Chapter 16: The Soul Returns
It was dark, and although there was electricity in the mountain village, there was no entertainment, so the lights were turned off early, and the mother-in-law hugged the mother-in-law, and no mother-in-law thought about when Zhao An would go back to work.
Lu Zhengling's broken mud house also has no electrical appliances, and even the light bulb on it was spliced by Zhao Li in the afternoon, after all, there is a vigil in the middle of the night, and if there is no light, it is not easy to blind the fire in a black light.
Lu Li sat on the wooden threshold, looking at the dark mountain village, as if he expected something to happen, and even the sound of insects was much less, as if the entire mountain village fell into silence.
Lu Li returned home, took some things from home, came back with some firewood and a large iron pot, took out the previous lighter, lit the firewood, put the iron pot on it, and then came to Lu Zhengling's corpse and cut a lock of hair from his head with scissors.
took out a white porcelain bowl, filled it with rice, mixed the rice with Lu Zhengling's hair, put it in an iron pot, and wrote the three words Lu Zhengling on the white rice with chopsticks, and then Lu Li came to the door and gently knocked on the edge of the white porcelain bowl with chopsticks.
In fact, if there is Lu Zhengling's birthday, it will be better if he writes it on paper and puts it in white rice, but whether it is the current Lu Li or the villager Lu Li, there is no Lu Zhengling's birthday in his memory.
"The soul returns, the soul returns......" Lu Li knocked on the white porcelain bowl, and said softly, occasionally adding Lu Zhengling's name, and gradually a gust of wind blew in the mountain village, and in the big iron pot, the raw rice was roasted and gave out a strange smell.
A person walked slowly from a distance, it was Lu Zhengling, and he said with a little ruffian: "Is the eldest nephew going to invite his uncle to dinner?"
Lu Li tilted his head slightly, and saw that his head was still there at the head of the bed, so he wrapped a rag in a large iron pot and carried it to the door, put it in front of Lu Zhengling, and said indifferently: "Eat." ”
Lu Zhengling didn't dislike it, he sat on the stone slab at the door, wiped his body twice with a pair of stained hands, and then went directly into the iron pot, grabbed the hot rice, mixed it with the hair inside, and stuffed it into his mouth.
After a while, those rice were stuffed into Lu Zhengling's stomach, and even those burnt ones were not spared, as if he had been hungry for a long time, he wiped his mouth, and said casually: "The eldest nephew invited his uncle to dinner, what do you want to ask?"
"Are you Lu Zhengling or Lu Zhengling?" Lu Li then asked, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Zhengling's eyes.
"What's the point, don't you just ask me if I died ten years ago, or the one who died ten years later?" Lu Zhengling said indifferently, then pulled his throat and said, "Big nephew, your cooking skills are not good, put some water next time." ”
"If you put the water, you can't write your name, and it's hard to say what you will get. Lu Li nodded, put the white porcelain bowl on the ground, and took out a small bottle of wine from his arms, which was the inventory of the villager Lu Li.
Lu Li didn't cherish it either, poured it all into the white porcelain bowl, pushed it in front of Lu Zhengling and said, "There is another problem. ”
"Ask, ask. Lu Zhengling looked at the bowl of wine and licked his mouth.
"Is it Zhao An who killed Lu Zhengling?" Lu Li stared at Lu Zhengling opposite, Lu Zhengling was the only exception, the original Lu Li thought that Lu Zhengling should not be counted among the seven dead, after all, he did not enter this real illusion, he also died outside.
So why did Lu Zhengling become one of the deceased in the mountain village blood case in the answer to the question and answer of the Dish Immortal? The mountain village blood case refers to the case in which Zhao An slaughtered 27 people in the entire mountain village, of which Zhao An and 27 are the key words.
"......" Lu Zhengling looked at Lu Li, and suddenly smiled happily, in fact, if Lu Zhengling cleaned up his body and put away that ruffian, he would be like an honest man: "Lu Zhengling has two, and there are two murderers, which one are you asking?"
"Zhao An, that guy was moving goods in the hotel in the city, I went to him to ask for money, the guy didn't want to, so I told some facts, and he gave me a hand, and then I ......" Lu Zhengling said that he was accidentally killed by the elevator back then,
"Understood. Lu Li nodded, this Lu Zhengling revealed a lot of information, which made things much clearer, I saw Lu Zhengling drink the wine in the white porcelain bowl, and then patted the ashes on his buttocks, and walked towards the outside of the mountain village.
"Big nephew, after coming out, Xiyue Town ate uncle's wedding wine, and uncle found an honest woman, that girl was so deceived. Lu Zhengling's voice came slowly, and then disappeared without a trace.
"Do you like wine? I'll go. Lu Li nodded, and things slowly became clear.
"There are six ghosts. Lu Li sighed, there were indeed twenty-eight people in the mountain village back then, but seven of them died uncertainly for special reasons, and they became non-existent ghosts after ten years of indeterminacy.
Ten years ago, someone went to Zhao An, who was moving goods in the hotel, to ask for money, but was refused, and then became angry and shook out the matter of Zhao An and Ma Yaoyao, and then was pushed to the ground by the angry Zhao An and accidentally killed by the elevator.
Zhao An didn't bring back that person's body at all, but hurriedly returned to the mountain village to ask Ma Yaoyao, but directly bumped into Ma Yaoyao and Zhao Li, and then the bloody case happened.
Later, for unknown reasons, the existence of seven of them became uncertain, including the person who died in the elevator, until Lu Zhengling died in that hotel and became a substitute for the dead, and "Lu Zhengling" came back to life.
Lu Li recruited "Lu Zhengling", not Lu Zhengling, in this space, there are still six ghosts that do not exist, and these six ghosts are also looking forward to finding a replacement for the dead ghosts, anyway, there will always be twenty-seven people.
"We don't know how these six ghosts died back then, and we don't know where they are now, so it's a bit of a headache. Lu Li patted his head, and he didn't know what the "unknown reason" was that caused all this.
"Chen Qiao and Brother Long should know something, and they may even be here for this thing, but why do they have to bring Wang Wencheng?" Lu Li squinted his eyes, some problems have been solved, there are more problems, it is really so.
"What are you doing?" An indifferent voice suddenly sounded on the side, Lu Li turned his head, and saw Zhao An standing not far away with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a gloomy face.
A little spiritual light flashed through Lu Li's head, in the original situation, Zhao An went back to the mountain village to find Ma Yaoyao, so there was a bloody case in the mountain village, so why did Zhao An not do this this time, but brought Lu Zhengling's head back?
One thing has been determined a long time ago, the murderer is Zhao An, he is now being locked up in Beike Prison, the death of twenty people has long been a foregone conclusion, and now the decision is only the remaining six places, so this Zhao An is a fake, a ghost!
Lu Li's eyes flashed, and he saw "Zhao An" stretching out his hand behind his back, holding a kitchen knife full of blood in his hand.
