After being expelled from the sect, I became the villain mentor
Chapter 20 Crime
The next morning, the five of them got up early and prepared to go out and ask around about the origin of the sachet.
But unexpectedly, they were not the only ones who woke up early in the morning. In addition to the maids and servants sweeping with brooms and rags, Fan Yao was also standing in the yard early, seemingly taking a walk.
Liu An was walking in a hurry, and the sachet in his arms fell to the ground, which was seen by Fan Yao.
Fan Yao saw the sachet and seemed very excited. "Where did you get it from?"
Sensing that Fan Yao was unusual, Liu An sensed something was amiss. He picked up the sachet from the ground and tucked it into his arms. "Madam Fan, of course I found this... Could it be that Madam Fan knows the origin of this sachet, or knows the person who embroidered it?"
As if remembering something, Fan Yao's face darkened, "I don't know him."
After saying that, Fan Yao hurriedly left with the maid, as if she had something urgent to do. Several people stared at Fan Yao's back meaningfully, and only left the Chen Mansion after watching them disappear.
After asking passers-by on the street about the respected elders in their hometown, the five of them found their way to the home of the retired mayor.
The mayor didn't know the origin of the sachet, but his wife was surprised when she saw it: "Where did you get this sachet?"
Yu Nian was delighted: "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"This sachet was made by Miss Fan Yao of the Fan family. Her embroidery skills have always been the best in our town. Only she can embroider such an exquisite sachet. I won't make a mistake. This is definitely embroidered by Fan Yao."
Everyone looked at each other and saw the same determination in each other's eyes.
This sachet was obtained from a ghost cultivator, and this sachet was made by Fan Yao... The suspicion that Fan Yao was practicing evil magic and controlling monsters was even more serious.
"Auntie, how do you know this?"
"There's nothing I don't know about what's going on in our town, which girl has a crush on which boy, which yard has a fire, how many litters a sow has given birth to...!" The old lady's eyes were filled with the blazing fire of gossip.
Everyone: "..."
"When I was young, I could even find the private money this old man hid in the rat hole!"
Everyone: "..."
The old man lowered his head and pressed the shoulder of the old lady who was about to reveal her family's shame, and whispered in a flattering voice, "Ahem, stop talking about Hua'er, give me some face..."
"You hid your private money and went to Yihongyuan to pick up a young girl, and you didn't let me tell you!" The old lady twisted the old man's ear and raised her voice, "Tell me, are you going to wait for me to die before you, and then find a younger one?"
Yu Nian noticed an awkward expression on the old woman's face and said, "Auntie, could you tell us about Fan Yao?"
The old lady let go of the hand that was twisting the old man's ear, and the old man gave Yu Nian a look full of gratitude.
"You've asked the right person. When Fan Yao was little, she rarely interacted with others. She only had one childhood sweetheart, Wen Bo, the young master of the Wen family. The two have been together since childhood and can be said to be childhood sweethearts. Their family backgrounds are similar. The Wen and Fan families can be said to have secretly regarded each other's children as their own, waiting for Wen Bo and Fan Yao to grow up and become in-laws.
This was supposed to be a beautiful thing, but who would have thought that Fan Yao would encounter a monster in the mountains! It was a peach tree monster, handsome in disguise, and good at bewitching people. Fan Yao was simple-minded and was soon tricked into it. She expressed her love to him, and the peach tree monster actually agreed, and the two of them secretly got married.
Not only did the Fan family disagree with this absurd thing, even the Wen family was not happy about their favorite daughter-in-law being abducted. Wen Bo found the well-traveled doctor Zhang, suppressed the peach tree monster, and cut down the other peach trees. Originally, the peach tree monster's body was also going to be cut down, but for some reason, it was left behind.
Fan Yao was disheartened and married Wen Bo. She was already weak and became bedridden after the marriage.
Wen Bo has always admired Fan Yao, but he knows that Fan Yao only has the peach tree monster in her heart. However, he still takes good care of Fan Yao day after day. We have all witnessed his infatuation with our own eyes. However, Fan Yao has never seen the good in the people around her and has always been thinking about the monster!
Fan Yao has always been weak. Fortunately, the Wen family is wealthy and uses various precious medicinal herbs to keep Fan Yao alive. Otherwise, she would have died long ago."
The last bit of doubt in Yu Nian's mind was dispelled. Since his mind had no thoughts of life, why bother practicing evil magic to prolong his life? He was afraid that the one who really practiced evil magic was not Fan Yao.
It is very likely that Doctor Zhang is the one who teaches the evil magic, and he was found by Wen Bo, so everything makes sense.
"Auntie, I wonder if that miraculous doctor Zhang still lives in town?"
"He's here. Just walk south along the main street and you'll find his house. Why are you asking?"
"Let's go find him and find out more," Yu Nian said with a smile. "Thank you so much for today, Auntie. Please forgive me for disturbing you."
The old lady smiled and said, "I won't bother you. I hope I can help you. Please help us find the murderer who kidnapped the bride. Otherwise, everyone will be in a panic and have no peace."
"Don't worry, we will definitely catch it."
"thanks, thanks."
Several people left the old mayor's house and headed south to find the so-called doctor Zhang's house.
Perhaps because he knew he could no longer hide the truth, the genius doctor didn't even bother trying to cover it up, and the house was shrouded in a thick, evil aura.
"Surround this yard and don't give him a chance to escape!" Yu Nian kicked open the door and walked in first, while the others stood guard outside the yard.
At this moment, black fog rolled in, and countless vengeful spirits shuttled through it, making the surroundings blurry.
Yu Nian pasted the Wind Talisman, which transformed into countless afterimages and began to disperse the evil spirits like a meat grinder.
A figure quietly stepped forward and attacked the vital point on Yu Nian's back, but was stopped by a cold sword energy.
Yu Nian turned around, and a thin thread shot out from her fingertips. Every part of Doctor Zhang's body that was entangled by the thread began to freeze inch by inch.
The master was captured, the black mist in the air gradually dissipated, Doctor Zhang lay motionless on the ground, and the original layout of the yard changed drastically.
Suddenly, more than a dozen women's bodies appeared in the originally empty yard.
These women were all wearing wedding dresses. They were the missing brides. Some of them had been sucked dry and looked like they had been dead for a long time, with maggots growing on their bodies. Some were still alive, but half of their bodies were hollowed out and their life force was extremely low.
Looking at this scene, Yu Nian and Liu An's faces turned pale, and they felt a chill all over their bodies and almost vomited.
Yu Nian felt a surge of pity in his heart. "Let's go to the town first and get some people to move the bodies. And at the same time, let the families of the brides come and claim them."
When the people in the town heard that the bride had been found, they all rushed to the ruined courtyard of Doctor Zhang. The parents and family members of the brides also hurried over, and when they saw their daughters' bodies, they burst into tears.
They had all hoped that their daughter would return safely, but now all they got was her dead body.
All of these brides were young girls in their prime, but now they died so miserably. It is really a sin.
Just as everyone was feeling sad, Wang Yang pointed at Dr. Zhang and yelled, attracting everyone's attention, "No! Look!"
