Chapter 57 The culprit
Hearing Li Xiangyi said that he saw his daughter Xiaozhi, the expressions of Ning Dazhu and Hu Cuihua changed for a while.

After a long time, Hu Cuihua timidly asked: "How is she? Still... okay?"

"What do you think?"

"It should be fine, after all..."

"Not good, I'm dead." Li Goyi interrupted.

Ninghu and his wife were stunned at the same time, and they said in horror: "How could she die - obviously put her..."

Guo Nanjun said coldly: "You abandoned her, why didn't she die?"

"She's so young, and she's sick. If you throw her away in a barren pavilion, how will you teach her to live?"

"Besides, isn't this fulfilling your wishes?"

Hu Cuihua was stunned, and the footbath in her hand fell to the ground with a bang

Ning Dazhu's face was ashen, his eyes trembling and he asked, "Grandfather, is Xiaozhi really dead?"

Li Goyi didn't speak, just waved his sleeves, and a picture appeared in front of Ninghu and his wife.

It is the scene of Sanli Pavilion.

A deserted pavilion stood alone on the hill, and in a corner of the pavilion lay the dead bones of a six or seven-year-old girl.

The little girl's dead bones have no flesh and blood left, but the clothes on them are so familiar.

Even after three years, I will never forget it.

"How did this happen, God..." Hu Cuihua squatted down, covering her face and crying bitterly.

Ning Dazhu looked dull, with guilt and pain that couldn't be concealed.

Li Xiang was speechless.

However, Guo Nanjun snorted coldly: "You abandoned her, don't you just want her to die? Why do you pretend to be acting here? Who are you crying for?"

"No, you are indeed good at acting."

"At noon, they also said that Xiaozhi was lost, so we will report to you when we see it, hum!"

When Hu Cuihua heard these words, she paused for a moment, then her shoulders shook, and she cried even harder, but she couldn't make a sound anymore.

Ning Dazhu's eyes were red, and tears welled up silently.

Guo Nanjun looked at it but was even more disdainful.

If it wasn't for Li Goyi who was beside him and told her not to be impulsive, she would have kicked them away.

Even kill them.

Animals still have the feeling of licking their calves. Such parents are simply unworthy of being human.

Back then... after her father was swallowed by a demon, her mother left their siblings and remarried, never to return.

When she was young, she and her elder brother Guo Hengbei depended on each other for life, and grew up eating a variety of meals and even begging along the street.

She detested such parents who abandoned their children the most.

Sensing the anger on Guo Nanjun's body, Li Xiangyi sent a ray of spring breeze to calm her down.

Guo Nanjun turned his back, but still couldn't help his anger.

Ning Dazhu also saw the anger and even murderous aura on Guo Nanjun's body.

The voice was hoarse: "Engong, Guo Nvxia, we did lie during the day, Xiaozhi didn't get lost, but three years ago, we sent her to Sansanliting. But we left her there, but it wasn't He wanted to kill her, but..."

"Ah!"

Ning Dazhu couldn't continue.

After a long time, Hu Cuihua, who had finally calmed down a little after shed all her tears, touched her face and stood up.

She looked at Li Goyi and Guo Nanjun with red and swollen eyes, and said, "Grandfather Guo, Nvxia Guo, I know that in your eyes, my baby and her father are abandoned children, cold-blooded and heartless people, like animals."

"But we can't help it."

"At that time, Xiaozhi was suffering from a strange disease called hysterical blood. The traveling doctor who passed by said that it would be possible to cure it if he had to go to the capital to find a disciple of the imperial hospital."

"At that time, the baby's father was injured while hunting and couldn't go up the mountain, so he had to go to the fields to dig some rations. And I just gave birth to Xiaoye and needed to breastfeed, so I couldn't do much work, and the family couldn't afford that much money. , but also to feed the small fruit and leaflet..."

Guo Nanjun turned around and stared at her coldly: "So you abandoned Xiaozhi and watched her turn into a barren pavilion?"

"I..." Hu Cuihua choked.

A few moments later, with a trace of determination, he continued: "Yes, you are right, Haier and her father and I did indeed abandon Xiaozhi in Sansanliting."

"But we don't want to kill her, but we want her to live!"

Guo Nanjun snorted coldly again.

Hu Cuihua said with a complicated expression: "Nvxia Guo, benefactor, I'm not lying. Three years ago, Haier and her father and I left Xiaozhi in Sansanliting because we really wanted her to live."

"Sanshili Pavilion is the main road of our Xu County. There are two main roads, east-west and north-south, especially the north-south official road. Those caravans, horses, take her away."

"Those merchants and bodyguards passing by are all rich and powerful people. It is nothing to them to spend a thousand gold for medical treatment."

"In the surrounding villages, there are often people who can't survive. They leave their children in Sansanliting, let passing merchants and young ladies pick them up, and take them back to serve as maidservants and house slaves."

Having said that, Hu Cuihua paused for a moment before continuing to say sadly: "Although Xiaozhi was picked up, she needed to serve others, and was even beaten and scolded."

"But since the passers-by picked her up, they will always treat her and she will survive."

Li went away silently.

Guo Nanjun said coldly: "It's really well edited. If we had never been to Sansanliting, we would have been tricked by you."

Hu Cuihua shook her head and said firmly, "I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can go to the village to inquire. There are indeed many families who can't support them, so they leave their children in Sansanliting and let the horse team of the passing merchants pick them up."

"Nonsense, the Sanshili Pavilion and the North-South Official Road have been abandoned for at least three years. If you leave Xiaozhi there, don't you want her to die?"

"Abandoned for more than three years? Impossible!" Hu Cuihua shouted in horror, "Three years ago, the official road and pavilion were obviously in good condition. Even half a month ago, I led Xiaoguo and Xiaoye through the Thirty Mile Pavilion , went to the city and pulled a new set of clothes for them."

Guo Nanjun and Li Goyi looked at each other.

They looked at Ning Dazhu next to him.

Ning Dazhu shook his head: "It's not deserted. There are often foreigners who come and go between the county and the county to rest in the village. I have never heard them say that the Sansanliting is deserted."

"Besides, this east-west mountain road is the main road connecting Huqiu County City and Xu County. How can the county guard and county magistrate let it fall into disrepair?"

Guo Nanjun was silent.

Li Xiangyun was thoughtful.

After half an hour.

"Emperor?"

"Say."

"Is Xiaozhi really dead?"

"Yes."

"Then my mother and I can go pick up the bones of Xiaozhi..."

"Not for now."

Ning Dazhu shut up, and he and his wife were a little uneasy, but more guilty.

Li Xiangyi said: "We will go and find out about this matter first."

After speaking, he and Guo Nanjun left.

Ning Dazhu and Hu Cuihua looked at each other, crying silently again.

A six-year-old boy and a four-year-old girl were woken up and came out of the house.

"Father, mother, why are you crying?"

……

At the entrance of Ningjia Village.

Guo Nanjun stared at Li Xiangyun: "Sir, is this a trap set up by practitioners?"

Li Xiangyi nodded, and then pinched his fingers to perform [Great Yi Tianji Technique].

After more than ten breaths, he said: "It's figured out."

Guo Nanjun said coldly: "Sir, let me take action this time!"

……

Eighty miles northwest of Sansanli Pavilion, there is a golden carp temple.

It never rained here, and the bright moon was in the sky.

In the audience, a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a yellow Taoist robe is refining soul pills in a secret room in the backyard. Two apprentices who are wearing Taoist robes but have no Taoist demeanor are waiting on the side.

"Master, there are still three months left, and the soul-seed in Sansanliting should be fully mature, right? By then, will we be able to leave this place where no shit?"

"That's right, Master, I've already stayed here enough, I want to go back to Wangdu City to have a good time. It's been three years, and our wild cultivator is almost turning into a monk!"

The middle-aged Taoist in yellow robe said with a smile: "It's coming soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a bang, and the entire Golden Carp Temple exploded.

The middle-aged Taoist in the yellow robe jumped up and shouted sharply: "Who dares to come to my Golden Carp Temple to play wild?"

But to the south, a sassy woman in red came stepping on the moon.
