Chapter 198 Infinite Flow Female Supporting Character (14)
The three tall and thin men couldn't bear the pile of cold internal organs in front of the yellow-haired man, so they covered their mouths and ran to the side and started vomiting violently.
Xin Yi and Lin Yan stood at the door, neither of them intending to go in.
Xin Yi asked: "Did you find anything?"
Lin Yan wondered, "What caused the ghost to appear? Was it because Huang Mao didn't replace the incense and candles in time, violating the rules set by the village chief?"
"Also, why does this ghost like to rip out people's internal organs so much, even the dead are not spared, why is that?"
Xin Yi guessed: "Could it be that he is venting his anger because of a grudge?"
Xin Yi seemed to have thought of something as she spoke, and this sentence also reminded Lin Yan, and they both looked at the coffin.
Lin Yan narrowed his eyes, "Come to think of it, we haven't even seen the body in the coffin yet."
The two looked at each other, completely forgetting that Lu Changqing was standing next to them.
Xin Yi's eyes fell on the coffin. "If I remember correctly, generally speaking, the coffin is sealed with iron nails before burial. Why was this coffin sealed on the first day? Is it a local custom?"
"Maybe they're afraid that the things inside will come out and do evil."
After Lin Yan finished speaking, a sneer came from behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Lu Changqing. He frowned unhappily, "What are you laughing at?"
"How can a woman who has lost her husband and lives alone with her children do evil in this feudal and xenophobic village?"
Lu Changqing rolled his eyes at Lin Yan, walked to the coffin, patted the lid with his hand, and said with some gloating: "In my opinion, the people in this village did something wrong to Liu Xiangmei, and they are afraid that she will come back to life and seek revenge on them, so they just sealed the coffin."
The tall and thin man who had almost vomited came over and agreed with Lu Changqing's words: "I think what Miss Huang said makes sense. Do you remember what the man who hanged himself said when he beat the child last night?
People in the village must have bullied the child frequently. As for the child's mother, I think she must have had a very hard life. A single mother living with a child in a big city would be criticized, let alone in the village."
"If it is true as you said that the child's mother was persecuted by the villagers before her death, then we should open the coffin and examine the body to find the real cause of Liu Xiangmei's death, or evidence of her abuse by the villagers." Xin Yi said.
The tall and thin man hesitated and said, "This is not easy. The kid has been here all day. I don't know if he will agree to let us open the coffin."
"I don't think they will stop us. We will find out the truth about his mother's death. This will also be good for him."
While they were discussing, noisy footsteps and voices were heard outside the yard.
Several men with flashlights rushed in from outside the yard. When they saw the tragic death of the person on the beam, they were so scared that they all took a few steps back.
"Yes, yes, yes... She came back for revenge! It must be her!"
There was a timid one who was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, crying and shouting that the female ghost had come back for revenge.
Seeing that Lu Changqing and the others were all looking at them, the man standing in the front row turned around and kicked the frightened man, shouting: "What revenge! It's so early in the morning, your mind is not clear, what nonsense are you talking about!"
The man seemed to have a lot of weight in his words, but after he yelled at him, the man on the ground immediately shrank his head like a quail, not daring to say another word.
Lu Changqing looked at the man who was speaking. When the village chief called the villagers over to introduce them last night, she did not see this man in the crowd.
Li Wen glanced at the strangers, and was stunned when he saw Xin Yi and Lu Changqing. He looked them up and down unscrupulously, and finally smiled with satisfaction and prepared to step forward to say hello.
A young man waved the flashlight in his hand and suddenly shouted in fear: "Second brother, it seems that Dongzi is dead."
"you sure?"
The man nodded vigorously, "It's really Dongzi. There's no one else like him in the village. It must be him."
Li Wen heard this and said to the young man, "Go to Dongzi's house and see if he is home. If not, ask his parents to come over and identify him."
The young man nodded repeatedly, turned around and ran out of the yard with a flashlight.
The identity of the deceased was finally confirmed to be Li Xiaodong.
Li Xiaodong's mother and father were crying in the yard, and the village chief was pulled aside by Xin Yi and others to ask for an explanation.
"Village chief, you invited us to keep watch, but you never told us that your village was haunted."
The village chief said anxiously, "Why are you talking nonsense, girl? It's not haunted, it's... it's killed by wild animals, yes, by wolves in the mountains."
Lu Changqing sneered, "Can your wolf hang a person from the beam? Could it be that your place is blessed with outstanding people and the wild animals can become spirits?"
The village chief rolled his eyes and tried to find an excuse, "This, this, this... this... this... maybe someone secretly hung him up there."
"Then it could be a murder. Let's just call the police." Lu Changqing said as he took out his cell phone.
“No, no, no!” The village chief stretched out his hand to stop Lu Changqing from unlocking his phone screen. “There’s no need to bother the police with this matter. Our village can handle it ourselves.”
"Our colleague died inexplicably in your village, and his death was so tragic. How do you want to deal with it, Village Chief?" Lu Changqing asked.
The village chief wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "We will bury the body properly."
Lu Changqing: "Then how are we going to explain this to the company and his family when we get back?"
"Then don't go back." A male voice came from behind. Lu Changqing turned around and found it was the man from before.
When the village chief saw the visitor, his worried face immediately turned into a chrysanthemum, "Xiao Wen, when did you come back?"
Li Wen took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket, shook out a cigarette and handed it to the village chief, then respectfully offered him a light, "Second Uncle. I just came back this morning, and as soon as I got home I heard you shouting that someone had died in the ancestral hall, so I asked someone to come over to take a look."
"Luckily you're back, otherwise this would be really hard to handle."
"Don't worry, Uncle, I'm here. Go over there and rest for a while. I'm here."
The village chief patted Li Wen on the shoulder with a cigarette in his mouth, then turned and left.
Li Wen looked at Lu Changqing and the others, and said with a smile: "My second uncle is old, and he has been running all morning. I asked him to go and have a rest. If you have any questions, please tell me. I still have a say in this village."
Xin Yi looked at the tall and burly man in front of her and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
"Li Wen, the village chief is my second uncle."
Li Wen's eyes were fixed on Xin Yi, making her feel uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Chen Hao hugged Xin Yi in his arms as if to assert his sovereignty and looked at Li Wen provocatively.
Xin Yi frowned but did not break free from Chen Hao's arms. Although she was disgusted by Chen Hao, she was even more disgusted by Li Wen's greasy and lustful eyes.
Li Wen raised his eyebrows slightly and turned his gaze to Lu Changqing. "You are the night watchmen my second uncle hired from outside. We never thought we would encounter something like today. How about this, don't call the police yet, and call the police after the matter is settled. Then I will give each of you an extra red envelope of 1,000 yuan. What do you think?"
Fearing that Lu Changqing might go crazy and cause some big trouble, Xin Yi didn't even have time to discuss it with everyone and just stood up and agreed.
"Okay, it's settled. Brother Li Wen, please don't go back on your word when the time comes."
Li Wen smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, "Don't worry, sister, I will definitely keep my word."
