"What did he say before he died?" Zhou Jingmao asked hurriedly.
Xiao Cunyu had already released Kong Li's ghost. When Kong Li heard this, his soul was greatly shocked!
"He said..."
"I... am stained with filth, with nowhere to turn. I voluntarily die today to prove my innocence. I, Xu Bin, have lived a life worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of my mentor, and worthy of no one! And you two, you think you are loyal, but in reality you are unworthy of your brothers and your consciences! You will finally receive retribution... You have carried your sins your whole lives, tasting my pain and enduring my heartache..."
"He committed suicide by taking poison."
"We never thought he would die in front of us. We were deeply shocked... After informing the teachers, we asked the Xu family to claim his body. However, Xu Bin's parents were both deceased, and the family didn't want his remains buried in the ancestral tomb. In the end, his wife and children decided to bury him... at the place where he committed suicide..."
"After Xu Bin passed away, we were both unable to sleep or eat. Later, among Brother Kong's belongings, we found an article. It had been slightly revised, and its concepts were somewhat similar to Xu Bin's. I believe Brother Kong must have discussed this with Xu Bin before his death... If there had been a heated conflict, Brother Kong would never have written that article... Although we have no evidence, we realize that we may have... made a serious mistake."
After Mr. Guo finished speaking, his face was filled with tears of regret.
The two old people, leaning against each other, looked quite pitiful.
But when I think about these past events and see the miserable situation today, I feel that they really deserve it.
Without any evidence, he forced a person to death.
"Day and night, Xu Bin's last words filled our minds. They had become a demon, obsessing us over the imperial examinations. We remained here... Many years passed, and the academy suffered misfortunes. The number of people dwindled, and the academy became increasingly desolate. Before we knew it, we had both grown old..."
This is the only thing I have done in my entire life.
But I still dare not face the past again.
"I don't know why you mentioned Xu Bin. Maybe... maybe you are Xu Bin's descendants, here to seek revenge? We have nothing to defend ourselves... We later learned that Xu Bin was wrongly accused, but the matter is done. We are even more worried that we will end up like Xu Bin, so we dare not tell you the truth. We admit this crime... We admit it." Old Guo said again.
"He didn't kill her... He didn't kill her... Haha, no..." Mr. Huang was also very crazy.
It has been many years since anyone mentioned Kong Li and Xu Bin.
As time passed, they seemed to have forgotten the past in the silence day after day, until today, when Xiao Cunyu suddenly asked about it.
Xiao Cunyu didn't expect that Xu Bin was forced to death by someone else.
And Kong Li's ghost is not normal now.
A cold wind blew around.
"It's my fault! I'm dead, and I've hurt others!" Kong Li's eyes were filled with tears and blood. "I've implicated my best friend and Xu Bin. I'm the one who died, but I've ruined their lives! I, I... I deserve it! I deserve to die and never be reincarnated!"
"Be quiet." Xiao Cunyu felt overwhelmed facing the three grief-stricken men.
This is what happened, it's quite tragic.
But it has come to this, and it needs to be dealt with.
"Actually, you deserved it..." Zhou Jingmao said rudely, "You're facing someone as easy to bully as Xu Bin. If it were me... Humph! Dare to wrongly accuse me, I'll let my father beat you to death..."
"The words may be a little blunt, but the truth is there." Xiao Cunyu said cooperatively.
For the sake of brotherhood and friendship, but it is irrational and brainless, and the method is wrong.
If he really wanted to avenge his brother, he should have found out the truth first, instead of using other people's disgust with evil to force Xu Bin to death. Of course, if Xu Bin really killed someone, he deserved it, but he didn't find out the truth!
The fact is that they really didn’t do that!
