Chapter 4581 Black Lotus Sect
Yang Ruoqing said: "This is not over yet. Tang Yazi is settling brother Zhou Wang's debt, not even Goudan's debt!"
"That dog How do you calculate the egg?" Zhou Wang asked.
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, raised her hand and pinched her ear, and said: "Zhou Xia is still stubborn and stubborn, even if she doesn't admit her mistake, that man is still sensible and cut off one of his ears to apologize! "
"Hiss..." Zhou Wang and Blacksmith Luo gasped at the same time, while Xiao Huan was so shocked that he almost fainted.
Since you haven't fainted, you have to face reality.
This reality of debt collection really makes people relieve their hatred. Xiaohuan's tears welled up again. This time, they were tears of relief that released hatred and grievances.
"This... is a bit bloody, will anyone die?" Blacksmith Luo had never heard of such a cruel debt collection method in his life, and while he was relieved, he couldn't help but feel worried.
Luo Fengtang glanced at Blacksmith Luo and said: "Uncle, don't worry, I am sensible and will not kill anyone."
Although he is the general who protects the country, Da Qi is a man who speaks In a country of laws, murder must be paid with life, and the government is not a vegetarian.
The government can intervene in disputes or major cases in aristocratic circles such as princes and counts, but because these are powerful people who can shake the ground with just a stamp of their feet, sometimes the local government may be restrained in handling cases. Under certain circumstances, there are also specialized three-law divisions.
The Three Law Departments of Da Qi were founded by the first emperor, with the Ministry of Punishment, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple as the three law departments.
For example, the case of the eldest prince Qi Xingming's rebellion more than ten years ago was a joint trial of the three divisions.
So if Luo Fengtang, the great general who protects the country, kills someone just to seek revenge without sufficient evidence, he will be in trouble if the victim sues him to the Yamen or even the capital.
A series of negative effects such as the impeachment of the imperial censor, attacks by political opponents, and the loss of popular support and military morale...
Therefore, even if those powerful people colluded with the local government and did many things such as murder, arson and bullying of men and women, these things cannot be seen in the light after all. In terms of face, they must respect the emperor and the laws established by the emperor. and obedience.
"Uncle, don't worry, I won't get my hands dirty just to kill a bed bug." Luo Fengtang emphasized again.
On the side, Yang Ruoqing glanced at Blacksmith Luo and Zhou Wang, guessing that they might not have understood the other meaning in Luo Fengtang's words.
So he also spoke: "Uncle, cousin, we found a secret passage under the bed of Zhou Xia and his wife's bedroom."
"Secret passage? Rich people should All of them, right? I heard they are used to hide money." Blacksmith Luo said.
Yang Ruoqing said: "There is also money hidden in this secret passage, but not much, but that is not the point. The point is that at the end of the secret passage is a secret room, which is filled with smoke and fire and enshrines a weird Buddha statue. ”
"That Buddha statue, we also found it in the secret room of a good man in Huguang County many years ago. It is the Maitreya Buddha believed in by the Black Lotus Sect!"
"What? Zhou Xia and his wife are actually with the Black Lotus Sect. Does it matter?" Blacksmith Luo was so shocked that his face turned pale.
Zhou Wang and Xiaohuan also had frightened eyes.
Xiaohuan looked at Zhou Wang and said, "Brother Zhou Wang, thank you for saving your life. If you were targeted by the Black Lotus Sect, our whole family would be doomed!"
Zhou Wang also blinked and swallowed hard to stop his heartbeat from jumping out of his throat.
But the more exciting words are yet to come.
Yang Ruoqing continued: "The Black Lotus Sect likes to worship boys and girls. In the corner of the secret room of Zhou Xia's house, we found two pairs of dried skeletons. Visual inspection should be that they are no more than ten years old. No doubt about the child." Xiaohuan's face turned pale, and he raised his hand to cover his mouth, too frightened to speak.
Luo Fengtang looked at everyone and said: "We have already reported this matter to the official. Now, the county magistrate should have arrived there with the official officials. I believe this news will come in two days. It will spread throughout the city.”
"The laws of Daqi stipulate that those who believe in the Black Lotus Sect and use human lives to perform evil sacrifices are considered witchcraft and must be punished. Therefore, Zhou Xia and his wife will not escape death this time!"
"Zhou Xia is going to be beheaded too?" Blacksmith Luo asked in shock.
From this look, you can still see a hint of unbearability.
The same is true for Zhou Wang, after all, she is his biological sister...
But Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang don't think so.
"Uncle, I am both public and private. If I find out about this kind of thing, I will never tolerate it and hide it without retribution!" Luo Fengtang and Luo Blacksmith said seriously.
“The two children in the corner, they were two living lives, just gone.”
“This is just because Qing’er and I broke in tonight and found out. Before the discovery, who knew how disabled the two of them were? How many children were killed?”
“Every child is raised by his father and mother, and every child is the treasure of the family. The child was tortured and killed by the two of them like a chicken. How can such a thing be done? Are you hiding it? Will your conscience be at ease?" Luo Fengtang asked in a low voice.
Blacksmith Luo was speechless.
His face was dejected, and his eyes were full of disappointment.
"Zhou Xia... How can Xia'er do such a thing? She was such a well-behaved girl when she was a child, she spoke softly and was good at needlework. How did this child become like this? ”
Blacksmith Luo couldn’t bear to say any more, his voice was choked with sobs.
Zhou Wang also said in a deep voice: "If she is really beheaded, I don't know how to explain it to my mother..."
Yang Ruoqing turned around, very serious He said: "You will have to explain what you have to say, and you will pay for your life with your life. Even if she didn't kill those children with her own hands, at least she was an accomplice."
"If we don't report it to the official now and let these devils receive the punishment they deserve, do we still expect them to change their minds and turn over a new leaf? Cousin, touch your chest and tell yourself, do you think this is possible?"
"Zhou Xia's behavior over the years has proved that she is the kind of person who can correct her mistakes after she realizes them?"
Xiaohuan sneered and wiped away the tears on her face: "In the capital, I She is Zhou Xia's personal maid. I know exactly what kind of person she is."
"She will never know her mistakes. Her methods are insidious, vicious, and terrifying."
“She can really deny her relatives. If she cared about family ties a little bit, she wouldn’t do that to Goudan, let alone beat her own brother to death!”
At this point, Xiaohuan turned around and looked at Zhou Wang with pained eyes: "Brother Zhou Wang, do you know that she is determined to kill you this time? Your life is gone, and the two sons are gone." How to deal with it?”
“My mother-in-law is old, and I am not that capable of raising two children. They came to take the Goudan brothers to the county town. One day, they suddenly announced that the child had gone missing. In fact, they used it to make offerings to their gods and Buddhas. You are under the Nine Springs, can you rest in peace? ?”
