It seems that because of the mention of sadness, the old man's entire eye socket has been moistened with tears.

Fei Ranchu didn't say anything, but he also sighed, which can be regarded as a relief to the old man in front of him!

The old man continued: "At that time, this story was spread throughout the village, some people claimed that there were ghosts in the village, and others said that the whole village was cursed with a terrible curse! ”

Hearing the word "curse", everyone's faces instantly became solemn

Fei Ran's heart knew that in such an era, science was not popular, and people were generally feudal and superstitious. Under such conditions, statements such as curses or witches can make people feel terrified the most.

"Old man, let's go in and talk! We hope you can tell us everything you know, so we can help you. Fei Ranchu had just stepped forward and wanted to help the old man up.

But before Fei Ranchu's hand touched the sleeve of the old man's shirt, he was interrupted by Zhao Yuqin's light cough.

And at this moment, she finally realized that something seemed wrong, this place is now ancient! Men and women are not close to each other, how can they learn from Lei Feng at will like in the 21st century and do good deeds without leaving a name?

After hearing Zhao Yuqin's light cough, the two secret guards who had been following from a distance hurriedly rushed forward, and one of them even threw the farmer who met at the entrance of the village on his shoulder into the courtyard at will, and ran back to support the old man who had lost his soul and was paralyzed.

When everyone entered the house, they found that there was still an old woman standing in the courtyard. The old woman, with a hoe in her hand, hid far away at the door of the house, looking nervously at the people who had just entered.

"You, who are you! Let him go! Otherwise...... Otherwise, I'll fight with you! ”

The old woman was obviously much more timid, and had been cowering and hiding in the doorway, not daring to move half a step. Even if he warns everyone with words, because of the fear and panic in his eyes, it is not deterrent.

And Fei Ranchu also probably guessed this in his heart, there must have been something that made the villagers very frightened here, so now, the farmers outside the village, and the old man and woman in this courtyard who are also frightened, their strange reactions must also have a reason.

Na Fei Ranchu naturally wouldn't blame their attitude, but she was desperate to know the truth. As far as she was concerned, she didn't come to this remote countryside to wander around.

She's in search of her son!

Her Hee Sung!

Of course, she still didn't want to believe any curses and other words. But since such a strange thing has appeared in this village, it is very likely that there are not ghosts, but someone is doing it. For the sake of her Xicheng, she must investigate this matter clearly.

The mood of the old man and the old woman had calmed down a lot, and the farmer he had met outside the village had also woken up, leaning against the corner without speaking.

Everyone sat in a cramped room, and the confined air made everyone who stayed together feel impetuous. There was a foul smell in the air from time to time, and Fei Ranchu took a closer look before she noticed that the food that had been placed in the kitchen was already a little moldy.

It seems that although the old couple is also throwing in the daily routine of cooking on the fire, they should not have gone out for a long time.

"Here's the thing...... the old man sighed as he spoke.

"A long time ago, our village was also very harmonious. Even with the bazaar, it is not as dilapidated as it is now. ”

The old man's tone was desolate, as if he had been reminiscing all along. The woman on the side seemed to have thought of something sad again, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

"But one day, a group of strangers came here. They were dressed in great luxury, and almost every one of them wore gold and silver, and looked like people from a foreign land. ”

Fei Ranchu listened quietly, but at the same time, he was also a little anxious in his heart. She doesn't want to know anything else in her heart now, what she wants to know most is Hee Sung's safety.

Among them, there was a celestial master surnamed Tang, who said that he had a way to make the whole village rich. At that time, although the people in the village were living happily. But after all, they are still self-sufficient, and all the villagers feel fresh and curious about the foreign gold and silver. ”

"Then why is it involved in children?" Fira kept thinking about it in her heart, and she just wanted to insert it directly. I knew the truth earlier. Zhao Yuqin also stretched out a hand, put it on Fei Ranchu's shoulder, patted her lightly twice, and signaled her not to worry.

The two seemed to be listening too carefully, and neither noticed anything was wrong. It's just that Zhang Ran, who has been silently watching everything from behind, sees all this in his eyes. frowned slightly, only to feel that the movements of the two people in front of him were very dazzling.

"And then?"

"Later, those people promised us that if we handed over the hair of some unmarried girls for them every month, they could help us make money in business, and promised that each of us could become a rich party."

Hearing this, Fei Ranchu only felt taken aback.

Why women's hair? And still want the hair of an unmarried girl?

But this time, Fei Ranchu held back the doubts in his heart and did not say it, but let the old man continue.

Most of the people in the village were still skeptical, but when that group of people appeared for the second time, they actually directly sent a heavy gold ingot to everyone in the village! This time, everyone seemed to have lost their minds and went back to cut their daughter's hair. If there is no girl in the family, he will secretly cut off the hair of other people's daughters at night. ”

Hearing this, Fei Ranchu had already sensed that something was not right. But carefully brushing down this detail, her mind was also a mess, and she didn't have a clue, she just felt that this thing was strange and abnormal, and it was very strange.

"In those days, everyone's eyes were full of gold, the land was deserted, and the business was gone. In order to get more bounties, everyone went to great lengths to cut their hair. I remember that there was a girl at that time, and in the middle of the night, her entire hair was cut off, and the next day she began to be heartbroken, and finally simply hanged herself. ”

Zhao Yuqin also clenched his fists, he only felt that there was a nameless fire running around in his heart, but he couldn't find an outlet for catharsis.

Money! Truly the damn thing in the world!

In Fei Ranchu's heart, it seemed that he had imagined the scene at that time. Everyone uses their hair as a good thing to exchange for money, and the girls are at their own risk.

Recalling what Concubine Cui did in the palace before, Fei Ran's heart was very clear in her heart, how important hair was to ancient women.

Human desire is really a sharp blade.

Alas......
