In our early years, people in our area still attached great importance to and relied on the ways of gods and ghosts. The emphasis was based on the fear of unknown things, and the dependence was because in addition to the more "regular" business of Mr. Yin Yang, The special professions of divine men and goddesses also began to become well known.
Compared with Mr. Yin and Yang, the divine man and the goddess are more down-to-earth. Many times, they become the objects of people's confiding and a "spiritual mentor" in a sense. And not all the gods and goddesses have the same ability as Mr. Yin Yang, who can read Feng Shui and perform magic tricks to ward off evil spirits. Most of them are selling sheep's heads and selling dog meat, and any real magic tricks are enough to deceive the simple people at the bottom.
Sometimes people pray to gods and worship Buddha, which is nothing more than an alternative spiritual sustenance.
People like Hu Sanyi, who firmly grasped the simplicity, purity, and even ignorance contained in this spiritual sustenance, became so popular that they actually "carried forward" this line of work.
Stop gossiping.
Hu Sanyi slowly arrived amid people's expectations and crowds. He still looked the same as he did more than ten years ago: a light blue square scarf was wrapped around his head, which just covered the broken eye bone on his left side. Mei, he is wearing a Mao suit that was popular during the Republic of China. Not to mention, he has been wearing this suit since he was a child, and it still doesn't have that old and worn-out feeling.
Hu Daxian's face was stern, and his eyes scanned the crowd back and forth, seeming to be silently declaring his status. When he saw me, I could clearly feel that his gaze paused, but it was only for a brief moment.
I saw Hu Sanyi stopping next to my grandfather and the others, shaking his sleeves abruptly, and then shaking his head deliberately.
I covered my mouth and asked the ghost girl in a low voice why the ghost was screaming just now and if she had discovered anything. She was very happy and said directly that she discovered that my grandfather and the others were not only poisoned by corpse poison, but also obviously poisoned by others. poison.
Corpse poison and poison.
"How are you sure they were poisoned? Was it the person named Hu who just did it?"
"No, it wasn't him. I kept staring at him. This man didn't do anything out of the ordinary. It's just that he flicked his sleeves just now, which made me discover that your grandfather and the others had a strange fragrance, but this fragrance was The fishy smell of corpse poison covers it up, making it difficult to detect if you don't smell carefully."
I curled my lips and continued to communicate with her: "So I still have to thank him?"
"Hmm... wait, judging by his behavior, I'm afraid he already knew that these people were poisoned, but I can't feel that unique fragrance from him... Huh?"
I thought she had discovered something again, and when I was about to ask her, I realized that Hu Sanyi seemed to be preparing to take action, so I retracted my thoughts and nervously watched his next move.
"Please give way, everyone. These people have been deeply affected by evil spirits. I must start a forum to remove the evil spirits, otherwise they will not survive for an hour!"
The crowd was in an uproar and began to beg Hu Daxian to do something to save people, but the latter looked obviously embarrassed.
"It's not that I won't save them. The six of them are deeply evil. It takes a lot of energy to save just one of them, let alone save them all together."
I frowned as I listened and quietly asked the ghost girl if there was anything I could do.
"It's not that there is no way. I have found the person who poisoned her. I just need to find a way to force her to submit. I'll detoxify them first. I'll teach you how to detoxify them later."
I quickly asked her who was the person who poisoned her behind her back, but the person the ghost girl mentioned surprised me. Who was that person? Party Secretary Wang’s wife—Qin Cuicui!
Judging from the ghost girl's description of the man's position and clothing, only Qin Cuicui matched the description. However, as a middle-aged woman who had just lost a man, she was unlikely to do such a thing. People.
Suddenly, the buddy thought of an extremely scary possibility. Could the death of Party Secretary Wang be related to Qin Cuicui?
The more unclear the situation is, the more clues will come into our view.
Ever since I started to focus on Qin Cuicui, a woman wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety, I unexpectedly found that she and Hu Sanyi had locked eyes several times! This made my friends more suspicious of her, and Hu Sanyi was even included in my list of suspicions.
"You said she was the one who administered the poison. Do you have any evidence?"
After all, this is just a one-sided statement from the ghost girl. If there is no basis, even if I am willing to believe her, who will believe me?
"The unique medicinal smell on that woman's body is very strong. It's exactly the same as the medicinal smell on your grandfather's body, but she is not poisoned. Why do you think this is?"
I know she is guiding me to think, but is it possible that she is being used by others? In my impression, Qin Cuicui is a kind woman. It is really difficult to associate her with a vicious person.
"There is a distance between people's hearts. Even if they are the people you grew up with, can you guarantee that you will completely understand them?"
I shook my head, sorted out my thoughts, and recalled the several times Qin Cuicui and Hu Sanyi looked at each other in the air. Then I looked at my grandfather who fell on the ground, and I made up my mind.
It’s her or not, you’ll know after trying it.
So, before Hu Sanyi was about to use his good money-making methods, the buddy cleared his throat, separated from the crowd and went straight to Hu Daxian.
Everyone's focus was originally on him, but no one paid attention to my actions.
"Hu... Great Immortal, you can't just die without saving me!" I howled and held his arm.
"What are you doing! You..."
"Listen to me, when I was studying in the city, I once saw this kind of case in the city hospital. The doctor at the time said that it was a rare poison. Anyone who had been in contact with a poisoned person or contained something People who take this kind of poison will have symptoms like my grandfather and others. The doctors at that time were helpless and said they wanted the family to prepare for the funeral as soon as possible, but you are Hu Daxian! You must have something to do, right? "
As I spoke, I tried my best to exaggerate the atmosphere in which even the doctors at the city hospital were powerless and the poisoned people were hopeless.
Apart from anything else, in a small place like ours, we have great respect for the highly skilled doctors in the urban area. In fact, no matter which era or place we are in, doctors and teachers are groups with a high social status.
A disease that even doctors can't do anything about is a direct death sentence.
"Nonsense! Where did the poison come from! They are obviously contaminated with evil spirits. Stop making trouble!"
Hu Sanyi's tone was obviously a little excited and panicked. I don't know if he had anything to do with this incident, but looking at it now, he must know something.
"It's true! I heard an old man in the same ward as the patient say that after the man was pushed into the ward, the doctor rescued him immediately, but they only stopped him from vomiting foam. Half an hour later, the doctor Blisters broke out all over the person's body, and his face was covered with pus from the swollen and ruptured blisters..."
At this point, I knew this was a lie I had made up, but I still couldn't help scratching my face.
"What happened to that man? Is he afraid he can't be saved?"
An old man asked, I shook my head, pestered Hu Daxian again, and wiped his body with snot and tears.
Maybe he was annoyed by me, but he didn't get rid of me even though he dumped me several times. Just kidding, at least we have been trained!
But the next second, my brother suffered a big loss. Seeing that he couldn't get rid of me, the grandson raised his foot and kicked me hard in the kidney. How could he hit me? He dodged a little sideways, but his hand relaxed, and then he was thrown away.
There happened to be a few pebbles where my friend landed, and my back hit them. It hurt so much that I grimaced.
At this moment, there was an exclamation from the crowd, "Oh no! Sister Qin has fainted!"
My mind moved, and I guessed that the repeated and scary words before had an effect. It seemed that this person named Qin had something wrong in his mind!
Six people were already unconscious, and with Party Secretary Wang's wife also unconscious, the atmosphere suddenly became agitated and chaotic, with everyone talking about poisoning and being possessed by evil spirits.
A few men were holding Qin Cuicui away and wanted to go back. I thought to myself, she can't leave now! In a hurry, I could only shout:
"Wait!"
I stood up to catch up, but I staggered from the pain of the bruise just now. My feet were unsteady, and I stumbled into the men holding Qin Cuicui.
It was good this time. Together with a big brother and Qin Cuicui, I rolled down the slope...
In the meantime, his palm accidentally hit Qin Cuicui's face. After feeling a moment of coolness in his palm, he quickly turned sideways and hit the ridge on the right, stopping.
Several other eldest brothers behind him rushed down and grabbed Qin Cuicui and another person. Except for a few minor scratches, no one was seriously injured.
"I'm talking about young general, you are such a big boy, why do you do things in a hurry? Everyone knows that you are worried about Lao Bian, but you are also a grown man, so you need to learn to be calmer."
I nodded sheepishly, "Uncle Liu, I understand, I didn't mean it."
"Well, since the doctors have said that we can't survive, we can only rely on Hu Daxian to save our lives!"
I sighed secretly when I heard Uncle Liu's tone of helplessness wrapped in a little despair, but with a hint of hope.
"Hehe, I went out just now and found out a lot of information with the help of that woman's spiritual orifice. Then, after a little manipulation, the fun will continue again!"
It turned out that the ghost girl had just taken advantage of me while I was rolling down the slope to do something interesting. I asked her suspiciously if she was the one who caused the accident when I fell down the slope just now. This girl actually admitted it openly. !
It is really difficult to raise a woman and a villain.
"What should my grandpa and the others do? It's been so long, and I'm worried about the corpse poison on them..."
"Don't worry, the poison in them is not deep. As for the corpse poison, as long as the problem of them being poisoned is solved first, there will be a way to remove it."
My brother was doubtful and looked back, only to see Hu Sanyi looking at me with a sinister look. I thought to myself, what are you looking at? We are all serious handsome guys and I don’t want to mess with you. The Brokeback Mountain thing.
Just as we were planning, we suddenly heard an exclamation from the group holding Qin Cuicui, and then several people dispersed, allowing us to see the situation clearly.
Qin Cuicui was lying on the ground, twitching visibly, wondering what happened.
"Mom, is this Xiao Cui sick or something? She suddenly started twitching, ah! She also started foaming at the mouth!"
Someone shouted something, and when we looked over again, we saw conspicuous white foam flowing from the corner of her mouth. The symptoms looked very similar to those of grandpa and others.
Is this the good show that the ghost girl said?
Just as we were about to gather together to take a look at Qin Cuicui's condition, she suddenly woke up, sat up and looked at everyone blankly.
"What's wrong?" As soon as she spoke, she realized that there was something in her mouth. She hurriedly spit it out, as if she had seen something extremely scary, and screamed, "The last name is Damn it! How dare you lie to me!"
As he spoke, he ignored the doubtful and fearful looks of the people around him, stumbled through the crowd, and ran towards Hu Sanyi, who looked a little flustered.
What we in the countryside depend on for survival is land, and our ancestors have relied on it for food for generations, so crop work is the most basic skill. Besides crops, the most famous and profitable thing in Shanling Town is tea.
Men and women have been exposed to it since childhood. Growing tea, picking tea, making tea, and tasting tea are all things that everyone is accustomed to and engraved in their bones.
It stands to reason that people who work often have a lot of strength, but a master like Hu Sanyi, who claims to be a "great immortal" and is no longer grounded, can still compete in strength with Qin Cuicui, who works in the fields all year round. ?
So, Qin Cuicui basically pushed Hu Sanyi to the ground without much effort. She was not afraid of being watched and didn't even pay attention to the other people beside the cemetery. I think she might have temporarily forgotten what was happening over there. The incense candle on the grave is still burning.
She grabbed Hu Sanyi's collar fiercely, seeming to question, but also seeming to curse: "You are so heartless, you want to kill me too, right? Why am I also poisoned? Tell me, talk!"
She roared, but these words left everyone confused. However, seeing her "torture" Hu Sanyi while spitting out sweet fragrance, everyone must have some doubts in their hearts.
She spat out the foam in her mouth vigorously, her expression becoming more and more crazy. Although I was not close, I was affected by her state and tensed my nerves.
"Bullshit! You want to throw me away like garbage after you eat it. Give me the antidote! Otherwise, I will let you die together!"
While she was talking, she actually stretched out her hands to pinch Hu Sanyi, who was tightly pressed under her. At this time, the big guy also realized that something was wrong and rushed to pull Qin Cuicui away.
"Ahem, cough, crazy bitch! It's really...crazy, ahem, crazy bitch!"
"Ah, let me go! Let me go, Hu Sanyi wants to kill me! Let him give me the antidote!"
The two of them talked in the distance, but I became even more worried about the situation of Grandpa and the others. After all, almost two hours had passed since Brother Shuanzi reported the news, but the ghost girl's calmness was equivalent to giving me a signal to calm down.
Seeing that she was being pulled tightly, Qin Cuicui cried loudly: "Wow! He was the one who killed Youfu! He also asked me to poison Lao Bian and the others! He wants to kill me now, and only he can find the solution. Medicine, only he can save Lao Bian and the others!"
Hu Sanyi was furious, pointed at her and yelled: "Fart! You crazy bitch is messing around and framed! She is also infected with evil spirits, and the onset of the attack is very fast. Now she is unconscious. Everyone must pay attention to control it." Her! Don't let her go crazy and hurt anyone!"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. On one side was the "highly respected" Hu Daxian, and on the other side was the "excellent voice and emotion" Qin Cuicui. Judging from the situation, I think everyone has basically begun to believe that Hu Daxian said that Qin Cuicui was possessed by evil spirits.
