Upon hearing the village chief's words, Long Lin's eyes immediately changed.
He didn't know that Old Man Li was still related to the village chief despite being alive to this day.
From this point of view, the village chief must have helped Old Man Li before this. It seems that the village chief is not as bad as he thought.
Long Lin had never had a good impression of this village elder.
After hearing what happened to the village elder, Long Lin felt a little gloating at first and felt that he deserved it.
But this sentence made Long Lin change a little bit.
It seems that Uncle Li's three sons did not come back. Something must have happened at that time, which caused Liu Nang to have murderous intentions.
"Village chief, why did Liu Nang have to kill this old man Li? He is just an old man, so he shouldn't be a threat to him."
When the village chief heard this, he immediately showed a wry smile.
"It's because of you. If you hadn't come, Old Li Tou wouldn't have died, and Liu Nang would have lost his murderous intention."
"At the beginning, Lao Li Tou's three sons did not come back. This was such a heavy blow to Lao Li Tou."
"That day, Lao Li Tou almost collapsed. Even though Liu Nang sent money, Lao Li Tou was still cursing and crying for his son."
"I was not at the scene at the time, but I estimate that Liu Nang must have done something to Lao Li Tou, and he should have taken action."
"Old Li Tou stopped fussing and calmed down. After a few days, he disappeared into the village. It is not difficult to imagine that Old Li Tou went to the county government office."
"After returning from the government, Old Li Tou has completely changed."
"He didn't cry or make trouble. He was crazy and drunk all day long. Liu Nang knew that Lao Li had gone to the government, and he had murderous intentions at that time."
"Under my plea, Liu Nangcai did not kill him."
After listening to the village chief's explanation, Long Lin completely understood that this was the case.
But Long Lin didn't expect that Old Man Li would actually go to that county.
But why? This incident had no impact at all, but made Old Man Li even more desperate?
There is only one possibility. After Mr. Li went there, the government did not accept his complaint, and even made Mr. Li suffer tremendous torture.
But if you can't go to the county, you can still go to the county, to the prefecture, or even to the capital.
But why didn’t Mr. Li? Instead, he returned directly to the village?
Long Lin thought about it and felt that it wasn't that Old Man Li didn't think so, but that he encountered some difficulties that made him give up the idea of continuing to sue.
Through this incident, Long Lin thought of what his father said when he left the capital.
In these two states, there may be a force hidden behind it. In other words, this force has so much control over everything that even the father in the capital cannot be sure of it.
His father was such a shrewd person, and he must have manpower arrangements in every state and county in the world.
To be able to control the two states and block the news so completely is definitely in collusion with the officials of the imperial court.
Only in this way can all news be completely blocked, and only in these two states can we continue to plot things that outsiders cannot know about.
The two states are so vast. What are these people plotting? And how do they manage to avoid being exposed for several years?
"Village Chief, we came here just to stay overnight, so why did Liu Nang kill Old Man Li directly at night?"
After hearing this, the village chief sighed and shook his head.
"Young hero, when a group of you come to the village, how can Liu Nang be relieved? He must be afraid that the matter will be exposed, so he has murderous intentions."
"Originally, Liu Nang just wanted you to leave, but that old Li Tou, I think, must have said something to you."
"What Old Li Tou said is exactly what Liu Nang didn't want to spread. Naturally, he wanted to kill Old Li Tou to settle the matter."
"I originally thought that after you learned about the death, you would find a way to escape and leave here, but Liu Nang was wrong. You didn't."
Long Lin nodded. By now, he basically understood the matter.
The village chief was completely unaware of the rest of the matter. It was time to go see Liu Nang. This Liu Nang must be an insider, and Liu Nang must know what he wanted to know.
But there was one thing that Long Lin was still a little curious about.
"Village Chief, after those people left with Liu Nang, how much money can each person get when they return to the village years ago?"
In Long Lin's opinion, this should be a huge sum of money. After all, this is something that may cost one's life.
After hearing this, the village chief sighed.
"About six to ten taels of silver."
Upon hearing this number, Long Lin was dumbfounded on the spot.
He thought there would be a lot of silver, but he didn't expect that it was only a mere ten taels.
For ten taels of silver, so many people lost their lives. Is it really worth it?
It's true that people die for money and birds die for food. Only ten taels of silver can make the people in these villages follow Liu Nang regardless of their lives.
Long Lin stood up with a dark face and walked outside.
When he came outside, Long Lin looked at the sun in the sky, stretched his body, and his expression softened a little.
Several people outside looked at Long Lin with curiosity.
Long Qian immediately came to Long Lin with a look of anticipation on his face.
"Brother Six, how's it going? Have you gained anything?"
Long Lin nodded and continued to move his body. After sitting for so long, his body was somewhat stiff.
"I think we have gained something. Bad brother, take the village elder with you to protect the scene here."
Long Qian nodded and said no more.
He heard some of the conversation inside, but didn't understand most of it clearly.
Jade Die looked at Long Lin with a very calm expression and did not react much.
Long Lin stood up and walked directly towards the broken house where he was resting. Jade Die and Ghost King followed quietly behind him.
When they arrived at the house, the Chicken King stood there calmly, while Liu Nang huddled in the corner, holding one hand with the other.
Hearing the noise, Liu Nang quickly raised his head and looked towards Long Lin.
After seeing Long Lin, Liu Nang was not in a hurry to speak, and just watched Long Lin's reaction quietly.
He knew in his heart that this time he really encountered a group of ruthless people.
Who are these people? Liu Nang couldn't think of it, but he could tell that these people were definitely not ordinary people.
With a smile on his face, Long Lin threw the broken sword behind him directly in front of Liu Nang.
Liu Nang naturally saw this scene. When he saw the murder weapon he used to kill Old Man Li, his pupils immediately shrank.
Last night, after killing Old Man Li, when he passed by the house, he threw the broken sword in without giving it a second thought.
Now that the broken sword appeared in Long Lin's hand, it was not difficult to imagine that these people must have been to his home.
Liu Nang immediately became worried about his wife and children at home.
