There are foxes

Chapter 38 The Truth ┃ A Little Scary

"Then have you seen it with your own eyes?" Zeng Wen asked.

The old man said: "No. If you see the white hair, you can still live?"

"Then what about the tourists in Peach Blossom Valley? Are there still tourists going to Peach Blossom Valley this season?"

"The Peach Blossom Valley usually has a lot of tourists in spring, but there is an underground tunnel in the valley, which seems to be some kind of tunnel dug in ancient times. Some tourists will come from the town to see it. They probably came to see the underground tunnel. What is it like? We don’t know, the government department came to take away the murdered tourists that day, and the big guys are just guessing. No one dares to go to that place now.”

Hu Sui asked: "I see a temple at the entrance of the village. What kind of temple is it? How did it become like this?"

"What kind of general temple is that? When I was young, the temple was full of incense, and people from ten miles and eight villages would come to worship. But one year, people from the relevant departments came and said that this temple was dedicated to wild gods. It was old, so the temple was destroyed for many years. It was rebuilt later, but everyone knew it was a wild god, so no one came to worship. But our village raises funds every year and invites people to do rituals. It’s a big show. More and more people have moved out to live in the past two years, and there are not many people left in the village. Our town has convenient transportation and can do business, so basically all of them have moved there.”

"Is there anything unusual in the village these two days?"

"At night, the dog still barks."

"Did anyone die in your place recently?" Li Xiaojiu, who had been silent all this time, asked.

The old man said: "Just the few tourists who had accidents, the closer ones are Haiying's mother who died at the beginning of the year. She died of illness."

"The last few months, haven't you?"

The old man shook his head: "In our rural area, if someone dies, everyone will go to help with the funeral. I haven't heard of any family."

"What about the surrounding villages?"

"I don't know that."

They came out of Mr. Wang's house and planned to go to Peach Blossom Valley to have a look. It was empty. They found the entrance of the underground tunnel and went in to have a look, but they didn't find anything unusual.

"Look at the photos given by the branch office. The crime scene is at the entrance of this underground tunnel."

There was indeed some blood there, as well as on the walls of the tunnel.

It seems that the bodies transported away by the sub-bureau were all found here.

"Everyone search around to see if there are any graves nearby," Hu Sui said.

"Just look at the new grave." Li Xiaojiu said, "White hair usually mutates within a month after death."

"This case is really weird," Zheng Song said, "don't you think it? It stands to reason that only those who die violently can become criminals under certain circumstances, but the people from the branch bureau have already investigated this With a population of several miles, there have been no random deaths in this year. If it is an ordinary death, buried in a very murderous place and becomes a white murderer, the chances are really small and pitiful. Since I came to Baiyang Town, I have been There is a particularly uncomfortable feeling, and I always feel that we are getting into the fog. Yesterday, Mei Qing made a divination, and it seemed to be an ominous divination, do you know?"

Li Xiaojiu glanced at him and said, "And then? Shall we just go back like this?"

"I didn't mean that either..."

"Since it's useless, say less."

Hu Sui followed suit to smooth things over: "Although Mei Qing's divination is the best, it may not be accurate. Let's all pay attention to it. Let's take a look first. If it really doesn't work, the worst thing is to ask someone for help."

Everyone searched for a while in Peach Blossom Valley, but they didn't find any new graves. Finally, they decided to stay overnight at Mr. Wang's house.

"What if the white hair is in the town?" Zeng Wen said, "Don't kill anyone again in the town." "

"How about that," Hu Sui said, "Peng Cheng, the three of you go back to town, and Xiaojiu and I stay."

"That's fine," Peng Cheng said, "it's just that we still don't know how many white hairs there are here. If you are not sure of winning, don't act rashly. Let's ask the people from the branch office for help. In short, safety comes first. .”

Hu Sui nodded: "Be careful too."

After Peng Cheng and the others left, Hu Sui and Li Xiaojiu walked around the village, pasting a talisman on the gates of every house. Only a few villagers came out at noon , Hu Sui was walking, suddenly looked back, Li Xiaojiu asked: "What's wrong?"

"I seem to see an acquaintance." Hu Sui said.

Li Xiaojiu frowned and looked at it, Hu Sui said, "Maybe I made a mistake."

"You are really brave." Li Xiaojiu said suddenly.

"what?"

"You," Li Xiaojiu said, "dare to stay with me alone, are you not afraid that I will feed you to that white hair?"

Hu Sui said, "Don't scare me."

Li Xiaojiu snorted coldly, and said: "Then you should obediently listen to me and give me a hand. I think you are pleasing to the eye, so I will spare your life."

Hu Sui said: "You really don't know good people. I'm afraid that if you stay with them, they won't cooperate with you. You are so pitiful all by yourself. I only know you well and know that you are kind. Who let me see you wipe your tears."

"Say it again!" Li Xiaojiu immediately turned his brows upside down, pointing at him.

Hu Sui giggled twice, and said, "The enemy is at hand, let's not start internal strife."

The white hair is also an evil thing, and it seldom comes out when the sun is shining. They stayed until it was dark. At about eight o'clock in the evening, the black dog in the yard suddenly barked, and Mr. Wang said, "Listen, listen! , the dog barked again."

Not only their dog, but the dogs in the whole village seemed to be barking, which sounded extremely scary in the dark night.Li Xiaojiu and Hu Sui brought a ladder, climbed up the wall and looked outside, only to see the pitch black.

After all, Li Xiaojiu was so courageous, he planned to go out and have a look.Hu Sui said: "One person can't do it, I'll be with you and take care of several people."

In the end, Li Xiaojiu gave him a disgusted look and said, "It will be easier for me to do things if you don't drag me back."

As soon as Li Xiaojiu went out, Mr. Wang quickly locked the gate.Hu Sui hurriedly climbed up the ladder, watched Li Xiaojiu go out, Li Xiaojiu looked up at him, took out a talisman from his pocket, fiddled with his hand, the talisman actually ignited and floated on the On the palm of his hand, it became an inextinguishable flame, and Hu Sui's jaw almost dropped when he saw it.

This Li Xiaojiu is hiding everything, what kind of magic is this!

Li Xiaojiu walked forward holding the flame, on the dark street, only the sparkle in his palm reflected his beautiful face.Hu Sui lay on the top of the wall, watched him walk around Wangjiacun once, and when he came under the wall again, he asked, "How many times do you want to walk?"

Li Xiaojiu looked up at him, didn't say a word, and continued walking.He didn't know what kind of spell he was doing. Hu Sui didn't understand, and he was afraid that Li Xiaojiu would get angry if he asked too many questions, so he got off the ladder.

Mr. Wang said: "It's so cold outside, you must have froze, go inside and have a drink of hot water."

Hu Sui entered the room shivering and said, "It's really cold here."

"This is the coldest time of the year. When you outsiders come to our place, you cry about the cold, not to mention you outsiders. Even the locals complain about the cold when they come back after going out for a few years. The village head Wang Xue's father, I have been doing business outside all year round, and when I came back this winter, it was so cold that I didn’t go out all day.”

Hu Sui's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Who are you talking about?"

Mr. Wang said: "Wang Zhenbiao at the west end of the village."

"No, whose father did you just mention?"

"Wang Xue."

"...Is their family doing business in Qiuman Mountain?"

Mr. Wang said in surprise, "How do you know?"

Hu Sui hurriedly asked: "Then he came back alone, who else?"

"And his daughter-in-law and his daughter. The three of them came back together. It is estimated that the daughter is old enough to come back to kiss her."

Hu Sui only felt his scalp tingling, quickly put down the bowl in his hand, and said, "Did you see the three of them come back with your own eyes?"

"Well, there are only so few people in our village. We can figure out who's back and who's gone out to work. The three of them came back by car, but the father and daughter didn't go out much after they came back. It's just that Wang Xue's mother occasionally goes out to the town to buy vegetables. Their family really made money outside, eating chicken, duck and fish every time. Live chicken and duck."

Mr. Wang sighed again: "But when this person has money, his temperament has changed, and he doesn't like to talk to people very much. Their family's Wang Xue used to be very sweet, but when I greeted her when I came back, she was cold. He gave me a cold look, as if he didn't see me, and didn't say a word... Hey, young man, where are you going?"

Hu Sui quickly climbed up the ladder, wanting to see where Li Xiaojiu had gone, but his heart skipped a beat because he saw a white figure appearing at the entrance of an alley that Li Xiaojiu had just walked past. Silently followed behind Li Xiaojiu.

His heart beat violently, and he quickly got down from the ladder. Mr. Wang said, "You want to go out too?"

"I... I'm worried, go out and have a look."

"You take this." Mr. Wang suddenly gave him something.

When Hu Sui saw it, it turned out to be a black donkey's hoof.

"Thank you." Hu Sui didn't know whether the black donkey's hoof would work or not, so he just put it away first, opened the gate and ran out.It was pitch black outside, he followed Li Xiaojiu's direction to catch up, and not long after, he saw a faint light, erratic.

The population of Wangjia Village is small, but the village is very large. Only the old man Wang's house is concentrated, and the others are scattered, spreading all the way to the Peach Blossom Valley.As he was walking, he suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing behind him. He always felt that someone was following behind him. He held his breath, stopped for a while, and the footsteps disappeared. He took out the black donkey's hoof from his pocket and turned around sharply turn around.

Empty, nothing.

He hurriedly quickened his pace, seeing that Li Xiaojiu had already walked near Peach Blossom Valley.

There are very few houses in this area, only a large area of ​​wilderness and mounds.And if there are white shadows behind Li Xiaojiu, the number has increased to three.Hu Sui felt weird, and didn't know whether to call Li Xiaojiu, but he was anxious to tell him what he had just discovered.

At this moment, Li Xiaojiu suddenly turned around and waved at him from afar.

The few white shadows following behind him had disappeared.

He hurried over to Li Xiaojiu.The flame in Li Xiaojiu's palm suddenly went out, and he said to him: "Look here..."

Hu Sui glanced forward, but only saw a white hair lying in the pit, his face still vaguely looked like Wang Xue's. He was shocked, and hurriedly looked back at Li Xiaojiu, only to see Li Xiaojiu push him hard. , directly pushed him into the pit.
