Chapter 233 The Well Filler Who Died Consecutively
"Senior Butcher, what should I do?" I glanced at the Butcher and found that he also had a heavy expression at this time.
The butcher stared at the small willow tree under the well, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said to the drunkard and me: "Seal the well first, and don't tell the villagers about it for the time being."
Listening to the butcher's words, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows.
Why does this well grow a small willow tree instead of nothing else? There is obviously an unknown secret in this.
But what the butcher said was just to seal the well, but he didn't talk about the willow tree under the well at all.
I couldn't help but ask: "Senior Butcher, don't you think there is any connection between the little willow tree under the well and the old willow tree behind the village?"
As soon as I finished speaking, the Butcher quickly glanced at me and said, "Don't talk about this matter anymore. Willow God has always been the guardian of Willow Village, and no one can question it!"
I don't know what this butcher is. Usually, this man who is very prestigious in the village and has a calm mind will immediately refute me whenever I mention Liu Shen.
The butcher continued: "I'm going to call someone I trust to come over and help seal the well."
The butcher left without saying a word and quickly left. I looked at the small willow tree growing gradually under the well and couldn't help but frown.
At this time, the drunkard on the side patted me on the shoulder and said: "Little guy, do you know why the butcher is so protective of Liu Shen?"
I smiled bitterly, "I know, God Liu is the patron saint of your village."
"Hehe, it's not just for this reason." The drunkard paused and continued: "Many years ago, the Butcher was seriously injured and fell next to Liu Shen when he was about to die. When he woke up again, his body was
The injury has completely healed. It can be said that Liu Shen saved his life, so..."
Drunkards don't point it out directly, but as soon as I heard this, I soon became aware of it.
It’s no wonder that the Butcher protects Liu Shen so much. After all, Liu Shen is his savior, and I currently have almost no evidence of Liu Shen’s evil deeds.
Based on my own intuition, I think not only Liu Shen, but also the villagers in the village will not believe my words...
I looked at the drunkard and asked, "Senior drunkard, do you believe what I say?"
The drunkard chuckled and said, "Old drunkard, I only believe what I see in front of me..."
After a while, the butcher came over with several strong young men.
These young men all carried baskets of soil on their backs. As soon as they came over, they poured the soil into the well under the butcher's command without saying a word.
I stood aside and watched. Soon, the small willow tree under the well was covered with soil. However, the young men did not neglect and dug a lot of soil around the well with tools, completely filling the entire well.
The butcher was standing next to me. After seeing that the well was completely filled, he relaxed and said, "It's been a hard work, but remember not to mention it to others when you get back."
"Uncle Tian, don't worry, we all know it." Several young men clapped their hands and laughed.
Soon, the young men said goodbye and left, and the butcher walked up to me and said to me: "The well has been filled in, and the troublesome willow tree underneath must not live long, so let this matter be over...
"
I stared at the butcher's old face, feeling a little complicated.
I hesitated for a moment, and finally relied on my own intuition and said: "Senior Butcher, although the well has been filled, I always feel that things are not that simple. I will leave soon, but I still hope you can be more vigilant."
God, after all, there is no free lunch in the world, let alone expect a tree demon that has become a spirit to help you protect the village..."
As soon as I said these words, the butcher's face suddenly looked a little unhappy.
When the drunkards on the side saw him, they quickly came over to start a fight.
After a while, the butcher left. I looked at his back and couldn't help but sigh.
The drunkard also shook his head and said: "This old guy has such a temper, don't take it to heart. By the way, you said you were leaving, when do you plan to leave?"
"Just for these few days, I shouldn't stay too long." I said truthfully.
Previously, under the leadership of the butcher, I took a trip to the deep forest. The trip didn't take much time, but it left me with great benefits.
First of all, it is the improvement of my own strength, and also, after tempering, there is already a ball of condensed essence in the Dantian in my body.
According to the butcher, this mass of essence is extremely precious. Although it seems to have little effect now, in the days to come, as long as I can persist in practicing and improve my strength, it will not be a matter of minutes...
I looked back at the filled well, always with a bad premonition in my heart, but the butcher didn't say anything, but I didn't feel comfortable saying more. After all, in the eyes of the villagers in Liu Village, I
Still a foreigner.
It was already dark, and I returned to the house where I lived.
Xiaoshe was still sleeping soundly, and I covered him with a quilt again. This little guy played with Tian Sanniang for a long time during the day, and now he is sleeping soundly.
Xiaoshe's memory has been wiped out by drunkards, and the terrifying snake body has been solved, so I thought that I was going to take him back with me.
It just makes me a little troubled. Should I take this small house to the crematorium or take it home?
If you take her to the crematorium, it won't be easy to take care of her at such a young age.
But when I take him home, what should I say to the two people at home? I can't tell them that I have a three-year-old son outside. I like to be a father, and they like to be grandparents.
After packing my things all night, I quickly fell asleep on the bed.
…………
"Oops, someone died!"
"Come quickly, someone from the Wu San family is dead..."
Early in the morning, before I even opened my eyes, I heard bursts of noise coming from outside the house.
Xiaoshe was woken up all of a sudden and was looking at me with his black eyes.
I lazily walked outside the house, but I saw the butcher and the drunkard at a glance.
I quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
The butcher's face was not very good, and the drunkard said to me with a strange expression: "Remember the fat young man who came to fill the well last night?"
After hearing what the drunkard said, I quickly remembered that among the people the butcher called to fill the well last night, there was indeed a fat young man.
"Why did he die suddenly? Wasn't he fine last night?" I couldn't help but ask.
The drunkard also shook his head, "I don't know, let's go take a look first and then talk about it."
I followed the drunkard and the butcher towards the house where the noise came from. After a while, when we came to the door of the house, we already saw a lot of people surrounding the house.
As soon as the villagers saw the butcher coming, they quickly made way for us to come in.
Soon, among the crowd, I saw a body covered by clothes lying on the ground.
After the butcher and the drunkard looked at each other, the drunkard took the initiative to walk over and gently lifted the clothes covering the body a little.
I took a closer look and saw that the body under the clothes was revealing a livid face, which made me feel nervous!
I saw the eyes on the face of the person under the clothes were round, and his face was not only livid, but also a bit distorted...
When the surrounding villagers saw this face, they couldn't help but gasped.
The butcher walked over and squatted next to the corpse, stretched out his hand and gently touched the corpse's neck.
I clearly saw that there was an extremely obvious groove mark on the neck of the corpse. Based on my experience in burning corpses, I could tell that this corpse should have been hanged alive.
"Brother Tian, this little fat guy was fine last night, but when we got together this morning, I wanted to call him for breakfast, but I didn't expect to see him hanging in the room..." It was the deceased who spoke.
Father, his white hair is already slightly white, but now he is a white-haired person who wants to send a black-haired person, and his face is already full of tears.
The butcher pondered for a moment, but he couldn't help but sigh. He said: "I looked at the body, and it was indeed due to lack of oxygen after hanging. Did the little fat man have anything unhappy during his lifetime? Or, in other words, recently, he died
Is there anything unusual in the past few days?"
The father of the deceased thought for a while and said: "Everything has been going well these days. Xiaopang's personality has always been very cheerful. I know my own son best. How could he not think about committing suicide... Xiaopang,
Can you bear to let dad give you a black-haired man like this..."
Seeing the deceased's father sinking into grief, several relatives on the side quickly came over to comfort him.
Looking at this heavy scene in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a little confused.
I had obviously seen this little fat guy last night, and he even said hello to me when he left. But it was only one night, so why did he commit suicide?
Just when I was suspicious, suddenly, another exclamation came from outside the house.
"No, Zhang Qiang is also dead. Let's go and take a look..."
As this exclamation fell, my heart was inexplicably violently shaken!
Because I clearly remember that this man named Zhang Qiang was one of the young men called by the butcher to fill the well last night...
