"You're so excited. Such a villain should be cut into pieces and corpses!" Chi Qingwan said viciously with a look of relief.

Li Xiuran's eyes flashed slightly, and when asked now, the facts were about to come out.

The reason why Mr. Zhao was exterminated was probably because he forcibly robbed the young lady and colluded with the county government, beating the old couple who reported to the officials to death.

The young lady was jealous of Zhao Yuanwai's wife because she was pregnant, so she secretly poisoned her and murdered her.

The whole family died of unjust humiliation because of Zhao Yuanwai. The young lady died with her eyes open, and she became a demon. She directly turned into a ghost and came to Zhao Yuanwai to seek revenge, so this case of extermination occurred.

And that evil ghost is the little lady!

This just explains why the evil ghost's hatred for Liu is higher than that for Mr. Zhao.

Yang Wenxin also guessed the truth, and his already cold face became more and more gloomy: "Who is that little lady's name?"

"I don't know this."

"I heard that it seems to be called... Xiu'e?"

"I also heard that it seems to be called this name."

Xiu'e... Li Xiuran said to himself and asked again: "How many people know where Xiu'e's parents are buried now?"

"Where can you still be buried? Mass burial."

"The whole family was dead, not even a corpse collector. I heard that they were dead, so the yamen directly sent someone to throw them into the mass grave."

"It's really pitiful. If you die unjustly, you can't even be buried in peace after death, alas..."

Chi Qingwan's face became gloomy again, and she said angrily: "This dog thief Zhao Yuanwai died like this. It's so cheap."

"Who said no?"

"But once he dies, there will be one less disaster in the county."

Everyone around them looked gloating.

"Do you guys know where the mass grave is?" Li Xiuran asked as if nothing had happened.

"Outside the city."

"Walking north from the city gate, there is a small hill. You can see it at a glance, and it is there."

Several people replied casually.

"Thank you for your advice." Li Xiuran said with a smile.

While speaking, the waiter also brought wine and food.

Li Xiuran looked at Chi Qingwan, who was still angry, and whispered: "Okay, don't be angry, you'll get angry anymore, you'll get angry anymore, you'll have some serious things to do after the meal.

Depending on the situation, the evil ghost is probably Xiu'e. Now that the whereabouts are unknown, you have to find him first if you want to take her down.

After eating, I will go outside the city to see if my parents are buried there. She should go to worship and maybe she can find some clues."

Finally, he followed again: "What are you talking about?"

Yang Wenxin glanced at him and nodded expressionlessly.

...

Outside the city.

After dinner, Li Xiuran and Yang Wenxin and Chi Qingwan left the city together and headed straight to the mass grave.

Chi Qingwan looked reluctant: "Then Mr. Zhao has done all his bad things and deserves it if he dies. If the evil ghost is Xiu'e, she is also avenging herself and her parents. What's wrong? I told me that we can go back directly, why are we still arresting her?"

Yang Wenxin rushed on the road silently without saying a word.

"It's natural that you're right to take revenge, but it's just a killing family, and it's a torture. Even the maids and servants were not let go. The methods were so cruel, which shows that her mentality was already a little distorted. If she was left alone, how can she ensure that she won't continue to commit crimes in the future?

If she commits a crime again, what should I do if someone else is killed? Aren’t they wronged?" Li Xiuran said quietly.

To be fair, he also sympathized with Xiu'e's experience. The whole family died of unjustly humiliation. This kind of deep hatred should naturally be avenged, but there must be a measure.

What if you resent the world and retaliate against society in the future?

and……

"Even if we can go back without arresting her, will the Seri ignore her and stop sending others to arrest her?"

Chi Qingwan was speechless, but her face still felt a sense of discomfort.

The atmosphere suddenly became dull.

The three of them rode their horses and walked north for about two miles. Sure enough, they saw a hill and then turned decisively towards the hill.

It is summer now, with weeds growing on the hills.

The corpses that were unrestrained in the county town would be thrown here. From time to time, a corpse would be seen in the grass, which would be exposed to the wilderness. I don’t know if they were buried or if they were buried, they were dug out by some ferocious beast.

There were messy scenes everywhere, only one place was cleaned up, all the weeds were removed, and a new grave was located in it, with a tombstone standing in front of the grave, and there were some snacks and fruits in front of the monument.

Li Xiuran looked around and confirmed that there were no other newly raised tombs and no new bodies thrown over. He turned to look at the new tomb that was incompatible with the surrounding areas, and smacked his lips:

"It seems that this should be the grave of Xiu'e's parents. It was cleaned so cleanly. It should be the evil ghost who killed Zhao Yuanwai. It was indeed her."

"Snacks and fruits have not been shared by wild dogs and tits. She should have just arrived!"

Yang Wenxin looked around, closed his eyes and felt it carefully, and then opened his eyes in disappointment: "But now you have left, and you can't sense any ghosts nearby."

Chi Qingwan was very happy, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be hidden: "That's not our fault. It's really impossible to find it, but we didn't catch her."

You are too happy... Li Xiuran glanced at her and said silently: "Since you already know the identity of the evil ghost, it is not difficult to capture her.

First, stay here. Although she is leaving now, her parents are buried here. She will definitely come back in the future. Then we can take her down directly.

However, the time is uncertain. She may not be able to come back soon, but it may be a long time later.

So I prefer the second method.”

Yang Wenxin frowned and said, "What method?"

"Go to the county government and wait for her to fall into the trap." Li Xiuran said lightly.

Not only Zhao Yuanwai, who killed her family, was also his accomplice, Sun Pei, the magistrate of Gaoling County!

From the tragic situation of Zhao Yuanwai's family being tortured and killed, it can be seen that Xiu'e hated the culprit for destroying her family. Now that Zhao Yuanwai's family is dead, the only enemy is Sun Pei left, so she will definitely seek revenge on Sun Pei.

He was in the county yard before, and he was surprised that the guards in the yamen were so strict. Now he knew that Sun Pei also knew that the evil ghost was Xiu'e, and was worried that he would become the next Zhao Yuanwai, so he improved his guard level.

He even reported the matter to the Demon Suppressing Department, just to borrow their hands to get rid of Xiu'e's threat for him.

Yang Wenxin's eyes lit up, and he figured out the key point, nodded and said, "Yes, Xiu'e's family died tragically, and Sun Pei is also an accomplice. Now that an enemy is dead, she will definitely go to Sun Pei to take revenge next.

Moreover, it is most likely that she killed Sun Pei before coming to worship her parents next time, so she can use this to comfort her parents' spirit in heaven.

Just do what you said, go to the county government now."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Li Xiuran immediately followed.

Chi Qingwan stared at Li Xiuran from behind, looking unhappy, and finally muttered hatefully: "Stinky man!"

Um?

Li Xiuran glanced at Chi Qingwan who was looking at him with a deep grudge, looking innocent. Why did he scold him? He was wrong in his business?

I want to remind her: Don’t forget your identity!
