After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 341 Forced to Jump off a Cliff

While no one was paying attention to her, Xu Yingying summoned the wandering ghosts around the ruined temple to untie her. Then she took out the sleeping pills hidden in her arms and quietly knocked out everyone in the ruined temple. Then she stretched her muscles, walked out of the ruined temple, randomly selected a horse from the surroundings, rode it and rode away in the direction she came from.

Not long after Xu Yingying escaped, Su Mei woke up.

Upon learning that Xu Yingying had escaped, Su Mei flew into a rage, pointing at her subordinates' noses and angrily cursing, "Why do we keep you bunch of losers? You are a bunch of idiots, you can't even take care of a woman."

"What are you still standing there for? Go chase him!"

After saying that, Su Mei took her men on horseback to chase Xu Yingying.

Although Xu Yingying had been running for a while, due to her poor horsemanship and poor sense of direction, she went around in circles and accidentally ran into a forest.

After finally getting out, he was caught up by Su Mei and his companions on horseback who were excellent horsemen in less than a moment.

Seeing Xu Yingying, Su Mei couldn't help but reveal a malicious smile, "Oh, I thought your horse riding skills were superb, and you should have disappeared after such a long time. The result really disappointed me!"

As she spoke, Su Mei approached Xu Yingying step by step with ill intentions.

Xu Yingying stepped back subconsciously, but when she turned back, she found that she had arrived at a cliff without knowing when.

Looking down, there was only the sound of rushing water. Xu Yingying thought that if she fell from such a great height, she would be crippled at least if not dead.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder.

At this time, Su Mei, who was standing by, also noticed Xu Yingying's expression. She looked at Xu Yingying with a smug look on her face and said, "Run! Why don't you run?"

"I advise you to surrender and come back with me. Don't struggle anymore. There is a bottomless abyss below. If you fall in, you will basically die."

After saying that, Su Mei and her men approached Xu Yingying step by step.

At this moment, the horse that Xu Yingying was riding was suddenly frightened for some unknown reason, lost control, and rushed quickly towards the cliff.

When it was almost at the edge of the cliff, the horse suddenly braked, and Xu Yingying, who was sitting on the horse, was thrown off the horse's back due to inertia and fell directly to the edge of the cliff.

"what--"

Xu Yingying's terrified screams reached the ears of everyone present.

This sudden scene stunned everyone, even Su Mei stood there in a daze for a long time.

Su Mei reluctantly walked to the edge of the cliff and waited for a while. After confirming that Xu Yingying really fell down, she said very unwillingly, "Let's go! She fell down. This time she probably won't be so lucky. She's probably going to see the King of Hell."

Originally, Su Mei wanted to severely punish and torture Xu Yingying to avenge her previous disfigurement, but she didn't expect that Xu Yingying would die so soon and even had no place to be buried. Thinking of this, Su Mei breathed a sigh of relief and just vented her anger.

At this time, after Xu Yingying fell off the cliff, she struggled in the rushing river like a drowning cat.

But her thin body was no match for the rapids, and as soon as Xu Yingying emerged from the water, she was washed away by the huge waves.

night.

On the beach.

Xu Yingying, who was soaked all over, fell to the ground in a miserable state.

The next day, early morning.

A fisherman and his family came to the river to collect their fishing nets as per custom.

I saw a man just walked to the riverside, and he pointed at Xu Yingying on the riverbank with his eyes wide open in surprise as if he had discovered something, and said, "Dad, Mom, there is a person lying on the riverbank."

The man's name was Wang Ruian. He was from the nearby Liuhua Village. His family usually made a living by farming, and he and his father would catch some fish to supplement the family income.

Today was the day for the family to collect the fishing nets as usual, but they didn't expect that as soon as they reached the river, they found Xu Yingying lying on the ground.

"Ah? I see this girl is covered in water. Could she have committed suicide out of depression?" Wang Ruian's mother Li Cuihua cautiously looked at Xu Yingying who was lying on the ground and guessed.

"Uh... that shouldn't be the case, right? But why is she not moving at all? Could she be... dead?" Wang Ruian's father Wang Dazhu asked tentatively.

"That shouldn't be the case!" Wang Ruian said as he looked at Xu Yingying, who was lying on the river bank with a pale face.

After saying that, Wang Ruian walked cautiously to Xu Yingying's side, and then gently probed under Xu Yingying's nose with his hand.

"She's breathing, she's still alive!" Wang Ruian shouted excitedly.

After hearing this, Li Cuihua and Wang Dazhu beside her were also very happy.

"Then let's take him home first! After all, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda." Li Cuihua looked at her husband and son and said.

"Okay." Both teachers agreed with Li Cuihua's point of view.

In this way, Xu Yingying was taken back home by Li Cuihua.

Li Cuihua wiped Xu Yingying's body with a dry towel and changed her into dry clothes. After doing all this, Li Cuihua felt at ease to follow Wang Ruian and Wang Dazhu to do farm work in the fields.

night.

When the family of three came back from farm work, Xu Yingying was already awake.

Wang Ruian was extremely excited when he saw Xu Yingying wake up. He trotted over to her and asked, "Girl, are you awake?"

Hearing this, Xu Yingying looked at him in confusion and nodded, "Yes, where is this?"

"Oh, this is my home. We were going to the river to collect fish this morning, and we found you fainted by the river. Then the three of us brought you back. The clothes you are wearing were changed by my mother, so don't worry!"

Wang Ruian saw Xu Yingying looking down at her clothes and hurriedly explained.

"Girl, where do you live? What's your name? And why did you faint by the river? Are you worried about something?" Wang Ruian looked at Xu Yingying cautiously and spoke.

Xu Yingying was slightly stunned when she heard this, and looked at Wang Ruian with a puzzled look on her face and asked, "What? I jumped into the river?"

Wang Ruian nodded, and then as if he remembered something, he asked Xu Yingying tentatively, "Girl, you won't... lose your memory, right?"

Xu Yingying scratched her head awkwardly when she heard this, then nodded and admitted, "I guess so. I don't remember my name or where I'm from, or even where my home is."

When these words were spoken, Wang Ruian, Wang Dazhu and Li Cuihua were all very shocked. The three of them looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Why don't we let her stay at our house first? She's a girl, but she's lying by the river soaking wet. I guess she was upset before, so she had no other choice but to jump down. Who would treat their daughter like this?"

Li Cuihua looked at Xu Yingying with a distressed look on her face.

As soon as these words were spoken, a trace of pity flashed in Wang Ruian's eyes. In addition, Xu Yingying was pretty, so Wang Ruian immediately agreed with what his mother said without hesitation.

"Okay, then let her stay here!"

Wang Dazhu, who was standing by, saw that his son and daughter-in-law agreed, so he naturally had no objection and agreed immediately, "Okay! Then let her live in our house!"
