Chapter 49: Yantou Village
Hua Lin took a look at it, the size of the yellow paper that fell into his hand was about the same as his palm, and the yellow paper burned by the people in the Shuanghe area when they sacrificed to the gods looked very similar on the surface, but the feel was completely different, the yellow paper used by the people was smoother, and the yellow paper that Xiao Ruyun gave him was really a "piece" , not only the surface, even the thickness is closer to the bark than ordinary paper, the center of the paper, with cinnabar painted three interconnected figures, there is no decoration around, he according to Xiao Ruyun said the piece of paper in his hand, Guo Jue under the feet of the wind, it seems that there is an air flow around his body, one step out of the top of the original few steps, his speed is not slow, deliberately even running and jumping, although he met a few people on the road, saw his face dressed up through makeup, did not care, after a meal, he walked to Xiao Ruyun let him visit Yantou Village.

Yantou Village is located at the junction of the mountains and the plains, the county government's case file says that there are more than 300 families, and ten people have been "moved" in the past ten years, and each time someone is reported to have "moved away" when checking grain and collecting taxes, and there is no record of the population of this village moving in other villages, among all the villages with similar situations, the situation of Yantou Village is not particularly prominent, the reason why Xiao Ruyun chose this place, Hua Lin saw it as soon as he arrived: this is the closest to the county seat among all the villages with missing records.
He slowed down and walked to the head of the village, where he met a few people sitting under the old tree and talking, foaming at the mouth, so he walked over and asked, "Excuse me, where does Fourth Uncle Yu live?" I am his nephew, my father and mother are gone, and people say that he is here, so they asked me to come to look for him. ”
Yu Si was the one who had "moved" three years ago on the case file, and when several people sitting under the tree saw him ask, their eyes flashed, and one of them even said in a rough voice: "There is nothing in this village, Yu Si! Where did you come from? ”
Another thin man stopped the man and said to Hua Lin: "Little brother, I see that you are not easy to come by, go to my house to rest first, and then make plans." ”
Hua Lin thanked him, walked a few steps with him, and entered a room next to him, the man asked Hua Lin to sit, and went to the kitchen to urge his mother-in-law to hot water. Hua Lin sat in the room, pushed the branch he had just picked up and walked on the wall, and when he heard the two of them muttering, one said, "Yu Si's nephew?
"He has lived in this village for more than 20 years, and it is not unusual for him to have a nephew in his hometown who he doesn't know!" The thin man sighed: "If this little guy came to join his relatives three years ago, he would have made a fortune, and now the land and property have been confiscated, and there is no reason for the village to spit it out!"
"Then you will keep him in the house?" the woman almost cried out, "Such a big boy, I don't know how good it tastes!"
"Who said I would keep him at home?" the thin man laughed: "They also ate well in the past, and this time his nephew came to my house, and he had to give me this amount - I sent him away, and if he refused, I went to the county to complain, saying that they ...... three years ago."
"What did they say three years ago?" Hua Lin clapped his hands with a smile, and the fairy official behind him had a frosty face: "The county official is here, you hurry up and say it, and you don't have to go to the county to sue again." ”
Before the thin man could react, his mother-in-law shouted first: "Strong ......" Before the word came out, Xiao Ruyun pointed her hand and fell to the ground with a bang, and her hand was raised again, and she saw that the woman who fell to the ground turned into a puddle of red and white pus...... The villain, the villain really didn't participate in what happened three years ago......"
Xiao Ruyun said sharply: "Say!"
The next narrative is reversed, and Xiao Ruyun also took a moment to understand clearly: three years ago, Yu Si went out to plow the fields and never returned, and everyone deduced that he might "fall into the mountain stream", and the next thing was just like the general situation where everyone in Jiming Village was preparing to deal with the Wang family, but this Yu Si was much richer than the Wang family, in addition to his wife and children, there were also three acres of land, so the field property was "not included in the official" by the villagers, saying that it was confiscated by the official, but in fact, it was entered into the ancestral hall, and the county did not know at all. When the county came to check the grain, the village took the benefits, and said that "Yu Si moved away", and the land property was also hypothetically sold to the ancestral hall.
"So, Wang Kewang also went out to plow the fields and never came back?"
The thin man's hair was soaked with cold sweat, and it was wet and sticking to his scalp, and he knew that he couldn't be good this time: "No—oh, yes, he's too...... He also went out to plow the fields and never came back. ”
"What about Ding Baimao, who also ploughs the fields?"
"Yes, it's not bad at all, the hoe is still thrown in the field, and the little one sees it with his own eyes. ”
"Ridiculous!" Xiao Ruyun scolded: "There have been so many sturdy men in the village in the past ten years, and you dare to live in the village, so none of you have thought of reporting to the official to investigate?"
"Oh," the thin man called out, "Lord Xianguan doesn't know, those county officials, are they polite? Plainly send grain and money to pay in the past, it is the grain that needs to be kicked to the point, and the money needs to be depreciated, and in addition, you have to kill chickens and steam geese to buy wine, and you have to blame you for not being well entertained, and once a year you come to the village, everyone has to get together a lot of shares, where do you dare to provoke them again? The matter of the disappearance of the person is found out in a day or two? These small industries in the village are not enough for them to eat, and the people who are missing are all new families, and there is no bitter owner......
"So you took the opportunity to swallow their industry?"
"It's all handed over to the public, and everyone doesn't get much," the thin man said that the "public" is the ancestral hall, although Xiao Ruyun has corrected it twice before, he still can't change his habits: "It's that when the grain is levied, everyone is exempted from the cost of hospitality......"
"Fool! Didn't you think you'd be so 'missing'?"
Xiao Ruyun scolded bitterly, while paying attention to the man's expression, she thought that the thin man still had some hidden secrets that he hadn't said, who knew that the other party was just holding a fluke heart: "Few people are plowing the fields in the mountains, so they won't be gone, and our fields are all dependent on the village, so they won't be gone." Xiao Ruyun asked him for the location of the field, and pointed to the place, but there was no pus and blood on the ground, and she was still a mother-in-law who had fainted on the ground: "Don't tell anyone today's words, otherwise you won't be able to come back!"
"Yes, yes. "Where does that man dare to cheat and kowtow again and again.
Waiting out of the village, Hua Linfang praised Xiao Ruyun: "Sister makes a good plan!" Xiao Ruyun has never learned to change into a living person at home before, how can she turn that mother-in-law into pus this time? It turned out that she had the experience of turning Chai He into a corpse at Tian Sanhu's house, and this time the ragged clothes on the mother-in-law were transformed into a large pool of pus, covering the living people below, because of the red and white, mortals can see it, and there are ghosts in their hearts, two wars, how dare to look more, in fact, if you look closer like Hualin, you will see "pus" In fact, there is still a faint breathing, and I haven't changed. This kind of trickery, she never dreamed of in the Xiao family, because the immortal assessment is one one, two is two, and the method of turning a living person into a dead thing is completely different, and everyone in the Xiao family can see that it is useless at all, so she is not as happy as Hua Lin, and only replied: "I don't know what the troublemakers in the mountains are, you have to be careful over there." ”
