"Dazhu, you said that you seemed to see a figure flashing by the river, so you chased after it curiously, and then found that the fish and shrimp in the river were dead, right?" Mu Jinxi asked.

Dazhu nodded vigorously, "Yes, I thought it was some kind of big bird, so I chased after it, but the big bird didn't see it, but I saw that all the fish and shrimp in the river were dead, and I was scared to death." ”

"Can you tell me what's going on with that shadow? Are you sure you saw it, it wouldn't be dazzling, right? Mu asked as if she didn't believe it.

Dazhu was anxious, "Sister Xiaoxi, no, I really saw a black shadow flashing by, absolutely not mistaken, my eyes are amazing, I can see anything far away even if it is a small insect, there is really a black shadow!" ”

If he wasn't like Aunt Zhang, he would have thought it was a ghost, and he would have disappeared in a flash, he was puzzled, but he was sure that he was not dazzled!

"Dazhu, what is this black shadow, is it the ghost of this black shadow?" The village chief asked.

Da Zhu shook his head blankly, "Village Chief, I don't know, I haven't even seen it, how can I know who did it?" ”

Aunt Zhang on the side heard Dazhu's words and immediately shouted again, saying who offended the gods, this is a punishment given by the gods or something, hearing that Mu Jinxi just wanted to shut up and tell her to shut up, but thinking that she was an elderly person, it was okay to say that it was an elder, so she had to endure it.

Being yelled at by Aunt Zhang like this, it made other people's hearts a little infiltrated, people in the countryside are more or less a little believing in gods and ghosts and the like, can Xiushuihe not make people doubt that such a thing happened for no reason?

"Village chief, let's find someone to see if there is a problem with the water in the Xiushui River, if the water in the river is really poisonous, then the villagers have to pay attention." Mu Jinxi said.

As soon as the village chief was reminded by her, he thought of this aspect, and hurriedly asked the village doctor to come over. After hesitating for a while, he asked: "Xiaoxi, you see that the shopkeeper Zhang asked your father to look at Xiushui River, then now that something has happened, your family is probably not out of it, do you have any ideas?" ”

Since the last incident, he felt that Xiaoxi's child was very different from before, much smarter, smarter than his granddaughter, as if he had grown up all of a sudden.

He has lived for decades, although he has been living in Xiushui Village, but he still has the ability to see people, Xiaoxi, this child is no longer the Xiaoxi he used to be, and I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, alas!

"Village chief, what's the use of you asking Xiaoxi about this kind of thing, let's quickly send someone to Peach Blossom Town to tell the shopkeeper of Sù Zhang!" Cuihua Niang pouted and interjected.

She can't wait to see that the Mu family is unlucky, let them covet her silver, and retribution is coming.

The village chief glared at Cuihua Niang angrily, "You stay and don't help, we can make trouble, the Mu family is unlucky, we can be fine?" ”

Mu Jinxi didn't bother to entangle with Cuihua Niang on her tongue and said to the village chief: "Village chief, let's first determine whether our village's own people did it." Ask one by one, from the hour to the future, where everyone has gone during this time, what has they done, what can be clearly explained, someone can prove it, naturally there is no problem, and the opposite is ......"

On the contrary, there is a problem.

The village chief turned his head to look at Mu Jinxi, thought for a while, and then responded: "This is not a bad way." Call the whole village to my house, and I'm going to ask them one by one to see who is so bold! Hmph, let me find out and never be spared! ”

The village chief let go, although everyone felt a little uncomfortable doing this, as if they were investigating criminals. But if you think that you have a clear conscience, you can check it, and if you find it out, they also want to know who is so bold.

Everyone gradually dispersed, and each went back to inform his family.

The village chief, Mu Jinxi, Mu Laopa, Qiu Ju Dazhu and others continued to stay by the river, and after waiting for half an hour, the doctor in the village who knew a little about seeing a doctor came.

As soon as he heard that he wanted to see if the water in the river was poisonous, the doctor's eyes widened, "I am seeing patients, and I am not detoxifying, how do I know if the water in the river is poisonous?" ”

The village chief waved his hand and said, "Since you are a doctor, how can this matter be difficult for you?" Don't be verbose, hurry, I have to go back and ask someone. ”

The doctor had no choice but to harden it, and after a long time, he said: "This water has indeed been poisoned, but the Xiushui River is a flowing river, so the danger of this poison is not great, so don't use the water of the Xiushui River during this time, and don't eat the fish and shrimp in the river." ”

Mu Jinxi frowned when she heard this, and thought of the Peach Blossom Restaurant.

By the time the village chief returned home, the villagers had basically arrived, and the village chief asked them one by one, but found nothing, and no one had done anything suspicious during this time. This makes it difficult to find out who did it.

When the village chief asked someone, Mu Jinxi was also on the side, and the more he listened, the more his heart sank.

It wasn't made by people from Silk Village. The life of the villagers is very normal, every day from sunrise to sunset, except in the field is at home, occasionally going to the market, very simple. Everyone is able to tell their whereabouts very clearly, and there is nothing suspicious.

I don't know why, Mu Jinxi remembered the black shadow that Dazhu said.

Could this dark shadow actually be someone who knows martial arts? Only those who know martial arts can pass by in a flash, is it ...... A pair of eyes flashing with a narrow light flashed, could it be him?

But why did he do it? What good is poisoning in the river for him? It can't be because she claimed ten taels of silver from him, right? Or was it because she didn't agree to let him stay overnight?

Mu Jinxi secretly regretted that she didn't ask about the man's situation, she didn't even know what the name was, where she came from, and where she was staying now, so where did she go to find someone?

If it was really him, it would not be enough to pay a hundred taels of silver!
