Chapter 373 The Truth Is Revealed
Captain Yuan looked at the records and reconstructed the scene of that night in detail.
"That night, the sky was overcast, it turned to drizzle, the weather was a bit cold, and the ground was slippery and muddy!"
"The man in the family of three... This man's surname is Jin, let's call him Lao Jin!"

"Lao Jin did drink that night, but Lao Jin was still relatively restrained and did not get drunk. It was just because the weather was a bit cold, so he went to the tavern to drink something to warm up his body."
"After drinking and returning home, Lao Jin opened the door and saw a dark shadow standing stealthily in his yard, peeking into the room through the small hole in the paper window."
"And this person is Zhang Er!"
"Zhang Er is a street urchin and a gangster in the village. He usually does nothing but wanders around every day, and has no knowledge or skills."
"And Lao Jin's The wife was also pretty, so Zhang Er sneaked into Lao Jin's house while Lao Jin was at the tavern. "
"Originally, Zhang Er arranged for his friend Zhang San to watch Lao Jin in the tavern, and once Lao Jin left, he would take a shortcut to pass on the message to him."
"But Zhang Er didn't expect Zhang San to get drunk in the tavern that night, and he didn't expect Lao Jin to go home so early!"
"As a result, he was caught by Lao Jin in the yard!"
"After being discovered by Lao Jin, Zhang Er didn't panic too much."
"Because the Zhang family is a big family in the village, they are used to being arrogant, and Lao Jin's family came from other places, they are usually kind to others, and they are also keeping their tails between their legs in the village, and dare not offend others!"
Afraid that Qin Yu didn't understand, Captain Yuan also explained: "In a place like the village, whoever has more family members is more powerful!"
Qin Yu nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.
"And Zhang Er also felt that he didn't do anything and didn't see anything, so he thought about leaving."
"But how could Lao Jin let this happen? No man can stand it, right? Immediately, Lao Jin took a stick under the influence of alcohol and broke Zhang Er's head!"
"Zhang Er couldn't stand it, so he went back angrily to call for help!"
"And Lao Jin's family also realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly prepared to take his wife and children out to hide for a while. As a result, before they could pack their luggage, a group of people from the Li family surrounded the Jin family in a mighty manner, asking Lao Jin to give an explanation!"
"Faced with this group of aggressive people, Lao Jin was a brave man who didn't want to suffer a loss in front of him, so he thought about spending money to avoid disaster and pay for the medicine."
"Lao Jin was able to come here from another place to settle down, and his family was relatively well-off. The villagers had been envious for a long time, and now that they had waited for this opportunity, they immediately asked for a huge sum of money. "
"The village chief is also a member of the Zhang family. He immediately asked for a cow and ten taels of silver. In addition, the money for Zhang Er's treatment should be paid by Lao Jin. "
"Although the Zhang family asked for a lot, Lao Jin did not dare to refuse, so he could only grit his teeth and agree. "
"But the Zhang family is used to being arrogant in the village. Zhang Er's parents saw that Lao Jin was easy to bully, so they immediately raised the stakes again. "
"Not only do they want money, but they also want to break Lao Jin's legs to avenge his son. "
"And the village chief is in cahoots with Zhang Er's parents, constantly bullying Lao Jin. I guess they want to take this opportunity to abolish Lao Jin and slowly eat up the remaining property of Lao Jin's family! "
Qin Yu now knows why the village chief was the first to die. He really deserves it!
Captain Yuan continued, "As the saying goes, even a clay man can still have some temper. Faced with such an unreasonable request, Lao Jin would naturally not agree."
"Originally, this matter was not Lao Jin's fault. As a result, Lao Jin not only had to pay money and hand over the cow, but also had his legs broken. If his legs were broken, would he have to demolish the house?"
"In fact, Lao Jin's character is still good, and he has many friends in the village, but those people who wanted to come forward to mediate were all scared back by the Zhang family."
"The two sides started fighting during the dispute, and Lao Jin was naturally pressed to the ground and beaten by the Zhang family."
"The mother and daughter in the room heard the noise and rushed out. Lao Jin's daughter was hit on the back of the head with a stick in a panic and died on the spot."
"Lao Jin and Lao Jin's wife cried loudly and were determined to report this matter to the City Lord's Mansion!"
"The village chief and The Zhang family was also terrified. They just wanted money at first, but they didn't expect that someone would die!"
"Especially the village chief and several adults in the Zhang family were very scared. If the city lord knew about this, they would die."
"Then the village chief and the Zhang family discussed and decided to do it once and for all!"
"So, this situation happened now!"
"They killed the family of three, tied them to rocks and sank them to the bottom of the lake."
"That night, they divided up the property of the old Jin family. The most valuable old yellow cattle was naturally taken away by the village chief. In order to prevent anyone from leaking the secret, everyone got the property of the old Jin family!"
"The villagers all got things, and they didn't dare to provoke the Zhang family. Naturally, it was better to have less trouble than more, and just pretend that this incident had never happened."
"But they didn't expect that the old Jin family would become vengeful spirits and make this matter a big deal!"
