Chapter 451: Scam
"The most important thing at the moment is to find out who those people really are."
Everyone sat around and wanted to discuss the countermeasures. After all, this is not a trivial matter, and the fate of all the children in the entire village is involved, which makes them have to be cautious and cautious.
"But since those people left, they never came back, and they never revealed who they were, and each time they just sent someone to take their hair, and handed it over with one hand and exchanged it for gold. The person in the lead, judging by his accent, should not be a local. ”
This time, the farmer that Fei Ran and the others met at the entrance of the village finally spoke his first words.
And after Zhao Yuqin heard him say this, his eyes seemed to light up, and then he asked: "So, you only listen to the accent, where does he seem to be from?" ”
When Fei Ran first heard this, she suddenly realized, yes! Why didn't I think of it! If you want to investigate this clueless matter, then using this slightly obscure clue as an entry point should make a breakthrough.
When the farmer heard Zhao Yuqin's words, he also shook his head obviously, slapped his head, and laughed unconsciously: "Hey! Why didn't I think of it! Really! ”
When Fei Ranchu coughed lightly twice, the farmer reacted, and everyone present was waiting for his answer, so he hurriedly continued.
"Most of those people don't look like our Dongzhao people, their hair is blonde, their eyes are blue, they look like youkai, they don't understand what they say at all, they mumbl as if they are talking birds. It is also because of this that later it was said that when they were descended from the gods, there was no one who did not believe them. ”
The farmer said to himself, not noticing the somewhat distorted expression of Fei Ranchu next to him.
So, isn't this just a bunch of foreigners?
Seeing that Fei Ranchu and Zhao Yuqin did not interrupt him with their own questions, the farmer continued: "But there is one person who still looks very similar to our Eastern Zhao people. It's just that listening to the accent of the voice, it looks like the land of the Southern Barbarians, but I can't say exactly what the place is, I can only say that I have a general impression. ”
"So, did this person ever appear in the village after the group left?" Fei Ranchu continued to ask.
The farmer shook his head.
The result was naturally a little disappointing for Fei Ranchu, there were only two simple clues, and there was no way for everyone to start investigating. There are only these two clues in hand, but there is no connection between these two clues. For a while, I had already seen some hopeful paths, but suddenly it became a cliff again.
But Fei Ran's heart has a lot of doubts, if this matter starts from the cause, then the core keyword is hair. But if the group of foreigners, as the farmer said, what are they going to do with their hair?
As far as Fei Ran first knew, there seemed to be no obvious feature of hair in Western culture. But it can't be that they want to collect!
And a more critical point is that all they want is the hair of unmarried girls, and in the later stage, the villagers tried to use the hair of married women to counterfeit, but they were discovered by that group of people? This technology, apart from modern DNA, really can't think of any reasonable explanation.
And at this moment, Zhang Ran, who had been silent, spoke. The sound was not loud, but it made everyone present gasp.
"Legend has it that in the land of the Southern Barbarians, there is such a secret method. Using the hair of an unmarried woman as a medicine guide, and at the same time using the blood of a boy as a continuation, after some complicated rituals, it can be refined into a peerless secret medicine, which can solve thousands of strange poisons in the world, and can also cure all diseases and immortality. ”
A calm voice sounded, but it exploded like thunder in Fei Ranchu's ears, using the boy's blood.
Blood......
Her Xi'er!
Zhang Ran continued: "But this is not the most terrifying, this strange ritual is very complicated. At the full moon of each month, the hair of an unmarried girl and the flesh and blood of a boy are burned together...... And just like that, it took a full nine hundred and ninety-nine days. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Ran's expression also changed a little. Indeed, this is undoubtedly the cruelest thing for any woman to talk about such a topic.
Fira was still immersed in grief and fear, and did not come back to her senses for a long time. How worried she was for her Hee-sung's safety, and if it worked, she would even be willing to go for a life! Use your own life to replace Xi'er!
Zhao Yuqin on the side has been frowning, compared to Fei Ranchu, Zhao Yuqin is obviously more rational. He listened quietly, his brows furrowed more and more tightly, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.
And Fei Ranchu saw the change in Zhao Yuqin's expression very sensitively, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized.
So that's it!
Zhao Yuqin seemed to have seen through Fei Ran's original thoughts, and nodded slightly.
At this time, Zhang Ran and Fei Ran Chu finally figured out this matter thoroughly!
Such a farce, from the very beginning, was a shocking scam!
What gold and silver are soft, glorious and rich, from the beginning, are just traps! If what Zhang Ran said is true, then from the beginning, this group of people came for the hair of the girls in the village and those boys! In this way, it also explains why the villagers were able to find out that the villagers used women's hair instead.
Because, perhaps, they don't know it themselves. Replace it with the woman's hair, or just the guess of the group. It is precisely because they recognize the nature and characteristics of greed in human nature that they will guess that the villagers will definitely do such a thing in such a chaotic background. And the truth is, they really guessed right.
And the curse is even more nonsense! If the process of refining their medicine requires hair and boys, then they must have never thought of sparing the boys in the village at the very beginning!
What curses, all are false! It's all an excuse for them to kill!
Thinking of this, Fei Ranchu couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, are you sure what you said is true?" ”
It's really not because Fei Ran was suspicious of her at first, but because these news are too shocking!
"Before I entered the ...... Before we got married, we accidentally rescued a Nanban woman under a cliff, and later, we became close friends. That's what she told me. ”
Zhang Ran replied, but the expression on his face was a little obviously gloomy.
