73 Chapter 73

◎The order is wrong, there is something fishy◎

Three minutes later, the program crew got in touch with the police officer.

The big screen was split into two halves, and a middle-aged man in a police uniform appeared on the screen.

"Hello, Master Qianyang, I am Chen Xun."

"Hello."

Chen Xun's background is already in a mental hospital.

"This case was the first criminal case I handled since I joined the police station, and it still leaves a deep impression on me."

Qian Yang said: "Could you please give me the details of the crime scene?"

"Okay." Chen Xun nodded. "By the time the police arrived at the scene, most of the villagers already knew what was going on. They had moved He Xiuwen and the child's bodies downstairs. The crime scene had already been destroyed, so we couldn't conduct an on-site investigation. We only confirmed with Liang Jun's parents that they had left half an hour before the incident. Liang Jun and He Xiuwen were the only ones home at the time."

"There were no signs of damage to the doors or windows, and no signs of a struggle inside the house, so it can be basically determined that there was no third person at the scene."

"Combined with the villagers' testimony, this confirms that there was a significant rift between Liang Jun and his wife."

Qianyang nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I understand."

Chen Xun and the police officers accompanying him came to a ward. The door was open and sounds of pain were heard from inside.

Chen Xun explained, "The nurse said he's been in this state ever since the photographer came that day."

【Crocodile tears.】

[Your wife and children have no place to cry.]

What's the point of crying now, you idiot?

[I really don't want to see this person. Why are you pretending to be heartbroken now?]

【Bad luck! 】

"Liang Jun?" Chen Xun called out. The man was sitting with his back to the window, his shoulders shaking from crying.

"Xiuwen...Xiuwen..."

After walking a few steps forward, I heard his murmuring voice.

Compared with the previous video, the man has lost a lot of weight and looks even more skinny.

"Liang Jun?" Chen Xun stepped forward and patted him lightly. "No response."

Qian Yang glanced at him and said, "It's okay, don't disturb him, his spirit has been extremely broken."

Chen Xun nodded and asked, "Then what should I do?"

"After the incident, the Liang family's old couple were heartbroken and left here not long after. I also tried to find them, but to no avail."

"Let me see the palm of his left hand."

Just then the staff notified Sang Chen to bring her small cloth bag over.

Qianyang took out the Wentian Plate from the cloth bag and looked at Liang Jun's thin hands on the screen.

Chen Xun turned his palm over, revealing the messy lines on the palm.

Qian Yang frowned, "This person's fate is not good, and he is destined to have a difficult life."

"Look at the sky, I'll check the direction."

"good."

Chen Xun pulled the camera toward the sky. Qian Yang looked at the direction in the camera while turning the wheel on the Questioning Heaven Plate.

"To the east, twelve, by the river, heavy rain, swimming fish, upper stop..." Qianyang looked at the corresponding position on the roulette wheel, and the porcelain spoon in the center slowly turned.

"Mukouxing, Shuangmulin, Xinglin Town."

"My father is dead and my mother is sick."

Qian Yang raised his head and said, "Liang Jun's parents are in Xinglin Town. His father has passed away, and his mother is suffering from many illnesses."

"Xinglin Town?" Small waterway.

Chen Xun said, "Xinglin Town? It's about six or seven hours' drive from here. We can drive there right away."

Qian Yang said: "Okay..."

[Ah? Liang's father passed away?]

[More than a decade has passed. Anything could have happened, especially in such a deeply sad situation.]

【Really, I’ve ruined the whole family! 】

[Alas, outsiders really don't know how to explain this matter. I don't think either of the old couple can get over it.]

[Mother Liang fell ill alone... Such a sin.]

[(Pointing fingers) Xinglin Town is Hongya City, right?]

Chen Xun said: "Yes."

Qianyang said: "Yes."

[Then you don't need to come over, police officer. I'm here now.]

Qianyang: “…”

How can this not be considered as having students all over the world?

[Wow! We really have people from all over the place here.]

This is so convenient!

【Just right, we don’t have to wait until tomorrow to find out the follow-up. 】

Chen Xun said, "Master Qianyang, since there are other people over there, we won't go over there. We have people in the bureau watching your live broadcast all the time. If there is anything you need our cooperation with, just let us know."

"Okay, thank you."

After ending the call, Xiao Shui exclaimed, "They actually sent someone to watch your live broadcast?"

Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh: "It's amazing."

[The same thing happened with the guy who pretended to be mentally ill last time. While we were still discussing this, the police had already arrived at the hospital entrance.]

[It is reasonable to suspect that the police have been following Qianyang's live broadcast.]

【No doubt, this is absolute.】

[Qianyang's influence is too great. No matter what the reason, the authorities will have people keep an eye on her.]

[I think Qianyang is being watched wherever he goes. He absolutely has to report before going abroad.]

Qian Yang said: "It's not that exaggerated, it's just that my colleagues from the Laotou Street Police Station occasionally contact me."

Why do you think they contacted you?

"have no idea."

Qian Yang held up the Questioning Heaven Plate and said, "Director, please contact that person."

"Okay, we're in touch with him."

After waiting for two minutes, the big screen was split into two again.

A boy appeared on the screen, holding an umbrella and standing under the eaves.

"Master Qianyang, I'm Azhe. Your predictions are very accurate. It rains frequently here, and it also rained lightly today."

"Hello, I'm sorry for the trouble."

"It's okay, it's okay."

As he said this, he flipped the camera to the rear.

Xinglin Town is a remote little place. Most of the houses are small brick houses that are a bit old. The ground is paved with bluestone. In the misty rain, it looks quiet and peaceful.

"Wow! This place feels like a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. The pace of life must be very slow."

Ah Zhe said: "Yes, this is my grandma's house. I like to come here to escape the heat in the summer."

I quite like this atmosphere.

[Yes, I hope Mama Liang and Papa Liang can live a better life in such a beautiful place.]

[Sigh, if it rains all day, won't I feel even more depressed?]

[It is possible, and it is prone to moisture, which is not good for the legs and feet of the elderly.]

Qian Yang asked, "Is it convenient? I'll take you to find Liang Jun's mother."

Ah Zhe nodded quickly and said, "Convenient, convenient! It's especially convenient. I just lost my job not long ago and I'm going moldy staying at home all day. It's a good opportunity to go out for a walk."

"However, I don't stay here for long each year, mostly in the summer, so I don't go out much. I don't know if there's a family with the surname Liang in this town."

Qian Yang said: "It's okay, just follow the directions I give you."

"Go straight to the right first. I'll tell you when you change direction."

"Okay!"

Ever since he discovered that the people down the mountain couldn't tell east, west, south, and north, Qianyang only had to use front, back, left, and right to remind them.

Azhe walked into the rain, and the raindrops hit the umbrella. Crystal clear water droplets dripped along the umbrella ribs one after another, like a string of bead curtains.

Azhe held an umbrella in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, looking around from time to time.

"There aren't many young people in town, and on rainy days you hardly see anyone on the streets."

The rain was falling hazily. Azhe walked forward without meeting anyone. He could hear nothing around him except the sound of rain.

"Master Qianyang, you said before that some places have heavier yin energy. In places like this where it rains frequently, would the yin energy be heavier?" Azhe asked curiously.

Xiao Shui agreed, "Master Qianyang, I'd like to know that too."

Qian Yang said, "Water belongs to Yin. With constant rain, the soil is moist, so it is certain that the Yin energy is heavy."

It was raining heavily and dark clouds covered the sky, making it look very gloomy and depressing.

Walking in the long corridor, Azhe couldn't help but shiver.

"Wouldn't it be easy for ghosts to gather here? No wonder it's so cool in the summer." Azhe sighed.

"Turn right."

"Okay."

Coming to a fork in the road, Azhe turned into another alley.

He shone the camera in all directions and said, "Wow!"

Suddenly, he seemed to see something and was startled.

"Hello, Auntie." Azhe pointed the camera towards the house on the left, and an old lady was standing quietly in the window on the second floor.

There was no light in her room, and it was pitch black behind her. A person was standing at the window, wearing a dark blue dress. There was no expression on his face, and he was staring straight in the direction of Azhe.

As if she didn't hear Azhe's voice, the old lady didn't respond.

"It's quite scary." Azhe said to himself. He put away the camera and continued walking forward. "My grandma said that many elderly people here don't have children. They often stay at home alone and don't go out much."

"Some elderly people are getting older and have difficulty walking, and because it rains, most of the time it's the government that delivers them food."

[Hiss... Don't tell me, this is really scary.]

[It feels a bit like a horror movie.]

I actually find it sad that the young and capable have left this place, leaving some childless elderly people to stay here their entire lives, perhaps without even anyone to talk to.

[Fortunately, the local government has been helping them.]

[From this point of view, it seems that Liang's father and mother may not be doing well either.]

Azhe walked along the alley, turned several directions, and came to the outskirts of the town, a place next to the mountain.

"This is the back mountain. There should be few people coming here from the town."

Qianyang said: "It's just in front."

Azhe was stunned for two seconds. "Here? Does anyone live here? I don't think there are any houses nearby."

"Just keep going forward."

"Okay!"

Azhe walked along the mountain road for a distance. Fortunately, the ground was muddy but not steep. Apart from some mud on his clothes, there was no danger.

When we came to a slope, we saw a small shed in the distance. There was a waterproof plastic shed on it, which seemed to be made of wood.

There is a small window and wooden door next to it. Through the small window, you can see a light bulb hanging in the air, emitting warm yellow light.

Ah Zhe was surprised: "There are actually people living here?"

"You go and take a look."

"Okay."

Azhe quickened his pace and walked over. The sound of rain hitting the plastic shed was particularly clear. He walked to the door and was about to raise his hand to knock when he heard a muffled cough from inside.

"Wait." Ah Zhe stopped and walked to the other side of the cabin, asking in a low voice, "Master Qianyang, what should I say when I go in later? Will it bring up her sad memories?"

Qian Yang thought for a moment and said, "Don't tell her our purpose yet. Let me observe the situation first."

"Okay!"

Azhe put on his headphones, walked back to the door and knocked.

“Knock knock—”

The coughing in the room paused for a moment, and then an old voice came and asked, "Who?"

Ah Zhe said, "I'm just passing by. The rain is so heavy. Could you let me in to take shelter?"

"Go away, there's no place for you to take shelter from the rain here," said the old man.

"Grandma, it's raining and the road is hard to walk on. Can I wait until the rain is a little lighter before I go? Please let me go in and rest for a while. I'm so cold."

The sound in the room gradually died down. Soon, the wooden door was opened a crack, and a white-haired old lady appeared behind the door.

Her face was haggard, full of age spots and wrinkles, and her eyes were cloudy and lifeless. "Come in."

"Thank you!" Azhe put away his umbrella and walked into the wooden house.

The room was quite warm, and although the lights were not bright, you could still see this small place.

There was a cracked wooden table next to the door, with a chair on each side. There were some black things hanging on the wall. Although no one knew what they were, some of them had already grown moldy and hairy.

A little further inside was a wooden bed, and the quilt and pillowcases were also dusty.

Finally, on the right is a small kitchen, and on the left is a mound of earth half a person's height.

"Sit down." The old lady said indifferently.

Ah Zhe walked towards the chair on the right, but was suddenly stopped by her: "Sit on the left chair."

Azhe didn't understand what he meant, but after all, he was in someone else's house, so he went around to the chair on the left and sat down.

"Grandma, why can't I sit on the chair on the right? Is it broken?"

The old lady was lame and limped forward without answering his question.

At this time, Qianyang's voice came from the headphones.

"You don't want to know."

Ah Zhe didn't know what he was thinking about, and his laughter was a little stiff. He then asked, "Grandma, what about that little pile of dirt? Wouldn't it be inconvenient when cooking?"

The old lady stopped, turned around and looked at him, "Leave after you've taken shelter from the rain."

Ah Zhe said awkwardly: "Oh..."

【What's the meaning? 】

Why can't I sit on the chair on the right?

I don't know why, but it makes me feel a little creepy.

What is that mound?

[Alas, most of the things in grandma's house are moldy. I wonder how she lives here alone.]

Qianyang looked at the old lady in the camera and sighed almost inaudibly.

"Grandma, do you live here alone?" Azhe asked.

The old lady asked, "Besides me, can you see anyone else?"

"Not really." Ah Zhe was a talkative person who didn't mind being ignored. "Grandma, why do you live here alone? Isn't it inconvenient to go up and down?"

The old lady ignored him, walked to the small mound and smoothed the soil on it.

"Grandma, where are your husband and...children?" Azhe asked tentatively.

The old lady paused for a moment, "Some are dead, some are crazy."

Seeing that she was not shy about talking about these things and did not look sad, Azhe breathed a sigh of relief.

【Grandma should accept the reality.】

[Ah, it's a bit hard to hold on. She's the only one left all alone in the family.]

【Hasn't she visited her son in all these years? 】

[Why are we watching that bastard? If it weren't for him, this family would be full of children and grandchildren.]

Qian Yang said: "Take off your headphones and let me talk to her."

"Okay."

Azhe took off his headphones, stood up and walked to the old lady, and said, "Grandma, actually, I came here today because of your son and daughter-in-law."

The old lady's face changed, "Get out! I don't have that kind of son!"

"Auntie Liang, the dead cannot be resurrected. No matter what, letting their souls linger in the human world is definitely not a good thing." Qian Yang said.

Ah Zhe agreed: "Yes, as long as we fulfill her wish, we can let her and..."

"I'm not talking about He Xiuwen." Qian Yang interrupted him.

Ah Zhe's body stiffened slightly, "What?"

【???】

Oh my god!

[Ahhh! I get it, isn't Liang Jun's father dead?!]

[Oh my god, could that little mound be the grave of Liang Jun's father?]

[Then the person sitting on the chair on the right is… It’s terrifying to think about it!]

【OMG!!!】

This poor old man!

She must have been worried that her husband's grave would be exposed to the wind and rain.

【She has been guarding her husband's grave?!】

When Aunt Liang heard Qianyang's voice, her body visibly stiffened.

"Grandma, she is a very powerful Taoist priest and wants to chat with you." Azhe put the phone in front of her.

"Hello, I'm Qianyang."

Aunt Liang asked, "What did you find?"

Qian Yang said: "Your husband, or to be more precise, your husband's ghost."

Azhe took a breath and said that this place is likely to attract ghosts!

Aunt Liang pursed her lips and said, "What do you want to do?"

Qian Yang said: "Since you know the existence of ghosts, I don't need to waste time talking to you."

"Did you know that the spirits of He Xiuwen and the child have remained in that house?"

Aunt Liang turned her head away and said, "I heard about it later."

"They have been unable to reincarnate and have been trapped in the house for more than ten years. I found you today for no other reason than to untie her knot."

Qianyang changed the subject, "However, it seems that her knot has nothing to do with the two elders. She didn't react in any way because of you."

Aunt Liang lowered her head and was silent for a long time. She sighed and said, "Xiu Wen, the Liang family has let her down."

Qian Yang said, "I want to learn from you about the specific circumstances of that time. Perhaps I can help her resolve her worries and allow her and her child to reach paradise sooner rather than later."

Aunt Liang nodded tiredly and sat down on the edge of the bed with Azhe's support.

"After that incident, I happened to run into people from the same village. They said Xiuwen would often knock on their door in the middle of the night with her child, constantly begging for help. Later, the noise got so bad that even a Taoist priest couldn't calm her down. Gradually, everyone in the village moved away."

Aunt Liang sighed, "I don't dare go back to see her, let alone have the face to go back to see her. It's our Liang family who harmed her, it's our Liang family who harmed her!"

Qian Yang said: "Then you must help me send her and the child into reincarnation."

Aunt Liang nodded and said, "Xiu Wen's parents died when she was eight years old. At that time, our two families were neighbors, so she was essentially raised in our family."

"She and Liang Jun have had a very good relationship since they were young, like siblings. Lao Liang and I also treat her as our own child and have never thought of letting her marry Liang Jun."

Talking about these past events, Aunt Liang's eyes were filled with tears. "Everyone else thought Xiuwen was our child bride, but we originally planned to find her a good family!"

"That beast Liang Jun got Xiuwen pregnant when she was 22 and insisted on marrying her no matter what. Old Liang and I only let them get married when we saw that Xiuwen didn't mind."

【Emmmm……】

[Isn't that disgusting? Making your own sister pregnant?]

[Without a name, status, or marriage, he made a girl pregnant for himself? ]

[Ah, I don't know what to say, but it's fine as long as Xiu Wen agrees.]

Aunt Liang wiped the tears from her eyes. "Everything was fine. After Xiuwen became pregnant, they got married. An adult from the same village took him to work in another place. He earned a lot of money, and he mailed it all back to build a house for his family."

"When Xiuwen was about to give birth, he rushed back from outside. Rumors started circulating in the village, saying that Xiuwen's child was not his... We were worried that it would affect their relationship, so we asked him several times in a roundabout way."

"Every time, every time, he says he knows what's going on. Is this what he knows? What evil has our Liang family done?"

"Even if that's not his child, Xiuwen is still his sister! How could he be so cruel, such a beast!"

Azhe patted her shoulder soothingly, "Grandma..."

【well! 】

Liang Jun is such a bastard. I never thought he would go to such extremes. What are his parents going to do in the future?

[Ahhh, I'm so pissed! If only you had just asked! Just asked!]

[You can also do a paternity test after the child is born! ]

[Devil! This man is the real devil! ]

[Oh my god! He is absolutely crazy. How could he do such a thing to Xiuwen?]

[It's so hateful, I hate him! ]

What did He Xiuwen do wrong?

Xiaoshui sighed, "Sister Xiuwen and the child are so pitiful."

Liu Yi said: "Yes, Liang Jun is too impulsive. No matter what, she is her sister who she lives with day and night."

Aunt Liang shook her head. "Liang Jun is not impulsive. He has never been impulsive. I really can't understand how he could bear to hit Xiuwen and hurt her and the baby in her belly!"

"He has always been very obedient and very good to Xiuwen. He would rather starve than not send money back home and ask us to make delicious food for Xiuwen... How could such an honest and filial child be so confused! How could he be so confused!"

For Aunt Liang, Liang Jun and He Xiumen were both her children, and their marriage was definitely a good thing. Who could have thought that they would end up like this?

Rather than resentment, she probably feels more regret and heartache.

[Honest people are most likely to accomplish great things quietly.]

[It's so scary! Who would have thought that a man who usually respects his parents and loves his wife would end up killing his wife and children?]

【Rumors can really kill people! 】

[Rumors can't be completely avoided. Ultimately, it's because he wasn't firm enough and didn't trust his wife.]

[Do you feel embarrassed? People like that value face above all else.]

【Let him go to hell! 】

Oh God! Please send him to the eighteen levels of hell and let him endure all the tortures.

[After her death, Ms. He Xiuwen would hold her child and ask for help every night. How desperate was she at that time?]

[Damn you man! You will die a miserable death!]

The comments were full of indignation, and Xiaoshui and Liu Yi also chimed in.

Qianyang, however, had a thoughtful expression.

This doesn't make sense. The order in which He Xiuwen became pregnant and Liang Jun went out to work is different from the rumors.

Qian Yang asked, "Auntie Liang, He Xiuwen got pregnant first, then they got married, and then he went out to work, is that right?"

Aunt Liang nodded and said, "Yes, he is not an ambitious person. After Xiuwen got pregnant and they got married, he wanted to go out and earn some money. Even if he had to take out a loan, he had to repair the house."

"What about the rumors in the village?" Qianyang asked.

"They all say Xiuwen is pregnant with someone else's child." Aunt Liang sighed. "How could Liang Jun, that beast, listen to what others say?"

"Do many people know that He Xiuwen is pregnant before marriage?" Qian Yang continued to ask.

Aunt Liang shook her head. "After all, this isn't something to be ashamed of. No one knows about it except our family of four."

"So, the rumor is that while he was away working, He Xiuwen cheated on him and got pregnant with someone else's child?"

"That's what they said, how could Liang Jun believe it?"

Qianyang shook his head, "No, that's not it."

Xiaoshui also reacted, "That's right! Sister Xiuwen was pregnant before Liang Jun left. How could she be pregnant with someone else's child while he was away working?"

"Liang Jun should be very clear about this!"

Qian Yang said, "If it was just because of these groundless rumors, Liang Jun wouldn't have killed He Xiuwen and the child."

After everyone thought about it carefully, it seemed to be true.

The real situation is different from the rumors, and the outside world's speculation does not necessarily mean it is correct.

[Fuck... Is there something else going on here?]

[If it wasn't during their working years, could it have been before they got married?]

【Ahhhh, what the hell is going on? 】

[We must find out why Liang Jun wanted to kill his wife and children again.]

Liu Yi said: "Even if this is not the reason why he killed his wife, there are only two of them in the family."

Qianyang did not deny this.

"But if we find the real reason, perhaps we can untie He Xiuwen's knot."

Thank you for your support, mua [star eyes]
