26: True Terror
I didn't find the corpse rat and the soul eater chicken at Uncle Qin's house, let me go and talk to him, no problem.
The truth is that when a person's terrible secret is discovered, it is impossible to remain calm when confronted with it.
I found that Uncle Qin was not as kind as I imagined, and he was also a very hidden person, I was afraid of him, and I didn't know what to say when facing him.
I was afraid that Uncle Qin, who was smiling at me a second ago, saying that he was desperate to help me, would clean me up with unimaginable means in a blink of an eye.
"I'm not going, I'm going to you."
"Yo, didn't you like to run towards him before? Why don't you run away now? ”
Xu Buhuo looked at me with a smile, my face was hot for a while, knowing that Xu Buhuo was even better than I imagined.
When I went to find Uncle Qin before, I thought it was quite hidden, but now it seems that he already knows. At the same time, I also understood that it was no accident that I met Xu Buhuo at the door of Uncle Qin's house before, he had long been eyeing Uncle Qin, and he had always known that I had a secret connection with Uncle Qin, but he didn't break anything.
Ginger is always old and spicy.
That's right, in the face of Xu Buhuo, I'm still too tender.
"It's okay not to go, unless you want your grandmother to go to the funeral, or before the funeral, I believe now you also know who he is, those things before are not easy to say by him, but if he did it, then the next thing is the main thing, let you go to drag him, so that he can't secretly prepare before your grandmother comes out of the coffin."
Everything that happened in front of me was a headache, grandma stopped mourning for seven days, and everything was fine when she was buried, and I also wanted her to be able to mourn safely, so I could only take a flashlight and walk out of the courtyard.
On the way, I kept reminding myself to be calm, not to let Uncle Qin see the flaws, and at the same time planning what to say when the time comes, after all, it is almost eight o'clock, and there are still many hours until twelve o'clock.
When I arrived at the gate of Uncle Qin's courtyard, I was in a dilemma, and Uncle Qin's voice suddenly came from inside the courtyard, "Who, whoever is outside, come in if you want to come in." ”
When I entered the house and saw that it was me, Uncle Qin beckoned me to sit down while coughing dryly, and asked me if there was something wrong with coming so late.
"I'm in a panic, come and talk to you, uncle."
"Well, if there is anything you can't figure out, just say it, Uncle will do his best to help you."
What to say?
I didn't speak, the atmosphere in the room couldn't help but be a little quiet, thinking about it left and right, I thought of Liu Lezi, who died strangely, and talked about the black handprints on his body, and wanted to see if Uncle Qin knew the black handprints that could kill people.
"That handprint, you don't mention it, I forgot it, I saw it once, and that was eighteen years ago."
Uncle Qin paused, looked at me and said, "When Jiang Yan died, I saw a pair of black handprints on the beam of the house where she was hanging. ”
Jiang Yan's death is also related to black handprints?
I couldn't help but be nervous, and at the same time a little puzzled, because my grandmother said that Jiang Yan committed suicide before, and there was no mention of black handprints, which means that she didn't find black handprints.
If the deaths of grandpa and father are also related to black handprints, I think if she sees black handprints, she will never say that Jiang Yan committed suicide.
"At that time, you were not born, I don't know, I was actually the first person to find out that Jiang Yan committed suicide, the sky was just dawning, I couldn't sleep, I got up and wandered, just arrived at the gate of Jiang Yan's house, I saw her fall on the beam, the stunned eyes just looked at the gate of the courtyard, scared me out, I entered the house and saw a pair of black handprints on the beam, and when I called the people in the village, the black handprints had disappeared."
It turned out that this was the case, I slowly relaxed, and I rushed to go after knowing that my grandmother was in the village, except for Uncle Qin who saw the black handprint, no one else saw it, and it was the truth that the black handprint was not mentioned.
The black handprint is a life-urging talisman, which appeared at the scene of Jiang Yan's suicide, so that I couldn't tell whether Jiang Yan committed suicide or was victimized by the black handprint.
It stands to reason that if it was a black handprint, why did she wear a red dress when she died?
Grandma's collection of books says: When you die, the red clothes are matched with the corpse, and the soul is not in the earth and the sky is not collected.
This is said that when a person dies, if he wears red clothes, his soul can easily become a ghost, and this kind of rumor is found in almost every place. In addition, grandma said that when she saw Jiang Yan for the first time, she saw that Jiang Yan was very angry, and combined with a red dress, she committed suicide for resentment.
If this is the case, what role does the black handprint play in it?
"By the way, I heard Xiao Wang next door say, you came to me yesterday?" Uncle Qin suddenly asked.
This question made my whole heart immediately raised, nodded stubbornly, and said, "I'll come to see if you're better, wait for a while and you'll go back." ”
"I see, I'm going to ask you if you know who made those dung balls in the corner of the yard, they smell so strange, they smell like corpses."
"Didn't you get those dung balls?"
I subconsciously blurted out, and when I opened my mouth, I regretted it.
"It's not that you don't know, I just have a few chickens." Uncle Qin didn't seem to notice anything.
As this matter was clarified, the decision that had become clear in my mind suddenly became confused.
I thought that the corpse rats kneeling around Jiang Yan's grave were raised by Uncle Qin, but now he said that he didn't raise them, and he didn't know how the corpse rat's feces could run into the yard, which showed that the corpse rats were indeed not kept by him.
Am you wrong?
"Ziwu, seeing that you look like you have something on your mind, it can't be that you have something to hide from your uncle, right? If you want to say it quickly, I'll tell you something you definitely didn't expect, about Mr. Xu in your house. ”
What about Xu Buhuo?
I was very curious, and in my eagerness, I almost didn't think much about it, and I told Xu Buhuo yesterday and his analysis and speculation.
"He said a ball."
As soon as he finished saying that the chickens in the yard were soul devouring chickens, Uncle Qin slapped the table angrily, which scared me.
Because of the excessive force, Uncle Qin coughed uncomfortably. It took a while for him to calm down, his face was red and his eyes were glaring, and he was very angry.
"What soul-swallowing chickens don't swallow soul-swallowing chickens, those chickens are called golden-eyed chickens, and a friend of mine at the beach got them for me to raise, do you know why those chickens eat blood and not insects? Because the golden-eyed chicken was born on the seaside, it is used to eating fishy things such as fish and shrimp, and does not eat anything else, which is why I often go to the small river outside the village to fish, and the fish caught are all fed to the golden-eyed chicken. ”
Uncle Qin was so angry that he coughed for a few more minutes before he continued: "Blood is bloody, the fish and eels that are slaughtered on weekdays, I throw them into the chicken pen when they are all bloody, can chickens still tell what kind of blood it is like people?" I haven't been fishing for a few days because of my injury, and the golden-eyed chickens are dying of hunger, and the smell of blood is not what you see? ”
The confusion of chickens eating blood is also clearly explained here.
I know that Uncle Qin likes fishing, and I didn't see him squatting by the small river outside the village, I always thought that he was fishing for himself to eat, but I didn't expect that he was fishing to raise chickens.
"What about the corpse rat's?"
"How else can you explain it, since he can meet you outside the door, it means that he has noticed that you are in contact with me a long time ago, and knows that I am helping you behind my back, and I don't know where to get the corpse rat feces and put it in the yard, and then I see that the golden-eyed chicken is a little weird, so he made up these things to blind you, wanting to separate our relationship, so that you believe in him and doubt me, cough cough ......"
Inside the house, except for Uncle Qin's cough, it was very quiet.
I thought about Uncle Qin's analysis, it seems that this is really the case, Xu Buhuo has long found out that I have a connection with Uncle Qin, but he knows that if I say bad things about Uncle Qin in front of me, I will definitely not believe it, so I will make such a show while Uncle Qin is away.
Otherwise, after entering the courtyard, how could he move his nose to smell the corpse smell emitted by the corpse rat feces six or seven meters away from the corner of the wall? I didn't smell it, and I could see that the corpse rat was completely random to see.
When I suspected Uncle Qin with corpse feces, he walked directly to the chicken coop and made me notice something different from the golden-eyed chicken.
The chicken coop was at the door, and I went in and out of Uncle Qin's house several times, but I didn't find that the chicken eyes were golden. It didn't take long for him to come in and he realized that now that he thought about it, was this observation too sharp?
I thought of it, if Xu Buhuo brought the corpse rat feces to the yard, wouldn't the corpse rat kneeling around Jiang Yan's grave be raised by him?
At this moment, I was completely confused, and I couldn't tell who was telling the truth. When Xu Buhuo told me about the corpse rat and the soul devouring chicken, he said everything to the truth. Now that Uncle Qin has explained everything to me, it sounds like it's all right.
Intuition seemed to lose its usefulness at this point, and I felt like I was going to go insane.
"Do you know what I found when I went out?"
Uncle Qin's words pulled me back.
"When I went to the town during the day, I remembered what you said about the letter before, so I went to Xishan Village to ask, in our town, in addition to your grandmother, there is indeed a feng shui master named Mr. Xu in Xishan Village, who is very famous, but that Mr. Xu suddenly died of a heart attack seven days ago."
"What? Mr. Xu from Xishan Village is dead? ”
This news shocked me completely, and my whole body couldn't help but tremble.
If Mr. Xu, the real feng shui master of Xishan Village, died seven days ago, then who is Mr. Xu who has been busy coming to my house during this time?
The letter left by my grandmother when she passed away clearly explained that she asked Mr. Xu, a feng shui master from Xishan Village, to deal with the matter. I think again, since Mr. Xu, the feng shui master of Xishan Village, is dead, then where did the village chief invite Mr. Xu?
Before Xu Bu lived, I thought that since I could be called a master, then the line must be different, but when the village chief brought Xu Bu alive, I couldn't see the three words of Feng Shui master in him.
At this moment, I was really scared.
For a long time, I have never doubted Xu Buhuo's identity.
I didn't think about it, after being busy at home, Mr. Xu, who was doing his best, turned out to be fake.
