Female corpse

In comparison, she is much happier than Huang Yu.Like Huang Yu, she had no mother since she was a child, but besides her father, she also had Zheng's mother and grandparents.

Huang Yu not only lost her mother since she was a child, but also was haunted by nightmares since she was a child, and was betrayed by someone she liked in the end, which is really pitiful.Thinking of Huang Yu's delicate face, she felt a burst of regret.

She went downstairs and saw Huang Yu's father standing motionless in front of the coffin for an unknown how long.

She asked him for Huang Yu's mobile phone. The mobile phone was found in the tent that was washed away by the flash flood. It was already soaked in water and could not be turned on. She took the mobile phone back to the attic, handed it to Lu San and said, "Look at it, Can this phone be repaired?"

Lu San took the phone and looked it up and down, "Is this Huang Yu's phone?"

Teng Yexin nodded.

Lu San pondered for a while and said, "It's been soaked in water for too long, but the hardware shouldn't be damaged, and it should be able to turn on after drying." He found a tool to disassemble the phone, and then dried it with a hair dryer.

Luo Shiya said: "Ye Xin, did you go to the gate of the police station to find the old man? Did you see anyone?"

Teng Yexin withdrew her gaze and said, "Well, Suwen and I searched for it once, and came back without seeing anyone."

Lei Qing was shocked and said: "If you don't tell me, I'll forget it! Didn't the old man say that we will have a bloody disaster and let us leave Huangyao Town? He is really accurate! If he listened to his words and left at that time, Huang Yu would probably die. Nothing will happen."

Everyone fell silent.

It took an hour to fix it, and there was a password on the screen.

Teng Yexin handed the mobile phone to Wu Cheng, Wu Cheng thought for a while and then entered a series of numbers, and it turned on, she took the mobile phone and walked out.

Yang Suwen said: "Xinxin, where are you going so late?"

Teng Yexin said: "I'm going to return the phone to my uncle, and chat with him by the way. If I come back too late, you can go to bed first, don't wait for me." This is Huang Yu's privacy, she has no right to announce it, Besides, it wasn't a big deal, she decided not to tell them.

She found the video and went downstairs with her diary and cell phone.Huang Yu's father was no longer in front of the coffin, the light was on in the study, she knocked on the door, and a voice came from inside: "Come in."

She opened the door and went in. As the diary said, the study room is full of mahogany furniture. There is a large ink painting behind the desk. The most lively colors in the room may be those pots of green plants.

Sitting on the black leather chair behind the desk, Huang Yu's father raised his head from the photo album, "Xiaoxin, what do you need from me?"

Teng Yexin handed over the notebook, "I accidentally found this in Huang Yu's study, uncle, take a look."

He took the notebook and read it under the desk lamp.After a while, tears rolled down his cheeks, he wiped them and continued to look down, finally he slapped the table, stood up angrily, his shoulders were trembling, after a while, he calmed down, "Thank you for giving me the things, Xiaoyu I am lucky to know you as a friend."

Teng Yexin was shocked by his calm speed, "Uncle, what are you going to do?"

He sat down with only one desk lamp on in the room, and he couldn’t see his expression clearly in the darkness, “At the beginning when we got married, it was just two families working together. Her Li family supported me to run for office, and the Li family also occupied Nanchuan City with my support. With more and more market share, since Xiaoyu likes her, let her stay to attend the funeral, and I will divorce her after it is over. I have known their activities for a long time. Turning a blind eye, I never thought that she would dare to reach out to my daughter! This is absolutely intolerable, and she and her family will have to pay the price for this." His tone was unhurried, but it made people listen A piece of ice cold.

Teng Yexin said: "Uncle, when is it time to repay the injustice, Huang Yu may not want you to do this."

Huang Yu's father's face turned gloomy, "You're right, I didn't expect you to know Xiao Yu so well and see her so thoroughly. Xiao Yu still wants to protect her." He said to himself: "She has such a good intention , my poor daughter, as long as you like it, father will fulfill you and send everything to you."

Teng Yexin felt a little strange, she was silent for a while and said, "Uncle, what about the sacrifice mentioned in the notebook? And that pattern, I also saw it on Huang Yu that day."

There was a low pressure hovering in the air, and Huang Yu's father said in a low voice: "The person Xiao Yu dreamed about must be that Taoist priest! If I hadn't read her diary, I would not have known that she had been having nightmares all the time. Too remiss!"

Huang Yu's father looked far away, and he said slowly: "It seems to be a sacrifice handed down from the Tang Dynasty. You have heard of it in Huangyao Town. It is an ancient legend. According to the genealogy of the town and the old people According to oral traditions from generation to generation, it is said that more than 1000 years ago, Huangyao Town was a paradise isolated from the world.

In the sixth year of Yongwei in the Tang Dynasty, a large-scale epidemic broke out in the village. The villagers died one after another, and more and more people died of the epidemic. Later, a young Taoist priest came to the village.He told the villagers that he was the judge of the underworld, and he was reincarnated in the human world under the instructions of the king of Hades. Although he lost his magic power, he could cure the villagers' diseases. , The young Taoist priest took out a strange pill, and within a month, the disease was brought under control, and the sick villagers gradually recovered.

The villagers settled the Taoist priests in the best houses in the village, and every family came to give gifts every day to thank them.Later, many young strong men came to the village, who seemed to be subordinates of Taoist priests.He directed these people to dig a passage underground from the entrance of the village. It took two years to dig a huge catacomb and build a ancestral hall at the entrance.On the second day after the ancestral hall was built, those strong men disappeared without a trace, leaving only two people.

Not long after, the young Taoist said that the King of Hades wanted to call him back to the underworld.He said that if the villagers made a statue of him after he left and put it in the ancestral hall to worship every day, the villagers would worship in front of his statue from birth to death, and they would be buried in the catacombs after death. The person who was born with a red pattern on the nape of the neck offers her soul as a sacrifice to him, then he will protect Huangyao Town with good weather and long-term prosperity.

A few days after saying this, the Taoist priest died, and two of his subordinates became the chief priests of the village. They began to arrange the funeral ceremony of the Taoist priest and set down the rules of sacrifice in the village. This has been passed down from generation to generation. "

Huang Yu's father said that his lips were a little dry. He took a sip of tea from the thermos cup on the table and continued: "The weather and weather in the village turned out to be smooth and there were no catastrophes. Huangyao Town has always been in a peaceful corner, and it can still maintain peace in troubled times."

Teng Yexin thought, that's because Huangyao Town has a relatively high terrain and is located in the southern subtropical monsoon climate with plenty of rain. Of course, the weather will be smooth. Besides, Huangyao Town is located in a remote place, and the means of transportation are ancient. Bar!

Teng Yexin said: "Is the pattern on the back of the neck mentioned by the Taoist exactly the same as that on Huang Yu's body? Could it be that there will be a person with the same pattern in Huangyao Town every once in a while? This is unreasonable. Could it be that Huang Yao A birthmark inherited from the ancestors of the town?"

"You are right, the pattern is the same, but you have also seen that it is definitely not a birthmark. You can't use logic to analyze this matter, because it has no logic at all. When I was young, I've seen the same pattern on a baby girl and a female corpse, exactly the same as the back of Xiao Yu's neck! It disappeared after the first birthday, and reappeared after death, which is extremely weird." He seemed to think of Huang Yu, and his mood fell.

"I still have a question. Uncle, why did you say before that none of the chosen ones can escape."

Huang Yu's father clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "No one can escape if you are chosen! The female corpse I saw was a sacrifice with a red pattern on the back of her neck when she was born. It is reasonable that the sacrifice could not live to be 20 years old. In order to escape her fate, she even fled abroad, and finally died on the day before her 20th birthday, and her body was eventually returned to the town. The stories passed down by the old people in the town also proved that no one who was chosen could escape Gains and losses. In ancient times, people in Huangyao Town desperately gave birth to children. It was a glorious thing for someone in the family to be selected. It was also because of this sacrificial custom. Even if they tried their best to have children, the population of Huangyao Town was still increasing. Withered. Especially after the family planning, the population of Huangyao Town has declined rapidly, and now at least half of the town are foreign residents."

Teng Yexin talked with Huang Yu's father for a long time, and when she walked out of the study, it was almost midnight.Almost all the lights in the house were on, bright as day.

She faintly felt that Huang Yu's father seemed to be hiding something from her, and carefully avoided it. Although he was very careful, she still noticed it.She shook her head to stop her messy thoughts. Since she didn't want her to know, she couldn't figure it out by guessing, so she simply didn't bother to think about it.
