been a rule of succession between brother and brother. If a cousin runs away, it is not much different from death. People always have to live.

“Your family, your cousin, the big fool, didn't he run away with Sister Yao?”

“How could...how could you come back at night?”

At this time, Mr. Zhao was panting and had already been interrogated.

But it was him who made up the story about the cousin running away with the kiln sister. When the two brothers went out to do business together, to be honest, it wasn't a serious business, they were stealing.

Fortunately, the two of them were pretty good at craftsmanship, and they managed to steal a big house. So he was jealous and beat his cousin to death on the way back to the village. He found a hidden place with the body, filled it in, and piled it up again. The soil.

And he killed his cousin not only to keep the money, but also he was always thinking about his sweet cousin at home. So when he came back, he spread the rumors, and then ran here when nothing happened, and he was not willing to use the money, so he did it. Gradually I got the hang of it.

However, because she was worried about her cousin coming back, her cousin never settled her identity with him.

He probably regretted it a lot afterwards. Instead of saying that his cousin ran away with Sister Yao, he should have said that he died somewhere unknown.

"No wonder." Now the people in the village have eaten such a big melon, not to mention Hu Ma finally understands the cause and effect.

There was no grave at all, but it was buried in a corner. Moreover, his cousin was resentful when he died, and the place where the body was hidden must be wrong. Wouldn't this gradually turn the corpse into something?

And this guy had a secret in his heart, so he didn't actually want to be found by himself, so he secretly swept away the lime at night, and even said that the **** he gave him before...

 …It wasn't that he was frightened, he really wanted to kill himself.

Since my "master" is dead, no one will continue to care about this matter, so it is possible to cover it up, right?

This is really...

　　I came over to take care of things for others. I was not troubled by Xingzi, but I was almost troubled by others.

"Forget it, these are matters in your village. We haven't discussed it yet. Let him show us the body first!"

After the angry interrogation was over, Hu Ma stepped forward and said to Mr. Zhao: "Since he buried it, he must know where it is. Take advantage of the daybreak to dig out the body. Just dry your head and the matter will be over."

Mr. Zhao was trembling with anger, and only then did he react when he heard this.

 Hatefully kicked the man on the ground: "Aren't you going?"

 “Go, go…”

The man hesitated for a long time before he got up. He lowered his head and saw only the looks of the surrounding villagers hating him.

He didn't dare to look at anyone, but just walked out. When the people around him got out of the way, he suddenly grabbed everyone with his hands and ran outside.

But he knew in his heart that after his incident was exposed, the people in the village would not be able to spare him. He probably couldn't escape being hanged from a tree, so he didn't care about looking for the body and arresting him. If you get an opportunity, run as quickly as possible.

Unexpectedly, there were villagers outside the door, rushing over in a hurry. When they saw that he was about to run, someone hurriedly crossed the dung fork and **** to stop him.

But he had just been frightened for half of his life at night, and he was surrounded and kicked by the young men in the village. His legs and feet were no longer flexible, and he didn't know if there was something invisible that was affecting him. It was actually the work of God and God. He fell down and the **** was stabbed through his chin.

The people in the village dispersed in a hurry, then suddenly remembered it and gathered around, asking where it was buried.

 But his mouth opened and he could no longer speak, and his eyes gradually dimmed.

 The surroundings that were noisy just now suddenly became quiet.

　　Everyone looked at each other, the anger on their faces just now slowly turned into panic.

The only person who knew where the body was buried died so suddenly. How can the problem be solved?

　No one can do anything, everyone is at a loss.

He was stunned, and his eyes could only focus on Hu Ma.

At this time, Hu Ma also came to the man. Seeing the **** being driven into his head so firmly, he felt helpless.

 Obviously I just followed the footprints of that thing, found it and dried it in the sun...

 It is not difficult to solve this problem, but it has become so difficult due to human affairs.

“At this point, there is nothing we can do.”

He thought for a while, and could only walk up, looked at the woman in the room who was crying harder and was about to be beaten, and whispered: "The only way to find someone is to look for her in a more remote place during the day. Look for it and see if you can find it, and if you can't find it..."

 “…then use a living stake.”

"ah?"

Mr. Zhao and the people around him were shocked and asked what a human stake was.

Hu Ma is actually a raw melon egg now. Her understanding of Hanba only comes from the rumors told by her second master, some explanations in the Zhensui book, and some of the secrets shared in the previous chats with Sister Wu He and Shopkeeper Wu Hong. come out.

But now facing the awe and panic eyes of the villagers, knowing that the panic caused is the most terrifying, he could only remain calm, looked at the baby in the arms of the woman in the house, and said slowly:

“When a person dies, nothing is known anymore. The trader who came back last night and hurt the livestock will definitely come back and hurt people tonight.”

“When you are alive, you put your relatives first and care about your blood relatives. But when you die and become evil, you start harming your relatives first. This is the saying of enemies and creditors.”

“Now, this baby is the closest person to him in this world, so when he comes back tonight, he will be the first to harm him.”

"And at night, no one can guarantee whether they can protect this child's safety despite fighting for that job, so we can only use his horoscope, take some blood, and become a substitute. "

"While this substitute attracts its attention, we must gather people to get rid of it. Only then can we truly solve the drought in Zhuangzi."

 “It's just that…”

 As he spoke, he looked at Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao was also touched by what he said, his heart rose in his throat, and he subconsciously said:

"how?"

Hu Ma took a long breath and said, "We need more money!"
