The fat monkey followed his line of sight and happened to see the blue cat's tearful face. He grinned and said with affection: "Alas, the stupid cat is also pitiful, after dozens of days of hard work, the daughter-in-law is gone, and the father is gone." ”

As if he remembered something, he hurriedly asked Tian Hua: "How did Lao Lan die?" ”

Tian Hua's face was solemn: "Lao Tian died on the second floor of his house. Because it was the fifth person to die in the past two months, we made a special report. ”

He paused and said expressionlessly: "The forensic autopsy said that he died of a heart attack. ”

"Isn't this hanging with your feet - tricking the hanged man?!" The fat man said loudly.

Although the fat monkey said it was ugly, there was some truth to it. According to folklore, the hanged ghost must find another hanged person before he can escape and be reincarnated, otherwise he will hang in the dead place forever and become a lonely ghost. So the hanged ghost will try to persuade people to hang themselves. And the persuaded person can also deceive the hanged ghost in turn, hanging himself with his feet, not only hanging, but also deceiving some hanged ghosts with low IQ.

Qu Nan glared at him fiercely.

The fat man's face turned pale, and he changed his words in a low voice: "It's okay if I'm wrong?" It's not people who deceive ghosts, it's ghosts who deceive people! ”

Damn fatty!

Although he shouldn't laugh on this occasion, Qu Nan was still amused by him, and the corners of his mouth curved, revealing a bitter smile.

Lao Tian was also amused by the fat man, but he immediately regained his sad face: "No matter who deceived whom, anyway, five people have died in the village now, and as for the livestock, they have all died to the point of being cut off." I'm not afraid of your jokes, my family still has a few nests of rats, and they bite some clothes or something from time to time, but now ......"

He spread his hands and said helplessly, "I haven't seen them for a long time." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qu Nan and the fat monkey thought at the same time, and they had overlooked something.

"Cat demon!"

The two looked at each other and shouted in unison.

Tian Hua's eyes widened, looking at them inexplicably, not knowing what they were talking about.

Qu Nan grabbed him and walked to a secluded place again: he lowered his voice and asked, "Is the black cat that often goes to Mrs. Liu's house still alive?" ”

"Alive! What does this do, you ask? ”

"What about Mrs. Liu? She's still gone? Qu Nan didn't say that word, but vaguely replaced the sensitive word with the word "absent".

Tian Hua understood what he meant: "Here, good people still have good rewards, and the old lady is alive and well!" It's just that during this time, I always wore a shroud and hung out, which made people panic. ”

Speaking of Mrs. Liu, Tian Hua talked more.

Tian Hua told the two that Mrs. Liu is a well-known warm-hearted person in the village, kind and honest, and treats people sincerely, no matter who has any difficulties in ten miles and eight townships, as long as she can help, she will definitely help.

Even Tian Hua himself has not been less benefited by the old lady. Speaking of this, Tian Hua carefully looked at the expressions of the two: "I haven't asked you yet, are you relatives of the Lan family?" From the city? ”

Qu Nan smiled and shook his head: "We are friends with Mao Yu, and he helped us." My name is Qu Nan, and his name is Fat Monkey. ”

Tian Hua put his mind at ease and leaned closer to the two of them: "No wonder the cat cries when he sees you, sure enough, I knew you before." I thought it was ......"

Tian Hua told the two brothers that he originally thought that Qu Nan and Fat Monkey were plainclothes policemen.

In fact, when the old man Ma fell into the dung pit and drowned, the village had already gossiped that the dead people had hit unclean things. Then the large and small livestock in the village died one after another, and a few people wearing white coats came to the epidemic prevention station, and they didn't check any epidemic for a long time.

By the time Lan Jingming died, the rumor of the haunting was even more noisy, and it spread loudly, and the people of the entire stone trench village were in turmoil.

There was no way, the village could only call the police, hoping that the police could give an explanation.

At that time, there were three people from the municipal criminal police team who came to handle the case, two hairy young men in their twenties, and another middle-aged man who was nearly forty years old and wore glasses, and was a forensic doctor.

The two young men examined the scene, and the forensic doctor examined Lan Shrew's body. After saying a few words they didn't understand, they came to the conclusion that there was a massive myocardial infarction, and it was over.

Tian Hua told a few policemen about the villagers' suspicions of being haunted.

The middle-aged forensic doctor was okay, but the two young policemen had wrong eyes at that time, staring at Tian Hua up and down, and the contempt in their eyes was so obvious.

Being stared at with such eyes, Tian Hua was also a little uneasy in his heart, and he had to explain with a smile: "The rural people are relatively ignorant, and it is normal for some messy legends to be. ”

"Normal?" A red-faced young policeman spoke: "As the village head, you take the lead in engaging in feudal superstition, do your superiors know?" ”

The hat was a little big, Tian Hua's face was a little unbearable at the time, and he fought with the red-faced policeman: "Then tell me about the nine days, the weather is freezing, is it normal for a seven-year-old child to dig out sparrows with his bare ass in the middle of the night?" Is it normal for people to drown in a dung pit that is so shallow that it just reaches their waists? And Lao Lan, who has always been as strong as a cow, and who carries a hundred pounds of wheat for ten miles without even breathing, you actually say that he has a heart attack? ”

I was going to fish, but I didn't pay attention to sweeping the turtles......

Hearing Tian Hua question his examination results, the middle-aged forensic doctor, who originally had a good attitude, was also a little unhappy: "Comrade Village Chief, I have a scientific basis for coming to this conclusion, the cause of death of the deceased Lan Delong is indeed a large-scale myocardial infarction, but what he experienced before his death, whether his illness was caused by fatigue or mood swings, it is not very clear." ”

Tian Hua suddenly seemed to have found a breakthrough point: "You mean, Lan Jingming may be scared to death?" ”

The middle-aged forensic doctor shook his head: "I didn't say that, but excessive fright can indeed cause heart disease." ”

The two young policemen were full of impatience, and the other little man pulled the middle-aged forensic doctor: "Let's go, Director Chen, I can't tell this kind of ignorant person." ”

was taught face-to-face by two hairy boys with hairless mouths, and said that he was ignorant, Tian Hua was very unhappy. But he is not a brainless person, and he did not raise this issue in his later work.

"The reaction of the police is normal, and anyone who has received an atheist education will firmly believe that there are no ghosts in this world, and even we, if we hadn't actually seen that thing, would never believe that there would be such a thing." Qu Nan looked at Tian Hua's angry expression and comforted him.

"You don't think that's right, too?" Tian Hua became excited: "I have long felt that something is wrong, but I don't know where to start, what cat demon did you two just say?" Is it suspicious of the black cat? If there is a problem with the black cat, then Mrs. Liu is in danger! You know, the cat runs to her house every day! ”

The fat monkey pouted: "Come on, the old lady herself doesn't look like a good person!" I've seen ...... with my own eyes."

"Nonsense!" Tian Hua interrupted the fat monkey very unceremoniously: "What right do you have to say that?" If Mrs. Liu is a bad person, then there will be no good people in the world! ”

The fat monkey was startled by his tone, and was about to say what the two of them saw that night, but when he saw Qu Nan winking at him again and again, he had to stare at him and said: The fat master won't tell you, and when he catches the handle of the old ghost, he will reason with you.

Qu Nan and the fat monkey stared at each other, both of them dejected: was Mrs. Liu well disguised, or was what the two of them saw that day an illusion?

Tian Hua looked at the two of them like this, and also felt that his tone just now was a little rushed, and he smiled again: "I'm not good at speaking, don't be angry, but Mrs. Liu is really a good person, and it is impossible for her to hurt others." ”

Qu Nan didn't answer his words, his eyes froze, and his dark eyes stared at a person walking in the distance: "Who is that person?" ”

Tian Hua followed his line of sight: "He is Mity, the night watchman of Yizhuang. ”

From Qu Nan's eyes, about three feet above Med's head, there was a gray aura rising and rolling, and this gray aura was dispersed by a stream of air from time to time, but after a short while, the gray aura gathered again and rolled over Med's head.

Qu Nan's pupils constricted like the tip of a needle.

There's something wrong with this man!

He gave the fat monkey a look, smiled at Tian Hua, and said politely: "Okay, Chief Tian Village, I've been bothering you for a long time, let's go over and see the cat leftovers." ”
