Three-pot porridge and naan

Chapter 62 Jinjiang Literature City [Ghost in the Mountain 3] Chapter 62...

The day after the ruined temple began to raise money, people from the county yamen went up the mountain. They were an idle master and a fast catcher under the command of the county lord.

When the village chief's son went down the mountain, only one person died on the mountain, and three people died in a row when the master went up the mountain.

The master did not expect such a big case to happen. When the corpse was examined, the master's face was pale.

Now it is confirmed that Uncle Fang is not at Dahu Zhou's house in the county. The eldest son of the village chief went down the mountain to find Dahu Zhou's house. The family of Dahu Zhou said that Uncle Fang's wages had been paid and left on the night of September [-]th. .

If the house uncle left the county and returned to the village on September [-]th, he should return to the village on the night of September [-]th.

September 21st was the time when the body was discovered. Where was Uncle Fang during that period?

Even so, it is enough to conclude that more than [-]% of the first corpse may be Uncle Fang.

"Lv Orion exclaimed that day that it was Uncle Fang. The Li family of the Chen family said that it was one of the Xu family brothers who died. Now it seems that Lu Oretus has really strong eyesight."

"Lv Liehu and Uncle Fang on the mountainside often drink together. Isn't it right for him to recognize it?"

"makes sense……"

Perhaps it was because of the presence of officials from the government that the villagers dared to discuss it now.

The master from that county also said that the murderer was more likely to know Uncle Fang, and even knew when Uncle Fang would return to the village, so Wan Dong and the three foreigners were cleared of suspicion.

Village head: "The outsider appeared in the ruined temple on the night of September [-]th. Fang Lin should have disappeared at that time."

The master also said: "If Fanglin returns to the village on the night of the [-]th of September, and no one knows when he returns to the village, and he disappears after returning to the village, the villagers will think that he is still helping Zhou Dahu's family."

It is also now that there are so many people that Wandong has the opportunity to chat with the villagers.

What he inquired about was not about Uncle Fang, nor about the two brothers of the Xu family, but about the monk who guarded the temple ten years ago in the ruined temple.

According to Wan Dong's patchwork of information, it was known that the monk's surname was Lu and Lu Liehu had the same surname, but the villagers said that they were not related by blood.

People in the village are so used to calling him monk that they forgot that the monk's surname is Lu.

Many years ago, the old temple used to have more than one monk, but later he was the only one.

About ten years ago, monks suddenly started to collect incense money in the old temple. If they didn’t pay incense money, the villagers would not be allowed to enter, and passers-by would not be allowed to stay overnight.

Later, within a radius of more than ten miles, weddings, funerals, and monks all had to charge money, and if they didn't give money, they wouldn't help with affairs.

Obviously, it is reasonable to pay money to do things... It's just that this monk has intensified since he made money, collecting all kinds of money in disguise.

When mentioning this monk, most of the villagers said that he cheated people out of money too much, and finally reaped the consequences. No one went to the old temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, and the old temple became more and more dilapidated.

Then one day, thieves lived in the ruined temple. When the villagers found the ruined temple again, the monk had starved to death in the old temple for several days.

After the monk was hastily buried, the old temple became a ruined temple. Because there were occasional thieves staying overnight, no villagers came to this temple again, and it gradually fell into disrepair.

In addition, when the villagers passed by the ruined temple at night, they would still hear frightening voices. The rumors that the ruined temple was haunted by ghosts were not new, but a few years ago.

"I almost forgot one thing. Fang Lin moved to our village in the year the monk died, and the two brothers from the Xu family also moved in that year."

"I heard people say that Fanglin bought a house on the mountainside and bought a piece of land with the best geomantic omen in the village, and gave the village chief a lot of money..."

"In our village, Fanglin's family is rich, and he can go to the county to help out. Don't mention how much the people in Laomiao Village envy him."

Yan Twelve: "So Uncle Fang and the brothers from the Xu family are all foreigners?"

Villager: "It can be said that, but the place where they came from should not be far from our county. After all, the accent was not much different."

"Speaking of which, the village chief didn't want to take them in. After all, when they came, they were dressed in rags, but they didn't expect that they would get a lot of money as soon as they handed it out. That's why the village chief agreed to let them stay."

*

When the master and the policeman were living on the mountain, there were no ghosts screaming from the ruined temple in the village, and there were no murders.

Yan Twelve already understood that if the case was not solved, they might stay here for the New Year.So he and Mei Xiaobai continued to stay at the ruined temple to investigate the situation.

Compared with Yan Twelve and Xiao Bai, Wandong has lived a very carefree few days, hunting in the mountains with the elder son of the village chief, playing cuju with the youngest son of the village chief under the old locust tree in the village, Chang's family eats together.

The village chief's youngest son was replaced by Yahong, who was the same age as Xiaobai. After breakfast that day, Yahong asked Wandong whether he would go into the mountains with his elder brother or play cuju.

They went into the mountain yesterday and met Lu Orerhu, and several rabbits they met were beaten away by Lu Orerhu. Yesterday, Lu Orerhu carried three fat rabbits, grinned at them and asked Wandong if he wanted to go to his house for dinner.

Wandong knew from Ya Hong that Lu Orion's rabbits were sold for sale and never willing to eat them, so what Lu Orion said was just polite words.

Because no rabbits were caught yesterday, Yahong's brother wanted to go into the mountain again today.

After thinking about it, Wandong followed into the mountain, and Yahong, who had never been into the mountain before, also followed. Wandong smiled and said that if he came back, he would have played Cuju with him long ago.

Just after they entered the Wandong Mountain, they met Lu Orion again.

The two Yahong brothers didn't seem to find it strange at all, but Wandong felt it was strange. They also had Orion in Xuejiazhuang, and Orion usually worked every day and took a day off.

A man who was so hardworking that he dared not waste his time and dare not take a break, volunteered to guard three foreigners a few days ago in a ruined temple.

Wandong suddenly hooked his lips into a smile.

Yahong's elder brother intentionally avoided Lu Orion, and led Wandong and the others in the opposite direction, but few Orion had come to the south of the mountain before, because there was a cliff on that side.

It's just that Yahong's elder brother realized that if he stayed in the forest with Lu Liehu again today, they would return without success.

They walked a long distance without knowing it, and when they were a little distracted, they only heard strange voices coming from the woods.

Ya Hong looked at his brother and asked in horror: "Brother... what is this sound?"

He saw that his brother's face was a bit solemn, and at this moment, something in front rushed towards this place at an extremely fast speed.

Wandong reacted very quickly and pulled the two brothers aside.

They escaped this very dangerous moment.

It turned out that a black wild boar suddenly rushed out from the steep place over there. This wild boar was twice the size of an ordinary domestic pig.

"Get out of the way!" Although Wan Dongfangcai dragged Ya Hong's two brothers to escape, Ya Hong was so frightened that his legs became weak and he sat on the ground.

The wild boar quickly noticed Ya Hong who was slumped on the ground, and rushed towards him.

At this moment, there was only a "swish" sound in the forest, and a feathered arrow shot towards this place.

The arrow hit the boar in the neck.

Even if the wild boar is hit by one blow, it is impossible to fall to the ground immediately. With a roar, it runs towards the person who injured it.

Facing the wild boar that was rushing towards him, Lu Liehu fired three arrows in a row in panic. At this time, Wandong threw the dagger at the wild boar.

The wild boar, which was fatally attacked, finally fell to the ground.

Before the others could react, Wandong had already stepped forward. He drew out his dagger, and after confirming that the wild boar had died, he shouted: "This pig is dead."

The wild boar was the first to be shot by Lu Orer, and logically it belonged to Lu Orer, but after thinking about it, Lu Orer said that he carried the pig back and divided it, and asked Yahong to go back and ask the people in the village to carry it.

The wild boar is extremely strong, so every household in the village can get two catties, and the rest will be divided equally between Lu Liehu and the village chief's family.
