Chapter 110: The Witch
When I left Li Cuixia's house, I had asked Li Yan to help me check this information, which recorded the household registration file of the person who was stabbed to death by Ran Ximin back then.
That person is called Lin Yuanfei, the day he was stabbed to death by Ran Ximin, he happened to spend his 36th birthday with several colleagues in the town's KTV, probably because everyone was drunk, and when he saw the boss, he couldn't help but chat a few words, talking, and moving his hands and feet, this scene, happened to be seen by Ran Ximin, who entered the KTV, and several people scuffled like this, during this period, Ran Ximin pulled out a fruit knife and stabbed it into Lin Yuanfei's heart.
Subsequently, Ran Ximin was immediately controlled by several of Lin Yuanfei's colleagues, and Lin Yuanfei died on the spot.
If Li Cuixia has the perfect motive to kill Ran Ximin, then this person called Lin Yuanfei has a hatred for Ran Ximin.
Of course, I know that Lin Yuanfei is dead, but according to the information, Lin Yuanfei has a wife, and after Lin Yuanfei's death, his wife also remarried, and Lin Yuanfei's parents also died one after another due to the grief of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man.
"Do you suspect that Lin Yuanfei's wife has a motive to kill?" Li Yan squatted beside me, raised his head and asked suspiciously.
In fact, when I saw this information, I didn't have much hope for Lin Yuanfei, Lin Yuanfei died, he had no children, and his parents were dead.
The only person who may be resentful of Ran Ximin because of Lin Yuanfei's death is Lin Yuanfei's wife.
According to the information, three months after Lin Yuanfei's death, his wife also took everything he had and remarried.
From this point, it can be proved that Lin Yuanfei's wife does not seem to be in a state of death or life because of her relationship with Lin Yuanfei, so I don't think that Lin Yuanfei's wife will kill Ran Ximin because of Lin Yuanfei.
This line is broken, and Li Cuixia's line is also vetoed by me, so who will Ran Ximin have a common hatred with?
At this time, my phone rang suddenly, and the caller was an unfamiliar mobile phone number in Shanshi, and when I picked it up, I knew that the phone turned out to be Li Cuixia's.
I opened the amplification, so Li Yan, who was squatting on the side, could also hear it.
"Officer Fang, if you want to know something about Ran Ximin, take Ran Ximin's generation eight characters and go find someone called Gu Witch, I think she should be able to help you. ”
"Who's the ancient witch?, and what is the connection between her and Ran Ximin?" I asked, confused.
Li Cuixia said that she couldn't say it clearly on the phone, but only told me that I would go to find her, and everything would be clear, and then she hung up the phone.
Obviously, Li Cuixia wanted to remind me, but she didn't want to have anything to do with Ran Ximin, so she didn't say anything clearly, so she hung up the phone directly.
"Ouch...... Stomach hurt...... "I was thinking about what the relationship between this ancient witch and Ran Ximin was, Li Yan suddenly covered his stomach and rolled directly on the ground.
I frowned, thinking that Li Yan was joking with me, so I told him not to pretend to me and get up quickly.
But he was stunned and rolled on the ground for about five minutes, and the sweat on his head and heart fell like a waterfall, and I knew that something was wrong, and immediately helped Li Yan to stand up from the ground.
"Don't help him, let him lie flat. ”
Suddenly, Ran Chuang ran out of the police station, and when he saw Li Yan rolling on the ground in pain, he directly asked me to put Li Yanping on the ground, and sure enough, within two minutes, Li Yan also began to slowly get better.
But depending on the situation, Ran Chuang seems to know what Li Yan's stomach ache is.
"Have you ever dried your clothes outside recently?" After Li Yan regained his composure, Ran Chuang helped me resist Li Yan, and sent him to rest on the side of the police car, and asked sideways.
I nodded, and said that we did wash our clothes inside the hotel on our first day and dried them on the railing outside the hotel, but due to the hot weather, it dried for a few hours.
At this time, Ran Chuang frowned, didn't say anything, and took off all Li Yan's clothes.
At the moment when he took off Li Yan's clothes, I was stunned.
A black mark appeared near Li Yan's navel in this way.
Ran Chuang pursed his lips and said that it was because we were drying our clothes outdoors, and those poisonous snakes were probably climbing on our clothes along the railing, so our clothes were stained with snake venom.
This kind of snake entanglement is not uncommon in the local area, almost everyone has had it, Ran Chuang also said, if this Hesse mark around the human body, the head of the snake and the tail of the snake overlap, that is, when the person is poisonous, at that time, even the Da Luo Immortal has no way to save him.
As soon as he said this, I immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, and then I immediately jumped into the car, Ran Chuang asked me where I was going, I took a look, and told him to go to the hospital as a matter of course.
"It's useless, because I don't know what a poisonous snake is, and the toxin is not too deep, even the hospital can't do it, if you want to save Li Yan, now maybe, you have to go to the witch woman." ”
I glanced at Ran Chuang behind me suspiciously, and then he came directly to the driver's seat, and asked me to fasten my seat belt, and without saying a word, I started the engine and went directly to the other direction of Shanhong Village.
"You don't have to worry, the head of the snake didn't touch the tail of the snake, Li Yan is still saved, and look at the mark, this snake is not too deep, it doesn't take twenty minutes to get to the witch's house from here, and there is still time, like this kind of snake entanglement, it can be regarded as commonplace in our place, you will get into trouble as soon as you come, and it can be regarded as following the local customs." Ran Chuang glanced at Li Yan in the rearview mirror and said with a smile.
But I couldn't laugh at all, because I didn't know what kind of snake snake venom Li Yan was in, in case it was bamboo leaf green, then wouldn't Li Yan burp?
I voiced this doubt, but was rejected by Ran Chuang's words.
He told me that the witch was abandoned by her family in the snake cave when she was five years old, and what was unexpected was that the snakes did not bite her, but raised her, and it was not until she was eighteen years old that the witch woman came down the mountain.
And the witch's ability is not only that, in this ten miles and eight villages, who doesn't know that the witch can pass yin and yang, and call the dead from the ground, and even this witch will call the soul, there are several old people in the vicinity, one foot is about to step into the ghost door, and being shouted by this witch is directly equivalent to resurrection.
Listening to Ran Chuang, I also want to meet this witch, witch...... Ancient witches?
Thinking of this, I immediately asked, "Is this witch surnamed Gu?"
Ran Chuang glanced at me, nodded and said, "It seems that her husband's surname is Gu, but her husband was bitten to death by a poisonous snake three years ago, so now people call her a witch." ”
Hearing this answer, I was more or less counted in my heart, it turned out that the purpose of Li Cuixia asking me to find this person was to let me go to her to return my soul.
Twenty minutes later, our car slowly stopped at the foot of a mountain, according to Ran Chuang, this witch has a strange temperament, not everyone will help, but Ran Chuang has seen this witch woman before, also because of the snake entanglement, but at that time Ran Chuang was much more serious than Li Yan, the snake head almost touched the snake tail, so he also lived on this mountain for a few days, and this witch has an indescribable fate.
I didn't say much to Ran Chuang, and carried Li Yan, who had already begun to be drowsy, on my shoulders.
"I said Li Yan, can you eat less usually?"
In fact, the moment I carried him on my shoulder, I already regretted it, Li Yan was taller than me, such as Zhuang, carrying him, I really used the strength to eat.
This mountain is not high, but the two of us carried a Li Yan, but it was really difficult to walk an inch, just over half an hour of road, we walked for more than two hours before we walked outside the thatched house where the witch lived.
The thatched hut is large, and there is a row of bamboo patios in front of the house, and a pigsty and a chicken pen next to the patio.
"Witch Woman, are you there? I'm Ran Chuang, my friend is entangled in snakes, I want you to take a look. I put Li Yan directly outside the patio, and then walked to Ran Chuang's side and looked inside, only to see a woman in her fifties, who was walking out of the house with a vegetable basket at this time.
Later, I learned that this village woman was not a witch, but a villager from a nearby village, and she was still a little related to the witch's mother's family, so I came to see the witch when I had time.
"It's Ran Chuang, what's the matter?" The woman walked straight to the patio, and then slowly opened the door outside the patio and walked directly into us.
Immediately afterwards, Ran Chuang informed the woman that Li Yan was entangled in snakes, and then, the woman bent down to look at the snakes on Li Yan's body and nodded: "It's okay, it hasn't been wrapped around the navel yet, it's easy to do, you wait, I'll call the witch." ”
As she spoke, the woman immediately put down the vegetable basket in her hand, turned around and walked into the little-known thatched hut.
It took about fifteen minutes for the woman to come out of the house and let us carry Li Yan inside.
I nodded, gritted my teeth, and carried Li Yan up, and at this moment, I heard the sound of the grass swishing on the side, and when I followed the sound, a head full of carrion instantly appeared in the grass fifty meters away from me.
When he saw me, he immediately turned around slowly, and his face slowly appeared in front of me.
In fact, when I saw this face, I was stunned, I know this person...... Isn't that exactly...... Did Ran Zhong who drank dichlorvos die yesterday morning?
"Ran Chuang, help me take care of Li Yan, I'll be back in a while. ”
With that, I threw Li Yan to Ran Chuang, and then I pulled out my legs and ran towards the woods.
Ran Chuang didn't know why, until I ran and stood in place shouting my name, but I had taken care of so much at that time, when I ran to the bushes, I smelled a very strong rancid smell, and in that jungle, I even found a piece of carrion the size of a fingernail, but when I ran back, not to mention Ran Zhong's figure, I didn't even see a mouse.
I am very sure that Ran Zhong is dead, and I have personally examined it, the dead will not be resurrected, this is common sense, and it is also a scientific basis, but I saw Ran Zhong appear in front of me with my own eyes, and besides, he will leave.
I have never been able to solve this point, if it is explained by science, I can only say that Ran Zhong is likely to be a fraud.
But the state of the corpse was very different from his state, Ran Zhong at that time looked at me like a living person, and his wide eyes were exactly the same as when he died.
Am I really wrong? Ran Zhong is really not dead?
I couldn't help but ask in my mind.
But soon, I dispelled such thoughts, if Ran Zhong was not dead, then how could I explain the piece of carrion I found? How could a living person drop carrion everywhere?
Thinking of this, I searched here again, but I couldn't find anything, and in desperation, I had to go back to the thatched house first.
When I went back, I didn't enter the thatched house, but saw Li Yan kneeling on the patio shirtless at this time, and the woman I had just seen was holding a willow stick, dipping it in the bucket next to it, and then whipped it straight on Li Yan's body.
I didn't understand either, but when I saw the woman beating Li Yan, I was so anxious that I rushed up directly and asked her what she was doing.
But before I could say anything, Ran Chuang dragged me aside, saying that this was to detoxify Li Yan, and in that bucket, put antidotes, and when the water entered Li Yan's body, Li Yan would be fine.
When I heard this, I still couldn't believe it, just like that, Li Yan would be fine?
About half an hour later, with the help of the hot climate, the water quickly dried up on Li Yan's body, and what I saw with my own eyes was that the black mark attached to Li Yan's navel was also faintly disappeared under the witness of me and Ran Chuang.
This is an incredible thing for me, but under Ran Chuang's explanation, I found that all this can be explained, in other words, this witch knows snake venom very well, and in her hands, almost all snake venom can be easily resolved, so Li Yan can dissolve snake venom in such a short period of time.
But during Li Yan's detoxification, Ran Chuang told me a story that was haunted by snakes in the eyes of ordinary people.
Roughly speaking, the people who are infected with snakes are some people who are favored by the snake god, and they will go to the local witch to report without exception, the witch represents the incarnation of the snake god in the local area, if the witch can unravel the snake venom, then that means the snake god does not look down on these people, but if even the witch can not unravel the snake venom, then, the more comforting statement is that he was taken by the snake god and went to be a boy around the snake god.
"Actually, this is just a comforting wording, when the head of the snake meets the tail of the snake, it means that the person is deeply poisoned, even if Hua Tuo is alive, he may not be able to solve it, so, in the case of this person's death, this kind of rhetoric, how much, can still comfort the family.
It didn't take long for Li Yan to wake up in a daze, and after waking up, he asked me why he was here, and I gave him a roll of his eyes and said how I knew.
"Okay, it's not a big deal, the poisoning is not deep, some are saved, you have to remember in the future, sprinkle some realgar powder on the place where you live, so that those snakes, insects, rats and ants will not break in again. The middle-aged woman threw the willow stick aside and said to me with a smile.
I nodded, took out two hundred dollars from my wallet and handed them over, who knew that the woman was also very sincere, saying that she didn't need so much, only ten dollars.
I smiled and said, "Actually, I'm here today, not only for this colleague of mine, but for one more thing that I need the help of the witches. ”
"Young man, what do you want to do the witch for help? I'll help you pass the word first, and see if the witch can take it. The woman looked me up and down, and then asked.
"Cang Already, let this young man in, the other two, you have a cup of tea in the gazebo next to you. At this moment, suddenly there was an old voice from inside the house, and I glanced at the thatched house, the door, but I did not know when it was opened.
The woman, Cangji, nodded, and led me straight into the thatched hut.
When I first entered this thatched house, I found that this house was very large, and some legends about the snake god were pasted on the walls around it, and even on the inside of this thatched house, there was an offering image of the snake god, and the surrounding area of the offering had been smoked and sallow, so this offering image should have been enshrined here for many years.
In the center of the thatched hut was a large wooden plank, surrounded by four black skeletons and four bright candlesticks, and in the center of the formwork sat an old man in a black robe with only one jaw exposed.
She kept her head down, holding a snake-shaped Buddhist tablet in her hand, and muttered something in her mouth.
I originally thought that she was just a god who pretended to be a ghost, and she had some skills, but she was only good at detoxifying snake venom.
But who knows, her next move made me dumbfounded.
