The second case, the ancient village secretary 16

If the previous speculations are true, then there is no way to answer Kikoko's question. But if Shen Zezhi's speculation is completely overturned, it doesn't make sense that he can't summon the enchantment between the ghost cha and Jiaojia Village.

Ji Ziyue remembered one more thing at this time: "Where is the Chunjun sword that Jiao Yuzhou stole back now?" ”

Shen Zezhi thought for a while and said, "I can only ask the village chief about this matter." ”

The two of them went out after eating and were about to go to the village chief, and as soon as they went out, they happened to meet Jiao Hongzhou, who was about to knock on the door. Shen Zezhi introduced Ji Ziyue, and then asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou looked at them and seemed to be hesitating about something, Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue glanced at each other, and he said, "For the affairs of your father and sister, the condolences are smooth." ”

Only then did Jiao Hongzhou make up his mind and said, "I have something very important to tell you. ”

The summer morning was not too hot, and the three of them simply sat down at the table in the courtyard.

Jiao Hongzhou said: "This is the secret of our family, only my father and I know." My mother is actually not from Jiaojia Village. ”

Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue were very surprised, Shen Zezhi asked: "Your mother is not from Jiaojia Village, she doesn't know it herself?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou said: "Yes, I also listened to my father." At that time, my mother didn't know how to walk into Jiaojia Village by mistake, she was only four or five years old at that time, and she didn't remember anything at all. When she came, my grandmother's daughter fell ill and died, and my grandmother relented and adopted her. My grandmother's original daughter has always been frail and sick, and she has been recuperating at home, so not many people have seen her, and even if they have seen her before, they don't remember what she looked like. So after my mother was adopted, no one found out, except my dad. He was ten years old at the time, and he happened to see this incident when he was out playing, and he was the only person who knew about it except for his grandparents. ”

Jiao Hongzhou: "Because my mother was too young when she was adopted, she didn't know about it herself. Later, when I grew up, my father married my mother, and she got sick after giving birth to my sister and me. ”

Noriko asked, "Sick?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou said: "Yes, she has a very serious illness, and it is normal when she is awake. When she was sick, she hit someone, and if she didn't let her hit someone, she would hurt herself. Until that time, she got sick and hit my sister, and my father accidentally hit her head when he pulled her away......"

Shen Zezhi: "Manic schizophrenia." ”

Jiao Hongzhou smiled bitterly and nodded: "Yes, but our place is too closed." At that time, my dad and I didn't even know it was an illness. My dad and I thought my mom was evil. My dad said that we can't come to Jiaojia Village, and outsiders are not protected by the gods here, so my mother will get sick and die. ”

Shen Zezhi looked at him and asked, "The village chief doesn't know about this?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou shook his head: "When my mother was sober, she always forgot what she did when she was sick, and she thought that the injuries on her body were all caused by her father." That's why there are those rumors in the village. ”

Shen Zezhi said: "The village chief said that your mother's body was disposed of by him and your father, do you know about it?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou said: "I know. I already remember it at that time. Later, my dad started talking about these things. The village chief didn't know the truth of the matter, he always thought that my mother was killed by my father. ”

Shen Zezhi thought for a while and said, "Does your sister know these things?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou said: "She knows, but she doesn't know that my mother is not from Jiaojia Village." ”

Shen Zezhi nodded, Jiao Hongzhou thought for a while and said, "My father told me a little about Jiaojia Village when he was alive. He said the place was not a good place. He said that there was something in Jiaojia Village, and this thing would eventually destroy Jiaojia Village. But everyone didn't think so, so the people in the village regarded it as a treasure. So my dad told me to go out to work and try not to go back to the village. ”

Shen Zezhi asked, "Do you know what that thing is?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou shook his head: "I don't know, the people in the village are very shy about this matter." He looked at Shen Zezhi and stopped talking.

Shen Zezhi asked with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly." ”

Jiao Hongzhou said: "I know you, you are a policeman." You're the ...... The Special Task Force, right? I've heard you're amazing. ”

Shen Zezhi smiled and nodded and admitted, it was not surprising that Jiao Hongzhou recognized him, he worked outside all the year round, and the special case team had solved several major cases before, and it was understandable that he had heard of it.

Shen Zezhi asked: "Some time ago, there were a few outsiders in the village, do you know?" ”

Jiao Hongzhou shook his head: "I rarely go back to the village, and the last time I came back was during the Chinese New Year." ”

Shen Zeyi didn't ask anymore when he heard this, and Jiao Hongzhou said again: "It's better for you to ask young people about things in the village." Older people are more convinced of the traditions of the past, and they are very repulsive to foreigners. ”

Shen Zezhi: "Thank you, I see." ”

Leaving the old stubborn man's house, the two walked towards the village chief's house, and on the way, Kiko asked, "Team leader, what should we do?" ”

Shen Zezhi said: "Let's ask the village chief first, of course, you can't believe the village chief's words too much." At this time, he remembered one more thing: "Yao Xianxian said that she killed the old stubborn, but she didn't kill the old stubborn." So who did she kill? ”

Ji Ziyue said: "Yes, who is the person she killed?" ”

Shen Zezhi said: "From the time we entered the village to the present, only the old stubborn and Yingzi have died in the village. ”

The more Kiko heard what he meant: "In other words, there is a dead man hidden in the names of these living villages. ”

Shen Zezhi nodded: "What I'm worried about now is that there is more than one dead person among these living people in Jiaojia Village. ”

Ji Ziyue asked, "Didn't you open the eyes of heaven?" Can't tell if they're alive? ”

Shen Zezhi shook his head: "This is also a place that I can't see through, even if this place is life and death, I can't see it." ”

The two of them walked to the village chief's house as they spoke, and the village chief was busy working in his yard, when he saw Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue coming in, he hurriedly put down his work and greeted them. Since he knew that Shen Zezhi was not an ordinary person, his attitude towards Shen Zezhi was immediately a 180-degree turn. From the village chief, it is completely impossible to see the uprightness of the mountain people.

Shen Zezhi asked directly: "Some time ago, an outsider came to the village, right?" ”

The village chief didn't expect Shen Zezhi to be so direct, although he had already guessed that Shen Zezhi's coming here might have something to do with that person. "Yes, there is such a person."

It's already reached this point, and there's no need to play pantome anymore.

Shen Zezhi said: "Where is this person now?" ”

The village chief said, "I don't know. ”

Shen Zezhi looked at him, his expression was disbelieving.

The village chief said, "I really don't know. The man didn't enter the village, he went directly to the back mountain. ”

"Back Mountain?" Shen Zezhi was puzzled.

The village chief nodded: "Yes, many people in the village have seen it." But when I saw him go to the back mountain, I didn't pursue it. Anyway, if you go to the back mountain, you can't come down. ”

Shen Zezhi asked: "He never appeared again?" ”

The village chief said, "No, I didn't come down after I went up the mountain." We all thought he was going up the mountain for that thing. But. The village chief smiled: "No matter what he went up the mountain, he can't come down." ”

Shen Zezhi was silent, he went up the back mountain twice by himself, why was the village chief of the Way of Nature so sure. The back mountain is simply rampant with demons. Those who don't have a little bit of Taoism go up and go to death. But where did the sword he took go?

Shen Zezhi asked, "Did you see what he was carrying when he went up the mountain?" ”

The village chief thought for a moment and said, "He carried a bag. ”

Shen Zezhi nodded, this matter is over. The village chief asked, "You haven't solved the matter of Yao Xianxian yet." ”

Shen Zezhi frowned and asked, "Whose child is Jiao Dahong, and who else is in the family?" ”

The village chief said: "He is an orphan. ”

"Orphans?" Shen Zezhi.

The village chief nodded: "That's right." ”

Shen Zezhi looked at the village chief and had a terrible guess in his heart. But he didn't show anything to the surface. He said, "I'll deal with it now." ”

A smile immediately appeared on the village chief's face: "Okay, do you need me to find you a few people to help?" ”

Shen Zezhi shook his head: "No need." ”

Shen Zezhi said and left with Ji Ziyue, and after walking out of the village, Ji Ziyue asked, "Do you really want to deal with Yao Xianxian?" ”

Shen Zezhi shook his head: "Of course not, but it's no longer safe for Yao Xianxian to stay in the big banyan tree, someone is eyeing her, and they must find ways to deal with her." Before, she insisted on looking for Jiao Yanzhi, but I was not sure how to persuade him to leave, but now that she has found Jiao Yanzhi, it is estimated that she should be able to leave with us now. ”

Ji Ziyue asked: "The Jiao Yanzhi you are talking about is Jiao Dahong?" ”

Shen Zezhi nodded: "Jiao Dahong...... I know what happened to him, but I haven't found the reason yet. ”

Ji Ziyue said again: "Then will Yao Xianxian go with you if he finds Jiao Yanzhi?" ”

Shen Zezhi said: "You'll know when it's down." ”

The two of them walked to the big banyan tree and happened to see Jiao Dahong chatting with Yao Xianxian. Yao Xianxian looks like a girl now, and she can't see the yin aura of a female ghost at all. Ji Ziyue only now realized what Shen Zezhi said: there is no clear line between life and death here. In Jiaojia Village, Yao Xianxian is not only not afraid of the sun, she looks like a living person.

Seeing Shen Zezhi and them coming, Yao Xianxian floated down from the canopy: "You are here." ”

Shen Zezhi introduced Ji Ziyue to her with a smile, and Yao Xianxian's guard was lowered. Shen Zezhi said: "You can't stay here anymore. ”

Yao Xianxian looked at her: "Why?" ”

Shen Zezhi said: "You have been plotted several times, and the only way to ensure your safety now is to leave here, and I will hide you for the time being." ”

Yao Xianxian asked, "Why do you hide me?" ”

Shen Zezhi took out the talisman from his clothes: "This is a spirit gathering talisman, you temporarily attach it to this talisman paper, so that you can carry it with you." ”

Yao Xianxian thought about it for a while, looked back at Jiao Dahong who was walking here, and said, "Then I want to be with Yanzhi." ”

Shen Zezhi glanced at Jiao Dahong and said, "Okay." ”

After Jiao Dahong came over, Shen Zezhi told the matter again, Jiao Dahong was a little at a loss, he looked at Yao Xianxian for a while, and nodded solemnly.
