Chapter 161: Finding Foreign Aid
Since then, all the villagers of Shuiyue Village have known that Sister Xu, the goddess of the wooden house on the mountain, raised a female abandoned baby, named Yu Jiali, and adopted her as an apprentice, which can be regarded as a successor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
The light in the cave under the house was very dim, only an oil lamp was illuminating the space, the faint light was like a bean sprout beating, the light illuminated Yu Jiali's childish face, and even brightened the pain in her eyes.
Finally put aside the doubts about Yu Jiali in his heart, Yin Qiqi sat closer to Yu Jiali and slowly hugged Yu Jiali into his arms:
"Don't be sad, everything your master does is to protect you, as long as you leave Shuiyue Village and live well, then your master will be relieved in the sky, and you don't want your master to worry about you, right?"
Yu Jiali was lying in Yin Seventeen's arms, and she had endured the sound of telling herself not to cry in her heart, but at the moment when she was hugged by Yin Seventeen, she suddenly collapsed, her strong coat was torn apart, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth again and cry bitterly.
Such Yu Jiali is undoubtedly distressing, whether it is the already soft-hearted Yin Seventeen, or the appearance of cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
The atmosphere was filled with sadness at this moment, Yu Jiali suppressed her voice and cried, and Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen also fell silent.
The silence of the two is a silent mourning for Sister Xu's death, and it is also a comfort for the silent companionship of the sad and sad Yu Jiali.
After Yu Dehai took the villagers and did not find Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen on the mountain, he returned to the wooden house early in the morning, carried Sister Xu's body out of the wooden house, and carried it all the way to Shuiyue Village at the bottom of the mountain.
With Yu Dehai leaving with all the villagers, the wooden house returned to its previous peace and tranquility, but this peace and tranquility carried sadness that was not there before.
After Yu Dehai and the others left the wooden house and went down the mountain, Zhanyan, Yin Seventeen, and Yu Jiali returned to the wooden house from the hole under the house.
Zhan Yan and Yin Qi looked at the inner room in front of them that seemed to have been ransacked, while Yu Jiali was kneeling on the mat where Sister Xu was originally sitting quietly and dying, crying silently.
Although the hole under the house is not completely dark, the difference between looking at Yu Jiali in the sun is completely bright and looking at Yu Jiali in the faint light.
Last night, Yin Seventeen only felt that Yu Jiali was a good-looking little girl, and she finally saw Yu Jiali's appearance clearly, and she felt that the adjectives of the word "good" were no longer enough to describe Yu Jiali's appearance when she first appeared and grew up to be a big beauty.
Zhan Yan said: "They messed up everything in the room, and almost destroyed all the clues that the murderer might have left. β
Yin Seventeen Dao: "It is very likely that there is a murderer among them, and the destruction of all this does not rule out that the murderer did it deliberately." β
Zhan Yan sighed slightly: "Although we know that the murderer is hidden among the villagers of Shuiyue Village, it is really not ordinary to find it, and we don't seem to have enough time. β
Yin Seventeen looked at Zhan Yan in surprise: "Brother Zhan is talking about the body of Sister Xu who was carried down the mountain by the villagers?" β
Zhan Yan nodded.
That's right, if the murder scene is destroyed, then the only evidence left is the body of the deceased himself!
Yin Seventeen said: "We have to go down the mountain quickly, now Sister Xu's corpse is the last clue!" β
But first, the two had to find foreign help.
The two learned from Yu Jiali that although the village of Shuiyue Village is not large, there are about 2,000 people, of which at least one-third are young and middle-aged, which is still a conservative estimate, and the real number should be much more than this estimate.
One-third of the two thousand people is nearly seven hundred, and the real number may be a little more, and the two estimate that there are nearly eight hundred young and middle-aged people.
No matter how good the two of them are, they are also invincible with four fists with both hands, if they can't ask for help, Mo said that the two of them found out the cause of Sister Xu's death in Shuiyue Village, and it is also a headache to take Yu Jiali out of Shuiyue Village safely.
Zhan Yan agrees with Yin Seventeen's statement, of course, this is the most important thing at the moment, but he has to consider Yin Seventeen's personal safety:
"Now there are many of them, there are only two of us, and they are regarded as murderers, as long as we go down the mountain and appear in front of their eyes, the result can be imagined."
Yin Seventeen said: "If you don't go out of Shuiyue Village to find a helper, Brother Zhan, I and Jiali will stay here and wait for you to come back." β
Zhan Yan already had this idea, and when he heard Yin Seventeen also had this idea, he naturally agreed, but he also understood Yin Seventeen, and narrowed his eyes slightly and asked:
"Will you stay here until I bring my helpers back?"
was questioned by Zhanyan like this, Yin Seventeen should have been angry, but she inexplicably became weak-hearted, and replied with a blank look in her eyes:
"Of course!"
Zhan Yan walked up to Yin Seventeen and stared at her face to face:
"You can do what you want, but ......"
Before Zhan Yan's words were finished, Yin Seventeen's eyes that had originally lowered and didn't dare to look at him had been raised brightly:
"I promise to be safe!"
Yin Seventeen looked serious and serious, and he only needed to point to the sky with four fingers and swear to guarantee.
Zhan Yan knew that even if he objected, Yin Seventeen would not really be able to hide obediently and not go deep into Shuiyue Village to investigate the case, and in the current situation where he had to go out of Shuiyue Village and return to the Yamen to transfer people, he could only retreat and agree.
Zhan Yan looked at Yu Jiali, who had stopped her tears and was sitting quietly on the mat, he walked up to her and squatted down:
"After Brother Zhan leaves, you have to help Brother Yin go back to the village to check some things."
Yu Jiali nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Zhan." β
Although Yu Jiali doesn't go down the mountain, she is indeed much more familiar with everything about Shuiyue Village than Yin Seventeen, and she can help a lot at this point.
Zhan Yan said again: "Protect yourself, don't make trouble for Brother Yin, get rid of Brother Yin's hind legs, and cause Brother Yin to be in danger, can you do it?" β
Yu Jiali didn't nod her head, she blinked a pair of eyes and looked at the face of the person in the painting in surprise, and she couldn't react for a while.
However, Yin Seventeen heard Zhanyan's words on the side, and said a fair word for Yu Jiali with a little stutter:
"Zhan, Zhan, big brother, beauty is just a nine-year-old girl......"
Zhan Yan stood up, looked at Yin Seventeen, who was speaking for Yu Jiali, and then at Yu Jiali, who was still staring at him with blinking eyes, and said as a matter of course:
"That doesn't justify her dragging others down."
That's a good thing to say.
When Yu Jiali heard this, she immediately lowered her eyes and clenched a pair of small pink fists, and replied with frustration:
"I can do it, I promise Brother Zhan, I can do it!"
Zhan Yan frowned and said loosely: "Very good." β
Looking at Yu Jiali's aggrieved and lonely and helpless little pitiful appearance, Yin Seventeen really couldn't bear it, and pulled Zhan Yan to the side of the single wooden door in the inner room and whispered:
"Brother Zhan, the promise of the beauty just now did not lie, she is sincere, as for the things that were said in the hole under the house, I am at least eighty percent sure that the beauty is not lying, I think she will not harm me......"
Zhan Yan interrupted: "What about the remaining two percent?" β
The remaining two percent?
Yin Seventeen naturally ignored the remaining two percent in his heart, but Zhan Yan was not, he couldn't ignore any possibility that might endanger Yin Seventeen's life.
Zhan Yan had obviously figured out what Yin Seventeen was thinking, and she was also dumbfounded by his rhetorical question, and knew that he was caring about her, so she fell silent.
Zhan Yan asked Yin Seventeen: "If I were to be you at this moment, would you let me take the risk of these two percent?" β
Yin Seventeen said: "Yes, we have no better choice than that. β
Zhan Yan asked again: "Then will you remind me to be careful of these two percent of the risk before leaving?" β
Absolutely!
But Yin Seventeen's answer was only in her heart, she understood the meaning of Zhan Yan's rhetorical questions about her, once she understood, she felt that she really shouldn't say anything more.
Zhan Yan finally said: "I only care about the people I care about." β
only cares about the people he cares about, so he doesn't care if his words are too much, whether they hurt anyone's young heart, because Zhanyan is just Zhanyan, he only cares about the people he cares about.
Others are not out of the question, but that must be in the case of ensuring the absolute safety of the people he cares about.
This last sentence, Zhan Yan definitely explained it very clearly, it seems to contain other emotions, but Yin Seventeen is a person with super five senses, not low IQ, not low EQ, but he has never thought about love.
But when Yin Seventeen thought about it, she could learn from some of Zhanyan's words that it was a new realm for her.
Zhan Yan left, and Yin Seventeen then quietly went down the mountain with Yu Jiali.
Yu Jiali said that in addition to the road up the mountain from the front, there is also a road on the side of the mountain that can lead directly to the head of Shuiyue Village, and Zhan Yan walked from this road, and Yin Seventeen and Yu Jiali went down the mountain from the front of the mountain.
It seems that there is no trace of Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen on the mountain, and when Yin Seventeen and Yu Jiali went down the mountain cautiously, they didn't see half of the villagers of Shuiyue Village along the way.
When Yin Seventeen was puzzled, Yu Jiali explained to Yin Seventeen:
"Brother Yin, Uncle the village chief should have asked them to guard the two entrances and exits of the village, and some people should have gone to the ancestral hall in the village!"
Yu Jiali means that whenever someone dies in the village, the body will be parked in the ancestral hall of Shuiyue Village for three days, and after three days, it will be buried.
And the first problem that Yin Qiqi encountered when he entered the village was undoubtedly the two young villagers in front of him who were chatting and inspecting the surrounding movements.
Yin Seventeen and Yu Jiali squatted behind the trunk of a big tree closest to the entrance of Shuiyue Village, and there were two adults with fat bodies, and the thick trunk of the fat body was hidden under the slender two, and it didn't take any effort at all.
Yin Qiqi thought about how to enter the village: "Beauty, will there be someone inside the village wall who is also guarded?" β
Yu Jiali thought for a while and said: "When I guarded the two entrances and exits of the village like this last time, I remember that there seemed to be!" β
The village wall goes around the village, and the length is not usually short, and even if there is, it should be in the form of patrols walking back and forth.
Yin Seventeen asked, "How many groups of people are divided?" How many people are in a batch? β
Yu Jiali didn't even think about it now, she shook her head directly and said:
"That time, there were also deaths in the village, and the master didn't let me get involved, I knew that I still secretly went down the mountain to see this."
Yin Qiqi listened to Yu Jiali mention human life, and the definition of Shuiyue Village in his heart couldn't help but take a step further in the direction of bloody and brutal:
"Human life? Who died? β
Yu Jiali said: "It seems that they are also outsiders, there are three people, all of them are dead...... Brother Yin, you and Brother Zhan should be careful, none of you can die! You're going to take me out of Shuiyue Village! β
This is really true, but Yin Qiqi can actually hear that Yu Jiali just doesn't know how to express her own emotions, obviously a sentence that cares about her and Zhanyan's safety, but she said it as if it was for herself in the end.
This may be related to the place where Yu Jiali grew up since she was a child, but also to the way Sister Xu was educated since she was a child, and the respectful attitude of all the villagers in Shuiyue Village towards Sister Xu.
In such a high-minded and solitary life, Yu Jiali, as the descendant of Sister Xu who inherited the Yellow Fox Fairy, of course, has been respected by the villagers like Sister Xu, and because of her young age, she has been loved by the villagers.
Obviously, now is not a matter of correcting Yu Jiali's tone, Yin Seventeen asked:
"Do you know who those three people are?"
Yu Jiali said that she didn't know, because after she was discovered by Sister Xu and sneaked down the mountain, she was quickly arrested by Sister Xu in person to the village.
Yin Seventeen asked, "Your master personally came to arrest you back, so where did you catch you at that time?" β
Yu Jiali said: "Uncle of the village chief." β
Soon after Yu Jiali sneaked into the village, she was discovered by the patrol, and because of Yu Jiali's different identity, the villagers who found her took her to Yu Dehai's house.
After Yu Dehai saw Yu Jiali, he sent someone up the mountain to inform Sister Xu, and Sister Xu soon followed the villagers who went up the mountain to inform Yu Dehai's house.
As soon as she arrived at Yu Dehai's house, Sister Xu only expressed her gratitude to Yu Dehai, and silently took Yu Jiali back to the wooden house on the mountain.
Yin Seventeen said: "Did you hear anything about those three outsiders that time?" β
Yu Jiali shook her head and said, "I didn't hear it, the village chief and uncle didn't let me be present when they spoke, but ......"
However, Yu Jiali is not an honest and quiet person, except for Sister Xu's words, she will never obediently listen to anyone.
So before Sister Xu came to take her back, Yu Jiali took the opportunity to go to the toilet, and she tried to sneak away again.
Of course, Yu Jiali didn't slip away smoothly, otherwise there would not have been something that Sister Xu brought her back later, but in the process of slipping away, she accidentally bumped into someone in a panic!
Who that person is, Yu Jiali doesn't know.
But Yu Jiali could be sure that that person must be one of the three outsiders, because that person was dressed up extraordinarily, and he was obviously not from Shuiyue Village.
Yin Seventeen asked, "Do you remember what that person looked like?" β
Yu Jiali said: "Remember! If Brother Yin wants, I can draw that person's appearance for Brother Yin! β
As a goddess, it is natural to draw symbols, and to draw symbols, the most basic thing is to be able to write and draw.
