Chapter 446 Strange Tales of Yun'an (1)
After leaving Renjia Town, Ren Yinyin and Shi Shaojian, the lovers, began their journey of traveling the world together.
Along the way, they encountered countless strange and bizarre events, including the mischief of demons and the evil deeds of human hearts.
But no matter what difficulties and challenges they encounter, they always support each other and overcome them together.
On this day, they arrived at Yun'an County, a small county town on the banks of the Yangtze River.
As soon as they entered the county town, Ren Yinyin and Shi Shaojian noticed that many people were excitedly calling to their friends and walking in one direction.
Out of curiosity, they inquired and learned that these people were going to the execution ground to watch death row inmates being executed by firing squad.
“Someone was executed, and the people were so happy. This person has incurred the wrath of the masses!” Ren Yinyin exclaimed.
Shi Shaojian held Ren Yin's hand and said, "People who commit many evils are usually different from ordinary people. Let's go and see. If this person is really evil, we can't let him have the opportunity to cause trouble after he dies."
"Senior brother, you're already taking precautions now!" Ren Yinyin teased with a smile.
Shi Shaojian smiled and said, "Having suffered so many losses, one naturally learns a lesson!"
People who harbor resentment before death are prone to causing trouble after death; these two have seen quite a few such cases!
"Senior brother, I think the whole county has probably come to see what's going on!"
When they arrived at the execution ground, they found that a large crowd had already gathered there, and everyone was talking about it.
Through conversations with those around them, they learned that the criminal about to be executed was none other than Li Lao Er, a notorious bully in this small county.
It is said that this Li Lao Er was a notorious villain who committed all sorts of evil deeds.
He not only kicked down widows' doors and harassed young women and wives, but also frequently dined and dashed and collected protection money. Many people in the county hated him to the core.
However, because Li Laoshou had many thugs and gangsters working under him, and because he himself was tall, strong, and had a menacing face, making him look very intimidating, most people dared not speak out against him and could only silently endure his bullying.
Fortunately, a while ago, a detective named Zhou Zhiyang, who was fiercely opposed to evil, came to the police station!
Not long after Detective Zhou arrived at the police station, he heard about Li Lao Er's many evil deeds.
He was determined to bring this villain to justice and restore fairness to society.
After a thorough investigation, Detective Zhou finally obtained enough evidence to prove that Li Lao Er had committed multiple crimes.
Without hesitation, he led a team of police officers to arrest Li Lao Er in a menacing manner.
However, to everyone's surprise, Li Lao Er was so arrogant and domineering.
When the police arrived, he showed no fear and even injured several officers.
Upon seeing this, Detective Zhou was enraged. He decisively drew his pistol, aimed at Li Lao Er's leg, and fired without hesitation.
With a gunshot, Li Lao Er screamed and fell to the ground. The other thugs and gangsters were so frightened that they scattered and fled.
After Li Lao Er was successfully captured, he was escorted back to the police station.
Just then, an old man suddenly appeared at the entrance of the police station. He was pale and looked indignant, clearly having a grievance to appeal.
It turned out that the old man's daughter was only sixteen years old and as beautiful as a flower, but unfortunately she was stopped and harassed by Li Lao Er.
Even more heinous, Li Lao Er took advantage of a moment when no one was looking and committed a violent act against the old man's daughter.
Unable to bear the humiliation, the old man's daughter ultimately chose to hang herself.
This was undoubtedly a huge disaster for the old man and his family.
The family members had tried to reason with Li Lao Er on several occasions, but he had ruthlessly beaten them each time.
They had also gone to the police station to file a complaint, but the detective at the time was only interested in making money and ignored their grievances. He simply dismissed the old man and his family on the grounds of insufficient evidence.
Now that Detective Zhou has successfully apprehended Li Lao Er, the old man who had always wanted to avenge his daughter has finally felt relieved.
After listening to the old man's tearful account, Detective Zhou took the case very seriously and decided to investigate it thoroughly himself.
After two full days of in-depth investigation, Detective Zhou finally got to the bottom of the matter.
When he learned about the numerous crimes committed by Li Lao Er, his anger was instantly ignited.
He reported the situation to the bureau chief without hesitation and insisted that Li Lao Er be executed.
Ultimately, after trial, the court sentenced Li Lao Er to death, to be carried out immediately.
On the day of the execution, many people who had grudges against Li Lao Er entered the execution ground.
From afar, they saw Li Lao Er bound hand and foot and placed on the execution platform, a disdainful smile on his face, as if his impending death meant nothing to him.
"Look at him, he shows no remorse whatsoever!" someone shouted angrily.
"Damn Li Lao Er, may you go to hell!"
Enraged, people cursed and swore that Li Lao Er would be reborn as an animal in his next life and be killed and eaten!
Detective Zhou stood to the side with a serious expression, his eyes firm and sharp, as if telling everyone that justice would surely be served.
Just as the executioner raised his gun, Li Lao Er suddenly let out a piercing scream: "I won't die!"
His voice echoed in the empty execution ground, sending chills down everyone's spine.
Then, he roared viciously, "I will come back to take my revenge on you!"
His gaze was sinister and vicious, like a venomous snake, sweeping over everyone from Detective Zhou to the crowd below the stage, as if trying to imprint their faces deeply into his mind.
However, no one was intimidated by his threats.
"Bang!" With a crisp gunshot, a bloody hole instantly appeared on Li Lao Er's forehead. His body slumped down limply as if his soul had been ripped out.
Upon witnessing this bloody scene, the onlookers all took a few steps back in unison.
Because Li Lao Er's eyes were wide open in anger, and he died with his eyes still open!
Ren Yinyin and Shi Shaojian observed carefully and found that Li Lao Er was indeed completely dead, with his brains spilling out, making it impossible for him to come back to life!
He does harbor some resentment, but not enough to turn him into a ghost and cause trouble.
"Senior brother, it seems we were overthinking things!" Ren Yinyin said with a sigh of relief.
Shi Shaojian nodded, withdrawing his gaze from the corpse, and a smile appeared on his face. "Yinyin, since everything is alright, let's find a hotel to eat and rest!"
Ren Yinyin replied, "Okay, we've been traveling for several days and I'm a bit tired. Let's stay in Yun'an County for a few days!" As she spoke, she thought to herself that her bag was full of dirty clothes she had changed out of over the past few days, and she needed to find a place to wash them properly.
“Okay!” Shi Shaojian readily agreed.
With Li Lao Er dead, the crowd that had been packed tightly together began to slowly disperse.
However, some people did not leave. Holding steamed buns, they stood close to Xingtai, muttering incantations and pleading with the police to smear some blood on their buns, saying that it could cure their illnesses if they took it home.
Detective Zhou, who was standing to the side and had not yet left, frowned upon seeing this scene.
How can anyone believe in such folk remedies that have no scientific basis whatsoever?
He couldn't stand it any longer, so he strode forward and shouted at the ignorant people, telling them to go home and stop making a scene.
