Unexpectedly, Mrs. Liu and Yang Hongfei had a friendship with grandpa, but why did old man Yang have such a big grudge against grandpa?
The three of them seem reluctant to mention the past. There is definitely some unknown secret hidden in it, and of course it may also be mixed with their painful memories.
"It's almost dawn. You guys can take a rest later and go back after breakfast. This is not the place you should stay. Ayu, I'm tired and I'm going to bed first. You can get some food for them later. There’s no need to call me... Also, your grandma Luo is not in good health. Remember to keep her meals lighter." After Yang Hongfei finished speaking to the three of us, he turned to give instructions to his granddaughter, and then turned around to himself Go away.
There are still many unanswered questions in my mind, but considering that the two elderly people need a good rest and I am also tired, it is not good to continue to delve deeper. Anyway, the people of the Sancai Association have been forced to retreat at this time, so it is safe for the time being. , there is no rush to ask things at this moment.
"Brother, we don't have a guest room at home, so I have to let my sister rest in the main room. Grandma Luo, if it's not convenient for you to go back, just stay with Grandma Liu. You can sleep in my bed. The air in this cellar is not circulated, so you can't stay there." It’s been too long, let’s get out quickly.” Yang Hongyu seemed a little ashamed of the poor care he and his grandfather had taken, and his small stature seemed a little awkward in the eyes of us guests.
Mrs. Liu really needed to rest. Although the hidden silver needle weapon surnamed Tao did not penetrate her body, it still pricked her flesh. Fortunately, she still had her back hand and released the yellow leather, which allowed us to escape. Otherwise, I will definitely have to explain it here tonight.
I nodded gratefully to Yang Hongyu. Everyone needs to rest now. There is no need to say anything, let alone dislike it. Tai Qing supported me with sore hands and feet, Tang Keyun supported Mrs. Liu, and the others were led by Yang Hongyu. Next, everyone went to rest.
I was so sleepy that I didn't care about anything as soon as my eyelids dropped. If Tai Qingsheng hadn't forced me to get up and drag me to eat, I don't know how long I would have slept. Of course, people like Mrs. Liu and the others, who have lived in the countryside all their lives and have good living habits, cannot sleep. No matter how late they sleep, it will not delay getting up early the next day. When I woke up, Grandma Luo had already left first.
Yang Hongfei was smoking a pipe in the yard, and Mrs. Liu, who was sitting opposite him, looked solemn. The two of them seemed to be talking about something serious.
I tried calling the ghost girl several times, but still didn't get any answer. When I was frustrated, I saw a little head poked out of the door, "Brother, are you calling me?" It turned out to be Yang Hongyu.
This girl was busy running for her life with us yesterday. She was frightened a lot. She gave up her bed for others to rest and had to get up early to prepare meals. It was also difficult for her.
I nodded gratefully and invited her in. Unexpectedly, Tai Qing and his partner followed her in. The sun shone on them, which made me feel comfortable.
"Xiao Yu, what are your grandfather and the others talking about?" I said while trying to move my shoulders and various body joints. Last night, Tai Qing and I slept next to each other against the pillars, and gave up the mat to Xiao Yu and Tang Keyun. Two girls. That kid is a martial arts practitioner and is in good health. However, he worked hard last night and was exhausted. Although he managed to rest for a while, he didn't feel much better. He still feels a little dizzy now.
"Oh, brother, are you feeling better? Grandpa and the others are saying something I don't understand. What the hell are you talking about? I'm not paying attention, so I'm just playing with Baicai outside! Baicai! Come on, lick it. "Uh-huh..." After the little girl said this, she called out to her dog. Then I remembered her ferocious cabbage dog. Hiss, I don't know where this dog went last night. What happened at home was so bad. It was such a big deal that he didn't even scream.
"It's okay, I just need to rest more." As I said that, I reached out to touch the dog, but the latter lowered his ears and shrank back, looking scared.
"Look, Chaowei, you scared someone's puppy." Tang Keyun shook his head, as if he was scolding his brother for his atrocities.
"I said you would be kind. Have you forgotten that it came up to bite you earlier? If Xiaomi and we hadn't fought it off at the risk of contracting rabies, the first one it would have bitten would have been you, Miss Tang!" .
"You! Humph! That's because this little puppy sees you as a thief and has ill intentions toward us. Xiaomi and our upright masters have been implicated by you."
She was speechless by my rebuke, and she actually started to choke. What a scumbag, bah! How could someone with so much talent get involved with thieves? !
As the saying goes, a good man never fights with a woman, and I am too lazy to continue to struggle with these small issues with her. Before coming to the village, I had only eaten a bowl of rice noodles, and after fighting hard and exhausting my energy, I was now so hungry that my chest pressed against my back. Fortunately, we are not the thin-skinned people, so we immediately asked Xiaoyu if she had anything to eat to fill her stomach first. The little girl said yes with a smile, and then she happily drank the yellow dog cabbage and jumped up and down. After leaving the main room, "Grandpa, Grandma Liu, brother is hungry, let's eat first!"
The ghost girl didn't make any movement, so I felt unsure. Moreover, Huangfeng Village seemed to be more dangerous than Dengxing Village, so it was better to leave as soon as possible. I don't need to worry about Mrs. Liu being protected by people like Yang Hongfei, not to mention that she has powerful spells such as the ability to summon Huang Pizi. On the contrary, we are not familiar with the place where we are born, and it is difficult to protect ourselves when encountering danger.
After thinking about it for a while, I told Tai Qing and Tang Keyun in private about my thoughts. They came with me, and seeing that I already had thoughts of leaving, they naturally didn't say anything. But considering that my physical condition is not optimistic, I plan to take another day off to allow me to recover well before leaving tomorrow. Tang Keyun also made a pretentious comment, saying that it was rare for her to come to our hometown once. Since she was leaving, she should go back to her grandparents to report that she was safe, and then go somewhere to have fun together.
After the decision was made, we helped Xiao Yu wash the dishes. After she and Mrs. Liu repeatedly persuaded us to cultivate for a few more days and I apologized to the yellow dog and cabbage, the three of us decided to go back to Dengxing Village tomorrow. , after all, it is a place of right and wrong, and it is not advisable to stay too long.
Yang Hongfei didn't express any opinion on this, but asked Yang Hongyu to remember to let the sheep go out and let them go.
I know very little about my grandfather, and my mother rarely mentions him in front of me. I heard many of his deeds from Lao Huang...
Old Mrs. Liu is old and injured, and needs more rest than me. And since Yang Hongfei and I don't deal with each other, I naturally don't want to ask him about things.
The sky was clear and clear in the afternoon, and Tai Qing, his partner, and Xiao Yu went to herd sheep. I was the only one who was arranged to recuperate here. When I was bored alone, someone suddenly knocked on the door of Old Man Yang's house.
Bang bang bang, the voice seemed a little urgent, and then I heard the shouting, "Old bandit! Old bandit!! Come with me, something happened in the village again!"
When I heard the sound, I looked in the direction of Yang Hongfei who opened the door. The person who came was a farmer of many years old. I saw that he came in a hurry, but he did not put down the hoe with traces of soil on his shoulder.
"Old bandit! Something happened to Liu Enbao's family. Hurry up..." I wanted to hear what happened, but I found that old man Yang raised his hand to interrupt the farmer's words, and then turned back intentionally. Glancing in my direction.
"Let's talk about anything on the way. Let's go." Yang Hongfei pulled the man and explained to Mrs. Liu who had gone out to take a look before leaving the house. He went out to do some errands and would be back later, so that she could have a good rest at home.
Mrs. Liu didn't ask any questions, nodded and watched them go out, then waved me over.
"Child, what are they doing?"
I shook my head and said that I didn't know either, but the person who looked at me seemed very anxious and was talking about Liu Enbao.
Um? This name is so familiar. By the way, the person who first discovered the hyena and brought it home, and wasn't it the family of this man named Liu Enbao that this strange incident in Huangfeng Village first happened?
But the hyena is dead, what else can happen to their family? Could it be... that the Sancai Association was looking for him to vent its anger?
Thinking about it this way, it is quite possible that the woman surnamed Tao has been defeated by Mrs. Liu. If she is not saved, she will turn around and attack other villagers. With their usual cruel behavior, Liu Enbao may be in danger... ....
Mrs. Liu saw my worries, and first comforted me, saying that although Yang Hongfei had a weird temper, he had real skills, so it wouldn't be a big problem if he left.
I'm not commenting. I don't have a very good impression of Yang Hongfei. Apart from anything else, just the fact that he tricked me to death last night, I have drawn a line with this person in my heart. If it weren't for I couldn't stand the earnest persuasion of Tai Qing and I wouldn't stay at his house for one more day!
Mrs. Liu and we were chatting casually, when suddenly the courtyard door was pushed open, and Tai Qing rushed in eagerly.
"A Fei! Another person was bitten to death by the hairy monster!"
I was surprised, a hairy monster? You're talking about hyena! But hasn't this guy been killed by the yellow skin released by Mrs. Liu? No bones left!
Suddenly an idea flashed through my mind, who said there can only be one hyena? Rats are divided into male and female, let alone a character like this who has practiced some Taoism. Although the local dialect is quite nice, called "Qiu Xian", in essence, it still belongs to the category of spirits. For example, the folk Wong Tai Sin is the weasel spirit that has become the climate, and the White Fairy is the hedgehog spirit that has become a spirit. These all follow the natural way of heaven and earth, distinguishing yin and yang, male and female.
Thinking about it this way, it is not surprising that there are many hyenas.
"Is it Liu Enbao?"
Tai Qing was very surprised when he heard me asking him, but he didn't know that someone had come before him and had already roughly told who the trouble was.
I frowned and asked him why he came back alone and could leave his wife there so confidently? He waved his hand and said that she and Xiao Yu were driving sheep behind. He walked quickly, so he came back first and called me, preparing for us to go to Liu Enbao's house to visit.
I glanced at Mrs. Liu, who understood my worries, nodded and said that she still had the power to protect herself. At the same time, she also hoped that we would go to the scene to see if Qiu Xian was causing trouble.
To be honest, I have no confidence. Without the solid backing of Gui Yatou, I really don’t dare to take Tai Qing and the others into danger easily. But since Mrs. Liu said that this old guy Yang Hongfei has some skills, why not be brave enough to go see it? look. Anyway, to Huangfeng Village, we are just outsiders, so we will not be involved.
After making the decision, Xiao Yu and Tang Keyun happened to come in and drove the sheep into the sheepfold. Without saying anything more, everyone walked towards the place where the incident occurred.
Human lives were at stake, and the few old people scattered along the way were heading towards Liu Enbao's house. There was not even a single person working in the fields.
While walking around, I accidentally took a look at the terrain around Huangfeng Village. I didn't look carefully when I came here yesterday and was frightened by the dog. Only now did I notice that the village is located in a "Y" surrounded by three mountains. In a Y-shaped lot, or in other words, the village is located in a "Y" shape between three mountains.
How did I figure it out? When I passed by the primary manufacturing facility just now, I was surprised to find that there were three main roads extending in three directions from the location of the primary manufacturing facility. One is the main road we took into the village, which is the widest and flattest. The other two go toward the northeast and northwest. After climbing the mountainside of two mountains, they then go down to hug another mountain. On both sides of the three main roads are private houses scattered freely. Liu Enbao's home is at the foot of the mountain looking northwest of the primary manufacturing plant.
A strange association suddenly flashed through my mind. The three mountains in Huangfeng Village and the three families of Aunt Li, Aunt Song and Grandpa in Dengxing Village are all located in the shape of "pin". And those people who followed my grandfather to Changbai Mountain many years ago all live in two villages, spreading their branches and leaves. Could it be that Huangfeng Village is like Dengxing Village, hiding some unknown and shocking secrets?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that all the incidents I encountered when I returned to my hometown were somehow destined. Why was it that the village was calm before I came back, but as soon as I returned to the village, things broke out? A series of strange things happened?
The ghost girl said that my destiny has been changed, which means that the trajectory of my life has changed. As for where this trajectory will go and how long it will last, it is beyond human control.
Following them, he walked leisurely, thinking too far ahead. When he came back to his senses, a large crowd of people had already appeared in his sight. "That's Uncle Liu's house!" Xiao Yu said anxiously, pointing to the exposed roof tiles surrounded by the crowd.
Before we got there, we saw a cloud of dust rising from the direction of the primary manufacturing plant. It was obviously a car driving over. Needless to say, it must be a police car from the town police station.
The police car stopped outside the crowd before the rest of us, and four people got out in a row, one of whom was not wearing a uniform and was probably a forensic scientist or something like that. The four people professionally dispersed the crowd and quickly set up a cordon. While notifying everyone to try not to watch or enter to avoid damaging the scene, they also called people from the village committee and the village chief, asking them to cooperate and report the case to the police. Witnesses were called in to investigate.
The few of us were isolated in the outermost area, unable to see the scene, let alone the progress of the investigation of the case. We could only seek information from the people in front.
Fortunately, Taiqing and I speak pure dialects. Although others looked at us strangely, they saw that we were with Yang Hongfei's granddaughter, so they didn't ask any more questions and told us the general story of what happened.
In the morning, someone in the village came to Liu Enbao to buy chickens. After calling for a long time, no one answered. That person knew that Liu Enbao was not a bedridden lazy man. It was just dawn at this time, so he was unlikely to go to work in the fields. I just guessed whether he was sick or something like that. Liu Enbao was alone in his family, so don’t sit down just because he was sick and there was no one to take care of him (the dialect here in Huangfeng Village means dead), so he went straight to Liu Enbao. In the yard of his house, when there was still no response when he shouted again, the man pushed the door in and found a humanoid object lying motionless on the ground, with a pool of dark red liquid underneath him...
This scene frightened the man so much that he ran back to the village shivering and called the branch secretary and the village chief to come and see him. Of course, he also called many people to strengthen his courage.
When they entered the house to check, Liu Enbao was already dead. There was a big hole in his chest, his internal organs were hollowed out, and the expression on his face was extremely painful and horrified, and he was distorted beyond human appearance. The branch secretary immediately called the police. After discussing with the village chief, they decided not to move anything in the house, evacuate everyone, and wait for the police to deal with it.
"Alas, this Liu Enbao also has a hard life. He ran away from his wife and children, not to mention, and now he dies unexpectedly... Hey, you said that we have been having a lot of trouble here recently, and now another person has died, isn't it because of some kind of plague god? ?”
A man with a sparse beard and short hair was chatting in plain language with the man next to him, and his words revealed a feeling of worry and fear.
However, after searching for a long time in the crowd, I found no trace of Old Man Yang. I couldn't help but feel strange. Didn't this guy go out before me?
Since Liu Enbao was alone and had no family or relatives to notify, the police notified the village chief and branch secretary of the cause of his death and death, and the latter handled the information and affairs.
Needless to say, such a horrific scene has ruled out the possibility of suicide. However, if we want to further determine the cause of death and the murderer, we still need to transport the body back for dissection and testing. So in the panic of the villagers, the forensic doctor and the police comrades worked together to clean up the situation. The blood and fragmented human tissues from the scene were collected from the body and transported together to the ambulance that arrived later.
I'm very surprised, how did Tai Qing know that this was done by Hyena?
