Speaking of the marriage proposal, it was Cao Minglu who came up with the idea. His mother doted on her only son and could not resist the instigation, so she introduced her distant relative Zhang Jiushan to the Zhang family. After they got married, Cao Minglu continued to rape Zhang Jinxia under the pretext of visiting relatives. Twenty years ago, rural people were still very feudal in their thinking, so Zhang Jinxia dared not let her husband know about this. This kind of thing lasted for more than ten years, until four years ago when Zhang Jinxia was getting older and older and not as beautiful as she was when she was young, Cao Minglu fell in love with Cao Huiyan from Wuli Village and agreed to let her go.
Zhang Jiushan was not unaware of it, but he was a poor child like Zhang Xiaojun, and he was a relative of Cao Minglu. Later, this kid became rich overnight and was very powerful. He could not afford to offend him, so he just swallowed his anger. Fortunately, Zhang Jinxia and her husband were always on the same page, which comforted Zhang Jiushan.
After Zhang Jinxia was released, the two were very happy. However, a few days later, misfortune struck. She suddenly got a strange disease, became thinner and more confused, and could not remember anything in the past. After the exorcism, they realized that Cao Minglu wanted to kill her to silence her. He used a very clever method, using evil spirits to slowly torture her to death, and no one could see any problem.
Unexpectedly, I intervened and saved her, which allowed Cao Minglu to resort to the evil method of poisoning Zhang Jinxia, causing her to go crazy and commit suicide.
Why did Cao Minglu want to kill her to silence her? Because he had left her house and ran to the back hills. Zhang Jinxia felt strange and followed him secretly, and discovered a secret. He had cruelly buried a person alive!
Hearing this, I was shocked. Wasn't it the old woman who buried the person alive? How could it be him? Looking at Shen Bing, I felt that this was unbelievable. My previous speculation was wrong and I had to think it over again.
Zhang Jinxia went on to say that Cao Minglu also discovered her stalking and threatened her that if she dared to tell anyone about it, he would bury her whole family alive. He also told her that after these people died, their ghosts would run to an ancient tomb nearby, and that there was a curse hidden in this forest. If she dared to disclose this secret, she would die miserably even if she was not buried alive!
When I heard this, a light suddenly flashed in my mind. Yes, the ancient tomb!
"What day is today?" I asked Shen Bing.
"Brother, are you out of your mind? Yesterday was the end of the month..."
"Well, today is the first day of the new year, and Xiaoxue is going to be sent to an ancient tomb!" I stood up suddenly. I was in no mood to listen to Zhang Jinxia's story anymore. Besides, the story was basically over.
"How do you know you were sent to the ancient tomb?" Shen Bing asked in surprise.
"I guess..."
Shen Bing fainted immediately.
I comforted Zhang Jinxia and told her not to worry. I told her to go find her brother and send Zhang Jiushan to the hospital first. She should not come back for the next two days, and nothing would happen. As for what she asked me to do, I would definitely do it. If everything goes well, Cao Minglu can be sent to the police station tonight. If it doesn't go well, then it goes without saying that he must have died in the ancient tomb. Let them also make plans to flee far away.
After saying this, he hurriedly pulled Shen Bing out, bought a basket of buns from the street, and rushed to Celi Village while eating.
"Are we going to Celi Village?" Shen Bing asked breathlessly.
"Silly girl, this is the gateway to the ancient tomb..." I said as I choked on a mouthful of bun and nearly choked to death.
Shen Bing handed over a bottle of water and said with a smile: "Eat slowly, silly bumpkin."
Looking at her bright smile, I suddenly couldn't feel happy. Because I remembered the warning of the ancestor and the fact that he was seriously injured and died because of it. Can we take Xiaoxue out of Mangshan alive today
