Chapter 76 The Man Who Set Fire
But after listening carefully, I realized that the sound of the gong was in the direction of the foot of the mountain, so I had to quickly walk towards the foot of the mountain.
Zhou Lizheng was almost waiting for the others to arrive and said loudly: "I have called you here this time for no other reason than that something extremely bad has happened in our village."
"Last night, someone actually dared to come to the Nangong family's main house and set fire to them, intending to burn them to death. If Ah Shan hadn't been alert and discovered the person before he took action, I don't know what would happen to Ah Shan's family now."
"Everyone looked in the direction of my finger, and all the grass there was burned away by that man."
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw that it looked like it had been burned by fire.
Wei Zhongshan suddenly became angry and shouted: "Who is so bold that he actually wants to set fire to kill people?"
Yu also said: "Ashan is the savior of the whole village. That man actually wants to kill his savior. It is really unjust."
Cao Zhenya said: "That's right, I didn't expect that there would be such a vicious person in our village. We can never let that person go like this. He must pay the due price, otherwise he may become unhappy again.
Go burn others."
"Yes, we must find that person and send him to see the official!"
Nangong Anshan took a step forward and said: "Everyone is right, this kind of person must pay the price he deserves. When I chased that person last night, I saw the figure of the person and knew that it was a woman. According to me
It is speculated that he should be around fourteen or fifteen years old, and his height is only one and a half meters."
Zhou Lizhengdao: "Now all the women who are fourteen or fifteen years old and less than one and a half meters tall stand at the front for me."
Some people feel that they are innocent and stand forward openly.
Some people seemed to be afraid that Nangong Anshan might mistakenly recognize someone, so they walked forward slowly.
After the people who should stand up came forward, Nangong Anshan roughly counted them and found that there were dozens of people.
She looked at each person carefully several times and suddenly said: "Thank you, everyone turned around. I saw mostly that person's back last night."
All the women turned around obediently.
Nangong Anshan looked at it carefully, then suddenly walked up to a woman and said, "You must be the one who came to my house and set fire to it last night."
Everyone's eyes instantly fell on that woman.
The woman turned her head and saw everyone staring at her, and said nervously: "No...it's not me, how could it be me? I was scared by a ghost the night before and I didn't even dare to go out at night, how could it be me?"
Everyone in my family can testify for me."
Nangong Anshan identified Li Ergou's sister Li Fangfang.
Zhou Lizheng said: "Ashan, are you sure it's her?"
"Sure, if I wrong her, I'm willing to be struck by lightning!"
Seeing Nangong Anshan swearing a poisonous oath, some people also looked at Li Fangfang with suspicion.
Chen Cuicui immediately quit and protected Li Fangfang behind her, saying: "Nangong Anshan, everyone knows the grudges between you and our family. You must be taking revenge on us because of what my family did to you before. The night is so dark
, how could you possibly know who set the fire? I think you just want to find a scapegoat."
Wu Dayong also said: "That's right. Everyone in the village knows that Li Fangfang was scared by a ghost the night before. How dare she go out at night? I think you just took the opportunity to take revenge on her."
Nangong Anshan said: "The night is dark, but that doesn't mean I'm blind. Was Li Fangfang scared by a ghost the night before? She can fool you, but she can't fool me."
Zhou Lizheng asked: "Ashan, do you mean that you know the truth of what happened the night before?"
"That's right." Nangong Anshan said: "What happened the night before was simply something Li Fangfang made up out of thin air. From beginning to end, there were no ghosts at all. Everything was directed and acted by her."
Chen Cuicui frowned and said, "You're talking nonsense. How could my daughter be so boring? What's her reason for doing this?"
Nangong Anshan said: "Just to set fire to my house. As long as she said she saw a ghost, and she saw it in the middle of the night, the whole village would be affected. Then as soon as it gets dark at night, no one would dare to go out.
At that time, even if she sets fire alone, no one can see her, so she can escape unscathed."
Chen Cuicui said: "This is all your guess. My daughter is timid and it is impossible to set a fire."
Nangong Anshan said: "I am the evidence. I saw her setting fire with my own eyes."
"What you said doesn't count."
"Doesn't it count? I have other evidence."
Nangong Anshan glanced at her kitchen and added: "My kitchen is right in front of the tent. When I saw that person last night, I took the kitchen oil and chased him."
"I knew I couldn't catch up with her, so I poured the oil on that person. The oil is a yellow liquid. Grandpa Li Zheng can send someone to find the dress at Li's house. I guess it's still there now."
You can find it.”
Li Fangfang's face suddenly turned pale when she heard this.
Zhou Lizheng nodded and looked at his wife Zhao: "Take a few people to search the Li family's tent."
Mrs. Zhao nodded and hurried to the Li family's tent with several women, including Cao Zhenya and Mrs. Yu.
When the Li family saw this, they wanted to follow him.
Zhou Lizheng gave his eldest son Zhou Zhenyang a look, and he led his men to stop everyone in the Li family.
Chen Cuicui said anxiously: "Zhou Lizheng, how can you take people to my house without authorization? If my family's money is lost, I want you to compensate!"
"Compensate?" Zhou Lizheng said: "I don't believe you are so stupid that you would put your money in a tent that has no sense of security at all. All your money is probably on you."
Chen Cuicui choked and had nothing to say.
After a while, Mrs. Zhao came back with someone and said, "I haven't found the clothes Ashan mentioned yet."
Li Fangfang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Cuicui became proud again, "Humph, my daughter was wronged. Stop framed good people here."
Zhou Li was looking at Nangong Anshan, "Ashan, do you have any other evidence?"
Nangong Anshan looked at Li Fangfang carefully and suddenly smiled: "Of course, the evidence is in Li Fangfang's body."
Everyone looked at Li Fangfang at the same time.
Nangong Anshan added: "According to my guess, she probably wore a white undershirt last night just in case."
"When people come out like this, as soon as they see her, they will think of the ghosts she talks about. No one will dare to look at her face carefully, and she can do bad things smoothly."
"If they can't find that piece of clothing in the tent, given their family's conditions, they will definitely not be willing to throw that piece of clothing away."
"Therefore, that piece of clothing must be on her body now. As long as she takes off her coat, the truth will be revealed."
