Hit ghost

Chapter 119 Eight Cave Village

"What did you say, did you find He Nian?" Since Wen Liang turned on the speakerphone, they could clearly hear Zhuo Ke Tuo Da's voice.

"Well! He suddenly appeared in front of the wooden house 10 minutes ago, and he has lost a lot of weight!" There was a sound of overturning the water basin from Zhuo Ketuoda's side, and after a while of busy voices, she urged again, "Come here now, I He didn't say anything when asked, he insisted on seeing you."

He Nian came out?How did He Nian, who was imprisoned in Zhao's house just now, escape?

Xie Jin thought about it and opened his mouth. Even though he had countless doubts in his mind, he still had to meet He Nian first to solve the doubts.

"We'll be there right away! Zhuo Ke Tuo Da, please take care of him first, he should have an injury on his knee." Xie Jin pointed towards the phone, completely forgetting that in a sense, the girl is He Nian's unrelated family member.

Hastily hung up the phone, and after making sure that the corpses of the old couple would not come out again, the three of them ran directly along the dirt road to the wooden house where Zhuo Ketuoda was.

Badong Village has an octagonal layout. If you want to get there in the most effective and fast way while avoiding people's eyes and ears, the best way is to go around the edge of the village along the mountain road that seldom passes by.

This undoubtedly wasted a lot of time. When they ran to Zhuo Ketuoda's wooden house, they almost wasted more than 40 minutes.

Xie Jin took out Zhuo Ketuoda's bracelet from his arms. He used a piece of cloth to wrap the silver bell together to avoid making a sound when he was in action at Zhao's house. At least this way, he would not make a very obvious sound when running.

Holding up the bracelet, he shook it towards the direction of the wooden building, and the door was opened after a while, and Zhuo Ketuoda came towards them.

"What about He Nian! How is he?" Xie Jin hurriedly asked through the fence without waiting for the girl to open the bamboo door, "What happened just now, why did he come back suddenly, I am obviously at Zhao's house..."

"Come in first." Zhuo Ketuoda turned sideways to let them in. She looked around cautiously, and after finding nothing unusual, she locked the bamboo door from the inside. She hooked her hands at the three of them, "Come with me, he's upstairs. .”

The short journey from the yard to the upstairs was silent, only the "creak" sound of them stepping on the wooden floor and the "da da da" of Zhuo Ketuoda's trot, which was dull and suffocating.

Zhuo Ketuoda ran ahead, and she led the three of them to a room at the corner of the second floor of the wooden building. There was a thick curtain hanging there, which seemed to be a dark room like Grandma Yang's room.

"He is here. He didn't eat or drink when he came back just now. He even refused to answer the questions I asked, but he kept gesturing to see you."

Pulling back the curtain, Zhuo Ketuoda let them in first, "This is not a place to sleep, you are all too tall, and you will bow your head for a while..."

A dull sound came from the front, Zhuo Ketuoda swallowed the second half of the sentence, only to hear a gentle voice from the front, "It's okay, I don't hurt."

Ji Duan squeezed to the side. This room is not only low, but also extremely small. The three grown men are crowded here at the same time, and they will inevitably hit their heads in this small space.

This house really doesn't look like it's used for living. The narrow and long space is full of sundries. It seems like it's just a utility room for storing things.

Wen Liang, who was walking in front, paused. In fact, they hadn't taken a few steps after they came in. Ji Duan looked over Wen Liang's shoulder. He narrowed his eyes and found a person lying on the pile of debris.

"What do you think?"

Xie Jin recognized that figure, he was shorter than Xie Jin and Wen Liang, relatively speaking, he would be more comfortable moving in this room full of debris.He stepped over the suspected shaman props on the ground and came to where He Nian was.

It seemed to be bundles of flags, with colorful tassels hanging on the ground, while He Nian was lying there curled up, not responding to the arrival of several people.

"He fell asleep. After learning that you are coming." Zhuo Ketuoda took out a thin blanket from the box behind him. The three people in front blocked her from passing, so she could only pass the thin blanket to Xie Jin, " He doesn’t live here when he returns to the village, but today he doesn’t know what happened, if he insists on falling asleep here, no matter how I persuade him, it’s useless.”

Xie Jin covered the sleeping He Nian with a thin blanket. When he saw the bandage wrapped around He Nian's knee, he was convinced that what he saw at Zhao's house just now was true.

"How did he come back?" Xie Jin rubbed his face, got up and retreated to the back, let Wen Liang go to check further, taking advantage of this time, he asked Zhuo Ketuoda, "I heard you on the phone just now, Anian came back suddenly of?"

"Well, I don't know what's going on." Zhuo Ketuoda nodded. Seeing that the house was crowded with people, she lifted the curtain blocking the door to let the air flow in. "I was cooking downstairs at that time, and suddenly heard When there was a knock on the door, I realized Brother Anian was back."

"It's just a little strange." She looked at the direction where He Nian was, Xie Jin and Ji Duan were in front of her, which made her almost unable to see He Nian, "I used to have good hearing, so I gave you the silver bracelet as a gift." The password to contact, but just now Brother Anian appeared quietly, as if he appeared in front of the house out of thin air."

"Did he appear out of thin air?" Ji Duan moved slightly towards the door, he suddenly felt a little sullen, "It shouldn't appear out of thin air, He Nian is just an ordinary human being, he is neither a ghost nor a fairy, there should be something else Something, or someone, brought him here."

"That's right, I think it's very likely that those people brought Anian out of that room while we were taking the old couple back to the cemetery."

Xie Jin rubbed his clothes with his fingers, this possibility is enough to explain the cause and effect at the moment, but if he thinks this way, then Zhao Dong has already discovered what happened after he left the tea room?

"I think Zhao Dong should already know that I've been there." The fabric on Xie Jin's body was ruffled by him, and he looked at the faces of everyone present, "What do you think he will do next?"

"At least that guy won't sit still. Although I don't know what he wants to do, but according to Zhao Dong's previous behavior, he seems to be the one who will take the initiative to send He Nian back."

Ji Duan opened his mouth and took a deep breath. After a few words, he didn't know if it was because of the limited space in the room. He felt more and more suffocation in his chest.

"That's right, I don't think that old thief is like that kind of person." Wen Liang stood up from the ground, subconsciously straightened his back so that his head collided with the ceiling again.

With another dull sound, he squeezed out the door, clutching his head, "...Let's go out first, it's too short here."

"You haven't eaten, have you?" Zhuo Ketuoda took the lead to go outside the house by taking advantage of her size. She stood in the corridor and looked at the three men stuck in the small space.

"You guys are really... come with me, Brother Anian couldn't eat some of the food I cooked just now, even if he was awake, talk while you eat."

She took the three of them to a small square hall at the end of the corridor on the second floor, where there was a round table that could only seat three people.

But Zhuo Ketuoda ignored a problem. Originally, only she and Grandma Yang were sitting at this table. Even if He Nian came back occasionally, he could sit there, but now this small table was facing three adult men.

Ji Duan and Wen Liang alone occupied most of the space, and the rest of the space let alone a person, even Xie Jin with half his legs would be a bit awkward to get in.

"Uh, why don't you just bear with it? My house is such a big place, and no one usually comes." Zhuo Ketuoda brought the meal that she had just made not long ago to the table, and she moved a small chair to sit on Beside.

Seeing that the three of them didn't move their chopsticks, Zhuo Ketuoda urged again, "Eat, eat without delaying the sharing of information. What did you say just now... Did the Zhao family do it?"

"Nine times out of ten, I found Ah Nian in the side room of Zhao's side courtyard, but an accident happened on the way, and I couldn't rescue him by myself. I wanted to discuss countermeasures after I came out, but I didn't expect him to come back like this gone."

Xie Jin lowered his head, even though his stomach was empty, the acid secretion made him a little numb, and he didn't have the desire to move his chopsticks, "I don't know why Zhao Dong locked A Nian there, but I'm sure it wasn't What a good thing."

Even if he didn't say it clearly, Zhuo Ke Tuo Da could know this from He Nian's thinner body and ugly face than before.

"I saw a red snake there, with horns above the eyes, and scales all over the body like triangular thorns. I didn't bother to take pictures at the time, but based on our friend's experience, I speculate that the red snake should have been killed by someone. Keep it there."

"Friend? Did anyone else get killed?" Zhuo Ketuoda caught the key words in Xie Jin's words. She saw Xie Jin pause before subconsciously looking at Wen Liang.

Wen Liang didn't say anything, he pulled a red rope from his neck, grabbed the bone flute and played it softly, Qu Wan appeared behind him.

"Here, this is your friend?" Zhuo Ketuoda has a lot of experience following Grandma, but this is the first time she has seen the red-clothed ghost. She is not afraid of the anger on Qu Wan's face, but turns her head to look at him. The three asked about the situation.

"You friends, is there any connection with the red snake? Could it be that she was also attacked by a snake?" Seeing that no one answered, Zhuo Ketuoda stopped talking tactfully, and she already had the answer in her heart, "Then what does this have to do with What's the matter with Brother Anian?"

Sighing helplessly, Wen Liang was afraid that Qu Wan would run away if she made a mistake, so she had to put her away first, "Before we entered the village, Qu Wan was snatched away by Zhao Dong, and her head was soaked in by that kind of red snake." In the jar, she was used as nourishment for those snakes."

Zhuo Ke Tuo Da froze, she immediately thought of something, after a short "ah", she covered her mouth in disbelief, "Wait, that means, brother Anian and that dragon-like The snake is locked in the same yard, is it being used as nourishment for the snake?"

"That's our guess, but I don't think we'll know until he wakes up what's going on."

Wen Liang picked up the batter that had been completely cooled, and didn't care about the saltiness, gulped down half a bowl. He raised his face to look at the shocked girl, put down the bowl and said again.

"He Nian avoided us and acted alone when he knew we were going to Zhao's house. What do you think he was thinking?"
