When Xu Tian and Teacher Jin walked out, they saw that the group of people surrounding the next house were all kneeling on the ground, as if they were affirming that the people in the house had promised them something.

"What's going on here? Suddenly there were so many people. Xu Tian said.

"Let's take a look first, this time I invited a lot of group performances, and it is estimated that there will be a highlight." Teacher Jin said.

Out of the next house came a woman of nearly thirty years old, who looked like a housewife in terms of her clothes.

"Teacher Jin, I think that woman is a little familiar, can you recognize her?" Xu Tian said.

"I don't recognize it, but I'm like you, as if I saw her yesterday." Teacher Jin said.

After the kneeling villagers stood up, Xu Tian and Teacher Jin also came over, and they spoke some dialects that they didn't understand, but they could vaguely hear some meanings.

"Please Mr. Xu help us take a look! There can be no more dead people in the village. An elderly villager said.

"Folks, I'm really sorry." The woman bowed affectionately to the crowd. "It's really inconvenient for our husband to investigate the case, I know everyone is very anxious, but our husband has been retired for many years, and now he also has a stubborn illness, please understand, okay?"

"Xiaotong! We are not here to make trouble, I know that Mr. Xu is in poor health, but now that our village has been blocked by a snowstorm, the police can't get in, if Mr. Xu doesn't help to see the situation, we don't know the bottom of our hearts! The elder villager said.

At this time, a man in an electric wheelchair came out of the room, and Xu Tian couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, because his hair was very long, and he deliberately covered his face, and the most important thing was that the man in the electric wheelchair still had a long beard, which made it even more difficult to distinguish his appearance.

"Let's all go back! I can understand your feelings, but please understand us, I came to this island with my wife to live a lifetime, and everyone knows my stubborn illness, and there is really nothing I can do about the tragedy that happened in the village. The man said.

"But, Mr. Xu......"

"But you don't have to worry, there are two people behind you who can help you, their criminal investigation ability is very strong, I recommend my old friend to you." The man pointed at Xu Tian and Teacher Jin and said.

The villagers turned their heads to look at Xu Tian and Teacher Jin, the two of them couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and Xu Tian also felt a little strange, how could that man know him?

"You two, you haven't talked properly since you came to our house! You guys come in first to have a sip of hot water, and then you will follow the villagers to the scene of the crime. The man beckoned to Xu Tian and Teacher Jin.

Xu Tian and Teacher Jin walked into the man's house with a confused face, the decoration inside was very simple, but it could be seen that this man was a person who was not bad for money, because there was one thing in the room that was very eye-catching, that is, the spiritual seat enshrined in their family, which turned out to be a thing made of pure gold in the shape of an old grandfather.

"Teacher Jin, that's pure gold." Xu Tian said.

"How do you know? Do you still have the ability to discern gold with your eyes? Teacher Jin said suspiciously.

"It's something made of pure gold, I know the seal of the base, it was made by a famous goldsmith in the hinterland, I once helped a rich man break a family case, and then the rich man gave me the same little gold man as this, because it was so valuable, I didn't dare to take it myself, and kept it with my parents, so I know this thing." Xu Tian said.

"You two sit as you like." The man said.

"I just want to ask, who are you?" Xu Tian asked.

"My surname is Xu, and everyone in the village calls me Mr. Xu, I should be older than you, so you can call me that!" Mr. Xu said.

"Then Mr. Xu, you just told the villagers that you knew us, but I can't remember where I saw you, but your wife...... I feel familiar. Xu Tian said.

"Actually, I haven't seen you either, but if I don't say that, I'm afraid the villagers will embarrass you." Mr. Xu said.

"Then why do you know our names?" Xu Tian asked.

"It was Dr. Lin who sent you here, the house you stayed in just now is our wing, Dr. Lin also told me some information about you, and she also paid a lot of rent to rent our wing to you temporarily." Mr. Xu said.

"What's going on here? Why did Dr. Lim do that? Xu Tian asked.

"I don't know about this, I only know that her surname is Lin and she is a psychiatrist, and I am actually just a landlord, as for other things, I don't know very well." Mr. Xu said.

"Oh well! Did Dr. Lin explain what you want us to do? Xu Tian asked.

"That's not true, but Dr. Lin said, you are detectives and police detectives with strong criminal investigation ability, since there is a case in the village now, I want to ask you to help the villagers, is it okay?" Mr. Xu said.

"Of course it's fine, but we have to know the ins and outs of the matter, and I'm not just talking about the case, but also about you." Xu Tian said.

"I don't know the facts of the case very well, but it is said that since the other day, five people have died in the village one after another, and the deceased are all young and strong grooms-to-be, right? Xiaotong? Mr. Xu asked the lady standing next to him.

"Oh! Right! Mrs. Xu blinked her eyes and said. Everyone died under the altar table, very strangely. ”

"Altar? What is this? Xu Tian asked.

"It is a traditional sacrificial ceremony in this village, every winter the villagers have to set up an altar in an ancestral hall, begging the ancestors to bless the winter from disasters, the altar can also be said to be a medium connecting the Yellow Spring, according to legend, every night in winter, the ancestors in the Yellow Spring will return to the village through the altar, as long as a villager does something wrong, the ancestors will slaughter him under the altar, of course, this is the older generation to scare the naughty little grandson." Mr. Xu said.

"So are the five people who died one after another considered to be bad people who came back from their ancestors to slaughter?" Xu Tian asked.

"I don't know about this, but the grooms-to-be who died seem to be good guys, I don't know what bad things they have done, but no one believes in the legend of the altar, what age is this, you also saw it just now, the villagers came to me to solve the case, which shows that the villagers here still believe in science." Mr. Xu said.
