Chapter 124 Phoenix Man Husband vs. Tragic Original Wife (7)
It’s finally here.
Granny Wen pricked up her ears and her hand touched the boning knife under her pillow. It was her sharp weapon to deal with people with ulterior motives.
Granny Qi used her hand as bait to break the dog’s neck in order to prevent the dog’s barking from waking everyone up.
She found the broken place and, with the help of her previous observations, carefully pulled the bamboo strips. Soon, a hole that could allow people to enter and exit was “made”.
She crawled in with her hands and feet, and the blood on her hands dyed the bamboo strips red.
There was no light in the room, and it was even more terrifyingly dark.
She gently groped the wall, carefully avoiding the place in the middle of the room where people might sleep, intending to give her daughter-in-law a fatal blow as soon as she touched the bed.
One step, two steps, three steps, she felt her heart beating very fast.
In the past fifty years, she had killed chickens, ducks, and geese many times, and she was never afraid of killing pigs. The white knife went in and the red knife came out, and the pig would not move.
But she had never thought of killing this living person. Now she was forced into a corner.
"It's possible." She took a deep breath, and her hand accidentally touched a square corner, which was the bed.
"Mom, are you here to see me late at night?" Shi Yi's leisurely voice echoed in the rainy night, catching her off guard.
Granny Wen took advantage of her surprise to put down the knife for self-defense, quickly struck a match, and lit the candle.
This was a trap set by her and Shi Yi, originally intended to lure Qi Jiacheng into the trap, but he actually asked his own mother to come.
At the same time, outside the door, Aunt Wu kept knocking on the wooden door, "Qi's scumbag, I saw you go in, do you want to kill people to silence them and make a scapegoat for your useless son!"
The sudden light and the sudden sound also woke up the sleeping Wu Lian. He looked at the extra Aunt Qi in the room, and his mind suddenly became active.
"At this point, I won't resist." Granny Qi hung her head, looking very depressed.
Wu Lian stood guard at the bedside of Granny Wen and Shi Yi, with a look of disappointment on his face, "I really didn't realize that you are such a person, Auntie."
He originally thought that the villagers just loved to take advantage of others, but there would never be the kind of people who deliberately wanted to hurt others. But the scene he saw now made him unable to explain it at all.
"Tie me up." Granny Qi clenched her fists and put her hands on her chest, "I did something wrong."
Outside the door, Aunt Wu continued to bang the door and yelled; "Is there anything wrong with the people inside? Squeak a sound."
Soon, all the people living in the tent came out and stood behind her, wanting to see what happened.
"Go find a rope to tie it up." Granny Wen held a boning knife in one hand and directed Wu Lian to get a rope with the other hand.
Taking advantage of this gap, Granny Wu rushed up, snatched Granny Wen's knife, and then stabbed Shi Yi.
Wu Lian saw this scene with his own eyes, and his heartbeat paused for a moment. The voice in his heart told him: Even if he was quick-eyed and quick-handed, he couldn't stop it.
Ke Shi used all his strength to counterattack her, and the tip of the knife stabbed towards Granny Qi's arm.
"Ah..." This really hurt to the bone, and Granny Qi couldn't help but scream.
The door was also knocked open at this moment, and everyone looked at Granny Qi, who was covered in blood, with hesitant eyes.
Except for Aunt Wu who had been paying close attention to Granny Qi.
"You bitch, you've been caught by us. You still want to kill people to silence them and frame my son, no way." She was complacent, looking back at Qi Jiacheng who was pretending to be surprised, and said meaningfully: "Now that people are awake, the real murderer can't get away."
"It has nothing to do with my son, it's all me." Granny Qi looked up at Aunt Wu, her gray eyes were frighteningly big, "I know you always think your son is more promising than my son, but my son is a college graduate after all, and he won't do anything illegal to kill people."
Aunt Wu was frightened by her lifeless eyes, and she shut up for a while and didn't fight back.
"It has nothing to do with you." Shi Yi covered his stomach and sat up slowly. "You have been covering up for him for more than 20 years. This time you want to use death to clear his guilt?"
"Zhao Shiyi, I know you still hate me. But you can't wrongly accuse me in front of everyone." Qi Jiacheng yelled, "The last time I hit you was because you said good things about Wu Lian in front of me. I am a man after all, how can I bear this kind of anger."
"I said it has nothing to do with my son." Grandma Qi also joined in, "Your heart is not with my son, and we can't stop you, but you throw dirty water on my son, and I, as a mother, don't want it."
"Even now, you two are still accusing me of wronging you." Shi Yi was so angry that he laughed, and the wound was shaken to make it more painful. "Qi Jiacheng, do you want me to tell you how you killed Chen Jiao before you are willing to plead guilty!"
"We didn't even find Chen Jiao's body." Qi Jiacheng gritted his teeth, with a look of resentment on his face, "Zhao Shiyi, I don't know how much you hate me, and you want to kill me to stop."
"Are you afraid that Chen Jiao's body will come looking for you?" A strange voice came from outside the door, and everyone looked over subconsciously.
The female corpse, a pale and swollen female corpse, opened her eyes wide, tilted her head, and stared in the direction of Qi Jiacheng.
"Ah... alive... how did you survive..." Qi Jiacheng was frightened and ran around, "I didn't mean to hurt you."
Seeing Qi Jiacheng like this, there was no doubt that he was the murderer. Aunt Wu, who had been silent, finally let out a sigh of relief.
Grandma Qi burst into tears, "What a sin, such a beast came out of our family."
"Si Wa, you put Chen Jiao's body at the door, come in." Shi Yi's voice had a smile, "Qi Jiacheng, didn't you want a body? I'll give it to you now."
"You just woke up, how did they find the body?" Wu Lian asked the doubts in his heart.
Shi Yi said mysteriously: "Chen Jiao told me in my dream that she died unjustly and that she would come up to help me and testify against Qi Jiacheng, the unfaithful man."
Superstition was prevalent in the small mountain village, and when people heard about the dead person's dream, they did not doubt it and they all hid towards the wall in the middle.
One came for revenge, the other came to kill, both were a bit scary.
Granny Wen stood by Shi Yi, sneering at everyone's reaction. Shi Yi looked at her, and there was real warmth in his eyes.
She was awake to begin with, and while everyone was setting up tents to sleep and Wu Lian was helping, she planned all this with Granny Wen. Granny Wen took advantage of everyone's inattention to pass notes to the children of the Zhao family, asking them to go to the lower reaches of the river and wait to fish out Chen Jiao's body.
Because of the heavy rain, the lotus fields must be flooded, and the swollen body will definitely float up.
