Chapter 519: Story
On this day, it was obvious that the atmosphere in the entire Fengluo Town was extremely serious, and there was a homicide, which made the people in the whole town nervous, Lin Tianqi and his party of six people also continued to stay in the hotel, eating and drinking, but they didn't pay much attention to the situation outside, although Xu's father, Xu's mother, and Xu Jie were a little uncomfortable, but thinking of Lin Tianqi and Uncle Jiu, they were not too worried.
Xu Dongsheng, on the other hand, seemed a little breathless, and always wanted to go and see the situation in person, but seeing that Lin Tianqi and Uncle Jiu didn't say anything, it was not easy to speak, so he had to stay in the hotel helplessly.
Until noon, Huang Youde came to the hotel again: "Mr. Lin, a few." Huang Youde walked in, took a few people, and politely hugged his fists at Uncle Nine and the others, and said hello.
"Mayor Huang" Uncle Nine also bowed to Huang Youde politely and replied, and then asked, "I don't know how the investigation is, do you have eyebrows?"
"Hey, it's not a secret, from morning to now, no clues have been found about the murderer. Huang Youde frowned and sighed when he heard this, sighing with a sigh on his face, as the mayor of a town, now that there are people in the town, and he can't find clues for a while, he, the mayor of the town, is also Alexander, sighed and couldn't help but ask Uncle Jiu: "I don't know if Mr. Lin and a few of you can tell me about the situation last night." ”
After speaking, Huang Youde paid attention to the changes in the eyes of Lin Tianqi and his party without leaving a trace, and wanted to see some information from the eyes of the group
"We all rested in the hotel last night, went back to our room after dark, and never left the room since, and by the time we got up, it was this morning. ”
"yes, we stayed in the hotel all the time last night, and we never left the door, you don't still suspect us, do you?"
Xu Dongsheng also opened his mouth when he heard this, and when he heard the meaning of Huang Youde's interrogation, he was a little unhappy.
"Don't mind, it's really a matter of human life, before the truth is revealed, Huang can only do this, not only a few, any one of the mayor is the same, Huang is also so to thoroughly investigate the truth, and give justice to the dead, and an innocent person to the living, not to wronged a good person, nor to let go of a bad person, offended, but also hope that a few distinguished guests will have a lot of Haihan. ”
Huang Youde apologized a little apologetically, and when Uncle Nine heard this, he waved his hand at Xu Dongsheng, signaling Xu Dongsheng not to speak anymore, and also looked at Huang Youde and said politely-
"This is as it should be, if Mayor Huang has anything else you want to ask, just ask?"
Seeing Uncle Jiu's cooperation and understanding, Huang Youde seemed to be quite grateful, and arched his hand to Uncle Jiu again to show his gratitude, and then heard again-
"I wonder if you noticed any unusual noises or encountered anything suspicious when you were resting last night?"
"Something suspicious?"
Uncle Nine frowned and thought about it slightly when he heard this, and finally shook his head, Xu Jie, Xu Father, Xu Mother, and Xu Dongsheng didn't hesitate, they all shook their heads, they have been on the road for the past few days, and the group is a little tired, so last night except for Lin Tianqi, almost everyone slept very hard, and they fell asleep soon after entering the room after dark, and woke up this morning.
The five of them all shook their heads, only Lin Tianqi did not speak, his expression showed a hint of thoughtfulness, seeing Lin Tianqi's appearance, Huang Youde's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said-
"Did this gentleman find anything last night?"
Lin Tianqi raised his head when he heard this, looked at Huang Youde, nodded after thinking about it, and said, "Speaking of which, I did encounter some situations last night, but now that I think about it, it's a little strange?"
"Oh" Huang Youde perked up when he heard this, and the residents of Fengluo Town behind him also looked at him.
Uncle Jiu, Xu Dongsheng, Xu Jie, Xu's father, and Xu's mother also looked at Lin Tianqi, and a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes, especially Xu Jie, who slept with Lin Tianqi last night, but she didn't know what happened last night.......
"Last night, in the middle of the night, I was sleeping in my room, about 12 a.m., when a middle-aged woman suddenly knocked on the door and asked me if I had seen her daughter. ”
Lin Tianqi said, his expression with a look of memory and thought.
"What?!"
When the words fell, Huang Youde and the residents of Tianfeng Town behind him all changed their expressions greatly, as if they had thought of something, and their expressions suddenly became nervous.
Xu Jie, Xu's father, Xu's mother, and Xu Dongsheng were all stunned, and so was Uncle Jiu, but in addition, the eyes from the corners of their eyes were more at Lin Tianqi, revealing a thoughtful look in their eyes.
"And then?"
Huang Youde asked.
"Later, I said I didn't see it, and the woman left, and was woken up in the middle of the night in a daze, and I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it, the more I think about it, the more strange it feels, how can anyone be looking for her daughter in the middle of the night, and there should be no one missing in the town. ”
Lin Tianqi said, in the end, his face deliberately showed a nervous look, looking at Huang Youde Dao.
"Mayor Huang, your town can't be haunted. ”
After speaking, Lin Tianqi looked at Huang Youde and pretended to be a little nervous and afraid.
Unexpectedly, hearing Lin Tianqi's words, Huang Youde did not refute Lin Tianqi's words, but asked.
"Sir, do you remember the woman's dress?"
"I remember some, I remember that the woman was wearing long hair and was very pretty, she looked like she was in her forties, she had good skin and ..... clothes."
Lin Tianqi opened his mouth and described the appearance and dress of the middle-aged woman one by one, listening to Lin Tianqi's words, Huang Youde's face was getting worse and worse, and the faces of the townspeople of Fengluo Town behind him slowly became uneasy and frightened, especially one of the middle-aged men, his face turned white.
Lin Tianqi recognized this middle-aged man, who was one of the men they met on the way to the town yesterday who came out of the hillside carrying a hoe.
Seeing the performance of these people, Lin Tianqi also had more and more confidence in the speculation in his heart, but his face was silent, pretending to be nervous, and looked at Huang Youdedao.
"Mayor Huang, looking at you like this, I can't really be a hell of a god. ”
Lin Tianqi asked, the five people who were next to him, Uncle Jiu, Xu Jie, Xu Father, Xu Mother and Xu Dongsheng were all slightly moved when they heard this, looking at Lin Tianqi's eyes flashing a glimmer of light, these people in Fengluo Town did not know Lin Tianqi's situation, but they knew very well that with Lin Tianqi's cultivation, if they really encountered a ghost, how could they not recognize it.
But at this moment, Lin Tianqi behaved like this.
Huang Youde's expression at this moment has long lost his previous composure, and his face changed several times when he heard the words, before he spoke.
"To tell you the truth, in fact, in our town, there is a story that has been passed down by the old people. ”
"According to the legend of the old people in the town, a long time ago, there was a family in our town where two daughters fell into the Yellow River and drowned, and then their parents went crazy and committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river......
"It's been a long time since this story happened, and we all thought it was just a rumor, but we didn't want to. ”
Huang Youde shook his head slightly and sighed, that look, what he said was the same as the real thing.
"So I really met a ghost last night!"
Lin Tianqi didn't debunk it, and asked nervously.
Huang Youde gritted his teeth when he heard this, and thought about it.
"Not necessarily, maybe someone is using these rumors to pretend to be ghosts to kill people. ”
"In this way, Mr. Lin, please let a few more grievances stay in the hotel for a while, the news just now may be a breakthrough, I will take someone to the town to investigate. ”
After speaking, Huang Youde immediately left with people in a hurry.
When Huang Youde and his party left, the eyes of Uncle Nine and the others also looked at Lin Tianqi.
"Brother Tian, you really saw a ghost last night. ”
Xu Jie was the first to speak, a little nervous.
"What the hell is going on?"
Uncle Nine frowned slightly and asked directly.
Lin Tianqi glanced outside the door, and after making sure that the people in Fengluo Town had already left and there was no one, he glanced at Xu's father, Xu's mother and Xu Jie again, and thought about it, when the matter came to this point, there was no need to hide it from these three people, and immediately said-
"It's the ghost of that woman, who has become a ghost, who came to knock on the door to find me last night, and was scared away by a few words of my scolding, and should have come to take revenge. ”
"Father and daughter, ghost, Brother Tian, what's going on?" Xu Jie, Xu's father, and Xu's mother were a little confused and said.
Xu Dongsheng and Uncle Nine knew it, but the two didn't speak, in fact, Uncle Nine wanted to ask Lin Tianqi why he didn't make a move since he saw that powerful ghost, but thinking about the situation this time, after thinking about it, he still didn't speak immediately, looked at Lin Tianqi, and waited for Lin Tianqi's next words.
"Do you remember the big flower boat when you crossed the Yellow River yesterday? What did you see inside the big flower boat yesterday?"
Lin Tianqi asked the five people, and the five people shook their heads when they heard this, although they also saw the big flower boat yesterday, but because it was too far away, they didn't have Lin Tianqi's eyesight, and naturally they didn't see the things in the big flower boat.
"What's inside?" Uncle Nine asked, and the other four also looked at Lin Tianqi.
"It's two brides, two living people. ”
Lin Tianqi said, the five of them all changed their faces in an instant when they heard the words, and they didn't understand the meaning of Lin Tianqi's words - human sacrifice!
"And yesterday when we came down from the hillside, when we met the two men who came out of the woods, I smelled the bloody smell of human blood from them, and then I took Dongsheng there to check and found a mound of earth where two bodies were buried, a middle-aged couple, who looked like outsiders, in addition, at the riverside wharf upstream of the town, Dongsheng and I saw the sacrificial platform of the wharf, and there were some yellow paper spilled on the ground, and a sacrificial event was held here yesterday morning......."
"Last night's ghost was the middle-aged woman in the two bodies that Dongsheng and I dug up, and she asked me if I had seen her daughter. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Tianqi stopped and didn't say anything more, but after saying so much, it was enough, and at this point, it was already very straightforward.
Xu Jie's whole face turned a little pale, and at this time, she finally understood Lin Tianqi's previous sentence that she couldn't look at the surface.
