This time, even Xue Qian was stunned. She turned to look at Mr. Ma without saying a word, her eyes were obviously a little confused, and she said to Pei Yuanxiu: "Mr.... what is his morality? You, what do you mean?"

When Pei Yuanxiu looked at Mr. Ma, his eyes became more and more cold. He said, "I want to ask, what are you doing in the woods in front of Gantang Village?"

The woods in front of Gantang Village?

When I heard this, my brows frowned.

I vaguely remember when I first came here, I asked Aunt Hong. After Butu died, they dealt with it. Aunt Hong told me that as long as outsiders come to Gantang Village and die here, they will be buried in the woods.

He asked what this did?

Mr. Ma didn't say anything, but the young villagers behind him walked up to him and said, "We are all a family in Gantang Village. Anyone who comes here and dies, they cannot be buried in our cemetery. That wood is their cemetery."

Pei Yuanxiu's eyes were cold, he smiled faintly, and nodded: "No, people are dying in peace. This is the last bit of dignity that is born as a human being."

Everyone was a little surprised.

He was just talking about the Yan family, but when he suddenly talked about this, he said, "being buried in peace" and "being born as the last dignity"... What does it mean?

But he could not be aimless.

Just as the alarm bell sounded in my heart, Pei Yuanxiu held his hands behind his back and looked at Old Master Ma with a cold look: "I want to ask, no matter what my subordinate did, he killed someone but was just a lie. Why did the old man want to storm him in the wilderness?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was uproared.

I was also shocked: "What did you say?"

Pei Yuanxiu said: "Butu's body was destroyed by them."

I gasped.

At this time, the villagers immediately shouted: "Nothing nonsense!"

"We won't do such a thing!"

"You're swearing!"

Those people were clamoring, and some even went to the woods to verify immediately. Pei Yuanxiu said coldly: "He is mine. Will I see him stop storing you from trampling on the body, and never mind, just let his body be placed there for others to trample on? I have already cleaned up his body."

At this time, Yan Gang next to him immediately came to his senses and said, "Yes, I remembered this incident. At that time, I felt unbearable to see it. I just cared about sacrificing my ancestors, so I didn't have time to mention it. Lao Ma-" He looked at Mr. Ma with contempt in his eyes: "No matter what, this approach is really dirty!"

The villagers said angrily: "This is impossible!"

Pei Yuanxiu said coldly: "If you hadn't let him corpse out of the wilderness and a forest of woods, how could I find his corpse in such a short time?"

At this moment, everyone was stunned.

Although everyone believed that he was lying and slandering, it was the case that he was not present when dealing with Butu's body. In such a large forest, even if people who have lived here for a long time, it is not so easy to find a designated location, let alone to go in and find a corpse?

Is this really the case?

I subconsciously turned to look at Mr. Ma, but saw him breathing a sigh of relief.

I was stunned.

Aunt Hong came forward in surprise and said softly: "Old man, have you forgotten to let them bury the bodies of those people?"

Mr. Ma frowned again.

Obviously, he himself was a little confused. After all, that kind of thing could not be done by a respected person like him, but everyone in this village is under his jurisdiction. Such a big thing will naturally be pursued on him, and more importantly,

It is really bad to storm people in the wilderness. I still remember the thrilling anger in my heart when Chang Qing's body was trampled by Shengjing's soldiers in the Battle of Dongzhou. It was the first time that I really ignored my own safety. The anger made me insist on staying there, watching how Luo Shi and the others failed, and to see how they regained their dignity for Chang Qing.

If Butu's body is really "handled" like that, then-

At this time, a few young people walked out from behind the crowd. They walked to Mr. Ma and said anxiously: "Mr., we really haven't done that before. Please believe us!"

Their expressions were also very serious. After all, Gantang Village is a village dedicated to guarding the ancestral halls, and it attaches great importance to this. If it is reported that they will storm people in the wilderness, the reputation of the entire village will be ruined.

Seeing that those people were going to explain something, he raised his hand and stopped them from talking.

Everyone looked at him.

He looked at Pei Yuanxiu and said quietly: "There must be something wrong with this matter. I will find out the truth."

Pei Yuanxiu just looked at him coldly and said nothing, and Yan Gang immediately said, "How do you check it? That's your business, but Mr. Pei's words are right. Even such things that are inhumane can appear in Gantang Village. It is indeed because of your lack of virtue. How can a person who has lost his morality judge the major affairs of our Yan family? I will never let you affect the safety of our Yan family!"

Mr. Ma squinted his eyes slightly: "What do you want to do?"

Yan Gang looked back at Yan Yong, and Yan Yong immediately stepped forward and said, "After this happened, I think you are no longer qualified to be the village chief of Gantang Village. If you ask you to continue to protect the ancestral hall, it will also defile the reputation of our Yan family ancestors!"

I became anxious as soon as I heard this.

They were going to continue this matter to drive Mr. Ma out of Gantang Village. We originally planned to suppress Yan Gang with his identity and status, but if he was driven away, we would lose a lot of help!

I immediately stepped forward and said, "This matter has not been clarified yet. It is really irresponsible to just say that."

Yan Yong said coldly: "For such an important thing as protecting the ancestral hall, one should have chosen people with strong moral character. If such a loss of morality occurs, of course we must have a hero cut off his arms, even if——"

"Even if the good person is wronged?"

"Are you a good person? Do you have the final say?"

Just as we were tit-for-tat and the people around us started to quarrel, suddenly, a voice that seemed a little weak sounded timidly—

“Yes, it’s me.”

Originally, everyone was arguing, and no one noticed it, and the voice was said lightly: "It's me."

This time, everyone stopped one after another.
