After the village chief finished speaking, I felt sick and turned around to vomit.

Last night, the old lady deliberately cooked two large pieces of meat, Lao Liu was vegetarian and didn't move, and I ate one and a half pieces!

When the village chief saw me retching on the side, his face wrinkled, and he said:

"It's been all night, and it's useless for you to vomit your stomach"

Lao Liu didn't care, and asked the village chief:

"Who is Guan Jun, he is very panicked when he mentions his fellow countrymen"

The village chief's face showed melancholy.

"Guan Jun is a very evil person, when he was in the village, he went out day and night, and ran to the mountain, and every morning when he went to work in the field, he would meet him coming down the mountain with his hands full of blood!"

After speaking, the village chief grinned and then recalled:

"Later, he became more and more excessive, and whenever someone in the village died, as soon as the front foot was buried, he went to dig the grave with the back foot, and everyone said that he went to the wrong way."

Just as he was talking about this, a little brother ran in from outside in a panic, and shouted at the village chief with an excited expression:

"The village chief is not good, Aunt Li is dead"

The village chief was stunned when he heard this, and took the little brother's arm and asked:

"Aunt Li's physique is so good, what's the matter?"

"I don't know, it's said that I was bitten by a snake while picking mushrooms in the mountains."

The village chief didn't ask any more questions, and hurriedly followed the little brother towards Aunt Li's house.

Lao Liu and I naturally wouldn't be left behind, so we hurriedly followed.

Aunt Li's family happened to be behind the house surnamed Liuwaguan, and when we arrived, it was already crowded with a room of people.

Aunt Li was placed on the ground, covered with a white cloth, and the relatives around her were crying bitterly.

Seeing the village chief enter the house, everyone hurriedly gave way, and the village chief lifted the white cloth and glanced at it, and asked softly:

"What the hell is going on?"

A man next to him wiped a handful of tears and said:

"My aunt went up the mountain with her neighbor to pick mushrooms in the morning, and was bitten by a poisonous snake in the back mountain"

As he spoke, the man couldn't help crying again.

The family is not wealthy, and the house is very simple, but it can be seen that this family is hardworking and kind farmers.

Lao Liu walked to the deceased and lifted the white cloth to take a look.

Aunt Li's face was pale, her eyes were closed, and there were two small holes a few inches below her right ear, which looked like bite marks from poisonous snakes.

The village chief shook his head, sighed, and said:

"I've never seen such a venomous snake on the mountain behind our village, why did it die so quickly?"

After speaking, I couldn't help wiping a handful of tears.

"Maybe it's fate, hurry up and go to Li Dong at the entrance of the village to order a coffin, and see if the day will bury people."

The man looked at the village chief helplessly and said:

"The family's money has just built a greenhouse, and a coffin costs more than 1,000 yuan, and my family doesn't have that much now."

Although I am not a good person, and my salary in the city is not high, I grew up in the countryside and have a natural affection for the simple villagers in the village.

I stepped forward and said to the man:

"I have to bury it first, I'll give this money first, so I should lend it to your family"

The man looked at me gratefully, and the village chief added:

"These two are from the city, and now the family has invested their money in the vegetable field, and they are not rich, or you can take it first, and sell the vegetables to return to the family."

When the man heard this, he happily clenched my hand and thanked me vigorously.

The man and I didn't delay any longer, and he drove the ox cart to the village entrance to order a coffin.

This store is not big enough to do the white business in the village.

There were a few coffins at the door, as well as some tied paper figures, scalpers.

The boss was a tall, thin man with a long face and small eyes, and a black mole on the tip of his nose.

I saw the two of us enter the house.

The boss hurriedly greeted him.

"What's wrong Li Gang, why are you here?"

The man said in a hoarse voice:

"My aunt was bitten by a poisonous snake when she went up the mountain, so she came to order a coffin"

When the boss heard this, his face didn't change much, but he just pointed into the yard with an "oh" and said:

"Ready-made"

It's a bad thing to hear, as if it's ready to wait for the dead.

Li Gang didn't say anything honestly, I changed my face and said angrily:

"Boss, you're in the dead man's business, isn't it bad to talk like this?"

The boss glanced at me and said solemnly:

"Yo, from outside the village, this little brother doesn't seem to know the rules, and he chokes with the boss in the white shop, which is even more unlucky."

After saying that, the boss stared at me and laughed.

When I came to buy a coffin, I was in a bad mood, but the boss actually smiled weirdly.

My little temper came up at that time, and I opened my mouth and scolded:

"You fucking laugh at the shit, you can't do business"

Seeing that I was in a hurry, the boss pointed to a red coffin in the yard with his right hand and said:

"The coffin, as well as the paper man and scalper in the yard, are all pulled away, one thousand eight"

Li Gang saw that I scolded the boss, and he was embarrassed to persuade me.

"Don't be angry, brother, let's not be like him"

I glared at the boss, threw out 1,800 yuan from my wallet and slapped it on the table, and went to the courtyard with Li Gang to carry the coffin.

After a lot of waste, the coffin was carried to the ox cart.

When I got out of the yard, I glared at the boss again, thinking that this old boy dared to say a word again, I had to beat him today!

The boss stood at the door, didn't speak again, just stared at me with a cold face and waved his hand.

Li Gang saw me driving the ox cart while driving, and said:

"Brother, thank you very much, I will exchange you for this money when I sell the vegetables"

I shook my head and said:

"Let's deal with your aunt first, don't talk about money"

"Brother, outsiders just don't welcome people, like the boss of white things, I've been used to it in the past few years"

I was stunned and asked:

"You're from out of town?"

Li Gang nodded and said:

"I've been here for two years, and when I first came here, I thought this place was very good, and the villagers were very enthusiastic, but later I found that their enthusiasm was for a while, and they were very repulsive to outsiders."

Li Gang waved the whip in his hand and continued:

"Brother, did you come to this village?"

I whispered:

"It's not a visit, I'm here to inquire about someone named Guan Jun, but I haven't found it yet."

Hearing this, Li Gang turned his head to look at me and said:

"Guan Jun I know, but now this person no longer lives in the village"

I was surprised and asked:

"Have you heard of Guan Jun?"

"I heard that Guan Jun was a good person before, but later it was said that he was addicted to some scary crooked ways, and everyone was afraid of him."

Li Gang sighed after saying this.

"Ahem, these are all from my aunt, she is a local, I am here to join him"

I hurriedly asked:

"Which of the three Guan families is Guan Jun?"

Li Gang said softly:

"In front of my family, the richest Guan family, my aunt had a good relationship with Guan Jun's wife in the early years, and I heard that when his mother died, Guan Jun disappeared."

Guan Jun turned out to be a member of the glazed tile family!

This surprised me, since listening to the words of the village chief, I have always thought that this person who is afraid of Guan Jun will be from the old lady's family in the west of the village.

What a twist and turn!

After pulling the coffin back, the village chief went to the funeral ceremony, and Lao Liu and I were outsiders who didn't want to participate, so we took the first step.

When I went out, I hurriedly told Lao Liu what Li Gang said.

Lao Liu was not surprised when he heard this, but made me stunned by one sentence.

"This dead Aunt Li was not bitten by a snake"

I was amazed to hear that.

"What do you mean, Lao Liu, you mean murder?"

Lao Liu shook his head and said:

"Wait, it's not over yet."

In the evening, the village chief arranged for the two of us to live in the old house in his backyard, which was simple but enough for people.

I washed up and lay down with Lao Liugang.

I heard the sound of footsteps in the courtyard.

Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door.

I got out of the covers and opened the door.

Lao Liu frowned, and whispered:

"Be careful, something is wrong"

I picked up a brick from the ground and gently opened the door.

It was actually Li Gang.

Li Gang was holding a box in his hand, and when he saw me, he whispered:

"Brother, I found this box when I was packing up my aunt's things, and I remember my aunt mentioned it, saying that Guan Jun's wife was going out for a while, so she put the box at her aunt's house, and then died before she could leave.

I didn't open it, can you see if it works? ”

As soon as Li finished speaking, he put down the box and rushed back to the vigil.

I was curious to put the box on the kang and opened it, it was full of some prescriptions, and these prescriptions were very strange and scary, what duck blood stained steamed buns, earthworms boiled wolfberry.

I was sick when I saw it, and I was about to throw the box aside, when Lao Liu took out a photo from under these prescriptions.

Seeing this photo, I can't help but feel a shock!

This is exactly what I saw in the house of the village chief of Huyinshan at that time, Lao Wu, Liu Yunbo, Lao Tang and two other comrades-in-arms wearing camouflage uniforms and hooking shoulders and backs.

"Lao Liu, why does Guan Jun's wife have this photo, I know, one of the other two people must be Guan Jun"

Lao Liu stared at the photo for a long time, put down the photo for a while, and shook his head.

"I know who Guan Jun is"

With that, point to one of the people in the photo.

I looked at Lao Liu's finger and was immediately confused.

"Liu Yunbo?"

Lao Liu nodded and said:

"No wonder when Wang Dazhong first mentioned Guan Jun, I always felt that I had heard this name, it turned out that this old boy had changed his name!!"

As soon as Lao Liu said this, I suddenly realized!

I remember that the village chief of Huyin Mountain told me that Liu Yunbo and Lao Wu were brothers who wore a pair of pants before going to the demon cave, and later found out that the baby and a few people never got along with each other.

When Liu Yunbo sent the bronze bell to kill people, I asked Lao Wu if he knew Liu Yunbo, and Lao Wu said with a aggrieved face that he didn't know, it wasn't that Lao Wu lied!

It turned out that Guan Jun changed his name and surname, and became Liu Yunbo!!

Thinking about it this way, it makes sense why Liu Yunbo sent the evil bell to Lao Wu, he is the sworn enemy of Lao Wu mentioned by Wang Dazhong, Guan Jun!

I see!!

Before I could recover from the shock, I heard a sharp knock on the door.

"Knock Knock Knock"

I thought maybe Li Gang remembered something again, so he got up and went to open the door.

When I opened the door, I saw that the front yard was empty!

I was about to close the door when I caught a glimpse of something on the floor.

Two papier-mâché coffins!!
