Song Yi

Chapter 218

In the room, Du Wenhao was holding a bowl to check his pulse, when the old village master suddenly asked, "Mr. Du, how is the situation outside?"

"It's not very good. Your daughter called all the men, women and children in the village to say that there is something important to announce in the middle of the dam."

"...Oh, let her go." The old village master didn't seem to care what his daughter was going to announce.

Du Wenhao didn't know what came to his mind, and suddenly asked without thinking: "The chief, aren't you afraid that Xiaoman will wrong the second chief?"

There was a chuckle in the darkness, the laughter was relaxed, as if it had nothing to do with Lu Zhengtian, he was just a bystander watching the fun: "She is still a child, who would take it seriously? Besides, there are regulations in our village , if I fall down, Shunyan will be the head of the second head, and her second uncle dotes on her the most, and won't be as knowledgeable as her."

"But……"

"Mr. Du, thank you for helping me and Xiaoman keep this secret. We will thank you well after tonight."

Du Wenhao sighed secretly and stopped talking.

"By the way, Mr. Du, have you met my other two younger brothers?"

"Not yet. After seeing you, I went to the back mountain with Young Master Xiaoman to see the camellias you and she planted."

"Oh. This child..."

Du Wenhao thought to himself, this old village owner Lu Zhengtian is really stable, in case the second leader has any ideas, or is provoked, or Xiaoman is used by villains to start an infighting with the second leader, the people in the village will fight together, Then the situation is not easy to handle.How can there be any eggs in a full nest?At that time, I am afraid that it will be impossible for me to get out of the matter.

At this time, the noise outside the stockade became louder, and Du Wenhao decided to go and have a look again.

In the courtyard of the stockade, Xiao Man stood on a wheel, looked at the dark crowd of villagers below, and said loudly: "Folks, the reason why I called everyone to Bazi today is because I want to find out who is responsible for my father! "

Xiaoman had already pointed out that the village owner was murdered by someone, like a big stone thrown into a lake that was already calm, it immediately stirred up waves, and everyone whispered to each other.

An old man raised his face and said, "Miss, do you have any basis for saying this?"

"Of course there is a basis!" Xiaoman listened to his chest and said loudly: "I have always suspected that someone wanted to assassinate my father, but because there is no evidence, this time I invited the famous doctor Mr. Du who is good at Hua Tuo's magical skills from the capital to help me. When my father was diagnosed, Mr. Du said that my father’s illness was caused by yang evil! Thanks to Mr. Du’s treatment, he saved his life. My father could not have been poisoned by this evil for no reason. Someone must have killed him! Get him out! However, I don't want to be too extreme in doing things. It would be best if this person can stand up on his own, and I can consider a lighter punishment, but if I wait until I get him out, it will be too late!"

The crowd buzzed again, looking at each other, as if everyone around them were suspicious except for themselves.But no one came out to plead guilty.

Xiaoman looked around slowly, and said with a sneer, "No one will admit it? Okay, I'll find him out!——Liu Laosi, get out!"

The people around Liu Laosi immediately ordered them to disperse, leaving him standing there trembling alone in the field, looking around frantically.

Xiaoman's voice was extremely cold: "I have checked, and the yang evil is caused by the blood flowing too fast for some reason, which leads to the loss of body fluid. One of the reasons is drinking! Let me ask you, Liu Laosi, I heard that a few days ago I Dad came back from the capital to do business, and someone tricked my dad into drinking alcohol on the way, have you heard about it?"

There was a chatter among the crowd.They all looked at Liu Lao Si with disdain.

Liu Laosi's knees softened, he fell to his knees, slapped himself and kowtowed, "Damn me!"

Xiaoman stepped forward and kicked the man to the ground, and said loudly: "You know that my father's body cannot drink, but who in Manzhai doesn't know? You still tricked him into drinking, there is no reason why you wouldn't do that, say Come on, who ordered you to do this?"

The man bowed his head and remained silent.

Xiao Man was annoyed, and said: "Someone is here, bring Liu Lao Si's family to me."

Soon a woman and four children were pulled up. The woman and children were already trembling with fright and dared not speak.

Xiaoman sternly said: "You can be regarded as an old man in our Lu family village. I, Xiaoman, should have called you uncle, but I know that my father will not remain in a coma for no reason and is still awake. All the gentlemen who came here said My father has a strange disease and can't feel the pulse, Mr. Du saw through your trick at a glance, and said! What did you mix my father with the wine? Tell me quickly!"

Liu Laosi's whole body was like sifting chaff, but he still bowed his head and remained silent.

I saw a man in his 30s walking forward, his appearance was unrecognizable, but he was wearing a white shirt, but he looked very elegant in the wind.Going up to the man, he said: "You are a smart person. If the young master asks you, you should tell me exactly. Who told you to give my elder brother the wine?"

Du Wenhao asked the maid next to him in a low voice, "Who is that person walking up the stage?"

"Our third leader, nicknamed the layman in white."

Lin Qingdai: "Obtaining is quite appropriate."

"Our three masters are the most talented and learned in the village. They know all kinds of poetry, songs and Fu, and they are good at martial arts."

Lin Qingdai smiled coldly: "So, you three masters are really good at both civil and military skills."

"That's natural." The servant girl's words were full of reverence.

I saw the third master walked up to the stage and said something to Xiao Man in a low voice, but Xiao Man was expressionless and didn't pay attention at all. : "It's okay if you don't tell me, someone is here!"

Immediately two big men came up and grabbed one of the oldest children, only to hear Xiaoman say: "I count to three, if you don't tell who that person is, I will hang your eldest son on the flagpole of the village." Last day and night, do you believe it?"

Lin Qingdai: "Wen Hao, how can Xiaoman do this?"

The child burst into tears and said, "Sister Xiaoman, don't hang on to me, there are wolves at night, I'm afraid!"

The crowd suddenly became restless, and the second leader came forward and said, "Xiao Man, don't rush, we can ask slowly."

Xiao Man sneered, and said, "You can ask slowly, but I just can't wait to know who really hates my father so much and wants him to die early?"

The second leader was speechless, and went down without saying anything.

The third leader said: "Xiao Man, I don't want you to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Even if this matter is related to Liu Laosi, it has nothing to do with his children. Don't..."

That Liu Laosi suddenly screamed and fell to the ground.

Du Wenhao groaned inwardly, and hurriedly pushed through the crowd, only to see Mrs. Liu's wife and children hugging his body and crying into a ball.

"Get out of the way, everyone, let me see what's going on."

An old man with white eyebrows squeezed over, but it was the gentleman who had been seeing a doctor before, and everyone quickly stepped aside.However, Du Wenhao squeezed over and squatted down. After careful inspection, he found a trace of blood overflowing from the corner of Liu Laosi's mouth. He probably committed suicide by biting his tongue.

At this moment, Du Wenhao heard someone behind him say: "It must have committed suicide by biting his tongue."

Du Wenhao turned his head and saw that it was the third head of the so-called "white-clothed layman". He really was a handsome scholar with bright eyes and bright teeth.It just felt like there was always something wrong.

The layman in white asked Du Wenhao expressionlessly, "According to Mr., is it like this?"

"It's hard to tell! If you want to judge accurately, you have to wait a while." Du Wenhao got up and looked at Xiaoman.

The woman and four children next to her burst into tears immediately.

The third master sighed, and said: "Oh, poor man, someone is here, please come out, Xiao Man, I will tell you not to worry, who in this house would want to harm the elder brother? Lao Wang probably couldn't bear it for a while because of the hot weather, so he drank a little rice wine for the eldest brother. He didn't expect that the eldest brother was tired all day long, and he played with flower sticks for a while, and then..."

"Third Uncle said that, it seems that Xiao Man is suspicious." Xiao Man's expression seemed very strange.

The third master didn't care, he patted Xiaoman's shoulder with satisfaction, and said: "Okay, let's leave, the young master is also in a hurry, everyone, don't blame her, go back."

When everyone heard what the third master said, they dispersed.

Du Wenhao took Lin Qingdai back to the small courtyard.

----------------------

The moon quietly climbed up to the top of Zhaojun Peak, showing only half of its face shyly. In the forest, there were occasional wolves howling and owls hooting, and the mountain wind blowing, making people feel very cool and comfortable. Be intimidated by the animals in the mountains.

There are two people sitting under the Zhaojun Pavilion halfway up the mountain. They can be seen by the moonlight, but they are Du Wenhao and Xiaoman.

Xiao Man asked: "Sir, are you saying that I acted a little too hastily tonight, and instead startled the snake?"

"I think so." Du Wenhao seemed a bit preoccupied.

"My dad thinks so too?"

"Your father has already fallen asleep, he didn't say anything, and I didn't ask."

"Ugh……"

Du Wenhao saw Xiaoman's lonely face, and under the moonlight, she seemed to be preoccupied.

"Okay, let's go back, it's almost dawn."

"Sir, please go back first, I want to sit down again."

"Then I'll stay with you."

Xiao Man looked at Du Wenhao, smiled wryly, and said, "Sir, are you afraid that someone will take advantage of this opportunity to harm me?"

For some reason, Du Wenhao really had this idea: "You are different from your mother, you have no strength to restrain a chicken."

"You're not the same!"

"But I'm a man."

Xiao Man was a little touched, people are like this, when they are the strongest, they are often the time when they need help the most.

After a while, Xiao Man said, "I'll take you down the mountain tomorrow."

"Didn't you let me watch your father?"

Xiao Man shook his head and said, "I want my husband to protect my father, so I will send you down the mountain."

Du Wenhao was even more surprised when he heard it, and said: "The girl means..."

Xiao Man nodded and said, "That's right, let me ask you sir."

"What's the girl's plan?"

Du Wenhao knew that although Xiaoman was young, he had a lot of ideas, and he was used to being pampered, so he couldn't tolerate others saying no to him.

"..., I don't know yet, let's send my father down the mountain for now."

"Are you so relieved to hand over your father to me?"

Xiao Man smiled and said, "Otherwise, so what?"

Du Wenhao was speechless, he didn't want to ask any more questions, because he knew that Xiaoman wouldn't tell him anything.
