Chapter 67: He's Sick!
Chen Huabing pointed to the village in the distance and said to us, "He should be in the village, in that direction!"
His watch seems to be able to locate only the direction and approximate distance, and the closer it is to the target, the less precise it is and can only indicate the direction of the target.
We had no choice but to go into the village and inquire, and we couldn't go door-to-door, which was rude. In case of anger, one brick per person is enough for us to drink a pot.
The people in the village seemed to be very unkind to outsiders, and from the moment we entered the village, the villagers looked at us strangely.
As if vigilant, but also scared, the three of us were confused by their eyes, did we look scary?
Su Xiaoqing pushed me, pointed at the villagers hiding behind the door with her chin, and motioned for me to hurry up and ask.
I looked at Chen Huabing, and with his taciturn nature, I couldn't count on it.
I had no choice but to take off the big mask on my face, let out a sunny smile, and walk towards the nearest house.
This is a farmhouse, and there seems to be only one old man in the house, and he is looking at me with a wary face, and slowly retreats to the door. When he retreated to the door, he walked in at once, and then slammed the door shut.
I ate a closed door soup and touched my nose a little speechlessly, which ...... I'm scary?
Chen Huabing walked up to me with his hands in his pockets and said softly to me, "Do you know why they have this attitude towards us?"
I thought about it for a moment and smiled. "You mean because of him?"
"Hmm!" Chen Huabing nodded and continued: "Don't you see the feng shui layout here, although I don't know much about this aspect, but this place is surrounded by mountains, the terrain is high, and it is backed by a small dragon vein. This alone proves that the feng shui here is very good. Looking at the housing construction here, it is obviously newly built, and there are no abandoned rents here, I guess they are likely to have migrated en masse in the last decade or so. Most people in the countryside are superstitious, and this must be someone behind the guidance, and that person may be from the village! ”
Hearing this, I understood, and gave him a thumbs up: "You mean that we were wrong at the beginning, thinking that he was hiding in this deep mountain, but we ignored one point, he didn't know that we were looking for him, why should we hide?" Maybe this is his hometown, and he's just going home. ”
Chen Huabing continued to nod, stretched out his hand and pointed to the road outside the village, and said with a smile: "Don't you see that there are traces of spell casting there?"
"I see it, it's just not sure. I'm sure of what you say. ”
"Let's go, then we'll go directly to the village chief."
With that, the three of us walked directly to the village, Su Xiaoqing ran over and asked an old man, inquired about the village chief's home, and then went directly to the village chief.
The village chief's house is in the center of the village, and it is the only brick house in the area, and it is also the largest house, so it is easy to find.
Su Xiaoqing went up and knocked on them, and shouted, "Is the village chief here?"
Soon, there were footsteps inside, and a loud voice: "It's coming, it's coming!"
The door opened, and an old man in his fifties walked out, dressed modestly and quite strongly. After seeing a few of us strangers, he was slightly surprised, and quickly smiled and invited us into the house.
"Guys, where are you guys coming from?"
He spoke the local Jiangxi dialect, which we had a bit of a hard time listening to, but fortunately, as long as he slowed down the pace of his speech, he could barely understand.
I smiled and said, "Uncle, we're from the north."
"Oh? Visiting relatives? The village chief asked with a kind smile on his face, quite interested.
When I shook my head, thinking about how to get the information about the name of the zodiac out of his mouth, I suddenly had a plan and hurriedly said, "No, no, we are here to find someone."
When I said this, I still pretended to be embarrassed and stopped talking.
The village chief hurriedly asked: "Looking for someone, if you ask me, I will be done, there is no one I don't know in this village, you can talk about it."
I glanced at Chen Huabing, lowered my voice a little, and said, "My friend has hysteria, and it took a lot of people to find out that there is a master with real skills in Guibaodi, so I hurried over." If it's convenient for the village chief, show us the way, the matter is urgent, and we can't delay! ”
As soon as he heard me say that someone had hysteria, the village chief immediately became energetic, looked Chen Huabing up and down, and said after a while: "It's strange, why don't I look like there is any strange disease!"
I whispered and said, "You don't know, my friend has been so wicked lately, he hasn't eaten for four or five days, we can't persuade him, and he doesn't have to say that he is in Bigu." Don't look at him at this time, he is quite normal, but he gets sick at night, it doesn't count as a person talking to the air, he still cries and laughs, sings and dances, and sometimes he gets sick during the day, and we are also scared. That's why it's famous, and I begged Huang Daxian to show him if he still had it. ”
As I spoke, I took my eyes to Chen Huabing, and sure enough, I saw him staring at me with black lines all over his head, and the corners of his mouth were still twitching slightly, I turned my head away, not daring to look directly at his murderous gaze.
Su Xiaoqing couldn't help laughing on the side, her little shoulders shrugged, if it weren't for someone beside her, she would have laughed.
The village chief didn't notice the abnormality of our three children, and said very surprised: "Is there anything else?"
I nodded and gave Chen Huabing a vague kick, signaling him to pretend to be crazy and fool the village chief. When he is no longer wary of us, he will naturally take us to find the corpse keeper Huang Daoming.
Su Xiaoqing's shoulders shrugged even more, and she seemed to be struggling to hold back her laughter. Fortunately, she brought a big mask, otherwise she would have been discovered by the village chief.
Chen Huabing clenched his fists, his face was terrifyingly dark, if his eyes could kill, I would have died at least a hundred times.
In the end, he let go of his fist, smiled at us, and then lowered his head as if nothing had happened, and did not move, ignoring me.
The village chief was startled and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"It's okay, he seems to be sick again." I explained.
"Poof~"
Su Xiaoqing finally couldn't hold it back, and laughed out loud.
The village chief was puzzled and asked me, "Is this girl also sick?"
Su Xiaoqing's laughter stopped abruptly, glared at the village chief, and said, "You just got sick."
I couldn't help laughing, and flickered at the village chief for a while, and finally after ten minutes, he nodded and promised to take us to Huang Banxian after dinner.
So, we stayed at the village chief's house for dinner together, and in order to cooperate with the lie just said, Chen Huabing sat alone outside the courtyard and did not eat.
After eating, I walked up to him, took out a bottle of bread and a bottle of yogurt from my backpack and handed it to him: "Make do with it!"
Chen Huabing didn't say anything, silently took the bread, hid aside and ate it quietly.
After packing up our things, the village chief led us out of the courtyard and into the deepest part of the village. I looked at the watch in Chen Huabing's hand, and the two hands on it, one long and one short, were aimed at the direction led by the village chief at the same time.
Now it is certain that Huang Banxian is the name of the Zodiac Dao, and he is really from this village!
After walking for more than ten minutes, the nearby houses gradually thinned out, and not far ahead, there was a lonely courtyard, and the roof of the courtyard rose with curling smoke, which was actually a harmonious scene.
The smoke of the mountain village reflects the rising sun, and the green mountains are long in the distance, which is a good and harmonious scene!
If it weren't for the fact that I had known that the owner of this house was a scheming corpse keeper, I would have regarded him as a master!
We walked into the courtyard, and the village chief told us to wait here, and he went inside to find Huang Banxian'er.
But after a long time, the village chief did not come out again!
I was shocked, could it be that he had been poisoned?
Chen Huabing waved his hand at me, signaling me not to be nervous and not to mess around. I also understand that there is no nervousness.
After another half an hour, the smoke from the roof kept rising into the sky, and I looked up in confusion and suddenly noticed something unusual. How could the smoke condense in the air instead of dissipating, instead forming a semi-enclosed form, enveloping the entire courtyard in the center?
