Chapter 112: The Witch's Untold Secret

An hour later, I came alone to the outside of the witch's hut, and by this time the woman named Cangji might have gone home to grow vegetables, and I was not hindered when I entered the outside of the witch's house.

When I saw the witch again, she had already changed into a floral dress and opened the door, I thought she was not a witch, but I will probably never forget those bloodshot eyes, those eyes, gloomy and terrifying, and I, under the guidance of the witch, came to this thatched house again.

Unlike the previous time, the witch moved a stool for me to sit down next to the wooden plank, and handed me a cup of ginseng tea with a smile and asked me to drink it, saying that I had just experienced demon possession, and drinking this thing would bring good fortune to ward off evil.

I smiled, put the cup of ginseng tea on the coffee table next to me, and said slowly, "I don't dare to mess with the things in the witch's house." ”

At this time, the witch didn't seem to react, and asked me with a smile on her face what this sentence meant.

I subconsciously touched my nose, and then said: "Actually, the witch knows better than anyone else that there are no souls or ghosts in this world, and if there really are, then these ghosts can only come from people's hearts, am I right?"

I didn't say it too clearly, and I didn't point at her nose and call her a magic stick, after all, I don't know how many poisonous snakes there are in this room.

She was slightly stunned, then her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said with a smile: "If you believe it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not have it, but the soul that is attached to you can be seen by your friends, can you still call it a fake?"

When I said this, she didn't get angry, but handed me the cup of ginseng tea again and said slowly.

I shook my head, pushed the ginseng tea forward, and said, "Witch Woman, the poppies you planted in your backyard should sprout next month, right?

I think everyone should be familiar with the poppy, they all say that the poppy can be made into medicine, and it can also become a poison for the wreckage of the human mind, it depends on how people use it, and my grandfather and I have lived together since childhood, and he also told me that in some of the food sold outside, the store will add it to the food in order to make customers addicted to the food they produce*.

So, my grandfather, fearing that I would accidentally eat the outside* and what is refined from poppies, taught me how to identify poppies from an early age.

When I woke up in the hotel and tasted for the first time the aftertaste of the powder from the witch's hand, I knew that 80 percent of the powder she had sprinkled was extracted from poppies, and 20 percent was some Chinese herb that could make people faint.

That's why I hallucinated in front of the witches, and even unconsciously, I went berserk and threw everything here to the ground.

And this scene was also interpreted by the witch to mean that I was possessed by Ran Ximin.

At first, I thought that the witch was just trying to create an atmosphere after I was possessed by a demon, so that we could believe that there were ghosts in this world, and that there were even people who could communicate with ghosts.

However, when Li Yan told me that the witch had asked him to take me out of the mountain city before we left, this sentence also confirmed from the side that the witch did not want us to stay here.

I've never met her, so why would she want us to leave?

The only reason is that she wants to stop us from investigating Ran Heemin's death.

Who would want us to interrupt the investigation, except for the murderer, I don't think anyone would be so desperate for us to go, right?

However, in the previous investigation, I did not find out what connection Ran Ximin had with this witch, at most, the witch had said when she met us that she and Ran Zhong were ......

Wait, this old lady, shouldn't it be for Ran Zhong...... Ran Ximin, who just killed, right?

At this time, I suddenly felt a chill in my left hand, and when I looked back again, a finger-thick bamboo leaf suddenly burst out from between my left wrist, at this time, he was coiled around my arm, several times, he was spitting apricots, trying to eat me.

I saw the witch frowning, and immediately smeared a yellow powder on my left hand, the bamboo leaf green, and then turned around and fled.

"Mother-in-law just doesn't want you to continue the investigation, I know you're a policeman, I knew it from the first day you came to this village. The witch looked at me and placed the small porcelain bottle with the realgar powder in her hand next to my cup of ginseng tea.

"There is indeed something in the ginseng tea, and I put realgar in it. The witch spoke again.

I glanced at this ginseng tea, and then looked up at the witch, I believe that she didn't have any intention of harming me, otherwise, she could have just stopped helping me, then my fate would be the same as Ran Feng, and she didn't have to bear any criminal responsibility, after all, she only had to excuse myself and say that I was bitten to death by a snake, and this snake was not enough for her captivity.

"Witch Woman, you are kind to the old man......"

Before I finished speaking, the witch woman closed her eyes, sighed and said, "Actually, Ran Zhong and I have known each other for a long time, and when my husband was still alive, I ...... with him It's together, but at that time, Ran Zhong had a wife, and I also had a husband, and the two of us were together, and in that era, we would be immersed in the pig cage. ”

This news is like a blockbuster* to me, I can't believe that Ran Zhong and the witch woman are actually ...... There is a leg.

Immediately afterwards, the witch told me that she and Ran Zhong were truly in love, and the other half of the two of them were still alive at that time, and they could only secretly date on this mountain, and over time, the witch found out that she was pregnant, but she couldn't be known by her husband, so she lied that she went out to travel, but in fact, she was waiting to give birth on this mountain, and Ran Zhong also went up the mountain almost every day to take care of the witch at that time.

The child was conceived in October, but they were worried about the child's future life.

The witch woman wanted to have a child, but after going out to travel for a year, she brought back a child, which inevitably made her husband suspicious, at this time, Ran Zhong proposed to let him bring the child back, because at that time his wife was seriously ill and did not have a few years to live, and he needed a spiritual sustenance.

The witch thought about it, too, at least when her husband was alive, they couldn't be together at all, and leaving a child was regarded as a link between the two of them.

Speaking of this, I reacted, and immediately looked at the witch and asked in surprise: "You mean, Ran Ximin...... Is it you and Old Man Ran's son?"

The witch woman nodded, and said helplessly: "A few years later, Ran Zhong's wife died, he and this child depended on each other, everyone was very poor at that time, and I always went over secretly, put down the money and left, but who knows, Ximin grows bigger and bigger, but he also grows and mixes, stealing, robbing, and finally, even ...... Hey, when Ximin was eighteen years old, Ran Zhongzhong was incapable of disciplining this child, so he sent him to my side to discipline him for a few months, this child behaved very pure in front of me, and even recognized me as a godmother, and I also taught him how to control the snake, but who would have thought that he would actually use the methods I taught him to do evil in the village, I ......"

"Then do you know that Ran Ximin secretly carried Ran Zhong on the mountain and left him to fend for himself?" I asked slowly.

The latter's two lines of tears fell suddenly, and nodded, saying that at that time, she watched Ran Ximin carry Ran Zhong up the mountain, and it was he who asked people to go up the mountain to chop wood, and deliberately let people find Ran Zhong, at that time, she already knew that she had given birth to a demon.

Hearing this, I asked again, "So, you ...... Want to destroy the consequences of your time?"

"Yes, for the sake of the villagers, for the sake of Ran Zhong, I had to do this, but I never had a chance, because Ximin has not come back for so long, until, the news of Ran Zhong's death came, and then I knew that he must have been killed by Ximin...... And Ran Feng, in these ten miles and eight villages, is there a family that doesn't have a male yellow outside the door, how come there is no one outside Ran Feng's house? I think, he must have provoked Ximin, so he caused such a murderous disaster, right?"

"Then you, why did you let us get out of here quickly? Is it because you don't want us to investigate deeply and find out Ran Ximin's background?"

The latter wiped away his tears, took a deep breath, and said, "I don't have a relationship, but Ran Zhong has been innocent all his life, although he is dead, I don't want him to let the villagers poke his backbone after he dies, right?"

Hearing this, the big rock in my heart rose again, no, not a witch, but not a witch, then who could it be?

I stood on the top of the hill of the witch's hut, frowning, looking at everything under the mountain, the scenery was beautiful, the mountains and rivers were all in my eyes, but who knew that even in such a beautiful place, there would be a scourge like Ran Ximin.

Yes, Ran Ximin's death is a bad thing for him, but it is a great good thing for the ten miles and eight towns here.

But as for the boss, I still remember that the smiling face of the proprietress was also the last smiling face, which made me insist on helping the proprietress get justice.

Wait a minute......

Madame...... Could it be that the person who killed Ran Ximin...... It's him......
