Chapter 1252: The Guilt of the Old Witch Village

The matter of the old knife actually started from 30 years ago.

At that time, the old witch village was not only such a small population, it could be said that it was the largest Miao village around the entire Longxi County, with a large population and the largest amount of farmland.

And at that time, the people in the Miao village were very united, and the other Miao villages around them have always maintained a certain awe for this famous old witch village.

The most fundamental reason is because there is a very famous witch doctor in this old witch village.

Everyone calls him Lao Daozi, I heard that it is the younger brother of the owner of this old witch village, the two are brothers, the relationship between the two brothers has always been very good, the elder brother is responsible for the management of the village, and the younger brother just studies his own medical skills every day.

At that time, the old witch village was far prestigious, and anyone who had a little headache and brain fever around would come to the old witch village to seek medical treatment, no matter who came, no one would come to the door empty-handed.

It can be said that at that time, the old witch village was able to stand firmly on top of each village, and half of the credit was because of the old knife.

Who knew that such a good life did not last too long, and in the middle it was three or four years, and the old knife was suddenly driven out of the stockade.

And on the same night, something suddenly happened in the stockade, and the old knife was driven out of the house, and rushed into the thick miasma outside, and since then, has not appeared in front of anyone.

This matter has always been pressed by the owner of the village, and he has never been willing to mention this matter to anyone.

In fact, the old knife was caused by a plague in the village that year.

At that time, the plague occurred in many villages, and the epidemic occurred very quickly, and soon spread continuously in various villages.

At first, it was only an infection between livestock, and it did not infect people, and although a lot of money was lost, the villages did not care much about it.

Only in Laowuzhai can the epidemic be controlled, and since the beginning of this plague, it has always been the old knife to control the spread of the plague.

Whoever had any livestock in the whole stockade, as soon as they found it, they immediately threw it outside the stockade, dug a big pit, threw the livestock into it, and covered it with mud to keep the plague as far as possible.

Originally, this plan was relatively successful, at least on the side of Lao Wuzhai, there was no serious plague infection in a short time, but I didn't expect that this time the plague was not so easy to deal with.

There was finally a person infected with the plague in the village, and the old owner of the village couldn't remember what the woman's name was, but he remembered that this woman was suddenly infected with the plague at that time, and she was foaming at the mouth with convulsions, which frightened him for the first time, and even forgot that he was the owner of the village, and everyone was looking at him.

Fortunately, the old knife was on the side at that time, and when he saw that the woman suddenly fell ill, he rushed over desperately, first isolated the person, and then poured the woman with the herbs he picked back from outside.

But this time, his invincible decoction did not have any effect, but only temporarily alleviated the woman's condition, and for a few days, the woman's condition gradually worsened, and finally the whole person could barely stand up.

In desperation, the old knife had no choice but to use a way of fighting poison with poison, and used a poisonous insect that he had cultivated for many years to pour this woman down, hoping to have a little effect.

After this poisonous insect is down, it will take a lot of time!

There is no way to see the effect in a short period of time, and the old knife can wait and know this situation.

But the villagers outside didn't know, but they saw that the woman had not reacted for a long time, and immediately found the old village owner

, hoping that he can give an order to dispose of this 'dead' woman, just like he did with those livestock before, and send her outside to dig a pit and bury her.

At that time, the old owner of the village saw that his younger brother had been trying his best to heal, but it had no effect, and he was a little worried about his younger brother's treatment, so he temporarily stabilized the villagers who came to the door, turned around and returned home, and asked his younger brother how the situation was.

At that time, the old knife had always been helpless against this plague, and it was not until he put the poisonous insect in his hand on this woman's body that he finally found a little hope.

Because since this poisonous insect was placed on this woman's body, her condition really seems to be a little bit better.

It's just that the speed is really a bit slow, if he hadn't been observing it every day, I'm afraid even the old knife himself wouldn't have been able to find out.

The owner of the village naturally believes in his younger brother, but no one in the villagers outside wants to believe this, and from the bottom of their hearts, they don't believe that the old knife can save people.

Although the old knife and the owner of the village assured that they had found a way to control the plague this time, they could see the livestock at home dying one by one, and this fear was constantly fermenting in their hearts, and no one wanted to believe them at all.

Finally, one night, taking advantage of the darkness, the villagers followed the second elder to launch a rebellion, and a large number of villagers rushed into the house of the owner of the village with shovels and hoes in their hands, pressed the owner of the village and the old knife to the ground, and carried the woman on the ground out of the village with straw mats.

No matter how desperately the old knife shouted at that time, these villagers who were dominated by fear chose to ignore it, and after sending the body outside, they dug a huge deep pit in the ground and threw it down.

The second elder ordered that the 'corpse' be buried on the spot, and as for the old knife and the owner of the village, they were temporarily tied up at home.

The owner of the village has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and where can a rope tie up a body of martial arts?

But when the two brothers rushed outside the village in the pouring rain from the sky, the pit on the ground had already been dug, and there was a lot of stagnant water in the pit, mixed with dirt, and it looked dirty, and it had already become a quagmire.

And in this quagmire, a miserable white arm was sticking out of it, but none of the villagers standing around showed a trace of pity on their faces.

"She's not dead, she's alive, the plague can be cured!"

At that time, the old knife shouted loudly, wanting to rush up to save people, but the people led by the second elder were all young and strong men in the village, and four or five people rushed up, and pressed the two brothers to the ground, not letting them move.

In this way, the woman who could have been cured was buried alive by the second elder and others.

The owner of the village knows that the people involved in the village account for more than half, no matter what he is saying, these people will not listen, they have gone crazy, tormented by the fear in their hearts.

It was precisely because of this that the Second Elder was easily used by the Second Elder and successfully drew these people into his subordinates, and from now on, these people will inevitably become the help of his subordinates.

And the poor woman was buried alive by these people, and he could not have said it, and once he did, not only would the village be in turmoil, but it was even very likely that there would be a riot.

So in the end, he could only grit his teeth and remain silent, and it was precisely because of his silence that the old knife lost all confidence in the entire stockade.

A few months later, the government discovered the epidemic here, arranged for a large number of anti-chemical personnel to come over, dealt with the plague here, and inspected the various villages to make sure that there would be no recurrence of the plague, and then left.

But less than a year after the departure of these anti-chemical warfare personnel, a large amount of miasma appeared outside the stockade, whenever night fell

Waiting, a large miasma will appear around the village to cover the sky and the sun, and there will even be a terrible cry in the middle.

All the people who participated in that incident began to feel uneasy in their hearts, because everyone's hearts were full of guilt for the woman who was buried alive by them.

Therefore, at night, everyone closes their doors and does not dare to go out at all.

In the whole village, the only person who dared to go out at night was the old knife, and at first some people found that he could come and go freely in the miasma, and thought it was just an ordinary mist.

But it turns out that things are not so simple, some people have tried it with livestock only to find that the miasma floating up outside is actually highly poisonous, after the livestock sticks to this poison, they will die almost immediately, and when the day dawns, the miasma will disperse, but the carcasses of the livestock were gnawed by unknown things, and the blood on the ground is very terrifying.

I don't know who was the first to start the story, saying that the original woman came back to take revenge, and she wanted those people to pay for her life.

The rumors say that there are noses and eyes, and people have to believe it, after all, that incident made many people feel guilty, and now all they can think of is this possibility.

Whenever he heard such a legend, the old knife only sneered, did not express any opinion, and did not treat anyone for any illness, and his temper became more and more strange.

The people in the stockade all said behind his back that he was crazy, because of the incident back then, he had become a complete madman.

For the old knife, people's respect from the beginning gradually changed their original attitude, because he was no longer treating the people in the village, and these people began to alienate him, and even began to resist him.

Seeing this scene, as the owner of the village, he had no way at all.

He knew that there was nothing wrong with the old knife doing this, but now the people in the entire village have begun to say that they are going to drive away the old knife, and he also knows that this day may not be too far away.

This sense of powerlessness tormented him for more than half a year, in fact, he knew that all this was the result of the second elder behind his back, but he had no way.

After all, the second elder has always been hiding behind his back, never standing up to say anything, and only when people's emotions have fermented to the peak will he stand up and say a word.

It's just that at this time, the villagers can't listen to anything else, and as the owner of the village, they can only compromise with everyone.

He could only talk to his brother in advance, hoping that he could be mentally prepared.

When the old knife was forced to the door of the house by a group of people, the old village owner was in the room, with tears on his face, but he watched everything happen without saying a word.

After hearing this, Ding Fan finally understood why this old village owner had been targeting the black-faced second elder.

But I also have to say that the old knife back then was more bloody than him, and he knew how to stop it when he saw unreasonable things.

At the same time, I remembered a sentence I had seen abroad: at the beginning they hunted down the Communists, and I didn't speak, because I wasn't a Communist, and then they hunted down the Jews, and I didn't speak, because I wasn't a Jew, and then they started hunting down the trade unionists, and I still didn't speak, because I wasn't a trade unionist, and finally they came to me, but no one spoke for me.

These words were engraved on monuments abroad, but I don't know why, Ding Fan actually felt that this sentence seemed to be very suitable for the old village owner.

Although he has too much helplessness, but this matter, after all, is because of his concealment, so that the old knife was forced to leave later, and now he regrets it, but the dead people have no way to come back to life after all!
