Chapter 3 Post-mortem
"Why did you die in the morning?"
"Then I won't survive tomorrow?"
Meng Fan followed his father in despair, pondering as he walked, until he walked to the courtyard of Zhuzi's house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the courtyard was already crowded with villagers, buzzing and talking, and when he saw Father Meng coming, he quieted down and automatically made a way, with a very uneasy look on his face.
After all, someone had just died two days ago, which made people panic, and now someone has died, and it is normal for a young man to be uneasy.
Meng Fan looked around at the onlookers, although he went home less and less often after going to school, he was familiar with most of those faces. Many of them also greeted Meng Fan and invited him to sit at home, which made Meng Fan's cold heart rise a trace of warmth.
At this time, an old man stepped forward and stuffed twenty yuan into Father Meng's hand, and his tone was very sad: "Brother Meng, old rules, you can give an autopsy." ”
"Village Chief Sun, there will be no charge this time, and the village is not rich. Father Meng put the money back in the old man's hand, patted it, and took Meng Fan into the dilapidated old house with the pillars.
"Then there is work!" Village Chief Sun collected the money, shook his head and sighed, "Hey, you said that the carpenter just left, and he didn't expect the pillar to leave again, this is really a dead man who is afraid of loneliness, and he will not be safe when he leaves, so he has to call a companion to go together!"
With that, he walked to the house and closed the door tightly to block out the villagers who were concerned about the matter.
The corpse of the pillar lay flat on the kang, covered with a broken futon, and a fishy smell permeated the air.
Father Meng's face was solemn, he stepped forward, lifted the broken futon, revealed the true face of the pillar, was stunned suddenly, his expression changed, and it took a while to return to normal, and he checked it without saying a word, and a sentence came to his heart, this pillar died worse than Carpenter Zhang.
"Pillar!!"
The first time Meng Fan saw it, he only glanced at it, but like five thunderbolts, his face immediately became bloodless, and his whole body trembled.
Shock, fear, sadness...... All kinds of emotions came one after another, making him tumble in his stomach and almost want to vomit!
I didn't expect that the pillar who was still drinking with him alive yesterday would become a dead man after a night!
Such a horrible and miserable death!
"What the hell have you been through?!"
In fright, Meng Fan stared at the pillar's face, the pillar's complexion was already dark, but at the moment it was extremely white, without a trace of blood, like a woman with foundation;
Especially a pair of eyes, covered with dense bloodshots, turned crimson, and became terrifying blood pupils!
These pair of blood pupils opened roundly, like two blood holes, oozing sticky and smelly black blood, shocking, as if they were staring at Meng Fan, making people feel a chill in their hearts;
Moreover, this pair of blood pupils seemed to be full of soul power, and just by looking at it, there was a feeling of losing one's soul.
Under the gaze, Meng Fan's eyes suddenly darkened, and he stumbled under his feet, almost falling to the ground.
"Xiaofan, don't look at it, go and stay outside. ”
The old village chief supported Meng Fan in time, his eyes were full of pity, he watched Meng Fan grow up, and often took Meng Fan as an example to teach the young people in the village who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and did not despise Meng Fan because he graduated and returned to the village.
"Uncle Sun, I'm fine. ”
Meng Fan pinched his thigh, not looking at the pillar's eyes, and after a little slowdown, his mind cleared up. But the shocking scene just now made him think that he might die like this tomorrow, and his heart became trembling.
"Two people died, and the deaths were miserable, is it really a coincidence?"
"What should I do?
"Bet this is a coincidence, bet that the death of the pillar and Carpenter Zhang is just an accidental death, bet that I won't die, bet that I can survive tonight in peace?"
"There's only one life, can you gamble?"
Meng Fan's heart was in a mess, and his mood became irritable.
"No! I'm a fool who gambles with my life, I can't sit still, I have to find out the truth! Otherwise, tomorrow I will be the next dead man! I must not let my father give me an autopsy!"
Meng Fan walked out of the house, ignoring the inquiring eyes of the villagers, and walked quickly towards the house, the sunlight was divided into pieces by the leaves, making the shadows of his footsteps messy.
And not long after, Meng's father also completed the autopsy, re-covered the body of the pillar, and was silent for a while before saying to the village chief: "After the examination, the death of the pillar is the same as Lao Zhang, there are no external injuries, and no disease has been found, and the death is very strange." ”
"Ahem. The old village chief coughed twice while holding his chest, and kept sighing, "Hey, what kind of evil is our Mengjiazhuang, what's going on, it seems that we have to find a Shiva to do something, Brother Meng, you have always had dealings with Mrs. Zhang's family, so please leave this matter to you." ”
"No problem, I'll go back and inform Mrs. Zhang, I haven't seen her for a long time. Father Meng was also quite helpless, and glanced out the door, "What do you say to the villagers about this? ”
"Let's just say that he sleeps dead. The old village chief shook his head, "There is a shortage of strong laborers in the village, so don't die anymore." ”
Father Meng went out to give a brief explanation to the onlookers, and the villagers' hearts were filled with sadness and slowly dispersed.
"Death looks strikingly similar......"
Thinking back to the process of performing the autopsy on the pillar, Meng's father had an ominous feeling in his heart, the pillar looked the same as Carpenter Zhang, and it was very likely that he had encountered dirty things, and Meng Fan came back in the pillar's car, could it be that Meng Fan was also ......
"Not good!"
Father Meng's right eye jumped violently, as the so-called left eye jumped wealth, right eye jumped disaster, he couldn't help but panic in his heart, his brows were tightly locked, and he hurriedly walked home.
"Son, son!"
As soon as he entered the gate of the courtyard, Meng's father shouted urgently and called Meng Fan out of the house.
"What's wrong, Dad?"
Meng Fan held a worn-out medical book in his hand, looking at his father's anxious appearance with a confused face.
"Tell my father, did you and Zhuzi encounter something unclean on the way?" Father Meng took Meng Fan's hand and looked into Meng Fan's eyes, revealing concern and anxiety that could not be concealed.
"I didn't ...... No, I slept all the way, and I got to the village without any problems. Meng Fan's eyes flickered, his arm was grabbed by his father, and he avoided his father's gaze and pretended to be nothing.
"Don't get into trouble, don't get in trouble. Father Meng's words were repeated, unable to hide his worry, and whispered, "Don't run around if you haven't had anything to do recently, the village is not peaceful, two people have died, I don't want to ...... you."
"Got it, don't worry, Dad. Meng Fan pretended to nod indifferently, feeling very guilty in his heart, glanced at his father deeply, and said, "If it's okay, I'll go read a book." ”
"Wait a minute. Father Meng glanced at the medical book in Meng Fan's hand, felt a little relieved, paused, and said, "Village Chief Sun plans to ask Shiva to do a ritual, so as not to die again, you go to Mrs. Zhang's house to invite someone, and by the way, let Mrs. Zhang help you take a look at it and get rid of the filth on your body, that Mrs. Zhang still has some Taoism." ”
"Wait a minute, go right away. ”
Meng Fan is studying pharmacology, planning to find some herbs such as tonifying kidney yang and nourishing essence and blood, to see if they can have the effect of driving away evil spirits, and time is pressing.
And Shiva is the so-called goddess, good at exorcism and ghost hunting, worshipping gods and praying for rain, and many people in mountain villages make a living from this.
In Meng Fan's opinion, these goddesses will only pretend to be gods and ghosts, deceive and deceive, and find them to do things, I am afraid that the timing will be delayed, and many people are unlucky because they believe in these goddesses...... With this time, it is better to seize the time to find a countermeasure from the scientific perspective...... Of course, the words can't be said to be absolute, when he goes to invite Mrs. Zhang, he will definitely ask for advice, maybe she really has some means.
"Dried ginger, cinnamon, cistanche, sentinella, dodder seeds...... These herbs are positive, if you get some ginger, garlic, chili pepper and other things wrapped together and carried on your body, maybe you can keep the evil qi from invading, and it has a miraculous effect. ”
Meng Fan muttered, turning around to look for medicinal herbs.
"Son, ......" Meng's father stiffened his face, "You'd better go now, what if something happens to you, do you want me to break my heart with your mother?" Also, aren't you quite familiar with Mrs. Zhang's granddaughter, let the family show you." ”
"Well, well......"
Meng Fan subconsciously put down the medical book in his hand......
