Chapter 838: Getting to the Bottom of the Matter
A lot of rich people have done a lot of things that ordinary people can't do, some things we can imagine, and some things we can't imagine.
"Uncle, I said call the police! Why didn't anyone call the police? Then. "Fat Wu is still struggling with this thing that has been going on for many years.
The old man snorted and said: "It's useless, where was that era like now, I called the police in that era, and I just looked for it, fooled around, and if I couldn't find it, it would be over!" Our place is poor, but it's no worse than the big city. ”
"Hey!" Fat Wu thumped his feet, his face full of regret.
But I pondered it, and I always felt that there was something strange about it!
The old man continued: "Later, for a while, as long as it was night, there were crying, screaming, and shouting from the back mountain of our village. The cry sounded like Zhou Shi's, and it sounded very infiltrating. Everyone heard it, and some people saw Zhang Xianju running to the back mountain to burn paper! Then the crying lasted for a while and then it stopped. ”
"Originally, this matter has been turned over, and everyone has forgotten what happened back then! But a few nights before Zhang Xianju's death, that cry sounded in the back mountain again, and it was still the same as back then, and most people in our village heard it. Later, that Zhang Xianju died, just like Zhang Shi's death back then, and he didn't even leave a corpse. ”
"You say, isn't it Zhou Shishi's soul who came back to take revenge?"
Listening to the old man's words, it was really a bit unexpected to me, and they all heard it! If one or two people heard it, it might be fake, and if most of the people in the village heard it, it couldn't be fake.
Could it really be that a ghost did it?
No, no! If it was a goblin, how could I not see it?
There is no residual breath in the air on the ground, this is not enough.
I pondered for a while, looked at the old man and asked, "Uncle, did you say that Zhou Youwei was also involved in the killing of Zhou Shishi?" ”
I'll figure things out first!
The uncle nodded and said: "Yes, Zhou Youwei was at home at that time, and when Zhou Shishi was beaten for the first time, he was beaten by Zhou Youwei. At that time, there was a lot of commotion in the village, and a few people in the village went to pull it, and he also warned people not to meddle in their affairs. ”
Hearing this, I nodded thoughtfully and asked, "That's why Zhou Youwei was spurned in the village, right?" ”
The old man shook his head and said: "It's not all, anyway, what their family is doing is not conducive to unity at all, as if the whole village is calculating their family, in fact, it is their own character that has problems." ”
Again, if one or two think they can't do it, it may be someone else's problem! If the whole village thinks they can't do it, then they really can't.
I will go back and ask Zhou Youwei about this, I need to confirm, I need an affirmative answer! Because this incident may have something to do with his mother's disappearance.
Thinking of this, I looked at the uncle and continued to ask: "By the way, uncle, there is one more thing!" Is there a rumor about a big rat in your village? I've heard people say that there are big rats here. ”
When the uncle heard this, his eyes widened and he said, "Yes, there are many big mice!" You go to the garbage heap at night to take a look, that place is full of big rats, many of them are one or two catties, and there are often rats in my granary to steal rice to eat, in the countryside, there is nothing else, there are the most rats, what's the matter? Are you going to catch rats to eat? ”
Eat!
This uncle is really creative, although there are indeed people eating outside, but I don't have that taste.
I shook my head and said, "No, it's not such a mouse, I mean a big mouse!" Rats the size of cows, have they ever appeared here? ”
"A rat the size of a cow?" The old man repeated this sentence, then laughed, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, besides, how can there be such a big mouse?" Also, who told you that we have such a big rat infestation in this place? ”
I just want to ask the old man for some clues about the giant rat, he stepped on the mouse feces twice, I think he should know about the mouse, but it seems that the old man doesn't know.
I thought about it for a moment and said, "It's just a friend who told me that we came over, so just ask!" ”
"Huh! Nonsense. The old man didn't delve into this problem, but just complained about those two words.
"By the way, uncle, are there any legends or stories about rats?"
The old man thought for a moment and said: "There are many stories about rats stealing rice, I haven't heard the kind of story you said about rats having big cows!" But there used to be an old storyteller in the village next door, and that gentleman should know some of the stories of the big rats you mentioned! ”
"Where's the storyteller?" If I can collect these kinds of stories, it will undoubtedly be a breakthrough for me to do this, and it will also make me more sure that there are underground people in this place.
Because of this kind of place where there are underground people's hearts, there must have been more than one giant rat incident! So many years ago, there must have been a legend about giant rats in this place, and this way of transmission was passed down in the form of stories.
The old man raised his hand and pointed to the back mountain, and said with a smile: "In our back mountain, but in that place, there is no one, a few years ago there was a mudslide in the middle of the night in their village, and many people died in the village, and the old gentleman also died." ”
I looked up at the mountain, which was so continuous that there was a road over it, and it looked like there was more than one village living there!
But the village is gone, everyone is dead, what else is there to say?
Listening to the old man's nonsense, I shook my head helplessly and said, "Okay, then thank you, uncle!" We still have something to do, so we'll go back first. ”
As we spoke, we said goodbye to the old man and left!
On the way back, Fat Wu kept scolding Zhou Youwei angrily, saying that Zhou Youwei was not a thing! After scolding for a while, he noticed that I didn't speak, and asked me, "What's wrong with you?" Mr. Li, why didn't you speak all the way? ”
I pondered for a moment and said, "I'm thinking about Zhou Youwei!" If Zhou Youwei and his mother really killed Zhou Shishi in the first place, it is unlikely that Zhou Youwei would have gotten to this point! ”
"How could it be? I think it's quite possible, most of those rich people have lives in their hands! The ruthlessness of those people is not something that ordinary people can imagine, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as killing people without seeing blood. ”
I didn't answer this question again, but just said, "When Zhou Youwei comes back, let's ask him." ”
Listening to my words, Fat Wu snorted and didn't say anything more.
When they returned to Zhou Youwei's house, they had already returned, saying that they had brought something to eat and came back to eat together. During the meal, I didn't ask anything, and seeing that I didn't speak, Wu Fatzi naturally didn't say anything.
After eating, we sat on the sofa at Zhou Youwei's house to rest, and he asked where we had just been!
I didn't answer his question, but asked him straight to the point: "Do you know Zhou Shishi?" ”
When questioned, I stared into his eyes. As soon as he heard my words, Zhou Youwei's face instantly sank! There was a smile just now, but now the smile stiffens directly on his face.
Obviously, this name is familiar to him and has a certain deterrent effect on him!
"You, why did you talk about him all of a sudden?" Zhou Youwei picked up his teacup in a little panic, unscrewed the lid and took a sip extremely unnaturally.
I said lightly: "You and your mother, beat him to death?" ”
"Nope!" Zhou Youwei stood up from the sofa violently and said, "No, we didn't kill him!" Don't listen to the nonsense of the people in the village. ”
