Volume 1 The New Official Takes Office Chapter 10 The Tiger's Mouth
Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji went out for a meal together early in the morning, and then drove to Hukou Village, before Yu Yinyu's understanding of Hukou Village was only limited, this is a very small village, and it is clear that this place is very remote, but only when I went there in person did I find that this is not just remote, it is said that birds do not are lifted, along the way the two do not know how many mountain roads that cars can not pass, and there are mountain people on the road to help cross, but the road in Hukou Village is in disrepair, and the vehicles have been unable to drive normally.
The two can only walk, along the way Yu Yinyu saw a lot of wild fruits, the environment and air of this place are still very good, no joke, Yu Yinyu even feels a little sweet, it seems that he belongs to this place, he has an urge to be deeply integrated with the land.
Noon.
The sun was like fire, and after walking for more than an hour, Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji were already exhausted, along the way, stop and go, just when Yu Yinyu's mentality was about to collapse, Lin Chaoji on the side suddenly patted him on the shoulder, Yu Yinyu didn't know why, I saw Lin Chaoji pointing ahead, and when I looked up, I saw three big characters "Hukou Village".
Yu Yinyu scolded in his heart, and almost screamed.
Damn, it's finally here.
Walking into the village, Yu Yinyu felt very weird, before entering the village, he still felt that the weather was very hot, but why did he feel a chill down his spine just after stepping in?
There seemed to be a gust of yin wind blowing around his body from nowhere, and Lin Chaoji on the side couldn't help but shudder, rubbed his arms, and scolded: "Why is this ghost place so cold?"
If you want to say that it is in a real high mountain, you just feel cold, but the location of Hukou Village is indeed not very high, but it is covered by various mountains, and there is a feeling that it will not see the sun all day long, but the sun is still common all day long, and the scorching sun is still in the sky at this moment, but the village is cloudy and windy, and an unprovoked sense of depression soon swelled in Yu Yinyu's heart, just now he was still sweating, but at this moment the sweat has dried, and the clothes are also attached to his back, which feels very sticky, which makes Yu Yinyu very uncomfortable.
The village and Yu Yinyu saw the same thing in Wang Changcheng's memory, but there were many people in the village at the beginning, but now this one is lifeless, and many houses have become very dilapidated, which makes him wonder if they will all collapse as long as a gust of wind blows.
"What's going on in this bird place?" Lin Chaoji shuddered, the current situation made him feel very bad.
Yu Yinyu shook his head, he didn't know, "Let's find a family to ask first, right?" But as soon as Yu Yinyu finished speaking, he realized a problem.
Is there still a human base in this place?
But this question had just crossed Yu Yinyu's mind, and soon he saw a small hut located on the mountainside, with puffs of cooking smoke wafting out, and the two looked at each other, did not speak, but walked towards the position on the mountainside.
Sure enough, this house is inhabited, and the road leading to the mountainside has obvious traces of being trampled, which belongs to the road formed by Mr. Lu Xun who said that there are more people walking.
Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji walked to the door of the house, Lin Chaoji stepped forward and knocked on the door, shouting: "Is there anyone? We are passing policemen, can we open the door and talk?"
Soon, Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji heard the sound of dishes and chopsticks being placed on the table from inside the house, and then a very slow step walked towards them.
It was an old woman who opened the door, and the moment they saw this old woman, Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji both gasped.
The old woman was pale, with heavy dark circles, she was at least ninety years old, and the skin on her whole face was severely sagging. But this is not the key, the key is that her hunchback has reached a level that Yu Yin and Lin Chaoji can't understand, and the whole person is like a snail, why do you say that? Because the old woman's back has an abnormal protrusion, which looks like some kind of tumor, coupled with the excessively curved back, it makes the old woman's appearance look very strange at the moment.
When the old woman saw Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji outside the door, she opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't understand what the old woman was talking about at first, because the Fujian dialect is very special, basically separated by a mountain, it gives people a feeling of a new language, but in eastern Mindong, there are basically some differences in tone, and they can still be recognized in general, but the old woman's voice is too small, which caused Yu Lin Chaoji and Yu Yinyu to have difficulties in language barrier at the beginning.
Until Lin Chaoji gently attached his ear to the old woman's mouth, he heard clearly that the old woman was saying, it was cold outside the house, let them come into the house to talk, Lin Chaoji couldn't cry or laugh, this old man is quite personal, even if she can't understand it, she can understand the general meaning, but just talking to herself there, she really doesn't have the ability to interpret it.
Entering the house, it was a lot warmer all of a sudden, Yu Yinyu looked carefully, this room is actually not small, there is a hall (dining room as one) and two rooms, both rooms are next to the right wall, the left side is directly to the outside, is a vegetable garden, and a little more to the side is the stove, and the fire is still burning at the moment, which is why the house is not cold. But what made Yu Yinyu curious was that one of the rooms on the right was locked, what was inside? But soon, Yu Yinyu dispelled the doubts in his heart, because there was a mourning platform in front of the hall, on which was a black and white photo of an old man, presumably the husband of the old woman.
In fact, the photos of the hall are very conspicuous, but Yu Yinyu didn't notice the front at first.
The old man looks like a very kind person, the age on the photo is about seventy years old, just when Yu Yinyu looked at the photo, suddenly, the old man in the photo winked at him, which frightened Yu Yinyu, and generally grabbed Lin Chaoji beside him, and said excitedly: "It's moving, it's moving!"
This sudden surprise startled Lin Chaoji, who was already a little confused, and the whole person jumped up and began to look around, "What moved? Where did it move?"
Yu Yinyu pointed to the photo in front of him, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of the old woman with a confused face, so he had to smile awkwardly, and then attached it to Lin Chaoji's ear and said, "The old man in the photo just now, he moved." ”
If it was placed in the past, Lin Chaoji would definitely scold Yu Yinyu for being stupid, but now he can be regarded as having seen Yu Yinyu's ability, he has no doubt that Yu Yinyu is also feeling numb at the moment, although he has not seen it with his own eyes, but Guan is terrifying enough when he hears it.
calmed down a little, Yu Yin said in his heart that he couldn't leave the old woman aside anymore, he had to get to the point quickly, and then leave quickly, this place was too strange.
"Grandma, we are the police in the city, and we want to ask you something. Yu Yin said in the dialect of Mindong.
The old woman did not hear clearly, and asked, "What do you say?"
......The old man behind his ears and the young man roaring, although they are very stupid, can only follow suit at this time, so Yu Yinyu made his hand look like a horn, put it next to his mouth, and shouted: "We are here to ask you something, is it convenient for you to answer?"
The old woman now heard clearly, and said, "Ask what you want." ”
"Old man, do you know what happened to Wang Yongming's family?"
The old woman didn't hear clearly, and asked, "Who?"
Yu Yinyu was full of strength again and shouted: "I said do you know what happened to Wang Yongming's family?"
The old woman's face changed instantly after hearing this, from the initial indifference to frightened, and from frightened to nervous, she closed her eyes, folded her hands, and hurriedly chanted in her mouth: "Amitabha, Amitabha." ”
Now Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji are stunned again, what is the situation?
"Old man, what's wrong with this Wang Yongming's family?" Yu Yinyu hurriedly pulled and prayed to the old woman, the old woman looked around, and finally put her eyes on the old man's photo, and stared at it for a while, she suddenly returned to normal from the crazy state just now, and said to Yu Yinyu: "This name, you can't mention it." ”
Hah? Can't mention the name? Is this Wang Yongming Voldemort? Yu Yinyu complained in his heart.
"Why?" Lin Chaoji is not a "person who will die if he doesn't complain," and hurriedly asked.
The old woman looked around again, as if she was watching out for someone, which made Yu Yinyu and Lin Chaoji very uncomfortable, as if there were other people around them looking at them.
But Yu Yinyu knows in his heart that there are no ghosts around here, if there is, he can see it, of course, except for the ghost of Wang Changcheng, who has been following Yu Yinyu, his soul will become very strange when he automatically arrives here, and Yu Yinyu can't say anything wrong, but if he has to say it, he doesn't seem to be as stupid as before?
But looking at Wang Changcheng's sluggish appearance, Yu Yinyu still dispelled this idea.
Delusion, this must be an illusion.
The old woman's voice was originally very small, but now that she was speaking, she lowered her voice again, and Yu Yinyu and the others took a lot of effort to hear what she was saying clearly.
"I can't mention it, this Wang Yongming's family has violated the taboo and angered the gods. ”
Yu Yinyu was speechless, isn't this nonsense? This is a god who has escaped from her own life, God is still her own boss, what god dares to do such a thing, and God can tolerate him? Although she doesn't seem to believe in God when she listens to this old man's thoughts, of course, Yu Yinyu also knows that the God she knows and the traditional God are not the same concept.
"They have angered the gods?" Yu Yinyu asked, "Why do you say that?"
The old woman said, "Because all of them died, it was because they angered the gods, and the gods were angry that they cursed their family, and they did not die well!"
Yu Yinyu secretly slandered, I can't die well? I'll go, how much enmity does this god have with Wang Yongming's family? As for cursing other people's families for not dying well?
"Then how did they anger the gods?" Yu Yinyu didn't seem to be trying to investigate the situation of Wang Chang'an's family at the moment, but more because of his curiosity about the incident itself.
The old woman pointed to the bench next to her, motioning for them to sit down and talk, there was a sense of déjà vu that was about to be spoken, Yu Yinyu glanced at the food on the table, and said in her heart that she would not eat it, it seems that the old man's love for telling stories is true, and this story does not seem to be short.
After the two of them sat down on the bench, the old woman spoke.
