Chapter 464: The Three-Foot Gap The good times didn't last long

As soon as the eldest lady heard this, she didn't raise her head and went back to the house in embarrassment, and as soon as the person left, the old man greeted Chen San with a smile.

"I'm the head of this village, and the village is relatively secluded, so I don't know what happened to the young man?"

"I'll just take a look, I heard that there are thefts here, has anything strange happened in your village lately, or is there anything missing?"

"It doesn't seem to be missing, we in this broken mountain village, there should be no thieves in mind. ”

"That's not necessarily, the thief also wants to eat, maybe he is worried about food?"

"Ah, food! That's not good, that's our life!"

"Don't worry, village chief, I'm a catcher from a nearby town, don't you come to check it, it's too late to check if it's stolen." ”

"Oh, oh, sir, you have to be the master for us, then that... Did the official find anything?"

"Not yet, so I want to ask you villagers if anything strange has happened recently, some families in the neighboring villages have been robbed, and if there is anything unusual to tell me, I can sort it out. ”

"I want to think about it, I want to think about it...... Strange things ~ strange things...... Oh, sir, no, there's nothing strange about it, maybe there hasn't been a person in our village for a long time, and I really can't think of anything strange for a while. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, you think slowly, I'm here to catch the thief, this is what we should do to catch the head, anyway, village chief, can you take me around? ”

"Okay, okay, where do you want to go shopping, I'll take you there, the village looks big, but it's not really big, and it will be through after a while." ”

"Okay, I'd like to go to the bud rice field. ”

"Bud...... In addition to bud rice, there is nothing to look at in the bud rice field. ”

That being said, the village chief's eyes obviously avoided Chen San, and at first glance he was famous.

"The first thing those thieves are worried about is the bud rice, the neighboring village is a whole acre of bald bud rice, you think about how much, maybe this will be stolen, you don't know yet. ”

"No, sir, you don't know, our bud rice is still a few days away, and it's not very ripe. ”

"Hey, it's not very ripe, it's cooked, can you eat it?

"Ah, this is not good, let's go to the side. ”

As soon as the village chief heard that these living grains were going to be stolen, he panicked, and hurriedly walked towards the bud rice field.

Chen San naturally followed behind to see what was the mess in this bud rice field, and the two of them walked a few steps to the bud rice field.

Seeing that the village chief was going around and around on the shore of the field, and he had no intention of going into the bud rice, Chen San was also a little anxious.

"Village chief, what are you doing on the side? If you want me to steal the inside, won't I steal it first, if I steal the outside, won't it be discovered all of a sudden?"

"Inside, but ......," the village chief hesitated.

"What, there won't be any murder in your village hidden in the budding rice field, right?" Chen San said gloomily.

"No, no, no, there are no homicides, we are all honest and duty-bound people, how can there be homicides!"

"Hmph, according to what you think, there won't be a murder in the village? The people in the town are so bad, do they have to get some lives?" Chen Sanyi asked with Yan Yue ****** just now.

"The villain doesn't dare, the villain doesn't dare, it's just that those rats and yellow wolves are afraid in this budding rice field, and there are many traps and iron clips, I'm afraid of hurting the official. ”

"It's okay, you go in front and I go behind, how can I get hurt, you are the village chief, how can you have an iron trap, you should always know, right?"

"I know, I know..."

The village chief's face showed a look of not knowing what to do, although Chen San didn't see it, but with his procrastination, he couldn't guess it.

Procrastination is procrastination, Chen San made a face, the village chief didn't dare to cheat at all, if you want to say that the people in the village are too honest, Chen San said that they would believe it, there is no bad clothes for catching heads, and there is no big knife, this can be believed.

It's no wonder that those ninth-rate pit abduction and deception want to find the people in the village, and it is always easier to deceive if they have less knowledge.

The village chief wanted to take Chen San directly into the bud rice field, but Chen San didn't do it, it was strange that it was obviously in the three-foot-wide long road, such a big bud rice field, and he didn't know where to take it for him.

The two of them returned to the entrance of the three-foot-wide bud rice field, and Chen San asked, "Why is there so much vacancy here?

The old village chief glanced at Chen San and replied helplessly: "It's not that we don't want to plant, it's really useless to plant." ”

Chen Sanyi heard that this was going to tell a story, so he smiled and said: "Tell me, why is it useless, after entering the village, I feel that your village is weird, such a big village doesn't even have chickens and ducks, is it the past?"

The old village chief shook his head helplessly, took out a black pipe from his pocket, pulled some corn whiskers and smoked it......

The two sat on the shore of the field and began to talk about the three-foot gap and the reason for not raising chickens and ducks.

It was almost a year ago, and at that time, some families in the village still raised chickens and ducks, as Chen San said, it was okay to lay some eggs.

The villagers are not stupid, how can they not raise it, and this is handed down by the ancestors, in this kind of village, who does not have a few chickens and ducks.

These villagers didn't expect that these chickens and ducks would one day attract evil things!

When the village chief said this, his face was ugly, as if he had experienced a catastrophe, which couldn't help but make Chen San a little surprised.

I don't know what day it started, this family has few chickens, that family has few ducks, and they are all at night, and there are blood stains and broken feathers of chickens and ducks in the yard of the family with fewer chickens and ducks.

When there was a chicken or a duck a day, and there were two less, the villagers at first suspected that there were jackals, tigers and leopards coming down from these two mountains.

There are also weasels, half-sized chickens, yellow skins love to steal food, don't look at its slender and slender look is not as big as a chicken, stealing chickens is not ambiguous at all.

Therefore, the villagers used wooden planks to block the fence walls in the courtyard, so when Chen San came in, he found that the fence gardens of these houses were very strong.

Weasel is there, but there are many rats in the field, this chicken is obviously not stolen by the yellow skin, the yellow skin steals the chicken will not be a chicken feather and chicken blood, not to mention the duck, the villagers are also guessing, I just hope that the chickens and ducks will not be less.

Contrary to wishes, there are still fewer chickens and ducks, no difference between weekdays and Sundays, some families have driven chickens and ducks to the back room at night, the smell is really stinky, and they are worried that they may not be able to stay outside one day.

Chickens and ducks are decreasing day by day, and the villagers are distressed, they are reluctant to eat and are eaten by those animals, what is this!

Finally one day, this kind of fearful days passed, and the chickens, ducks and geese were eaten, and they were completely gone, but when he heard this, Chen San was anxious.

"Wait a minute, I can hear the rooster crowing when I come, you will tell me that there is not a single chicken in the village, so what did I hear before?"

"It's crowing, but it's not the chickens in our village, it's the wild roosters in the mountains, and there are no chickens in the village." ”

"Then, what about those who rushed to the back room, and they were also stolen?"

"It's not that it's been stolen, it's dead, not only chickens and ducks, maybe it's chickens and ducks that can't be locked in the house, a chicken plague and duck plague, several families have died, it turns out that there are still some families at the other end of the village, this is not dead, looking at the infiltration, we bulldozed the house." ”

The village chief pointed to the south, and in that direction was the great wasteland, where there were still people living there, but they had chicken plague and died.

The old village chief talked about the next thing again, and the next thing was what Chen San wanted to know.

After half a year, the chickens and ducks in the village are almost dead, and the chickens and ducks begin to die after they die.

First of all, the hunters who went up to the mountains, the young adults in the village would go to the mountains to hunt after plowing the land on weekdays, and they used to do this, and they could hunt some prey to open meat for their families.

The first to die was Liu Cripple in the village, who went up the mountain for a day and did not return, and the villagers took torches up and down to search for the mountain in the west but did not find anyone.

But I found a lot of bloodstains, as well as the traces of the fight with the branches broken, and at first glance, I met those jackals, tigers and leopards to eat, and there was no cliff in this place, and it was impossible to fall to death, and I would not look for anyone if I couldn't find anyone for a day.

If you live and shout for most of the mountain, there should always be some response, and if you die, it will be futile to look for it.

This is how the first lame man died, knowing that there were jackals, tigers and leopards on the mountain, so he carried not only a hunting bow, but also an ax and a machete.

Generally speaking, those big guys are in the deep mountains, that is, behind the mountains, and the people in the village are only hunting halfway up the mountain, so they should not be able to touch it, and if they do, they can only accept their fate.

What can they do if they die, those who don't have enough to eat, or don't they have to go up the mountain when there is a food shortage in the future, the poor people are resigned to fate, and there are not many ways for them to choose.

The second one who died was still Qingzhuang Orion, that is, Liu Er in the west of the village, Liu Cripple's cousin, who died less than three or five days behind his cousin.

I couldn't find anyone after going up the mountain, and I searched up and down the village for a long time, and like Liu Cripple, there was no echo, just a few days, two people died in a row while hunting in the mountain, and those people in the village were panicked.

Even if you were hungry, you couldn't go up the hill to nibble on some bark, and there were traps all around the village, unlike a single cannibal.

Since then, no one has dared to go up the mountain, and it is then that the mountain began to howl, the hoarse and rough howl of wild beasts.

The people in the village also began to speculate that these things ate Liu Cripple and Liu Er, and since then the village has also begun to light torches, and before going into the house to sleep, they always have to insert a few sticks in the road, which is a little more reassuring, aren't those beasts afraid of fire.

But the good times did not last long, the torches seemed to be useless, the howling continued, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer to the village, and people began to disappear in the village.

They were all people who got up in the courtyard in the middle of the night, and after they came out, they didn't go back to the house, some of them had blood on the ground, some of them had no blood on the ground, but the people in the house didn't hear any sound, and the man was gone, which made people panic for a while.

It's a blind guess that the beasts on the mountain go down the mountain to eat people, and they are all provoked by those chickens and ducks!

How did you alarm the father-in-law of the land, this is a curse of God, and even more so that there are man-eating evil things in this side of the water and soil, so don't get up in the middle of the night.

But there is no toilet in the house, and you don't get up in the middle of the night, so that those who are older are suffocated to death, and the small ones are forgotten, if you want to go to the big ones, how can you fix them.

During that period of time, every household set up a urine bucket used by the people in the town, exchanged it for grain, bought it with silver, and made it themselves, in short, in order to survive, most of the families put it up.

But there are always people who are left behind, if you want to say that there are many ways to make do with something in the town, but he is poor in the village, and some people don't even have a basin to wash their faces, so what can they do.

The third person was the mother-in-law of the Lu family, the eldest lady who had just spoken to Chen San, but she was not dead, not only did she not die, but she also saw the thing that ate their chickens and ducks and killed people, and howled in the middle of the night.
