Views:

Following the direction given by the villager, everyone found Ashan's residence and knocked on the door.

After waiting for a long time and no one responded, Tang Zhuo knocked a few more times and said loudly, "Is there anyone here?"

Suspecting that he was deliberately pretending to be deaf and dumb, Tang Zhuo gently put his ear against the wooden door, holding his breath to feel it.

It is easy for people in the Xuanmen to concentrate on feeling the presence or absence of living people in a small space. After a while, Tang Zhuo shook his head and said, "No one is here."

Everyone looked at each other. Lin Haoxuan said, "Could it be that he died?"

Xuan Zilin said: "No, that son must still be alive. According to what the villagers said earlier, the son named Ashan did marry a wife, but he died of illness not long ago and did not marry again. Arm Yanluo only killed the husband and wife, as long as the son of Ashan doesn't have... no... he should be safe and sound."

Everyone listened and coughed deliberately. Only Lin Haoxuan glared and asked sincerely, "As long as there is nothing?"

Lin Zifan rolled his eyes again. Someone whispered to him: "That's, that's the one, the man whose wife died..."

Lin Haoxuan turned his head to look at him and said loudly, "What happens to the dead wife? What the hell are you guys talking about??"

After being stuck for a moment, Lin Haoxuan slapped his palm as if he had come to a realization, and said, "Oh! I understand! It's because his wife died, so he disguised himself as his wife, right? Oh, what's the point, that's all there is to it. A 'woman' won't be killed. But it's hard to look straight at a big man pretending to be a woman, tsk tsk."

Everyone: "… "

At this moment, a dog bark suddenly came from not far away.

Cats, dogs and the like have always been very sensitive to the feelings of some evil spirits. Everyone suspected that the one-armed Yama was nearby, and was ready to chase after him, only to see a mixed-haired puppy raised by the family who was pouting and barking. There was a small dog hole under a wall in front of them, and at this moment, a man's butt was arching back and forth with his back to them, and he wanted to shout in pain but didn't dare to make too much noise, stuck in the dog hole. .

Everyone: "… "

Hyunjakang walked over with a look of contempt, and aimed a kick at the man's ass. The man threw himself against the wall with an "Ouch", rubbed his buttocks and was about to get up and said, "Thank you, thank you this Ren..." When he looked up, he saw a group of people looking at him with big eyes and small eyes, jumped up and ran away with a shout.

He didn't run because he felt embarrassed, but because he saw everyone looking for him early, so he jumped out of the window and fled, but got stuck in the hole!

The crowd chased over the wall. Lin Zifan insisted on chasing the clouds and ran the fastest, but suddenly he felt something was wrong. When he looked back, he didn't see Lin Haoxuan. He ran back to the wall to see that Lin Haoxuan miraculously chose to go through the dog's hole, and was not unexpectedly stuck. .

Lin Zifan was so angry that his brows stood on end, his face was red, he kept pulling him out and said, "You goddamn idiot!!!"

Over there, Tang Zhuo and others had already caught Ashan, surrounded him, and asked, "We just came to you to ask about the situation, why are you running?"

That Ah Shan was dressed in commoner clothes and was very thin. The whole person shrank into a ball and said: "You have so many people all at once, of course I will be afraid! Who knows what you are here for?!"

Xuan Zilin said: "We are definitely not malicious, we just found out that someone has seen Zhu Yao Zhu Gongzi looking for you before his death, so I wanted to ask you what happened that day."

As soon as the word "Zhu Yao" was uttered, Ashan's face changed instantly, and she looked at everyone with a look of vigilance and said, "You...you suddenly asked me what to do with a person who has been dead for so long?? How would I know?!"

Xuan Zikang said: "He saw you before he died. If you know something, just say it. If there is really nothing important to say, you can retell the experience of the day you met, what happened, what you said, and what he said. Whatever it is, that's it."

Ah Shan didn't even want to look at them, she said, "No comment!"

Xuan Zikang raised a thin eyebrow angrily, stepped forward and said, "...you?!!"

Seeing that he was angry, Ashan suddenly became frightened, shrank back, and shivered: "I, I said I have no comment, what are you still pestering me for? What do you want me to say, say... I will Said, that night, I suddenly heard someone knock on my door. When I opened the door, I saw a man covered in blood standing at the door. I was so frightened that I was about to close the door. Only when he spoke, did I know He is Zhu, Zhu Yao…”

Tang Zhuo said: "Continue."

Ashan swallowed her saliva, observed everyone's expressions, and continued: "Although I and Zhu Yao grew up together, I don't think our relationship is very good, and he suddenly came to me in the middle of the night covered in blood. , I always feel that there is no good thing, I am afraid that I will die, so I will drive him away. He knew that I love money, and immediately took out a large piece of gold from his clothes and gave it to me, so I let him in... "

Seeing someone but not saving him, he subconsciously thought that he was afraid of trouble and death, which was very unattractive in the hearts of the Xuanmen disciples, and the expressions of everyone present were not very good. Ashan continued: "He said he didn't have a good relationship with the people in the village, he only knew me a little bit, he wanted me to help him, he said that he was chased and killed all the way, and his injuries were so severe that he could hardly breathe. now, wish I could find a place to hide him..."

Tang Zhuo said, "I was chased??"

Ah Shan seemed to be very nervous, and was suddenly asked a question. She almost fainted from fright, and said, "Yeah..."

Judging from the time, Zhu Yao escaped during the period when the Fu family was attacked by the Xuan family. But even if Zhu Yao is the one who owns the Sword of Extreme Yang, he is just a commoner. He has neither noble status nor background. He was abused by his own father since he was a child. No matter how he looked at it, the Xuan family sent someone to hunt him down. He's gone too far. Tang Zhuo looked at Xuan Ziyuan subconsciously, only to see that Xuan Ziyuan didn't look very good when he heard this, and all the Xuan family members present were a little stiff.

Ashan continued: "But I'm very afraid that the person who is chasing him will chase him here and get rid of me too. After all, he was in the Fu family. I heard that he is very powerful. Isn't that the one who is chasing him? Can I overturn my little shabby house with my hands? I absolutely refused to keep him, and then he had to leave. I don't know what happened after that."

The ending was too light and suspicious. After Ashan finished speaking, she originally breathed a sigh of relief, but when she looked up, she saw that everyone was in disbelief, and anxiously said: "What I said is true!"

Xuan Ziyuan went straight in and said, "Why did you bury him alive?"

As soon as these words came out, Ah Shan's face turned purple.

Everyone looked at Ashan in shock.

Ashan seemed to have been stabbed to some point, and immediately became angry, saying: "Why do you say that I buried him alive??!!! What evidence do you have??!!! I... I... I...!!!"

Ashan was stuck for a long time, trying to vent his anger but couldn't find an exit, as if he was blocked by something, he couldn't speak. Seeing that he refused to speak again, and he was suspicious, in order to prevent him from escaping, everyone tied him first and went to Ah Shan's residence in the village to find clues.

Tang Zhuo said, "Young Master, please open the door." Ashan stubbornly said, "I refuse!" Xuan Ziyuan sneered, Yin Luan immediately chopped off, and the broken wooden door was cut open from it. Ashan stared at the crowd as they filed in, and said, "Hey!!! You guys are trespassing on the house!!!"

After searching for a while, someone suddenly raised a black scabbard with trembling and said, "Everyone, come and see!!! I found Xuanhu's scabbard!!!"

Having experienced the incident at Juling Fort, this sound was like food poured into a frying pan, and everyone in the house was about to be blown up, and they all gathered around and said, "What??? Xuanhu??? Its scabbard is actually in here??!"

Assanden's face was ashen at the time, seeing that no one seemed to notice him, he turned his head and ran away, but was grabbed back by Xuan Ziyuan and threw it to the ground. Ah Shan's arms have long been tied tightly by ropes, and she cried bitterly: "Everyone!!! Dear heroes!!! The little ones don't dare anymore, please let the little ones live!!!"

Xuan Zikang said angrily: "You bastard, you were talking nonsense just now, and I knew that things were far from simple! Do you know what kind of sword this is? You dared to take off the scabbard and hide it here, say! That day! What the hell happened?!!"

Ashan snorted, lying on her back and said, "Speak!!! I'll say!!! I'll say anything!!!"

"It's like this... At that time, Zhu Yao wanted to stay. I thought that there must be some other gold and silver treasures hidden in him, so I agreed temporarily. But I searched while he was asleep, and he was not there. He found other treasures on him, and at this moment, I noticed a sword he brought, the one whose sheath you found just now. Although I don't understand that at all, but after all, I know that he Famous, the sword he brought must be very valuable, so he wanted to secretly take it away, but I just got the sword, and it made a loud noise as if it was alive, and it almost hit me with a sword Head off!

"I was scared to death, turned my head and ran. The scabbard was taken off my hands when the sword was smashing itself. I ran as fast as I could, and when the sword stopped chasing me, I buried the scabbard. , didn't go back until dawn. But when I went back, Zhu Yao asked me if I had taken the scabbard, suspecting that my motive for agreeing to keep him was not pure. I saw that he began to doubt me, afraid that he would wait until he was healed. When I got up, I was stabbed to death with a sword, so I bought a stone coffin and buried him in it while he was still seriously injured..."

After listening to this remark, everyone's face was ashen, and their hearts really said that money can make a ghost run the mill. For the sake of money, some people can even kill people.

At this point, everything Ashan described seems to be complete and can be matched with doubts one by one. Ashan took advantage of the danger to steal people's money and buried Zhu Yao alive. After Zhu Yao's death, it was excusable to seek revenge from him.

A Shan was relieved, fell to the ground and stopped talking. As everyone was about to go out, they suddenly noticed that there was an eye without whites between the tiles on the roof.
