I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

My waist is no longer sore, my legs are no longer painful, I am no longer short of breath, and I can walk with strength

"Jie Yuan?" The village chief was stunned for a while when he heard this address, and then he was surprised and stunned: "That's the number one scholar in the rural examination! It's amazing, the old man can't see Mount Tai with his eyes"

The village chief may not have heard of Gu Ming's name, but he has a little understanding of the meaning of the word "Jie Yuan", and his expression suddenly becomes more respectful, and he bows his hands at Gu Ming again and again.

Qianjiazhuang has a long history and has been passed down for nearly [-] years.

According to the genealogy records, there have been three Qian's ancestors who have won the election so far, and the latest one is less than a hundred years ago.

Qian Pingzhi is the great-great-grandson of this person. He was very intelligent since he was a child. He passed the examination of scholar at the age of 16, and was regarded by the villagers as the most promising person to become the fourth person in the Qian family.

It's a pity, considering that I failed the provincial examination three times last year, I'm unavoidably depressed.

"Second Uncle, Gu Jieyuan is not only talented, he is also said to be able to call wind and rain, subdue demons and slay demons. He is indeed a model that our generation looks up to."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Niang couldn't help exclaiming: "Oh my God, no wonder I felt that Mr. Gu was extraordinary before."

"Okay, everyone doesn't have to be so polite," Gu Ming smiled and waved his hands: "To be honest, I looked at the Feng Shui pattern of your village from a high place before, and I saw something wrong."

Hearing this, the village chief couldn't help asking anxiously: "Could it be that Mr. Gu thinks that the villagers are sick because of this?"

"That's right, there was no problem with the layout of your Qianjiazhuang, but someone secretly tampered with it.

Although I don't know what the opponent's method is, I can roughly judge the opponent's purpose.

To put it simply, he destroyed the fortune accumulated by Qianjiazhuang over the years, causing the yin in the village to slowly accumulate.

Over time, it will lead to the lingering coldness in the body of the people in the village, just like Zhiping, the bones of the body are getting thinner day by day, and no medicine will work. The only way is to stay away from Qianjiazhuang."

The faces of the village head, Qian Pingzhi, Qian Pingde, and Qiaoniang changed in shock after hearing the speech.

Although they seem to understand half of what they heard, they still have some understanding of the word yin and cold.

Ghosts, aren't they cold things?

Being caught in the cold is like being entangled by a little ghost. It is no wonder that sick people will have hallucinations from time to time, as if they are possessed by evil spirits.

"How could this be? Who is so vicious? Want to kill our whole village?"

The village chief's face was pale, and he muttered to himself in a trembling voice.

"This is exactly the source of what I said. Think about it carefully, who on earth has such a great hatred for your Qianjiazhuang, and actually used such outrageous means?"

"Our Qianjiazhuang has a large population, so it's impossible to say that we don't have any conflicts with outsiders.

But if you want to say that such a big hatred for the old man will be unexpected for a while. "

Qian Zhiping also looked puzzled: "Our village has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the villagers have always been self-disciplined, and it is rare to have conflicts with outsiders.

Even if someone offends someone outside, it is a matter for both parties, so it won't involve all the villagers, right? "

Gu Ming reminded: "Think about it, especially those who know this business, have you ever had any disputes with such people?"

Having said that, Qian Pingzhi and the others couldn't help but frown in thought.

"Hey, I thought of someone!"

Not long after, Qian Yide suddenly drank.

"Who?"

"Two bolts!"

Upon hearing the word Ershuan, the faces of the village head, Qian Pingzhi, and Qiaoniang suddenly became strange.

Speaking of the Ershuan, he was very prestigious in Qianjiazhuang back then.

Er Shuan was his nickname, and he had an older brother named Da Shuan.

One: the ancestor of Er Shuan is the descendant of the first person to be promoted in the genealogy.

Second: Er Shuan belongs to the direct line of the head of the house, and his grandfather is the patriarch of the Qian clan, and his prestige is much higher than that of the village head.

Third: Er Shuan went out to do business with his uncle when he was young, met some people in the world, and learned some martial arts and small skills.

To sum up, this guy has always been domineering in the village, especially people with foreign surnames in the village are often bullied by him.

"Brother De, Er Shuan has been away from the village for five years. It is said that he is doing well in the capital. It is unlikely that it is him, right?"

Qian Pingzhi was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't help saying something to Qian Pingde.

Qian Pingde spread his hands: "Then I really can't think of who it is, only this guy hates our village the most."

"That's right, that's right." Qiao Niang nodded in agreement, with a look of lingering fear: "When that guy left the village, he cursed so viciously, and his appearance is still a bit scary when I think about it."

"That makes sense." The village chief nodded thoughtfully, "But anyway, he is the blood of the Qian family, so he wouldn't do such a treacherous thing, would he?"

"Father, he can even kill his own brother for a shameless woman, what else is he afraid to do?"

"This"

Hearing the call, Gu Ming couldn't help asking: "Who is this Er Shuan you mentioned? He is also a villager in your Qianjiazhuang?"

The village chief nodded with a wry smile, then shook his head: "Er Shuan used to be from our Qian family village, but he was expelled from the Qian family five years ago and ordered him never to return to the village.

Even if he died, he was not eligible to be buried in the Qian family's ancestral grave. "

"Is there such a thing?"

Gu Ming couldn't help frowning.

Generally speaking, from the royal aristocracy to the common people, they all valued their surname and clan very highly.

The larger the clan, the more important the clan's blood and reputation are.

Once a disciple in the clan makes a big mistake, the heaviest punishment is not execution, but expulsion from the clan, his name will also be removed from the genealogy, and he will not be buried in the ancestral grave after death.

"That's right, after this kid was expelled, he stood at the entrance of the village and scolded a lot of ugly words, saying that one day he will make the people in Qianjiazhuang regret it and make everyone die badly."

"What the hell did this guy do wrong?"

Gu Ming asked curiously.

"This"

The village chief hesitated for a while, and finally slowly explained the reason.

It was shocking indeed.

Er Shuan left home when he was young, and returned after traveling abroad for almost ten years.

When he came back, he was still alone.

His elder brother was three years older than him, and because his wife died early, he married a woman named Aji.

This girl came from a small wealthy family. It can be said that her heart is higher than the sky, and her life is thinner than paper.

Relying on her good looks, she wanted to marry into a wealthy family, but in the end, if she couldn't get high or low, she would delay until she was in her early 20s.

It's even worse to marry now.

There are matchmakers, but most of them are concubines for others. Aji knows that being a concubine is hard, so naturally he doesn't want to go.

In the end, she chose to marry Dashuan.

I thought it would be fine to spend my whole life in peace. After all, although my husband's family is a farmer, the conditions are acceptable. The family has a house, fields and food, at least better than her mother's.

As a result, as soon as Er Shuan came home, the two of them stared at Mung Dou like bastards, and they fell in love with each other.

Er Shuan Kong Wu is powerful, and he has been working outside for more than ten years, so he has the air of a person from the Jianghu.

When Aji saw it, his heart was a little ready to move.

Both sides saw a little meaning in each other's eyes.

There was no need for anyone to seduce anyone, it was almost a matter of course, after Er Shuan returned to his hometown for a few days, he took a chance and planted a clump of grass on his elder brother's head.

Poor Da Shuan still didn't know it, and instead ordered his daughter-in-law to take care of Er Shuan more, saying that Er Shuan had suffered a lot outside in the wind and rain.

Ever since, his wife was even more attentive, taking care of Er Shuan in every possible way, cooking dumplings for him whenever she had nothing to do.

Sometimes they even joked with Er Shuan in front of Da Shuan, and they enjoyed it.

This woman seems to be born to understand the heart of a man, she has accumulated a lot of money, and she can take it in and out freely, but she is so fascinated by Er Shuan, who has been around for a long time, that she can't extricate herself.

In the end, he even confused the primary and secondary, and developed a strong feeling of jealousy and hatred towards his own elder brother.

He is unwilling to share Aji with others, and wants to be monopolized by one person.

When the thought comes together, it is coiled in the heart like a poisonous snake.

Especially at night, when I heard the faint movement next door, the jealousy in my heart was like a steel knife piercing my heart.

Finally, the guy couldn't take it anymore.

One day, when my eldest brother went up the mountain to collect medicine by himself, he secretly followed him.

Afterwards, Sin Xin Kuang found an opportunity to sneak attack from behind, kicked the eldest brother off the cliff, and then quickly slipped back

This matter Ershuan thought it was done seamlessly.

Indeed, no one doubted him at the time, only that Da Shuan slipped and fell off the cliff and died.

Aji knew it well, and was terrified.

Ershuan swore an oath in person, saying that he did this entirely for her, in order to be able to stay with her forever, to be together in an upright manner, and not to be sneaky.

It didn't take long for the two to become close.

The villagers didn't think too much about it. After all, this is an ancient custom. Closed doors are one family, and the fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields.

But what Er Shuan never imagined was that the Skynet was restored without any omissions.

There is a man with a foreign surname in Qianjiazhuang, who is called a small shopkeeper, because he often tinkers with small gadgets and sells them back to the village.

This little shopkeeper is not a good bird, but as a foreigner, he dare not make mistakes in Qianjiazhuang, lest he will be beaten.

On his return from town that day, he had the courage to take a shortcut in order to save time.

In the end, by coincidence, I saw the scene where Er Shuan was following Da Shuan, and immediately my heart moved, and I also followed behind.

This is the so-called mantis catching the cicada, the oriole behind.

In the end, he witnessed Er Shuan's murder of Da Shuan with his own eyes.

The little shopkeeper was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, hiding behind a tree, he didn't dare to take a breath.

It wasn't until Ershuan walked for a long time that he took a detour and ran to the other side of the village and quietly returned home.

This matter, the little shopkeeper has been holding back in his heart and dare not tell anyone. After all, what does the killing of the Qian family brothers have to do with him?

He just couldn't figure it out, why did Er Shuan murder his elder brother?

It wasn't until he heard the news that Ershuan and Aji were married that he suddenly realized: this couple must have hooked up a long time ago, and they did such a wicked thing for the sake of being together in a righteous way.

Of course, guessing or guessing, the little peddler still dared not reveal this matter, for fear of causing disaster.

But the little peddler never expected that there would be such a day that the situation would change subtly.

That day he went to the town to buy some groceries, but when he was about to return to the village, he ran into Aji.

Aji said that she originally came with Er Shuan, but Er Shuan met two drinking friends and asked her to go back to the village alone, and he wanted to stay in the town and have a good drink.

So, the two went back to the village together.

Along the way, Aji smiled sweetly, with beautiful eyes looking forward, coupled with the faint fragrance of rouge, it made the little shopkeeper feel like a cat scratching his heart.

This guy is not a good bird, and knowing in his heart that this woman is not a serious woman, it is inevitable that he is a little bit delusional.

It's just that he has the heart but not the courage.

Until halfway, Aji blushed and said that he was going to urinate and told him not to go far, saying that she was afraid of being alone.

The little peddler's brain became hot, and he laughed jokingly: "Then you are not afraid that I will peep at you?"

In the end, Aji was not angry, and said with a smile: "What's so interesting? I'm not a big girl."

With just this sentence, the prehistoric power in the little peddler's heart completely exploded.

This woman is really not a serious person. Since the sky has sent such a great opportunity, why miss it?

Chapter 177 The county town is haunted by demons...

"This paper still can't contain the fire after all"

After talking about a tortuous and bizarre past, the village chief couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
