Chapter 34: old woman 34
"Ah, it's not that we found someone left footprints on the mountain, so we came back to let you know." Zhang Tieshan stood up quickly, and calmly patted the dust on the corner of his clothes, but he could speak. At that time, he didn't dare to look at Ning Qiu, and his eyes were a little erratic when he looked at Liu Zhu.
"I just heard a movement in the inner hall, I thought it was a thief, so I wanted to sneak in and catch the thief, I thought it was Uncle Liu and Aunt Zhang inside ."
There seems to be nothing wrong with this remark, but Liu Zhu sneered, "Zhang Tieshan, you are trying to bully me and be confused. The gate of the ancestral hall is from the inside out myself. It's locked, how did you get in? I think the thief who stole things is you!"
He is the head of the village, and if something happens in the village, it is his responsibility. Zhang Tieshan's sneaky behavior made him suspicious after he came out of the secret room, and felt even more wrong.
Zhang Tieshan wiped his dark face with force, and a big man said a little aggrieved, "Village chief, you have wronged me! It's not that I can't find you no matter how I look, look The lock on the door of the ancestral hall was not locked but it couldn't be opened, thinking if you might have something to do inside, so I climbed over the wall and came in in a hurry."
"...Really?" Liu Zhu frowned and looked at him a few times. He didn't look like he was lying, and the doubts in his heart disappeared.
Zhang Tieshan is the one who watched him grow up. Although he is tall and powerful, he is usually honest and honest. He smiles and greets everyone and helps the neighbors. He should not be a traitor Section people.
"Uncle Liu, this can still be fake." Zhang Tieshan sighed and said with understanding: "I know that Uncle Liu has been very busy recently because of the affairs of the village. If it wasn't for the emergency , I won't bother you either."
He has always been very calm, his words are true, and his introduction is reasonable. Moreover, as members of the same clan, they will not do harm to their relatives.
Liu Zhu's doubts in his heart dropped a lot, but he still turned to look at Ning Qiu and asked for his opinion, "Old sister, what do you think."
Zhang Tieshan also looked at Ning Qiu when he heard the sound. When he looked at Ning Qiu, his breathing was a little heavy, but he quickly regained his composure.
Several seconds was a long time. When Zhang Tieshan was so nervous that he could hear his heartbeat, he saw Ning Qiu glance at him, then squinted his eyes and smiled kindly , "Liu Zhu, what are you thinking? We don't know what character Tieshan is. Anyone can do bad things, but Tieshan won't. Say yes, Tieshan child."
"...Aunt Zhang said yes." Zhang Tieshan didn't expect Ning Qiu to ask such a question, so he could only use a smirk to cover up his panic and didn't dare to speak any more.
I don't know if it's his illusion, I always feel like the old lady knows something. But no, he has been well-behaved these days, and he hasn't found a chance to start. It shouldn't be found, he must have thought too much.
With Ning Qiu's affirmation, Liu Zhu patted Zhang Tieshan's shoulder hard and said with a smile, "Uncle was in a hurry just now, so I'll give you an apology here. I found the strange footprints somewhere. , take me there quickly."
Zhang Tieshan hurriedly responded, not daring to look back at the ancestral hall that he could almost enter, and lead people up the mountain.
…
Sanwan Village is backed by three continuous mountains. It is definitely not easy for the Turkic troops stationed at the border of Huaiguan City to climb over the mountains and come here, not to mention the deep mountains and old forests. There are any ferocious beasts.
So they didn't set up ambush everywhere, they just blocked some roads that could be walked.
The eldest daughter-in-law took a sickle and searched in the grass for a wild medicinal herb Wujue that Ning Qiu told her to find back. Just a little.
When she straightened up and wanted to take off the hydration bag hanging from her belt, a stone suddenly hit her in front of her, wrapped in a piece of paper.
The eldest daughter-in-law was so frightened that she didn't dare to drink water, she picked it up immediately, and spread out the note, which read "If you want to survive, come to the back of the mountain and stream."
She can recognize some words, not to mention that this thing threatened her once, and it was engraved in her mind until she died, how could she not understand it.
"Bah, it's not a boy or a girl, the old lady is waiting for you to find me." The eldest daughter-in-law cursed inwardly, she put the note in her belt, looked left Looking right, I saw that there was no one, so I picked up the sickle, bent down and got into the grass and walked to the back mountain stream. It was very hidden, and there were rumors of man-eating beasts, but no one dared to set foot on it.
The eldest daughter-in-law walked through the gloomy jungle, clenched the scythe in her hand, and shrank into a ball to hug herself in fear, she had already scolded the person who threatened her in her heart Eighteen generations of our ancestors, but he didn't dare to turn around and leave, so he forced himself to go to the appointment.
When she arrived, someone suddenly appeared from behind, the eldest daughter-in-law heard the movement and immediately turned around in fear, seeing the man in black with a hood and a trench coat last time, She suppressed the fear in her heart, and put on a pleasing smile on her face, "Sir, you have finally come to me. I have already done what you asked me to do. Look, when will you be able to give it to me? antidote."
The voice of the man in black, neither male nor female, sounded particularly gloomy, "Is it okay? A group of people are still alive and kicking, do you have the face to tell me that it is okay?"
"Sir, what you asked me to do is to pour the medicinal powder into the trap to attract the wild boars, and in the end the group of wild boars also died, where are they still alive." The eldest daughter-in-law looked puzzled , will be completely ignorant to the performance of the three-pointed.
"In this case, in the next step, you can help me poison them all."
It means, let, let me kill!"
The volume was turned up and the voice was trembling.
"If they don't die, you die. Could it be that you choose to die yourself." The man in black revealed murderous intent.
"No, no, I, I don't want to." The eldest daughter-in-law shook her head desperately, her face was so pale that there was no blood at all.
"In this case, then you choose to die by yourself." The man in black sneered, he stretched out his hand and directly grabbed the neck of the eldest daughter-in-law. He opened his mouth but couldn't breathe, and Bala's struggle on his hand became smaller and smaller.
However, when the eldest daughter-in-law almost suffocated to death, he let go of his hand, took a step back, and looked down at the eldest daughter-in-law who was sitting on the ground like a mess of mud and breathing heavily , "It's not in the plan, if you kill you rashly, Brother Yong will be angry. But if you dare to disobey and disobey my orders, then when your two children will die, I don't know."
"What are you trying to do! Don't touch my child!" The eldest daughter-in-law raised her head suddenly, her voice hoarse, and her eyes were full of fear.
"If you want them to live, just be obedient, otherwise, the white-haired man will give the black-haired man a bad taste." The man in black made a playful threat, like a cat sneaking a The mouse, let it feel scared and unable to escape the minions.
Said: "What do you want me to do?"
"I want you, kill that old woman who gets in the way!" The man in black said with boundless chills.
He smiled in a low voice and said bewitchingly, "I remember that you had a bad relationship with that old woman. Get rid of her now, and the person who will be the master of the house in the future will be you, isn't it? What a good thing."
"...Okay." The eldest daughter-in-law lowered her head and couldn't see what she was thinking, her messy hair sticking to her face was very embarrassing, "My child, you can't touch."
"As long as you complete the task, their lives are like mustards to me, I don't even bother to look at them." The man in black snorted coldly, he flicked his sleeves, and there was a medicine bottle Landed in front of the eldest daughter-in-law, "This poison, as long as it gets on it, it will die silently."
"Two days, I only give you two days, if she doesn't die, your two children will die."
Abandoning this, he turned and jumped into the surrounding jungle, disappearing.
The secluded forest was silent, and the eldest daughter-in-law exuded a gloomy aura. In the end, she picked up the medicine bottle and put it away, and walked down the mountain. When she returned to the team, she had returned to her previous style. Chatting loudly with other village women.
It ended in a mighty way.
The eldest daughter-in-law wandered around as usual until she saw Ning Qiu entering the house, and she quickly followed behind. Go back home and run, each doing their own thing, and no one notices this move.
"Mother, you really guessed that when I acted alone, those who were neither male nor female really came to me again!" The eldest daughter-in-law's eyes lit up, Said with some excitement.
There is a world of difference between this moment and the embarrassed appearance of being threatened on the mountain so much that she dared not resist a word.
Ning Qiu was not surprised and said lightly, "What did she ask you to do."
People said that they wanted me to poison and kill my mother. I was almost strangled to death at the time, and they also said that if I didn't do it, I would kill Smart and Xiaohong. There is no way to do it. Mother, don't be angry, It was all faked by me, how could it be poisoned?"
She hurriedly placed the poison and the note on the table, and then lowered her head like a child who did something wrong, not daring to look up at Ning Qiu.
After waiting for a few seconds, the eldest daughter-in-law gritted her teeth again, knelt in front of Ning Qiu, hugged her leg and cried, "Mother, I can tell you everything, there is absolutely no half. A lie. If I die, I will die, but the two children are innocent, and there is still a great future for the smart future, you have to save them!"
She is greedy for life and fear of death, but compared with the lives of her two children, naturally the children are the most important.
Ning Qiu glanced at her, "Now that I'm not afraid of death, who dared to go up the mountain and throw the medicine powder into the trap."
Ning Qiu raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, "Oh? How did you know."
The eldest daughter-in-law, Qiqi Ai, said, "That person said it was just a powder to attract wild boars, but I am not stupid, they threatened me with my life, and even helped me catch wild boars? Later, I secretly, I tried it with a chicken, and found that it wasn't really poison, plus I was poisoned, so I threw the powder down. Later, the wild boars that were attracted almost killed our village. I, I too scared."
"Okay, get up, kneel down every now and then, do you think I've lived too long?" Ning Qiu was a little surprised. Flowers are still clever.
"Bah, pah, what are you talking about, mother? You must live a long life."
"Mother, you believe what I said! I swear it is true." She stood up and raised three fingers.
"If you put poison, do you think I'll let you go?"
Hearing Ning Qiu's words, the eldest daughter-in-law breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "But mother, what's the matter this time, this person wants to kill you, really bold. And Smart little red, I'm also afraid that something will happen to them."
"You just wait for him to come to you next time. With me, they won't have an accident." Ning Qiu waved her hand and motioned her to go out.
The eldest daughter-in-law didn't dare to nag, she left lightly, and closed the door intimately.
With mother's guarantee, she can rest assured. After all, mother... she is already very different, and it can be said that she is omnipotent. As for the reason, she and the rest of the family are not suitable.
Firstly they didn't dare, secondly they didn't dare... After all, it was too incredible, they were still willing to believe that the old lady was this old lady, nothing changed, it was just that it was suddenly very powerful.
After the person left, Ning Qiu took out the deed from her arms and brought it out of the secret room.
She placed it on the stage, poured the water from the teapot into the cup, and then slowly poured it on the contract. The part where the Turkic characters were suddenly cut off appeared slowly. content.
…
While waiting for Gu San to make a decision, An Lord stayed in the town and inquired about things by the way.
He went out today, but when he came back halfway, he found his sister An Tuluo taking off her black clothes.
"Did you do it again!?" An Tuluo grabbed her hand with a cold face and asked seriously.
An Tuluo was startled, and subconsciously touched her waist to throw out the poisonous needle. When she saw that it was An Lord, she breathed a sigh of relief.
An Lord was unmoved, his face was furious, and he said sharply: "Tell me, are you going to poison innocent people again!"
"Brother, are you murdering me? You promised to take care of me and protect me, but you are murdering me now!" He threw off the hand that An Lord grabbed, turned his back to him, shrugged his shoulders and sobbed in a low voice.
, I won't condone your willful behavior, you can do it yourself."
Having said this, he left immediately.
An Tuluo rubbed her wrist, her crow feather-like eyelashes trembled slightly, bit her lower lip lightly, wondering what she was thinking.
