At the same time, when I contacted what my uncle had done recently, he had actually been helping Ma Weiguo and Ma Weiguo, that is, doing things for those gray-robed Taoist priests.

So, killing all the cats in the village is also doing things for those gray-robed Taoist priests?

"Er Fat, do you suspect that those Taoist priests are not human?" I asked, remembering the appearance of those Taoist thieves and rats, and I felt panicked.

Erfat nodded, and he said again: "Those Taoist priests live in the village, and they have to consume a lot of food, and the things in our village are not enough to eat. Generally, Ma Er's kid is responsible for going out to purchase, and I suspected it at the time and followed Ma Er. Boss, guess what he went out to buy? ”

"What?"

"Those Taoist priests don't eat at all, they only eat walnuts, fried peanuts and melon seeds."

Erpang is right, when I went to the brigade courtyard, I did see those Taoist priests eating nuts all the time. After the second fat finished speaking, he took out a walnut shell from his pocket, he handed the walnut shell to me, and said, "Boss, this is what I picked up in the courtyard of the brigade, you see!" ”

I took the walnut shell and couldn't help but be stunned.

The walnut shell is very hard, and you have to break the walnut kernel to eat it, but the walnut shell that Er Fat gave me is very strange, there is only a hole in the thickness of a finger on the top, and the walnut kernels inside have all been removed. Most of the walnuts in the countryside that were stolen by rats were found in this way.

The second fat lowered his voice, and said with an extremely ugly face: "Boss, do you believe that rats will become sperm?" ”

When I was fighting with the lame horse, I had even seen the yellow skin essence, would I believe this? So, when Er Fat asked me this, I didn't hesitate at all and nodded.

Er Fat said again: "Boss, you said that if the villagers all knew that these Taoist priests were not Taoist priests at all, but rat spirits, would they still move the grave?" ”

"Of course not, I think everyone will come up with rat medicine!" I said.

This seems to be an opportunity to turn the tide.

However, after thinking about it carefully, I think that based on what Er Fat and I have mastered so far, we can't be 100% sure that those Taoist priests are rat essences, and they may not necessarily believe it when they tell the villagers. Erfat said that it was okay, he had a way, just wait for us to verify it.

I asked him how to verify it, and he said it was a secret, and I would find out later.

It was noon, and the villagers had not yet gone to work in the fields, and most of them were taking a nap, so the village was very secluded. The two of us went to the brigade courtyard, and when we arrived, the second fat grabbed the wall and suddenly made a "meow" sound.

Not to mention, Erfat learned quite similarly.

Authentic Chinese pastoral little wildcat.

It turns out that this is the method of verification that Er Fat said. I hid not far away, staring at the courtyard of the brigade, and those Taoist priests were also taking a lunch break when they were full of food and drink.

Erfat learned a few cat meows in a row, and if they were really rats, they would definitely be shocked. However, the gray-robed Taoist priests inside didn't react at all, they didn't seem to be afraid of this.

I heard that someone seemed to be coming nearby, and I had no choice but to sneak away quietly with Er Fat.

I really didn't expect that when I thought it would be a certainty, it was not verified. But if they weren't rats, then my uncle was doing something for them, so why did he kill all the cats in the village?

Things suddenly became confusing, I used to hear my grandfather tell the story of the old society, and he also said that no matter what became the essence, he would still be afraid of natural enemies, which was a kind of natal suppression. Mice are afraid of cats, chickens are afraid of weasels, I have seen with my own eyes, the most ferocious rooster in the house, often run to other houses to grab chicken food, scared other chickens dare to watch nearby, very domineering, but, after it saw the weasel, it was still so frightened that it lay on the ground and did not dare to move.

Could it be that we really thought wrong, those Taoist priests are not rat essences at all?

I didn't know, so I had to go and ask Lady Wang, who is now my only backing. When she saw Mrs. Wang, she thought that I had asked her about my grandfather again, so she said that although ten days and a half months were very fast, I still had to wait patiently for an opportunity, and when the right opportunity came, it was time for me to propose to my future daughter-in-law again.

It's strange to say that I've been dreaming about it lately. I always dream of her dressed in red, and they all say that I think about her day and night, I obviously don't think about her, why does she appear in my dreams?

I even began to wonder, what did she look like behind that red veil?

Is it really as the king said?

Thinking about this, I was a little distracted.

Mrs. Wang coughed, and I came back to my senses, and she asked me to tell her about our village and my uncle, and I told her the truth, and took out the walnut shell and showed it to her.

After reading it, she didn't say anything immediately.

After a while, she said, "Son, go and find your uncle now, and get a hair of him." ”

"My uncle's hair, what do you want this for?" I asked, feeling a little curious.

"You just take it, don't ask so much first, time is pressing." After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she muttered again: "I'm afraid the affairs of your old Jieling Village can't be suppressed!" ”

"What can't be suppressed?"

"It's nothing, you go back first!" After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she went back to the house and left me alone in the living room. I really don't understand, what does Mrs. Wang want to do with her hair, I just remember that my grandfather once asked me to make a paper figure with my hair, but Mrs. Wang shouldn't be my uncle's paper man, right?

I can't figure it out, so I can only do it.

Returning from Dongwa Village, I went straight to my uncle's house. The door of the uncle's house was bolted from the inside, and I heard something in the uncle's house, as if there was some movement, but I couldn't hear it clearly from a distance, as if there were others in the house. I don't care so much, I knock on the door and call my uncle, but after shouting for a long time, I shouldn't be inside.

When I was about to climb over the wall and go in, I heard the sound of the door of the upper house in the courtyard opening, and the uncle said impatiently: "Yiwa, what's the matter with you?" ”

"Uncle, open the door, I'll talk to you about something, and I'll leave after that." I said.

Uncle opened the door, and I saw that he was sweating profusely, his eye sockets were deep, and his dark circles were very heavy, and he looked very tired. "Yiwa, what can you say, hurry up and leave after speaking, I'll have something to do later."

"Uncle, are you alright?" I couldn't help but ask him, he looked so weird that it made me a little worried. Moreover, I stood at the door, and he did not mean to let me in, and even held the door with both hands, as if he was afraid that I would enter the courtyard.

The uncle was a little impatient and prepared to close the door.

I hurriedly stopped and said, "Uncle, wait a minute! You've got gray hair, I'll pluck it for you! ”

He was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, I reached over and pulled off a small handful of hair. He was stunned in pain and said angrily: "Yiwa, what are you doing?" ”

I laughed dryly and said, "It's nothing, uncle, you go back and rest, I'll go first." ”

Holding my uncle's hair, I went straight to the house of the king god-in-law.

When she arrived at the house of the king goddess, she immediately pulled out a yellow rune paper from the drawer. There was no cinnabar pattern on the yellow rune paper, and she asked me to put my uncle's hair on the yellow rune paper.

I did so, and then I saw a strange scene.

After the hair touched the yellow rune paper, it seemed to come to life, and writhed on the yellow rune paper. Soon, the hair began to shrank as if it had been roasted by fire, and I smelled a burning smell, and then it turned to ashes.

I asked the goddess what does this mean?

Mrs. Wang sighed and said, "Child, it seems that I guessed correctly, your uncle is haunted by evil things, and I am afraid that his life will not be long." ”

"Haunted by evil things, what the hell is going on?" I asked.

"He killed all the cats in your village, probably not for those Taoist priests, but for the one in his family." Wang Shenpo said.

When I thought about it, I remembered the situation of my uncle when I went to see him just now. He used to let me into the house and bring me something to eat. It just now blocked me out of the door, and there must have been something in the house. According to the previous incident, I am afraid that the one in the uncle's house is the rat spirit.

However, the uncle didn't provoke anyone, how could he suddenly invite evil things?

Wang Shenpo explained, saying that people are generally most likely to be haunted by evil things when they are more depressed. Naturally, my uncle was targeted because he was too depressed before. However, even if it is explained in this way, this matter is too coincidental, but at this juncture of moving the grave.

"Granny Wang, I know you have a way, you save him!"

Goddess Wang stood up, as if trying to figure out a way.

After waiting for a while, she said, "In this way, your uncle likes to drink, and if you give him a bottle of good wine, he should not refuse." However, I don't know if this method will work or not, it depends on his own creation. Remember, don't startle the snake, it will hurt your uncle. ”

I understood this, so I nodded, presumably the bottle of wine of the Wang Shenpo is definitely not ordinary wine.

Afterwards, Mrs. Wang brought a bottle of wine from the house that looked very high-end, and it was not a bargain at first glance. Of course, I was banned from drinking by my grandfather since I was a child, and I didn't know how to drink alcohol, and I didn't know what the price was.

After getting the bottle of wine, I immediately went back to the village and went to find my uncle.

It just so happened that I met my uncle halfway through, and he wanted to walk around me as soon as he saw me. I hurried over and asked him where he was going, and he said that the peanuts and melon seeds at home were gone, and he went out to buy some so that he could drink them.

Uncle, a person who is addicted to alcohol, naturally saw the good wine in my hand, was stunned for a moment, and asked, "What are you doing with a bottle of wine?" ”

"This wine was given by my friend, you know I can't drink, or I'll give it to you!" I said, Uncle naturally knew that I couldn't drink alcohol since I was a child, so he didn't hesitate and took the wine.

"These four or five hundred and one bottles!" He said.

I touched the back of my head and said, "I don't understand that." ”

Later, he asked what happened in the afternoon, and I said that it was nothing, but I still wanted to persuade him. Hearing this, the uncle shook his head and said, "You don't have to persuade me in this matter, don't interfere, just protect yourself and take care of your grandfather." ”

"Why?" I asked.

"Lots of nonsense, gone!" The uncle took the wine, turned around and left. I asked him again, but he didn't bother me anymore. Mrs. Wang said that I couldn't startle the snake, and I didn't dare to act rashly, so I had to give up for the time being, I could only hope that the bottle of good wine given by Mrs. Wang could play a role and save my uncle.

However, I didn't expect to hear a piece of news from the villagers early the next morning that I couldn't accept.
