Chapter 40: The Strange Truth About the Villagers' Blindness (1)
Wen Wen Li was indignant, and after telling the story with righteous indignation, Ning Heku could only nod slightly in agreement with deep sympathy.
"Hahaha......" Shen Wuwu laughed even more heartily than before, and the laughter seemed to break through the roof and soar into the nine clouds.
He was tired of laughing, so he got up and covered his stomach, laughing and saying, "Chongxi has always been a victim of women, you are good!" It's an eye-opener to do the opposite! This girl of the Li family is even more strange than the old blame me. Hahaha, nerd, you're a poor person, I should cry for you! β
On the one hand, the Taoist family is a pitiful person, and on the other hand, he laughs mercilessly and unscrupulously, this kind of thing can only be done by Shen Wuwu.
For some reason, Ning Heku did not react as enthusiastically as Shen Wuxuan, but secretly sighed slightly, as if he had such a very bad encounter with Wen Li, in addition to expressing sympathy, he also felt that it was taken for granted.
After all, it was the prime minister of the Eastern Pavilion and the daughter of the Li family, the head of the hundred officials. Miss Li has been doing her own thing since she was a child, and she wants to marry her mother, which is not a big deal.
Only gentle courtesy will consider this to be a great and unreasonable thing.
Ning He pulled over a bamboo chair, let Wen Wen Li sit down, patted him on the shoulder, and silently expressed comfort and deep sympathy.
After the gentle salute was spit out, his face gradually became clearer, and his speech became more and more eloquent, so he made a bold statement to summarize: "Therefore, the three books have not been revealed, and the six rites have not been performed, and there is nothing between me and her, she is her, and I am me." Hum! I could never have been her fiancΓ©'s. β
After the gentle salute was finalized, he bit his lip and nodded, as if praising his own resolute courage and generosity.
Shen laughed uncontrollably, still sighing to himself, "Ouch hey! I'm laughing to death! I can't stand it! β
Xiao Wu outside the door glanced at him fiercely, Ning He Ku first expressed deep sympathy and was powerless, but now he frowned slightly, listened attentively, and his eyes were clearly extinguished, flashing, and then returning to meditation.
He heard someone outside the wall.
Yes, there are three people quietly hiding under the outside wall of the house, it is Li Wanyan and Su Er, who have gone and returned, and the three masters and servants of Qingzhu.
Su Er was biting her ears with her master, "Girl, when did you know that Young Master Wen was also here?" β
The latter's lips raised slightly, "Last night, the doctor suddenly asked me what it had to do with gentle courtesy. Okay, why did he ask about the nerd? β
"I see!" Su Er realized, and then said unhappily: "This Wen Gongzi dares to chew the root of his tongue in front of outsiders, talking about the girl, see if I don't tear his mouth!" β
Compared with Su'er's anger and righteous indignation, Li Wanyan was not happy, and said lazily: "It's okay, what he said is the truth." β
Su'er: "......"
After thinking about it, she was still angry, "Girl, why do you tolerate her every time, just treat him differently?" β
Li Wanyan smiled gracefully, "Because, he is my future husband candidate, so naturally I want to spoil him a little bit." β
"A future husband?" This word "election" is mostly a word that will appear after weighing the pros and cons, comparing the weight and strength, and calculating the gains and losses.
In her arithmetic mind, so far, no one has appeared who has more power and financial resources than gentleness.
Yes, Miss Li only values the power and financial resources of her family, and everything else is floating clouds.
However, it is not available for the time being, and it does not mean that it will not be in the future.
Li Wanyan is still the ghostly Li girl after all.
Su Er was naturally relieved of her master's decision, so she was no longer resentful, but looked up at the sky, "Girl, the sun has risen, how long will we wait?" β
"The sun is rising, the temperature is also rising, and those flying insects and birds in the flowers and plants will be unbearable heat, and they will soon be unbearable, and they should fly out, right?" She didn't answer the question, but she meant something.
In the consultation hall, Shen Wuwu, who was smiling weakly, suddenly smiled and froze in place, his eyes staring straight at somewhere.
Wen Lili was about to speak, but he raised his hand to signal him to shut up, and the latter followed his gaze in fear.
Above the stone table in the courtyard, a group of black flying insects had just flown in, first circling around the round table, and finally slammed into the hive.
And Shen's senseless attention was attracted by this group of "visitors" who came at a glance.
Ning Heku had already heard the subtle "buzzing" sound from the group of flying insects, and when Shen Wuwu was about to arch his back in vigilance, he raised his hand and flicked the thing between his fingers.
In his hands were two ordinary embroidery needles, and the extremely thin embroidery needles were snapped out by him, with two silver rays of light, silently shooting towards the beehive on the stone table.
When the silent and lightning-fast embroidery needle shot into the hive, the extremely slight vibration still alarmed the flying insects that were sucking honey, and they scattered and fled with the movement, and disappeared in an instant.
Shen rushed out of the door without a need, and retrieved the hive with a solemn face.
Wen Li's eyes were fixed, and there were still two slender black flies left on the hive, which had been nailed to them by Ning Heku's flying needle, and they were trembling their wings slightly, dying.
He was shocked, and unconsciously stretched out his hand and shook it back and forth in front of Ning Heku's eyes a few times, "Brother Ning, your eyes are better." That's not right! Even if it's okay, but you're still wearing a black scarf? How did you hit them without any mistakes? β
Ning He opened his hand with a serious expression, "Don't make trouble, Lao Wu, is it it......"
Gentle Rites: "?? "It? Who is it? The two of them waited for most of the day, just to catch two black flies.
Shen Wuxian took a closer look at the two black flies, and replied in a deep voice that Fang had never had before: "Yes, it's this black fly, and the culprit is it." β
Wen Wen Li stared at the black fly again and again, and saw that the expressions of the first two were serious, and they were even more inexplicable, "Brother Ning, uncle, is there anything wrong with these two black flies?" β
"If you take a closer look, how are these two black flies different from ordinary black flies?" Ning asked quietly.
Wen Wen Li took a serious look at the two black flies again, but after looking at them for a while, he still couldn't understand the point, "These are just two ordinary black flies that can be seen everywhere." β
Shen senselessly glanced at him, "Your eyes are very good-looking, but they are useless at all. Is this black fly ordinary? You see that its body is slender and long, its wings are shiny, and its whole body is black with purple and purple with black, can this be the kind of ordinary black fly that stings when it sees? Tell you, not only is it not ordinary, but it is also carefully bred by people. β
Gentle salute: "......"
He grew up to twenty years old, and although he was a nerd who was stupid at reading, as soon as he heard that this kind of black flies that could be seen everywhere and flew all over the sky were actually raised by people, he felt like a fantasy and unbelievable.
Not only him, but the old witch doctor who heard the sound also felt this at first glance, so he cautiously asked: "These black flies and insects have always been born and raised, and their lifespan is only about a month at most. To say that it was bred by people is indeed unbelievable and unbelievable. But for some reason, I found it hard to believe on the one hand, but on the other hand, I believed what the gentleman said. β
Gentle salute: "......"
He stood up and stared wide-eyed, "I also know that uncle won't lie, but this statement is really hard to believe, and I can't believe it!"
Shen sat silently, but said amazingly: "Although the black fly only has a one-month lifespan, it is capable enough to make the eyes of hundreds of people in your Feisha Village lose their light, and they are painless, unconscious, and silent. β
"Ahh Wen Wen Li gasped, and was so frightened that he took several steps backwards, far away from the two black flies, before he stopped.
Ning He sat quietly, he had already vaguely guessed the answer, but now that he heard Shen Wuwu say it himself, his heart still couldn't stop trembling slightly, and the hairs around his body stood on end.
The old witch doctor's body kept shaking and shaking, his knees were weak, and he struggled to regain his footing, but his brain kept "buzzing", and the horror in his heart was like a storm crashing on the shore, making him flustered and difficult to calm down.
The people of Feisha Village have been looking for the answer and truth for more than ten years, and once it is revealed and revealed in front of others, can he not be agitated?
It's not just the emotional turmoil, but also the disbelief, fear, horror, vulnerability, and fear of facing the truth after it is revealed.
The old witch doctor's whole body stiffened, his breathing stagnated, and after a long time, Fang clenched his fists, trembled and gritted his teeth and asked, "How can you see that these black flies are the original culprits and culprits who caused the villagers to be blind?" β
Although Wen Wen Li was still extremely afraid of the black fly, he still took two steps forward when he heard the sound, and listened to Shen's meaningless answer.
Shen Wuwu was indifferent to his usual indifference, got up and pulled the old witch doctor to sit down, and in order to make his unbelievable conclusion more convincing, he decided to go deep and use the most powerful facts to prove that what he said was true.
In this way, it can't be short, but the fact that it is like a piece of cloth is long, where to start?
Then I'll be a storyteller and say a piece of "Strange Stories of Jiuyong Village"!
Shen Wuwu began to tell the story, and at this tense juncture, everyone gathered around Shen Wuwu and listened to him tell the story without distraction.
"Two years ago, in the middle of summer, I passed through a small village called Jiuyong, and saw an old farmer holding a yellow ox on the edge of the field and whimpering sadly.
I look at it on the side is strange, since ancient times it has been a ox pulling a plow, it is a matter of course, why should this old farmer be so precious and distressed about a cow? Are you curious? Don't worry, the next moment, I will know why......
After the scalper got out of the field, I stared at it with bright eyes. The ordinary oxen pulled the plough, driven by their master, straight forward, and loosened the fields in regular rows. But what about the ox, it was good, it didn't go straight forward, it went three steps east and four steps west, five steps south, and six steps diagonally north, and a large field was ploughed by it in a mess, and it was a mess, and it was a mess.
And what about the old peasants behind it? Still reluctant to whip it a halfway, but sighed, and with great patience let it plow blindly in the field.
At first, I thought it was the scalper who was making a man, and I didn't obey it! Later, after looking at it for a while, it finally dawned on me that the eyes of the ox could not see, and in the field, the eyes were black, and I couldn't distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, and the head and tail of the field. But even so, it still diligently helped its master pull the plough and ploughed the field, and never stopped for a moment. β
As soon as Shen Wuxian stopped, Wen Wenli couldn't wait to ask: "Why can't the scalper's eyes see......
