Chapter 199 Infinite Flow Female Supporting Character (15)
After Li Wen left, Xin Yi and others stepped outside the crowd and started the discussion again.
Chen Hao: "Why did you promise him not to call the police now?"
Xin Yi said: "Take out your cell phone and call the police and you will know."
After hearing what he heard, Chen Hao picked up his phone and dialed the police, but only heard a "beep, beep, beep" sound from the receiver. He didn't believe it and tried it twice, but still only heard a few "beep, beep, beep" sounds, and then the call was hung up.
Chen Hao held the phone in his hand, looking shocked. "What's going on?"
It didn't matter if Chen Hao died, but Xin Yi was afraid that he would cause trouble and affect her safety. After weighing the pros and cons in her mind, she reminded him, "Don't bring the order of modern society into the dungeon world. All the rules here are set by the app, and everything serves the story plot and background setting."
Chen Hao was confused by Xin Yi's words and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lu Changqing rolled his eyes. "The app wants us to find out the secrets of the village by ourselves, so we can't rely on external forces. Do you understand now?"
It's so stupid, but also so stupid that it makes people feel at ease. As long as Xin Yi and the others don't think of a way to spend the night safely, this man will definitely die tonight.
Just in case, she had to lure Xin Yi and the others out to look for clues and try to keep them from coming to the ancestral hall as much as possible.
Because the method of keeping watch safely is in this ancestral hall, and it is very simple. As long as they realize the conflict in the rules of the game and combine it with the fact that there really are ghosts, these people will probably be able to react immediately.
No one knew where the village chief had someone carry a coffin from. Huangmao's body was simply cleaned up, his internal organs were stuffed back in, his stomach was sewed up with a few stitches with fishing line, and his clothes were not even changed. He was just carried into the coffin.
"Boom bang bang-"
Nine iron nails were hammered into the coffin, and someone took a carpenter's ink line and carefully tapped the coffin a few times. Then several men worked together to lift Huangmao's coffin and placed it to the left side of Liu Xiangmei's coffin.
After finishing everything, Li Wen prepared to leave the ancestral hall with his men. When passing by Lu Changqing and his friends, he enthusiastically invited Lu Changqing and his friends to his house for breakfast, but they refused.
Now, only Lu Changqing and a few others and a few coffins in the yard were left in the ancestral hall.
The middle-aged man was the first to speak: "That man named Li Wen looks very difficult to deal with."
The tall and thin man continued, "Didn't you notice that the people in the village were quite polite to him? Especially the younger men, who seemed to be trying to please him."
Xin Yi naturally discovered it, and suggested: "Why don't we go back to the village chief's house to ask about Li Wen's situation, and then go to the mountain to see if we can find other clues."
Xin Yi's suggestion was unanimously agreed upon by everyone.
When a few people were walking towards the village chief's house, they found a white van parked in the yard of a family member.
Xin Yi returned to the village chief's house and asked about the van. She learned from the village chief that the van belonged to Li Wen.
The village chief's face was full of pride and smugness. He said with a proud look: "Xiao Wen is a promising kid. He took out a loan a few years ago to buy a van and do transportation in the city. He helps people haul goods when he has nothing to do. Even though he lives in a bungalow, he has already bought a house in the county town."
Xin Yi asked curiously, "He has already bought a house in the county town, why did he come back to live in the village?"
"This is his home, his roots, so he has to come back. Besides, his parents and wife are all in the village. If he doesn't go back, where else can he go?"
Xin Yi followed up on what the village chief had said, "Doesn't he have a child yet? From the look on Brother Li Wen's face, I thought he already had a child."
The village chief seemed to realize that he had said something wrong. His expression changed and he stuttered, "It's still... It's all because of his wife's poor pregnancy. She has been married for five years and she can't even lay an egg."
Xin Yi enthusiastically suggested, "You can go to the hospital for a checkup. My cousin has been married for five years and has not gotten pregnant. At first, everyone in the family thought it was her problem, but after a checkup at the hospital, they found that it was my cousin's husband's problem. After taking medicine for two years, my cousin got pregnant, and it turned out to be a son."
The village chief immediately lost his face: "How can the inability to have children be the fault of the master? It's just like planting crops in the field. If the harvest is poor, it must be the problem with the ground. How can there be problems with the seedlings?"
Xin Yi rolled her eyes in her heart, but said, "Village Chief, what you said makes sense."
The village chief lectured him, "I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, so how can what I say be unreasonable? In my opinion, your cousin's husband is probably being cuckolded. If you have any conscience, tell your cousin's husband to take his son to the hospital for an examination to see if he is your biological son."
"Yes, yes, village chief, you are right. When I get back, I will call my cousin's husband and tell him about this situation."
Xin Yi changed the subject and said, "By the way, Village Chief, we plan to go wandering around the mountains today. Do you have any places with better scenery?"
The village chief looked at Xin Yi warily, "What are you doing in the mountains?"
Xin Yi smiled frankly, "We are usually in the city and don't have much time to go hiking. We must seize this rare opportunity to go hiking. What's more, the scenery in our village is so beautiful, it would be a pity not to go up and take a look."
The village chief hesitated for a moment, then stood in the yard and pointed in a direction, saying, "You can go up the mountain, but don't go to the brick kiln on the hill over there."
Xin Yi asked curiously: "Why?"
The village chief didn't explain much, "Don't ask so many questions, just don't go there. The road over there is not easy to walk on, I'm doing this for your own good."
Xin Yi nodded in agreement, thanked the village chief, then gave a wink to Lu Changqing and the others, and they all went upstairs together.
After closing the door, Chen Hao was the first to speak: "There must be something wrong with the brick kiln."
Xin Yi thought to herself what nonsense! Anyone with a brain would know that there must be something wrong with that place, but the question was what was hidden inside.
Based on the actual situation in the village, Xin Yi boldly guessed, "Could it be a place like the baby abandoned tower?"
Lu Changqing's expression froze, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at Xin Yi. It should be said that she is worthy of being the heroine, her intuition is extraordinary.
However, the middle-aged man shook his head and denied it, "It shouldn't be the case. Don't forget that there are no other children in this village except Wang Anping. Even if they value boys over girls, they don't even have a baby. Logically speaking, they shouldn't throw away a girl."
"Then what else could it be? It can't be like what some novels describe, where the old man who can't work at home is thrown into the mountains to fend for himself, right?"
Hearing Xin Yi say this, Lu Changqing felt relieved. Very good, the other party's thinking was obviously led astray by the middle-aged man.
Xin Yi looked at Lu Changqing, who had been silent, and asked, "What do you think?"
Lu Changqing shook his head like a rattle, "I don't understand. I'll just listen to you. I'll listen to whatever you say."
Xin Yi felt a little annoyed when she saw Lu Changqing acting like a fool.
For some reason, she always felt that this person must know something, but he just didn't say it, which was really infuriating.
