"Someone! Someone jumped into the well! ”

A few days later, one evening, there was a shout from the well. The owner of the voice screamed and ran into the village.

In the evening, when the weather was getting colder, he went to the well to draw water, and in the twilight he saw in the distance a pole and a bucket scattered around the well, but there was no one in sight, and the other bucket did not know where it went. He was suddenly frightened, like someone stumbling into a well, and he hesitated to go over or go back and ask someone to come and have a look. In the end, he decided to go on his own. He walked slowly, stepped on the edge of the well with one foot, leaned out and looked into the well, the water was dark and gloomy, a bucket was floating on the water, and there was no body in sight. Gou Yu thought to himself that this person might have just fallen and sunk to the bottom of the water, in case there was still a possibility of survival, so he shouted and ran to the village chief's house.

The village chief had a phone at home, and when he heard what the dog left, he immediately called the police.

When the police arrived, it was dark, and they flashed a flashlight and sent a man down the well to check if there was a body. After the policeman went down, after a while, he dragged a corpse up, and some villagers who had come to fetch water unknowingly let out a burst of exclamation.

The deceased was a male, his body stiff and straight, probably long gone, and his face was black, which should have been closer to purple, but it looked pure black under the not-so-bright yellow flashlight.

"Isn't this history?" The village chief recognized the deceased. "You! Hurry up, hurry up! Go inform his family! "The village chief ordered one of the villagers. The villager happened to know Shi Tou's family, and ran in the direction of Shi Tou's house.

Qiu Yun was sitting on the edge of the kang, holding a needle and thread in her hand, embroidering on a white handkerchief, there was rice on the dining table, and a bowl was buckled on the bowl. The villager suddenly broke in, startling Qiuyun.

"Go check it out! You man, he jumped into the well! The villager snorted.

"Huh?" Qiu Yun was startled, and the handkerchief in his hand fell to the ground.

"Let's go check it out!" The man ran away.

Qiuyun ran to the well.

By this time, more villagers had gathered around the well. The police examined the body and found that the deceased had alcohol in his mouth, indicating that the deceased had drunk alcohol before his death and that it had not been more than 24 hours since his death. The deceased's flat pole and bucket are still there, indicating that Gou Yu was the first person to find it, otherwise he would have been picked up by the greedy villagers, or he would have reported to the village chief like Gou Yu, so that the body could have been found earlier. The time to fetch water is generally in the morning and evening, and the temperature is high at noon, and almost no one comes, so it is likely that the deceased fell into the water during the period between this morning and before the dog left, which was in the hot stage, and no one came to fetch water after the deceased died. This gives greater certainty to the time of death of the deceased. The deceased accidentally fell into the water, or was framed and pushed into the water by others, and it was impossible to commit suicide. The police surveyed the area around the well again and found nothing unusual, so it is more likely that they have fallen into the water.

Qiuyun pushed aside the crowd and couldn't help crying when she saw the corpse of Shi Tou lying on the ground, she didn't cry loudly, but it didn't mean that she wasn't sad.

The police officers all looked at her curiously, the deceased looked close to 40 years old, why was his wife so young, and they couldn't help but have a little suspicion of her.

"What time did he go out?" After Qiuyun calmed down, he was taken aside by the police for questioning.

"At noon, we had dinner at noon, and I went to the neighbor's house, and he said that he would go and fetch a bucket of water before going to the field. I played at my neighbor's house until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon and came home, by which time he was no longer at home, and of course I thought he had gone to work in the field, but unexpectedly, he died in the well. I also made dinner and waited silly. Qiuyun said.

"Does your husband have a habit of drinking at noon?" The policeman asked.

Qiuyun nodded and said, "He likes to drink very much, and he is often drunk, and he drank a little too much at noon today, and he was a little drunk, and I was also careless, he should not be allowed to come to the well when he is drunk, alas! He was still harmed by alcohol. ”

"Which neighbor's house are you going to?" The policeman asked again.

"West neighbor, Willow Branch."

"Does your husband have an enemy?"

"Probably not, he has a gentle and kind personality. We've only been married for a few months, and I don't know much about him. ”

"Why did he fetch water at noon? So hot? ”

"He always fetches water in the morning or at noon, and he comes back late every day, and when he goes to the well, it gets dark, and he says it's terrible to go to the well in the dark."

"You said you made dinner, didn't you notice that the water in the tank didn't increase? Or didn't you notice that the flat pole and bucket are not at home? ”

"At noon, I went out of the house first, and when I came back, I found that the water in the tank had not increased, but I thought that he did not go to fetch water, but went directly to the field, after all, the water in the tank is enough for today. As for the bucket and bucket, I don't know anymore, he does all the heavy work at home, and the bucket and other things are all in the Westinghouse, and I never set foot there, so I don't know if the bucket and bucket are there. ”

、、、、、、

The policeman asked her a lot of questions, and she answered without hesitation or choking, just answering them sadly, calmly, and without thinking, as if these were all ordinary questions.

The next day, the police visited Shi Tou's friend, the western neighbor Liu Zhi, in civilian clothes, and got that "Shi Tou loves to drink and often gets drunk, and he met his father-in-law through drinking." "Qiuyun came to my house, came at 1 o'clock, came back at 4 o'clock, and I taught her embroidery. yes, she comes to play a lot".

Qiuyun's suspicion was ruled out, and the case was closed with a stumble overboard.

Shi Tou was buried behind the distant woods behind the house, the first time Qiu Yun saw there, there was a large tomb, but it was not a large area, and it was only when you went in that you could see clearly, there was a partition between the graves, and only people from the same village could be buried in the same area. That day, Qiu Yun wore a white filial piety robe, watching Shi Tou's coffin slowly descend into the grave in the flying white paper money and the yin spirit banner fluttering in the wind. She suddenly threw herself into the coffin and cried loudly: "Shitou, don't die!" The onlookers hugged her and prevented her from rushing into the grave.

On the night of the first seven, Qiuyun was very scared, and an old woman from the same ancestor came to accompany her. Late at night, this old woman couldn't sleep, in fact, she was not a particularly bold person, but she was old, and they all said that older people could suppress ghosts and gods, so she came. The moon outside was round and bright, and it shone as white as frost on the ground. Suddenly, the door creaked, slowly opened, and the moonlight sprinkled in, illuminating the area in the door, the old woman stretched out the towel quilt with one eye, staring at the light, at this time a big foot stretched in, and then a gloomy voice - Qiuyun, I'm back to see you~

The old woman's scalp immediately exploded, and she hurriedly closed her eyes. At this time, I heard Qiuyun tremble and said, "Let's go, let's go, I'm afraid." The gloomy voice sounded again: "What are you afraid of?" Are you afraid that I will seek revenge on you? Then, Qiuyun let out a scream as if she had been skinned, and the old woman immediately opened her eyes—it turned out to be a dream. Everything was normal in the house, Qiuyun was still lying facing the wall, but I don't know if he was asleep.
