I become a god in another world

Chapter 165 The mystery of life and death

Chapter 165

When Uncle Kuai Liu said this, he paused and glanced at Zhao Fusheng:

"Everyone has also discussed whether to go to the Demon Suppression Division to report the case -" He patted his thigh:

"Unexpectedly, from then on, the sky never lit up again."

Kuai Liang Village fell into a long night, as if the light had abandoned the place.

"We stayed up for a long time and realized something was wrong, and we also speculated whether we encountered a ghost hitting the wall, that is, the ghost, ghost mentioned by the adults -"

Zhao Fusheng answered:

"Ghost Realm."

"Yes, yes, ghost realm." Uncle Kuai nodded:

"So a few bold children in the village prepared to go to the river to have a look. Unexpectedly, as soon as they left the village, they saw that the riverside was covered with strange red flowers overnight, almost covering the entire river bank."

"That flower——"

Zhang Chuanshi felt his scalp numb when he heard the ghost flower, and his tone was hesitant.

Uncle Kuai Liu didn't know his experience, so it was naturally difficult to understand his complicated tone at this time. Hearing this, he sighed:

"There is something wrong with that flower. When people in our village step into the flowers, they will be dizzy by the smell of the flower, and they will lose consciousness before they know it. When they wake up again, they will be back in the village."

After speaking, he solemnly said:

"So, sir, we are trapped in the village and cannot get out."

Zhao Fusheng was also surprised when he heard this:

"Has everyone tried it? No one in the village can get out?"

"Tried it."

Uncle Kuai Liu nodded:

"After the first few bold children entered the flowers and returned to the village mysteriously, we were all frightened, so we organized a group of people to leave the village to report the news, but everyone who entered the flowers was no exception, and they were all killed. Trapped in the flowers and woke up back in the village.”

He shook his head:

"You can't get out, so it's impossible for Mancai to leave the village and take a boat to Zhuangjia Village to report the news."

"this--"

Wu Shaochun couldn't help but look strange when he heard this, and subconsciously turned to look at Zhao Fusheng.

"To tell you the truth, sir, we originally thought we would be trapped and die in the village. No one knew what happened here, but we didn't expect that your sir and his party broke in tonight. To be honest, we were also surprised."

After Uncle Kuai finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and then tentatively said:

"Sir, do you think Zhuang Laoqi guessed that something happened in our village, so he deliberately told nonsense, but by mistake, he was right?"

"Are you saying that he told lies but happened to tell the truth?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

"Yes." Uncle Kuai Liu responded.

"Unlikely." Zhao Fusheng shook his head:

"The odds are too low."

Her words made the people in Kuai Liang Village look at each other.

This matter revealed an evil nature, Zhao Fusheng said:

"Zhuang Laoqi said that Kuai Man's financial report letter said this, saying that in June this year, a wave of outsiders came to the village to harvest Bai Su——"

When she said this, the faces of the people in Kuai Liang Village changed drastically. At first, Uncle Kuai Liu thought that she was telling half truths and half lies to deceive him, but now he was no longer taking any chances.

These things are the secrets of Kuai Liang Village. After the Fourth Lady Zhuang was secretly executed, everyone in the village was trapped in the village, and no one told the outside world. How did Zhao Fusheng know these inside stories?

Uncle Kuai Liu endured his uneasiness and heard Zhao Fusheng say again:

"Among these people is a foreigner who has been in love with Lady Zhuang for a long time."

"Then?"

Uncle Kuai Liu couldn't sit still and asked.

"Then it was said that a man named Kuai Huaide reported to you and exposed the affair between Mrs. Zhuang Si and others."

Zhao Fusheng glanced at Uncle Kuai Liu meaningfully and said what Zhuang Laoqi mentioned.

"..."

Uncle Kuai Liu's face suddenly became very ugly. He seemed a little confused and a little worried. After a long time, he nodded subconsciously:

"Yes...it's true...what you said is absolutely correct."

"And you didn't believe it at the time."

"I really don't believe it." Uncle Kuai Liu swallowed his saliva and said:

"I also know the character of the fourth lady. She is a younger member of my old wife's clan. After marrying into our village, she also has a docile temperament and outstanding appearance."

"She is not living a good life, and because of the grievances before marriage and the indiscretion of the fifth child, she is criticized behind her back." Liu Shuniang, who had been silent for a long time, interrupted:

"But everyone knows her character and character, and we all believe that she is definitely not such a person, so at first we thought it was the nonsense of that kid from Wilder."

When Zhao Fusheng heard this, he heard something interesting.

Her initial impression of Kuai Liang Village was that the village was very united, and the whole village was like a large clan collective with evenly distributed interests.

This can be proven by the fact that Uncle Kuai Liu mentioned paying land tax before entering the village.

But when the matter involved a private meeting between Mrs. Zhuang and others, something unexpected happened, which proved that the clan was not as united as Zhao Fusheng imagined.

She smiled and said:

"Kuai Huaide? Are you also from the same clan as you?"

Zhao Fusheng's words seemed like he was asking questions knowingly, and Wu Shaochun gave her a puzzled look.

Zhang Chuanshi's heart moved, as if he had discovered something, and he looked thoughtful.

"Have you forgotten, sir? We in Kuai Liang Village are all members of the same clan origin."

Uncle Kuai Liu said with a very good temper.

"Your clan seems to be quite united." Zhao Fusheng said calmly.

"We are a family." Kuai Liushu emphasized.

"If that's the case, why do you believe in the innocence of Lady Zhuang Si but not your own relatives?" Zhao Fusheng stared at Uncle Kuai Liu:

"Could it be that Kuai Wu and Kuai Huaide had conflicts before this?"

She went straight to the root of the problem and instantly broke the illusion of "unity and friendship" among the people in the village that Uncle Kuai Liu had tried so hard to create.

"Do not--"

Uncle Kuai Liu was obviously a little flustered when he heard this. He tried to refute at first, but when his eyes met Zhao Fusheng's, he was startled and said to himself: This gentleman looks young, but his eyes are very scary.

Her eyes seemed to have penetrating power and could see into his heart.

All the nasty things that happened in Kuai Liang Village that should not be hidden in the sun seemed to be hidden from her eyes.

Uncle Kuai Liu looked a little embarrassed and avoided Zhao Fusheng's eyes:

"Generally speaking, everyone is very nice, but even if we are as close as a family, it is inevitable that there will be dissatisfaction. Teeth and tongue are so close, and there are still fights--"

After saying that, he pursed his lips, and the panic on his face was quickly hidden, turning into a stubborn look. Zhao Fusheng knew at a glance that this old man was stubborn.

He has a high reputation in Kuai Liang Village. He speaks the truth, is smooth in dealing with others and has his own set of inherent principles.

The matter of Mrs. Zhuang Si involved a scandal in the village, and it was only because it involved many lives that she opened his mouth.

However, the conflicts and secrets among the villagers are family scandals, which involve his rule and are closely related to his authority, so it may not be easy to find out.

People like Uncle Kuai Liu are not like Zhuang Lao Qi, who can tell the truth with a little intimidation. He is an old man, and even if he doesn't want to tell, coercion and inducement may not make him tell the truth.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fusheng smiled slightly and did not pursue the question any more. Instead, he changed the subject as if nothing had happened:

"Zhuang Laoqi said that Kuai Mancai also mentioned this, saying that you had Kuai Huaide beaten up and tied him up to apologize to Madam Zhuang Si."

She wisely changed the topic, which made Uncle Kuai breathe a sigh of relief.

He glanced at Zhao Fusheng almost gratefully, and his attitude became much gentler. When he mentioned this ghost case, he became more cooperative and replied:

"Yes, I thought at that time that this boy dared to talk nonsense, so I had to teach him a lesson so that he would not dare to bully his fifth uncle."

After finishing speaking, as if to repay Zhao Fusheng for not asking more about the conflicts in the village, he explained:

"The fifth generation is two generations above Huaide. Their two families live next to each other, separated only by a wall."

Kuai Liushu's words revealed a lot of information.

Most of the houses in the village have earthen fence walls. If there is only a wall between two families, there is no way to prevent movement.

"Isn't it possible that if there is something going on in Kuai Wu's house, the people next door can clearly hear it?" Zhang Chuanshi said.

Uncle Kuai Liu's face turned dark instantly.

In other words, the people next door may have known about the affair between Mrs. Zhuang Si and her adulterer.

The two parties were related, and Kuai Huaide was a junior. If the relationship between the two parties was close, logically speaking, he should not report it, but should quietly separate Mrs. Zhuang Si and the adulterer and cover up the scandal.

Zhao Fusheng immediately felt certain in his mind: Kuai Huaide and Kuai Wu had a bad relationship. Maybe they had a grudge against each other and wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge.

"Has Kuai Wu offended Kuai Huaide?" She asked bluntly when she thought of this.

"Lao Wu owes Huaide money." Uncle Kuai Liu hesitated for a long time before answering very cautiously.

After he finished speaking, he secretly looked up at Zhao Fusheng and quickly added:

"However, Lao Wu has been unruly and drunk these past few years. He often invites unscrupulous people home to drink. Once he drinks, he gets drunk. He doesn't care about everything at home and borrows money from everywhere. He has borrowed money from many people in the village. "

It's okay if he didn't say this, but Zhao Fusheng couldn't help but want to laugh when he said this:

"Uncle Liu means that General Kuai Wu has offended everyone in the village?"

When she said this, Uncle Kuai Liu showed an annoyed look on his face.

This incident almost tore off the skin of "unity and friendship" in Kuai Liang Village, making Uncle Kuai Liu very uncomfortable:

"You can't say that -"

"My lord, let's talk about Zhuangjia Village again."

Sishu Niang on the side couldn't bear to see her husband being forced to sit still by Zhao Fusheng despite his age. In addition, she was indeed worried about her parents' family, so she interrupted the conversation between Zhao Fusheng and Kuai Liushu:

"My mother's family, they, they—"

She was also worried that Zhao Fusheng would not change the topic, but Zhao Fusheng nodded happily:

"I'd better continue talking about Kuai Man's financial report letter."

"Huh..." Uncle Kuai Liu breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said repeatedly:

"Yes Yes Yes."

"Kuai Mancai mentioned that Kuai Huaide reported the Fourth Lady Zhuang, and it was finally confirmed that the Fourth Lady Zhuang was really having an affair with a foreigner. Therefore, the village discussed and decided to sink her into the river, and the evil ghost revived that night."

Uncle Kuai Liu knew more about what happened during this period than she did. She didn’t go into details and only talked about the key things:

"He escaped and went to Zhuangjia Village to seek help."

Kuai Mancai on the side was panicked and scared.

The matter was obviously related to him, but he had no memory of going there to 'report the news'. It was as if the 'Kuai Mancai' mentioned by Zhao Fusheng had nothing to do with him, they were just two people with the same name.

"What happens next?" He swallowed and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"After that, Kuai Mancai said something strange happened in the village." Although Zhao Fusheng looked at Kuai Mancai and spoke, he did not use the word 'you' instead, but called 'Kuai Mancai' by his full name. This was undoubtedly Kuai Mancai breathed a big sigh of relief.

"What's weird?" Uncle Kuai asked curiously.

"He said that people in the village seemed to hear someone calling his name from behind, and then it seemed like someone poked the villager's back with something from behind. The named person then said he wanted to go home to greet the guests, and then the person disappeared mysteriously. "

Zhao Fusheng's words shocked the villagers inside and outside the house, and they were speechless for a long time.

"No, nothing strange happened."

Uncle Kuai Liu shook his head uneasily:

"After the evil ghost revived, our village just fell into darkness. No one called his name."

"Don't be impatient, then listen to me." Zhao Fusheng looked at him with a smile:

"Kuai Mancai said this," she paused, her eyes turned to Kuai Mancai, and she looked at Kuai Mancai with horror, and then continued:

"Suddenly he looked around as if possessed by a demon, and then told the village chief of Zhuangjia Village that someone called him and he wanted to go back to Kuailiang Village."

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall fell silent.

"..."

Everyone felt a chill coming from their hearts.

Shock and horror permeated the hearts of every villager in Kuai Liang Village. Kuai Mancai was almost scared to cry, and even stood a little unsteadily.

"Before the village chief of Zhuangjia Village had time to save him, he turned around and left - then, with blood dripping from his hands, he took two steps forward and then fell to the ground with a 'plop'."

Zhao Fusheng only listened to Zhuang Laoqi's description of the scene at that time, but she deliberately described the scene in great detail. While speaking, she stared directly at Kuai Mancai in front of her, trying to get clues from him:

"Afterwards, in front of the people in Zhuangjia Village, a big hole appeared in his vest, and his flesh and blood turned into mud. In an instant, his whole body turned into a skeleton, and his skull rolled down."

'hiss. '

Uncle Kuai Liu's children and grandchildren all took a breath of cold air, stood up in a hurry and moved their stools vigilantly, away from Kuai Mancai.

In an instant, a large open space became available around Kuai Mancai.

Uncle Kuai Liu was old and slow to react. His sons dragged him back a few steps and looked at Kuai Mancai from a distance with fear in their eyes.

The torch in the room flashed a few times, and the light instantly dimmed.

The death of Zhuang Laoqi was exactly the same as that of Kuai Mancai in his own narration. Zhao Fusheng seemed to be trapped in his own memories and did not notice the changes around him. He said to himself:

"Such a change frightened the people in Zhuangjia Village to death. At this moment, large branches and buds suddenly grew out of Kuai Mancai's skeleton. Flower buds appeared on the branches, and one flower after another bloomed. A blood-red ghost flower as big as a bowl—"

"Impossible! Impossible!"

The tight strings in Kuai Mancai's mind finally broke when he heard this, and he shouted as if his spirit had collapsed:

"No, I didn't go to Zhuangjia Village, I didn't die -"
