Chapter 145: Two Strange Things
When Lao Yu said these words, his voice was weak, and the decadent expression on his face was fully revealed.
When Zhang Kailong heard this, he couldn't help but interject and asked, "Since you have consciousness, why do you have to eat frogs!" ”
Lao Yu smiled bitterly: "You think I want to!" Usually I feel sick when I see frogs, but at that time I can't help myself! ”
Chen Laosan also smiled and said to Zhang Kailong: "Captain Zhang, this thing is even more powerful than a piece, if it is a piece, as long as you are strong-willed, you can quit it, but Gu poison is poison!" Once you get hit, if no one helps you solve the Gu, the only way that is not under his control is to die quickly, and sometimes you can't even do it if you want to die! ”
Zhang Kailong shrugged his shoulders and said that he understood, and the three of them continued to listen to Lao Yu.
Lao Yu said that according to the old man's plan, in a few months, the Gu worms in his body would be digested, and then he would become a free body.
But at this time, something happened!
Strange to say, the old man hadn't been here for more than a month before the accident. The last time he came was a month before, and he solemnly told the old woman that he was going to do something more important, which had been pressing him for fifty years......
As soon as I heard this, I immediately thought of my uncle and grandson.
Could it be that the old man in his mouth is my uncle and grandson? Thinking about it like this, it is really possible, that night Uncle Shi was in a hurry, and before leaving in a hurry, he told him that he was going to Xiaohe Village to do something, and at that time I thought that the Xiaohe Village in his mouth was Xiaohe Village, which was five or six miles away from Laomiao Village, and I didn't know that there was a village with the same name fifty miles away.
At that time, when I saw all of them, I didn't say what I thought.
At first, Lao Yu didn't know what was going on with this Gu poison and Gu worms, but later he learned that Gu worms were a kind of worms specially cultivated by people who raised Gu, and Gu poison was more powerful than ordinary poisons, in addition to controlling people's life and death, he could also control people's spirits.
He couldn't imagine that among the people he came into contact with, who had this himself, could unknowingly give Gu to another person.
Later, Lao Yu knew in his heart that the person who had fallen into Gu should be the high priest, he had given Gu to at least half of the people in the village under the banner of saving people, and he would still come to the village regularly until now.
Lao Yu also summed up the time when the high priest came to the village every time: he must come in the three seasons of Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and New Year every year, and other times may only occasionally come on the first or fifteenth day of each month.
But a few days ago, the high priest suddenly appeared at Lao Yu's house, and he discovered the secret that he knew the truth about raising Gu and going down to Gu.
As punishment, the high priest forced Lao Yu to swallow a thumb-sized insect egg and gave his daughter a Gu.
……
Hearing Lao Yu mention the high priest, my heart is a sigh, this yin and yang strange person is like an unpredictable prophet, he has met me three times in just a few days, it seems to be a coincidence, but can there really be such a coincidence in the world!
What puzzles me the most is why he appeared in Laomiao Village? Could it be that you also want to play tricks on the neighbors of Laomiao Village?
Lao Yu confessed that just three days ago, the high priest led the little boy wrapped in his body to the village again, and told everyone that two days later, a vision would fall from the sky, and there would be a magical landscape of the tengu eating the moon, which was the goddess of the Yellow River who was angry and needed to hold a gathering ceremony.
Of course, he has a set of demagogic rhetoric, perhaps because the villagers of this small river village have seen and experienced too many tragic things, and they vaguely feel as if there is a god punishing them, so they naturally believe the nonsense of "the river god is angry".
Lao Yu's daughter has also been poisoned by Gu and ran away from home in a delirium, and the high priest threatens Lao Yu that if he dares to say all this, he will never want to see his daughter in this life.
Lao Yu is simply furious, if he doesn't have a daughter, for the sake of the neighbors of Xiaohe Village, even if he fights for this old life, this will expose the old wizard's lies, but now he is angry and dare not speak, and there is nowhere to do it!
For the sake of his daughter, Lao Yu had to swallow his anger, pretending not to know anything, and led everyone to gather together with several prestigious old men in the village.
Lao Yu only remembered that the high priest saw the seventy or eighty people gathered, with a sinister expression on his face, and then took out a small drum and beat it "bang", Lao Yu felt that the drum sound was very pleasant......
When he woke up again, it was our first encounter at the Yellow River dam yesterday morning.
Zhang Kailong still habitually asked about Lao Yu's daughter's situation.
It turns out that the old is the old girl, and the girl is exactly twenty years old this year, and the father and daughter have depended on each other for their lives over the years.
A few people walked outside the house while talking, and Lao Yu took a few small horses.
Zhang Kailong asked about the situation of other families in the village, and Lao Yu shook his head again and again, and replied:
"In the past few years, strange things have happened in the village, and people have realized that they and the people around them are abnormal, but there is no way to do it.
Although I have the name of a village party secretary, he is also very unfamiliar with the current Xiaohe Village. ”
Lao Yu gave us a brief introduction to the situation in the village, and the two things he said made me very suspicious.
First of all, in the past few years, several young women and girls in the village from 18 to 9 to early 20 have suddenly contracted a strange disease, which the villagers call "soft foot disease".
When they first got sick, they also went to the hospitals in the town and the district town, and the team of doctors took turns to see them over and over again, one consultation today, one expert diagnosis tomorrow, a lot of money was spent, and a lot of medicine was eaten, but these people's legs and feet became more and more weak, and they had no choice but to be discharged from the hospital!
Later, a few people who got sick simply stopped going to the hospital, because they all knew that it was useless to go.
At first, the sick person only had weak legs and feet, and then he was paralyzed directly in bed, and after a while, he became a vegetative person, unable to move any other part of his body except for his eyes.
Lao Yu inadvertently reminded me of a sentence, he said that these sick people eat a lot, but their bodies are getting thinner and thinner day by day, as if the nutrients in their bodies have been absorbed.
I think there is something wrong with the disease itself, perhaps it was operated by the man who called himself the High Priest.
Another very strange thing is that in recent years, children in this village have often died, as old as seven or eight years old, as young as a few months, all of them were originally fine, and suddenly their eyes turned white, and they immediately lost consciousness.
Even weirder things are happening later.
Under normal circumstances, such a large child would not be buried in his ancestral grave after death, especially girls.
There is a depression of several hundred square meters in the south of the village, which is said to be a crater, in which no grass grows, and over time it has become a common "garbage dump" in the village.
Not only household garbage, but also dead puppies and kittens, and even the placenta of raw calves and lambs are thrown here.
The children who died in the village were also secretly buried in this depression, but strange things happened. When the calf of a family in the village was missing, the men of the family searched everywhere, and when they passed through the depression, they saw five or six pits in the ground, and in the pit there was a coffin for a child broken in half.
The news soon spread throughout the village, and several daring people, especially the families of the dead children, went to see the scene, and they also admitted that the pits were the same as the graves where the child's body was buried.
If this is the end of this matter, it is actually not very weird, after all, there are a lot of stray dogs! I'm so hungry that I might be able to do something like this.
Even more bizarre goosebumps happened two months later.
One night, her daughter-in-law (the mother of a four-year-old boy who died two months ago) suddenly heard a child crying outside the house, crying and shouting "Mom!" Mom! ”
The daughter-in-law of the Cao family thought that she had heard it wrong, and it was not uncommon for her to become ill.
But after a few seconds, the voice was still there, she subconsciously listened carefully, and the whole soul exploded when she heard it, this is her child's voice! You can't get it wrong when you're a mother. At that moment, she rushed out the door like crazy, but the sound disappeared.
There is another equally strange thing in the village, that is, when I came home late from farming, I saw a black shadow of about one meter at the entrance of the village flashing and burrowing into the field on the side......
When such a rumor first started, most people didn't believe it, saying that it might be a big dog, and you didn't see it clearly. Later, a few more people said that they had seen it, and even one surnamed Hu looked clear that this black shadow was actually a child.
As he spoke, before he knew it, it was getting dark, Zhang Kailong looked at his watch, and it was already half past seven.
"Old Yu, don't worry! There is such a big case in the village, our district public security bureau will never ignore it, it's not early today, we have to go back first, you can wait at home tomorrow! ”
After saying that, we stood up and waved goodbye to Lao Yu.
Lao Yu also returned to normal at this time, with an embarrassed expression on his face, and muttered: "It's not convenient for me to keep you for dinner now, so please poop......"
We left Lao Yu's house and walked out of the village along the winding streets of Xiaohe Village, and along the way we met several villagers, who seemed to be very preoccupied, all of them lowered their heads, and did not look up even if they passed us.
Chen Laosan whispered to the two of us: "See, the people in this village are not growing!" I'm afraid that the Gu worms in my body have already attacked! ”
I was about to reply, when I looked up and saw a strange child lying on an abandoned mud house not far in front of us.
