Chapter 223: Investigation of the cause of death
Zhang Zewen and I roughly guessed who these two men were.
However, the cause of the village chief's death made us a little unpredictable.
After all, if black and white impermanence wants to take people, there is no need to be so troublesome at all, can't you just hook the soul away, why let the village chief hang himself?
In the countryside, this is unruly, and the rural people attach great importance to it, believing that people must hit the ground with their dead heels, face to the sky, and blind eyes to death, otherwise they will never live.
This kind of death is indeed too vicious.
"This practice is too vicious, and this village chief doesn't have any deep hatred, as for treating people like this?" When the man saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned, his face was pale, and he was also very concerned about what was taboo in the village.
We hurriedly took the village chief off the beam, and at this moment the village chief had already lost his breath, and Zhang Zewen and I looked at each other.
This matter is obviously not right.
When the people in the village heard the news, they gathered one after another, and there were few people at the beginning, but in an instant, the village chief's house was surrounded by groups.
"What's the matter, as soon as you came, something happened to the village chief, you must have deliberately killed the village chief!" I don't know where the women came from, and they just splashed dirty water on us.
But fortunately, Zhang Zewen and I have a good ability to resist pressure, and we are used to such words.
"It must be you, don't think that if you cut your hair and change your clothes, we won't be impressed, you are those Taoist priests who know witchcraft, you died as soon as you came to our village, and now you will directly kill the village chief, if you want me to say, you will be burned to death, this day is high and the emperor is far away, and no one knows if you are dead!" At this moment, another woman opened her mouth and accused us of nonsense.
I really almost wanted to quarrel at that time, obviously there were other people watching us come in together, and it was not clear whether the village chief was killed by us.
But these villagers are simply chaotic.
I was extremely unhappy, and the man who originally came in with us also hurriedly helped explain, "This matter has nothing to do with them, we went in together, the village chief died strangely, and several of us also saw it, and indeed there were two strange men before the village chief's house, and they didn't come out of the village chief's room, so they saw that the village chief had an accident, and most of them had something to do with these two people." ”
Hearing this, I finally felt much more comfortable.
Fortunately, in this well village, not everyone has a problem with their IQ, and there are also smart people.
It is estimated that this man has some status in the village, and as soon as he said this, the villagers who were still chattering towards me and burning us to the ground immediately shut up.
Seeing that the villagers had stopped, I said, "I will investigate the cause of the village chief's death, but I hope that all the villagers of Shuijing Village, if you really want to know the cause of the village chief's death, you must cooperate with me." ”
I said this very strongly, and the villagers looked embarrassed, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Before the villagers had dispersed, a woman came outside, and when she saw that we were all gathered inside, the whole person was stunned.
"What are you all doing around my house!" She looked at everyone with an embarrassed face, I have seen her, she is the woman of the village chief, and she directly brought us tea and water.
She also guessed that something was wrong, and rushed in like crazy, and saw the corpse of the village chief covered with a white cloth lying on the ground.
She cried out, crying, heartbreaking, and looking very uncomfortable, and she cried, "What's going on! Who told me! It's not like I'm fine when I go out, how can I say it's gone! ”
When the man saw the village chief's daughter-in-law crying, he told her what had happened.
But the village chief's daughter-in-law's first reaction was to look at me and Zhang Zewen, her eyes were full of hatred, and she pointed at our noses and scolded, "It's all you!" You've killed him! You pay for my life! ”
The village chief's woman was so grieved that she completely lost her mind and threw herself directly at us.
Fortunately, there were many people in the village, so they hurriedly stopped her, thinking that she was too sad, and hurriedly sent her to the home of the barefoot doctor.
The people in the village gradually dispersed, and Zhang Zewen and I stayed at the hanged position of the village chief, and the two of us looked at each other directly.
Zhang Zewen frowned slightly, and asked me in an extremely serious tone, "What do you think is going on with this?" ”
"If the description is correct, you should use the power of the Yin Division to let black and white impermanence come out and talk, but ...... Zhang Heng didn't know where he went, and Bai Xiao and Zhang Yao didn't see anyone either, so they were afraid that this matter would be delayed. "I also spoke out about my concerns.
Zhang Zewen suddenly reached out and patted me on the shoulder, and said in a gentle tone, "Don't worry about this, if Bai Xiao and Zhang Yao hadn't found anyone, they would have come back a long time ago, just like our actions, didn't we just come back because we didn't find anyone?" ”
"It makes sense, so to speak, they should have found Zhang Heng, and they haven't come back mostly to communicate." It dawned on me.
Zhang Zewen nodded, "The matter of the village chief is closely related to Zhang Heng's former residence, we should dig it out, what happened here, Chen Tian, don't you think it's strange?" The village chief has always been alive and well, and when we came, he asked him to take us to his former residence, and when he came back, he died, and there must be something wrong with this. ”
Originally, I didn't notice this problem, but when Zhang Zewen said this, I really felt a little strange.
I didn't say a word, and hurriedly wrote down the talisman and called the land lord over.
After about ten minutes, the local landlord staggered towards us.
"The little one has seen the Emperor Xudu!" The land lord looked at me submissively.
It is estimated that for thousands of years, the first Emperor Xudu who came to see the land in person belonged to me.
At this moment, the land lord looked at me with a frightened face, as if he was afraid that I would take his life.
I hurriedly spoke, "Since you are the local land of Shuijing Village, you should know all the things that are born here, I heard that there are always two people from the village chief's family who come to visit, one black and one white, but black and white are impermanent? ”
Lord Di shook his head, "No, it's not them!" Black and white impermanence is very busy, where is the time to go to this poor and remote place! ”
"And who are they? How do you listen to the people in the village and dress like black and white? I asked, confused.
The face of the land lord at this moment was extremely embarrassed, as if he was in a dilemma, I looked at him with a straight look, and the land lord looked at me with a weak heart and said, "Emperor, I can say this, but you have to promise me that I must save my life." ”
Looking at the appearance of the land lord, it seems that he is very afraid of the other party's power.
I frowned and asked very suspiciously, "Could it be that the other party's power is more powerful than Yinsi?" ”
The land lord said helplessly, "This village has long been targeted, after all, this is the former residence of Zhang Daoling's descendants, the famous Zhang Heng lived here, and the people of the Zhang family here are not ordinary people, they have been guarding a secret for thousands of years, no one knows this secret, of course I don't know, I just know that if the secret is known, their family will die." As for the two black and white people, it is said that they were the two black and white boys set up by the person who sat down on this ancestral teaching. ”
When I heard this, I was stunned, and it was completely out of my control.
"Black and white boy?" Zhang Zewen and I asked in unison.
Lord Di nodded, "It's true, black and white boy!" That is something set up by the ancestors of the Zhang family, if the Zhang family fails to guarantee the four rules of the ancestral training, in that case, the Zhang family will definitely die! ”
I thought about it carefully, and the first thing the village chief's daughter-in-law said when she saw me just now was that we killed the village chief, but she knew the secret of this.
I asked the land lord curiously, "Anyway...... There is a mountain temple in this back mountain, do you know about this? ”
The land lord was stunned, "Did you go to the back mountain?" That place was not a mountain temple before, it was a tiger temple, and it was actually said that the ancestor of the Zhang family was rescued by a tiger, and then built this temple, but this temple has rules and must be sealed to be effective, and then changed the name to the mountain temple. It is also very strange to say that after the tiger saved the village chief, he disappeared inexplicably, and within a few days, the village chief married his daughter-in-law. ”
