Mr. Chen trembled and moved his lips as if he wanted to defend himself, but before he could speak, Jiang Yu's voice without any warmth suddenly sounded. In the room sealed by Yuan Jingce's magic, his low tone
, but it seemed very clear: "You know very well that Su Qin'er was born in a prostitute. No one in this town thinks highly of her, let alone trusts her. You are also worried that as time goes by, everyone will see that Su Qin'er has no trace of anything at all.
Ill, when the incident was revealed, you just stayed put and took advantage of the pain of losing your son to pretend to be so angry that you lost your mind. You asked the servants to surround Su Qin'er. It seemed that you were discouraged. In fact, before the servants were dispatched,
, I have received instructions from you that I must not be left alive."
I don't know whether Jiang Yu's tone was too firm, or whether Mr. Chen was exposed to all the secrets and gave up struggling. He looked at the people in the room and tried to open his mouth several times, but in the end he said nothing, just helplessly.
Lean back in the chair.
His momentary dejection confirmed that all the inferences made by Zhong Shaoyu and Jiang Yu were true.
Mu Rou said angrily: "It turns out that you are the culprits who killed Su Qin'er."
Mrs. Chen shed tears and shook her head: "No, it has nothing to do with me or my son. My son didn't touch her. My son thinks she is dirty..."
Jiang Yu's lips curved into a sarcastic smile: "Only those with a heart see everything as dirty. Just keep your clothes clean, and the rest will be completely dirty already."
Jiang Yu's words were very harsh. The mean Mrs. Chen's face turned pale. Perhaps she had never been scolded so directly. Mrs. Chen didn't know how to reply for a while.
After a while, Mrs. Chen finally spoke, and her words were obviously lacking in confidence: "Even if my son really touched her, he was not the only one that night. Besides, it was the brothel where she went.
, it’s not like my son forced her to do it. If she had never been to a brothel, how could anything happen later? She might have been willing to do that that night."
Look, this is the human heart.
Even if you know you are wrong, you will still find a reason for yourself to make a mistake.
Jiang Yu didn't even bother to make a mocking expression this time, let alone speak.
Mu Rou's face turned red with anger: "You guys are really shameless. What happened to Su Qin'er's background? Is it an insult to your family tradition, or is it an eyesore to you?"
She seemed to be really angry. After saying this with indignation, she turned to look at Yuan Jingce for comfort: "Brother Yuan, they are really going too far."
Yuan Jingce had always been refined and elegant, and his status as the noble son of the Immortal Sect was always upheld by him. Expecting him to say a few curse words was even harder than ascending to heaven.
Just like now, even if he no longer agrees with Mr. Chen's family's actions in his heart, when faced with Mu Rou's inquiry, he just said politely: "No matter what, this is not the reason for you to disregard human life."
Mr. Chen was a little guilty at first, but after what his wife just said, he quickly calmed down.
He was following a trick, and in order to preserve the reputation of the Chen family, he put all the blame on Su Qin'er. Although the people in front of him had guessed correctly, they had no evidence.
Now that Su Qin'er is dead and her body is unknown, they have no way to prove that Su Qin'er was not infected with the disease.
Even if he found someone to beat Su Qin'er, Su Qin'er was not beaten to death by him at that time. It snowed heavily in the middle of the night, so he could definitely conclude that she was frozen to death.
The duty of the people of the Immortal Sect is to subdue demons and eliminate demons. Such murder cases are handled by the court's own laws and they have no right to interfere.
Thinking of this, Mr. Chen has nothing to fear anymore: "Su Qin'er insists on lying in the ice and snow. Can you blame me? A burly man in his prime can freeze to death if he lies down in that kind of snowy night for one night.
, not to mention that she is a weak woman, she clearly does not want to live anymore and is looking for short-term life, what does this have to do with me?"
Mu Rou probably didn't expect that Mr. Chen could be so shameless, her lips trembled with anger, and she stared at Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen, unable to say a word.
Yuan Jingce looked at the couple in front of him with a cold face. He held it in for a long time and said, "You guys are really shameless!"
Jiang Yu, who had been leaning lazily on the chair, couldn't help but laughed softly after hearing Yuan Jingce's words, with full contempt.
Yuan Jingce's face changed slightly and he glanced at Jiang Yu without saying anything.
Mu Rou was very protective, and asked Jiang Yu with a cold face: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Yu drooped his eyelids and ignored her words.
When Zhong Shaoyu saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Before Jiang Yu betrayed Wumeng Mountain, when Mu Rou followed her and Yuan Jingce down the mountain for training for the first time, Jiang Yu was also there.
Maybe it was due to the disharmony between them. The first time Jiang Yu met Yuan Jingce, he was very repelled by Yuan Jingce. No matter what Yuan Jingce said, Jiang Yu could always pick out some bones in the egg. As Yuan Jingce
Mu Rou, Ce's number one crush, always defended Yuan Jingce. The two of them had a lot of tit-for-tat confrontations at the time. On that trip down the mountain, it was okay that Jiang Yu didn't speak. As long as Jiang Yu spoke, Mu Rou could always talk to him.
Make a fuss.
Now after so many years, Mu Rou is no different from before, but Jiang Yu seems to be more hostile to Yuan Jingce.
If she continues to sit idly by and ignore it, she is afraid that if the matter between Mr. Chen and Su Qin'er is not resolved later, a fight will start between them.
Zhong Shaoyu didn't wait for the reaction from both sides, pretended to be very sleepy, stood up with a long yawn, stretched out his arms lazily, and said: "You've been up all night, don't you guys?"
Are you sleepy? Let's go."
She changed the topic so suddenly that everyone in the room didn't react.
Yuan Jingce and Mu Rou sat on their chairs and did not move. Jiang Yu put away the mockery on Yuan Jingce's face for a second and stood up as if he was going to leave at any time with Zhong Shaoyu.
Seeing that the two of them were really going to leave, Mu Rou didn't bother to settle the score with Jiang Yu. Thinking that Master Chen's matter was still hanging in the balance, she subconsciously said: "You guys..."
Before she could say the next words, Zhong Shaoyu tilted his head and looked at her as if something suddenly occurred to him: "Miss Mu, Jiang Yu saved your life last night, shouldn't you thank him?"
Mu Rou's face suddenly darkened. She was about to say something when Yuan Jingce seemed to understand Zhong Shaoyu's intention and stood up and said, "Muruo, if you have anything to say, we can wait until we get back."
Mu Rou looked at Yuan Jingce in confusion, not understanding why he had to follow the wishes of those two people.
Yuan Jingce was afraid that she would cause trouble if she spoke out, so he smiled gently at her: "You are still injured, it is important to heal it first."
Although Mu Rou was puzzled, she was comforted by Yuan Jingce and stood up obediently.
As Zhong Shaoyu walked out, he raised his hand to Yuan Jingce: "That Yuan Yuan Yuan... or something, remember to remove your barrier. There is a wrongdoer and a debtor, and whoever deserves the retribution will bear it."
With."
Yuan Jingce removed the barrier without saying a word.
Several people walked away, and as they walked Zhong Shaoyu silently counted in his heart: "Three, two..."
Before the word "one" had settled in her heart, Master Chen's voice came over: "Don't leave, you can make a price, tell me how much you will pay to help me get rid of her."
No one paid attention to him.
Mr. Chen chased him out and stopped in front of everyone: "One thousand taels."
Still no one spoke.
What Mr. Chen was thinking just now was that the people from his immortal sect came down the mountain to slay demons, just for money. As long as he insisted that Su Qin'er's death had nothing to do with him and avoided the government, he would provide some more money to let him
These experts suppressed and sealed Su Qin'er, and he felt at ease from now on.
Unexpectedly, these people quarreled for a few words, stopped talking about anything, and planned to leave.
Mr. Chen gritted his teeth and continued to give way: "Gold, one thousand taels of gold."
Still no one spoke.
Zhong Shaoyu seemed to not even want to talk anymore, so he walked around Master Chen and walked forward.
In desperation, Mr. Chen shouted: "Two thousand taels of gold!"
"Otherwise, three thousand taels!"
"No matter how much, I really can't get it out of my house..."
Zhong Shaoyu never stopped walking.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Chen subconsciously reached out to catch Zhong Shaoyu.
His hand even touched Zhong Shaoyu's clothes, but Jiang Yu waved his wrist away: "Go away, don't touch her!"
Mr. Chen was really afraid that once these people left, he would be killed by Su Qin'er like everyone else in the town. When he saw that these people had no intention of compromising, he was really afraid now and would not care anymore.
He failed to live up to the wishful thinking he had just made: "I know I was wrong, I am guilty, and I plead guilty. Please don't leave. If you leave, our family will definitely die... I can do anything you ask me to do,
But just don’t leave…”
What Zhong Shaoyu was waiting for was this sentence: "Are you sure you can do anything?"
How dare Mr. Chen bargain? He nodded repeatedly: "Okay, sure."
Zhong Shaoyu turned around and looked at Mr. Chen: "Okay, bury Su Qin'er well, give her a memorial tablet, offer incense to her every day, recite sutras and repent, and do not stop until death, and do not give up halfway."
