Qian Bo's voice was not loud, but it was enough for the people around him to hear clearly, causing everyone's eyes to focus on him.
"What else do you want?" the man asked with a cold face, without the smile he had when he received the money just now.
"You've been struggling there for a long time and you just said it's okay. Now that Zhao Ke's family has suffered a misfortune, you still want to defraud him of money. Do you still have any conscience?"
"Why are you talking? I'm just helping him. What's wrong with me taking some benefits? How come it's a scam? Mr. Qian, don't think that just because you are a cadre, you can talk nonsense. I am a famous Feng Shui expert in eight villages across ten miles.
Sir, I didn't bother to argue with you just now. If you do this again, it will be too late for you to regret it."
Qian Bo smiled and said with disdain: "Hey! As a villager who left the village, I have to listen to Momo to make me regret it before it's too late. It was a scam just now, and now it's a threat.
Our village is really full of capable people now."
Qian Bo glanced at the village director next to him, "Director Zhao, from the national to the local level, we have been cracking down on gangs and eradicating evil these years. Why does it seem to me that there is no progress in our village? I will meet the county again later when I go to Jiangzhou
I'll ask the person in charge about this."
Qian Yonghou poked Qian Bo aside and reminded him in a low voice: "Bozi, stop talking, we are all from the same village."
"Yes, leader, we are all from the same village. We are all relatives. Nothing is better than nothing. Sanmuzhu is also helping everyone. Zhao Ke means what he means here. In the past, those who jumped into the well would have had to pay a thousand to eight hundred for him.
Just took action."
"There were people who jumped into wells before?" Qian Bo's brows suddenly stood up.
"Don't shout, don't shout." The village director glanced at the wellhead and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that there was no movement there. "Leader, this is not the right place to talk about. If you want to know, go to my house tomorrow, or I will
I’ll go to your house and talk to you in detail. It’s getting late today, so we don’t want everyone to watch the fun here.”
Qian Bo said with a serious face: "No tomorrow, go to my house now."
"Okay." The village director nodded, then turned to the onlookers and said: "Don't look at it anymore, go home quickly, Zhao Ke, find a few people to take your wife to the funeral shed, hurry up tomorrow morning
Go to the crematorium and be cremated.”
"oh."
Zhao Ke stopped a few people, and those people were obviously reluctant, but Zhao Ke handed over cigarettes and begged, so they agreed, but they also asked Zhao Ke to call the person named San Mulu, and
The call was not in vain, and two extra coins were stuffed in.
The excitement was over, the crowd dispersed, Qian Bo took the village director and Tan Xuan home, and Qian Yonghou went back with them.
Finally, we could turn on the lights openly. Under the illumination of fluorescent lamps, everyone's hearts became brighter, and the depression was swept away. As soon as a few people sat down, Su Ying took the freshly boiled water and made them a drink.
There was a pot of tea, and Xiao Di quickly came out of the west room, but although the two of them were in the room, they still had the same cold air as those men.
"Thank you." The village director took the tea and said apologetically: "I didn't expect it to be so late and wake up your whole family. I'm sorry, leader. The countryside is not as good as the city. If something happens, everything will be fine."
The whole village was in chaos, and you were frightened."
Qian Bo smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "Uncle, there are no outsiders at home, so there is no need to be so polite. There is nothing to be frightened. Who would have thought that such a big thing happened in the village and I was caught up. But old man
Uncle, you open and shut your mouth in front of the villagers and say things like scamming corpses. As a village cadre, this is not what you should do."
As he said that, Qian Bo took out his cigarettes and handed one to the village director and Qian Yonghou. As for Tan Xuan, he didn't dare to give it to him. Who knows if something else would come out of the smoke when he spit it?
He didn't dare to let others see Tan Xuan's ability, otherwise his positive image would collapse before it was established.
The village director took the cigarette and knocked it on the coffee table, sighed, and said to Qian Bo, "You can call me uncle, and I will say it directly if there are some things that I shouldn't say. My nephew, although you said
It's true to talk about science, but some things don't make sense if you can't see them. I really don't believe this kind of thing. The old well is disgusting. In the past ten years, many young girls and young wives have drowned."
"What?" Qian Bo frowned a bit, (this chapter is not finished yet!)
303. It’s settled
After quietly taking a look at Tan Xuan, he also took a cigarette and kept tapping it on the coffee table.
"Really, the director didn't lie to you, that well is indeed a bit evil."
"Since so many people drowned in that well, why didn't the well be filled in?" Qian Bo asked in confusion.
"We haven't thought about it, but we don't dare." The village director sighed, lit a cigarette for Qian Bo's uncle and nephew, and took a puff himself, and then said slowly: "That well is basically a well.
One person drowned every year. I originally planned to fill the well, but on the first night when I planned to fill the well, the security captain hanged himself on the well frame. Later, I asked San Mulu to take a look, and San Mulu said it was the Well Dragon King who was angry.
Okay, let me give you a warning. Those who jumped into the well or fell into the water were also collected by the Jing Dragon King and served as maids to the Jing Dragon King. Later, they burned incense and made offerings. He negotiated with the Jing Dragon King for one year.
At most, I only have one maid. I thought it would be over by the end of the year and it would be fine this year, but in the end I still didn’t escape."
"King Long Jing accepts a maid." Tan Xuan and Xiao Di both couldn't help laughing.
"This is too ridiculous, haha..."
The village director glanced at Tan Xuan and Xiao Di with dissatisfaction. He didn't have the nerve to get angry because of Qian Bo's affection, and said with a cautious nose: "Don't believe it, although something happens to that well almost every year, at most one person dies every year.
, after one person dies, everything will really be fine."
Tan Xuan suppressed his smile and asked the village director: "Have you ever thought that it was not King Jinglong who killed people, but someone in your village?"
"Someone?" the village director muttered and immediately became unhappy, "What do you mean? Are you saying that all the people in our village were killed?"
Tan Xuan snorted and sneered: "Maybe some of the dead people fell into the water, but rather than saying that King Jinglong wanted a maid, I am more willing to believe that it was a murder."
"You..." The village director suddenly stood up, glared at Tan Xuan for a while, then looked at Qian Bo, and said with a bitter face: "He actually suspected that there was a murderer in our village?"
Qian Bo nodded, "I doubt it too."
"What!" The village director's face instantly became very ugly, and he looked at Tan Xuan in disbelief, his body trembling a little, as if he had been wronged a lot.
Tan Xuan said from the side: "If what you said is true, can you explain how the dead body came to the well? Don't say that she faked the corpse just to die again, and I pulled her from the well mouth
When she came back, she had no reaction..."
"This..." The village director was stunned by Tan Xuan's question and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Tan Xuan continued to ask: "Also, what is the use of the yellow cloth covering the mouth of the well? There are also copper coins dropped around it. As far as I know, it is very similar to the method used to calm souls in some places."
"San Miwu said that the living souls would not be able to adapt to the Well Dragon King when they first arrived. He was afraid that they would be homesick, so they had to cover the mouth of the well with a yellow cloth for three days. After three days, they would feel at ease there." "San Mimu, that's right.
Is that the person who touched the corpse just now?"
The village director nodded, "Yes, yes, that's him. He is the Feng Shui master of our village. He can also look at foreigners and other things."
Tan Xuan snorted coldly and said, "He is the most suspicious."
"You said San Mulu was the murderer?" The village director waved his hands hurriedly, "No way, how could he be the murderer."
"He was the most panicked of all the people just now, and when he was taking money out of the female corpse's mouth, he saw three scratches on his wrist. They should have been scratched by the woman. If I guessed correctly, he looked so sloppy.
Son, he must be a bachelor, right?"
"This..." The village director was stunned and looked at Tan Xuan in shock.
Qian Yonghou rushed to say: "Yes, his wife died more than ten years ago. She also died by jumping into a well."
"What!" Tan Xuan frowned, "His wife also jumped into the well and died?"
"Yes." Qian Yonghou nodded vigorously, "Yes, since his wife jumped into the well, she has fallen into the well every year."
Tan Xuan looked at Qian Bo and sneered: "I don't know what the culture is in your village, but I can now confirm that there is a murderer in your village. Good guy, there are more than ten lives. If this is reported, what will happen here?
But he’s completely famous.”
"Uh..." Even though Qian Bo was prepared (this chapter is not over yet!)
303. It’s settled
She was shocked. She looked at Xiao Di, whose eyes were filled with heat. Then she looked at Tan Xuan and asked uncertainly: "Tanzi, do you think those people who jumped into the well were all killed by Sanmu?"
Tan Xuan nodded, "There may be a few people who slip or fall into the water due to other reasons, but nine out of ten people fall into the water."
"No, no." The village director couldn't sit still and stood up to deny it. Not only did he deny what Tan Xuan said, but he also denied Tan Xuan's people.
"Eldest nephew, our village has simple folk customs. How could something like this happen to our village? What does your friend do? He is young and can speak harshly. You can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense.
Otherwise, we won’t be able to arouse people’s anger.”
Tan Xuan snorted disdainfully, "Your threats are of no use to me. The facts are there. I didn't make them up, and they don't exist if you deny them. Bad people should be punished. If you don't give the common people a
A perfect explanation, when the fire can no longer be contained in the paper, I will see if you still have the nerve to live here. You can sit back and do nothing without conscience, but we cannot ignore it."
The village director was suppressed by Tan Xuan's words and asked Qian Bo: "What does your friend do? Is he a policeman?"
Qian Bo smiled slightly and said, "Tanzi is not a policeman, but his mission is to punish evil and promote good. Moreover, he has a deep relationship with the police. His fiancée's whole family is a policeman."
Qian Bo pointed at Xiao Di who had been watching the excitement and said: "Her eldest brother is the captain of our Jiangzhou Criminal Police Team, and her father is the Provincial Public Security Department..."
"Qian Bo! What are you talking about?" Xiao Di on the side was unhappy and threw out the melon seeds in his hand and hit Qian Bo all over.
"I don't talk nonsense, I don't talk nonsense." Qian Bo immediately cupped his fists and apologized. Tan Xuan was afraid of Xiao Di because of love, and he was afraid of Xiao Di out of fear.
They were quarreling, but the village director over there couldn't sit still at all, so he pulled Tan Xuan and gave up his position.
"Leader, sit here, sit here."
Tan Xuan waved his hand, "There's no need to sit down. Since this happened to us, we can't let the bad guys get away with it, right? Brother Qian."
