About one stick of incense passed.
Not long after, the old housekeeper came over with Lao Wang, who was responsible for watering the backyard.
Along the way, Lao Wang's eyes were sneaky and wandering, looking carefully at the gradually darkening night, as if he was worried about something.
"Are you scared?" Tao Ziming said slowly, looking at Lao Wang whose legs were shaking non-stop.
Even though he was blindfolded, under Tao Ziming's mind sword perception, everything in front of him appeared in his mind.
"Is there something wrong with you?" Tao Zi asked knowingly, as if he was one with the garden behind him.
Standing among the flowers, he is the flower, and the flower is him.
Li Wuyou and the city lord Lu Beihai on the side were amazed at what they saw, secretly sighing that such a young person could achieve such a high level.
"No, I'm not afraid at all. How could I have a ghost in my heart? I don't even know what you are talking about. Lord, believe me, I really didn't do anything." Lao Wang said tremblingly.
Lu Beihai frowned. He had already guessed something, but he was still not sure.
Standing aside quietly, he said calmly: "Don't worry, if you are really innocent, I believe these two young heroes will not wrongly accuse you.
But if you really did something unclean, then everything should be handled according to the rules. "
Lao Wang's heart skipped a beat, rules, what rules?
Is it murder to pay for life, or debt to pay for money?
When he thought of this, a trace of fear finally flashed in his eyes: "City Lord, please believe me, I am really innocent and I was wronged."
At this time, Tao Ziming chuckled: "You keep saying that you are innocent and have been wronged. Then I have to ask you, what did I wronged you for? Do you know something?"
Looking at the young man whose body was half covered by the long bamboo hat, Lao Wang felt helpless in his heart.
In front of this young man, it seemed that he had no secrets.
Because everything has been seen by the other party, not even a pair of underwear is left.
Lao Wang knelt on the ground with a plop: "No, no, no, I really don't know anything."
He turned around and looked at City Lord Lu Beihai with tearful eyes: "City Lord, I really don't know anything."
At this time, the city lord Lu Beihai looked at this guy with tears streaming down his face and felt irritated for no reason, because he thought of his daughter again.
According to the old housekeeper, Xiaocui who died at home was about the same age as his daughter.
If Xiao Cui, who unfortunately died underground, was really related to this old guy.
If such people remain in this world, they will only be a disaster.
When Lu Beihai thought of this, his aura suddenly rose.
He stretched out his hand and held a long knife in his hand.
But just when he was about to take action, Tao Ziming raised his hand casually and saw a flash of sword light.
City Lord Lu Beihai could feel that at that moment, Tao Ziming took action.
But he didn't see clearly how the other party took action.
I saw Tao Ziming bowing his hand towards the city lord Lu Bei: "City lord, please be patient, all the truth will come out soon.
If you still want to save your daughter, leave this matter to me. "
Although Tao Ziming is a disciple of the Qingshan Sect, at his age, he is still one of his juniors. To attack him like this, City Lord Lu Beihai naturally feels ashamed.
But just after he made this move, he realized that the gap between him and Tao Ziming was so huge.
If two people were really on the battlefield of life and death, Lu Beihai sighed, he would never be Tao Ziming's opponent.
Wanting to get here, the anger in my heart gradually dissipated.
Especially after hearing that this matter was related to his daughter, Lu Beihai slowly put away the long knife.
He turned his back, put his hands behind his back, looked at the bright moon in the night sky, and let out a long sigh.
Only two people at the scene knew what Lu Beihai was thinking about?
Apart from Tao Ziming, it was the old housekeeper who knew the city lord best.
But the most important thing now is to solve the condition of the city lord's daughter Lu Yaoyao as soon as possible.
Tao Ziming turned and looked at Lao Wang, who was in charge of watering the flowers: "That night a year ago, where were you? What were you doing? Tell me honestly."
Hearing the word "one year ago", a trace of surprise flashed in Lao Wang's eyes. He looked around. The dark back garden suddenly became gloomy for some reason, and it became colder and colder.
It was as if something had been spying on him secretly: "I, I don't know what you are talking about."
Tao Ziming shook his head and looked behind Lao Wang.
A girl wearing coarse linen clothes, with bleeding eyes, stared at him kneeling on the ground.
Lao Wang also noticed something strange about Tao Ziming, not just Lao Wang, but everyone at the scene.
The ghost Xiaocui appears.
Li Wuyou used the magic talisman to open his eyes again, and this time, he finally saw the other party.
"Ah!" he exclaimed.
Looking at Li Wuyou's abnormality.
Lao Wang only felt that his back was getting colder and colder.
"If he refuses to say it, then let you do it." Tao Ziming looked behind Lao Wang and said calmly.
The girl with blood and tears flowing from the corners of her eyes nodded and made a sad voice: "That night a year ago, for some reason, I suddenly felt unbearably hot.
I thought about ventilating the back garden, thinking that maybe doing so would reduce the heat. That was the night he took my life.
it's him! This is the murderer! It was he who took my life! I originally thought of getting a bucket of cold water from the well to drive away the heat.
Who knew that this old bastard suddenly hugged me from behind and said..."
When Xiaocui said this, she paused. It seemed that some words were really difficult for her to say, even if she had become a revenant.
"It doesn't matter, you can pick the key points." Tao Ziming comforted softly.
Xiaocui nodded: "He wanted to slander me at that time, but I refused to do it until I died, and he pushed me down the well later.
I can't swim, so I struggled a little at first. Who knew he actually found a long stick and pressed me into the well, where I drowned alive.
I hate it so much, why is this happening? I really don't want to die yet. "
In Xiao Cui's eyes, thin red threads emerged from the position of the pupils, expanding toward the outside of the pupils.
The breath became more and more fierce in an instant.
Xiao Cui looked at Lao Wang: "Why do you do this to me?"
This time, Lao Wang obviously heard what Xiao Cui said.
He twisted his neck in panic, looked around, and begged for mercy: "Don't, don't kill me, I was wrong..."
