Chapter 410 Norio (3)
When the original owner woke up, she was already in Wang the Hunter's bed, with an iron chain tied to her feet.
The bed was in a mess, and it was obvious what had happened. The original owner assumed that someone had kidnapped her and began to try to untie the chains.
Hunter Wang entered the house to bring some food to the original owner, but found that the original owner was trying to escape. Instead of attacking the original owner directly, he took out the document proposing the sale of his wife.
The original owner didn't believe it and started trying to escape in the days that followed, each escape resulting in a severe beating.
Once, after finally managing to get back to the Zhang family home, he was scolded by Zhang's mother and sent back.
In this world, it's common for wives to be sold, but it's mostly poor families who sell their wives. The Zhang family isn't considered poor.
Although Lin Qiuyu was unwilling, the document was still there, and she could only wait three years for Zhang Xiucai to come and take her home, or wait until she passed the high school entrance exam to take her back.
Although Wang the Hunter's family had no shortage of food and no difficult old mother, they were far from the town, and Wang the Hunter liked to take action after drinking.
Lin Qiuyu's body was covered in wounds, big and small. She hoped that Zhang Xiucai would come to save her.
Scholar Zhang must have pawned her because of the money.
Several months passed, and Zhang Xiucai passed the imperial examination and became a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial-level imperial examinations), but he still did not come to her side.
The original owner stood at the door, waiting for Zhang Xiucai to come every day.
In the end, Scholar Zhang did not take her back; instead, news came that he was going to get married.
The original owner was heartbroken and fainted. When she woke up, the doctor told her that she was two months pregnant, and according to the timeline, it was Wang the hunter's child.
The original owner of the body still had two and a half years left in the wife-selling period, so she stayed behind because running away or going to find Zhang Juren would both be illegal.
After having children, Wang the Hunter rarely hit the original owner anymore, but he would still do so after drinking.
Nine months later, the original owner gave birth to a boy named Ping An, hoping that the child would live a peaceful and safe life.
Wang the hunter also reduced the frequency of his drinking, spent his time playing with the children, and bought clothes for the original owner and the children when he had money. Life gradually improved.
When the child was approaching two years old, the original owner hesitated. She began to treat the child better because she was going to return to the Zhang family after the marriage was over.
She couldn't bear to never see her child again.
Wang the hunter is also considering renewing his contract, at least to raise the child, as he is currently unable to care for a two-year-old.
Before the contract for selling his wife was even over, Wang Ping'an was carried off by a wolf, and the wolf was doing so out of revenge.
Wang the hunter and the original owner only found a tattered piece of clothing and a skull that the wild wolf hadn't finished eating.
The original owner was completely heartbroken, but now she has no more attachments and can go home with Zhang Juren.
Zhang, the scholar, already had one wife and two concubines. His family did not welcome the original owner of this "impure" woman, so at his wife's suggestion, he pawned her off as well.
This time the location is even further away, because they were afraid that the original owner would affect Zhang Juren's career.
The laws of this dynasty clearly stipulate that the sale of wives is prohibited, especially for officials.
The wife-selling arrangement was already set in stone, so they decided to go all the way and send the original owner far away to continue selling her, this time for five years.
The original owner was already numb. The family that released him also had a first wife, but she couldn't have children, so they bought another woman to have children and serve the whole family.
The original owner gave birth to one child, which was carried away by wolves. She then gave birth to another child, a girl, who drowned.
She gave birth again, but in the end, all she was left with were a host of illnesses. She didn't even have the money to take a bus back to the Zhang family, so she had to walk home in the end.
They finally arrived at the Zhang family's house, only to be poisoned to death by Zhang, the scholar.
The original owner was indignant. She didn't know why she was living such a miserable life. She clearly respected her husband and was filial to her parents-in-law. No one in the world was more law-abiding than her.
Why did Zhang Xiucai pawn her again and again? Why did Wang the hunter beat her? Why did wolves take away her child? Why did the first wife of that household abuse her?
Xiong Bufan fell silent. He couldn't blame the original owner for his bad luck; he could only blame himself for lacking strength.
Kongkong: "Extraordinary, not everyone is as powerful as you."
"I know now, what is her wish?"
As they were talking, a man sneaked into the house, carrying a large machete. Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Hunter Wang, who had just gone out.
Alcohol emboldens cowards. After running away, Wang the hunter felt more and more indignant. How could such a grown man be afraid of a woman? It was a laughing stock.
He had already forgotten about the beating he had taken with Zhang Xiucai during the day; all he could think about was revenge.
There was a quilt on the bed, and in the dark it looked like a person was lying there.
Hunter Wang raised his knife and slashed at her. After all, killing his own wife wasn't illegal, and he would just have to pay Scholar Zhang a few more taels of silver in the end.
Xiong Bufan watched as Wang the hunter slashed wildly with a knife. This man didn't even have eyes; he was hardly human.
Hunter Wang chopped for a long time without hearing any screams. Only then did he come to his senses, use his knife to pull back the shredded quilt, and in the moonlight, he found that there was no one in the room.
Where had the person gone? Only then did Wang the hunter realize his fear. He looked around with his knife but didn't look up.
Xiong Bufan slowly floated to Wang the Hunter's side and whispered like a demon, "Are you looking for me?"
Before Wang the hunter could even raise his knife, Xiong Bufan kicked him, separating his body and head.
The good news is that he didn't feel any pain; the bad news is that he died, and his brain exploded.
Xiong Bufan frowned as he looked at the spilled brain matter; this Wang the Hunter was far too filthy.
Cleaning it up was out of the question, so Xiong Bufan turned his attention to the two female ghosts, who should be able to offer some help.
Wang the hunter has now become a ghost. Looking at his own mangled corpse, he knows he is dead and that the murderer is that woman. Without hesitation, he rushes over.
Xiong Bufan grabbed Wang the hunter by the neck. He was so stupid that he didn't even know to stay away from the murderer.
Hunter Wang: "Who are you? Let me go!"
"I'm your father."
Hunter Wang is now completely desperate. If he had known what kind of woman he was going to marry, he would never have married her.
Xiong Bufan threw Wang the hunter out; her house shouldn't have any ghosts there.
The hanged ghost and the female ghost sitting over there knew that Xiong Bufan could not only see them, but also touch them, so they quickly floated away.
Anyone who can fight ghosts must be at least a Taoist master.
Xiong Bufan blocked the doorway. "Did I say you could leave? Stay!"
The female ghost who was sitting immediately knelt down, "Master, we haven't done anything bad, please spare us."
The hanged ghost stuck out its big tongue and said, "Ahhh, yes."
Xiong Bufan took out two talismans and threw them at the two ghosts, saying, "Clean up the house for me, and dispose of the corpses properly, or I'll refine you into pills."
"Yes Yes Yes"
