It was past noon, and the sky slowly became gloomy, and the sky above Shimen Village seemed to be shrouded in a fog, which made everyone in Jiuji Mountain feel very depressed.

Mu Pengfei looked at Chu Nan and Miao Qi suspiciously, not understanding what riddles the two of them were playing, he opened his mouth to Chu Nan and asked:

"If you find anything, just say it, now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, one is prosperous, and the other is lost."

Chu Nan lowered his head and pondered for a while before he spoke: "I saw that there seemed to be people in those lotus root fields. ”

After hearing this, everyone hurriedly looked into the lotus root field, but they only saw the lotus leaves floating on the duckweed, and they didn't see any human figures at all.

It's just that what is hidden under the duckweed is unknown, and no one dares to uncover it.

"Uncle Chu, what should we do now?" Yan Lin asked while tugging at Chu Nan's clothes.

Others also looked at Chu Nan, including Mu Pengfei.

"Before, we were just looking for a scarecrow, but now we're going to look through the houses and see if we can find any clues."

This is the only way Chu Nan can think of at present, he can't see the village chief and his wife during the day, and the village chief's grandson can't touch it, since he can't start from the living creatures, then look for some dead things first to see if he can find something.

Then several people were divided into two teams to act separately, and it was not long before it got dark.

Chu Nan took his second daughter and started to search from the east end of the village, and every cabinet and every vessel that could hold things was opened and looked at, not letting go of any clues.

They found that many of the valuable items in the house were still there, and the furnishings in the house were normal, as if these people were temporarily out of the house, in short, these people should have disappeared very suddenly.

Finally, when he searched for a private house, Chu Nan had a harvest.

This house, although very simple, was well kept, and there was a room full of books, and the owner of this house was supposed to be a scholar.

Chu Nan found a diary in this private house.

The earlier part of the diary records the daily life of the owner of the diary, and through these daily routines, it can be judged that the owner of the diary is a teacher in Shimen Village, who is responsible for teaching the children in the village.

It wasn't until the last few pages that something very special was recorded.

"Recently, Ping'er has been a little strange, always sneaking out when I teach my children......"

"I asked her where she went, and she either shirked it or said that she went to Zhang's mother's house next door......"

"I went to ask Zhang's mother, and Zhang's mother said that Ping'er was indeed there, but I always felt that something was wrong......"

The last few pages of the diary record the affairs of the owner of the diary and his wife Ping'er, and the owner of the diary seems to suspect that his wife is having an affair, and the object of the affair is suspected to be the son of the village chief.

On the last page of the diary, it reads:

"The village chief said that he can prove his son's innocence, I don't believe it, he must just want to defend his son, just remember it here, the village chief told him to gather under the big locust tree, I want to go and see how he proves his son's innocence."

The last page of the diary, only a few lines, and it mentioned the village chief, Chu Nan deduced that the owner of the diary should have had an accident after recording this diary, so the diary was interrupted.

It's a pity that this diary didn't even have any date, otherwise Chu Nan could roughly deduce the time when the whole thing happened.

"What kind of person is this, you don't even write a date in your diary!" Yan Lin pursed her lips and expressed her disdain for the diary owner's behavior of not writing the date.

"It's definitely not going to be a serious person." Chu Nan looked at the diary repeatedly, and said casually.

"Why did Senior Brother Chu say that this person is not a serious person?" Zheng Yue'e asked curiously.

"Serious people who write diaries." Chu Nan said with a light smile, and casually put the diary in his arms.

Zheng Yue'e and Yan Lin naturally didn't understand this stalk, so they had to follow Chu Nan out of the house in confusion and go to join Mu Pengfei and the others.

Shimen Village, under the big locust tree.

At this time, it was unitary time, and it was not long before it got dark.

"What did you find?" Mu Pengfei asked as soon as they met.

Chu Nan took out the diary from his arms and threw it at Mu Pengfei.

Mu Pengfei flipped through it casually and said, "This is an ordinary diary, what's the use?" ”

"You say that, it looks like you've found something useful?" Chu Nan asked rhetorically.

Mu Pengfei smiled proudly, and casually threw Chu Nan an old book.

The book is very old, the paper has turned yellow and hard, but the handwriting on it is still legible.

There are some symbols that Chu Nan doesn't recognize, mixed with some words, and some illustrations, like a religious document.

"What is this?" Chu Nan asked, from the words she could recognize, she couldn't tell what was recorded in this book at all.

Mu Pengfei saw Chu Nan asking, and he was proud in his heart, he finally pressed Chu Nan on this.

On the surface of this book, the words are easy to recognize, but with the addition of those strange symbols, the real meaning is completely different from the superficial meaning of the words.

"This is an old calendar, mostly used in some religious sacrifices, these words, I have the pleasure of learning some of them, translating this book, it is still not a problem."

Mu Pengfei couldn't help but show off in front of Chu Nan and the others, and he continued:

"This book records a kind of prayer for God, saying that you can seek the God of truth to come, the God of truth can distinguish the truth of everything in the world from falsehood, when the God of truth comes, it means that the truth will come to the world."

Chu Nan heard Mu Pengfei's explanation, combined with the contents of the diary she had seen before, she had some guesses.

"I know what's going on!" Yan Lin said suddenly.

"You got it? Tell me about it! Zheng Yue'e urged, and everyone else also looked at Yan Lin.

Yan Lin confidently took the diary from Mu Pengfei's hand, pointed to the diary, and said:

"The diary said that the diary owner's wife had an affair, and the object of the affair was the son of the village chief, and the diary owner knew about it and spread the news."

"And the village chief's son denied having an affair with the diary owner's wife, so the village chief came up with a way, that is, to ask this god of truth to come down to prove that what his son said was true, so as to return his son's innocence!"

"And the diary record is terminated here, that must be that there was a problem in the process of asking the gods, and the whole village is dead!"

After Yan Lin finished speaking, she puffed up her chest confidently, she felt that her inference must be the truth of the matter.

"Senior Sister Yan, what went wrong when you invited God?"

Zheng Yue'e frowned and asked, while Yan Lin handed the diary to Chu Nan and said:

"I don't know about that!"
