I quickly put down my chopsticks and looked back at Xia You.
Xia You frowned, turned around and walked out of the room.
I followed Xia You and heard a burst of laughter coming from outside the yard. The woman really seemed to be crazy.
"The evil spirit is coming! The evil spirit is coming! Everyone is going to die! Everyone is going to die!" The woman yelled, roaring crazily, with a look of fear on her face.
"Hey...he is a good person, why did he go crazy?" The old man walked out of the room and said with a sigh.
I glanced at the old man's face and asked softly: "What's going on?"
"Who knows what's going on? I don't know what's going on these days. I stand at the door of Wang's house every day, shouting that the evil spirit is coming! I guess she must have seen it at night.
The evil spirit of the Wang family!" The old man sighed and didn't bother to pay attention. He turned and walked towards the house.
I glanced at Xia You, nodded to her, and then walked slowly out of the yard.
Sanwazi was pulling his wife's arm angrily, and whipped her body, "Why don't you come with me? You are embarrassing yourself here, are you really crazy?"
Snap...there was another sound, and the whip fell on the woman again.
I watched from the side and frowned suddenly.
Xia You sighed and walked up slowly, "There's no way you can beat her like this. I'll come over and try to persuade her. Maybe she can get better!"
"This bitch needs whipping! If you dare to stop talking to me, I'll beat her to death!" Sanwazi yelled and raised the whip again.
I grabbed his arm all of a sudden, with a hint of coldness on my face.
Sanwazi was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, "This woman..."
"She is your wife, should she be beaten like this?" I glared at him.
Xia You sighed, walked slowly to the woman, and whispered a few words. Strangely enough, the woman's originally frightened expression suddenly became much more peaceful, and she actually looked at her with dull eyes.
Sanwazi.
Sanwazi was a little angry, "Why don't you go home with me? Do you want to be embarrassed here?"
I hesitated for a moment and walked up, "I'll take you back. I'll have a helper."
Sanwazi wanted to refuse, but looking at my cold face, he hesitated.
"Xia You, take her with you and let's send her back. She looks like a pitiful person!" I said with a move in my heart.
Xia You nodded, took the woman's arm, and walked slowly towards the other end of the village. I could see that Xia You really pitied this woman. Maybe this woman had encountered something unexpected, but she definitely
You shouldn't be treated like this.
Along the way, many people around were pointing and talking in low voices. Especially the words about evil spirits were spoken very loudly. I sighed, maybe this kind of place with inconvenient transportation,
Be more respectful towards these things.
It wasn't until I walked to the other side of the village that I discovered a dilapidated small courtyard. Not to mention compared to the Wang family's, this courtyard was much shabby even compared to the old man's family where I lived.
I sighed in my heart, this kid is probably a lazy person, and living his life to this point is probably even more embarrassing than his wife going crazy.
I looked around the room, but there wasn't even a clean seat.
Sanwazi entered the house, pushed his wife into the next room, cursed loudly, then turned around and walked out.
"Two guests, my house has not had good harvests in recent years, so it looks a little dilapidated!" Sanwazi said hurriedly, "You two, sit down quickly, I will get you some water right now!"
A trace of disgust flashed in Xia You's eyes. If it weren't for me, I would have turned around and left.
I nodded and watched Sanwazi turn around and enter the back room. Then I found a cleaner place and sat down.
Xia You glanced at me suspiciously but said nothing.
"Come on, come on! Drink water!" Sanwazi said hurriedly.
Xia You waved his hand, showing no interest at all. I took the water, but didn't drink it, just put it in the palm of my hand.
"When did your wife become like this?" I asked with a frown.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Sanwazi's face. He looked left and right, and after feeling that no one was there, he said: "This happened three days ago. After my wife came back from her parents' home that day, she became like this!
"
"After you came back from your parents' home?" I was stunned and looked at him suspiciously.
Sanwazi nodded hurriedly, "Who says it's not the case? I have been married to my mother-in-law for many years, and she goes back to her parents' house every now and then. Nothing happened before. Who knew it would be like this this time..."
"Where is your mother-in-law's natal family?" I asked quickly.
"It's just behind the mountain, it's not a long journey!" Sanwazi chuckled.
I lowered my voice and asked with twinkling eyes: "When your wife usually goes back to her parents' house, does she take the path behind Wang's house?"
Sanwazi stood up suddenly, with a look of fear on his face, "You...you...how did you know?"
"Don't ask me how I know, I'm asking you if this is the case?" My eyes were a little cold.
Sanwazi swallowed and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, that's the path we took!"
I looked back at Xia You, and there was fear in Xia You's eyes, "Isn't that path impossible to walk on?"
I turned my face and looked at Sanwazi with a cold expression.
Sanwazi looked a little panicked and said with evasive eyes: "I...look, you are going to the town to buy meat today..."
"Give him a thousand yuan!" I said, with a sneer in my heart. No wonder these three boys were so enthusiastic. It turned out that they wanted to rip off Xia You and I because we had some property.
Xia You hurriedly took out a thousand yuan and slapped it on the table, "Tell me, what's going on with that path?"
"Actually, I don't know either! That path was originally walkable, but then it became impossible to walk on it. Some people said that there was some evil spirit in it, so people from the Wang family could only be allowed to walk on it! Later, my mother-in-law went back to her parents' house and happened to see
When the boss of the Wang family wanted to go out to drive away corpses, I thought of walking that road with him. After all, it would be dozens of miles away..." As Sanwazi said, he looked at the money on the table and kept licking it.
The corners of your own mouth.
I half-closed my eyes and my eyes flickered.
"Ever since that time, my mother-in-law said that the boss of the Wang family gave her an amulet and she could walk on that path as she pleased!" Sanwazi spoke again.
"What about the amulet?" I asked hurriedly.
Sanwazi hurriedly touched his pocket, then suddenly stopped and raised his head with a red face.
I sneered and winked at Xia You.
Xia You nodded hurriedly, took out a thousand yuan from his pocket again, and slapped it on the table.
Sanwazi immediately smiled and quickly took out the paper talisman from his arms and handed it into my hand. I opened the paper talisman and looked over quickly. I was stunned. There was something on the paper talisman.
None! The amulet given by the boss of the Wang family didn't have a word on it, it was just a blank piece of yellow paper.
Xia You glanced at me, took the paper talisman with understanding and put it into his arms.
I stood up and said to Sanwazi: "I don't want anyone to know what happened today. In addition, I want to tell you that if I beat my mother-in-law again, let alone give you the two thousand, even
I can even burn your house down for you!"
"Yes, yes! I will definitely stop fighting in the future, I will never fight again!" Sanwazi responded and hurriedly stood up.
I turned around and walked out of the yard, my eyes flickering for a while. Xia You beside me said softly: "The amulet given by the boss of the Wang family is blank, which means that there should be no problem with the path!"
I nodded, "Maybe the people in the village are just too worried, or maybe the Wang family has already dealt with the so-called evil spirit!"
"Tianju, do you think the old man's words were meant to deceive us?" Xia You stopped and asked with a frown.
I half-squinted my eyes and nodded, "Yes! But it shouldn't be many! The things he said can be easily exposed as long as we make a little inquiry, so there is no need for him to lie to us. At most, he can only hide it.
Got some truth!"
"Then let's..." Xia You turned around.
I looked around and found that many people's eyes were attracted to me and Xia You. These people were more or less curious, but they were more shy about things. After all, they might not understand yesterday.
But after one night, everyone will know that we are here to find the Wang family.
"Go back first. I have to go to the Wang family again tonight. There are some things that I must check in person!" I whispered.
Xia You was stunned for a moment, "Are you still going tonight?"
"That's right!" I nodded and returned to the yard. The old man watched Xia You and I come back, and just sighed softly and didn't say much.
Ring ring ring... At this moment, Xia You's phone rang.
I watched Xia You turn around and go to a secluded place, and ignored him. Instead, he went straight back to the room. After a while, Xia You walked in from the door, stared at my face and said, "Found it."
Got it!"
"How is it?" I asked.
Xia You said: "I asked someone to inquire in the town, and I heard that the boss of the Wang family went to a place in Yunyin Village that day. It is said that someone died there, so let him go there to get rid of the body!"
I half-squinted my eyes, "Then what?"
"Then the boss of the Wang family and the corpse disappeared..."
