Chapter 9 Who is the murderer?
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Tianyou woke up and sat on the ground and cried loudly. The Xiao family lived in a remote area, and there were only about ten families around. At this time, they were shocked by his crying and came to find out what had happened.
Seeing this tragic scene, the neighbors were shocked and timidly avoided it. Several people who usually make friends with the Xiao family helped Xiao Tian up.
Xiao Tian didn't know anything at this time. He only knew how to mourn and cry. The fat man squatted beside him with tears on his fat face.
Father Xiao arranged for someone to report to the city owner, and someone else went to buy white cloth and other funeral supplies. ( Yuanji mainland custom: After death, people are washed with clean water and buried with white cloth. It means that he came to this world naked when he was born, and he didn't take anything away when he went back.)
Xiao Tian cried for a while, and gradually stopped. He sobbed and got up and went to the house to inspect it. The more he looked at it, the more surprised he became: all the cabinets in the home were opened, and the contents were thrown all over the ground. Even the rice jar was dumped to the ground. Obviously, the murderer was looking for something, but no property was lost. It doesn't seem to be the work of ordinary thieves. Although my father has not made any progress in his practice in recent years, after all, it is the seventh level of elemental spirit, and it is impossible for ordinary thieves to hurt his father.
Xiao Tian recalled carefully and had never heard that his father had any enemies. The father and son had no dispute with the world, and it was impossible to hinder others. He caught a glimpse of the big bowl of porridge on the table, and his sadness came from it. He couldn't help crying again.
A pair of slender hands reached over and held his hand. He looked back. In his tears, he saw Lei Shuang's red eyes and thin tears flowing down his cheeks.
Xiao Tian suddenly saw his best friend, couldn't help bursting into tears and crying loudly, "Shuanger, my father... Father, he was killed!"
Lei Shuang held his hand and turned his head and dared not look at the miserable situation in the room. He knew that he could not comfort him at this time, but accompanied him to cry in a low voice and pulled him out of the room.
Lei Sheng, the owner of the city, has been patrolling the yard for a long time with more than a dozen people. When he saw Lei Shuang pulling Xiao Tian out, he didn't say anything and took several people into the house.
After a while, Lei Shengyuan came out and asked Xiao Tian, "Your father died not long ago, just two or three hours ago." After a pause, he said, "Hasn't your father offended anyone? Looking at the blood stains on the table, his fingers were cut off when he was alive. Does the murderer have a grudge against your family when he tortured him so much? Where were you last night?
Xiao Tian shook his head blankly: "I have never heard my father talk about any enemies. My father has no quarrel with the world. How can he have an enemy? I practiced in the back mountain last night and fell asleep unconsciously.
Speaking of this, he felt a sense of mind: Is it possible that the bad guys are coming for me? What is that for?
Thunder foresight saw that he looked different and asked, "Have you stolen anything precious in your house?"
Xiao Tian shook his head: "There is nothing valuable at home."
Thunder saw him like this, and he had to comfort him: "If you die, you can't come back to life. Let's bury your father first and then talk about it in the long run. Don't worry, this matter is on uncle. You must find the murderer and kill him to avenge your father!"
Xiao Tian has been immersed in grief since morning. After all, he is young and has no opinion when he encounters such a big event. At this time, after thunder, he woke up like a dream:
"Yes, Lei Bo is right. I want to avenge my father! But who is the murderer? Who killed his father and tortured him so much? For what? For what?! The father has no dispute with the world and has never argued with anyone. Why did the murderer cut off his fingers one by one to torture him? What on earth does the murderer want?!"
His heart moved, was it for that volume of explosive formula? But no one knows that I have a secret?
Xiao Yuanzhong has been buried for more than ten days. Xiao Tian just sat in front of his parents' grave all day and cried in a low voice for the first few days. Later, he didn't even have tears, just sat there in a daze. The fat man didn't even practice his skills, so he sat with him. Father Xiao sent food to the grave every day and watched the two teenagers eat it. Lei Shuang comes to see him every day and sometimes brings him some food.
That day, Lei Shuang came to see Xiao Tian again and knew that he couldn't eat, so he brought him some fruits.
Seeing that he was still sitting on the grave and drooping, he pulled him up with the fat man and walked around. At this time, it was lunchtime, and every family had smoke. Xiao Tian looked at his room from afar and was deserted without a trace of smoke. He couldn't help crying again.
Seeing that he was sad, Lei Shuang said to him, "You can't live in your house, or you can move to my house?" She peeked at Xiao Tian and saw that Xiao Tian didn't say anything. She thought she was worried that her father would not allow it. She said, "That's what my father meant. He was worried that the bad guy would hurt you again. Yesterday, he told me to take you to my home."
This is a good way. The fat man hurriedly agreed on behalf of Xiao Tian: "Okay, okay, it's closer to the market. It's more convenient to buy something."
Lei Shuang's cheeks were flushed, and he remembered what Lei Shengyuan said to her yesterday: "Shuanger, the child of the Xiao family is also pitiful. The old house can't live in. You tell Lei Fu and ask him to clean up a room and bring Tianer to live in our house for a period of time. After a year and a half, things have faded, and it's not too late for him to move back. As the lord of the city, my father was also uneasy about such a thing. You have always been friends with him and persuade him more. Alas, somehow, such a big disaster happened.
This morning, the housekeeper Lei Fu came to see her and took her to see the room. It was a two-open room, which was very quiet and elegant. There was a bedroom in a study, and the four walls were plastered with white dust. There was a table and a chair in the study, and there was a small bookshelf with some scrolls on the shelf. There is a small fire element lamp hanging in front of the desk.
Lei Fu was afraid that she would not be satisfied and explained with a smile: "The master ordered that the Xiao family has just suffered a great change, and it is inconvenient to be too luxurious."
Lei Shuang was very happy: "My father is the lord of a city. He never cares about the family's family affairs. The family affairs are handed over to Aunt Juan. This time, he was so careful that he personally told Lei Fu and noticed these small details. My father really attaches great importance to Brother Tian.
Thinking of this, he blushed and added, "The room has been cleaned up. My father specially ordered Lei Fu to arrange it. It's not far from the 'Tingfeng Building' where I live."
Xiao Tian was hesitant and couldn't go back to live in the old house, but he didn't want to go to Lei Shuang's house. Lei Shuang and his daughter know that he is good to him, but it is not a way to rely on others. Hearing that Lei Shuang asked him to live in Lei's house, he just shook his head.
Seeing that Lei Shuang insisted, he was embarrassed to say more. She wanted to make him happy. She stood up, reached out to pull Xiao Tian, and said, "Brother Tian, how beautiful the birds in the woods over there are. Please help me catch one."
The fat man echoed: "Yes, I caught it and helped Lei Shuang weave a bird cage to raise it." |
Xiao Tian knew that she wanted to make herself happy, but it was not easy to brush her mind, so he stood up and walked to the woods.
A group of birds in the forest chirped and didn't know that a big disaster was coming. Xiao Tian followed Lei Shuang to the edge of the forest, but suddenly remembered, "Oh, I haven't practiced for more than ten days. Lei Bobo said he wanted to avenge me. How can he avenge his father? I want to practice and avenge my father in the future!"
At the thought of this, he cheered up and said to Lei Shuang, "Shuanger, I'm going home to live. Please thank my uncle for me. My uncle is kind to me."
Lei Shuang had no choice but to say softly, "Then it's better for me to go back and clean your home."
There was a trace of cunning on the fat man's face: "You two go back. I'll go and see those condoms yesterday. Maybe there will be some prey."
