"It's true, he is really Changgui's tour guide. The photo shows him when he was young." Huang Mei also saw the photo.
That photo is actually a group portrait. Changgui is squatting in the corner. He is a little smaller, with a sullen face huddled in the shadows. It seems that he is not aware that there is a camera. If you don't look carefully, you won't notice it at all. he.
Suman looked at the uncle.
The uncle was also very surprised, "It's true, it really looks like Tour Guide Changgui, but after all, it's a wedding banquet in the village, so it's normal for Tour Guide Changgui to appear there."
It's normal, but not abnormal. Looking at the photos, Changgui must have been around ten years old at that time, and he was no longer an ignorant child. But it was clear that he was getting married, but there was no joy on his face at all.
After leaving the uncle's place, Suman decided to go to Changgui to find out. After all, the village chief had already set his sights on them, and it was only a matter of time before he took action against them. The village chief seemed to care about the cursed object, so she had to first Only when you understand it can you prepare for the next step.
Another point is that she is very concerned about whether Chang Gui and the village chief are planning something.
Before that, we must first determine where Chang Gui is now.
It's not hard to find.
Suman submitted the task first and received ten thriller coins.
She was actually thinking about whether she would be given the next task right away, but she was obviously overthinking it, but it didn't matter.
Before the three of them went out, Lin Qi came looking for them.
There was still concern on his face, "Are those people gone?"
If he doesn't come to Suman, Suman will go to him. After all, he seems to be an important part of the village chief.
She originally wanted to ask Lin Qi to follow them, but she didn't want to, but Lin Qi firmly refused. His death seemed to have killed his tenacious journalistic spirit. He was now extremely uneasy. Among them, only this familiar place can give him a sense of security, so he must not leave. He is afraid that as soon as he leaves this door, he will really die completely.
His uneasiness was all written on his face, and Suman didn't force it. She just told him to be careful. Everyone has their own destiny, and she can't bear it for them all.
However, Huang Mei hesitated and said uncharacteristically that she would stay and look after Lin Qi.
Suman glanced at her, and Huang Mei pulled her aside and explained quietly.
"Actually, since the accident, I have been wondering whether Lynch died for me.
After all, if he didn’t go out to report the news, maybe he wouldn’t die. If he didn’t go out to report the news, then I would be the one who went out..."
This thought made her feel tortured in her heart. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was what happened, and the more she felt sorry for Lin Qi.
Suman felt that the truth was probably not what she thought. This matter might really be directed at Lin Qi. What happened might just be a coincidence. She didn't quite understand Huang Mei's behavior of taking responsibility for herself when something went wrong. .
But since she has made a decision, she respects it, so just stay.
In the end, she went out with Sun Li.
The two people's method of finding Chang Gui was also simple and crude.
Suman knocked on the villager's door. When he encountered those who were uncooperative, Sun Li threatened them twice with his big fists. Some of them wanted to attack, but for some reason the moves didn't work on Sun Li. He received two more iron fists, and then he was gone. Someone with knowledge of the matter has been hired.
"In the dungeon of the village chief's house, Chang Gui was arrested by the village chief and put into the dungeon!"
This result was somewhat beyond Suman's expectations.
The village chief's house is easy to find. The most luxurious one in the center of the village is his.
When Suman and Sun Li arrived, they were surprised to find that there was no one in his house!
This was easier to do. Suman and Sun Li went straight in and found the entrance to the dungeon in the village chief's bedroom.
As soon as I walked in, I smelled a strong smell of blood, and I didn't know how many people had died in this place.
Called a dungeon, in Suman's opinion, it was nothing more than a small interrogation room where lynchings were abused.
Chang Gui was tied to a cross and covered in blood. He lowered his head and didn't react at all. He didn't know if he was dead.
Suman took out an injection that Huang Mei had given her before and injected it into Changgui. Within a few seconds, Changgui took a deep breath and seemed to be alive.
"You...that's you?" After he vaguely saw that the person coming was Suman, his brows were full of surprise.
Suman didn't say that tactful politeness to him, and kept the story short, "Do you know Miao Sheng?"
Changgui's eyes suddenly widened.
Okay, now that I already know the answer to this question, Suman asked another question, "How much do you know about a wedding twenty years ago...the golden hairpin...the cursed object?"
She tried to speak clearly.
Obviously Chang Gui still knew about it. He was silent for two seconds and said: "If you save me, I will tell you."
It has value and is certainly worth saving.
Suman immediately asked Sun Li to carry him out.
"You can't go back to my place!" Changgui saw that he was going back to his home and quickly stopped him, "Go to another place!"
According to Changgui's command, Suman and the others arrived at a small hut on the outskirts. The hut was just a small bungalow. Grass had grown in the courtyard outside. Apparently no one had lived there for a long time.
"It's absolutely safe here. This is my second uncle's home." Although the injection eliminated the negative effects, the essential problem of weakness still existed. He leaned against the wall with a pale face and took two breaths before continuing: "My second uncle's home." My uncle is Miao Sheng."
"Is your second uncle Miao Sheng?" Suman looked at his face, then remembered Miao Sheng's face she saw, and said honestly: "You are more anxious than your second uncle."
Chang Gui, "..He was already dead."
After two seconds of silence, he asked her: "Have you seen him?"
Then, without waiting for Suman to answer, he muttered again: "That's right. For a capable person like him, if he doesn't want to die, how can he die?"
His will was very depressed, and after he finished speaking, there was another long silence.
But Suman didn't save him just to see him depressed. Now she was full of doubts. She reminded him: "Why were you arrested at the wedding? What happened to your second uncle?"
Changgui sighed. Now that things have happened, there is nothing he can't say. During the time when he was arrested, his world had been turned upside down. "That wedding was the wedding of my second uncle, Miao Sheng."
After she learned that Miao Sheng was Chang Gui's second uncle, Suman now felt that nothing he said was so surprising.
"Why was I arrested? Ha." Changgui sneered, "When I went to ask what was missing in the village, I accidentally heard them outside the window saying that a cursed object was lost. I have always known that there are cursed objects. This The village chief told everyone, but I didn’t know that the cursed object was the golden hairpin! It was a token of love that my second uncle gave to my second aunt!”
"I was kept in the dark and deceived by them for more than 20 years!"
After venting his emotions, he laughed at himself: "Actually, I should have discovered it a long time ago. I should have discovered it when my second uncle and second aunt died on the wedding night, but I never wanted to believe that my village is so vicious. existence, they simply can’t tolerate my second aunt!”
"I have advised my second uncle a long time ago that my second aunt will harm him. They should not fall in love and want to get married."
