Hit ghost

Chapter 105 Eight Cave Village

"That guy..." Li Yougui swallowed the word "dumb" that came to his mouth. He saw that Wen Liang's expression didn't change, so he continued, "I just wanted to ask, and I saw him with you this morning. Why did you break up suddenly?"

"He said he had his own business to attend to, but we learned something from Zhuo Ketuoda. He Nian usually lives with them when he goes back to the village. Not only did he not go back this time, but he also acted separately from us. It was too logical, so she was worried."

Wen Liang played with the tobacco rod, not forgetting to observe the subtle expressions on Li Yougui's face.Although this man expressed his determination to work with them to deal with other power holders in Badong Village, but in the end, he was only enmity with the Zhao family, and would he reveal all the information that was not good for Badong Village?

"Li Yougui, do you know what He Nian is doing alone?" Wen Liang stared at Li Yougui's face, as if he didn't know much about it, and there was even confusion in those small eyes.

"Why do you ask me about that guy?" Li Yougui didn't understand, he scratched his face in doubt, "I don't know him well, if you ask me about the village, it's almost the same."

This was right in Wen Liang's heart, looking at Li Yougui who still didn't understand why, he asked back: "Then do you know what the Holy Child Sacrifice is?"

"Holy child sacrifice?" Li Yougui's expression became a little stiff for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal, "I haven't heard of it. Only shaman sacrifices are the most common in the village. In addition, there are rituals to invite immortals." one type……"

"Li Yougui, think it over before you talk." The smile on Wen Liang's face disappeared in the blink of an eye, and his expression sank, like a criminal policeman interrogating a prisoner, "Do you really not know about the Holy Child Sacrifice?"

The empty hall fell silent for a moment, and the three of them stared like torches, while Li Yougui, who was stared at by them, licked the corners of his lips uncomfortably, and gave an affirmative answer: "Well, I really don't know."

Wen Liang didn't speak, Xie Jin and Ji Duan also didn't speak, Li Yougui bit the bullet and held on in the strange tacit understanding of the three, "So what is that? Why did you ask me this suddenly."

"That's a kind of sacrificial ceremony we saw in the Zhao family. Zhuo Ketuoda didn't know about it, but I thought you, as a Li family member, would know." Wen Liang put the long stick of dry tobacco on the table, and crossed his knuckle fingers Together, he looked at Li Yougui.

"Zhao Dong let us see this information on purpose, there must be a purpose in it, but we really can't connect the Holy Child Sacrifice with other clues, you are now a grasshopper tied to the same rope with us, really no Hiding something from us?"

Li Yougui still lowered his head, he didn't look at the faces of any of them, he just stared at the cigarette stick that Wen Liang had just placed on the table, "No."

"Well, I thought you knew." Wen Liang shrugged, and didn't say anything more, "In that case, let's discuss how to find He Nian and get along well with the villagers, shall we?"

"..."

Half an hour later, Li Yougui frowned and listened to Wen Liang's narration. He seemed a little confused, and grabbed his oily hair that was almost stuck to his scalp, "That is to say, Zhuo Ketuoda said that only you are recognized by the villagers. Can I participate in the sacrificial ceremony of the shaman?"

"Yes, he asked us to coexist peacefully with the villagers as much as possible in the week before the ceremony, but the local villagers in Badong Village tend to reject us, and this is also the most difficult obstacle to overcome."

Xie Jin and Ji Duan sat together. He leaned forward when he spoke, but deliberately kept a certain distance from Li Yougui who was opposite him.In the conversation just now, even he, who usually has the purest thoughts, could see Li Yougui's unnaturalness.

Although no one said anything, they all knew that Li Yougui was hiding something from them.

Because they couldn't force the other party to force it, they could only look for logical loopholes in the ensuing conversation. This was a decision the three of them had come up with before Li Yougui came.

"How should I put it, although I used to call He Nian dumb before, but other than that, I really didn't do anything excessive to him, so I only have a relationship with him that I can talk to. Where did he go? I don't have any clues, but Zhao Guangsheng always takes the lead in bullying He Nian, so he should have some clues."

Li Yougui always felt that the three stares on the other side made him a little numb, and he shrunk his neck subconsciously, "Well, as for the villagers, they are not as difficult to deal with as you imagine. Incorrect ideological guidance, that’s why we exclude outsiders.”

"What are we going to do?" Ji Duan raised his eyebrows. Dealing with ordinary people is something he is more comfortable with. He just needs to talk to people and talk to the devil. If the villagers in Badong Village are really as easy to deal with as Li Yougui said, He did have a good idea.

Li Yougui's expression was distorted for a moment, and Li Yougui squeezed his eyes, "Integrate into their lives, get close to them at the most fundamental level, and use your actions to show that you have no malicious intentions. Although the death of the old man who had a relationship with you once caused a stir in the village. There was quite a disturbance, and there were rumors in the village that it was your arrival that caused the death."

The expressions of the three people on the opposite side froze at the same time. No wonder the villagers passing by acted so strangely when they were going from Zhao's house to Zhuo Ketuoda's wooden house. It turned out that it was because of the groundless rumors.

"I suspect that it was Zhao Guangsheng and Gao Quan who did it, because they had a conflict with the old man when they were in the ancestral hall that day, and after that, they went in the same direction as the old man."

Li Yougui dipped his fingers in some water, and drew a very crude map on the desktop, "The old man's home is in the northwest corner of the village, while Zhao's and Gao's are in the center of the village, guess what they are going to do with the past ?”

"Murder to silence, then put the blame on us for this murder, and then spread rumors in the village." Wen Liang leaned back, the old wooden chair made an unpleasant "creak" sound, "Then his father Zhao Dong Bringing a group of people to the door to question, indirectly confirming our identity as the murderer."

The low smile in his mouth was no longer suppressed, and Wen Liang's laughter became louder and louder, and finally his laughter echoed in the huge Li residence, "That old thief Zhao Dong has a good plan, but he has no plans. Expect the variables in the middle."

"Li Yougui, let me ask you." Wen Liang wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, took a deep breath and calmed down, "Aren't you afraid that we are murderers just like what Zhao Dong arranged? What is the purpose of you being uncharacteristically with us?" Stand in line."

"Because I want to get rid of Badong Village, I have said it from the beginning." Li Yougui's eyes were firm, as if he had an extremely strong goal from the beginning, "I want to leave here before I am completely swallowed by evil, and go see Look out at the world."

"You said your parents died when they competed with the Zhao family for the head of the five clans, didn't you want to take revenge?" Wen Liang held his chin with one hand and stared intently at Li Yougui's face.

Li Yougui didn't have any big mood swings. Even when he mentioned the death of his father and mother, he just dimmed his eyes, "I think, how could I not want to. But my father's greatest wish before his death was to let me leave Badong Village and get rid of the This fateful cursed place."

"There are some things that you city people can't understand. The most primitive desires will arouse the deepest evil thoughts in human nature. In this closed village, generation after generation of brainwashing of thinking patterns is carried out. This kind of rotten thinking will make people Badong Village is finally going to perish."

Li Yougui's face was flickering in and out of the windproof lamp, and there was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, as if he was determined after seeing a lot of things, "The farthest place I have been to is the small county town of Lipu County. I successfully left with your help, I want to go to a further place to see."

"The idea is very good." Wen Liangchao gave Li Yougui a thumbs-up affirmation, "When everything is over, you may also go to Tanjiang with us to see the beautiful metropolis. Tanjiang welcomes you."

Li Yougui gave a rare smile, lowered his eyes, and the flames of the hurricane lamp bounced on his face, "Let's talk about it after everything is over."

"You only have seven days, so do as I say, integrate into the life of the villagers in the most common way, and let most people accept you before the sacrifice."

Li Yougui glanced at the time, got up and walked towards the half-open window not far away, "It's getting late, I'll ask other people about He Nian's whereabouts, if there is any news, I will come to you at this time of the day."

His not tall body moved out of the window flexibly, and Li Yougui hid quietly in the night again and left.

The three people in front of the wooden table looked at each other, and after a long time, Ji Duan spoke first: "Li Yougui seems to know something, what is that so-called holy boy priest, and he can keep his mouth shut."

"Maybe it's a living sacrifice, using a child under the age of one." Wen Liang also had a headache, he scratched his white hair that was half loose, and sighed heavily.

"Hey, you have also heard what he said just now. Who is the source of the evil thoughts? Is the holy child sacrifice carried out on the basis of the existing shaman sacrifices at the same time, or is someone sneaking behind everyone's back? matter?"

"I guess the source is probably Zhao Dong, or Zhao's family." Ji Duan also imitated his gentle appearance and tilted his neck back, hoping that this would make his thinking clearer.

There is no answer, even if someone deliberately makes things difficult, they can only rely on these scattered clues to constantly explore the truth behind this weird and terrifying sacrifice.

"Uncle Xie, what do you think?" Ji Duan finally got a little angry. He pushed the soles of his feet on the ground, and the whole person and the chair tilted back at 45°. Is the Zhao family up to something?"

Xie Jin looked at Ji Duan's dangerous action, hesitated for a moment and still did not intervene, "Well, since the book recording the sacrifice of the holy boy came from the Zhao family, it is naturally related to them, but if the sacrifice of the holy boy really exists, we I always feel that they are not the only ones behind this."
