Chapter 160 The Last Wish of the Young Master of the Landlord Family
As soon as Chang'an and his companions landed at the ferry, the sound of wind chimes rang outside, and a boy of fifteen or sixteen and a little girl of three or four came in.
The boy has a tall and straight figure and is as gentle as jade. The girl is smart and cute, with two sweet dimples when she smiles.
"Hello, how can I trade my last wish?" The young man and his sister stood in the middle of the yard, smiling and asking gently.
The freshman made a gesture to invite him in, and he took his sister forward. After the freshman sat down, he and his sister sat down opposite the freshman.
A cup of tea, a glass of juice and a plate of snacks were placed in front of the brother and sister.
"I will use two-thirds of your merits in exchange. I will not continue my life in your name. Please understand!"
"Yes, I have two last wishes. One is to protect my Gu family's treasure and give it to my second uncle when he comes back. The other is to make all those in Xinghua Village who have received favors from my family but turned against my Gu family live a life worse than death." The young man expressed the hatred in his heart in the calmest voice.
"City Transportation"
Without even a rest after returning, they left the ferry again without stopping.
The original owner's brother and sister were killed by villagers who came to their house in the middle of the night looking for treasures. The Gu family of Xinghua Village used to be a big landlord. The entire Xinghua Village belonged to them, and the villagers were all farmhands and servants of the Gu family.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Gu family dismissed their servants and farmhands and donated most of their property. Because the Gu family knew how to adapt to the times, they lived better than the landlords who held on to their property and land, and were never affected.
Until the turmoil in 66, those people indiscriminately dragged the Gu family out of their home and criticized them on the grounds that they were landlords. Gu's grandparents and Gu's father and mother all died in the criticism.
Second Uncle Gu didn't come back from abroad, and when he wanted to come back, he couldn't, so he escaped.
There were only two children left at home. Maybe those people felt guilty or had other reasons, so they did not kill the two children. But today, the villagers who came secretly to look for treasure accidentally beat the two children to death.
The father and daughter looked at each other. They played things differently in this dimension. Their smiles were a little obscene. It was such an eye-catching smile to see them when they were freshmen and high school students.
Freshman, Senior High School: …
The Gu family was originally an old mansion, but now most of it has been destroyed, leaving only a front yard, which is also smashed to pieces. The original owner's brother and sister live in the only side room that is still intact.
They were now lying on the rubble in the backyard with their heads blasted open.
Chang'an and Gu Laoliu took the repair pills, and their wounds were healed immediately. They floated away with blood all over their heads and faces, and they really floated away.
Standing behind the four people, "Did you dig it up?" Chang'an's voice was ethereal and cold, which scared the four people.
Gu Laoliu kicked one of them into the pit and said, "How about I plant you here?"
The cold and strange voice frightened those people so much that they trembled in fear. They did not dare to look back and hugged each other in fear. For those who have done something wrong, the thing they fear most is ghosts.
"Bury them, bury them here to keep us company," Chang'an pushed the other three into the pit.
The five people finally screamed in fear, "Ah!!!"
"Sorry, sorry, we didn't mean to do that. We are just looking for money and don't want to hurt you." They tried to climb up using their hands and feet, but the more scared they were, the weaker their hands and feet became, and they became even more flustered and disobedient.
Gu Laoliu began to recount the kindnesses that the Gu family had shown to the farmhands and servants in Xinghua Village. "Li Ergou from the Li family, your father Li Dazhu once went into the mountains and did not return for three days. It was our Gu family who spent a lot of money to hire someone to go into the mountains and find him, and we also spent money to treat his illness for free."
"Zhang Daxiang from the Zhang family, when you were a child, you were seriously ill and the doctor said you wouldn't live more than a month. It was my father who took you to the city to find the best doctor to treat you, and that's why you're still alive today."
"Wu Fugui from the Wu family, your mother had a difficult labor when she gave birth to you. It was my Gu family who sent her to a big hospital to save your and your mother's lives. That's why you had the chance to be born alive."
"Xie Xiaoniu from the Xie family, your father fell into the reservoir while trying to save you because you went out to play in the water just because you were naughty. If my father hadn't jumped down to save him, the grass on your father's grave would be taller than him."
"When the Gu family laid off the long-term workers and servants, each of them received a considerable severance pay. Now you are still not satisfied and have caused my Gu family to be broken up. It seems that those properties should be taken back. Some people don't deserve to live."
The cold and strange voice came from the Gu family and spread far away. Most of the village heard it. The villagers who rushed over here after hearing the screams felt their scalps tingling and their hearts chilled.
The team leader and the village party secretary looked at each other and saw in each other's eyes that it was over.
Xinghua Village is very big, and even if you shout, the sound cannot be heard so far and so clearly. Most people know it but dare not say it out loud.
Those who heard Gu Laoliu talking at home were so scared that they wrapped themselves in quilts and dared not even let a hair show.
The four people who were still in Gu's family knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously, "Please let us go, we will never dare to do it again."
Changan sneered, "A dog will always eat shit. Only a few people in Xinghua Village deserve to live, and most of them deserve to die."
The faces of those who had just arrived at the door of Gu's family changed drastically. This was going to massacre the entire village. The villagers had indeed let down the Gu family, but wasn't this too cruel?
The captain quickly turned around and headed in another direction. He was going to look for the fortune teller who lived at the entrance of the village. Ever since the feudal superstition was broken, the fortune teller dared not show up, for fear that she would be caught and paraded through the streets one day.
However, what the captain did not expect was that the witch refused to take the job. "You killed someone, and you don't allow him to come back for revenge?"
"I heard someone in the city say that only the officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people are not allowed to light lamps. Is that referring to people like you? I can't help you in this matter, so please go back."
Shen Jinhua disdains to associate with people who receive favors from others but then eat their blood and flesh.
Seeing that she was unwilling to help, the captain wanted to threaten her, but when he thought of the methods used by the witch Shen, he could only swallow his dissatisfaction and left the Shen family dejectedly.
After he left, Shen Jinhua's son, Shen Tianyou, walked out from behind the door curtain and asked, "Mom, will the captain bear a grudge?"
"He doesn't dare. We won't get involved in the Gu family's affairs. I guess the two children were killed by them, so they are so resentful. They are all pitiful people."
Shen Jinhua sighed, "The hearts of the people in Xinghua Village have long been evil."
At the Gu family's side, no matter how hard the villagers knocked on the door, the shabby gate did not move at all. They wanted to go in from other places, but they were just going around in circles and could not find the entrance.
The miserable and painful howls of Li Ergou and the other three were heard from inside. Their parents knelt outside and kowtowed and begged for mercy, hoping that Gu Laoliu would let their sons go.
"Young master, please let Ergou go. It's our fault as his parents that we didn't teach him well. Let us apologize. Please let him go."
The family members of the four men were kneeling in a neat row at the gate of the Gu family. Their heads were bleeding, but they did not receive any response from Gu Laoliu and Chang'an.
