Not bad!

In the moonlit fields outside the window, the scarecrow that swayed in the wind when we came was gone!

I took a deep breath and looked at the broken straw that stretched out of the wooden house door to the old man's side, and my heart was even colder.

There was nothing related to straw in this wooden house, but from the door to the place where the old man was, there were broken straw all over the place......

And when the old man was awake just now, he dragged the broken straw and repeated the word 'ghost' in his mouth......

All these clues, coupled with the disappearance of the scarecrow, have pointed to what I just thought was an absurd possibility......

Thinking uneasily, Shen took a few steps to the door of the wooden house, closed the door of the wooden house, followed me to my side, and asked me to help her carry the injured old man on the ground to the board bed in the corner of the wooden house.

"Jiang Wangsheng, what do you think?"

After placing the old man, Shen Li stared at me and asked.

I took a deep breath and stared at Shen Li as well.

"Although it's ridiculous, the one who hurt this old man should be the disappearing scarecrow......"

I thought that Shen Li would refute me, but after Shen Li listened, he nodded expressionlessly, then turned around and went to the stove on the side of the wooden house, picked up two three-finger-thick firewood sticks, and handed one of them to me.

"Call the police first."

Shen Li said, holding a firewood stick and going to the window, inspecting the crops under the moonlight outside the window.

"Not ......"

I couldn't help but frown.

"Shen Li, this injured old man is an old hunter, right?

Just now you said that a few years ago, this old hunter killed his youngest son by mistake because of the scarecrow, and this time, it was the scarecrow who hurt the old man......

Scarecrow! Shen Li, don't you think it's very evil? ”

"Evil?"

Shen Li's voice was calm, still patrolling the crops outside the window, and he didn't even look back at me.

"Jiang Wusheng, you remember, at any time, don't think too complicated about things.

The 'scarecrow' is probably the suspect who hurt the old man, and it is now around this mountain field.

And what we should analyze now is why did the 'scarecrow' hurt the elderly? What is its purpose? It's not that the 'scarecrow' is evil or not. ”

"Then Shen Li said that why did the 'scarecrow' hurt the old man, and what was its purpose?"

I asked, and Shen Li finally turned around, but he glanced at me meaningfully.

"Jiang Wangsheng, these questions, you should ask yourself, why is it so coincidental, that 'scarecrow', just did it when we checked it......"

I was stunned when I heard it, and of course I understood what Shen Li meant.

The reason why we came to this mountain cabin was because of my car accident a year ago, and at the same time, the old hunter in this mountain cabin was attacked by a 'scarecrow'......

Could it be that this 'scarecrow' attack on the old hunter has something to do with my car accident a year ago?

I took a deep breath, and according to what Shen Li said, I didn't think about the weirdness of the 'scarecrow' first, but quickly analyzed whether the 'scarecrow' attack on the old hunter was related to my car accident a year ago.

First of all, if someone really stole the day after the car accident a year ago, then 'those people' would probably come to this mountain through the construction passage of the tunnel and put things in order.

Of course, this also means that the owner of the wooden house, the old hunter, knows those who steal the day......

"I see......"

I glared at Shen Li.

"That 'scarecrow' is the same as the 'people' from my car accident a year ago, and he hurt the old hunter because he wanted to kill people!"

Not bad! As long as the old hunter died, of course we could not tell from a corpse who 'those people' were in the hut at that time.

"Got it?"

Shen Li took the words and raised his hand to the wall on the side of the wooden house.

"Jiang Wusheng, then let me ask you again, what's wrong with that 'scarecrow'?"

I was stunned for a moment, and looked along Shen Li's finger, only to see that in the direction of Shen Li's finger, there was an old shotgun hanging on the wall of the wooden house in the candlelight.

For a while, of course, I understood what Shen Li meant.

The 'people' wanted to kill the old hunter, but the old hunter had a gun in his house, so 'those people' didn't dare to come hard, so they got into the scarecrow and attacked the old hunter by pretending to be a ghost.

And as for why a scarecrow...... Because those people, like us, also knew that the old hunter killed his youngest son by mistake, so they also knew that the old hunter would definitely have an uneasy and even fearful psychology towards the scarecrow, and it would be easier to attack the old hunter with a shotgun!

After sorting out the clues, I looked at Shen Li again, but frowned again, because I found that there was something wrong.

"Shen Li, according to that, the 'scarecrow' hurt the old hunter in order to kill the mouth, so why didn't it kill the old hunter directly?"

Not bad!

The old hunter had clearly been lying in the wooden house because of the scarecrow's attack, and had lost the ability to fight back, but why did the 'scarecrow' only hurt the old hunter and not take the opportunity to kill the old hunter?

You must know that as soon as the old hunter dies, the purpose of 'those people' to kill them has been achieved, so why not do it?

I was puzzled, but Shen Li's expression by the window remained unchanged, as if he had already guessed my doubts.

"Reasoning is always reasoning, and it is possible to be wrong until there is evidence.

Jiang Wangsheng, look for it, there should be evidence in this wooden house. ”

"Evidence?"

I frowned, and Shen Li gave me another blank look.

"Use your brain, if it's true that 'those people' are stealing the day, then why hasn't this old hunter found out about 'those people' for a year?"

"Because...... Because the old hunter took the benefits of those people! ”

I suddenly understood what Shen Li meant.

This is a mountainous area, and online payment is definitely not available, so if this old hunter had received the benefits of 'those people', he would have kept the things left by 'those people' in this wooden house, such as cash or gold and silver jewelry.

And as long as we find evidence that this old hunter received the benefits of 'those people', our reasoning can be established, and the identity of the 'scarecrow' can also be confirmed as the 'those people' who came to kill them!

For a moment, I couldn't help but grit my teeth when I thought that the 'scarecrow' just now might be pretending to be 'those people'.

If 'those people' really exist, and if Jiang Yunliu's memories are really true, then 'those people' are the murderers who made me an orphan!

My loved ones, my past, my future, were all buried by 'those people'!

"Jiang Wangsheng ......"

At this time, Shen Li by the window opened his mouth again, and his voice was low and fast.

"Since it is an extermination, and the old hunter is not dead, 'those people' will definitely not stop.

So you have to be fast, a wolf that can't kill its prey will attract a pack of wolves......"

I nodded, of course I knew that the current situation was urgent, and we must identify the 'scarecrow' as soon as possible so that we can respond accordingly.

took out his mobile phone and dialed the police, and then searched the wooden house.

I didn't miss a single corner, until I searched the whole cabin, but I found nothing......

"Could it be that our reasoning is wrong, that 'those people' from a year ago didn't come here through the construction tunnel?"

I frowned and looked at Shen Li by the window, who was also looking back at the wooden house.

And at that moment, a hoarse call came from the corner of the wooden house.

"San'er...... Ghost...... San'er ......"

Of course, the wounded old hunter we had just lifted to the bed.

I hurriedly stepped to the side of the bed, and saw that the old hunter was still sleeping on the bed in big characters, but he was staring, and his eyes were squinting downward, facing the direction of the window where Shen Li was standing.

It's like a person who has been pressed on the bed by a ghost, unable to move, except for his eyes open and looking out of the window, which is very weird.

"San'er!"

The old hunter still shouted, but his voice was no longer hoarse, but with a commanding determination.

"San'er! Get back!! ”

Of course I didn't understand, and I wanted to ask the old hunter what he meant, but before I could ask, the old hunter's eyes flickered, and he seemed to see Shen Li standing by the window, and then he tilted his head, then closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

"Old man! Wake up, old man! ”

I want to wake up the old hunter, because as soon as the old hunter wakes up, everything will be revealed, not just about the 'scarecrow', but also about the 'people' from my car accident a year ago.

Yet, no matter what I called, the old hunter kept his eyes closed and never woke up.

I gritted my teeth and pressed the old hunter's shoulders on both sides, shaking his shoulders as I called to him.

It still didn't work, no matter how much I called and shook, the old hunter didn't wake up again, but, because I moved a little big, this dangling made the old hunter's upper body shift from the pillow where he had been sleeping.

And how it shifted, I only saw that under the pillow where the old hunter was originally sleeping, a corner of a white book was exposed.

My heart moved, and I pulled out the white notebook, only to see that on the cover of the white notebook, there were the words 'Chen Sheng's diary', which turned out to be a diary.

Of course, this diary is under the old hunter's pillow, and this 'Chen Sheng' is likely to be the old hunter himself, and in this diary, will it be recorded......

Without hesitation, I took my diary to the center of the hut and read it by the candle flame on the wooden table in the center of the hut.

However, just by glancing, just looking at the first sentence on the first page of this diary, I couldn't help frowning.

"July 2, 2015.

He's crazy! He's crazy!!

He's been crazy ever since he went into the mountains and brought that thing back!! ”
