In the early morning of October 15, 2013, Ma Guizhou, a villager in Pengyang County, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, had just gotten up and was ready to start work.
Suddenly, he received a call from a relative, and the news on that end was like a bolt from the blue:
"All 7 members of your in-laws family were killed."
The in-laws in the mouth of relatives are the Lan Lubu family, the father-in-law of Ma Yongdong, the son of Ma Guizhou.
Soon, the police came to Ma's house to investigate the situation. A policeman asked Ma Guizhou if there were any machetes or anything like that at home.
Ma Guizhou remembered that when his old father was alive, he left a long knife of about one meter, but he searched all over the house and found no trace of the knife. He suddenly remembered that a month ago, his son Ma Yongdong had sharpened the knife in the yard.
At this time, a terrible thought flashed in Ma Guizhou's mind - could it be Ma Yongdong who killed his father-in-law's family?
Honghe Township, Pengyang County, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, is located on the barren slopes of loess, and the people who live here have lived on agriculture for generations.
Ma Yongdong and his wife Lan Xiuying were born on this land.
Ma Yongdong was born in 1989, and Lan Xiuying were elementary school classmates, and the two were very good when they were students, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts.
After graduating from junior high school, Ma Yongdong went to Xinjiang to join the army, and after demobilization, he returned to his hometown and worked as a worker in a coal mine.
In the eyes of ordinary people, he is loyal, honest, down-to-earth and diligent, and a reliable "good man".
In 2010, 21-year-old Ma Yongdong and Lan Xiuying entered the palace of marriage. At that time, Lan Xiuying was studying in a junior college in Xi'an, but for love, she resolutely gave up her studies and returned to the countryside to get married.
This decision made many people sigh when they mentioned it later.
After marriage, the relationship between the young couple was not bad, and they soon gave birth to a lovely son.
Like most coal mining families, Ma Yongdong works in the mine, while Lan Xiuying has no job and takes care of her children and does housework at home.
It's just a pity that this peaceful day didn't last long.
According to Lan Xiuying's neighbor Lan Mingyou, Ma Yongdong didn't know when he became obsessed with playing mahjong, and often quarreled with his wife for this.
At the same time, as the trivial matters in life increase, the conflict between the couple increases. Especially after Ma Yongdong quit his job in the mine, the quarrels between the two began to become more frequent.
Lan Wuying, the village party secretary of Wengou Village, once helped Ma Yongdong and his family mediate several conflicts.
According to him, every time Ma Yongdong and Lan Xiuying quarrel, it was because of some trivial things in life.
Ma Yongdong often thinks Lan Xiuying spends money lavishly.
Once, Lan Xiuying gave a favor to a relative's family and gave about 100 yuan, Ma Yongdong felt that his wife spent too much money, so he directly beat Lan Xiuying.
This is the couple's first hands-on experience.
There is a first time, a second time, and a third time.
On August 19, 2013, Ma Yongdong and Lan Xiuying had a dispute over money, and the more the two quarreled, the more fierce they became, and Ma Yongdong beat people again.
This time, Lan Xiuying's father, Lan Youbu, called the police in a fit of rage, and then took his daughter to her mother's house.
Three or four days later, Ma Yongdong called a few elders, brought some gifts, and took his wife back.
I thought that this was the end of the matter, but similar scenes played out one after another in the next two months.
The conflict between husband and wife also affected the relationship between Ma Yongdong and his father-in-law's family.
Several times, in order to stand up for his daughter, Lan Youbu confronted Ma Yongdong with a shovel, and even alarmed the police at the police station.
Lan Xiuying, who has been beaten repeatedly, has the idea of divorce, an idea that angers Ma Yongdong. He viciously warned his wife that if she dared to mention the divorce again, her whole family would not survive.
Lan Xiuying called ** many times to cry to her relatives, saying that she was "death threatened" by her husband. At that time, relatives advised her not to swallow her anger and divorce as soon as possible.
It's just that no one thought at the time that this "death threat" threat would become a reality.
On October 14, an inadvertent little thing once again sparked a family war.
That day, Ma Yongdong's son, who was less than two years old, suddenly cried, and Ma Yongdong asked his wife to breastfeed.
Lan Xiuying flushed the milk with a bottle, but the child was naughty and opened the cap, and the milk was scattered all over the ground.
Ma Yongdong, who was in a depressed mood, began to scold Lan Xiuying, but his wife shot back, and the angry Ma Yongdong slapped Lan Xiuying.
Lan Xiuying called 110 to call the police again, and the police station came forward to mediate and sent Lan Xiuying back to Lan Youbu's house.
*Happened on this night.
That night, Ma Yongdong rode a two-wheeled motorcycle to his father-in-law's house, killed the family, and carried out a frenzied killing act.
Afterwards, he threw away his bloodstained leather jacket in a nearby village and boarded a shuttle bus to Yinchuan.
After coming to Yinchuan, Ma Yongdong bought a new set of clothes, and then fled to Wuzhong City to work.
At around 7 o'clock in the morning on October 15, Ji Xiulian, a next-door neighbor of Lanyoubu, came to Lan's house to borrow something.
When she walked into the courtyard of the Lan family, she noticed that something was wrong. Usually the old couple get up early, but that day the yard was quiet, and there was no sound at all.
Ji Xiulian pushed open the door of the house and looked inside, and everything in front of her suddenly frightened her: she saw Lan Youbu's two sons and granddaughter lying on the ground, and the ground was full of blood.
Ji Xiulian ran out screaming and called out to the neighbors to call the police.
Soon, the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Pengyang County Public Security Bureau arrived at the scene.
According to the on-site investigation, Lan Youbu and his wife, parents, daughter, and two granddaughters were all killed, of which the daughter Lan Xiuying was 6 months pregnant, and the two granddaughters were born to Lan Youbu's son Lan Huijun, who was only 3 and a half years old and 1 year and 9 months old respectively.
Lan Youbu's son-in-law, Lan Xiuying's husband Ma Yongdong, was soon listed as the number one suspect.
According to the police in charge, the murder method was extremely cruel, each deceased was cut throat, and two young children were stabbed multiple times, and the death was extremely tragic.
This extermination caused a sensation in the small county.
Whether it is the police at the police station, the village cadres, or Ma Yongdong's neighbors, they all expressed their disbelief that an ordinary family dispute would develop to the level of murder.
In order to arrest Ma Yongdong as soon as possible, the public security organs offered a reward of 100,000 yuan.
On the evening of October 18, Ma Yongdong was discovered and reported by the masses and was arrested in Wuzhong City, Ningxia. Afterwards, Ningxia** rewarded citizens who provided clues with 100,000 yuan.
After interrogation, Ma Yongdong confessed the facts of the crime of creating the destruction of the door, and the "10.14" extraordinarily large homicide case was successfully solved.
After the trial, Ma Yongdong quibbled in court and said that he was forced to kill people because he was forced to do so.
He said that he had gone to Lan's house to pick up his wife that night, and after entering the door, he knelt down to his father-in-law to admit his mistake, but Lan Youbu chased him with scissors, so he had no choice but to take a knife to defend himself.
However, judging from the facts of the case, it is obvious that his sophistry does not stand up.
A series of evidence shows that Ma Yongdong came prepared and deliberately killed people, and his ** to several defenseless children and the elderly shows that this person's methods are cruel and have long exceeded the bottom line of normal people.
Seeing that it was useless to quibble, Ma Yongdong finally pleaded guilty to the law.
He said:"I killed someone, and I can't make up for it, and if possible, I'm willing to donate any of my own organs to those who need it. ”
In the end, Ma Yongdong was sentenced and executed.
This sensational Ningxia annihilation ** came to an end.
