The Big Farmer of Time Traveling

Chapter 436

"Drink this bowl of ginger soup. No matter how important things are in the field, they are not as important as people. You know, if a person's body breaks down, he can't do anything." Hu Fulang handed the ginger soup to Zhou Laoliu involuntarily, and said earnestly educate him.

Zhou Laoliu looked at the large bowl of ginger soup and drank it without any eyebrows changing. Then he returned the soup bowl to Hu Fulang and ran out of Hu Langzhong's yard like a wind.

Lin Xiazhi saw Hu Fulang showing signs of nagging again, and he hurriedly pulled over to look at the dead fish still in the yard: "Uncle, this is the dead fish we found in the paddy field at Uncle's house on Saturday. Uncle Saturday went to the field yesterday When I looked at the situation, I haven’t found this fish yet, and judging from the condition of the fish, it doesn’t look like it has been dead for a long time, and it is very likely that it was killed and thrown into the paddy field last night.”

Seeing Lin Xiazhi and the others talk about business, Hu Fulang put away the empty bowls and went into the house to wash them without disturbing them.

Lin Xiazhi continued: "I don't think people in our village did this, what do you think, uncle?"

"I think so too. The people in our village are hurting themselves by doing this. There's no need for that." Li Zheng had the same idea as Lin Xiazhi.

After keeping the same basic point of view, Lin Xiazhi told Li Zheng his guess. After hearing Lin Xiazhi's analysis, Li Zheng broke out in a cold sweat again.

After talking about the speculation, Lin Xiazhi thought about how to solve this matter: "I think if the release of dead fish was caused by people from other villages deliberately destroying our village, he wouldn't just do it this time. Uncle, you and Uncle Saturday came over just now and didn't make a fuss. From the village, right?"

Li Zheng replied: "No, no, people in our village are working outside at this time, and few people are lazy at home. Brother Xia, what do you think?"

"The people in the village don't know, and the person who did the bad thing certainly won't know. If he continues to release dead fish later, when he releases dead fish again, we will catch him and send him to the government." Lin Xiazhi's thoughts It's very simple. To catch a thief, you must catch the stolen goods. After you have evidence, let the people from the government come forward to solve it.

This problem can be big or small. If it is small, someone put dead fish in the paddy fields to destroy the crops and fish fry of an acre of land. If it is big, it can become deliberate poisoning or even murder.

Since that person dares to do such a bad thing, he must have the awareness to face punishment.

Li Zhengyi clapped his hands: "Yes! Come and get the stolen goods, send the poisoner to the government, and let the county magistrate judge."

"Fortunately, it was discovered early this time. Otherwise, when more fish die, our village's rice field fish farming will be ruined regardless of whether it succeeds in the end." Lin Xiazhi sighed.

Fortunately, he has the habit of often going back to the village to look at the rice fields in the village. Without a golden finger, it is really difficult to find out the problem before it breaks out.

"I heard from Zhou Laoliu that you were the first to discover the problem. How did you notice it, Brother Xia?" Li Zheng was very curious about Lin Xiazhi's discovery of a problem in the rice field. He couldn't help but suspect that it was Lin Xiazhi's head.

"It just feels wrong. I can't explain exactly what's wrong. It's as if someone whispered in my ear that there is something wrong with that field." Lin Xiazhi said it mysteriously, which aroused people's imagination.

After Lizheng heard this, he really thought too much. He guessed whether the ancestors of Linjiacun had blessed the village and told Lin Xiazhi that there was a problem with the fields in the village, or some other gods thought that Lin Xiazhi looked pleasing to the eye, so told Lin Xiazhi He these.

Reminiscent of the development of the Lin family over the years, Li Zheng suddenly discovered that Lin Xiazhi had become mysterious.After having these guesses, Li Zheng didn't ask any more questions, lest the ancestors or gods would be dissatisfied by asking too many questions.

Lizheng and Lin Xiazhi had just discussed how to catch and release dead fish when Lin Huzi, Hu Langzhong, and Zhou Laoliu came back.

Hu Langzhong's complexion was better than before he left, and he smiled when he saw the worried eyes of Li Zheng and Lin Xiazhi: "The water in the field is fine, the fish just died not long ago, and it didn't take long to put them in the field, plus the fish body It’s still intact, and the arsenic poison hasn’t leaked into the water, so don’t worry.”

The rice and fish fry in the water were fine, and Zhou Lao Liu's complexion also improved a bit. Of course, it was just a little bit better, but not much better.

"We must house the person who released the dead fish, so that he can't continue to do such bad things!" Zhou Laoliu was still very angry.

"I just told Xia Ge'er how to arrest people, do you want to listen?" Li Zheng looked out twice, and led them into Hu Langzhong's room, "Someone might hear them outside, let's go said inside."

"How to catch?" Zhou Lao Liu couldn't help asking after entering the house:

"Xia Ge'er and I both think that the person who released the dead fish will not only release this one time, so we can get someone to catch him when he releases the dead fish." Li Zheng told him and Lin Xiazhi The way of discussion came out, "It must be at night to do this kind of thing. We will send people to guard near the paddy field near the village at night, and we will catch anyone who is suspicious."

"This is a good way. After I catch this damned son-in-law, I will definitely beat him until his father doesn't even know him!" Zhou Lao Liu seemed to have seen the scene where he beat him to vent his anger after he caught that man.

"Don't hit people casually, we have to arrest them, collect evidence and send them to the government, so that the county magistrate can interrogate him." Lizheng suppressed Zhou Laoliu's excited fists, "Poisoning the paddy fields is the key point." Regarding the matter of the dead, at least three to five years of imprisonment cannot be escaped."

Zhou Lao Liu felt dissatisfied: "Then I can't beat him?"

"Why can't you fight? It's okay to hit those positions that are not easy to be seen." Hu Langzhong suddenly interjected and gave Da Zhou Lao Liu a move, "For example, in this position, if you hit someone, there will be no scars, but it will make people It hurts and heals slowly, and this position..."

Listening to Hu Langzhong actively telling Zhou Lao Liu those places that can be beaten, Lin Xiazhi mourned in his heart for the man who threw the dead fish. If he was really caught, he might be beaten badly, but this kind of People don't deserve sympathy.

……

No one else was told about this matter, only Li Zheng, Hu Langzhong, Lin Huzi, Zhou Laoliu and Lin Xiazhi knew about it.

Because they had to watch by the field at night, Hu Langzhong and Lin Xiazhi were excluded, leaving only Li Zheng, Lin Huzi and Zhou Laoliu.

The three of them are not young anymore, and it is impossible to stay up late every day, so Zhou Laoliu proposed to let the young men of Zhou's family go to the field to watch.

"No, the Zhou family has a lot of gossip. Once it is said, it is easy to leak the news. When the people who have been cast to death find out, our previous efforts will be wasted." Li Zheng was the first to stand up and object.

Lin Huzi thought for a while and took the initiative to stand up: "Why don't I go back and ask my family's Chengzu, and every night, two people from my family's tofu shop will go to the field to guard."

There are many young and strong men in the Lin's tofu house, and they all work in the Lin's tofu house on weekdays. The news is not easy to spread, but it is a good choice, it just depends on whether Lin Chengzu is willing or not.

Lin Xiazhi watched from the side, he felt that his elder brother would definitely not be unwilling, two people a day, so many people in the tofu shop could take turns.Besides, there is no need to fight a long battle to find the person who cast the dead fish, and he can be caught in a few days.

Since they wanted help from the people from the Lin family's tofu shop, there was no need to discuss it with Hu Langzhong's house, and everyone moved to the Lin family.

There was not much to do about Lin Xiazhi, so he went back to the Lin family and took the carriage of the Cheng family back to Jiangning County, and waited a few days before checking the news from the village.

After discussing with Lin Chengzu, Lin Huzi, Li Zheng and Zhou Laoliu would lend out two people from the tofu shop every day. Lin Huzi, Li Zheng and Zhou Laoliu would work in three-day shifts.

Linjiacun is still as peaceful as before. No one knows that someone released dead fish with arsenic in the paddy field of Zhou Laoliu's family, and no one knows that this matter has been known by Lizheng and others. Everyone is preparing to catch and release dead fish people.

The person who released the dead fish has been paying attention to the movement of Linjiacun. After seeing it for two days, no one found it. Taking advantage of the night, he brought a new dead fish to Linjiacun. He first went to Zhou Laoliu's paddy field to take a look. Did the dead fish I cast two days ago have any effect?

It stands to reason that two days have passed, and the fish in Zhou Laoliu's family should have been poisoned by eating the dead fish he put in, but under the moonlight, Zhou Laoliu's paddy fields are still clear, and there is not a single dead fish floating on the water.

At this moment, he suddenly heard someone behind him ask: "Do you think it's strange, why are there no dead fish yet?"

That's exactly what he was thinking: "Yeah, why not?"

"Because you are about to be arrested!" Zhou Laoliu punched him in the ribs and threw him to the ground.

"I've caught someone, come and help me tie him up!" Zhou Laoliu shouted and beat the man.

The Zhou family members are all tall and strong, and their fists hurt much more than ordinary people. The man was knocked to the ground the first time, and then he was beaten several times by Zhou Lao Liu. It was so painful that he couldn't even cry out.

The Lin family followed Zhou Laoliu on patrol, lit a torch and walked over, waiting for Zhou Laoliu to beat him up before taking out a rope to tie him up.

With the torch, Zhou Laoliu saw clearly who the person he had just beaten was not a stranger to Zhou Laoliu, a bum from Niuer Village next door to him—Niu Mingxia.

Two years ago, a nephew of Zhou Laoliu fell in love with a brother in Niuer Village next door. It happened that Niu Mingxia also liked that brother. At that time, the two had a conflict. His nephew defeated Niu Mingxia and married back his favorite brother When they got married, Niu Mingxia brought people to Zhou's house to make trouble, and was beaten away by many strong men in Zhou's house. He didn't expect to catch him today.

"Niu Mingxia, why did you release dead fish into my field?" Zhou Laoliu couldn't help but beat him up again.

"I--"

Before Niu Mingxia could reply, Zhou Laoliu beat him up again: "You don't need to say it now, just wait until dawn to see the official with me."

Zhou Laoliu beat him up, let out some anger in his heart, and dragged him to Lizheng's house.
