Mu Yi walked out with a sullen face, just in time to see the old woman slap Cuixiang in the face.
At this moment, Cuixiang was awake and her expression was full of fear. After being slapped, she just knelt on the ground and did not dare to defend herself.
Mu Yi didn't have much sympathy for her. No matter whether she was forced or not, no matter how much she had no choice, from the moment she identified Mu Yi, she was destined to stand opposite Mu Yi.
And poor people always have something to hate.
Of course, the old woman's behavior still made Mu Yi a little annoyed, but now was not the time to settle accounts with her.
When the old woman saw that Mu Yi was not doing well, she thought he was afraid and acted more and more arrogantly.
"Little Taoist priest, if you kneel down and kowtow to me now to admit your mistake, I may not be able to forgive you and not tell you what you just insulted the current Queen Mother Lafayette." The old woman looked at Mu Yi with a trace of pleasure in her eyes.
Mu Yi didn't know where her confidence came from. Was it just because of the yamen? Or did she have something else to rely on?
"Who do you think you are?" Mu Yi glanced at the old woman disdainfully, then sat on the stool.
"You..." The old woman obviously didn't expect that Mu Yi was so arrogant and ignored her at all. His look of contempt almost made her angry.
"Old madam, please calm down and wait for the people from the Yamen to come and see if he still dares to be so arrogant?" The housekeeper comforted the old woman and then took a stool for the old woman to sit on the side.
Judging from the appearance of the two of them, it was obvious that they planned to watch Mu Yi here, firstly to prevent him from escaping, and secondly, probably because they were worried that he would destroy the traces left behind at the scene.
Mu Yi ignored the two of them, but suddenly turned his head to one side and said to himself, "Do you want revenge?"
There was a sudden silence in the room. Even Cuixiang who was kneeling there couldn't help but raise her head. As for the old woman and the housekeeper, they looked at Mu Yi with inexplicable expressions. They didn't understand what he was talking about, let alone what he was talking about.
Who speaks.
"Looking at the way you refuse to rest in peace, I think you are not willing to give in. Could it be that you are willing to let the murderer go free?" Mu Yi continued.
"What are you talking nonsense about?" The old woman's face turned pale, but she still mustered up the courage to scold Mu Yi.
"Of course I'm talking to your daughter-in-law." Mu Yi glanced at the old woman and said.
"How can a person talk after he's dead?" The old woman defended herself calmly.
"It is true that most people cannot speak when they die, but your daughter-in-law died unjustly, and she died with her eyes closed. Her soul will not enter the underworld for a while. Only after she has revenge, can she be freed and embark on the road to hell.
, to reincarnate." Mu Yi said calmly, but his words made the other three people in the room tremble, and they felt their hair stand on end, as if following his words, there was something really inside the room.
"You stinking Taoist priest, don't talk nonsense here. After death, everything is over. There are no ghosts." The housekeeper also pretended to be tough, but he was more to cheer himself up.
"It seems like you, mortal beings, can't see ghosts, but I have been cultivating for many years and have already opened my eyes. At this moment..." When Mu Yi said this, he suddenly looked at the old woman. He looked at her until she felt uncomfortable all over.
He continued softly: "She is right next to you right now!"
"ah!"
As soon as Mu Yi finished speaking, the old woman felt something blowing into her neck. Instantly, her scalp became numb and goosebumps appeared all over her body. After a loud cry, the old woman lost her balance and fell again.
On the ground.
Even the housekeeper next to her reacted a little too slowly because of Mu Yi's words and failed to help her. However, looking at his face, you could tell that he was also very frightened.
The green fragrance on the ground was even more unbearable. His eyes were straightened, and he could even hear the sound of his teeth chattering.
"Hey, she's on your left now." Mu Yi continued to look at the old woman and said.
"No, don't come here." The old woman's face turned pale, and she smacked her hands vigorously, because following Mu Yi's words, she clearly felt a chill in her neck, and that feeling frightened her to the extreme.
"No, it's on the right." Mu Yi sat there perfectly, watching the old woman dancing on the ground, saying something from time to time.
"It's right here, hurry up."
At this time, there was another noise outside, and it was obvious that the reinforcements arrived from the old woman.
The first person to walk in was an old man with an angry face. As soon as he came in, he saw the old woman on the ground and was startled, "What's going on?"
"Mr. Zhao, you are here. This is the Taoist priest. My old lady kindly took him in, but not only was he ungrateful, he also tried to insult my young lady at night. My young lady refused to obey. In the end, in order to keep her innocence, she only
Yes, I can only bite my tongue and commit suicide, and I won't die with my eyes closed." As soon as the housekeeper looked at the person, he suddenly shouted in grief.
"What a courageous Taoist priest." When the old man heard this, he became furious and looked at Mu Yi angrily and said.
"Old man, there are some things you should not say nonsense. Have you ever seen it with your own eyes? Why do you think I am the murderer just based on what this bitch said?" Mu Yi looked at the old man and said calmly.
"Who else could I have besides you? Our Kang family is a kind and loyal family. My husband died of illness at an early age, and it was all thanks to the old lady who raised the children. Moreover, our old lady also received the decree of the current Queen Mother, Lafayette, and personally gave her a chastity arch.
, who knows these ten miles and eight villages?”
"Furthermore, since my young master met with an accident on his way to Beijing to take the exam a year ago, my mother and newlywed wife are the only ones left at home. Although she is a widowed mother, she still abides by the ways of a woman. There have never been any rumors. I didn't expect you to be such a thief.
Seeing that my young lady was beautiful, I had evil thoughts and drove her to death. There were all the witnesses and physical evidence, but I still refused to admit it."
The butler's eloquence is also very good. He can explain all the causes and consequences clearly in just a few sentences. Coupled with the anger on his face, it is really believed to be true.
After listening to his words, even Mu Yi felt that he was the one who did this.
"Taoist, what do you have to say now that things have happened?" Even Mu Yi felt this way, let alone the old man who just came.
The old man's name is Zhao Quan. He also lives in this small town, so he is quite familiar with the Kang family. In fact, as the housekeeper just said, although it is a small town, he has never heard any rumors about the Kang family.
, both the old lady and the daughter-in-law are first-class chaste women.
Mu Yi was obviously an outsider. Although he was a Taoist priest, there were a lot of people selling dog meat like sheep's heads these days.
Comparing the two, it would not be surprising to see who Zhao Quan believed.
"Well, since even you think it was me, let's wait here together." Mu Yi was not surprised by the old man's attitude, because this was the only way it was normal.
Of course, he was not worried about what the other party could do to him. The reason why he stayed today was not only to avenge the woman who died of humiliation on the bed, but also to vent his anger.
"Wait? Wait for what?" Zhao Quan was obviously stunned, as if he couldn't figure out why Mu Yi was still so calm until now.
"Of course we will wait until everyone has arrived." Mu Yi smiled slightly. According to the distance and the other party's preparations, it is estimated that it won't take long before everything that is supposed to come will come.
With the arrival of Zhao Quan and the fact that Mu Yi did not continue to threaten, the old woman regained her composure, but her eyes towards Mu Yi were filled with a hint of fear and worry.
In fact, Mu Yi didn't wait too long. Soon, the head of another family in the town and the head of the yamen's errand arrived one after another.
"It's Captain Xue, that's him, catch him quickly."
After the guard named Xue arrived, the housekeeper's confidence suddenly increased. Although Mu Yi had some abilities, in his opinion, he was far from a match for the leader Xue in front of him.
It is said that this class leader Xue traveled through the world when he was young and earned the title of Iron Hand Xue. If he had not been injured in his leg later, he probably would not have stayed as a class leader in a small county.
Therefore, Captain Xue had some difficulty in walking. Some people had made fun of him before, but after that battle, no one dared to look down on the lame Captain Xue anymore.
"What's going on?" Xue Wu entered the room and saw Mu Yi first. He was instinctively stunned for a moment, with a strange expression in his eyes, but then he looked at the housekeeper and asked.
Immediately, the housekeeper took the trouble to narrate the incident again. Naturally, Mu Yi became an extremely unscrupulous and unforgivable being.
"Taoist Priest, please come with me to the county government office."
Unexpectedly, Xue Wu did not directly step forward and lock Mu Yi. Instead, he hugged Mu Yi politely.
His attitude surprised several people around him, especially the housekeeper, who said impatiently: "Boss Xue, this Taoist priest is extremely cunning, why don't we lock him up first."
"Why do I need you to teach me how to do my job?" Xue Wu glanced at the housekeeper coldly and spoke even more rudely.
"Uh..." The butler suddenly froze there. He had dealt with this Xue Bantou several times before, but he was obviously easy to talk to and had accepted his money. Why now?
"Do you know me?" Mu Yi looked up at the patrol leader and asked directly.
"The Taoist priest is joking. I have never met the Taoist priest, so how can I know him?" Xue Wu immediately shook his head and said, but the unnatural look on his face still did not hide from Mu Yi.
Mu Yi stared at Xue Wu, tapping his fingers lightly on the table beside him. Although he didn't say anything, the expression on Xue Wu's face began to stiffen, his expression became more and more unnatural, and he even looked a little nervous.
Even others can see his appearance clearly.
"It seems that he has been exposed. Who is that young master?" Mu Yi suddenly asked.
"Yes, he is the only son of the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs." Xue Wu hesitated for a moment, but finally said through gritted teeth.
(Second update! Thanks to Sister Zhu for the big red envelope and the heartfelt letter. Rose, Sun, Haiyang Zhixin and other brothers and sisters have given rewards. You are so awesome.
