Chapter 160 Retribution
"Alright! Stop arguing, move the gold back and we'll figure out how to divide it!"
The person who spoke was the village chief's son. After hearing what he said, everyone fell silent.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Ah! There's blood! There's blood!"
Everyone's attention was drawn to the place he pointed.
The blood from the cracks in the coffin had seeped into the soil, dyeing the ground beneath their feet red, and a fishy smell spread.
Everyone was frightened and climbed up quickly.
"What's going on? Why is blood still seeping out of this coffin?"
Everyone was trembling with fear, but no one ran away because no one was willing to give up so much gold.
At this time, the eldest son spoke:
"Pry it open! I want to see what's inside this coffin!"
"Brother, this... this couldn't be that old guy deliberately tricking us!"
"What are you afraid of? That old guy is dead. There are so many of us. Why should we be afraid of a ghost like him?"
The eldest son spoke while tightly clutching the black dog blood and peach branch in his pocket.
Everyone looked at the coffin still oozing blood and gritted their teeth, saying, "Open it! It's come to this, we have to carry the coffin back no matter what!"
As they spoke, each of them took a shovel and dug at the gap. With the combined efforts of several strong men, the coffin lid was easily pried open.
There was a loud bang, and the coffin lid fell to the side, and an even stronger smell of corpse came.
Everyone suppressed their nausea and fear and looked inside. They saw a red, rotten corpse soaked in blood in the coffin, and the entire coffin was filled with bright red liquid.
Some gold, silver and jade artifacts were scattered around the rotten corpse, and even being soaked in bright red liquid did not affect its golden luster at all.
"Gold! Lots of gold!"
The greedy people no longer have any fear in their eyes. All they have in their eyes is gold.
A group of people rushed over, reached out to pull the thing out of the blood, and wrapped it in clothes.
Soon, everything in the coffin was snatched away, and the rotten corpse was thrown out of the coffin as everyone was trying to salvage it.
Everyone's eyes turned red, and after they had taken out all the things inside, they began to think about the golden coffin.
This thing is more valuable than everything else in there!
"Brother, how do we divide this coffin?"
The eldest son looked at his six brothers and sisters and the villagers. Although he was reluctant, he knew that it was impossible for him to transport the coffin back by himself. He could only say:
"Take it back, sell it, and split the money equally!"
Everyone's eyes flashed with joy, except for the village chief's son who said, "You guys divide it up, these are all I need!"
The village chief was an upright man, so they kept all these things secret from him.
The village chief's son knew very well that if his father knew what they had done, he would definitely call the police and have them arrested, so he didn't dare to take more.
If one person is missing from the money, the others will be so happy that they won’t be able to stop it!
Soon, the village chief's son went down the mountain alone.
When he returned home, the village chief was already asleep. He quietly hid the things he had brought under his bed and then fell asleep.
In the distant mountains, Chu Runrun and the others had already left the village with Tang Tang's family.
"Ruanruan, are you really not going to save them?" Tang Tang asked worriedly.
Chu Ruanruan shook her head: "I can save them temporarily but I can't save them forever. The debt has been owed and they should pay it back!"
"But there are many people in the village who didn't participate in killing my grandfather. I'm afraid they also..."
"Don't worry! I have given the talismans to the innocent people and will help them escape this disaster!" Chu Ruanruan said.
Tang Tang finally put aside his worries and smiled at Chu Ruanruan, "I knew you wouldn't ignore them!"
Near midnight, the quiet village was awakened by a scream.
Chu Runrun, who was sleeping in the RV, suddenly opened her eyes, got out of the car, looked at the village at the foot of the mountain where gloomy energy was surging, and sighed softly.
The village was soon filled with panicked screams, and lights in every household were lit.
I saw a man holding a machete, slashing at his wife again and again with a dull expression, starting with her limbs. If one blow didn't cut it, he would strike again, and again...
He didn't even notice until all his limbs were chopped off and blood splattered on his face.
The woman was dead, killed by the pain.
The man was in a trance for a moment, and when he saw the person in front of him clearly, he was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly.
The blood on his hands and face told him that he had killed someone! He had killed his own wife!
But before he could come out of his fear, a knife pierced into his abdomen. When he turned around, he saw that it was his father.
"Dad... Dad, why?"
The gray-haired old man repeated his mechanical movements like a puppet, pulling the knife out of the man's abdomen and stabbing it in again, pulling it out and stabbing it in again...
If this is the case here, Xin Chengzhi's sons and daughters are even more miserable.
The eldest brother picked up the stick and hit his left leg inch by inch, starting from the toes, with each blow being merciless.
If it weren't for the hideous expression of pain on his face, no one would have thought he was hitting himself.
The same thing happened to the other sons, their screams practically intertwined.
Their wives also knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, not stopping until blood flowed.
The three daughters heated up the oil and poured it on themselves. Their hands were already burnt black in the oil pan, and they soon stuck their heads in.
The way they treated Xin Chengzhi was retaliated against tenfold. Screams were heard everywhere, while inside the house, several children who knew nothing about the world were sleeping soundly.
When Xin Dashan saw his parents, uncle and aunt going so crazy, the first thing he thought of was not to save them, but to take the money and run away.
He stumbled back into the room and stuffed a bag with the gold and silver he had taken from the coffin.
Because of the panic, the gold was scattered on the ground as soon as it was put in.
Xin Dashan hurried to pick it up, but there was still a piece of gold that had fallen somewhere and he didn't know where it had fallen. He looked everywhere for it.
At this moment, a hand handed gold to him.
Xin Dashan quickly took it and said happily, "Thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
A voice as cold as ice came from behind, and Xin Dashan suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He remembered that voice, it was clearly his grandfather's voice!
Xin Dashan turned his head stiffly, and what he saw was Xin Chengzhi's face, which was as thin as a skeleton.
"ah!!!"
Xin Dashan was so frightened that he tried to run away, but after running for a long time he was still standing in the same place.
Looking down, he saw that his feet were hanging in the air and his whole body was lifted up.
Xin Chengzhi came in front of him, staring at him with a pair of cold eyes, just like the moment before his death.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, I'm sorry! I didn't hurt you. It was my parents who did it. Go find them!" Xin Dashan shouted incoherently.
