Old man Xu lied to us a total of three times. The first lie is that Sun Erxiao did not lend money to anyone, the second is that he did not see Sun Erxiao capsizing at all, nor did he see anything big on the river, and the third lie is that Old Man Xu accepted the fish money that Sun Erxiao gave him.

After Sun Erxiao sold the big fish, he once asked Old Man Sun to give part of the fish money to Old Man Xu, but Old Man Xu felt that he had only done a little favor and had no reason to ask for that money, but Zuihou He still didn't resist Sun Erxiao, and got a hundred yuan from Sun Erxiao.

Afterwards, Old Man Xu mentioned this incident in a game of pai gow that Sun Erxiao did not participate in. Perhaps because of jealousy, the people who played with him at the time spoke ill of Sun Erxiao after hearing it, and one of them mentioned that Sun Erxiao's family had gold bars.

The person who said this later also died in a well, that is, the well that had been planted in the demon array.

Soon after that game of pai gow, Sun Erxiao went to Old Man Xu and complained that Old Man Xu told others about the money, because several people in the village went to Sun Erxiao's house one after another to borrow money. After complaining, Sun Erxiao also said with a cold face: "Money is earned by one's own ability, and when you see others have money, you will blush, this kind of person is really fucking disgusting." ”

Old man Xu didn't know if Sun Erxiao had said similar things to others, but three days later, Sun Erxiao disappeared on the river.

That day, Old Man Xu did go fishing on the river with Sun Erxiao, but in the process, someone from the village came to call him, saying that something had happened to his family. Old man Xu returned home but found that nothing had happened at all, and when he went back to Jiangshang again, Sun Erxiao was gone.

After Sun Erxiao's body was discovered, Old Man Xu immediately realized that something was wrong. He had wanted to find the police and tell him everything he knew, but his child disappeared that day and did not return until 7 p.m., with a kitchen knife and a note tied to his back.

There were only two words written on the note: Blackfish.

Old man Xu understood that someone was threatening him. He was afraid that he would harm his children by talking nonsense, so he followed the tips on the note and made up a lie about the revenge of the black fish to the villagers and the police investigating the murder of Sun Erxiao.

This secret buried deep by Old Man Xu has become a knot in his heart, and now he has finally spit out all the secrets, and his whole person seems to be completely liberated. Later, Old Man Xu told us something that everyone in the village was hiding, that is, the truth about the death of Sun Er's little wife.

It is indeed true that Sun Er's wife jumped into the river, but the reason is not because of the death of her husband and son.

The people in the village were very jealous of Sun Erxiao because of three things: the first was that he had gold bars hidden in his house, no matter where the news leaked out, but many people did know about this matter, which also planted the seeds for him to be killed; The second is that his wife is very beautiful, so beautiful that the whole village of men is jealous; The third is that his luck is outrageous, not only does he win every gamble, but he also goes to the river to fish, but Sun Erxiao can catch a big guy every time.

Sun Erxiao's wife's family is from another village, and after the death of her husband and son, she did not go back to her parents' house immediately but stayed at home every day. There are many rights and wrongs in front of the so-called widow's door, and the men in the village who have long coveted Sun Erxiao's wife go to Sun Erxiao's house every three or five times, nominally to help, but this kind of "help" gradually began to escalate into hands-on feet.

Finally one day, seven or eight children in the village attacked his wife at Sun Erxiao's house. Afterwards, Sun Erxiao's wife didn't even wear clothes, and ran out of the village with her hair scattered, and committed suicide by jumping into the river.

Because there were too many people and families involved, the people in the village decided that after some discussion, Zuihou decided that the whole village would not mention this matter, and that Sun Erxiao's wife could not accept the death of her husband and son, and chose to commit suicide under the double blow.

After Old Man Xu broke out this shocking news, I immediately asked him if the four people who died one after another thirty-three years ago were all involved in the gang rape of Sun Er's little wife.

Old man Xu nodded yes, and told me that there is only one person left who is still alive at that time, and that person is called Wu Qiang, and he now lives in Sichakou Village in the downstream direction of Jiangkou Town.

As soon as Old Man Xu said the name of Sichakou Village, Zhang Xi stood up and said excitedly: "There is a rule!" Murderers kill people regularly! ”

After speaking, Zhang Xixian quickly flipped out a map with his oversized phablet, and then pointed to the map and said to us: "Look at this, this is Heitong Village where we are located, from here along the Songhua River to the east is Jiwang Village, and then Lianjiangkou Town, out of the town and then to the east is the four forks, completely along the river from upstream to downstream killing!" If the murderer's goal is to avenge Sun Erxiao, then he is likely to choose the four forks to continue to kill. ”

Regardless of whether the murderer is a human or a ghost, Zhang Xixian's discovery is definitely valuable. I immediately asked Old Man Xu to write out the names of the other people who gang-raped Sun Er's wife. When the list came out, Tang Hui immediately called and told Lei Qishan about the list.

In less than half an hour, the news from Lei Qishan's side came back.

In addition to the four people who died in Heitong Village are on the list, the five people who died in Jiwang Village and Lianjiangkou Town are all related to the people on the list, so it can also be concluded that the next victim is very likely to be Wu Qiang of Sichakou Village, or Wu Qiang's relatives in Sichakou Village.

Wu Qiang may indeed deserve to die, but Wu Qiang's family and relatives are innocent, and the safety of Wu Qiang and his family should definitely be ensured first in this situation.

Considering that the murderer may not be a living person, it is obviously not enough to rely on the police in this case, so the safest way is for Qiao Wei to rush over to help. So a few of us decided to go our separate ways, Tang Hui and I continued to stay in Heitong Village, while Qiao Wei followed Zhang Xixian to Sichakou first to carry out some proper ghost protection for Wu Qiang and his relatives.

In this way, I will naturally take over the ghost detection work of the well behind the hotel. After all, I've been messing with Qiao Wei for more than half a year, and I know a lot of ways to deal with ghosts. Before leaving, Qiao Wei told me a few ways to judge the root of the ghost, and gave me a few fool-like fire talismans with good spells, and when I used them, I only needed to light them and throw them out.

In addition, Qiao Wei also left me the glass hourglass pendant containing the fire wolf, and he said that the fire wolf would show up to help me out when I was in big trouble. It's just that this fire wolf is just a one-time talisman for me, and I can't act too casually just because I have it, I still have to be more careful.

After Qiao Wei and Zhang Xixian left, my side also took action immediately. There was still nearly an hour before it got dark, and during this time, Old Man Xu also took me, Tang Hui, and the newly recruited Zhu Yue to the cemetery located in the mountain behind the village, and found the graves of Sun Erxiao's family of three there.
