Chapter 196 Find out the truth and comfort the dead soul

As expected, Hu Miao shook his head, "No, it's Hu Mazi."

Several people took a breath of cool air in an instant. Isn't this Hu Mazi the murderer lying in the coffin?

Ming Zhuo's expression did not change, not surprised at all, "So Hu Shengnan was able to successfully finish high school and take the college entrance examination."

Hu Miao nodded and continued.

If Hu Shengnan's family is an alternative in the village, Hu Mazi is another alternative. He has been in prison.

It is said that he stabbed someone outside, and later returned to the village to fish for a living after being released from prison. He did not marry or have children, and just lived alone.

He had a long scar on his face, which was said to be caused by someone hacking him during a fight. One of his eyes was broken, which looked very scary. All the children in the village were afraid of him.

Only Hu Shengnan was brave enough to talk to him. People in the village said that it was because of this that Hu Mazi had bad intentions.

He had sponsored Hu Shengnan to study, and he had no good intentions.

Some people also said that Hu Mazi's money came from unknown sources and he must have done something shady.

But this was only a conclusion made later, but Hu Miao remembered that at the beginning, all the rumors were directed at Hu Shengnan.

The villagers had nothing bad to say, and they scolded Hu Shengnan for being a prostitute, otherwise why would others sponsor you to study out of kindness?

She must have seduced Hu Mazi. She is so despicable. How can a girl like her go to school?

Every time Hu Miao was reprimanded, he would hear the example of Hu Shengnan. He said that Uncle Lame was too ashamed to see anyone because he gave birth to a shameless and arrogant child who ruined the atmosphere of Xianyuan Village.

At that time, it was still very difficult to get into college. Everyone was sure that Hu Shengnan would not be able to get into college.

When Hu Shengnan's college admission notice came down, the villagers were almost mad. Their boys didn't get in, so why did she get in?

The village chief was very happy. He made an exception and opened a temple for Hu Shengnan to offer sacrifices to the ancestors. This was the first female college student in the village!

But the villagers were indignant. The person who was originally trampled under their feet was about to soar into the sky. How could they be willing?

In just ten days, Hu Shengnan's family experienced a series of bizarre incidents, including theft, broken fishing nets, and smashed windows.

Later, early one morning, the villagers found Hu Shengnan lying naked on Hu Mazi's bed, with heavy marks on her body and dying.

Another group of people found Hu Mazi by the lake and beat him up with a shoulder pole.

Those people said maliciously, "Brother Mazi, you didn't sleep with her before, but you can't force her."

This incident was a scandal in the village, and the village chief suggested not to call the police and handle it internally.

The result of the handling was that Hu Mazi paid Hu Quezi's family 300,000 yuan in compensation.

300,000 yuan was a huge sum of money 24 years ago. No one knew how Hu Mazi could have so much money, which seemed to confirm the rumors that he was not clean.

Hu Mazi's legs were broken, and his house was occupied by his cousin.

They built a toilet-sized ear room next to the house, threw Hu Mazi in, and left him to fend for himself.

One day after that, Hu Miao passed by the house and saw a pair of eyes staring at her in the dark room. Hu Mazi waved hoarsely for her to pass.

Hu Miao walked in despite her fear and smelled a very unpleasant odor in the house.

Hu Mazi asked her how Hu Shengnan was doing now, and whether she was okay.

She burst into tears at that moment, and said viciously, you hurt her so badly, how dare you ask?

Hu Mazi was silent for a moment, then fumbled from his arms and took out a cloth bag, wrapped layer by layer, with 10,000 yuan in it.

He said to Hu Miao, "My child, you are in the third year of junior high school now. This is the money I saved for your high school tuition."

He also said, "You must study first. Only by studying can a girl have a future.

" Hu Miao believed that he was being hypocritical, and took the money without hesitation and hid it without telling anyone.

Later, she went to see Hu Shengnan again.

Hu Shengnan was seriously injured and had to lie in bed for a long time before she was able to get up and move around.

She became less talkative and taciturn, but her eyes were firm. She said, "You don't have to comfort me. Nothing can knock me down.

" When Hu Miao left, Hu Shengnan gave her all her high school textbooks and notes, and said, "I'll be waiting for you in the city. Don't give up.

" The person who said not to give up was found jumping into the lake a few days later.

The faith that supported her in her youth was completely shattered, so one morning, Hu Miao left Xianyuan Village with 10,000 yuan in cash. She

endured all kinds of hardships and suffered all kinds of sufferings, and gradually polished herself into the invincible person she is today.

"Sister Shengnan is much better than me. I can stand firm in the city, how could she live a bad life? I don't believe that Sister Shengnan will be depressed." Hu Miao wiped her tears.

Mingzhuo took out a tissue and handed it to her, "You are actually pleading for Hu Mazi, right?"

Hu Miao lowered her head, tears kept flowing out. In fact, she had already guessed it in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it.

"After Sister Shengnan jumped into the lake, Uncle Mazi slit his wrists and committed suicide. I was the first to discover it. The scene was full of blood. When the witch came in, she was so scared that her legs went limp. She said it was a curse."

Later, the bloodstains were cleaned up, and no one mentioned the curse again.

In the end, the village concluded that Hu Mazi committed suicide out of fear of crime.

But Hu Miao was full of doubts. She didn't think this was the truth, so when she heard that Hu Mazi had turned into a zombie, she decided to tell Mingzhuo about what happened that year.

She thought that since this little girl could even deal with the witch, she might be able to find out the truth and comfort the dead.

This story is very heavy, and when several people left, they were not in a good mood.

Mingzhuo distributed the snacks he brought to everyone, so that everyone could eat something to ease their mood, and left a portion for Hu Miao.

Several people ate while walking.

He Wangyao: "If Hu Mazi was really wrongly accused, should we let him go?"

Li Wenhe: "But he is a fierce monster, it is impossible for him to retain his sanity, how can we let him go?"

Pei Di felt that his head was about to be twisted into a knot, and he couldn't make sense of anything, but the only thing he was sure of was -

"If that fierce guy couldn't be kept alive, the boss would have killed him with a sword. Why would Shen have set up a ritual?"

Ming Zhuo, biting a pancake, suddenly stopped and glanced in the direction of Chengxian Lake.

A thick fog rose on the lake and gradually spread towards the village. People could no longer be seen a few meters away.

"It looks like they don't want us to leave." He Wangyao said, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could he be a crow?

Ming Zhuo: "Why do I feel like someone is trying desperately to get me out? This is too much. Am I so unwelcome?"

Several people came to the village chief's house, where the banquet had already started and it was bustling.

Ming Zhuo scanned the place and stared at Shen Boyuan, "Where is Qianqian?"

Chu Yuqi: "Teacher Ruan, can you let Senior Brother Shen take a breath? As an adult, is there anything wrong with her?"

So annoying, deliberately catching on to other people's mistakes and talking non-stop!

Shen Boyuan frowned: "Her legs are not convenient, so she is eating in the backyard. Don't worry, she is fine."

Ming Zhuo wanted to say something else, but the village chief and his men walked in happily with two stacks of cash.
