Chapter 27 Small punishment, blaming someone for the crime

Seeing that woman put on her pants, Jiang Ning made a quick decision, flashed out of the space, used her hand as a blade, and chopped her neck hard. The woman didn't even have time to scream before she fainted on the ground.

Jiang Ning picked up the bamboo strips and filled the hole she dug out, then picked up the "sanitary napkin" that fell on the ground with a look of disgust. The piece of cloth with menstrual blood exuded a bad odor, and Jiang Ning endured the disgust and stuffed it into the woman's clothes with the bamboo strips.

How to deal with this woman?

Jiang Ning squinted and thought for a while, and I don't know what he thought of, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Jiang Ning squatted down, stretched out his hand to grab the woman's arm, and brought her into the space in the next moment. Jiang Ning knew the strength of her attack. The woman would not wake up until at least tomorrow morning, so she was not worried at all that she would discover the secret of her space.

It was always daytime in the space. Jiang Ning could see her face clearly this time. She was a woman she had never seen before. She looked to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.

How could she be so decent-looking but so dirty?

Jiang Ning withdrew her gaze in disgust and used the space to hurry. The cold wind was howling in the middle of the night. Jiang Ning passed through the dark woods and saw a bright pond. Here

we are.

This is it.

The place where she killed He Wen.

Jiang Ning brought the woman out of the space and placed her at the place where He Wen died.

Since she knows how to cast a spell, she should believe in ghosts and gods, right?

Jiang Ning thought of the possible situation tomorrow, and the smile on her lips deepened. She turned around and left with satisfaction.

Back in the house, Liu Mingan was sleeping soundly, occupying a bed in a crooked position, unaware of what was happening outside. Jiang Ning pushed him aside and got on the bed herself. After a while, Liu Mingan unconsciously moved over to stick to her, holding Jiang Ning's arm as before.

It was late at night, and Jiang Ning was tired after being out for a long time. Not long after getting on the bed, she fell asleep.

"Chirp! Chirp!"

The crisp sound of birds rang in her ears. Li Xiangyun woke up slowly and found herself lying on the ground. She was confused for a moment.

What happened? She clearly remembered that she had sneaked to Liu Mingan's house and was going to bury a riding cloth soaked in semen behind his house to bring disaster to Liu Mingan. Why did she sleep here?

After sleeping on the ground for a night, Li Xiangyun's clothes were soaked by the dew. She sat up from the ground, pressing her arm that was numb and unconscious from being pressed, and carefully recalled what happened last night.

She arrived at Liu Mingan's house, walked to the back of the house, dug a hole with a bamboo stick, took off her pants and took off the riding cloth. What happened next? What happened next? Why are you here? Why can't you remember anything at all?

Li Xiangyun rubbed her arm. The area behind her neck hurt a lot. She just thought it was because the ground was too hard and she had a stiff neck. The forest in front of her was still a little dim, and birds were jumping up and down and calling. Li Xiangyun stood up in a mist. There was something bright in the residual light. She turned her head and found it was a pond. Pond

?

Her heart suddenly lifted high, and Li Xiangyun's pupils dilated involuntarily. She swallowed hard, and looked around in doubt, and finally determined that this was the pond!

The pond she had been to the day before yesterday! The pond where someone had died!

Li Xiangyun was even more horrified to find that the riding cloth with semen was actually in her arms, and the place where she slept was where He Wen's body was lying!

The hairs on her body stood up at this moment. The morning wind blew through the woods and hit Li Xiangyun. She only felt a gust of cold wind and bone-chilling cold. It seemed that there were countless invisible eyes staring at her.

"Ah! There's a ghost! Help! There's a ghost, there's a ghost!" The woman's miserable cry startled the birds in the forest and they flapped their wings and fled.

Because someone had died near the pond, the villagers subconsciously took a detour, so Li Xiangyun stumbled and ran for nearly a mile before she finally saw someone.

Zhuzi, who had gotten up early to go out to herd cattle, looked at the somewhat crazy Li Xiangyun and asked kindly, "Sister Xiangyun, so early in the morning..."

Before she could finish her words, Li Xiangyun saw a living person and rushed forward like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw. She grabbed Zhuzi's arm tightly, her face full of panic, and kept saying "there is a ghost".

"Where is the ghost? Sister Xiangyun, don't scare me." Zhuzi was also a teenager under fifteen, and Li Xiangyun's weird look made him feel a little uneasy.

"It was that ghost He Wen! It was He Wen. He took me to the pond. He Wen, it was He Wen! I slept peacefully by the pond for a whole night, and you see, my clothes are all wet. It was all He Wen's fault! He wants to harm me, he wants to harm me..."

Li Xiangyun spoke incoherently, and then stretched out her sleeves to show Zhuzi to prove that she was not lying.

Zhuzi's face changed when he heard the word "He Wen". It was he who called the officials to perform an autopsy the day before yesterday. After listening to Li Xiangyun's words, although she spoke incoherently, it did not look like a joke. Her clothes and hair were indeed wet, as if she had spent the night outdoors.

Zhuzi was a child after all, and he panicked all of a sudden, standing there in a daze with a pale face.

Seeing that Zhuzi believed her, Li Xiangyun let go of her hand and continued to shout "There is a ghost, there is a ghost" as she walked home. Whenever she met someone on the way, she would grab them and tell them about how she was taken to sleep by a pond by a ghost.

Within half a day, the story spread throughout the village. Some people believed it, some did not, but people were panicked. After that, everyone avoided the pond for a long time.

Liu Mingan heard about this when he met his third uncle's wife when he went out to fetch water two days later.

"Ming'an." The third uncle's wife saw Liu Mingan first, looked around, and saw that there was no one around, so she walked up to him and greeted him in a low voice.

Liu Mingan was wondering why the third uncle's wife was so cautious, when he heard the old woman whispered: "Have you heard about Li Xiangyun?"

Li Xiangyun? Liu Mingan shook his head.

"I guessed you just didn't know." The Third Uncle laughed, with a smug look in her eyes.

Liu Ming'an also laughed and said, "I haven't been out for the past two days. Third Uncle, what happened?"

The Third Uncle didn't keep it a secret, and lowered her voice even lower: "The night you quarreled with Li Xiangyun, she encountered a ghost! I don't know what happened in the middle of the night, and she ran to the place where He Wen died and slept there. Some people say that this is the dead ghost He Wen who wants to use her body to come back to life."

This sounded a bit absurd, and Liu Ming'an didn't know what to say for a moment. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is it true?"

"Really!" The third aunt's tone was firm, as if she had seen it with her own eyes: "Many people saw her running back home from the pond that morning, as if she had lost her soul. Most likely, she had previously scolded He Wen for being a short-lived ghost, and it turned out that she was right, so He Wen came to find her. You know Li Xiangyun cares most about her reputation. If she hadn't been scared silly, how could she scream and shout like a mad woman in front of so many people? And I tell you, no one has seen her go out since she returned home that morning."

The third aunt's wife would not exaggerate, and Liu Mingan now believed it a little.

"Ming'an, I'm saying all this nonsense to remind you. Although you haven't done anything wrong, He Wen was a evildoer when he was alive, and he's probably a ghost that wants to harm people after his death. Your home is the closest to the pond, so you'd better be careful and don't go to the woods next to it to collect firewood. Be careful."

The third aunt-in-law advised earnestly, and Liu Ming'an nodded repeatedly: "Thank you for your reminder, third aunt-in-law. I'll remember it."

The third aunt-in-law added: "To be honest, it's a good thing for you that something happened to Li Xiangyun. You offended her that day, and she would definitely take revenge on you. Now she is scared and hides at home and dares not go out. Naturally, she can't harm you."

Liu Ming'an just smiled and said nothing.
