Chapter 182: Conversation
A few of us, you look at me, I'll look at you. Now no one knows what this knife edge means. In fact, we didn't think that there were people in this forest, and we also guessed that there were probably some seedlings in this forest. And the best-case scenario is that grandpa has also been to this forest, and it is better for us to see someone who knows the ins and outs of everything. But the corpse in front of him is too weird, and if such a tragic death is a living person, he will have some consideration in his heart. I looked at Kong Sanye, after all, he was the most experienced of us here, and only he probably knew what was going on.
"Let's bury him," the big head said, looking at me earnestly, I knew what the big head was thinking. "It hurts your brother-in-law so much, why don't you stay here to accompany her" The crooked mouth was still unforgiving, and I glanced at the crooked mouth. After thinking about it, he said, "It's right to bury it, the old man of the Ah Feng family in this village has cleared the Gu poison for me, and the people in this village can be regarded as my lifesaver." Moreover, the business done by our people is too damaging to yin morality, and it can be regarded as a good deed, so that when we are dying, we will not think about it and we will not have seen a good thing. It's also a matter of asking Lord Yama to deduct a little red flower for us."
What I said, the big group and the crooked mouth still listened. I didn't say anything, the four of us immediately prepared to start digging a hole, but Kong Sanye stopped me. "Don't bury it here, the water on both sides of this river bank is rising too fast, and if you bury it here, you will definitely be blistered," the third master said.
As soon as we heard what the third master said, it made sense. He carried the corpse to the top of the riverbank. Just after dragging 20 meters, suddenly there was a loud "click", a thunder in the sky, and a dark cloud floated in, burying the big sun that was shining in the sky just now. Suddenly it darkened, and then the rain fell as if there was no negotiation. We were taken aback by the sudden heavy rain, and the corpse could not take much care of it, so we quickly found a place on higher ground and set up a tent to prevent rain.
The big head kept looking at the corpse when he set up the tent, and I understood that the big head was a man in the mood. The things promised to others will definitely be done, especially the way that man died is really tragic, considering that he is still thinking about how to tell the woman in Ah Feng Village. Crooked mouth didn't care, while setting up a tent, while joking with the group, the two of them chatted so interestingly. The big head showed a rare loneliness in the words of the two people. He may not understand that he has clearly done a good deed, how can he be so disgusted by crooked mouths. Kong Sanye and I have always been the targets of being taken care of by the old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant, each of us holding a poncho under the big tree and waiting for the three of them to set up a tent. Suddenly, Kong Sanye stabbed me in the waist and said, "Qiangzi, what do you think about the death drift that the big head saw?" ”
"Me? , I really don't have a clue, but what about you, the third master? I paused slightly, thought about it, and asked the third master.
"According to what the big head said, it should have been a month and a half ago in the mountain, depending on the degree of decay of the corpse, it should have been dead for more than half a month, so" The third master habitually paused again,
"Third master, let's talk well, don't say something like this, okay. You're in a hurry to kill me" I'm embarrassed to tease the third master so bluntly, so I can only say that.
"So that person must have been out of this mountain three months ago. Moreover, we have been in the mountain for three days, so it should be the murder of the person who happened two days before we entered the mountain. The third master swore and said. Just as the third master said this, the three people with big heads and crooked mouths had already set up the tent and prepared sleeping bags here. After the odds were done, I came over in the rain with a crooked mouth and invited me and the third master into the tent.
After we all entered the tent, the third master put aside the speculation that the person just now should have been killed two days before we entered this mountain, and then kept silent, ready to listen to our analysis. I glanced at my crooked mouth and motioned for him to speak first, after all, he was thoughtful, and whatever he said would not make a big mistake.
"I feel that the cause of this person's death is very suspicious," he said with a crooked mouth, almost without thinking. After listening to it, I also feel that what I said makes sense, because every murder case we usually encounter is always for a reason, or because of the hatred such as the murder of the father, which is as deep as the sea, or because of some reason for seeking money and killing people. Although we are not familiar with this man, after a rough introduction by the big head, we can immediately understand that this person must have no money, so the theory of seeking money should no longer exist. And the life of the Miao people here is too simple, even if there is any deep hatred, it will not hollow out other people's bodies and gouge out that person's eyes. I said that my thoughts were in line with the crooked mouth, and everyone has always recognized it.
The third master took the lead in saying, "So, we have ruled out the two most common reasons for killing, so please think about it, what other reasons are worthy of everyone's reference, using such a tragic method to torture a person to death." After speaking, the third master looked at me, but I had a few answers in my heart, and before I could say it, the big man said, "Is it a sacrificial ceremony?" The third master didn't give the big head a specific answer, just nodded, and then continued, "You see if there are any other possibilities" I understand the third master's words, the big head's answer is not unreasonable. But if it is a sacrifice, then the dress of the corpse will definitely change according to the god of the sacrifice, not the same dress as before the corpse died, and if it is a sacrifice, even if it is a sacrifice to the river god, there is no need to hollow out a person's internal organs and remove their eyes and throw them into the river, which is very contradictory. Because the torture must be carried out in a significant number and in an organized and disciplined manner. That's why the third master said so. I thought about it and said,
"Is it possible that there are some Gu worms in captivity," I said the biggest doubt in my heart directly.
After listening to this, the third master said, "The captive breeding method of Gu worms in ancient legends is to put a number of poisonous insects in a ding, bite each other, and then leave the most poisonous insects, and then call them Gu." Regardless of whether the legendary method is right or not, no matter how many methods there are for the spread of Gu cultivation, the most important thing is that it is easy to recycle, if it cannot be used by the Gu releaser, then the poisonous insect is simply a poisonous insect. It can't be called a Gu" The third master said the answer he understood best, as soon as I heard it, this old fox really has a set of analysis questions, if the Gu worm can't be easily recycled, and can't be used by the person who releases the Gu, then it has no value, so he nodded yes. Suddenly, this is a crooked mouth and said, "Is it possible, those people who release Gu have any special methods to make those Gu worms return to their hands by themselves" This is also the result of crooked mouths thinking about it carefully, the third master said, "This is not a bad explanation, but we know too little about Gu worms, what we say now is a blind guess, this is also a result." Let's think about it, what other reasons are there besides this reason that we don't know" This method of analyzing problems is also called brainstorming, everyone brainstorms and removes the most unlikely reason, then the only possibility is left. A few of us racked our brains, and we didn't have any better ideas, so we looked at Kong Sanye together. The third master understood what we meant, but he still bought a guanzi "Qiangzi, if raising Gu worms is a reason, do you have any other ideas, it is more similar to this, but it is not a sacrifice" I heard this, if it is not according to the method of raising Gu worms in the land of Miaojiang, it is not a sacrifice, and it is not a personal grudge, I can only say the primitive customs of the primitive tribe. I said, "It's not a festival." We entered the mountains, the compass has been broken, it is very likely that there is something living in this deep mountain that we don't know, and we don't know the external environment at all, and what primitive tribes live in a primitive way" Looking at my serious speculation about this primitive tribe, the big head first objected
"No way, no matter what kind of primitive tribes they are, when they are active, they still have footprints of production and life. I've been in charge of clearing the way at the front of our team, unless those individuals are exactly like animals, otherwise, we won't be like that when we walk those roads, and we can't be in Old Man Feng's village without hearing anything about this," the big head said the reason for his objection.
"You know a fart" crooked his mouth and was about to refute, when there was suddenly another thunderclap in the sky, which completely eliminated the nature of everyone's conversation. Kong Sanye said again, "The rain at noon today will definitely not stop, but let's eat at noon."
The big head thought for a while and said: "After this rain, there must be mushrooms under the big tree, but now that it's raining, we can't get out" We thought about it for a while, and what the big head said was not unreasonable. Crooked mouth was a little anxious, lifted the curtain of the tent, and suddenly shouted, "Damn, why is the brother-in-law with the big head missing." The crooked mouth suddenly shouted like this, and several of us were startled, but the width of the curtain was limited, and I couldn't go out to see it together. At this time, the big man ripped off my poncho and walked out. The crooked mouth pulled the big head behind him without holding it, so he borrowed a raincoat from Kong Sanye and walked out. There were several thunderstorms in the sky, and we couldn't see clearly in the heavy rain after we went out with our big heads and crooked mouths, but when the rain fell, we also faintly heard a few shouts in our deafness, but they all disappeared in the heavy rain.
