When pulled out, Wang Moufang was covered with soil, her legs were lame, and her thin body crawled on the ground. The policeman on the side coaxed her with a strong northwest accent. "Close your eyes, don't close your eyes." Then she heard her vague answer.

　　Three days before the incident (May 2), Ma Moukuan pulled 79-year-old mother Wang Moufang in a flatbed and buried her in an abandoned tomb on a hillside that was inaccessible. After the incident, the police controlled Ma Moukuan with intentional murder.

　　Wang Moufang, who was lying in a hospital bed, also worried that his eldest son would be sentenced to be too heavy for being buried alive.

Lies about sending 79-year-old mother to relatives

　　The first person to call the police was Ma Moukuan's wife Zhang Moumei.

　　At about 11 pm on May 3, Zhang Moumei went to the Xinzhuang Police Station in Jingbian County, Shaanxi Province to report to the police that his mother-in-law Wang Moufang was pulled away from her home by her husband in a rickshaw the night before.

　　Waiting for more than 2 o'clock in the morning on the 3rd, only Ma Moukuan pushed the car and returned to his home near Tuanjie Farmer's Market in Hedong. Ma Moukuan told his wife that he sent the old man to the new station in Jingbian County, and then hired a van to his relatives in Qingcheng County, Gansu Province.

　　The family then set off to find the station, but there was no gain. During the family's search, 58-year-old Ma Moukuan left his family's sight and never returned.

　　On the morning of May 5, when Ma Moukuan was summoned to the police station, he still insisted that his mother had been sent to relatives by himself. But his words flashed, his expression panicked, and he was obviously inconsistent when answering questions. Finally, Ma Moukuan explained to the police that when he dragged his mother to the ten thousand mu forest, he saw no one around and found an abandoned grave pit to bury his mother.

　　The old man was buried in a sparse wood.

　　In the video released by the police, several policemen were digging the soil with a shovel and shouting the old man's name beside the raised mound. A slight cry for help can be heard.

　　The buried soil has not been crushed, there is a certain space in the tomb. After cleaning up the dirt around the tomb, the police found the old man curled up in the tomb.

　　The space was narrow, and the police cooperated to pull out the old man with his face full of soil, and carried it to the open space beside him, and told her to "close your eyes, don't open them first." First covered the old man with a blanket, then used a stretcher to carry her to the car for medical treatment.

　　The place where the elderly are buried is located higher in the forest area. The soil slopes in the forest area are mostly undulating, and there are many tombs left by the tomb relocation nearby. Local residents said that if they do not know where to bury people, it is difficult to determine the specific location. After the incident, he had seen it near the tomb. "It takes one hour to bury one person (fill)."

The old man's legs and feet are inconvenient to go to the ground for a long time

　　The news of Ma Moukuan's "buying his mother alive" was spread locally.

　　Many people believe that Ma Moukuan buried his mother in a desolate place, "I really wanted the old lady's life."

　　Ma Moukuan is a "weird" in the eyes of his neighbors. He and his wife moved to Wafang Village more than ten years ago and have three daughters and one son. The family conditions of his family are not very good, "there is nothing valuable in the family." Ma Moukuan has no culture, usually doing odd jobs in the county to make money, and returning home to work in his free time. Over the years, he did not interact much with the neighbors nearby, and even if the neighbors greeted him actively, he would ignore it.

　　Ma Moukuan is the eldest son of Wang Moufang and his first husband. Later, Wang Moufang remarried, and his family registration moved to Gansu with his second husband. According to Jingbian police, in recent years Wang Moufang returned to Jingbian to live for a long time, and first lived with his single son. At the beginning of 2019, the second son was unable to take care of him because of illness and was transferred to the elder son Ma Moukuan.

　　At the end of 2019, after the elderly accidentally fell down, they went to the hospital for examination and returned home. Wang Moufang ’s nephew remembers that the wounds were healed, but the roots of the disease fell, and he could hardly walk down the ground. Most of the time he lay in bed. Before the Lunar New Year, he also visited the old man in Ma Moukuan's house. At that time, the family did not show anything strange.

　　Neighbors said that after the old man had inconvenience, he hardly ever went out. Daughter-in-law Zhang Moumei treats people warmly and usually takes care of the elderly at home alone. Compared with the elderly son, the daughter-in-law Zhang Moumei seems to take care of the elderly more often. "I often see her busy and busy."

　　The staff of the village committee in Wafang Village have never heard of any conflict between Ma Moukuan and his mother. However, some staff members recalled that before the incident, he had seen Mamou violently cursing people, "the spirit may really be a problem."

　　Ma Moukuan's daughter also said that his father's mental state is abnormal and he is suspected of suffering from mental illness and is already undergoing a mental assessment.

　　Ma Moukuan has been criminally detained after the incident due to suspected intentional murder. Police sources said that he did not know about Ma ’s mental appraisal.

　"She doesn't want her son to be sentenced too much"

　　In the center of whirlpool of public opinion, family members feel that all this "can't believe it".

　　According to the local police, Ma Moukuan explained that because his mother had inconvenient legs and feet, she was unable to take care of her own urine, and her life required someone to take care.

　　In order to put this idea into action, he specifically found an abandoned tomb in a thousand acres of forest farm, and arranged the speech after burying his mother alive.

　　But because of this, he accidentally disclosed his thoughts to his wife. After his wife called the police, Ma Moukuan felt something was wrong, so she ran away from home.

　　Police sources said that after the case, Ma Moukuan did not show obvious regret and panic. Until he was forced to ask where the old man was buried alive, he showed some "regrets and worries."

　　The old man was taken to the hospital after being rescued and was very weak. "The old man's desire to survive is still very strong," the staff of the office of Jingbian County Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital said that because of the lack of oxygen, the old man was unconscious and slightly conscious. After the treatment, the vital signs were relatively stable, and they were able to communicate normally. On May 6, they also cooperated with the police to ask questions.

　　After two days of treatment, the situation has greatly improved. On the morning of May 7, the old man received treatment and recovery training at the county traditional Chinese medicine hospital. The old man's young son and elder daughter-in-law Zhang Moumei were accompanied by the hospital.

　　The family believes that Ma's behavior "dehumanizes and deserves the punishment due", but Wang Moufang's nephew said that the old man lying in the hospital bed has always been worried that his son will be sentenced.

　　"She doesn't want her son to be sentenced too heavily."
