Qin Yiheng pointed to those rough animal totems for me to see, and said, "These are all one kind of animal, but the posture is different, and I don't know what the specific meaning of the Dao is expressed." ”

His observation was really careful, these totems were indeed an animal, but it was completely impossible to tell what kind of animal it was, in short, it was certain that it had four legs and a tail.

I don't know if Lu Dao is too sleepy, and his head is completely clouded. What's going on? Fang Wanjin and the mysterious old man in the hat, let the two of us buy this thing back, just let us watch the menstruation of the old man Fang's ancestor in power hostess? Isn't this a fucking psychopath? Besides, this thing has to be a certain number of years, even if you are afraid of getting pregnant with something, it will not be buried under the house, don't you remember it?

Besides, if a child is no longer like a human being, it is only a congenital malformation, and from a biological point of view, it is impossible for a person to conceive an animal.

Thinking about it like this, I seemed to be a little enlightened, and asked Qin Yiheng: "Is it that this family has a family history of genetic disease, many children are born with congenital malformations, because science and technology were not developed at that time, there was no way to find out whether there were defects, so the family could only try to avoid it through superstitious means, so they would attach so much importance to this matter, after all, the heir was a family affair at that time." ”

He listened and thought for a while, and said, "Your analysis is very logical, but after all, it's just pure guessing now, and everything still has to wait for Fang Wanjin to come back to find out." ”

Talking about this, seeing that it was about to be evening, Qin Yiheng looked at his watch and said that the opinions had been exchanged almost completely, so he would go back first and let me make up for sleep at home alone, and I would talk about it when I woke up. With that, he put the house away and left with the bird cage.

After Qin Yiheng left, I took a shower and lay on the bed alone for a long time. It may be that Red Bull drank too much and never fell asleep, and when he finally became sleepy, the phone rang again. Originally, I didn't want to answer it, so I glanced at the phone number in a daze, and I had to pick up the spirit to answer it again, because this phone was the number left to me by the old man in the hat before.

The call came directly from the old man, and the tone was still that stinky virtue. He told me on the phone that he had taken the liberty of delaying my time last time, so he made a special trip to find me a business this time. Speaking of the word "business", he also deliberately emphasized that it was the business of the house and asked me if I was interested.

I had a bad impression of this old man, and even when he talked about business, his tone was still commanding. I was very upset, hesitated for a moment but did not dare to refuse, and then I thought that I could take the opportunity to inquire about the hat; Second, the last time I saw him in the car, he was not a poor man, and maybe the business was very profitable. I'm also a businessman, so I'm definitely looking at money.

So, I told the old man that I couldn't make the decision myself, and that I needed to talk to one of my partners before I could give him an answer. Who knew that the old man smiled when he heard this, and said, "No need to ask, I have already called Qin Yiheng, and I have already agreed over there, just wait for you to speak." ”

When I heard the old man say this, I felt a little uneasy. The phone didn't hang up here, and I couldn't call Qin Yiheng, so I had to send a text message to Qin Yiheng, just saying: "Have a business?" I didn't expect Qin Yiheng to reply quickly, he was probably holding his mobile phone, and the content of the text message was even more concise, just one word: "Hmm." ”

Since Qin Yiheng agreed, I naturally had no way to refuse, so I made an appointment with the old man on the phone about the time and place of the interview. The old man told me that he was still in the teahouse and the private room last time, and that he was waiting there tonight, and then hung up the phone.

As soon as the phone hung up here, I immediately dialed Qin Yiheng. Before I could open my mouth to ask, he preemptively answered. He told me that the old man had also called him, and he didn't know where he got the number, and whether he could do business or not was a matter of later, and that the purpose was to meet the old man.

After we met, we went into the teahouse together, and I led him into the private room.

Pushing the door open, I was surprised that this time the old man was sitting alone drinking tea and wearing that hat.

When the old man saw us coming in, he didn't say hello, but just pushed two teacups over where we were sitting, and didn't pour us tea.

After sitting down, I kept observing Qin Yiheng's expression. He was very calm, poured himself a cup of tea, and after drinking it, he didn't speak, just stared at the old man, as if waiting for the old man to speak first.

The old man didn't even raise his eyes, and drank three cups of tea in a row before he looked at the two of us and asked, "Which of you two is responsible for signing the contract?" ”

I raised my hand at the old man, indicating that it was me.

The old man looked at me, "um", and continued: "I have an old house, in my hometown, I haven't been back for many years, and I can put it away, so it's better to pass it over to you." ”

The old man stared at me again, as if waiting for me to make a statement. I was very helpless, he didn't even say the general situation of the house, and I didn't know the location, location, and area of the house, how could I express my position?

I had no choice but to give him a symbolic "ah" first, trying to get him to continue. Who knew that he stopped talking, took a few sips of tea, and then said: "There are still some old furniture in the house, all of which are tables, chairs, cabinets, etc., and they can also be disposed of cheaply for you, they are all old furniture, and they are also very valuable, what do you think?" ”

The old man looked at us with meaningful eyes as he spoke. I was very entangled, in this situation, I couldn't make eye contact with Qin Yiheng.

I was in a hurry, when I felt Qin Yiheng quietly reach out and tap my thigh, and quickly wrote an OK on my leg with his fingers.

Now I finally took a reassurance, so I nodded to the old man, said yes, and asked when I could go to see the house.

When the old man saw that I had agreed, he stood up and walked out, saying as he went, "There will be someone to contact you, and this is the end of today." "I opened the door and went out.

I wanted to get up and chase after it, after all, I didn't have time to ask about the hat, so it can be seen that Qin Yiheng didn't mean to move, so I simply sat down and asked him what he thought. He took a sip of tea, thought for a while, and said, "This old man is really deep in the city, and that hat is indeed the same as the one left by Liu Cripple." But if the old man doesn't want to say it, even if he tortures him, he won't find out anything. ”

"And the main thing is ......," he said, and stood up, and with his hand pulled a needle out of the teacup that the old man had just used.

This made me stunned, this needle is very thin, if you don't drink it carefully, won't it kill people?

I asked Qin Yiheng what it was, and he told me that this needle was quenched on the puppet, which is commonly known as the prickly villain. This villain, as the name suggests, is to make a puppet out of straw or cloth, tie a red rope around the waist, hide or nail the person's name and birth date eight characters, and then at the time of extreme yin - this hour is not necessarily twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, to be judged according to the local feng shui yin and yang - the puppet rushes to the location of the person written on the birth date, pierce the needle, seven seven and forty-nine days later, the person who is pierced will have a flying disaster.

This is different from many film and television dramas or folk tales, it is not that if you pierce the position, the corresponding part of the person will hurt, on the contrary, after the villain is pierced, the person who is pierced will have a short period of prosperity, because the villain is actually a bureau that concentrates all the fortunes in forty-nine days into one day of decay.

This quenching puppet, not only in China, but also in all parts of the world, there are similar witchcraft, secret methods and derivative arts, and the general operation is also similar. One of the derivative techniques requires a whole piece of the person's fingernail to be pricked, which is also hidden in the belly of the puppet, and each time a needle is pricked, it is said that the person's pain will be transferred to that person. After 49 days of piercing, the needle is removed and soaked in water to drink, and the person who is pierced will slowly recover his health, while the person who has been pierced will become ill.

This kind of magic is somewhat similar to what is shown in many film and television dramas, but few people know it. At this point, he asked me if I had noticed that there was something on the old man's index finger, and that the nail on that finger was gone, and that the old man was probably suffering from some serious illness.

I really didn't pay attention to it just now, but I don't think this old man looks like he will die soon, and this magic will really work? I asked Qin Yiheng, and he shook his head and told me that he had only heard the older generation talk about the effects of many magic techniques, but he had never seen anyone practice them personally, so he couldn't tell whether it was useful or not, whether it was hearsay or not.

I nodded, and said in my heart that this kind of harmful method should not be useful. But I'm still very puzzled, even if I saw that this old man was treating himself through magic, it had nothing to do with the house, why did he agree so easily?

When asked, he said that when the old man spoke just now, he mentioned furniture intentionally or unintentionally, and there was obviously a hint in his eyes, so he guessed that this old man would not just mention it casually, I am afraid that there is something we are looking for in his so-called furniture.

After he reminded me like this, I understood, this old man also has a wardrobe at home? The wardrobes that he had seen in the ancestral hall were now in his hands?
