47: Scar
When I saw such a strange way of death before, I only thought it had something to do with my grandmother. But now, I know I'm wrong.
If the person who killed the person was Jiang Yan, then everything would make sense.
Laughter can be understood as smugness, mockery.
Eighteen years ago, Jiang Yan was in trouble, and her grandmother did a lot to deal with her, and she had already formed a grudge invisibly. But because my grandmother's skills are not weak, Jiang Yan can only hide all along, and she appeared when I lost my soul.
When her grandmother died, Jiang Yan was no longer a threat, so she began to do it, controlling the deaths of the people who carried her grandmother's coffin one after another.
After he died, he smiled at his grandmother's grave, as if he was saying to his grandmother: Look, I am going to kill these people who gave you a funeral now.
I told this discovery, Xu Buhuo nodded slightly, and said, "It's also possible." ”
If you think about it, I'm pretty sure that's it, otherwise why would I smile at my grandmother's grave since they were all dead.
It's just that Jiang Yan hasn't been seen since she disappeared that night, and I can't figure out what she's playing, while saying that someone wants to harm me, but there are indeed people who want to harm me, and at the same time disappearing, it really looks like someone is dealing with her.
At this time, Uncle Sun Lin's words pulled me back from my reverie, and I only heard him say: "At the beginning, Mrs. Wang's mouth was very stinky, and several of us present had a little conflict with her, so she chewed nonsense and we all had an affair with Jiang Yan, and then she was cursed. ”
The answer was exactly what I expected.
Another uncle said: "Actually, at the beginning, most of the men in the whole village were involved, and your father was also involved, you didn't see that scene, more than ten women, after eating, gathered at the door of Jiang Yan's house, and said anything ugly." ”
Uncle Sun Lin continued: "Yes, this woman listens to the wind and rain, obviously there is nothing to do, she just makes trouble, you don't know how helpless we were at that time." ”
At this point, the above doubts are explained.
After guessing and guessing, I finally figured out who was behind the ghost, and my heart was finally a little relieved.
"Ziwu, do you think these things have something to do with Jiang Yan?" My mother asked me suddenly.
I nodded and said affirmatively: "Eight or nine are not far from ten, Brother Li, Uncle Qian, and Uncle Zhong Fu are all related to her, and she is the one who fell in the body of several uncles, and then made these weird suicides." ”
As soon as I heard that Jiang Yan was back to make trouble, the three uncles' faces were not very good, and the mother frowned slightly, I asked what was wrong, and she said that Jiang Yan had contact with her when she was still alive. With her own feelings, Jiang Yan is not like this kind of person who will kill people indiscriminately.
"People's hearts change, and you know how chaotic things happened at the beginning, maybe it was because of the chaos that she had resentment in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't be like that after death." Uncle Sun Lin added to my words.
The mother's mouth opened, but in the end she didn't say anything, obviously trying to defend Jiang Yan, but she didn't know what to say.
"By the way, I had a hallucination before, and I almost strangled myself to death."
I walked to the door and told Xu Buhuo about the illusion, knowing that he had been studying the Soul Eater Puppet in the house while we were looking for Uncle Zhong Fu outside, thinking that he might have something to gain.
Before the illusion appeared, I didn't take it very seriously, and I felt that my will was strong enough to resist it, but after only one vision, I knew that it was too easy to think about everything.
The illusion could not be more real, and like reality, it was completely imperceptible.
"It seems that the person who made the soul eater puppet is even more difficult than I thought, so the person who controls the corpse may also be him."
Xu Buhuo was silent for a while, and went into the firewood room to continue studying the soul eating puppet, I followed and watched for a while, but I couldn't see anything, so I returned to the hall because Uncle Zhong Fu woke up.
Uncle Zhong Fu, who woke up, was still a little panicked, but he quickly calmed down under the appeasement, and asked about what happened during the disappearance, Uncle Zhong Fu shook his head and said that he didn't know, but he remembered that he was still chatting with Cao Guangshan and others during the day, and he woke up like this.
I was happy and vigilant at the same time that I finally stopped a death, because I knew that this series of strange deaths was not what I thought at the beginning.
At the beginning, because I didn't know the reason, I thought that these things were laid out in advance, and I only needed to block one of them, and I couldn't say that I could block everything.
The fact is that Jiang Yan is manipulating this. Although she is dead, her mind has not changed as a ghost, and she may control the rest of her uncles to replace her at any time.
If you don't achieve your goal, you won't give up.
As for the hallucinogenic drugs contained in their blood, I thought about it and thought that it should have been made a long time ago, or Jiang Yan had already done something in the village's drinking water.
Because Cao Guangshan has investigated the substances in the blood, several uncles have not eaten or seen anything special recently, so it can be determined that the things in the blood are not recently contacted. It has long been hidden in the bloodstream, and it can be triggered at any time when needed.
It is unimaginable that Jiang Yan, a resentful soul, can come up with such a strange method.
Since these things have the smell of revenge, it is obvious that I will not give up if I don't achieve my goal, in order to prevent anyone from being recruited again, I decided to switch duties with Cao Guangshan.
At one o'clock in the morning, Xu Buhuo was still studying the Soul Eater Puppet, and at this time, he was not just looking at the Soul Eater Puppet with his eyes, but began to attack the Soul Eater Puppet and scrape the black paper on the surface of the Soul Eater Puppet with a knife.
The human skin hidden underneath was gradually revealed, and when the black paper on the entire face was gone, revealing the face below, I was a little uneasy.
I have always been curious about Liu Lezi who has nothing to do with these things, why did he suddenly die, and then he was made into human skin by Grimace.
Now, the answer is out.
In order to make a soul-eating puppet, the person behind him needed a human skin, and Liu Lezi happened to be the candidate for making raw materials, and the other party directly killed him and turned him into a human skin with a grimace.
The reason for choosing Liu Lezi is very simple, the village chief's consciousness is still in chaos, and the village chief's wife is not very kind to Liu Lezi, plus Liu Lezi has no family, he is dead, and the people in the village will not be sad to investigate, and even some people will clap their hands and applaud, because Liu Lezi has done a lot of immoral things over the years.
This discovery reminded me of the black handprint.
Xu Buhuo had mentioned before that there should also be black handprints on the bodies of grandfather and father when they died, and the answer after seeking from his mother was that he didn't know if there were black handprints on his grandfather's death, but there were indeed black handprints on his body when his father died.
This situation makes me feel like I have caught a clue.
The black handprint was obviously manipulated by someone, and if it was there when my grandfather died, it would be certain that the age of the person hiding behind me who wanted my soul was definitely not small.
Grandpa died almost thirty years ago, so the person hiding behind it, even now, must be at least sixty years old, otherwise he would not have such profound skills.
The older he gets, the more experienced he is, and the other party's method of making a soul-eating puppet makes Xu Buhuo admire, and it can be determined that the person's age is definitely after the age of sixty.
There are no more than twenty people in the village who are over sixty years old, and who are still alive and healthy.
Thinking about this, I knew that the person who was going to persecute me, and even the people in the village, was the old man in the village.
After telling Xu Buhuo about this idea, he immediately decided to wait for dawn and take him to talk to the old people in the village, as long as there is a problem, he will definitely be able to detect it.
The confusion of things is being unraveled little by little.
I was on duty in the first half of the night, Xu Buhuo went to rest after being on duty with me for a while, I sat alone in the hall to read the collection of books left by my grandmother, and began to get in touch with a series of knowledge such as numerology and physiognomy.
The more I looked at it, the more energetic I became, I wasn't very sleepy at all, even when the time came, I didn't call Cao Guangshan, thinking that I would let him replace him when I was sleepy.
"Da Da ......"
Outside, there was a sudden soft sound.
At first, I thought I had heard it wrong, but then there was a clatter in the courtyard, and I tensed up and hurried to the window.
This is not the first time I have heard this voice.
The corpse is here again.
I don't know why the corpse came in the middle of the night, but I knew that the corpse was not a good thing, so I leaned in front of the window and watched the corpse walking around the yard.
Take a walk?
Seeing that the corpse was just walking around the yard, I didn't understand what it was trying to do, and the feeling of walking around the yard was like a person who couldn't sleep and was bored walking.
Is it an illusion?
Thinking about what happened in the evening, I subconsciously wondered if it was another illusion, because the illusion appeared completely imperceptible, and the only difference was that it was slightly different from usual.
According to common sense, since the corpse is here, it will either come in or leave, and this kind of behavior of walking around the yard is really abnormal.
In order to determine whether it was an illusion, I pinched myself hard, it hurt so much, I thought that my grandmother was going to kill me in the previous vision, it was still uncomfortable, I knew that illusions are not like dreams, there is no such principle that dreams do not hurt.
Twenty minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and the corpse was still walking around the courtyard.
In a hurry, I flicked my fingers on the glass to see if I could get the attention of the corpse, but after the sound came out, the corpse just paused slightly, glanced at me, and then continued to walk.
Wrong.
I was so anxious that I wanted to go out to see, but I was worried that this was not an illusion, and that it was a real corpse outside, and I was very impatient if I didn't go out.
Eventually, I gritted my teeth and suppressed my impatience, intending to wait in the house, knowing that even if the corpse outside was an illusion, it might be dangerous for me to go out, just like my grandmother had shown up before.
Then, I continued to look down at the book, ignoring the corpses walking around outside, and the more I read, the more fascinated I became.
"Bastard."
Xu Buhuo's roar suddenly exploded in my ears, startling my eyes, only to realize that I had come to the courtyard at some point.
Ahead, Xu Buhuo just forced the corpse to retreat, and in the middle of the wind, the sleeve of the corpse's left arm was torn off by him.
Then the faint light in the room, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a ten-centimeter-sized scar on the corpse's left arm.
Seeing this scar, my head buzzed, and I was stunned.
In my memory, one of the closest people had this exact scar on his arm.
