Chapter 115: Village Chief Wang Lao Wu
Second brother, this formation should be abolished now. Jingchen circled around the stone lion statue and asked in a childish voice.
"Well, the squatting stone lion behind the village is still intact, but the stone lions at the head and end of the village are already damaged, and this formation is naturally ineffective. Li Ge, who was in deep thought, responded to the little monk's sentence and looked up at the farmland behind the village, "Since this squatting stone lion is the spirit of the Qi Formation, the things in the town should be in that direction." Let's go over there and see if we can find something. ”
At Li Ge's suggestion, the three of them walked along a field stalk at the back of the village towards the field. After walking for a while, they came to a small river, which connected to the pond at the end of the village.
Green grass sprouts along narrow river paths, and everything revives on the vast plains. The sun of early spring is warmly reflected on the earth, and on the crooked riverside path, three figures move forward slowly. After a short time, they stopped at the end of the river, beside a large wild pool.
This wild pond is several times larger than the pond at the end of the village, about six or seven acres in size, the pond is overgrown with weeds, and the surface of the pond is full of duckweed, which is densely packed and completely covers the pond water.
After the three of them took a turn around the wild pool, Wu Youqiu picked up a piece of soil on the side of the pool and threw it directly into the pool, "Second brother, Jingchen, do you think the things in the town will be in this pool?"
"I don't know, the little monk doesn't feel anything abnormal at all. Jingchen glanced at Li Ge, and the two shook their heads at the same time.
Behind the wild pond is a large area of flat farmland, and there is a large river more than ten meters wide behind the field. Standing on the edge of the river, you can faintly see that there is a village at the end of the other side of the river.
"Second brother, look, there is a bridge there, are we going to the other side of the river to have a look?" Standing by the big river, Jingchen pointed to a bridge not far away and asked Li Ge.
"No need, the location we are in now is already two or three miles away from Wangtang Village. If the formation in the village is to suppress some evil thing, it will definitely not be too far from the village, so I think the formation is right, it should be in this area. Li Ge turned to look at the flat field behind the village.
"Hey~ Let's go, let's go back the way we came and take a closer look. Wu Youqiu sighed. In the end, the three of them returned the same way and returned to the stone lion behind the village without finding anything.
"Seven people died here in a month, all of them young women, and while the cause of death is not bizarre, there must be something else in it. Big brother, are we going to ......"
"Well, let's stay here for a few days, and I'd like to see what this pervert who specializes in harming young women looks like. Wu Youqiu heard Li Ge's words, answered, and then said, "But since this ghost dares to act in the daytime, I think his cultivation must not be low." ”
After making a decision, the three of them found the coachman and still lived in Wang Laoqi's house. Rural people are already simple, and with generous accommodation fees, Wang Laoqi is naturally happy. Now that the three of them stayed, some things are no longer hidden.
In the afternoon, in the living room of Wang Laoqi's house, Wu Youqiu took a glass of water and drank a few sips, looked at the owner of the house and said solemnly, "Uncle Wang, we decided to stay at your house for a few days because what happened in your village may not be natural, but evil. ”
"What did the evil spirit do, Master Wu, what do you mean by this?" Wang Laoqi heard this, his face full of doubts.
"Uncle Wang, don't think about it, we don't mean anything else, and we are not sure about the evil spirit now. Wu Youqiu hurriedly replied, and after a pause, he asked, "I wonder if Uncle Wang can take us to meet the village chief of your village?"
"See the village chief?" Wang Laoqi heard this, his mind spun quickly, and then he got up and said with a smile, "The village chief is my fifth brother, if you want to see him, I will take you there." ”
"Then it's troublesome Uncle Wang. Wu Youqiu responded with a smile, and then walked in the direction of the village entrance with Li Ge and Jingchen under the leadership of Wang Laoqi.
The four of them walked to a house in the third family at the entrance of the village, and Wang Laoqi opened his mouth and shouted, "Fifth brother, are you at home......?"
"Is there anything wrong?" After Wang Laoqi's voice came out, after a while, a man in his forties walked out of the house, looked at the former and smiled slightly, and then moved his gaze to the three Li Ge behind him, and asked suspiciously, "Old Seven, who are the three juniors behind you?"
"Fifth brother, these are a few little masters who passed by our village and stayed overnight at my house. Wang Laoqi glanced back at the three people behind him, and said with a smile: "Let's go into the house and talk, fifth brother." ”
"Haha~ come~ A few people, please come into the house. The village chief, Wang Laowu, laughed and beckoned the four of them into the house.
"Polite to Village Chief Wang. After entering the room, Li Ge smiled awkwardly, and then raised his hand and bowed lightly, "We took the liberty to come here because we have something to discuss with you." ”
"Do you want to discuss something with me?" Wang Lao Wu was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a smile, "A few people, please sit down and say." ”
"That's right, our three brothers passed through Wangtang Village last night and stayed at Brother Ling's house. When we were about to leave this morning, we happened to encounter a drowning person at the end of the village, and after getting out of the car to check, it may not be an accident that we sank. Li Ge got straight to the point and said what was in his heart.
"Isn't it an accident? Then what do you mean......" Wang Lao Wu's face sank when he heard this, and he looked at the three people brought by his brother, and then asked, "Who are you?"
"All three of us brothers are cultivators. Wu Youqiu saw Wang Lao Wu's face and replied loudly.
"Cultivator?" Wu Youqiu's words made Wang Lao Wu stunned at the moment, and after he spit out these two words, he looked at the three of Li Ge carefully. After a long time, he suddenly laughed, and said with a hint of mockery in his tone, "I'm afraid the three of you have come to the wrong place, our Wangtang Village is a poor and remote country, and there is no extra gold and silver to invite Master." And the matter of our village, I think it was an accident. ”
"Village Chief Wang is too worried, I also said that our three brothers were just passing by here, and they happened to encounter something strange in your village, so they wanted to take care of it, and they didn't want gold and silver. Farewell~" Li Ge said in a flat tone, and then glanced at Jingchen and Wu Youqiu beside him, and the three of them went straight out.
"Slow down the three little masters. Wang Lao Wu heard Li Ge say this, and hurriedly chased to the door and shouted, he looked at Li Ge and the three of them carefully for the third time, and then asked, "I see that you are young, even if the affairs of our village are really as you say, it is not an accident, then do you have the ability to take care of it?"
"Haha, Village Chief Wang, you don't have to worry about this. Wu Youqiu smiled, took out a wooden card from his waist and handed it to the village chief, "This is called the national card, it is exclusive to my thaumaturgical national soldiers, if we can't control the affairs of your village, we will invite another master to come." If you don't know this card, you can take it to the town and find the government to check it. ”
"This ......" Wang Lao Wu took the token and looked at it carefully, immediately returned the token in his hand to Wu Youqiu, and bent down to salute the three respectfully. For him, he had seen this national soldier card before. That was more than 10 years ago, when he was still working as an errand boy in the town's official office.
