Section 219, Desperate Gambler [Part 2]
Judging from this situation, he also knew that his wife had already returned to her parents' home because she was scolded just now. This is not the first time. Every time Zhang and Erlangzi quarreled, they would go back to their mother, and Erlangzi also went to her parents' home to look for her many times.
"Damn, if you have the ability, you will never come back. Who are you threatening? It's like this every time."
Erlangzi became more and more angry. He kicked the door open and then walked in. Seeing the cold pot and cold stove, he felt even more uncomfortable. When he thought about Zhang's eyes were cold, he could not stand his macho spirit. After thinking about it, Erlangzi decided to go to Zhang's parents' house to call her back.
After figuring it out, Erlangzi took a sorghum steamed bun from the basin to find Zhang. When Erlangzi arrived at Zhang's mother's house, it was already dark and knocked on the door of Zhang's house. As a result, no one came out to open the door, which seriously hit Erlangzi's man's self-esteem.
"Zhang, come out for me, if I don't come out, I will smash the door."
Erlangzi yelled outside the door, making the people inside have no choice but to come out and open the door.
"Erlangzi, what are you doing in our house? After leaving last time, didn't you say you would never come again? Also, my daughter is so good, but you always beat or scold her and treat my daughter as something? If you are so rude, be careful, I will ask Master Guan to arrest you."
Zhang's mother, Qin, was originally a tigress. Now that she saw that her daughter was angry again, she immediately started to curse Erlangzi. Erlangzi himself had a bad temper. When her mother-in-law scolded him, he immediately kicked Qinzi down. Qin was so breathless that he could only lie on the ground and moaned constantly.
"Mom... Erlangzi, why do you beast, hit my mother, you bastard..."
Zhang was afraid that his mother would attack Erlangzi, so she sneaked out. However, she didn't expect that before his mother could attack Erlangzi, Erlangzi kicked her mother. How could Zhang feel comfortable? She immediately rushed out and pointed at Erlangzi and started to scold him.
"I think you are really going to die. You dare to scold me. Let's see how I beat you to death today."
Erlangzi felt so depressed that he couldn't come out, so he scattered it on Zhang. Zhang was beaten so hard that he could not get up. Qin saw that his daughter was beaten, but she didn't care about it. She grabbed the wooden stick next to her and beat Erlangzi on the head.
Erlangzi was concentrating on hitting Zhang, so he did not see Qin hitting the wooden stick on his head. When Erlangzi felt pain coming from his head, his eyes fell into darkness.
After Erlangzi fell to the ground, Qin immediately helped Zhang up, but when he looked back at Erlangzi, he found that Erlangzi's head was covered in blood, his eyes staring tightly in the sky and could not be closed.
"Mom, he won't die, right?"
Zhang had also seen dead people. Now Erlangzi looks similar to dead people, so she immediately asked Qin Shi tremblingly. Qin Shi was also shocked by Erlangzi's appearance. She slowly approached Erlangzi, and then tried Erlangzi's breath with her hands, and found that he was really angry.
"He's out of anger, what should I do? I've killed someone..."
"Don't be afraid, mom, calm down. It's him wrong. He beat his daughter and mom killed him. There is no one now, so let's deal with his body first!"
"What if someone finds out?"
Although Qin was very fierce, she was not very brave. She was the first time she did this murder. Zhang had studied, so she naturally became a little braver, so she immediately gave her mother some advice.
"Don't worry, as long as we don't say it, no one will know. Erlangzi often goes to the casino, and always owes debts, and there are many thieves. If his body is really discovered, we can say that his enemy has come to us and has nothing to do with us. Remember, you must not reveal it."
"Is this possible? If someone sees through it, will my mother be finished in her whole life..."
Qin started crying as she said that. At this moment, she was really panicked and didn't know what to do. Seeing that Qin was really scared, Zhang kept comforting her mother.
"Mom! Don't be afraid, everything has a daughter. If someone really sees through it, then my daughter will say that he hits you, and my daughter can't see it, so she accidentally beat him to death. Everything has nothing to do with you, Mom, don't be afraid!"
"Daughter! It's all bad for my mother. I shouldn't have hit him on the head just now. If it were his body, he wouldn't have died. It's all my fault."
"Mom! How can you think so? Actually, my daughter has long wanted to kill him. If the second lame person is not dead, her daughter will suffer from his torture. Now that he is dead, her daughter is completely relieved. So, you are helping her daughter directly. Don't be afraid of being sad anymore. My daughter will accompany you in the future, and no one dares to beat and scold us again. Everything will pass."
Zhang kept comforting Qin. After a while, Qin stopped crying, but when he saw Erlangzi's body, Qin became at a loss again. She had never dealt with the body, so she naturally didn't know what to do next, so she could only ask Zhang.
"Daughter! What should we do with Erlangzi's body? You can't just keep it here! If you are seen by a passing person, then we will be speechless."
"Let's throw the body into the river while it's dark! Tie a big stone on his body so that his body will not float and no one will find it."
"Good solution, then let's start acting quickly! While there is no one yet."
Qin said that, and then went to the house to pull a cart. She and Zhang worked together to carry Erlangzi's body into the car, then covered Erlangzi's body with a sack, then made a bag of sweet potatoes and pushed the cart towards the river.
The reason why they took sweet potatoes was to cover up their real purpose. If they met someone along the way, they could also use sweet potatoes as a matter of fact. Fortunately, they did not see a single figure when they arrived by the river, which calmed their nervous hearts a little.
"Mom, you get the body down first, I'll go find Shi Tou."
"Okay, be careful, don't be seen."
Qin looked around, then whispered to remind his daughter, and then started to carry the body. Zhang was looking for a large stone that could suppress Erlangzi's body.
After Zhang brought the stone, Qin had already pushed Erlangzi's body to the riverside. Zhang pressed the big stone on Erlangzi's chest, and then tied the stone and the body together with Erlangzi's clothes. After the work was done, Zhang and Qin pushed Erlangzi and the stone into the river.
With a "thump", the water splashed very high, and Erlangzi's body quickly sank. After waiting for a few minutes, Qin and Zhang pushed the car home.
After Liu Shoucai and Badou came back, it was already midnight. They should have come back early, but they drank some wine later, so they fell asleep accidentally, so they came back so late.
"Oh, you still know how to come back!"
"Xiaobai, what do you mean?"
As soon as Liu Shoucai and the others entered the door, they were mocked by Xiaobai. Because they were so angry that Liu Shoucai asked back.
"What I mean is that you still know how to come back, but you thought you wouldn't come back. I was so lazy that you returned something early today, but you didn't see you coming back on your own initiative, just wait."
"He found something so soon? I thought it would take a long time."
"I have told him that he can only give him three days to go long, and he agreed. In three days, if he doesn't get back the things, we can deal with him as much as possible."
"Okay, we are bored anyway, and it's good to find someone to play with. If Erlangzi becomes a good person because of this, then we will have great merits, but I'm worried that he will be anxious to jump over the wall."
"What's the meaning?"
Xiaobai looked at Liu Shoucai in confusion. Liu Shoucai sighed and said, "What I am worried about now is that he will steal other people's things in order to repay our things. That naughty man has no serious job and will not have money to redeem our things. So I am worried that he will go astray. At that time, we will help others in disguise and harm others in disguise."
"Then what do you think should be done? You can't just forget it! We can't come back to those things, but I really can't accept it if I just let Erlangzi go."
"I can't accept it either. Brother Liu, let's think of a complete solution! Anyway, there are three days left. Why don't we go and see Erlangzi tomorrow to see how he found our things, and then draw up a solution based on the situation."
"This method is good, so let's listen to Badou. I'll wait until we checked Erlangzi first tomorrow, and then we will find a way to solve the problem together."
After Liu Shoucai finished speaking, he went back to his room to sleep, and Guigusong and the others dispersed. At noon the next day, Liu Shoucai and the others went to find Erlangzi, but they searched for Erlangzi for a long time on the street, but they did not find Erlangzi's figure. They inquired about many Erlangzi's friends, but no one knew where he went.
"It's really strange. I just heard Erlangzi's friend say that he has disappeared since he left the casino yesterday. Usually, he has gone to the casino at this time, but he has never appeared today, and no one has seen him. It's really strange. His friends all think it's strange."
"Is something going on?"
"What can happen? Didn't he be fine when he left his ancestor's house yesterday? Forget it, go to Erlangzi's house to look for it first. I heard that his house is not far away."
Liu Shoucai had no choice but to go to Erlangzi's house to find him first. However, when Liu Shoucai and the others arrived at Erlangzi's house, they found that Erlangzi's house had been locked all the time, and it was obvious that there was no one at home.
"Damn Erlangzi, could he run away with his wife?"
"It's possible. After all, he owes so much foreign debt, and our things are worth a lot of money. He probably chose to run away because he couldn't repay them. Brother Guigu, please take a look at where Erlangzi is now."
"Okay, you guys wait a moment."
Guigusong began to spy as he said that, but a few minutes later, Guigusong looked at everyone with a serious look on his face, making everyone confused.
"How is it? Where is he now?"
"Don't mention it, he died last night. He was beaten to death by his mother-in-law with a stick. His mother-in-law and his wife were afraid of suing, so they sank his body into the river."
"Damn, why is this happening? Wouldn't we indirectly harm a person? If we didn't look for him yesterday, maybe he wouldn't have died."
"This has nothing to do with us. He deserves it, so it's not our fault. But what are the two people Zhang and Qin? You can't just let them just forget it! After all, killing is illegal."
"Let's go and ask Zhang. I want to see how capable Zhang is, and he dares to cover up his mother's murder."
Although Liu Shoucai looked down on Erlangzi, he did not want Erlangzi to die like this. Now Zhang and Qin sank Erlangzi's body into the river. This is itself disrespect for the deceased. Liu Shoucai, who has been doing business in a deadly manner for a long time, has an inexplicable awe of the corpse.
Guigusong and Badou looked at each other, then followed Liu Shoucai silently toward Zhang's house. Zhang and Qin were still scared about what happened last night. They originally planned to go out for a trip today, but before they even went out, they heard someone knocking on the door.
"Daughter! Could it be that the official mission came? They found Erlangzi's body..."
"No, don't worry! It's impossible for the official to come. They can't find the body so soon. Maybe the person next door has come. Mom, don't worry, be calm, wait and see my eyes."
Zhang knew that his mother was really scared, so he quickly asked her mother to go back to the room temporarily. After Zhang came out and opened the door, he found that the people in front of him were all unfamiliar. Because Zhang rarely went out, he didn't know Liu Shoucai and the others at all.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Zhang, let me ask you, how did Erlangzi die last night?"
"You...I don't know what you are talking about? How could my husband die? Isn't he in the gambling house?"
Although Zhang was frightened, she still tried hard to shock herself. Although she didn't understand why Liu Shoucai knew about her husband's tragic death last night, she didn't dare to admit it casually, after all, that was responsible.
"Zhang, don't pretend to be in front of us. Last night, Erlangzi hit you, your mother accidentally hit him on the head with a stick, but accidentally beat him to death. You took advantage of the fact that no one sank his body into the river. The body is still in the river. If you don't admit it, how about we go for a test of the body together?"
Liu Shoucai's words made Zhang squat directly on the ground. She originally thought that no one knew about the secret, but she didn't expect that Liu Shoucai and the others would know everything, and they knew so clearly. Of course, if Liu Shoucai and the others did not use magic, they would naturally not know so much.
"How did you know this? Last night, we didn't see anyone from beginning to end."
"We know, of course there are ways we know. Although Erlangzi deserves to die, his body cannot be dealt with like that. If the rotten virus of the corpse pollutes the river water, people around the river will suffer. I believe you don't want to see anyone have an accident!"
Liu Shoucai said a few more words to Zhang, and Zhang sighed and said, "I beg you to let my mother go. She can't stand this stimulation. She was already scared to death last night. She finally settled down today. I am willing to bear all the guilt for my mother. If I had known that things would have evolved to this point now, I would not have married Erlangzi at the beginning."
Zhang looked sad and desperate. When she married Erlangzi, she felt something was wrong. But who would have thought that the matchmaker would actually make some moves, so she had to marry Erlangzi. She also let down the child of her childhood with her.
Now that I think about it, everything is tears! After Zhang followed Liu Shoucai and the others to the river, Badou and Xiaobai brought Erlangzi's body up. At this time, everyone onlookers came over. Even though Liu Shoucai drove them, those people were not afraid of Liu Shoucai's drive to drive them up even if they were tirelessly watching.
"Master Liu, are you really the Spirit-Reigning Man?"
"Yes! I won't lie to you. Erlangzi stole our things, so I asked him to return the things. But I didn't expect that he had just returned a jade pendant and suffered an accident. Forget it, let's not talk about this, cremate his body first."
Erlangzi's body was eaten by fish and shrimps in the river, so his face and body became bumpy. In addition, the body was soaked and swollen, which greatly affected his usual beauty.
"Master Liu, how did Erlangzi die? Wasn't he okay yesterday?"
The pawn shopkeeper also watched over. He felt very strange when he saw Erlangzi die. Yesterday, when Erlangzi went to his shop, he was still very arrogant, but he didn't expect that after only one night, Erlangzi had turned into a corpse.
"This has something to do with you. If he asked you yesterday and gave it to him, he wouldn't have happened to him now. The shopkeeper, you should pay attention. When you go to bed at night, you must burn a few more pieces of paper money for Erlangzi. Be careful that he will go to you at night."
Liu Shoucai's last two words were deliberately scared the shopkeeper, which was also to punish the pawnshop's greed. The shopkeeper was frightened by Liu Shoucai's words, and hurriedly turned around and left the riverside, not daring to continue watching the fun.
As soon as the pawn shopkeeper left, the onlookers dispersed, because Liu Shoucai's words just now were really scary, and everyone was afraid that Erlangzi would go to find them at night.
As soon as everyone dispersed, Liu Shoucai directly burned Erlangzi's body with the Tianhuo Talisman, and then asked Zhang to take the ashes back. Zhang originally didn't want to take them back, but was afraid that Erlangzi would take revenge on him, so he could only bite the bullet and bury Erlangzi's ashes to the orchard.
