Yu Hanjiang decided to use Liu Qiao's transformation card to pretend to be the village chief.
After three hours of monitoring the village chief's home in the afternoon, he roughly grasped the village chief's personality. The village chief was about thirty years old and his surname was Liu. Old Mrs. Qin called him "Xiao Liu". He knew seven people in the village.
He didn't know the origin of the gems, and Mrs. Qin only told him today that the gems were distributed into a "formation." So, it was very reasonable for him to go to Granny Sun for consultation if he had doubts.
There is a restriction on the twin card. If you want to pretend to be a person, you must have seen him within half an hour. Therefore, Yu Hanjiang had to go to the village chief's house to see what he looked like.
Liu Qiao reminded, "The twin card will completely copy a person's appearance and voice. This appearance must include the eyes. Once Captain Yu becomes the village chief, he is likely to become a blind person like him."
Xiao Lou was also worried about this. He looked at Yu Hanjiang and said, "The village chief has been blind since he was a child. He grew up in Liuxi Village and is very familiar with Liuxi Village. He doesn't have to worry about falling when he walks. But Captain Yu, if you copy him, he will become
If a blind man knocks over something at Grandma Sun's house, it will definitely arouse Grandma Sun's suspicion."
Yu Hanjiang thought for a while and said, "Let's do this. When I pretend to be the village chief later, Professor Xiao, you will be my eyes."
Xiao Lou was slightly startled, "You mean, let me put on the invisibility cloak and assist you by the side."
Yu Hanjiang nodded, "Well, you walk with me so that I won't make any mistakes."
Xiao Lou smiled, "No problem."
At 24:00, all card skills are refreshed.
The five people acted separately, and Liu Qiao took the lead with the flying card. She could observe the movements of the village more clearly at high altitude. If there was danger, she would issue an alarm in advance. At this time, the four-way arrow obtained in the secret room of Diamond 2
It is also very effective. Liu Qiao found the fastest and safest way and directly marked it with arrows for everyone.
Ye Qi and Shao Qingge followed closely with teleportation cards. The three of them arrived at the village chief's house first. Ye Qi threw an eavesdropping card over and confirmed that there was no sound from the village chief's house. The village chief and his rhubarb raised
The dogs were already asleep, and Ye Qi called Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang through the telepathic channel, "The village chief's family has confirmed that it is safe."
Yu Hanjiang put on an invisibility cloak and entered the village chief's house.
He looked at the village chief first, so that he could activate the copying effect of the twin card.
The invisibility cloak had 30 minutes, and Yu Hanjiang took the opportunity to conduct a search at the village chief's house. At this time, the village chief was sleeping soundly. There was only one bedroom in his house, he did not marry a wife and had children, and lived alone.
Yu Hanjiang found a map hanging on the wall of the village chief's house. It was a layout map of Liuxi Village. The four directions of east, south, west and north were marked. There were also some words and many bulges next to each house.
The small dots looked like Braille. Yu Hanjiang could not read Braille, but he speculated that these marks were to make it easier for the village chief to remember the location of each household.
In addition to the bedroom on the west side, there is also a large cabinet on the wall in the east room. Yu Hanjiang entered the room with gentle steps, opened the cabinet door and saw several thick folders in the cabinet, with the year marked on them.
This should be the historical data left by the ancestors of the village
The room was too dark, so Yu Hanjiang simply pulled out all the folders.
When he went out, he saw a garden with some small white flowers planted in it, blooming under the moonlight. Many people in the village had these flowers. He scanned the yard and found some residue in the corner of the garden. Yu Hanjiang squatted
When he came down and took a closer look, he saw that they seemed to be the remains of some traditional Chinese medicine. He picked up a few pieces and took them outside the door.
The four of them were waiting for him outside the door. Yu Hanjiang handed the folder to Xiao Lou and showed Xiao Lou the residue found. "Professor Xiao, a large amount of residue was found in the garden and thrown in the corner."
Xiao Lou came over and smelled it, and said, "It should be a Chinese medicine to survive."
Liu Qiao also jumped down from the tree, looked at the thick folder and said, "Are these village information?"
Yu Hanjiang nodded, "The village chief's family indeed has clues. These information are all written in Chinese characters. He is blind and can't see. They should have been passed down from his ancestors and kept in the house by the village chiefs of all generations."
Xiao Lou opened the first folder, and what he recorded was indeed the history of Liuxi Village.
There are four surnames in Liuxi Village: the Qin family, the Liu family, the Sun family, and the Lin family. Many years ago, their ancestors discovered this fertile paradise in the mountains, reclaimed wasteland, and settled here. Initially, there were only a dozen people in Liuxi Village.
, after generations of reproduction, the population of the village gradually increased, and finally stabilized at more than a hundred households.
The first few folders record the population of each household in the village, just like a household registration book.
The last folder should be the latest one, with more detailed records. Most of them are records of some events in the village. On which year and month, whose family had a new baby boy; whose family held a wedding banquet; whose family’s
Trivial events such as the old man's death due to illness were all recorded with a pen, and the handwriting was consistent, just like printing.
Yu Hanjiang said, "Looking at the time, it should have been left by the village chief of the previous generation, who is the grandfather of the current village chief."
Xiao Lou looked at the record book and frowned slightly, "The massacre of the village occurred more than thirty years ago, and the records also happened to be more than thirty years ago. Let's focus on the last year. What must have happened in the village.
"
Yu Hanjiang flipped the folder to the end, where there was a first-person self-narration.
"The weather has been good this year, and every household has had a good harvest. During the New Year, a few young people came to the village, saying they were here for inspection. We rarely see outsiders in the village, and everyone was very wary of these people at first, but then
Several people had very good attitudes, taught the villagers a lot of knowledge, and gave many fresh toys to the children.
I decided to cooperate with them in investigating the surroundings of the village. It is said that there are very rich jade resources around the village, and a lot of money can be made by mining jade. We don’t understand jade, but the bracelet the little girl is wearing is very beautiful, she said
It is a natural cat's eye stone. If the jade in our village can be mined and processed, it can also be made into such beautiful bracelets.
My daughter likes her bracelets very much. I think if I can cooperate with them to mine jade and make a lot of money, when the village has money, maybe our village can build a road in the future so that everyone can go outside and have a look."
The record ends abruptly here.
Liu Qiao frowned and looked at the row of neat pen characters and said, "The seven cats' eye stones are indeed bracelets, but there is no record of where the girl wearing the bracelet went. What happened in the village?"
Yu Hanjiang said, "That girl may be dead."
Xiao Lou nodded in agreement, "Only when she dies, her bracelets will be distributed in the village in a way similar to a memorial ceremony, forming a human shape for the villagers to protect from generation to generation. This kind of memorial ceremony should be done by her relatives.
"
There is no need for strangers to keep the belongings of the deceased. The girl wearing the bracelet who appears in the village chief's records must be the key person who caused the whole incident.
Shao Qingge touched his chin and said, "The people who came to the village are obviously experts in jade. They accidentally discovered that there are rich jade resources hidden in Liuxi Village. Many jade raw materials look no different from ordinary stones on the surface, but after opening
, there will be pure natural jade inside, which will be priceless after processing."
Ye Qi said excitedly, "I've also heard of people betting on stones and spending thousands of dollars to buy wool. In the end, it turned out to be precious jade worth hundreds of thousands, and they became rich overnight."
"There has indeed been such an example. If Liuxi Village really had rich jade resources, it wouldn't be a dream for the villagers to get rich overnight." Shao Qingge looked at Captain Yu and asked, "What was the cause of this girl's death?"
Yu Hanjiang said, "The reason for the murder was nothing more than love, wealth, and sex. The possibility of killing for love is very small. She, a foreign eldest lady, should not have emotional entanglements with the villagers. She was wearing a seven-natural cat's eye bracelet, which was obviously
She is very rich, and the villagers may be greedy for money and kill her; or she is very beautiful, and some villagers may take advantage of her and play tricks on her."
Xiao Lou touched his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "That girl, is she blind?"
When everyone heard this, a chill ran down their spines.
If the girl happens to be blind, and the villagers bully her or even kill her because of her blindness, then her relatives will come to the village to take revenge, and even go to the extreme to massacre the entire village and scatter the girl's bracelets throughout the village.
, let the descendants of the villagers guard it as a treasure, the cause and effect can be explained.
Mrs. Qin once mentioned a saying: Those who bully a blind man will suffer retribution.
Is that girl really blind? Everyone is just speculating, and there is no way to be sure.
Yu Hanjiang said simply, "Mrs. Qin and Granny Sun must be insiders. Today, Mrs. Qin has already talked with the village chief. Next, we will go to Granny Sun's house to investigate."
Xiao Lou nodded and quickly followed Captain Yu.
Liu Qiao continued to take the lead. She first flew to Grandma Sun's house and found a big tree to hide in. Grandma Sun was still boiling medicine in the kitchen like last night, and the strange smell of Chinese medicine floated in the air.
Everyone felt a chill when they thought that there were still human bones in the medicine jar.
Liu Qiao signaled Ye Qi, and Ye Qi threw the bug onto the wall of Granny Sun's house. Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou and whispered, "I am now the village chief. Professor Xiao, please put on the invisibility cloak.
He helped me in so that I wouldn't fall out of sight."
Xiao Lou nodded, "Don't worry. If something goes wrong, I will take you directly back to the Peach Blossom Spring."
Liu Qiao reminded, "The transformation of the twin cards can currently last for 10 minutes. Professor Xiao, please be careful."
Originally, the transformation could only last for 8 minutes, but Liu Qiao transformed once in the early morning and afternoon yesterday. The growth rate of the s card has increased, and now it can last for 10 minutes.
Time is precious, so Yu Hanjiang stopped talking and immediately took out his twin card and turned himself into the village chief. The clone he created was exactly the same as the village chief himself, and it was impossible to tell the difference with the naked eye.
Xiao Lou put on his invisibility cloak, gently held his arm beside him, and led him away.
To outsiders, it looked like the "village chief" came to the door alone, but in fact Xiao Lou had been helping to guide Yu Hanjiang.
Xiao Lou whispered, "Captain Yu, let's go."
The "village chief" did not move, but frowned.
The four of them were a little confused about "Captain Yu"
Yu Hanjiang whispered, "I can see it."
Four people ""
Yu Hanjiang gently rubbed his eyes and said, "The village chief is not blind, he can see."
This unexpected discovery left everyone speechless with surprise.
The twin card is a "complete copy", which Liu Qiao has verified before. The voice, eyesight, height and body shape, including disability characteristics will also be copied. If the village chief is blind, then the village chief copied by Yu Hanjiang will also be
blind.
Now that Yu Hanjiang can see after becoming the village chief, it only means that the village chief himself can see.
The five people fell into silence at the same time. After a while, Xiao Lou said, "The person who can see is actually the village chief who has never shown his face."
Yu Hanjiang quickly made a decision, "Time is limited, I'd better go in and find Granny Sun as soon as possible. Professor Xiao, follow me. If something goes wrong, we will teleport directly back to Peach Blossom Spring."
Xiao Lou nodded and continued to follow Yu Hanjiang invisibly.
The two of them entered Grandma Sun's house side by side.
Yu Hanjiang imitated the walking of a blind man, and the imitation was quite similar. Grandma Sun was boiling medicine in the kitchen. When she heard the footsteps, she raised her head and looked at the village chief who walked in step by step. A smile appeared on her face and she said, "
Village Chief Liu, it’s so late, why don’t you come to see me?”
Yu Hanjiang said, "Grandma Sun, I can't sleep. I have something to ask you."
Grandma Sun stretched out her hands and groped her way into the house. Yu Hanjiang followed, and the two of them found stools in the house to sit down.
Outside, Ye Qi and the others pricked up their ears and eavesdropped.
Grandma Sun said, "If you have any questions, you have to come to me in the middle of the night."
Yu Hanjiang asked calmly, "Today Aunt Qin told me that the seven gems guarded by the villagers formed a graphic formation in the village. She also said that as long as the gems are guarded well, after seven generations we can lift the seal and change
After being cursed by fate, future generations can also regain their light. Mother-in-law, you and Aunt Qin are both elders of the village. You should have heard of this matter."
Grandma Sun said, "Yes, that's what I heard."
Yu Hanjiang said calmly, "I don't believe this statement."
Grandma Sun smiled and said, "Why don't you believe that Aunt Qin didn't lie to you?"
Yu Hanjiang said, "If the whole village is really cursed, then why can you and I see it?"
Grandma Sun ""
The three people eavesdropping outside ""
Xiao Lou was used to Yu Hanjiang's straight shots, but Granny Sun was obviously not used to it. She was stunned by this question, and the look on her face suddenly became distorted. She lowered her voice and said, "Village Chief, I can see what you are talking about."
Yu Hanjiang suddenly stretched out two fingers, pretending to dig out her eyes, and she instinctively ducked back.
Yu Hanjiang took back his hand and said, "Are you still pretending not to see it?"
Grandma Sun's face was extremely ugly. Yu Hanjiang stared into her eyes and said coldly, "You are the one who prescribes the medicines for the whole village. You are in control of what medicine I usually take. Isn't it surprising? How could I do this?"
Not blind yet”
Grandma Sun's lips trembled violently, and she said sternly, "How could you hide it from me for so long? I watched you grow up, and I personally gave you those medicines."
Yu Hanjiang said lightly, "Have you ever thought that I was born allergic to some medicines? I didn't take all the medicines you prescribed. Most of them were poured out in the garden. It's because of this that I escaped death."
I was poisoned and blinded by you."
Granny Sun's face suddenly became extremely ugly, her body was trembling slightly, and she stared at Yu Hanjiang, speechless.
Yu Hanjiang stared sharply at the old lady in front of him and said, "Grandma Sun, why on earth are you doing this? How come the people in our village have offended you? You are so cruel that you will turn all the children blind."
Grandma Sun suddenly laughed. Her sharp, harsh laughter sounded like a ghost in the middle of the night.
She giggled for a long time before saying with a cold face, "Retribution, the people in your village deserve such retribution, hahahaha."
Yu Hanjiang immediately caught the key point in his words, "You are not from Liuxi Village."
Grandma Sun realized that she had slipped her words, and her face became extremely gloomy. She stared at Yu Hanjiang's face and said, "Village Chief Liu, why did you suddenly become so strange today? Before, you rarely said so many words to an old woman like me.
."
Yu Hanjiang said calmly, "Because my family's gems were stolen, I have always been curious about the use of those gems. As you said, it was to break the seal. I have been the village chief for so many years in a daze. I just want to know the truth."
Grandma Sun stared at him like a poisonous snake, "You are not Village Chief Liu at all."
Yu Hanjiang's heart skipped a beat, but he pretended to be calm on the surface: "Mother-in-law, how come you don't even recognize me?"
Grandma Sun said coldly, "Every time Village Chief Liu goes out, he takes his rhubarb with him. That dog is his only relative and has been with him for nearly ten years. You came to me in the middle of the night, but you didn't bring that dog with you."
Tell me, dog, who are you?"
Yu Hanjiang didn't expect that Village Chief Liu still had this habit and actually showed his flaws in this detail.
Grandma Sun picked up a bell and suddenly shook it hard. Obviously, she wanted to wake up the villagers and let everyone catch Yu Hanjiang who was pretending to be the village chief. At this critical moment, Ye Qi suddenly said, "Oh no, hurry up."
Get out, the real village chief is here."
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou ""
While Granny Sun turned around, Xiao Lou took Yu Hanjiang and teleported back to Peach Blossom Spring.
The next moment, the village chief slowly walked in from the door with a dog on his hands and said, "Grandma Sun, you are the oldest senior in the village. I have something to ask you. What are the uses of the seven gems? Aunt Qin told
I am trying to break the curse, but I feel something is not right."
Grandma Sun's face was ugly: "Go and fetch the dog now, is it too late?"
The village chief was stunned, "What do you mean?"
Grandma Sun suddenly shook the bell. The harsh sound of the bell broke the silence of the night. Everyone around was awakened. Grandma Sun said sternly, "Arrest this guy who is pretending to be the village chief."
The villagers took action immediately. The face of the village chief who was tied up changed greatly. "You are crazy. I am the village chief. Let me go."
Granny Sun's eyes were sinister: "This is the result of a stranger. He can see it with his eyes. Don't be fooled. Carry him out of the village and feed him to the wolves."
The villagers listened to Grandma Sun's words and directly carried the village chief out.
Xiao Lou and others looked at each other in shock when they heard the movement in the bug.
Yu Hanjiang said, "Grandma Sun should have realized that this is the real village chief. She is looking for an excuse to get rid of the village chief, because the village chief can see and has begun to doubt her and discovered her secrets."
Xiao Lou thought for a while and suddenly said, "In Liuxi Village, there is more than one thing that can be seen with the eyes."
Ye Qi also reacted, "Yes, Granny Sun can see it, and the village chief can also see it, but the village chief doesn't seem like a bad person."
Yu Hanjiang pretended to be the village chief because he wanted to talk to Granny Sun. In fact, even if he hadn't pretended, the village chief would have come to ask Granny Sun tonight. However, by adding chaos like this, Granny Sun made a ruthless decision to get rid of the villagers.
long.
The hole you dig must be buried by yourself.
Xiao Lou helplessly raised his head and said, "Let's go rescue the innocent village chief."
He had an intuition that Granny Sun had summoned the villagers to drive away the village chief. This unknowing village chief might be a friend and could help them uncover the secrets of the year.
