Chapter 189
It seems that Cao's family really has a secret. Cao Heihei was in the sacrificial house at the beginning of the game, and she was not given a chance to go home. This means that there may be clues in Cao Hei's home and need to find Cao Hei's family.
Seeing that the village party secretary didn't want to talk about Cao's family, Xing Ye said: "You tell me where the Cao's family is, and I will check it myself."
"This..." the village party secretary hesitated.
Cao Qian took out the kitchen knife Shun from the kitchen and slashed it on the kang.
The village party secretary immediately said: "Next to the village chief's house, the two of them have always been neighbors."
At this time Qian Daniu burped full, patted his stomach and said, "I'm full."
Xing Ye winked at Cao Qian: "Look at them, I will take Qian Daniu down to find something."
After all, he led Qian Daniu to another room. The village party secretary was much larger than Yang Xiaomao's house. There were two bedrooms, one was for the village party secretary and the other was Qin Xiaoer's room.
Xing Ye took Qian Daniu into Qin Xiaoer's room, drew the "test cabin", let Qian Daniu lie in, and got the test result that she was not poisoned.
After waiting for several tens of seconds, the test chamber disappeared. Xing Ye took Qian Daniu back to the village party secretary’s room and said to Cao Qian and Yan Hebi, “You can touch the food Qian Daniu just ate and the water he drank. It’s not poisonous.”
Qian Daniu: "???"
Wait, she recalled Xing Ye's operation, first let her eat, and then used the laboratory to confirm that she was not poisoned, and then three people left to eat? So her role is to test poison?
Qian Daniu looked at Xing Ye and the others with grief and anger. He was hungry again, picked up a piece of wotou and ate it.
Xing Ye asked as he ate, "Why do people who become sacrifices eat wild vegetables? Isn't there any good food in the village?"
"Isn't it afraid that you will run away?" The village party secretary said, "If you don't eat meat or salt, you can only give brown rice and wild vegetables.
Xing Ye and others: "..."
Too ruthless.
Yan Hebi pointed to himself and said, "What about us? Why do our guards eat so badly?"
The village party secretary said: "You have been blessed by the mountain gods, you won't die if you don't eat, so why waste that food?"
Xing Ye narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You know a lot. I will give you one last chance. If you don't tell me, I will take more extreme measures."
The village party secretary said: "You are asking."
"Good," Xing Ye asked, "Do you know that there are living corpses at night?"
The village party secretary's face stiffened and opened his mouth. Seeing Yang Xiaomao looking at him seriously, Cao Heihei didn't forget to take a kitchen knife while eating, and he couldn't help sighing, "I know, most people in the village know about it. Probably after the fourth mountain god sacrifice, black mist appeared. At first, some parents who disagreed with their children as sacrifices were beaten to death by the paper men in the village. The paper men were sacrifices that came back alive. The dead will come back at night to take revenge and kill the paper people. The black fog is rare at first, but slowly increases. At first, only the killed will become living corpses. Later, as long as they are corpses, they all become living corpses."
"Do you have no custom of cremation?" Xing Ye asked.
Since the villagers knew that Aunt Yang would become a living corpse, why didn't the village chief find someone to burn her body?
"It's useless," the village party secretary shook his head. "Mountain gods don't like cremation. Villagers must be buried in the soil when they die. No matter whether it is day or night, the body cannot be burned."
"Have you not tried it indoors?"
"I tried it, I can't burn it." The village party secretary smiled bitterly. "During the disaster year, anyone who hasn't eaten the mountain god grass can not be ignited after eating it, and the mountain god watched it. I heard that cremation was popular here fifty years ago. After the mountain god appeared, it disappeared."
After eating, Xing Ye continued to interrogate the village party secretary: "You know that carrying the spine of the guards can avoid being sacrificed, so does it mean that you have done this before or who have seen it before? Have you ever done it? Sacrifice?"
The village party secretary looked at Xing Ye for a while, and sighed, "Why is your child so smart? I'm lucky. There is a brother in the family who became a sacrifice during the third sacrifice. In the next few years, we won't have to leave our family. Wait. I married a daughter-in-law, so I can’t be a sacrifice. I had a good relationship with my brother when I was a child. When the sacrifice was made, my brother secretly followed behind and saw a sacrifice killing the guard and holding his bones. Only after we escaped, I learned it."
The third sacrifice? Xing Ye calculated the numbers and asked, "Is the village chief the one who survived the third sacrifice? Was the person you saw him?"
The village party secretary was stunned and nodded: "You guessed it all. At that time, I was young and kept hiding behind a big rock. I heard that the village chief killed someone and didn't dare to speak out. In fact, I didn't watch the sacrifice process. I only knew that after that, my brother became a sacrifice, but the village chief came back alive. From then on, I was a little afraid of him, so I didn’t agree to become a paper man. What if he got involved. And I doubt, He has not been blessed by the mountain god, and he is not a paper man turned into by the mountain god."
The guess was reasonable. Xing Ye recalled that when Aunt Yang died the day before, the village chief was actually standing in the sun, but his appearance did not seem to be manipulated. Whether it is a living person or a paper man made by a mountain god, it will be controlled, which means that the village chief is not a living person, he has turned himself into a paper man!
It seems that it is necessary to go to the village chief for a while. He seems to have done a lot of evil things. When the average player investigates here, he will basically believe that the village chief is the **oss of this story. But Xing Ye didn't think so. Everything the village chief did was to break away from destiny. He worked hard to prevent himself and the people around him from being controlled by black and white, and to have his own thinking.
However, his methods are not bright, he should be a person who does not scramble to achieve his goal.
"I entered the black fog last night. There was a living corpse in the black fog saying that he was the father of the village chief and that he knew what you did." Xing Ye said while looking at the village party secretary.
The village party secretary knocked his pipe: "Someone did the same thing as me. I also went in after discovering that the living corpses would not attack the living, and talked with the former village chief uncle. I feel that these living corpses are brains. It's not easy to use, but my uncle is a little conscious, but unfortunately it's not very bright."
It seems that the village party secretary knows limited things, so that's it. Xing Ye thought for a while and asked the last question: "Does your village have records about fifty years ago? Has anyone ever walked out of the village? Someone came in. Ever?"
This question made the village party secretary stunned. Unlike his previous calm appearance, the village party secretary was not pretended, but really didn't know.
He shook his head and said: "Fifty years ago...I was too young, I don't remember at all, no, even if I don't remember, my father and mother should have mentioned it to me? Why don't I have any impression? I haven't considered this issue. And outside the village... What does the outside of the village look like? I don't know..."
He put down his dry pipe and covered his head with a painful look: "I don't know, I don't know!"
The wife of the branch secretary hugged him, crying and said: "We have said everything we know, don't ask any more, it is not easy for our old man. My son is still a sacrifice this year, so I want to live a normal life. Why is it so difficult?"
Qian Daniu couldn't bear it, but Xing Ye gave Yan Hebi a color.
"Friends of Women" Yan Hebi stepped forward and said, "Auntie, we are also for this village. Is there anything else you want to tell us? Last night, Qin Xiaoer sneaked out. Did he go home?"
Hearing Yan Hebi’s words, the branch secretary’s wife's expression softened. She said: “Xiao Er and Si Fatty came back yesterday, and we chatted with my old man in the house for a long time, and I don’t know what to say. The old man doesn’t have many things. Say, I don’t know. But in fact, I still have an eldest daughter. She is seventeen or eighteen years older than the younger. She was also a sacrifice 21 years ago. The old man wanted to save her by this method, but It was the village chief who accompanied her up the mountain."
Yan Hebi asked: "How many times does the village chief go up the mountain as a guard?"
The branch secretary said: "I don't remember this, a lot of times, but it seems that after my eldest daughter became a sacrifice, he never went there again."
It seemed that the village party secretary and family really didn't know anything. A few people left the room to let the party secretary and husband calm down, and everyone went to Qin Xiaoer's room to discuss countermeasures.
