Merchant of the Underworld

I'm a little nervous, and looking at Niu Dazhuang's attitude, it seems that I can cure their illness with just a poke.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Maybe if the result is not satisfactory, these crazy guys will kill me!

So I felt it was necessary to pour cold water on him, at least let him understand the current situation, so I said: "Actually, I came to Baisha Village to save people. Of course, I didn't save the villagers, but to save my brother. …”

"Tell the truth! I came to Baisha Village to look for clues because I was helpless about his illness."

Niu Dazhuang chuckled, with a look of disbelief on his face: "I understand, I know you are an expert, and the secret must not be leaked! If you need anything, just tell me."

I really want to cry without tears. It seems that Niu Dazhuang believes that I can solve this matter.

At this moment, it is useless to say more. The key is to find out the origin of this evil object first.

When I was listening to Niu Dazhuang's story just now, I was already thinking about it. I felt that we were probably looking in the wrong direction.

Perhaps the yin objects are not those dead skeletons, nor are they clay jars. After all, the skeletons have been burned and the jars have been sunk to the bottom of the lake. Even if they are yin objects, their effects should be greatly reduced and they cannot become more powerful.

Therefore, there is only one explanation now, and that is that there is something else about the vagina!

I asked Niu Dazhuang, what do you think is the most suspicious thing dug out? After all, I have not personally participated in the land reclamation, so I naturally don’t know this point.

Niu Dazhuang thought for a moment and then said: "Besides the clay pot, there is also the kneecap inside the clay pot. After all, the villagers' symptoms are all manifested on the knees..."

I slapped my forehead, yes, I didn't react to such an obvious thing. It really insulted the name of a fetish dealer.

I immediately asked Niu Dazhuang, where is the kneecap now?

"Throw it away." Niu Dazhuang said without hesitation.

"Throw it away?" I widened my eyes: "Are you kidding me, brother? Did you throw away the kneecap?"

Niu Dazhuang sighed: "Didn't I feel that my kneecap was unlucky at that time? Why, that thing is very important? It's okay. I'll just ask the villagers to find it. Let's go now."

I quickly stopped Niu Dazhuang and said: "No, time is urgent now. I don't have time to find the kneecap with you. In this way, the troops will be divided into two groups and go all the way to find the kneecap. Another group of people will be sent with me to find the clay pot. Fish out the clay pot. Come out and we will be fine."

Niu Dazhuang said yes, and then he went to make arrangements.

I woke up Li Mazi and asked him how he felt now. Looking at Li Mazi's expression, I knew that the situation was not optimistic, but there was nothing I could do. I could only let Li Mazi lie down and have someone look after him carefully. Let's find the kneecap and the clay pot first.

Niu Dazhuang has a high prestige in Baisha Village, and it didn't take long for the arrangements to be made. I also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately led by Niu Dazhuang, we went to the river to find the sunken clay pot.

Although Baisha Village is remote, the scenery is very good, with willows lingering, the breeze blowing, and the air always as fresh as if it had just rained. The temperature is neither cold nor hot, the mountains in the distance are covered with green, and a lake nearby reflects the mountains. The scene is very pleasing to the eye.

If this kind of thing doesn't happen, I would even consider building a villa here, and after I wash my hands in the golden basin, I can enjoy my old age here.

Niu Dazhuang brought several good people from the village, most of whom were women. Now the men are all paralyzed at home and cannot come at all. Niu Dazhuang came here on crutches.

But when I came to the lake, I was dumbfounded. The lake gave off a stench, and there was a layer of black duckweed floating on the surface, which was in sharp contrast with the surrounding scenery.

I frowned and found some white things reflecting light under the black duckweed. I poked it with a stick, and immediately a lot of dead fish tumbled out from underneath. Their whole bodies were rotten, and it was very disgusting.

It was so densely packed that I didn’t know how many fish had died in the river.

Suddenly an aunt ran out from the crowd, collapsed on the ground and started crying. Niu Dazhuang sighed helplessly, asked a few women to help the aunt up, and told him that when the matter was over, the village would give him some compensation.

It turns out that the aunt is the contractor of this pond. Now that all the fish in the pond are dead, the aunt is naturally distressed.

I asked my aunt how these fish died, and she said it must be because of the clay pot, which sank in this pond.

After ruling out the possibility of man-made poisoning, I began to re-examine the pot.

If the kneecap is a feminine object, why does throwing a clay pot into the lake cause such a big reaction?

Could it be that clay pots and kneecaps are both femininity?

It's impossible. Feminine objects usually only come together in pairs, such as a pair of embroidered shoes, a long sword and its scabbard.

I have never heard that clay pots and kneecaps are connected together.

There are only two possibilities now. The first is that the clay pot and the kneecap have indeed become a pair of paired femininities for some reason.

The other is that the kneecaps were also thrown into the lake.

So I asked Niu Dazhuang if he was sure he had thrown the kneecap where he was and not into the lake?

Niu Dazhuang shook his head violently: "I promise, I never threw anything into the pond. At that time, all my energy was focused on the clay pot, and I didn't care about the kneecap, so I just threw it aside."

I looked at the pond thoughtfully, my eyes scanning the quiet lake surface. After watching for a while, I turned to Niu Dazhuang and said, "Okay, let those who are looking for the kneecap come back! They can't find it..."

Niu was greatly shocked and asked me quickly what was going on?

I didn't say anything, I just borrowed a fishing rod from the villagers, put the fishing line as long as possible, and threw it hard on the lake. The body of a dog covered in black duckweed was fished out.

"Rhubarb? Why did Rhubarb die inside?" When a young girl saw the dog, she burst into tears and rushed forward, as if she wanted to hug the dog's body.

I quickly stepped forward to stop the girl and said, "Don't come close, this dog is not dead yet."

"Not dead yet? How is that possible?" Everyone was confused.

Indeed, this dog was exuding a stench all over its body, its mouth was open, and all the hair on its body was falling off. It looked very scary.

I said it wasn't dead because there was something in its belly!

I clearly saw the dead dog's belly rising and falling, as if... it was breathing.

I asked everyone to retreat, and at the same time lit a circle of fire around the dead dog. After confirming that the fire had completely surrounded the dead dog, I picked up a stone from the ground and threw it on the dead dog's belly.

Maybe there was bloating in the dead dog's stomach. The moment the stone was thrown, the dog's stomach exploded and juices flew everywhere.

I stared at the dead dog's belly carefully without blinking.

The belly of the dead dog has been split open. From my angle, I can clearly see the organs in its belly.

And when I saw it like this, I immediately started to retching.

The internal organs in the dead dog's stomach were actually covered with dense layers of translucent blisters, which were similar to the blisters on Li Mazi's legs. Inside was reddish-brown blood, and there were small insects squirming in the blood.

I took a deep breath, really frightened by this scene. Before, I simply thought that those small translucent blisters would only grow on the skin. Who would have thought that they could penetrate into the human body and grow on the internal organs.

I can imagine that when Li Mazi's condition continues to worsen and all these blisters grow on his internal organs, will Li Mazi die of pain?

Perhaps due to the high temperature, the blisters slowly burst open, and countless small insects came out, crawling up the fire like earthworms, making crackling sounds.

I was a little allergic to this dense sound, so I simply turned up the fire and even the dog was burned.

Everyone was still a little shocked and looked at me with burning eyes.

I know what they are thinking. They are probably worried that those blisters will grow into their men's bodies, right?

I quickly comforted me: "Don't be nervous, everyone. The patients in the village are not that serious yet. The germs are on the knees for the time being and have not entered the body..."

After hearing what I said, everyone was relieved, but worry and fear were still unavoidable.

Niu Dazhuang said let's not be idle, it's more important to fish out the clay pot first.

I said to Niu Dazhuang: "There is no need for so many people. Too many people will be troublesome. Just let them all go! It's just you and me, it should be fine."

Niu Dazhuang looked at me a little embarrassed: "But... I can't row a boat, so the clay pot was thrown into the middle of the lake."

I smiled and said, "It's okay, you don't have to worry about this. I just know how to row. If there are too many people, I worry about disturbing that thing."

Niu Dazhuang nodded and gave instructions, and the peasant women hurried home.

They didn't want to stay here for a long time. Although they loved the excitement, a woman would feel frightened when this kind of thing really happened.

Niu Dazhuang said: "I will get the boat now and take you to the center of the lake. There are too many fish fry here, and they all died overnight. If you are not good at rowing, you may capsize after just a few meters."

I smiled and said that there was no need to find a boat or fish for a clay pot, I had already thought of a way to deal with this evil thing.

Niu Dazhuang was taken aback and stared at me in surprise: "What can you do? Tell me quickly."
