Section 166, the tragic death of the village chief [I]
"It's because you're too nervous and tired, that's why your eyelids keep jumping, don't worry, everything is normal with the villagers, by the way, what about Xiaobai? Why don't you see where they are? ”
After Liu Shoucai came back, he didn't see Xiaobai and Badou, so he couldn't help but ask. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"They went out and said that they were going to the river with the villagers to catch fish, and now it is the season for the fish to be harvested, and the village chief said that we will have a whole fish feast in the evening."
"Whole fish feast? This is pretty good, when the time comes, we will have a few to barbecue, there has been no barbecue for a long time, I really miss it! ”
"Yes! We had a good time that night, and the demon road won't come tonight, so we can rest assured for the time being. ”
"You're using Sky Voyeurism again?"
"Well, but it's okay, I don't have anything to fight back again, I'm already handy, so you don't have to worry about anything."
Gui Gu Song smiled, and Liu Shoucai saw that Gui Gu Song's face was the same as before, and there was nothing bad about it, so he was also relieved.
"Try to use as little as possible in the future, now is an extraordinary period, try to ensure that your energy is at the highest peak, and they are not easy to deal with."
"I know, okay, when are you going to be so Rory, let's go! We also went to the river to check out and relax. ”
"These people are really, I just told them, try not to go out, it's not too late to go out when the demon road is solved, but in a blink of an eye, they forgot what I said."
"You can't blame them, everyone is actually very vigilant, besides, even if the demon road is coming, then we have to eat, drink, and sleep, anyway, the river is at the mouth of the village, and we are not afraid that someone will lurk into the village, there is a patrol, it's okay."
Seeing that Liu Shoucai was unhappy, Guigu Song hurriedly coaxed him, for fear that Liu Shoucai and others would give those people a look.
"Okay, I know what you mean, aren't you just worried that I'm giving those people a bad face? Okay, I'm not going to turn around later, since everyone wants to take it easy, let's take it easy! Anyway, there is no big crisis at the moment. ”
After Liu Shoucai thought about it for a while, he finally agreed to go to play with Guigu Song, anyway, they didn't come to the demon road right now, instead of being afraid of wolves and tigers here, it is better to be happy first, if something really happens, then it is not too late to wake up at that time.
After coming to the river, seeing so many people and children in the river, Xiaobai also had a lot of fun, and Liu Shoucai's mood was soon driven, with Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song joining, the riverside became more and more lively.
"Why don't you see the village chief? Didn't the village chief say that he was going to prepare a whole fish feast with us tonight? Why didn't he come over to catch fish? Could it be that the villagers can't do their jobs? ”
Liu Shoucai deliberately laughed a few words, but everyone looked at each other, and really didn't find where the village chief was, and they all suddenly became puzzled.
"The village chief was still here just now, why did he disappear all of a sudden?"
"We haven't seen where the village chief is until now, when has he been here?" Seeing Badou's puzzled look, Liu Shoucai thought for a while and said.
"Even before you came! I also saw him fishing there with a frame, and then you came, and I didn't pay attention to him. ”
"Forget it, you keep playing, I'll go find him first, if he dares to be lazy, see how I play him."
Liu Shoucai smiled lightly, and then left the river to find the village chief, when Liu Shoucai returned to the village chief's house, he saw the village chief lying in the courtyard covered in blood, and he had already lost his breath at this time.
"Damn, how can this be?"
Seeing that the village chief's body had turned cold, Liu Shoucai was not sad that it was fake, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only inform Guigusong about the situation of their village chief.
After receiving Liu Shoucai's story about the tragic death of the village chief, Guigu Song and Badou hurriedly rushed back, and the villagers also ran over, and when they saw the village chief who died tragically in the courtyard, everyone showed a sad look on their faces.
"Master Liu, can you know who killed the village chief?"
"I don't know, the village chief's memory has been erased, and there is no way to find out what happened to him before he died."
"Have the people of the Demon Dao infiltrated yet?"
"Well, I guess so!"
Liu Shoucai sighed, although he didn't want to think about it either, but now all the conditions showed that the people of the Demon Dao had lurked in, otherwise how could they explain why the village chief died.
"Everybody, come here, now I'm going to check everyone's code, and if you forget, you'll automatically stand on the right."
Liu Shoucai thought of the code words, so he shouted to the people, and those people soon stood in a row, and no one forgot the code words, it seems that the people of the demon road already knew the code words of a certain person in those villagers, otherwise they would not be so arrogant.
"What to do, they all know the code language, it's not easy for us to investigate!"
"Stupid, don't you look at their memories? Secret words can be known by others, but the memories of a lifetime cannot be inherited by others. ”
Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song quietly discussed on the side for a while, and then asked Xiaobai and them to start inquiring about the memories of those people, fortunately, everyone was very cooperative, but after a circle, they found that everyone was normal, and there were no lurkers coming in.
"What's going on? Their memories are all normal, there is nothing to doubt, could it be that we guessed wrong? ”
After checking his memory, Guigu Song walked back, his face was depressed, and Liu Shoucai lowered his head and thought about it, it seems that this matter is really troublesome, code words or something, it is not absolute, along with memory, sometimes, it can't be trusted.
"Brother Guigu, do you know any spells that can change a person's memory?"
"Probably not! Anyway, I haven't heard of it, I just know that there is something that can control a person's mind, but the previous memories can't be changed casually, did you think of something? ”
Liu Shoucai's question made Guigu Song very puzzled, so he couldn't help but ask regardless of everyone looking at them.
"I think that man must be among us, but we haven't seen who he is for the time being, and besides, the village chief is having a good time by the river, why did he suddenly come back? What did he do during this period, and didn't he go down to the river? Why are the clothes all dry, and there are no baskets and fish that he brought back, this is so abnormal. ”
"What do you mean?"
"If you look at the arms and legs of the village, there are traces of being tied with ropes, and they have been bruised for a long time, not like the accident that was suffered today, so I guess that the previous village chief must have been pretended, and the real village chief was tied up, and then the village chief broke free and was brutally killed after being found."
"Since it's been discovered, why don't you continue to tie it back?"
"I guess that the murderer must not have had time to tie the village chief back again, so he killed him, when I came back just now, although the village chief's body was already cold, but the blood at the corner of his mouth had not completely coagulated, so I guessed that the village chief was killed when I came back, and it was only because of the coldness of his body, so we mistakenly thought that the village chief had been dead for a long time."
"And what's the matter with the coldness of his body? For people who have just died, the corpse will not cool down so quickly. ”
"I guess the village chief was tied to a cold place before, so his body was always cold, which is also the reason for our misunderstanding."
"I see, so where is the cold place here? If it is kidnapped, it must not be very far away, otherwise, when the village chief appears, we will be able to find out, and he has not left the village yet. ”
Guigu Song and Liu Shoucai both thought about it, and suddenly a person in the crowd shouted loudly: "I know where the cold place is, that place used to be the place where we stored grain, because I was afraid that the food would spoil in the hot weather, and that place was cold all year round." ”
"yes, yes! I also remembered, but that place had not been used for a long time, and since we settled here, we haven't been to that place. ”
Soon there was a riot and chaos in the crowd, and everyone began to discuss that place, Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song's eyes lit up, and they hurriedly asked everyone to take them to that place.
After following everyone to the place where the food was put before, Liu Shoucai couldn't help but wrap his clothes tightly, it was really cold here, it seemed that the village chief should be tied here without a doubt, because there were still traces of friction on the table legs here, and it was the most recent.
"It seems that the village chief is tied up here, look here."
Liu Shoucai was the first to see the traces of being tied, so he pointed to that place for everyone to see, and after everyone looked at it carefully, they all sighed.
"Alas! Poor village chief, how could he suffer such pain, it is all because we think too much about ourselves, so we will ignore the village chief, if we can pay attention to the village chief as usual, then the village chief may not be killed. ”
Those people began to blame themselves, Liu Shoucai saw that everyone's expressions were not abnormal, and he was relieved of them in his heart, in fact, he was really afraid that someone would take the opportunity to sneak in just now.
"Now that the village chief is also dead, we don't know who did it, but I believe that that person must still be in the village, we will go to the village to search now, and if we encounter a suspicious person, we must report it quickly, Xiaobai, you go to the sky to monitor, if there is a suspicious situation, tell me quickly."
"Okay, I see, let's all come with me!"
After Xiaobai left with everyone, Liu Shoucai and Guigusong sat in the granary and talked.
"Brother Liu, do you think this matter will really be done by someone from the Demon Dao?"
"I really can't figure out anyone else besides him."
"But aren't all his people doing it directly? When did kidnapping still be used? This is not in line with the identity of the demon Dao! Anyway, we all came here clearly, and he didn't have to do it. ”
As soon as Guigu Song said this, Liu Shoucai began to wonder in his heart, could it be the man in black? But it's not right, the man in black is so powerful, it stands to reason that he won't use such vulgar means, since it's not the two of them, isn't it the person who the village chief has offended before?
"Do you think it could be someone the village chief has offended before? Or is there someone who wants to kill the village chief, so they do it? ”
"There is a possibility, but we can't be sure at the moment, so we can only guess, and when the murderer is found, everything can be solved."
"I'm afraid that the murderer will not be found at all, or rather, the murderer will not exist at all."
What do you mean by that? Could it be that the village chief committed suicide himself? This is also ridiculous, not to mention how the village chief committed suicide, just this kidnapping, how did he do it? ”
"Alas! What a headache! Why is it so troublesome? Annoying. ”
Liu Shoucai was depressed for a while, what he hated most was thinking about this kind of problem, but now he had to think hard, and Guigusong was carefully checked at the scene, for fear of missing a link.
"Brother Liu, come and see, what is this?" Just when Liu Shoucai felt depressed, Guigu Song pointed to a pool of black stains on the ground and shouted to Liu Shoucai.
"Strange? It seems to be black dirt, but where does this place come from? It's weird. ”
After seeing the things on the ground, Liu Shoucai immediately became puzzled, it stands to reason that there can be no black soil in this place, but there is black soil in this warehouse, although there are not many, but it is very conspicuous.
"You say, could this be brought by the murderer?"
"There is a possibility, this kind of black soil was not found on the village chief just now, so it must have been accidentally left by the murderer."
"Why are you so sure that the murderer accidentally left it, maybe he left it on purpose, in order to confuse our audience, he deliberately left such a false clue."
"It's still uncertain at the moment, forget it, why don't we investigate the villagers first, and ask them who knows about this black soil, maybe someone knows about the black soil."
"Let's go and ask them."
Liu Shoucai didn't want to delay at all, so he pulled Guigu Song and ran towards the direction of the villagers, and after seeing those villagers, Liu Shoucai took the black soil on the handkerchief and asked those people.
"Do you know where the black dirt is?"
"No! None of this kind of dirt exists near our village, and to be honest, we rarely see this kind of dirt, it's not something we have in this place. ”
The villagers all said what they knew, and Liu Shoucai had to suspect that the black soil was deliberately left by the murderer to confuse the public, but it was also possible that the village chief instructed which person was the murderer.
"Okay, we know, you guys go get busy!"
After sending those people away, Liu Shoucai squatted on the ground with a frown, not knowing what he was thinking.
"What's wrong? Did you find anything? ”
"You say, could this be a message from the village chief? He knew that he would not be able to escape this fate, so he left us a signal to suggest who was the murderer. ”
"But where did the black dirt village chief get it from? Could it be that he knew that he was going to be kidnapped, so he put black dirt on his body in advance? It's also too unlikely. ”
Guigu Song vetoed Liu Shoucai's speculation in one bite, in fact, Liu Shoucai didn't know anything about it in his heart, but this black soil was too reminiscent, and it seemed that the identity of the murderer was really difficult to guess.
"Brother Guigu, let's do it! Let's go to the village chief's house to look for some clues. ”
"That's all it takes, let's go!"
Guigu Song sighed, he hurriedly felt so tired, but there was no other way at the moment, he could only follow Liu Shoucai to find clues, and after returning to the village chief's house, Liu Shoucai began to look for clues around, but he was busy for more than an hour, and still didn't find any clues, which made Liu Shoucai immediately discouraged.
"Damn, I'm tired of uncle, I don't have any clues, I'm busy in vain."
"Alas! Do we give up just because we didn't find a clue? ”
"How is that possible, take a break and continue to look for it, I don't believe it, that murderer can do this thing so secretly, it's a big deal that we can use magic to see again."
Liu Shoucai also began to compete, he didn't believe that he was even an ordinary person, of course, unless he was as powerful as the demon Dao and the man in black, then he would still be a little jealous, although the demon Dao was no longer defeated by him, but the black fog of the demon Dao was powerful!
Liu Shoucai and Guigusong rested for a while, and began to continue looking for it, and after working for more than half an hour, Guigusong finally found something in the grass in the corner of the yard.
"Brother Liu, come and see, could this thing be left by the murderer?"
With Guigu Song's shout, Liu Shoucai hurriedly ran over, and when he saw what Guigu Song was holding in his hand, Liu Shoucai's eyes lit up, and his mood became excited.
"Eight achievements are yes, hurry up and check it with a spell to see if it was left by the murderer."
"Hmm."
Guigu Song nodded and began to check, and after a while, he opened his eyes, but his face was embarrassed.
"What's wrong? Any strange findings? ”
"Alas! See for yourself! I don't even know how to explain it to you. ”
Gui Gu Song sighed, handed the thing to Liu Shoucai, and then turned his head and went to the well to fetch water to wash his hands, Liu Shoucai saw that Gui Gu Song was reluctant to say, he checked it himself, and after reading the information transmitted by the thing, Liu Shoucai also had a strange look, and the thing in his hand was immediately thrown out.
"Hehe......"
"Damn, it's disgusting, it's intentional."
Liu Shoucai scolded while rubbing his hands fiercely, as if he had really touched something dirty just now, in fact, the thing that Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song checked just now was an anal plug at all, but they didn't think of it for a while.
"Aren't you weird? How could such a thing fall from the courtyard of the village chief's house, and it was jade, and it seemed to be worth a lot of money. ”
"I really don't know, or you should go check it out."
"Gotcha, don't disgust me, I don't want to be so perverted and keep staring at an anal plug for a long time."
