Just when we were very curious, the door of the courtyard opened silently, and a stooped old man appeared at the door.
He walked towards us slowly step by step like a zombie. When I saw Hu Tiangang following behind me, I relaxed a little.
Presumably Hu Tiangang is observing the old man's condition at all times and will not let his life be in danger.
When Wu Zimin was about to reach the door, I was shocked and saw the demon transformed into an octopus again.
Lying on the soul of the old man's head like a facehugger, his physical reaction was completely in a vegetative state, and he walked to the door in confusion and paused.
"This..." Xing Baole looked at the devil on Wu Zimin's face, took a step back and said, "This thing is really disgusting, like a parasite."
I frowned and said nothing. The old man didn't seem to have the key. Just when I was wondering how he came out, Wu Zimin slowly walked to the right wall.
In front of our shocked eyes, Wu Zimin jumped out of the wall like a spring under his feet, and then continued walking towards the river like a zombie.
Xing Baole and I looked at each other and followed closely. During this period, Xing Baole went up to talk to him several times, but the old man had no reaction at all.
His expression was dull, and his eyes were so dull that he could not turn around.
I asked Hu Tiangang if there would be any sequelae after Wu Zimin was possessed by the devil. Hu Tiangang thought a little and said no, but he would probably be weak for a few days.
I sighed secretly. In order to find the disappeared souls of the villagers and explore the shocking conspiracy of the devil and the evil organization, it was a helpless move to use Wu Zimin.
Not long after, Wu Zimin came to the river and stopped. I looked in the direction of the canoe and saw Xu Jinhua kneeling next to the baby's body without knowing what to say.
Seeing me coming, she looked over curiously.
"He moved." Xing Baole said suddenly.
I quickly looked around and saw Wu Zimin walking to a shallow area of the river in a daze, then kneeling down on his legs and lying straight on the ground, with his head just in the water.
"No!" I was shocked inside, and subconsciously I was about to take action.
Hu Tiangang tugged on the white chain with his right hand, and the devil attached to Wu Zimin's face was pulled out directly. The octopus-like tentacles squirmed and transformed into the devil again.
The devil's face kept changing between skeletons and various ferocious expressions, his mouth opened wide, and he let out a silent roar.
None of us said anything, just staring at the demon, wondering what its next move would be.
The demon roared for a moment, and then tried his best to break free in the direction of the lower reaches of the river.
My heart moved, and just as I was about to speak, Hu Tiangang, who was holding the chain, flew away in the direction of the devil.
"Great." Xing Baole suddenly said: "He must be going to a mysterious place. If we follow him, we will definitely find something, solve the crisis of the villagers, and discover the secret of the evil organization."
I was also quite excited inside. After getting Wu Zimin into the canoe and making sure he was okay, I followed closely.
At this point, the truth about the deaths of Xiao Zheng, Xu Jinhua and the villagers has been revealed.
This is not sneaky revenge at all, but the devil is at work.
It is estimated that the demon could not kill the villagers directly, but first controlled the villagers to commit suicide, and then used special abilities to control the souls to leave the bodies to carry out some evil purpose.
As for what the conspiracy is, maybe you can find out the truth by following the devil.
But just when we took more than twenty steps, a cold feeling suddenly came from behind us.
I quickly turned around and saw Xu Jinhua, the soul, following behind me.
After a pause, she showed a pleading expression: "Baole, Mr. Da, please allow me to follow you. Did you discover any special situation? I want to find Xiao Zheng's soul."
I stretched my neck and glanced at the wooden boat in the distance. Xu Jinhua seemed to read my thoughts and said, "Mr. Da, please don't worry. My daughter's condition is quite stable now. I told her to be obedient and wait for my return."
At this moment, the resentment of the infant spirit on the canoe has been reduced by most, and there should be no accidents, so I acquiesced that Xu Jinhua would follow.
In the middle of tracking the devil, I looked at Xu Jinhua curiously and asked, "There is something that I am very puzzled about. Why did you choose Xiao Zheng? After all, he is... ah, no, I don't mean to look down on you by saying this. You are older, after all, there is a big age difference between you."
I have always been curious about why a sixty-three-year-old woman would choose a fifty-year-old bachelor, and the bachelor actually agreed to date Xu Jinhua and supported her in having children.
Xing Baole also showed a curious expression. He probably wanted to know what was going on more than I did.
"I..." Xu Jinhua first showed a look of resentment, "Half of the reason why I found that man was because of that bitch Zhang Meng. I wanted to find a helper to deal with her with me, and I was so angry, but..."
She paused and looked down the river and said again: "But a big part of the reason is that I still want to find someone to rely on. My son works in other places all year round, my daughter-in-law is not filial, and I am getting old, so I want to have someone to accompany me, but I am very worried. I have no one to rely on for my old age."
Later, Xu Jinhua said that there were no single old men in the village, so it was helpless to choose Xiao Zheng, but now that he had decided, he did not consider the issue of face.
After all, at such an old age, to put it bluntly, I might just kick off my legs one day, so why do I care about face?
I was quite worried that Xiao Zheng would not agree, so when I saw him buying wine home that evening, I came up with a plan, dressed up and went to seduce him successfully.
Xu Jinhua also said that Xiao Zheng strongly disagreed with being with him at first, but the rice had already been cooked and Xu Jinhua had no way out.
She persuaded her and said, "Although I am older, I am still a woman with a strong body. I can take care of you for at least a few years, and maybe I can give you a boy and a half girl."
Xu Jinhua was originally joking, but Xiao Zheng, who had been single and childless for half his life, was beaten for real after confirming that Xu Jinhua was not menopausal.
Xiao Zheng was overjoyed and strongly asked Xu Jinhua to give him a child. Xu Jinhua was very conflicted at the time and did not agree.
It means that she is so old that she has no energy to take care of the child after giving birth. Besides, the two of them together will have a bad influence on the village. If she really gets pregnant...
Xiao Zhengze said that you will not be able to take care of your children in the future when you are old, but I can take care of them. Besides, we are both like this now, and we are not afraid of worse effects. We will give birth to children when they are due.
Go your own way and let others have their say. It's very unpleasant to live in the eyes of others.
The main thing is that Xiao Zheng still doesn't want to die.
In this way, Xu Jinhua became pregnant, and despite the strong opposition of her son Xu Gang, she still wanted to give birth to the child.
Hearing this, Xing Baole and I looked at each other with regret in our eyes. The reason why these two people were together was finally revealed.
However, when Xu Jinhua told what happened, he occasionally showed an embarrassed expression, and finally said shyly, "Although Xiao Zheng is idle all day long, he is quite considerate to women. She made me become a woman again." , I found the feeling of falling in love when I was young.”
After finishing speaking, the old lady lowered her head in embarrassment.
Xing Baole and I looked at each other and smiled strangely, both of which showed the inexplicable meaning in each other's eyes.
One is a bachelor who has no woman to warm his bed, and the other is a widow who is hungry and thirsty.
The two of them were like dry wood meeting a burning fire. They collided with each other and created sparks that they couldn't let go of. They were able to meet each other's needs, which is probably one of the reasons why the two came together.
Xu Jinhua then prayed that we must find Xiao Zheng's soul, and resentfully asked me to kill the invisible demon and cut it into pieces.
If it weren't for the devil, how could she, her unborn child, and Xiao Zheng have died.
I looked at the resentful Xu Jinhua and said, "It's not certain whether your husband Xiao Zheng's soul is still there. As for the devil, don't worry, I won't let him go."
Xu Jinhua nodded and said nothing.
At this time, we had walked out for nearly a kilometer, and the river was wider than before. Just when we were curious about how far the devil would go.
It suddenly paused, its bloodthirsty eyes glanced towards the river, and after a moment, it dived directly into the water.
"This..." I was shocked. I actually went underwater. How should I track this?
Hu Tiangang flew directly over the river and turned back: "Which one of you will come down with me?"
Lao Xianjia's body is an energy body and is not afraid of river water, but my water properties are not very good.
"Let me go down." Xing Baole began to take off his clothes quickly and said to me: "Xiao An, please wait here for a while. I will go down to see the situation first. If there is no problem, I will tell you what happens next."
