Chapter 275: An Unexpected "Harvest"
Then I went inside and told everyone what I had just heard. After hearing this, Li Zhisheng seemed to be speechless and stopped, and the Dead Apostle took the lead and said: "I have never heard of any yin-yang techniques that can bury people in the ground and turn them into fruits, this should have nothing to do with Yangshi and Onizuka." ”
At this time, Li Zhisheng said: "Indeed, I have never heard such a thing. But it can't be completely ruled out that this legend is pure, just like the kind of thing we encountered before, which combines Gu magic and yin and yang arts...... Although this is just a legend, there is no wind and no waves, and if there is no related thing to support this rumor, then where does the rumor come from? ”
After listening to it, I probably understood what Li Zhisheng meant, he felt that whether this legend was true or not, in short, there must be some clues to be found, otherwise such a rumor would not have been born for no reason.
"But then again......" Li Zhisheng changed his words and continued: "Have you ever considered that this legend may be a trap set by Yang Shi, after all, you are just listening to other people's words. If the Yang Shi had deliberately arranged for someone to induce us to find the so-called blood farmer, we would probably fall into their hands again. ”
After speaking, not only Li Zhisheng, but even Yaolong on the side also showed embarrassment. And I fell into deep thought, Li Zhisheng's concerns are not all unreasonable, after all, it is not the first time that Yangshi has designed to frame us.
There was silence for a long time, and no one spoke, because if you don't go, you might miss a clue that might be valuable, but if you go, you might fall into the whole set of Yangshi.
After a moment, I thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's see if we can come up with a relatively safe solution, if there is no perfect solution, then just treat this story as a legend......
The purpose of this is to plan to go to the middle-aged woman again the next day to inquire in detail, and also to give everyone some time to think about it.
Thinking about it, I asked Hu Fang to make something to eat first, and I pressed the glass I bought back to the window.
After dinner, everyone rested for a while and went back to their rooms to sleep......
……
The next day, I rushed to the vegetable market alone early in the morning to see if the middle-aged woman had come. But when I came to the vegetable market, I didn't find any trace of her, only the old man who refused to believe the middle-aged woman yesterday, he was standing alone in front of the vegetable stall, as if because it was still early, and there was no business, he was looking around boredly.
I stepped forward and opened my mouth to ask, "Uncle, where is the eldest sister who bought vegetables with you yesterday?" Hasn't she come yet? ”
The old man looked at me and suddenly realized, "Oh! You're the young man who came to ask her about the blood farmer yesterday, what are you looking for her? ”
Hearing this, I had an idea, made up a temporary reason, and said with a smile: "That's the case, in fact, I am a writer, I thought about it last night, and I felt that the story of the eldest sister was very interesting, and I wanted to ask her about more details." After all, for my profession, any material is very valuable......"
After hearing this, the old man nodded thoughtfully, and then said with a regretful expression: "So that's the case, but it's really not a coincidence, something seems to have happened at her house, and she may not be able to come today......"
"What's wrong? What's going on in her house? I hurriedly asked.
The old man sighed and said, "Hey, God doesn't open his eyes, her family is dead, obviously a very kind family, I didn't expect ......"
"What's going on, can you tell me more about it?" I looked a little anxious.
The old man was a little surprised when he saw that I was in a hurry, and he asked suspiciously, "Don't you just want to know that story?" Why did you become interested in their family's affairs? ”
I was a little speechless when he asked, "People are curious, I just ask, maybe it can be a good writing material......" I laughed awkwardly.
The old man looked at me again, took out a cigarette from his body and lit it alone, sighed and said, "Her son is dead, he has died since he came home last night, and he is now dealing with the loss." After saying that, his face showed sadness that could not be concealed.
Seeing that his expression was different, all of a sudden I seemed to notice something, and said vigilantly, "You, are you someone from her family......"
After hearing this, the old man was stunned, and saw the cigarette slipping from his hand and falling to the ground. I was surprised to see him, and I thought to myself, I guessed right.
But in a moment, the old man sensed that his state was not quite right, and quickly picked up the cigarette that had fallen on the ground, took a sharp breath, and whispered to me without raising his head: "Young man, it is better not to delve too deeply into some things." Didn't you write it? If you want to know anything about the blood farmer, just ask me, and although I don't believe in these things, you still know something. ”
At this moment, I have already got the answer I want, and there is no need to continue to ask, so I turned the conversation around and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't get me wrong, I just ask casually, since you mind me so much, I won't ask more......" Saying that, I asked a watery cabbage from the vegetable stall in front of him: "How do you sell cabbage......"
"Look at it......" he said, holding a cigarette in his hand and silently turning away. He didn't seem to want to continue talking to me, "Then I'll buy two cabbages, and I......'ll put the money here for you," I said, and I took out some money and put it behind him and left alone.
Since I forgot to pick up the bag when I left, I was holding a cabbage in one hand along the way, which seemed a little strange. But I didn't care about any of this, all I thought about was about the blood farmer.
Back at home, Yaolong and the Dead Apostle had woken up, and the two of them were standing by the bedside, stretching their muscles facing the rising sun. Seeing that I came back with two cabbages in my hand, Yaolong said, "Recently, you are about to become a nanny, and you are shopping for vegetables and cleaning." As he spoke, he came over and wanted to take the cabbage from my hand.
But the moment he put his hand towards me, his expression froze suddenly, "Shen Xu, what kind of dish are you buying?!" He pointed to something in my hand in dismay.
I was surprised and replied, "Cabbage, why do you ......?" and I held up the cabbage in my hand to my eyes, but when I saw the two cabbages in my hand, I froze.
A pale red liquid slowly flowed out of the emerald green cabbage, and although the liquid was not as red as blood, it could smell a very obvious smell of blood......
