Chapter 738: Tragedy 1
Mobile reading
Shi Twenty raised his head, glanced at her, and said softly: "Back to Niangniang, that night, something happened in Shifu." β
Nanyan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" β
Shi Twenty said in a deep voice: "Up and down the Shi Mansion, more than a dozen people, Master Shi Ye, as well as his parents, his relatives, and the servants in the family - all died. β
"What!?"
Nanyan's eyes widened.
At this time, Zhu Feng on the side stretched out his hand and gently pressed her cold hand.
Nanyan trembled slightly, turned his head to look at him, and Zhu Feng said, "Don't be afraid, and don't affect the child." β
ββ¦β¦β
By the way, I also said before that the child in the womb is aware of the outside world.
When I heard such a story and was so scared, I don't know if it would make the child scared too.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly stretched out her other hand and gently held her stomach.
When Zhu Feng heard this story, from beginning to end, except for the slight flickering of his eyes, he didn't have any superfluous expression, and only said lightly: "Where is Shi Lian?" β
Shi Twenty: "It's also dead." β
ββ¦β¦β
"All of them died overnight."
ββ¦β¦β
"The government came to check and found that they all died of arsenic, and there was no trace of outsiders committing crimes, plus Shi Lian had just given birth to a dead baby, so it was suspected that she was crazy, put arsenic into the meal, and poisoned herself together."
ββ¦β¦β
"This case can only be regarded as an unsolved case, but since then, our village has become an ominous place."
Nanyan listened and frowned.
Indeed, a large family like this suddenly died up and down, and the people around were afraid to look at it again.
Shi Twenty: "That house, since that night, has been haunted, and gradually, no one dares to approach. The surrounding villages felt that our Juqi Village was ominous, and they all moved away one after another. β
ββ¦β¦β
"But we people, we have nowhere to go."
ββ¦β¦β
"Therefore, our ancestors carved a huge stone tablet and buried it under that house as a method for town houses."
ββ¦β¦β
"Gradually, that stele has become the soul of our village."
ββ¦β¦β
"Our ancestors always told us that we couldn't leave this place, because once we lost our popularity, those evil spirits would haunt us."
ββ¦β¦β
"So, we can't go, and we can't go!"
At this, he began to cry.
The rest of the village also cried.
Nanyan was beside him, listening to the cries of these people, and his heart was indescribably depressed.
It turned out that the people in this village had been carrying the admonition left by their ancestors to keep them from leaving, so despite their hard work and despised, they all stuck to this place and did not retreat.
At that moment, she heard a soft sobbing in her ear.
When I turned my head, it was Xiaoshi, crying, wiping the tears on his face with his sleeve, and a small face immediately became like a cat.
She sighed, took a handkerchief from her sleeve, and gently wiped his tears from his eyes.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Xiao Shi had just said to herβ
"Daddy also said that no matter where we move, we will be driven away."
"So, we're going to stay here."
β¦β¦
She thought for a while and said to Zhu Feng: "Your Majesty, the concubine has a sentence that she wants to ask this Shi Village Chief. β
Zhu Feng turned his head and glanced at her.
Then nodded: "You ask." β
Nanyan looked down at this Shi Twenty-one and said, "Village Chief Shi, just now I heard your son Xiao Shi say that you once told everyone that no matter where you move, you will be driven away. Is it? β
Shi Twenty: "Yes, the grass people said such a thing?" β
"Why do you say such a thing?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Let's not talk about whether there really are any evil spirits here. This time, the emperor expanded Beiping City, you yourself can see clearly, the city wall has been repaired here, the entire city has more than doubled, and when the time comes, tens of millions of people will have to be moved into this city, how can it not accommodate your small village. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Why do you say that wherever you go, you will be driven away."
Shi Twenty Yi smiled bitterly, and then said: "Niangniang, something like that happened in our village has already spread, and other people dislike our Shi clan, saying that our clan will produce such a shameless woman, and will make such a tragedy, because our virtue is not good." β
ββ¦β¦β
"To be honest, over the years, it's not like no one hasn't wanted to change careers and don't want to leave."
ββ¦β¦β
"However, we can't change our surname, we can't change our clan. When we entered the city, as soon as people knew that we were from Juluo Village and the Shi clan, they still looked down on us. β
ββ¦β¦β
"We can only survive by doing this business. Because, every day there are people in the city, even if they don't want to, no matter how much they spit on us, they still want to come to us to engrave a monument. β
ββ¦β¦β
"It's just that when they use us, they use it, but behind their backs, they still hate us."
ββ¦β¦β
"Now, the emperor wants to expand Beiping City and let our village move into the city, but what about moving into the city? We are all disliked. But now that the walls have been repaired, where will we go if we are to be driven out in the future? β
As he spoke, he began to cry to himself.
And the young and strong men around him, who were originally all iron-clad and refused to give in to the officials of the imperial court, also shed tears when they heard him say this.
The ladies in the crowd were even more crying.
Nan Yan's heart was sour.
She kind of understands why the people in this village are making trouble with the government, not only because of the warnings left by their ancestors, so that they can only stay here for generations, but also because of the grievances of being disliked and despised for so many years.
People always have to have an outlet.
Looking at this village, it is indeed like a deserted village, so far away from the city, no matter what you want to eat and use, you have to talk about it many times longer than the ordinary people in the city to get it.
For so many years, they have come over like this.
But this time, let them leave their hometowns, so that this group of people who have always lived in the shadows, finally couldn't help but explode.
And seeing the people in the village crying like this, Xiaoshi cried even more.
Nanyan endured his sadness and said softly: "Good boy, don't cry." β
As she spoke, she looked at Zhu Feng who was sitting beside her, but saw that his cold face still didn't have much expression, not even a little warmth.
It's just that the eyes seem very deep, as if they are thinking about something.
