Myths Begin From Boys' Gong

Although there is martial arts in the world where the Tianyuan Kingdom exists, it is actually closer to the feudal dynasty where Meng Zhao's first life lived. People are very ignorant and have always believed in ghosts, gods, demons, immortals and Buddhas.

Take Gao Daxian for example, no one in the village would offend him. Even though Gao Daxian sometimes behaves like a jack of all trades, he still has a relatively high status and influence in Xiaohan Village and even in the surrounding villages, which is enough to prove it.

Therefore, apart from those vicious and crazy people who are truly fearless of heaven, earth, and even ghosts and gods, there are really few people who dare to do anything wrong about this matter.

At the door, San Gouzi looked at Meng Zhao, who was serious and not at all panicked, and secretly clicked his tongue. This was really amazing.

He also discovered that his good friend had become a completely different person after he came to his senses and changed his character. He became extremely courageous.

As for Wen San, although Meng Zhao swore and swore, he also had some doubts, but he quickly realized that swearing does not represent everything, nor does it represent the truth of the matter. What if you really are a person who is not afraid of anything?

If you think about it carefully, if Li Zheng really killed the person, he must have undergone a huge change from being a cowardly person in the past to being the murderer he is today. It is not impossible that he has become a vicious man or a madman.

Therefore, he immediately questioned,
"Swear, what's the point of swearing? Can a murderer prove that he didn't kill anyone just by swearing?"

This is not wrong. Murderers should be punished and may even be executed. If swearing an oath can get rid of suspicion, then countless murderers will definitely do so, even if their oath will come true later.

After all, if you don’t swear, you will die immediately. If you swear, you will die later, but you will live longer, so it’s a gain no matter how you look at it.

Meng Zhao was not very angry. He just glanced at Wen San and smiled.

"Third brother, I am just expressing my attitude. Since the elders asked me to speak, I must put myself in the right position and express my attitude. Swearing does not mean anything, but this is my sincerity!"

The more Wen San looked at it, the more he felt something was not right. When did Li Zheng become so eloquent and eloquent?
Even though Han Dali and others had never had a good impression of Li Zheng in the past, they were now treated with respect and elder by him, and they were very flattered. They would still be more or less biased towards and caring for Li Zheng.

People who are sweet-talkers will never suffer any loss.

"Okay, Wen San, you are still under suspicion. You don't need to speak up. You are not the one who makes the decisions in this room!"

Sun Datou coughed twice and warned Wen San, "If you continue to be so unreasonable, no one will give you any face."

Wen San's face also froze, and he said nothing. He obviously didn't dare to confront the people in the room.

He still had some idea in his mind that he seemed to be capable in this Xiaohan Village, but in fact he was just a small-time guy. The so-called brothers were mostly drinking buddies and friends. They might help him when the wind was in his favor, but they would not even look at him when the wind was against him.

In terms of prestige, he cannot even compare with old men like Han Dali.

Therefore, even when Sun Datou criticized him, he could only suppress his anger and dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.

Seeing and hearing the three things, Zhang Shitou asked,
"A Zheng, you are not an outsider. Wen San would not blame you for no reason. What do you have to say if he wants to pin this matter on you?"

Meng Zhao pretended to be innocent and said,

"Please tell me carefully, elders, where I am suspected. Li Quezi and I have no grudges against each other, so why should I kill him?
Let alone killing people, with my temper, I would probably have to think for a long time before even killing a chicken.

So, how can you say that I killed Li Guizi and put the blame on Wen San?"

"I know that in the eyes of the elders, Wen San and I have a bad relationship, but this is not something I took the initiative to cause. I have always wanted to get closer to Wen San. He has always bullied me, but I did not fight back. I have always been patient and yielded. Isn't this enough?
As for killing Li Cuzi and then putting the blame on Wen San, that is even more absurd.

First, there is a reason why I didn't kill Li Guizi. Second, if I really wanted to target Wen San, I could have targeted him a long time ago. Why wait until today?"

Han Dali shook his head.

"No, that's not true. If it was you in the past, we certainly wouldn't have doubted you. However, you've changed a lot in the past few days. Not only did you punish Yang Xiaoshu and Ma Feng, but your personality is also very different. We can't generalize to the past.

Also, it wasn’t that you didn’t want to take revenge on Wen San in the past, you just didn’t have the strength to do so. But in the past few days, someone taught you kung fu, and you felt that you had the strength to take revenge, so you naturally won’t continue to endure it. "

It’s no wonder that Han Dali is the head of the village. He thinks quickly and lists out Meng Zhao’s suspicions.

Meng Zhao smiled,

"Village chief, elders, after all this talk, you are still speculating based on the hatred between me and Wen San that I killed Li Guizi and deliberately framed him.

But, I wonder if you have ever thought about another possibility.

For example, someone did kill Li Cuzi and deliberately framed Wen San, but that person was not me but someone else?
I think everyone is very clear about Wen San's personality and behavior. There are many people in the village who are dissatisfied with him and even hate him.

As far as I know, Wen San also hooked up with several married women in the village.

As the old saying goes, the hatred for killing one's father and the hatred for stealing one's wife are irreconcilable.

The little hatred between Wen San and I is nothing. Is it worth it for me to kill someone? And why would I deliberately make such a bad arrangement to frame him?
To be honest, I have nothing to do with this whole thing. It's just that Wen San suspected me, so you targeted me. This is really unfair and unjust. "

Yes, no matter what you do, you must pay attention to preparation and evidence.

On the surface, Meng Zhao and Li Quezi had no connection at all, at least in Li Quezi's murder case.

As for some minor conflicts in the past, they are nothing at all. If people really keep harping on this point, then there will be quite a few suspects in the entire Xiaohan Village.

When handling a case, evidence is still necessary. If there is no evidence and it is simply based on false accusations and speculation, no one will be convinced.

The reason why Meng Zhao was so confident was that there was no surface evidence implicating him.

Even when he strangled Li Guizi to death, he used his energy and blood to stimulate his hands, making them much larger, making them look like a rough middle-aged man.

Without evidence, even if the people in power in these villages are powerful, they cannot put the blame on him.

Xiaohan Village is, after all, just a grassroots unit. Some things cannot be done too ugly, and they cannot do whatever they want. The people are watching them, and any tricks can easily lead to the loss of prestige of these people.

Take Meng Zhao for example. If there is no evidence today, the blame can be put on him. If another person dies tomorrow, can the death be blamed on another person without any evidence again?
This is a matter that involves one's own actual interests and rights, and everyone must stand on the side of the disadvantaged group.

Of course, if Meng Zhao had a flaw, that would be a different matter. It would not cause too much dispute, but would instead result in a very ugly death.

Meng Zhao's move really caught everyone off guard. Yes, no matter from which angle you look at it, Meng Zhao had nothing to do with Li Guizi's death. If those minor conflicts were brought into the picture, there would be few families in the huge village of Dahan who could be innocent.

The reason why the target was targeted at Meng Zhao was only because of Wen San's connections. However, Wen San only had oral narration, and he was even just suspicious but could not say that this was the fact.

Suddenly, everyone was in trouble.

And for some reason, Meng Zhao spoke so eloquently and confidently, which made them even more suspicious that he was the one who did it.

But suspicion cannot feed you, there must be evidence.

Either Li Zheng admitted it himself, or there was obvious and conclusive evidence that forced him to admit it.

This is a troublesome matter. Would Li Zheng be so stupid as to admit to murder?
At the door, San Gouzi was extremely excited, his eyes sparkling. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would have jumped up and celebrated wildly.

A Zheng, well done, I didn’t expect you to have such an idea!

San Gouzi was a smart man. At this moment, he completely understood Meng Zhao's intention. He also knew that this move was an invincible one. Unless he, San Gouzi, stabbed Meng Zhao in the back, he would never lose.

After a pause, seeing that everyone was silent and Wen San was looking at him intently, Meng Zhao said,
"There is another possibility, I don't know whether I should say it or not!"

Although Han Dali was very dissatisfied with Meng Zhao's last sentence that it was unfair and unjust, he was not the only one who had the final say and would not tolerate others speaking.

"Just tell us what you want to say. We will figure out the truth!"

Meng Zhao smiled at Wen San and said,
"I have heard about the whole thing from others. I know that the turning point of the whole thing is the ring that Wen San lost. I wonder if this is true?"

Sun Datou looked at Meng Zhao's tall and straight figure with great interest. He was recognized by Wu Laodao as a martial arts genius, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

None of his children were great figures and did not inherit his talent for martial arts. However, his eldest granddaughter was quite good.

If we can invite this kid to be our grandson-in-law, and then betray Wu Laodao in the future and pass the inheritance to Li Zheng, then wouldn't all his martial arts still belong to our grandson family?
Sun Datou has already seen that Wu Laodao either doesn't teach anyone, or if he wants to teach martial arts, the first choice will definitely be Li Zheng, who has a strong talent for martial arts, and no one else.

If you have thoughts in your mind, you will naturally have more kindness.
"That's right. We have already confirmed that Wen San's ring was lost a long time ago. Therefore, we suspect that this was framed on him after the murder."

Meng Zhao shook his head,
"Is it possible that this person is really Wen Sansha, and all of this was deliberately arranged by him, with the purpose of first directing the suspicion towards me, and then cleverly using a ring to remove the suspicion from myself, and ultimately, fish in troubled waters and divert the trouble away?"

When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked, especially Wen San. His hands were shaking with anger, and looking at Meng Zhao's eyes, he wished he could kill him.

But Meng Zhao was not afraid at all. He just stood there calmly, allowing everyone's eyes to scan him all over, without moving.

Sun Datou was stunned for a moment, then he thought about it and pondered it. He found that what Meng Zhao said made sense.

It's like I predicted your prediction, which shows that Wen San is very scheming.

“You are all elders of my Xiaohan Village. You are either rich in life experience or wise as deep as the ocean. Ordinary strategies cannot be hidden from you.

For example, if I really did this and wanted to frame Wen San, then I would only need to kill Li Guizi. Naturally, the target of suspicion would be Wen San. Why would I have to leave behind a ring with such an obvious flaw?
Unless Wen San also knows that the elders are fair and intelligent people who will not be easily fooled by superficial evidence, so he designed this tortuous plan, the purpose is to divert attention and conceal the truth. "

Zhang Shitou nodded first, then shook his head.
"No, it is true that Wen San's ring was lost. This incident happened much earlier than when Li Guizi was killed. It cannot be false."

Meng Zhao hummed.
“That’s what he said, but what if Wen San found the ring along the way, but kept it a secret for the sake of face?
I think everyone has had this experience: you left something at home but just can’t find it no matter how hard you look. Wen San might be in the same situation.

However, he did it in a more high-profile manner, so many people knew about it. If the truth were to come out, wouldn’t he lose face?

That way, even if he finds the ring, he might be able to keep it secret.”

As Wen San listened, his face became increasingly darker, yet he couldn't help but feel a little terrified. Damn it, why didn't he realize before that Li Zheng was such a talkative guy that he even believed what he said.

After all, this character is really Wen San, there is nothing wrong with it.

Not to mention Wen San, even San Gouzi was filled with questions after hearing what Meng Zhao said. Could it be that Wen San really killed him, and then deliberately created confusion to get rid of his suspicion?
Others have shared this idea.

In particular, what Meng Zhao said was well-founded.

If they really want to frame Wen San, they just have to kill him. Given the friction and hatred between Wen San and Li Quezi, as well as Wen San's courage to kill during the last robbery, the number one suspect is Wen San.

There was no need to go to such lengths. Putting down a ring allowed Wen San to temporarily escape suspicion.

We can’t blame people like Han Dali for wavering and not making a firm decision.

The simple reason is that they are not professionals and have no idea how to solve cases or track down the murderer.

Moreover, they are easily influenced by the outside world, resulting in emotional and biased thoughts.

When Wen San said that Li Zheng was a suspect, they believed it, so they called Li Zheng over for a confrontation.

Li Zheng said that Wen San was a suspect, and they had to believe him because what he said was actually quite reasonable.

In particular, they were praised for their wisdom and life experience, which made this story seem more true! (End of this chapter)
