Fantasy Farm

Under the stern gaze of the police, Lu Qingjiu brought a few stools from the house and some snacks for them to sit and rest while waiting for the police to send professional personnel and equipment over.

"When did you come back here?" The little policeman sat down, but the old policeman didn't move, looking at Lu Qingjiu still with some suspicion.

"I just came back a few days ago." Lu Qingjiu said, "I used to work in City A."

"What are you doing here?" The old policeman looked Lu Sake up and down.

"This is my hometown." Lu Qingjiu said, "I'm tired from work, so I just want to go back to my hometown to farm."

The old policeman asked about the identities of Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun again, and after getting the answer, he didn't speak any more, but focused his attention on the well, as if he was thinking about something, his expression became more and more serious.

Yin Xunkan was terrified, and said to Lu Qingjiu, "This policeman remembered something, why is his expression so scary..."

Lu Qingjiu shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

Neighbor Uncle Li also heard the sirens, and came over to ask what happened with concern. Lu Qingjiu told him that something seemed to have fallen into his well, so he called the police to tell neighbor Uncle Li not to worry.

"Oh, the well in your house." Uncle Li said, "It's very evil."

"How to say?" The little policeman next to him heard Uncle Li's words.

"When Sake was not at home, there was often the sound of something falling into the well. At first we thought it was a person, and we went in to check, but found that there was nothing in the well... After a long time, we didn't care about it anymore. " Uncle Li seemed to feel that the policeman's expression was not right, so he whispered, "Could it be that you found something inside?"

"Not sure yet." The little policeman waved his hand, signaling Uncle Li not to join in the fun, "Hurry up and go back."

"It's okay, Uncle Li, you can go back first." Lu Qingjiu also said.

Uncle Li turned around and went back.

Lu Qingjiu and the little policeman looked at each other. Unsurprisingly, he saw a trace of panic in the little policeman's eyes. Obviously, this young man hadn't been a policeman for too long, so he wasn't calm enough to encounter such a thing.

The old policeman was much calmer, and he was very calm throughout the whole process. He didn't leave the well until the people sent by the bureau came to support him.

At this time, it was almost twelve o'clock in the morning, and the whole village fell into a deep sleep, except for the noisy chirping of insects in the grass.

The new police brought professional equipment and personnel, and then prepared to go down to salvage.

Yin Xun was dozing off drowsily at first, but when the person who went down the well said "there is a dead body", he shivered and woke up instantly.

"My god!" Yin Xun looked towards the wellhead in horror, "There is really a corpse?!" He thought it was some kind of dead animal at most.

The atmosphere in the crowd became tense, and the people on the well dragged the rope vigorously, and finally pulled up the corpse in the well.Because it had been soaked in water for too long, the flesh on the corpse had almost completely rotted away, leaving only white bones with thick aquatic plants attached to them, which looked like black hair at first glance.

It was the first time for Yin Xun and Lu Qingjiu to see a dead body. They both covered their mouths and noses and took a few steps back, but Bai Yuehu didn't change much, and continued to knock on his melon seeds with a cold expression. Compared with the nervousness of other people It was simply out of place.

"It's a female corpse." The police present briefly checked the condition of the corpse, and said, "It's been dead for at least a year, and the specific situation has to be taken back for detailed inspection."

"Do you remember what happened last year?" The old policeman who came before suddenly turned around and asked the colleague next to him a question.

"You mean?" the man asked, "No way, why did the body get thrown here?"

"It's possible." The old policeman turned his head to look at Lu Qingjiu, "How long has it been since you came back?"

"Several years." Lu Qingjiu replied honestly, "Two or three years, this house has been abandoned."

The old policeman nodded: "Okay, you guys go to bed first, we still have to investigate the scene, you come to the police station tomorrow to make a record."

Lu Qingjiu nodded.

Regarding this corpse, the police seem to have a clue, and they ruled out Lu Qingjiu as the first suspect. After all, judging from the decay of the corpse, this person has been dead for at least a year, and according to Lu Qingjiu's The claim is that he never came back.Of course, these things need to be further verified. The most important thing at present is to find out the identity information of the corpse.

Although the police told them to go back to sleep, Yin Xun said that he didn't want to go back and insisted on spending the night with Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu looked at him suspiciously: "You can't be afraid of ghosts, are you?"

"Hehe, how can I be afraid of ghosts." Yin Xun said, "I, Yin Xun, have never been afraid of anything since I was so old!"

Lu Qingjiu: "...Since you are not afraid, can you give me some of the quilt?"

Yin Xun: "I don't! My back is cold!"

Lu Qingjiu: "..."

In the end, he gave up on grabbing the quilt with Yin Xun, and silently went to clean the bed again.

Lu Qingjiu didn't sleep well that night. He kept thinking about the appearance of the dead body, which caused him to wake up listless the next day. He went to the police station with the police to make a statement and came back yawning all the time.

The backyard was surrounded by the police, saying it was to protect the scene. Although the scene was not of much value in terms of time, after all, too much time had passed, and most of the evidence should have been destroyed.

A few days later, the police removed the protection from the scene, and Lu Qingjiu also found time to go to the police station to make a statement.

After returning from the police station, Lu Qingjiu went to the neighbor's house and asked Li Xiaoyu to get some pig grass for the pigs at home. Li Xiaoyu went happily, while his father curiously asked about the situation in the Lu family's backyard.

"Is there really a corpse?" Uncle Li was smoking a cigarette, and he was almost frightened when he heard this. "Then the voice we heard during that time..."

Lu Qingjiu laughed dryly, thinking that it's better not to study some things carefully, anyway, the more you think about it, the more you think about it.

Aunt Li also said: "Then you have to pay attention in the future, if there is anything else, remember to invite a witch to come, ouch, what a crime."

Lu Qingjiu nodded, indicating that he understood.

When he came back from the police station, he bought a few pieces of fresh beef and spices from the nearby market, and prepared to marinate them for normal eating.As for lunch, we can only make do with it. Lu Qingjiu cut some diced beef, chopped it and sautéed it until fragrant. Then he added carrots, onions, peas and corn. After the fire was over, he put the ingredients on the leftover rice and steamed it directly , The steamed rice can be eaten directly as a dish.

When he was cooking, Bai Yuehu was watching and occasionally helping him.

After the rice was steamed, Lu Qingjiu took out the pot and divided it into three parts, then poured soy sauce on it and stirred evenly, and then it was ready to eat.

Vegetables and meat rice are evenly blended together, and the mouth is full of fragrance. It is simple and filling, and the three of them eat very happily.

"After the sake, don't forget to water the vegetables in the field." Yin Xun mumbled, "This kind of seed has just been planted, so water is indispensable."

"I'll go." Bai Yuehu said.

"No need." Lu Qingjiu wanted to decline.

"I'll go." Unexpectedly, Bai Yuehu's attitude was very firm, "You can braise the beef at home."

Lu Qingjiu originally felt that it was embarrassing for Bai Yuehu to do such a rough job, but after thinking about it carefully, Bai Yuehu is not a human being, and maybe it would be easier if he had his own way of doing the job, so he didn't say anything, and nodded in agreement. his request.

After a simple nap, Lu Qingjiu called the telecommunications company and asked them to continue the network cable and TV signal. The telecommunications company said that they would send someone over the next day.

Just after making the phone call, Li Xiaoyu, who went out to hunt pigweed, came back. Lu Qingjiu went with him to feed Xiao Hei and Xiao Hua. When Xiao Hua saw Lu Qingjiu, she hummed happily twice as if to express her gratitude.Li Xiaoyu was chatting with Xiao Hua Sui Sui next to the pigsty, reaching out to touch Xiao Hei's short fluff from time to time, this fluff will become thorny in the future, but fortunately it is still fluffy, like a cute kiwi.

Xiaohua proudly refused to be touched by Li Xiaoyu, but her younger sister, Xiao Hei, was not reserved at all, she was touched by Li Xiaoyu so much that her pink and tender belly was exposed. Seeing that Li Xiaoyu was having fun, Lu Qingjiu decided to Go do your own thing first, he still has a lot of work to do.

Back in the house, Lu Qingjiu cut the beef he bought in the morning into large pieces and washed it clean, then put the beef in a pot under cold water over high heat to filter out the blood from the beef, then put the blanched beef and the spices wrapped in gauze into the pressure cooker Here, even if it is done.This method is relatively simple, but the taste is not bad. Lu Qingjiu also conveniently put some chicken tendon and the like into it to cook together. When he is free at night, these braised mei can replace melon seeds as a snack.

After returning to his hometown for several days, Lu Qingjiu has gotten used to the slow pace of life here.Don't worry about anything, it will be done anyway.

Bai Yuehu came back after watering the vegetables in the field with some dirt on his body, Lu Qingjiu asked him to take off his clothes and wash them together, but Bai Yuehu hesitated when he heard this.

"Or do you have any spells to wash clothes?" Lu Qingjiu looked at Bai Yuehu expectantly, "Do you have any?"

Bai Yuehu: "...Yes, yes."

Lu Qingjiu said: "Really?!"

Facing Lu Qingjiu's eyes full of stars, Bai Yuehu hesitated a little, and said: "But there is a sequelae."

"What sequelae?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

"It's easy to get hungry after using up spells." Bai Yuehu said, "Trouble."

Lu Qingjiu: "Well...then I'll wash it." He originally wanted to say that he would eat when he was hungry, but somehow he remembered the scene of Bai Yuehu swallowing that huge gecko that night, and suddenly felt that he should not expect much. Bai Yuehu was fed with just one meal.

Lu Qingjiu drove Bai Yuehu to take a shower, and took his dirty clothes to the front yard to start washing.While washing, he planned to go to the town to buy a washing machine in a few days, otherwise washing clothes would be a waste of time.

Bai Yuehu came out after taking a shower, changed his clothes, and sat quietly by the side watching Lu Qingjiu work.He doesn't seem to be very active, and he looks lazy all day long. If it is not necessary, he doesn't even bother to say superfluous words. At this moment, he half-closes his eyes, as if he is about to fall asleep.

The stewed beef in the room was cooked, exuding a tempting aroma, Bai Yuehu moved his nose and looked into the room.

Lu Qingjiu felt that he was like a gluttonous child, so he laughed and said, "It's stewed beef, it's not ready yet, you can eat it at night, and the melon seeds that Yin Xun brought haven't been finished yet, do you want to get them?" Want to satisfy your hunger?"

Bai Yuehu said: "I don't want to go."

Lu Qingjiu said: "What?"

Bai Yuehu: "Too lazy to go..."

He made his laziness so straightforward, but it made Lu Qingjiu laugh dumbfounded, he said: "Okay, then you sit down for a while, the day after tomorrow I go to the market, I will buy some other snacks, and buy a few little chickens... The yard is empty."

Bai Yuehu said: "You decide." He lay on the chair, half closed his eyes again, the warm sunlight was projected on his cheeks, looking from Lu Qingjiu's angle, he saw his pupils showing a glare. It was an extremely beautiful golden color, and when Lu Qingjiu wanted to take a closer look, Bai Yuehu had already closed his eyes.

Lu Qingjiu finished drying his clothes, then suddenly remembered something, turned around and went to the pigsty, but actually saw that little guy Li Xiaoyu fell asleep with the two piggies, he climbed in from the fence, left hand Holding Xiaohua in his right hand and hugging Xiaohei, one person and two pigs slept happily.

Lu Qingjiu glanced at Xiaohua Xiaohei, then at the little white pig next to him, and always felt that something was wrong. After careful study, he found that the pigpen of Xiaohua and Xiaozhu was exceptionally clean. The straw seemed to be newly replaced, and there was no peculiar smell , But even so, you can't sleep in a pigsty.

Lu Qingjiu shouted: "Li Xiaoyu, Li Xiaoyu!"

The child was woken up by Lu Qingjiu, and after opening his eyes in a daze, he rubbed Xiaohua's head in his arms, and said, "Brother Lu..."

Xiaohua groaned when she was rubbed by Li Xiaoyu, and buried her face in the child's arms.

"Why did you fall asleep inside!" Lu Qingjiu said, "This is a pigsty..."

"Oh, I was telling Xiaohua and Xiaohei a story, and I accidentally fell asleep." Li Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly sat up, trying to climb out of the pigsty. Xiaohua and Xiaohei also woke up because of this, humming Moaning and expressing dissatisfaction with Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu said: "If you want to sleep, you can't sleep here, be good, come out quickly."

He stepped into the pigsty, carried Li Xiaoyu out, wiped the straw off his body, "Let's go home and sleep."

Li Xiaoyu leaned his chin on Lu Qingjiu's shoulder without saying a word, but quietly blinked at the two little pigs.

Lu Qingjiu didn't notice his small movements at all.

After sending Li Xiaoyu home, Lu Qingjiu rolled up his sleeves and went back to his pigsty, and said to Xiao Hei Xiao Hua, "Don't play around with other people's children every day, they haven't finished their homework yet, you are not two You've been a pig for three days, why don't you know anything at all, can you do something serious?"

Xiaohua: "..."

Xiao Hei: "..."

"Don't pretend you don't understand." Lu Qingjiu knew that his pigs were smart, seeing them staring at him innocently with Xiaoyuan's eyes, he said angrily, "Why did you abduct the child into the pigsty? Next time Let me see it again, and I'll—"

Xiao Hua: "Hmph." What do you want?

Lu Qingjiu, who behaved like a parent, spoke sternly: "I won't let him beat pigweed for you."

As soon as these words came out, the air was silent for a moment, Xiao Hei sobbed aggrievedly, and Xiao Hua pointed her butt at Lu Qingjiu angrily, Lu Qingjiu: "..." He knows that his pig is smart, but this kind of person who is bullying the kindergarten children What happened to the weird illusion.

Lu Qingjiu told his pig a few more times, to the effect that he should not play foolishly with the children every day, but should do something educational. Just say it casually.

After educating his pigs, Lu Qingjiu went back to the house, Bai Yuehu was still sitting in the yard sleeping, Yin Xun also came here at some point, sitting in the shade of a tree in the front yard, with a bag of green Plum.When he saw Lu Qingjiu coming, he grabbed one and threw it to Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu caught it, wiped it and gnawed: "You grow it at home?"

"No, the neighbor's is familiar and gave me a lot, and I'll bring you a bag too." Yin Xun said, "Is it alright?"

"Well, what kind of fruit does your family grow?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

"Cherry." Yin Xundao, "but I haven't taken care of it, it's so sour that I don't even want to eat it."

"Take it and sell it." Lu Qingjiu said.

"Too lazy to go, and not much." Yin Xun said.

The price of cherries here is quite expensive, but there is no market, because it is too expensive, not many people buy it, and his cherries are very sour, so no one buys them, so he is too lazy to bother .

"Pick it off, and I'll make cherry sauce." Lu Qingjiu said, "In summer, you can drink it in water."

Yin Xun laughed: "That's great." Don't look at the sour cherries, but it has a unique flavor after being made into sauce, especially in summer when it's used for flushing and then chilled. Drinking a glass in the hot summer is not to mention how beautiful up.

Lu Qingjiu asked Yin Xun to wash the plums, and went to look at the stewed beef himself, Yin Xun nodded.

The beef was almost stewed. Lu Qingjiu tasted it to make sure that it was fully flavored. He planned to make beef noodles to eat at night.

While he was making beef, Lu Qingjiu's phone rang. He looked at the strange number on the screen and pressed the connect button.

"Hello, is this Lu Qingjiu?" the person on the other end of the phone asked.

Lu Qingjiu recognized this person's voice, it was the policeman who came here that night.

"It's me, what's the matter?" Lu Qingjiu asked.

"Let me tell you, the identity of the corpse has been found out. It's called Fu Ziying. Do you know this person?" the policeman asked.

"I don't know." Lu Qingjiu said, "I've never heard of this name."

"Okay." The policeman seemed a little disappointed.

"Does the murderer have any clues?" Lu Qingjiu asked with some doubts.

The policeman hesitated for a moment: "Think about it carefully and see if there is anything else you have missed. This matter should not have been told to you..."

Lu Qingjiu listened quietly.

"In fact, about half a year ago, someone kept calling the police station to report that someone had died in Shuifu Village." The policeman said, "The beating continued for a week. At that time, we thought it was a prank because no body was found."

Lu Qingjiu was a little confused: "Then, does the reporter have something to do with the murderer?"

"... that's the problem," said the policeman.

Lu Qingjiu said, "What's the problem?"

The police said: "The person who reported the case claimed to be Fu Ziying..."

When Lu Qingjiu heard this, goosebumps appeared on his arms: "No way?"

"At that time we couldn't see the phone number that reported the case, but the recording was still there. We asked Fu Ziying's family members about the recording and confirmed that it was her voice." The policeman said in a low voice, "But the forensic doctor is very sure that the corpse Been dead for a year."

Lu Qingjiu: "...Could it not be Fu Ziying's body?"

"No, the DNA is also matched." The policeman said.

Lu Qingjiu was horrified: "So the dead Fu Ziying...reported the crime by herself?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone. Obviously, the police couldn't stand such supernatural events.

"No, then why didn't she report the crime from the beginning." After Lu Qingjiu recovered, he felt a little strange, "Why did she... half a year ago?"

"There is another very important clue in the phone recording." The police said, "At that time, she said that it was a man who died, so we suspected..."

Speaking of men, Lu Qingjiu immediately remembered the scene he saw that afternoon. In front of Jingkou, there was indeed a man with his back turned to him, and he was hitting a woman's face with a stone. He said, "Can I ask, Fu Zi How did Ying die? Was she hit in the face by a stone?"

The policeman wondered, "How do you know?"

Lu Qingjiu laughed dryly: "I've been having weird nightmares all the time..."

To be honest, if it wasn't for such a supernatural event reported by the deceased, the police probably would have suspected that Lu Qingjiu had a motive for committing the crime. He said, "Then what else did you dream about?"

Lu Qingjiu said: "I dreamed that a man was wrapped in hair and dragged into the well together."

After saying this, both Lu Qingjiu and the police fell silent. After a while, Lu Qingjiu smiled wryly: "Hey, I don't think there's a man's body in the well..."

Police: "...you wait, let's come over and take a look."
