Chapter 277: Lies Repeated
Then Boss Huang sighed again, and said helplessly: "I went to Chen Laohan's house to take a look, his cow is indeed not young, but it still looks old and strong, and it doesn't look like it's going to die at all." ”
Li Huaishan quipped: "Listening to what you mean, it seems that I wish other people's cattle died." ”
Boss Huang pondered for a moment before continuing: "You say that, it's actually true. Didn't I come all the way to buy cattle? If Chen Laohan's cattle don't die, I won't run for nothing. In fact, his cow should have died a long time ago, and no one expected it to survive until now. If this cow lives for a few more days, I am afraid that something big will happen in the village. ”
I didn't understand the last sentence, so I asked Boss Huang: "Why do cows live for a long time, and the village still has to suffer?" ”
"That's it." Boss Huang threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and lowered his voice slightly: "I heard the old man in the village say that if someone's cow survives for the twentieth year, there will be a little ghost in the village to arrest people."
Hearing him say this, Li Huaishan and I immediately glanced at each other, and saw Li Huaishan with a playful smile on his face.
I know why he's laughing, but I also know that even though I'm a yin cha and two ghost pawns by my side, even so, I don't know much about the imps.
Whether the ghost pawn and the so-called imp can be equated, I can't give a definite answer.
Boss Huang probably saw the smile on Li Huaishan's face, and added very facelessly: "I didn't lie to you, the last time there was a cow in the village who lived past twenty years old, and guess what?" Chen Dafa, a family of five in the north of the village, died that night. ”
Li Huaishan: "The north of the village? Is there a house in that place that has been deserted for a long time? ”
Boss Huang nodded: "Yes, that house is where Chen Dafa used to live." ”
After a long time, the house was not only dilapidated, but also a murderous mansion that had died!
I interjected and asked, "When did that Chen Dafa you said die?" How did he die? ”
It is estimated that my tone is too formal, Boss Huang was stunned for a moment, and only asked me after a few seconds: "You two, it won't be the police, right?" ”
When he asked, I didn't know what to say for a while, but Li Huaishan played a round: "It's just curiosity, ask." In the past few years, we have also been running all over the country, and we have seen a lot of weirdos and strange things. To tell you the truth, at this time last year, we went to Yunnan to do an investigation, and we also saw a powerful ghost asking for his life. As soon as you said the imp, my buddy must have remembered what happened again. Hey, you just say, was that Chen Dafa called for his life by a powerful ghost? ”
Boss Huang not only has a great vision, but also is more alert and responds quickly. Li Huaishan's eyesight is not as good as his, but in terms of alertness and reaction speed, he is no worse than Boss Huang.
What's more, Li Huaishan has a very high talent for lying, and I don't know if this should be considered an advantage or a disadvantage.
Boss Huang waved his hand: "I've never seen a powerful ghost ask for his life, it's scary to think about." In fact, I also heard from the old people in the village about Chen Dafa, but I only heard that their family of five died abnormally, as for how they died, they didn't say, this kind of thing, I am embarrassed to ask more about it. Oh, by the way, I heard that the last time the cow in the village lived past twenty years was ten years ago, and if you think about it, if it weren't for all these years, Chen Dafa's house wouldn't have been broken like that. ”
That's right.
I took out a cigarette, lit it silently, and then leaned aside to listen to Li Huaishan and Boss Huang chatting, and I found that as a bad person who can't lie, it is an impossible task to get a word out of a stranger's mouth.
So I decided to temporarily entrust this glorious and arduous task to Li Huaishan, the king of swindlers.
Then Li Huaishan asked Boss Huang if he was very familiar with the locals, Boss Huang said with a bitter face, he didn't know how many times he had come to this village, but every time he came, most of the villagers wanted to see a ghost when they saw him, looking at the whole village, that is, Chen Laohan had a good relationship with him, otherwise he couldn't run all the way to the ravine of the loess slope because of Chen Laohan's words.
Boss Huang said that this old man Chen is one of the richest people in the village, he had sold Chinese herbal medicine in Shaanxi before, and met Boss Huang by chance, and learned that Boss Huang was doing a cow corpse business, and told Boss Huang that he had a cow many years ago, and promised to sell the cow corpse to Boss Huang at a low price after the cow died.
Since the year before last, Chen Laohan has asked Boss Huang to come to old several times a year, and every time he said that the cow in the family must die this time, but the cow is very strong, and every time Boss Huang sees it, it is alive.
It's just that this time it's different from usual, if Chen Laohan's cattle still don't die this time, I'm afraid there will be problems in the village.
In addition, Chen Laohan has always attached great importance to his homestead, Boss Huang told us that if you really want to buy land to plant grapes, you must do Chen Laohan's work well, don't force him, the old man's temper is very stubborn, is a typical shun donkey, eat soft not hard.
When Boss Huang said this, I always felt as if there was something wrong, but I couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while.
Li Huaishan also frowned all the time, but did not interrupt Boss Huang.
It wasn't until Boss Huang finished talking that Li Huaishan picked up the conversation: "I feel that the locals seem to be quite xenophobic, the two of us have been in the village for most of the day, and the people in the village hide when they see us." ”
Boss Huang sighed: "Who said it wasn't." I also heard Chen Laohan say that the locals are not xenophobic and dare not talk to outsiders. In this village, there is a very powerful wicked man, I don't know what his real name is, I only know that this person's nickname is Chen Dabang, and this person doesn't know what's wrong, as long as he sees the villagers talking to people from other places, he will find trouble with the villagers. ”
Li Huaishan: "In this place, do you often see people from other places?" ”
Boss Huang shook his head: "I don't know about this, I listened to Chen Laohan about everything." ”
Li Huaishan took out another cigarette and handed it to Boss Huang: "Then Old Man Chen told you so much, didn't Chen Dabang trouble him?" ”
Boss Huang waved his hand, rejected Li Huaishan's cigarette, took out the cigarette case from his pocket, took out one and handed it to Li Huaishan: "I rolled it myself, taste it." ”
Li Huaishan took Boss Huang's cigarette, and Boss Huang took out another cigarette from the cigarette pack and handed it to me, and I took it too.
In fact, this kind of behavior is very dangerous, and no one knows who Boss Huang is, nor does he know if he has added other condiments to his cigarettes.
Thanks to my luck and Li Huaishan's luck, Boss Huang is not a suspicious person, otherwise, I may not have an accident, and Li Huaishan will give an account of his life if he doesn't get it right.
We lit a cigarette here, and Boss Huang continued the topic just now: "Old man Chen is not a person to be messed with, he is a big person in the village, not to mention, I heard that when he was young, he was more powerful than Chen Dabang, although he is old now, but Chen Dabang generally does not dare to provoke him." ”
"Your cigarette tastes quite mellow, it's just a little stronger," Li Huaishan commented on the cigarette in his hand, and then said: "What is Chen Dabang doing, why are the people in the village so afraid of him?" ”
Boss Huang pouted: "I don't know about this, and Chen Laohan hasn't said it." But I've seen this Chen Dabang, this person doesn't like to be clean, but the clothes on his body are not cheap at first glance, it seems that the economic conditions are not bad, oh, by the way, he also has a van, when Chen Laohan doesn't come back, it is the only car in the village. Usually, if someone in the village wants to go to the city or go out to work, they come back, they take his car. ”
As soon as he said this, I understood, Chen Dabang, isn't it just the man who went to Yinchuan to pick me up and Li Huaishan.
At this time, Boss Huang seemed to suddenly think of something, and the words changed: "By the way, how did you two come here?" Driving, or riding in someone else's car? ”
Someone else's car, whose car? Who else could there be besides Chen Dabang?
When I first came into contact with Boss Huang, I thought he was a completely unsuspecting person, but after chatting for a while, I realized that he seems to become very sensitive at some times, but it is difficult for you to explain why he is suddenly sensitive.
As soon as Boss Huang's words fell, Li Huaishan didn't even need to think about it before he responded: "The driver sent us over." Hey, I was still thinking, this place is not small, the whole investigation, why not take two or three days, it just so happened that our car was about to run out of gas, so I asked the driver to go back to refuel first. We first inspected the mountainous area, until we entered the village and found that the two of us couldn't find a place to live, and happened to see that your car was a foreign license plate, so I wanted to come over and ask when you were leaving, can you give us a ride. ”
Seriously, I wanted to give Li Huaishan an amazing look at that time.
That's just a ...... It's so seamless.
Boss Huang also nodded frequently: "Also, people in the village don't dare to entertain outsiders, you may not have a place to live tonight." Otherwise, tonight, you can follow me to Chen Laohan's house. ”
Li Huaishan didn't answer directly, but asked, "How many days do you plan to stay here?" ”
Boss Huang became a little helpless: "It's hard to say, if the old cow of Old Han Chen's family doesn't die, I don't know how long I will stay." ”
Li Huaishan nodded hard, as if he had made a great determination, and said: "Then we will stay for two more days, and I will tell the driver when I go back and ask him to pick us up later." ”
Boss Huang wondered, "What are you doing here, continuing to investigate?" ”
Li Huaishan made a very embarrassed expression: "When I got off the bus, I also told my driver that when I was on a business trip, adaptability is very important, don't look at this place is poorer and more broken, as long as you have perseverance, you can still take root and do work." To be honest, I didn't expect to find a place to live, and I thought just now that if the two of us just went back like this, we wouldn't be laughed at by the people below. Now, we're both on your side, and if you don't bother, we'll stay with you first. Staying here for two more days can be regarded as setting an example for the people below, hehe. ”
Hearing Li Huaishan say this, Boss Huang also smiled and nodded: "That's okay, alas, it's not easy for you to be leaders." ”
Not long ago, I was wondering how I could stay in this village. After seeing the situation in the village, I thought it was simply an unsolvable problem. Unexpectedly, Li Huaishan solved the problem in just a few words.
