"I guess this exquisite heart should be a special inheritance of their Hai family, but it was unknown until Haitians became famous all over the world more than 300 years ago." The old lady continued carefully. said.
"According to what you said, this Hai family specializes in producing magic geniuses, doesn't it seem like it?" I was a little hesitant.
If one had a Linglong Heart and was a magic genius, then the Hai family would probably have become famous in the Feng Shui world.
"There are indeed some problems with this." The old lady said hurriedly, "Maybe... maybe there are differences between the exquisite hearts. Just like that Haitian Shi, it is said that the heart has nine orifices and is extremely sensitive to yin energy, but I am in the village I have been observing for a long time and found no such person, except for a little girl named Haitang who looks a bit like..."
My heart moved when I heard this, "So you have had an idea of her?"
"No, no, I suspect that this little girl is the target of a special trap. How dare I touch her!" The old lady hurriedly denied it.
"Why do you say that?" I asked coldly.
"This..." the old lady hesitated for a moment and said, "This is all my guess. But back then, the little girl's parents tried to take the child away, but the couple drowned in the river not long after. inside."
"How did you know they were taking the children away?" I asked calmly.
The old lady said, "Although the couple has been keeping a secret, I have been keeping an eye on their home and even sent a kid to secretly keep an eye on their home. This cannot escape my eyes."
"So it was you who leaked the secret?" I said calmly.
The old lady was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly, "No, no, no, how could I ask for trouble? This Shimen Village seems peaceful, but in fact it has been secretly monitored. No matter how careful the couple is, they may not be able to reveal their mistakes. Really It’s not me!”
Seeing that I was noncommittal, she hurriedly continued, "Although the couple died, the little girl is still alive and well. I can see that the little girl is different, and I believe that she should also be able to see that. Gotta come out.”
The one she was talking about obviously meant the mysterious man who brought her here.
"In other words, that little girl named Haitang is a bit like Haitian Shi back then?" I asked after pondering for a moment.
"Yes, I...that's what I think." The old lady nodded repeatedly.
I didn't pursue the matter any further, and changed the subject and asked, "Then why do you think the other party wanted to take away those newborn children?"
"Well..." the old lady hesitated for a long time, "I guess it's for research, but the other party wants a stillbirth, so I don't quite understand."
I once again thought of the longevity dolls in Cao Xian Temple. These dolls happened to be children who had died at birth. Unfortunately, I didn’t check at the time to see if these children were born with right hearts.
As for the children in the Liu family's underground ice prison, they are all between several years old and in their teens.
"Actually, the other party not only takes away newborn children, but also quietly takes away older children or adults." At this moment, the old lady said again.
"How did you know?" My heart moved.
"I secretly observed this. Not only living people, but also dead people were also quietly moved away, including Haitang's parents, who were moved away by others." The old lady said.
"Then what's in the burial pit?"
"Someone died in the village, and they were indeed buried in that well. However, except for the coffin bearers, no one knew what the well was like. Even if a few corpses were secretly moved out, it would be a piece of cake." said the wife.
"Pallbearers?"
The old lady hurriedly explained, "The coffin bearers are the ones responsible for carrying the coffin in the village. There are five people in total. One of them is responsible for carrying the coffin and leading the coffin during the funeral. The other four are responsible for carrying the coffin. I guess this The five people are just like me, they were all hired from outside, and they have been passed down from generation to generation in the village."
"So you are a group of people responsible for guarding Shimen Village. Besides the six of you, who else is there?"
I had a hunch before that Shimen Village would be anything but simple, but now I discovered that it was far more complicated than I imagined.
"I can't say for sure." The old lady shook her head. "They and I are in charge of our own affairs, and we are never allowed to have any contact. Just like this time when the other party comes to receive the child, he must take it from me. , no other means are allowed.”
"Then, who do you think is responsible for the accidents happening to the people who came to pick up the children this time?" I asked after thinking for a moment.
The old lady raised her head and glanced at me secretly, then lowered her head in fear, "This... this..."
"You think it's me?" I laughed dumbly.
"Don't dare!" the old lady said hurriedly.
But from the look on her face, she probably already thought it was me.
I didn't explain it either.
The one who attacked and killed those people one after another was the monster with the head of a human and the body of a snake. However, this monster had a silk puppet painted on its face. It was obvious that the master of the Yin Yang makeup was behind it.
It's just that the origin of this person and what his purpose is are a bit puzzling.
"Have you ever seen eyes like this?" I described the huge and weird eye in the Ice Prison.
The old lady thought carefully for a long time, shook her head and said no.
"Is there anything else you want to explain?" I asked her.
When the old lady heard this, she suddenly shivered uncontrollably, "I...I..."
"These ghost dolls are all children from Shimen Village, right?" I glanced at the stuffed dolls that caused a lot of trouble.
"I...I was just panicking around, so...I just kept it...they don't want these..." The old lady was shaking so hard that her tone of voice was broken.
"Okay, since you are cooperating, I will keep my word." I blew off the sawdust from the wood stick after carving the charm, got up and walked over.
"I...I..." The old lady's chest kept rising and falling, and she suddenly laughed miserably, "I...I am relieved, hahaha..."
I turned my palm and slapped the wooden stick into the top of her head.
The old lady's smile suddenly stopped, her life was cut off!
"Come!" I waved.
The ghost doll hanging in the air suddenly began to tremble violently, and then a trace of black air emerged. Like a living creature, it quickly gathered over and scrambled to get in from the top of the old lady's head.
As the traces of black energy disappeared into her body, the dead old lady suddenly moved her eyes strangely.
"Get up!" I pointed my finger.
The old lady immediately stood up straight.
The direct descendant of Lingmen, Lingyu!
Seal the orifice with a spirit-controlling nail to attract the spirit of resentful spirits and ghosts, and you can control it as you wish!
Spirit control is divided into life and death. If the spirit control nail falls on the top of the head, it is death control.
"Go ahead."
Following my instructions, the old lady jumped out and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.
I passed the black dog, raised my leg and lightly kicked it on the forehead. The black dog immediately stopped moving.
Then he turned around and left, closing the door again.
