"Why did you two kill someone?"
Chen Xuan was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the two to admit it so readily.
In fact, he said that these two people were murderers simply because he disliked them and was talking nonsense.
I didn't expect that these two people were really...
What he didn't expect was that the two of them admitted it directly.
In fact, he underestimated the importance of the powerful monks in the hearts of ordinary people.
The counterpart of bhikkhu is the powerful martial saint.
Think about it, in the Three Thousand Continents, how would ordinary people react when they see a Martial Saint?
When Chen Xuan first came to the Three Thousand Continents, in Chicheng, the Martial Saint was like the ceiling, the local emperor within a thousand miles.
Therefore, when the two murderers learned that Chen Xuan was a monk, they were lucky enough not to be scared to death.
What's more, Chen Xuan also used the trick of going to hell to threaten them!
In the eyes of Buddhist believers, nothing is more terrifying than going to hell!
"Master Bhikkhu is asking you a question. Why did you kill someone? Answer me now!"
The old monk scolded.
These two people actually dared to play tricks on him, which made him very angry.
"Because the Zhu family is too bullying!"
The man wearing the turban suddenly became angry, and even clenched his fists, his eyes full of grief and indignation!
"Too much bullying?"
"How did they bully you? Do you want to kill their entire family?"
Chen Xuan was a little surprised.
At this time, he noticed that, except for the old monk and the other two, the expressions of everyone else present looked a little unusual.
It seems like he knows something?
Since they have already admitted to being the murderer, there is no need for these two to hide anymore and they just tell the truth directly.
It turned out that they were from the Zhu family, and their two daughters were planning to marry these two men.
For a daughter, the bride price is eighteen taels of gold.
These eighteen taels of gold are nothing to a rich man.
But for a poor family in a small mountain village like theirs, it is simply a sky-high price.
Many families, even with five people, spend less than one or two ounces of gold in a year.
But these two brothers worked very hard to get married.
After saving for several years, they finally saved enough gold. The two of them each gave 18 taels of gold to the Zhu family, and the Zhu family accepted it.
Logically speaking, if things continue to develop normally, this will be a good thing for everyone.
As a result, after the Zhu family received the money, they were unwilling to marry their daughter and raised the betrothal gift to thirty taels of gold.
Thirty taels of gold per person, sixty taels for two people, which means they have to pay another twelve taels of gold per person.
The two were dumbfounded. They tightened their belts and finally saved up eighteen taels. Before they received the money, he deliberately did not ask for thirty taels. After receiving the money, he refused to marry his daughter for a month. Now he wants thirty taels again. Isn't this playing a joke?
If this is the case, then the two brothers would be quite insane if they killed someone.
The real reason was that the two of them scraped together and borrowed money from everywhere, and finally gathered together thirty taels each, which they sent to the Zhu family.
Now I can finally marry my daughter here.
As a result, the Zhu family took the money and said they would take a month to prepare and marry their daughter off in a grand ceremony a month later.
However, a month later, the Zhu family changed their minds and increased the reward for one daughter from 30 taels of gold to 50 taels of gold!
Isn't this going to cost the lives of both brothers?
The two of them immediately discussed it and felt that this was not a good idea.
As a result, the Zhu family insisted that they would pay fifty taels for a daughter, and if they didn't have one, they could get out.
Later, someone couldn't stand it anymore and told the two brothers the truth.
In fact, the two daughters of the Zhu family had already married secretly.
So even if the two brothers gave money, the Zhu family would not give their daughter to them.
The two brothers felt like the sky had fallen when they learned the truth, so they went to the Zhu family to question them. Finally, the Zhu family admitted that their daughter was indeed married, and it was all their fault for being useless and useless. They had saved up the money for the betrothal gift for so long, but their daughter was old and had no time to wait.
The two brothers were furious and asked the Zhu family to return the money, including the thirty taels of gold for each person.
As a result, the Zhu family said that the money had been spent and there was no money left, and they drove the two away.
After all, there are more than a dozen people in the Zhu family, and the two brothers are no match at all.
One of them had his arm broken and it took him a month to recover.
This incident made the two brothers angrier and angrier, and neither of them could swallow this bitter pill!
In the end, the two men discussed and implemented a revenge plan, poisoning all the members of the Zhu family to death.
After they were poisoned to death, the bodies were placed together. After they were sure that they were dead, they invited the villagers and the abbot of the temple to come over.
Because the two brothers usually looked like honest and kind people, and everyone in the village knew that the two brothers liked the daughter of the Zhu family, so they felt that no one would suspect them.
What they didn't expect was that Chen Xuan and Ye Xiaotian would show up halfway.
When these two men appeared at the Zhu family, the two brothers were stunned, but they soon came up with a plan, which was to pin the blame of the murder on Chen Xuan and the other two.
This is simply God’s help!
After all, if Chen Xuan and the other two were not there, there would still be a certain chance that the abbot would find out that they were the murderers!
And now with these two people, they are the scapegoats!
Who could have imagined that these two people were actually so powerful and powerful that they were Bhikkhu (Martial Saint) masters.
In the eyes of ordinary people like them, Bodhisattvas and Arhats are like gods and should not be provoked.
Although bhikkhu is a little inferior, he is also a demigod.
So, after being frightened by Chen Xuan, the two of them confessed everything obediently.
After hearing the reason, everyone present couldn't help but sigh.
Even Chen Xuan couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
It is really difficult for ordinary people to find a wife. The worst thing is that after working hard for several years, they still fail to find a wife and their money is even defrauded. This is simply leaving no way for people to survive.
Originally, Chen Xuan thought that the two brothers were too ruthless. They killed the whole family. Isn't this insane?
But now, as the truth came to light, everyone began to sympathize with the two brothers again, thinking that they had been fooled a little too badly.
"Although your experiences are sympathetic, murder is murder. You two, follow me to the temple and confess your sins to the Buddha. After you confess, I will personally send you to reincarnation. In your next life, be reborn as a good person."
The old monk sighed softly.
Although the two brothers were indeed badly played by the Zhu family, more than a dozen people in the Zhu family were killed, so the two of them still have to receive the punishment they deserve!
"I am willing to follow the abbot's arrangements."
The two were already desperate and nodded obediently.
