"Who?"

Xia Muxi's eyes flashed with tears, and he bit his red lips with his teeth, "Brother Qin, are you doubting me?" ”

"No, I didn't doubt you, I just had a lot of doubts in my head."

Qin Shiming pulled the car against the side of the road and lit a cigarette.

"I have no grievances with your mother-in-law and grandson, I don't dare to say anything else, I saved your life, you have no reason to do something to me, your grandmother and I have met twice in total, and there is no motive to harm me."

"But the only person I've ever come into contact with who has something to do with Gu worms is your grandmother."

“……”

Xia Muxi was silent, although she was simple, she was not stupid, and she didn't understand some questions.

"Mu Xi, you seriously recall, from the death of your grandmother to three years ago, during this time period, have any strangers entered your village and had frequent contact with your grandmother."

Seeing that Xia Muxi was silent, Qin Shiming said again.

Tianxing Village is deep in the depths of Miao Jiang, comparable to the primeval forest, there are only a few people in the village, not to mention the sudden appearance of a stranger, even if it is not the cow in the village, everyone can recognize it at a glance.

If the Gu worm on his body was really the work of the old immortal, he would arrange someone to calculate himself in advance, and he would definitely contact Mrs. Xia directly, and it would be impossible for Xia Muxi not to be impressed.

"Strangers come into our stockade?"

Hearing this, Xia Muxi's frowning brows suddenly relaxed, "Yes, there really is." ”

"Huh? What kind of people are they? Man or woman? How old are you approximately? ”

Qin Shiming's spirit was shocked, he turned his head and stared at Xia Muxi tightly.

Xia Muxi recalled for a moment and said, "Around February this year, the snow in the mountains had just melted, and I remember that a few days before I went back to school, my grandmother was still packing up my things." ”

"There was the sun that day, but it was cold, the edelweiss, the water flowing in the ravine, and an old fortune teller with a cane came to the village, dressed a little sloppily."

"Fortune teller?"

Qin Shiming frowned, thinking to himself that it was the master Li Chengfeng who was dressed up?

"Yes, fortune teller, there are three words hanging on the sign - count the sky. Many people in the village didn't believe it, and he didn't get angry, so he walked to our door and told my grandmother a hexagram. ”

"And then? Specifically counted something, said something. ”

Qin Shiming hurriedly asked.

"And then I really don't know what they talked about."

Xia Muxi's face was embarrassed, "Brother Qin, I am a scholar, and I have never believed in fortune-telling and divination, I firmly believe that fate is in my own hands, and knowledge can change fate." ”

So, when the fortune teller was talking to my grandmother, I went to cook for myself, thinking that the old man didn't know where he came from, and his face was full of dust, so I cooked a lot of dishes. But the old man didn't eat meat, saying that he was a vegetarian, and later heard from his grandmother that he was a Taoist priest. ”

"Daoist?"

Qin Shiming's mind instantly thought of the mad Taoist priest of Fengming Mountain, could it be him?

Counting the sky, this stage name is indeed domineering enough, and even God dares to take care of it.

"Yes, it's a Taoist priest, I gave him scrambled eggs, he didn't eat them, and finally ate a little baked sweet potato, drank a bowl of hot soup, and then left." Xia Muxi recalled: "After the old Taoist priest left, my grandmother didn't say anything, I didn't ask, I didn't believe in this kind of mysterious thing, and I was afraid that my grandmother would get angry if I asked too much." ”

"Has your grandmother changed since then? The changes are more noticeable. ”

Relying on the word "Taoist" alone, Qin Shiming still can't conclude that he is a crazy Taoist. But if you extrapolate from the time, February of this year should be more than two months before my return.

Did the layout start so early?

"Nothing has changed, my grandmother just raises some poultry, and then goes up the mountain to collect medicine, in addition, there is nothing unusual, what should I do." Xia Muxi shook his head.

"Did the Taoist priest tell the fortunes of others in your village? Or have you heard where he came from? ”

Qin Shiming was unwilling.

He doesn't have a photo of a mad Taoist, otherwise Xia Muxi can identify it, if it's really a mad Taoist, it will be even more interesting.

Is he grandpa's man, or his father's?

"No, I haven't heard of it."

Xia Muxi brushed his hair behind his ears, shook his head slightly, and said with his eyebrows: "I remember that on the third day after the old Taoist priest came to the village, I went out of the mountains to go to school. ”

"Huh? Why? ”

Qin Shiming didn't quite understand.

Nostalgia is the most difficult to give up.

Many people have worked hard all their lives outside, and even if they die, they have to be buried in their ancestral graves.

Xia Muxi was picked up by the old lady, she grew up in the village when she was young, and it stands to reason that she has a deep affection for Mrs. Xia and Tianxing Village, how could she not care about the things in the village?

"Our village is too closed, people are backward in thinking, female dolls in their teens are forced to marry and have children, and they are tossed like middle-aged women in their twenties."

Xia Muxi expressed his unhappiness in his heart, "If it wasn't for my grandmother's insistence, insisting on letting me study, and insisting on letting me go out of the mountains, I'm afraid I would have married now." ”

"It is said that the people in the mountains are simple, but in fact they are not, they are very barbaric and very feudal, I know that there are at least two wives in the village who exchanged two cows from outside, in order to prevent their coats, they are tied like livestock, at first these women who were bought still wanted to escape, and he had to cry and cry for his mother, and the screams echoed throughout the village."

"You say, how deep can I feel for such a village?"

Qin Shiming nodded suddenly.

There is no killing, there is no buying and selling, just like the medical ship on the high seas, it is not just a sale, but a huge industrial chain, the "goods" here have just arrived, after some inspection, the eyes may have been sold to the foot basin chicken, the waist was sold to the South Vietnamese country, and the heart was sold to the eagle country.

Like the abducted women, as soon as the photos were sent out, someone over there offered an offer, and two adult cows could get 30,000 or 50,000 yuan.

Don't think that some women are not good-looking, there are still problems with their brains, and there are still people who buy them. Not to mention the living, even if it is a dead person, there are still people who buy it for a yin marriage, especially the female corpse that has just died is more valuable, if it is young and beautiful when it dies, the price can be as high as 100,000 yuan.

"If it weren't for burying my grandmother, if it wasn't for your body, I wouldn't want to go back to Tianxingzhai in my life, it's true that I grew up there, but ......"

Xia Muxi shook his head, he didn't say the next words, but Qin Shiming could understand.

"Don't mention these, you seriously recall these days, has your grandmother talked to you about any weird things in the past six months, has she given you something, of course, if you can rely on your own memory, it would be better to draw the appearance of the old Taoist, I suspect that my Gu matter has something to do with the old Taoist."

Qin Shiming diverted the topic.

"Can a Taoist priest also play Gu?"

“……”

Qin Shiming couldn't answer this, just as he couldn't guarantee that everyone was a good person.

Fengming Mountain Crazy Daoist, is it really a heaven-turning?
