He was originally the youngest son of the county magistrate. He was pampered and enjoyed the best life. After he finishes next year, he will be able to obtain the title of scholar and compete with his boss for the position of county magistrate.

It was originally a good plan, but it was all ruined by the families who fled.

Ha, a beggar who escaped from famine actually dared to take action against his maternal grandfather's family, and even implicated him, causing him to look like this!

"It's all caused by those who fled from famine... I want them to die... I want their girls to experience all the suffering... cough cough cough..." Zou Yuzhen hated the Gu family to death, even if he was about to die, even if he was coughing up blood foam , but also scolded the Gu family.

Zou Hai felt that Zou Yuzhen was sick, so he snatched the bag of banknotes from Zou Yuzhen's hand and said, "You deserve to die."

She even helped him kill the Gu girl. If he died, wouldn't all his banknotes be his?

Zou Yuzhen knew that this bag of silver notes could not buy Zou Hai, so he used the last bit of strength to say: "...I have buried two jars of gold elsewhere...As long as you swear that you will help me destroy the Gu family girl...I will Tell you where the gold is hidden..."

Two pots of gold!

Zou Hai's eyes lit up. No one in the world would object to having too much money, let alone gold.

With these silver notes and the two pots of gold, he could live a life of calling slaves and maids with his wife and children after leaving Tianfu County.

Yes, Zou Hai has a family.

He helped Zou Xiancheng do some shady things, and would travel around Jianghuai, Jiangnan, and Zhongzhou. With Zou Xiancheng's help, he had household registration in these three places, and he was registered in these three places. They are all married and have children.

For those two pots of gold, Zou Hai made a vicious oath: "Zou Hai swears that he will sell the girls who have grown up parents to be prostitutes for the third master, and let them die in humiliation."

"Oh...is your name Zou Hai?" Zou Yuzhen had already guessed that Zou Hai had other identities, so he said: "I swear on you...if you violate the oath...your whole family will not die...you will suffer." Die in pain..."

When Zou Yuzhen said this, his expression was very ferocious. His mouth was covered with blood foam, and the blood and tears flowing from his eyes made him as terrifying as a demon from hell. Even Zou Hai was frightened.

Zou Hai had no choice but to make a poisonous oath in order to know where the gold was buried: "I personally swear that after I escape, I will sell the Gu family girl to be a prostitute for the third master. If I violate this oath, my family will not be allowed to do anything." A good death, and I myself will die in agony!”

After swearing the oath, Zou Hai said angrily: "Tell me where the gold is buried."

Zou Yuzhen told him a place in a low voice. Zou Hai's eyes widened when he heard it. He knew that place.

When Zou Hai was happy, Zou Yuzhen suddenly got angry, grabbed Zou Hai's arm with both hands, glared at Zou Hai with blood-red eyes and said: "If you dare to fool me... I will turn into a evil ghost... and come to pester you every night. ...I will let you be swallowed up by the evil ghost and die!"

As he spoke, he deliberately sprayed Zou Hai with a mouthful of blood foam before he collapsed from exhaustion.

Zou Hai was frightened by the last mouthful of blood Zou Yuzhen spat out. He hurriedly took a few steps back, sweating all over his body. After a while, he dared to go forward and check Zou Yuzhen's breathing. After finding that he was completely dead, he felt relieved.

But after a while, Zou Hai became afraid again, fearing that Zou Yuzhen would really turn into a ghost and haunt him, so he acted immediately, taking advantage of the darkness of night, to move the bodies of Zou Yuzhen and Fan Dabiao through the exit, to the entrance of the old tree outside the house, and made two People killing each other.

In the end, a small half bag of banknotes was left behind, making people mistakenly think that they died fighting for the banknotes.

After Zou Hai finished all this, he put on his clothes, messed up his hair, pretended to be a beggar, and rushed into the night.

After drinking tea, Zhu's men patrolled nearby and discovered the bodies of Zou Yuzhen and Fan Dabiao. They immediately knocked on the gong and shouted: "Come here, we found Zou Yuzhen!"

Clang, clang, clang!

There was a blast of gongs and shouts, and soon all the nearby government officials were summoned.

When Bantou Zhu saw Zou Yuzhen's body, he was overjoyed and laughed out loud: "Haha, this kid is considered dead."

The place of death was so suitable that he got a big credit for catching him in vain.

"All the government officials formed a human wall to surround this place. If Team Leader Jiang and Team Leader Yang's people come, they are not allowed to come in. I'm going to ask the county magistrate." Captain Zhu went straight with a smile on his face and led a government servant. The county government told Magistrate Xu the good news that Zou Yuzhen was dead.

Magistrate Xu stood up in shock: "Dead? Really dead?!"

Bantou Zhu said with a smile: "He died outside Zou's mansion. The two corpses were stuck in the hole of the big locust tree outside the mansion. It looked like there was internal strife."

Magistrate Xu looked at Bantou Zhu's smiling face and felt a little unhappy. Zou Yuzhen had committed so many serious crimes and died like this, which was actually a bit disadvantageous for him. It would be best if he could be captured alive and taken to the capital, so that his faults could be minimized.

"Take me to have a look." Magistrate Xu took Master Yu, the county government officials, several government officials and nursing staff, and followed Zhu Bantou straight to the big locust tree outside Zou Mansion.

Under the big locust tree, Lieutenant Jiang had already arrived with the county soldiers. Two of Bantou Zhu's government servants were still sitting on the ground holding their stomachs. Apparently they had stopped Lieutenant Jiang and were beaten.

Bantou Zhu broke into a cold sweat and cursed his subordinates as idiots. He asked them to stop Bantou Yang and Bantou Jiang, but he didn't let them stop Captain Jiang. Can they stop Lieutenant Jiang County? It really killed him!

"Your Majesty, I would like to inform you that I found Zou Yuzhen's body two quarters of an hour ago. From the looks of it, they died due to internal strife." Zhu Ban took a few steps forward and said to Jiang County Lieutenant.

It was a pity that Jiang County Lieutenant ignored him at all. He stood up and saluted County Magistrate Xu and said, "The other corpse should be that of Fan Dabiao in Liuye Lane. The neighbors in Liuye Lane said that he was tall and burly and had a swollen ear." Scar, right."

Magistrate Xu nodded and said to the man: "Go and see those two corpses."

"Yes." The two gangsters carried the boxes to check the bodies of Zou Yuzhen and Fan Dabiao, and finally came to the conclusion: "The two of them probably died due to internal strife."

Then he described the injuries on the two men's bodies and the postures in which they were fighting for the money bag before they died, as evidence that the two died fighting each other.

Magistrate Xu took the money bag, opened it, and found that there were a total of thirteen hundred-tael silver notes in it: "One thousand, three hundred taels, that's a lot."

It makes sense that he would do something for these banknotes.

Jiang County Wei Jing has a lot of things going on, and some of them don't believe that the two died fighting each other, because Fan Dabiao was too strong. With his ability, it was easy to kill Zou Yuzhen and take away the banknotes, but how did he get killed? Was Zou Yuzhen killed?

However, even though he asked Zuo Zuo to examine the bodies again, and he checked several times under the big locust tree and in the secret room connected to the tree hole, he found no evidence that the two men were killed by someone, so he had to give up.

Zou Yuzhen had committed such a big crime, and now he was dead. County Magistrate Xu did not dare to delay, and he could not afford to delay. Seeing that County Lieutenant Jiang could not find any clues about his murder, he wrote an official document the next day, and then After the evidence was sorted out, a fast horse was sent to the prefect's Yamen before evening.
