Panzhou Mansion, Exian County, Tanxi Village.

Chu Nan had already entered the village yesterday, spent some money, and lived in a farmer's house.

I learned from the peasant households that people had been dying here since a month ago, and one person had to die every night, and now thirty-six people have died.

"Auntie, do you mean that in this village, there will be a death every night?" Chu Nan was in the courtyard of this farmhouse at this time, chatting with the old lady of the family, looking for clues.

"Yes, one person dies every night, except for one day." The old lady's eyes are not very good anymore, but her memory is not bad.

"What exceptions? What day is it? Chu Nan asked, this might be a clue.

"On the night the official messenger came, both officials died on the same night." The old lady said.

Chu Nan wanted to ask something, but at this time, someone came, it was the old lady's daughter-in-law.

"Mother, didn't Miss Chu give you two taels of silver yesterday? Give it to me. "The daughter-in-law's surname is Chen, and everyone calls her Chen.

The old lady's husband's surname is Li, and others call her Mrs. Li.

When Mrs. Li heard Chen's say that she wanted money, her face fell: "What do you want money for, didn't I give you money this month!" ”

"How can that money be enough, give it to me quickly!" Chen said in a rough voice.

"Don't give it!" Mrs. Li directly refused.

"Do you want to keep it and take it into the coffin? If one dies one day now, maybe you'll die that day! Chen said with a vicious face.

"You shameless broken woman, you dare to curse me to death!" Mrs. Li was so angry that she got up and wanted to arrest Chen.

"Ignore you, old immortal!" Chen saw that Mrs. Li was furious, so she ran away.

When Chen ran away, Mrs. Li sat back angrily and said to Chu Nan:

"Miss Chu, I'm smiling at you."

"It doesn't matter, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read." Chu Nan said.

"Hey, my daughter-in-law, she only knows how to spend money all day long, and she doesn't know how to make money, and she doesn't care much about it, so I take care of my son's salary, and I give her a little bit every month to pay for the family's expenses, do you say that I do this, is it wrong?" Old Lady Li stared at Chu Nan with her eyes that were not very bright and asked.

"Old lady, I haven't married yet, and I don't know about these things, you get busy first, I'll go out for a walk." Chu Nan was perfunctory and went out, she didn't like to mix with the rights and wrongs of other people's homes.

There are about 100 households in Tanxi Village, with a population of about 500 people.

A few days before the strange incident began, everyone was in danger and did not dare to leave the house, and after a few days, people found that it was useless to leave the house, and people would still die.

"Wangcai, how to investigate this strange incident? No clue at all. Chu Nan chatted with the pupil in her pocket.

"I don't have a clue, that's what it's called weird." Hitomi Wangcai comforted Chu Nan and said.

"Yes."

Just as Chu Nan was chatting with Tong Wangcai and shopping at the same time, many people suddenly gathered on the street, including people wearing the clothes of disciples of Jiuji Mountain.

Chu Nan hurriedly stepped forward to take a look.

"Who killed my junior brother!" A disciple of Jiuji Mountain roared on the street, and there was a corpse at his feet, and the corpse was wearing the clothes of a disciple of Jiuji Mountain.

Chu Nan took a closer look, and the corpse was purple all over, but he didn't see any external injuries, just a terrifying expression.

After a while, another group of Nine Pole Mountain disciples came.

"Senior Brother Wang Chao, what's wrong?" A disciple of Jiuji Mountain who had just arrived asked.

"Senior Brother Li Fan, my junior brother is dead!" Wang Chao was very frightened, his junior brother was fine yesterday, but today he died inexplicably.

"How did you die?" Li Fan asked, the village they arrived in yesterday, due to the large number of people, they lived separately, who knew that on the first day, one person died.

"I don't know, as soon as I woke up, I didn't see my junior brother go out for a long time, so I went in to call him, and I found him dead in bed!" Wang Chao's tone trembled, although he knew that he would die if he did the task, but he didn't expect that on the first day, his junior brother would die.

Li Fan squatted down and went to inspect the corpse.

After a long time, he said: "There are no external injuries, and there are no traces of poisoning, but it looks like ......."

"Like what?" A disciple next to him asked.

"It's like scared to death!" Li Fan said.

All the disciples had their hairs standing on end, scared to death! How horrible is this to see?

"Hey, a few descendants, you just came to our village." At this time, an old man who watched the excitement spoke.

"Yes, old man, how do you know that we just arrived?" Li Fan asked.

"Because in our village for the past month, people have died every day, and everyone's death is like this, and we are no longer surprised." The old man said.

"So many people died, did the people in the village find anything? For example, who killed them, or what did the deceased have in common? Li Fan asked.

"I don't know this, there doesn't seem to be any pattern, but there were two officials who came to our village before, and they died on the first night, maybe outsiders are easy to die." The old man replied.

Then Li Fan asked the old man some questions, except for outsiders who are prone to death, the other dead are all from the village, and they have nothing to do with each other, and they have nothing in common, like random deaths.

Chu Nan listened to it for a long time, and secretly used the system's search skills to search the surroundings, but found nothing unusual.

When it was time for lunch, Chu Nan went back, and Mrs. Li's family was in charge of the meal.

Mrs. Li's family consists of four people, a son and daughter-in-law, and a ten-year-old grandson.

Mrs. Li's man died early, she raised her son Li Da with a handful of and urine, and married a daughter-in-law for him, and Li Da also knew that his mother's was not easy, so he was also very filial.

Before eating, Li Da first invited Mrs. Li to the dinner table, and then went to Chu Nan's house to ask Chu Nan to come out to eat.

When Chu Nan came, his daughter-in-law Chen served the dishes well, a plate of pickles, a bowl of tofu, a plate of chili peppers dipped in water, and steamed buns, which was tonight's dinner.

After the daughter-in-law Chen finished serving the food, as soon as she sat down, Mrs. Li slapped the table and scolded:

"If you have guests at home, you cook these dishes?"

"Is there anything wrong with this dish?" Chan asked.

"Miss Chu has given a lot of money, even if there is no fish and meat, you have to get a plate of eggs for others!" Mrs. Li said angrily, this daughter-in-law really doesn't have any brains.

"Heh, the money given by Miss Chu has fallen into your pocket, I don't get any money, what can I use to buy eggs?" Chen was not to be outdone, and he was angry when he thought about it, this old lady gave her money to death, where did she get the money to buy meat?

"Won't you earn it without money! Look at the daughter-in-law of Erniu's family next door, cooking for others in the morning and washing clothes for others in the afternoon, how capable she is! If you're lazy and lazy, you'll have no money! Old Lady Li said angrily.
