Chapter 322 Do you want to run away after doing something bad?
Neither Mo Jiuye nor his fifth brother had expected that Mo Chuhan would bring a group of doctors back to Xiling Village, and their current search area was limited to Yuncheng.
It was a blessing in disguise that Mo Chuhan brought a group of doctors back to Xiling Village.
As soon as he entered the village, he saw a dozen members of the Cui family running towards him in panic.
Seeing that they were still holding bags in their hands, it was obvious that they wanted to escape with their crimes.
Mo Chuhan stepped forward without saying a word and blocked the way of more than a dozen people.
After living in Xiling Village for a long time, it is inevitable that he will meet the Cui family. The dozen or so people in front of him are not strangers to Mo Chuhan.
"You want to run away after doing something bad?" he sneered.
After several members of the Cui family looked at each other, they were all at a loss.
When the Mo family first came to Xiling Village, it was Mo Chuhan who first jumped into the yard of the village headman's house. His agile movements were witnessed by several people.
No one wants to be the first to speak out when facing Mo Chuhan. If they say something wrong, they will definitely suffer physical pain.
The most important thing at the moment is that they have more people and the other side has only one person. Even if Mo Chuhan wants to catch them, it is impossible to catch everyone.
As for the doctors brought back by Mo Chuhan, they all fell behind because they could not keep up with his pace and had not yet arrived at Xiling Village.
With this in mind, the Cui family members began to think of ways to escape.
Someone took advantage of the fact that Mo Chuhan wasn't looking at him and ran towards the village entrance.
Mo Chuhan didn't chase after him at all. He quickly bent down, picked up a small stone on the ground, and threw it at the fleeing person.
The man seemed to be tripped by something in front of him, and fell forward face down with a cry of "ouch".
Seeing this, the other members of the Cui family thought their chance had come and scattered and ran towards the village entrance.
Mo Chuhan picked up a few small stones again and threw them out, hitting everyone's ankles accurately.
No one in the Cui family was spared and they all fell to the ground.
The one who suffered the most was the only elder of the Cui family. He was a bit old and not as fast as the young people. Mo Chuhan was closer to him, so the stone he threw would hit him with more force.
As a result, he fell with greater force, and all of his front teeth, which were already few in number, fell out.
Mo Chuhan ignored the Cui family's screams, walked forward, untied their belts neatly, and tied them up one by one.
There was quite a commotion at the entrance of the village, and the remaining members of the Cui family who had not escaped were too guilty to dare to come out to check.
The Zhou and Zhao families were different. Ever since the Cui family was brought under control, there hadn't been any major commotion in the village for a long time. Now that there was something exciting to watch, the idle people ran out to watch.
It just so happened that the patriarchs of the Zhou and Zhao families were both there.
Mo Chuhan said to the two of them, "Could you please help keep an eye on these people? I'll go to the foot of the mountain and take a look. I'll be back soon."
Now Mo Chuhan is the chief constable of the yamen. The people arrested by the officials are asked to watch over them, so the Zhao and Zhou families will naturally not be vague.
What's more, they were reluctant to give up the opportunity to show off in front of the Cui family.
"Okay, Captain Mo, go ahead and get busy. We'll take care of these people."
After Mo Chuhan thanked him, he ran quickly towards the foot of the mountain.
He wanted to see how badly the workers were poisoned.
As a result, when he arrived at his homestead, what he saw was completely different from what he had imagined.
The workers were doing their jobs in an orderly manner. Where were the signs of poisoning?
That’s not right. Didn’t my ninth brother say that the Cui family poisoned their soup?
Why are these people okay?
Just when Mo Chuhan was confused, Hu Cong, who was standing on a high place to give orders, noticed his arrival.
Hu Cong hurried over and said, "Eighth Master, aren't you going to work today?"
Mo Chuhan was bewildered.
"Brother Hu, my ninth brother said that the Cui family came here to poison people. Is this true?"
Hu Cong had no idea what Mo Chuhan had misunderstood. He nodded and said calmly, "It is true. The person who poisoned the food has been sent to the government office by Master Jiu and his men."
Mo Chuhan was still confused.
"But these people are obviously fine. How can they look like they've been poisoned?"
Only then did Hu Cong realize that Mo Chuhan had misunderstood something.
"Fortunately, the Ninth Young Master arrived in time and caught the person who poisoned the person on the spot, thus preventing a major disaster."
It’s a big disaster. He Zhiran couldn’t help it and came over to check it out.
She concluded on the spot that the soup was filled with arsenic.
Everyone knows arsenic, it is a very toxic poison.
Hu Cong knew that Mo Chuhan was an irritable person, and was afraid that he would hurt others in a fit of anger and cause unnecessary trouble, so he didn't say it explicitly.
Anyway, Mo Jiuye had already brought some poisonous soup to the yamen. Although arsenic was restricted from sale in Dashun, ordinary doctors could tell the difference.
When the time comes, the government will ask a doctor to identify the body and convict the Cui family.
After hearing Hu Cong's words, Mo Chuhan woke up as if from a dream.
Just now, my ninth brother told him to invite a doctor over, and he meant to go to the yamen, not here.
Fortunately, he misunderstood and did not give those sinister people from the Cui family a chance to escape.
Knowing that he had made a mistake, Mo Chuhan planned to rush back to the county government office immediately.
As he reached the village entrance, the doctor he had called and the officials sent by Meng Huaining also arrived.
The dozen or so members of the Cui family who had just been captured showed signs of absconding, and it was obvious that they had participated in the poisoning incident. Meng Huaining didn't need to give any more orders. Mo Chuhan directly ordered two officers to stay and guard the Cui family, and the rest of the people took the escaped members of the Cui family back to the yamen.
After Mo Jiuye and his fifth brother left the county government office, they went their separate ways to look for Mo Chuhan.
He inquired about a medical clinic in the city, and the people there said that Captain Mo had indeed come to ask for a doctor, saying that he was going to Xiling Village to save someone.
Mo Jiuye understood that his careless myna must have misunderstood something, which was why he brought those doctors back to the village.
So he quickened his pace and rushed to Xiling Village, hoping to catch the person back.
On the way, he happened to meet Mo Chuhan and others.
The two brothers escorted the Cui family members back to the county government office.
At this time, it was almost evening and the government office was not open.
But the person who needs to do the job is Mo Jia, so Meng Huaining will spare no effort even if it is late at night, let alone in the evening.
There was no doubt about the case to begin with. After calling a doctor for identification, it was confirmed that the poison in the soup was arsenic.
As for the source of the arsenic, Meng Huaining quickly found out.
This thing was given to them by County Magistrate Cui, so that the Cui family could use it to help them do some shady things.
After County Magistrate Cui fell from power, this thing became useless and was left in the Cui family in Xiling Village.
Now, they want to use this highly toxic poison to kill those workers, which shows how vicious their minds are.
Fortunately, Mo Jiuye discovered this matter in time and prevented it from causing a disaster.
Even so, Meng Huaining would not let the Cui family go so easily.
In Yuncheng, where he governs, such vicious people will never be allowed to exist.
