Chapter 48
"How to do it? Arrest people directly and take them to the Yamen, or report them to the official?" Azi asked.

Once discovered, there is no reason to ignore it.

Shui Ying thought about it and handed the life-changing token to A Zi: "Go to the Yamen. Let me know when you report the crime. It's best to bring an exorcist. Try not to expose your identity to avoid unnecessary trouble. . We are just passers-by passing by, do you understand?"

"Understood." Ah Zi agreed and set off immediately.

Shui Ying turned to look at the unhappy Goudan. If the child knew the truth...

Azi flew across the sky to the town.

After thinking again and again, he turned into an ordinary man without any characteristics and stepped forward to beat the drum and report the crime.

Two detectives soon came out.

Ah Zi followed them in, and faced the county magistrate, she knelt down and held up the life-changing token: "Master Qingtian, help me. Someone in our village used evil magic to exchange their lives, and two people have died. Now one more person is missing."

"What?!" The county magistrate and the master were shocked, and hurriedly called a policeman to find an exorcist they knew well.

An upright exorcist hurried over, took the token, frowned and nodded.

The county magistrate's heart was in his throat and he quickly dispatched police officers to the village to arrest him.

Since the matter was serious, the county magistrate personally led the team.

Ah Zi led them to the door of that house, took a few steps back and disappeared.

Goudan’s house.

Ah Zi came back and nodded.

Shui Ying went to the door and looked around, and sure enough she saw the county magistrate organizing policemen to rush into the house to arrest people.

With the arrow on the string, everyone found that there was nothing they could do if Ah Zi was missing.Led by the exorcist, a group of people rushed into the next room.

"What are you doing, what are you doing! Is there any law in the blue sky and white sun? Why do you arrest people?" the man shouted after being detained.

The policeman scolded: "The county magistrate is here, how can I allow you to be arrogant? Why should I arrest you? Of course it is based on the laws of the court!"

The county magistrate and the master entered the hospital.

The detectives quickly searched the house and not only found the undisguised bodies, but also rescued several little girls who were locked up in the woodshed.

The oldest is eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest is only two or three years old.All of them were in ragged clothes and skinny.

"Your Majesty, the body has been found. A rough examination revealed that he had just died. He suffered a strong blow to the back of the head and died of excessive bleeding."

The county magistrate came into the house to take a look and was furious: "Such a crazy murder happened within my jurisdiction. Take it away!"

"Yes." The police officers escorted the struggling and shouting couple out.

Several little girls were to be questioned and taken away together.

There was no one left to take care of a newborn baby boy. He couldn't just leave him alone at home.In desperation, the magistrate handed him over to a little girl to hold.

The body was brought out.

The villagers who were watching the scene started talking about it.Shui Ying saw that the time was right and told Gou Dan that Grandma had found it.

Goudan was very happy. As soon as he ran out, he saw the old man's body being carried.

He rushed forward and cried: "Grandma, grandma..."

After asking the villagers about the situation, the county magistrate ordered people to take Goudan with him.

Shui Ying and others watched from a distance and followed him to the Yamen.

Generally, when a murder occurs, people are allowed to watch during the trial.However, this case involves sorcery and should not be made public.

The county magistrate conducts closed-door trials and then announces the results.

Shui Ying and others were worried about Gou Dan and waited outside the Yamen.How can a child endure a sudden change...

The couple was escorted to the hall, still arrogant and refused to kneel.The police officers beat them on the legs and forced them to kneel down.

The county magistrate was shocked: "You two are so vicious that you actually used evil methods to kill people. Do you know your guilt?"

"We don't know what kind of evil magic harms people. We didn't kill the old woman. She knocked her head to the ground and died."

"Yes, we didn't kill him. Is there any evidence that we killed him? We were wronged, wronged."

The exorcist shouted angrily: "You still have the nerve to cry out for injustice. Do you really think there is nothing we can do? What you have done will not disappear in a vacuum."

He spread his hands, revealing the life-changing token.

The couple were shocked.

Goudan, who was kneeling next to his grandma, raised his head in disbelief.

"A life for a life, you can come and you can go." The exorcist cast a spell.

The black energy on the token surged, roaring like a ferocious beast.The beast glared angrily, turned and pounced on the couple.

One scream after another, black energy flowed into their bodies.Like being bitten by thousands of ants, the two of them looked twisted in pain.

Goudan witnessed everything without blinking.

At this moment, he understood everything.

It turned out that he was the one who killed his parents.If he hadn't picked that thing up and brought it home, his parents would not have died.

Grandma will be fine...

The couple's skin shriveled instantly, their hair fell off, and they looked like they were withered.

The so-called evil law will be counterattacked once it is broken.

Several little girls were frightened.

One of the seven or eight-year-old girl was scared and cried: "We saw it. We all saw it. The grandmother next door came to the door and quarreled with her father and mother. They started arguing and started to fight. The mother hit the grandmother on the head, and the father was angry and hit it several times. .”

The couple looked at the girl in disbelief.The little girl quickly hid behind her sister.

The oldest sister stood up: "Sir, we are all witnesses. My father and mother did kill the grandmother next door and locked us in the woodshed. We were warned not to tell anyone."

You dare!The couple's eyes were splitting.

My sister was shaking but pretending to be calm: "Brother next door, I'm sorry."

"Ah - you are talking nonsense! I will kill you!" The couple got angry and wanted to pounce on the girls.

The detectives immediately pushed them to the ground with force.

The county magistrate slapped the alarm again: "In the courtroom, he actually wants to commit murder! Beat him!"

The couple's hands and feet were restrained.The two detectives raised the board high and struck hard again and again.

They still had the strength to howl at first, but after ten minutes they were so painful that they fainted and could no longer scream.

At this time, the backlash on the couple worsened.His whole body twitched like crazy, and the detectives hurriedly backed away.

The baby in the little girl's arms had its mouth wide open.Black energy gushed out from his seven orifices, creating a disgusting stench.The couple suddenly opened their eyes and turned to look at the baby.

Their son, their only hope.

All the black energy that emerged from the baby's body returned to the couple.

When the black energy dissipated, the baby boy's eyes were black and his face was blue and lifeless.

The death looked so miserable and strange that the little girl screamed and threw it away.

The baby's body fell to the ground.

The couple crawled over to check regardless, seemingly not noticing anything unusual about the child.

They surrounded the child's body and patted it to sleep.The son they finally waited for, their precious son...

The woman picked up the child, and her ferocious face turned gentle.Men surround women and children like a tree shielding them from the wind and rain.

When the little girls saw this scene, they either bit their lips or clenched their fists in tears.

Obviously they are also their parents' children!
Goudan lowered his eyes, his small body lying next to grandma.Tears welled up in his eyes, but he couldn't say a word.

The case is clear and the evidence is conclusive.

The couple was sentenced to death by hanging and executed in public.As they wished, the family of three was neat and tidy.

Girls are victims too.The county magistrate thought that they were young, and the person who reported them disappeared without a trace.

I will give them a silver reward and arrange for the two older ones to work in the embroidery workshop.

The eldest sister is like a mother, and the eldest sister is the one who stirs up the whole family.Feed your sister and live a good life.

The case is closed.The announcement only stated that the couple had committed a murder together and did not disclose the exchange of lives.

Once leaked, I don’t know how many people want to follow suit.

Shui Ying and others received Goudan and accompanied him back to bury the old man.The little girls will not accept the bodies of their parents, and they will be disposed of by the Yamen.

My sister is unwilling to pay for the funeral.

Nowadays, there are many mouths waiting for food, so we can't waste a copper coin.

Back to the village, the two groups of people walked together.

Shui Ying stepped forward and took the initiative to chat: "It's hard to support a family. Do you have a good place to go?"

"The county master arranged for me and my second sister to work in the embroidery workshop. We can earn some money every month, enough to support our family."

"Thank you for your hard work. After the rain and the sky clears up, your life will get better and better." Shui Ying patted her shoulder to comfort her.

"Thank you." My sister responded softly.

She had rarely felt warm kindness since her birth.Her parents only asked her to work, and she was often beaten or left without food.

There is endless work to do every day. Occasionally, my mother will yell at me when villagers ask a few questions.

Over time, no one wanted to meddle.

My sister's eyes were moist, it turned out that she deserved to be treated tenderly...

After returning to the village.

Shui Ying and A Bat found someone to hold a funeral for the old man, which didn't need to be grand.

Put it in the coffin, carry it up the mountain and bury it.The old man's grave is adjacent to that of his son and daughter-in-law, so the whole family can take care of him.

Goudan kowtowed to the three graves and cried silently.

Then, he turned around and kowtowed three times to Shui Ying.Don't say thank you for the great kindness, he will repay you in the future.

Shui Ying helped him up: "Now that you have no relatives or friends, what are your plans for the future? Do you have a way to support yourself?"

"I want to study medicine. I want to be a doctor, cure diseases and save people. Please help me, sister." Goudan knelt down again and kowtowed.

A bat smiled.

Shui Ying pulled him up: "Being a doctor is not easy. If you want to do it, you have to work for a lifetime."

"I am willing to work for the rest of my life! I want to save people, and I want to be the one who saves others. Please help me, sister." Goudan's eyes were determined.

"You have made up your mind, and I will make it happen." Shui Ying touched his head.It's just that it's not easy to learn from A Di, so let's take him to the Lin family first.

Goudan’s house.

Azi was preparing the meal when she heard the tinkling bell next door.He was lying on the wall, watching several little girls busy in the kitchen.

There are only boiled vegetables in the pot.

Ah Zi pursed her lips, brought a plate of braised pork and shouted, "I made too much, do you want to eat it?"

Children are very greedy.

The older girls were embarrassed.

Azi put the plate on the wall: "Remember to take it down and eat it."

After saying that, he turned back to the kitchen to take a peek.

The little girl next door looked at me and I looked at you, and finally took it down and ate it.

The meat was so soft and fragrant that they almost swallowed it with their tongues.After eating, my sister washed the dishes and brought them over, her head hanging down in embarrassment.

Azi took the plate and asked with a smile: "Is it delicious? It's not difficult to make. Do you want me to teach you how to make it?"

My sister looked up, and the smile in front of her was brighter than the sun.She lost her mind for a moment, but she would always remember this moment.

Even though my hair is gray, I still miss it when I think about it today.There are people in the world who are born beautiful, and just looking at them makes you happy.

And he is exactly such a person.

"Thank you, no need." My sister shook her head and ran home.It's hopeful and gratifying to know that people like him exist.

Azi frowned and didn't understand.

Could it be that the braised pork he made was not to your liking?It doesn’t matter if none of it is delicious, but I don’t want to learn it yet.

I haven’t cooked for a long time, have my cooking skills deteriorated?

No, you have to practice.From that day on, Shui Ying and the others ate braised pork for several days.

No matter how delicious something is, you can’t eat it all the time.

When they almost protested, Ah Zi finally changed the dishes.Good luck and finally relief.

The group stayed one night in the village.The next day, I packed up my things, got on the carriage, and continued towards Huaiye.

Goudan carried a small baggage with him.
