Card Room

Chapter 101 Chapter 07

Xiao Lou didn't notice any problems in the kitchen until Yu Hanjiang whispered in his ear and explained, "Look, the chimney on the kitchen roof is completely smoke-free."

Xiao Lou heard a look up and found that the chimney on the roof was very clean. Most people's kitchens open fire every day, and the chimneys will definitely be smoked black, but the chimneys of Mrs. Qin's house are just like the newly built house. There is no trace of blackening. Mrs. Qin obviously never cooks in the kitchen, the kitchen must be What secrets are hidden.

He noticed that Yu Hanjiang was moving forward, and Xiao Lou immediately followed.

The two wore a stealth cloak and entered the kitchen. The stove was clean, cutting boards and knives were new. The corner of the kitchen was stacked with firewood, bundles and bundles, neatly arranged, but there was no soot under the stove. It looks like it has been a long time since then.

Yu Hanjiang's eyes quickly swept through the kitchen. Except for the stacked firewood, the other places were empty and there was nothing suspicious. Instead, a corner of the stove was about 50 meters high, and the paper was pasted with red paper. The word "rice wine" was written with a black writing brush on it, and it looked like an altar of rice wine stored by the old lady in the kitchen.

This is the most common rice wine jar in the farmhouse, but Xiaolou suddenly felt wrong. He sniffed in the past and said softly, "Yu team, this tastes a bit strange, not like wine."

Yu Hanjiang walked quickly and opened the seal of the jar gently.

A strong weird smell rushed towards his face, and the two men's stomachs swelled. Yu Hanjiang hurriedly covered his nose and mouth, frowning and looking at the jar. The muddy water was frothed with several white human bones.

After all, Xiao Lou had seen a lot of human specimens in the laboratory, and there was no discomfort when he saw them. He lowered his voice and said calmly, "This is the smell of formalin, and Mrs. Qin is making human bone specimens in the wine jar."

Formalin is a medicine commonly used in medical schools to soak corpses, which can ensure that the corpses will not rot. Various pathological specimens in the laboratory are also immersed in formalin. No wonder Xiao Lou felt that the taste was familiar.

Yu Hanjiang's face was ugly. "This old Mrs. Qin not only raised a fierce Tibetan mastiff, but also used human bones in the kitchen. She must have a problem. We will search her home as soon as possible."

No gems were found in the kitchen, but the human bones that have been in the wine jar for many years are also important clues.

They left the kitchen and walked into the east room.

There is two bedrooms in Mrs. Qin's house, one of which is strangely arranged. The white curtains and white beds, and the white cloth curtain on the roof are almost all white.

Yu Hanjiang whispered, "It's not like a bedroom, it's more like a spiritual hall."

Xiao Lou nodded in agreement, glanced quickly across the room, and found nothing like the spiritual position, the remains, and the like. He was a little puzzled and said, "Mrs. Qin arranged the house like this. Should she be honouring some relatives, would it be her husband?"

According to her age, the decoration of the hall may be to commemorate the dead husband, but there are no other clues about the deceased in the room. The two quickly searched and found a delicate wooden box under the table. Xiao Lou opened it and looked inside. There is a groove that looks like a gem, but the box is empty.

Just then, he heard the voice of the strange man just now in the hall, "We have taken the gems, and the two should search elsewhere as soon as possible."

The voice went away quickly. Obviously, the other two challengers who searched at the same time as the old lady Qin searched the Lingtang first, and found the gem. Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang took a slow step, but they were not without gain.

The two continued to search the old lady's master bedroom.

Different from the "spiritual hall" style of the second bedroom, the master bedroom is arranged normally. The bed sheets and quilts are all the cyan blue that the elderly prefer, and they are cleaned. They found a comb and a mirror on the table.

Wait for the mirror

Why do blind people need mirrors

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang stunned at the same time.

Just then they saw an old face suddenly appear in the mirror.

Is Mrs. Qin

The old lady came back unknowingly and unconsciously. She walked very lightly, like ghosts, and Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang were unaware of it.

She held the mighty Tibetan Mastiff in her hand, her eyes stared at the mirror like vicious snakes. Although Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang were invisible, they suddenly saw an old face in the mirror. Two Everyone was taken aback.

Fortunately, the two of them were used to the various corpses in the secret room of the Red Heart.

Old Qin faced the air and said coldly, "Someone came into the house to steal."

The Tibetan Mastiff yelled twice into the air.

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang stood in the corner of the wall, silent, and saw the old lady Qin holding a cane, walking slowly to the bed, reaching out to find the mirror, wiping her sleeves, her voice hoarse "Don't think my wife is blind and invisible, my heart is very clear. I already knew that those who bully the blind will be punished sooner or later, ha ha ha"

Her laughter was like a ghost in the depths of hell.

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang held their breaths and did not dare to make any sound to alarm the old man. The two stayed in tacit understanding, and both wanted to see the old lady's next move. I saw her tremblingly pull out a purse from her pocket, smelled it in front of her nose, as if she was missing something, and then called "Little Black."

The Tibetan Mastiff heard the call of her master, and immediately came to her feet to slap her head. The old woman leaned down and touched her head, sneer. Let it smell, and said softly, "These things they stole also have this special scent on them. If you follow the taste, you must get them back."

The Tibetan mastiff smelled it with his nose, and then shook his tail, and a dark shadow rushed out quickly.

Xiao Lou noticed that it was not good, and opened the Taohuayuanji skill, and directly took Yu Hanjiang's space teleport to Taohuayuan.

The two took off their cloaks of cloaks and finally could see each other clearly.

Xiao Lou found that Yu Hanjiang's face was ugly. He thought his face was certainly not good, because this secret room also left a challenge for the challenger to clear the customs, and he had to find gems, but the gems had a special aroma.

The dog's nose is very smart. There are many dog ​​owners in this village. Once Mrs. Qin called the whole village to look for it, even if the challenger hid in the mountains, she could not escape her fate.

Yu Hanjiang frowned. "I didn't expect that there was a special smell on the gem."

Xiao Lou's face was serious. "The **** a is too pit. There are a total of 7 gems in Liuxi Village. In order to clear the customs, everyone will eagerly look for them. As a result, finding gems is equivalent to putting a special taste label on their body, which is easy to attract. Come after the villagers. "Thinking of the danger in the village, he hurriedly said," Xiaoye, General Shao, how is your situation? "

Ye Qi's voice came to his ears. "Rest assured, the village chief, Niuniu's, and grandma's, I have put three eavesdroppers on the map drawn by the Yu team."

With the teleport card, Ye Qi and Shao Qingge are really convenient to move, and the eavesdropper can be placed at a distance of 100 meters. They only need to hide behind the tree and remove the eavesdropper to the villager's wall. .

The next moment, I heard Ye Qi suddenly burst out a swear word, "I wiped a lot of dogs in the village and ran out. These dogs kept smelling with their noses, as if they were looking for someone."

Xiao Lou's face changed. "You are back soon, the village is in danger."

Ye Qi and Shao Qingge didn't want to stay too much. Fortunately, they all wore stealth cloaks, with the help of teleport cards, ran all the way, and soon returned to the ruined temple on the mountain.

Xiao Lou pulled them into Taohuayuan.

Taohuayuan is an independent space. Even if you chat loudly inside, people outside can't hear it.

Xiao Lou said the clues found by Mrs. Qin's family. Ye Qi's face paled slightly. "This old woman is too abnormal. She should soak people's bones in the jar. She would not have been the murderer of the village slaughter."

Xiao Loudao "I'm not sure yet. There is a spiritual hall in her house. There is a bone of a dead man in the kitchen. At present, she is really suspicious."

Yu Hanjiang added: "There is still a problem. The old lady's relatives are not present. She is currently living alone. There is no trace of fire in her kitchen. Obviously she usually does not cook by herself. So how can she solve the problem?"

Ye Qi thought for a while and said, "Yes, when Mr. Shao and I searched in the village just now, they found that Mrs. Qin went out to walk the dog and went down to the village chief's house. She stayed at the village chief's house for ten minutes. Tied the mastiff to the door, maybe she was going to eat. "

Yu Hanjiang asked, "Did you see the village chief?"

Ye Qi shook his head. "I didn't see it. Listen to the voice. It should be a young man."

Yesterday, Mrs. Qin sent a person to notify the village chief. Yu Hanjiang made a note of the person's movement path by the way. When he searched in the village at night, he locked the position of the village chief's house. There were two big willow trees at the door.

Mrs. Qin, who lives alone, seems to have a good relationship with the village head, and it is also possible to go to his house for a meal.

Xiao Lou then asked, "Is there anything unusual about that village doctor's mother-in-law's house?"

Ye Qi said, "When I went to put the eavesdropper just now, my grandmother was cooking in the kitchen. There was nothing unusual."

He turned on the eavesdropper, and at this moment some conversation came from the eavesdropper

The young woman was worried about the truth, "Grandma, our girl Niu Niu got a low fever a few days ago. She suddenly had a high fever, and she still had nonsense in her mouth. Look if she is serious."

An old voice said, "You put Niuniu on the bed, let me check."

After a gurgling noise, the old man's voice continued, "Niu Niu, this is wind and heat that hits the lungs, and the watch is out of harmony, so it will cause fever, chills, and sore throat. I will prescribe a recipe for you and go back I boiled the medicine for my daughter, drank three nights a night, and gave her an extra quilt. Don't blow the cold wind to aggravate her condition. "

The woman gratefully said, "Thank Mother-in-law."

Grandma Sun asked with concern, "You second son, you're about to be born"

The woman laughed. "Yeah, listen to my second brother saying that Xunzi's due date is in these days."

Grandma Sun nodded. "Well, you need to prepare in advance."

The woman said, "I will still have to trouble my mother-in-law to deliver my sister-in-law. It is really hard for you to be a doctor in our village."

Grandma Sun laughed. "It's okay, I'm old, and my hands and feet are not good. My little apprentice is about to start a teacher. In the future, if the life in the village is sick, just look for her."

As soon as the words fell, I heard a young girl's clear voice, "Mother-in-law, Yun Yao's medicine has been caught." Her steps were very light, and she walked over and handed the medicine to the woman. Yun Ye smiled and said, "Thank you Sunny, then I won't bother. "

The girl said, "Yunji walks slowly."

After the woman left with her child, there was a sudden clang in the room, followed by the sound of a cracked jar. The grandmother grandma said helplessly, "Xiao Qing, you're fine, everything is frizzy. This is already the fifth medicine jar you knocked over."

Xiao Qing smiled embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, mother-in-law, I can't see you. There are so many bottles and jars of your medicine, I can't remember the location."

Grandma Sun said, "You have to remember clearly, when the mother-in-law is dead, the village will rely on you later. This family of more than a hundred households has headaches and hot brains. There is no doctor here. Is n’t it waiting to die?"

The girl said seriously, "I know, I will learn well."

Grandma Sun began to teach young girls to judge various pulses and identify some drug smells. The young girl studied hard. Xiao Lou heard it for a while and did not hear anything wrong. She looked at Yu Hanjiang and said, "This grandma sounds very caring, not like The murderer who could kill dozens of people and buried the body in the ruined backyard of the temple. The girl named Xiaoqing should be seventeen or eighteen years old. She was not born when the village was slaughtered. "

Yu Hanjiang said, "Listen to the village chief."

The eavesdropping channel was switched to the village head's house. Old lady Qin came to the door with a cane, and the young village head whispered, "Aunt Qin, you mean, your house's stuff was stolen."

Yu Hanjiang keenly noticed the word "Ye" and raised his ears.

Sure enough, the old lady Qin said, "Xiao Liu, someone sneaked into your house last night, did you not notice it?"

The village head reluctantly said, "I slept very dead. I got up in the morning and found that the box was missing. My family didn't call, and I didn't know if it was fainted. It was usually called by someone when they came to the door, even When an acquaintance from the village comes, it will let me know a few times. "

Mrs. Qin's voice was hoarse. "These things are very important. You must get them back as soon as possible."

The village chief said in doubt, "You have kept us on guard with these seven stones, saying that it is a rule handed down from generation to generation. Can you tell me what these stones do?"

Mrs. Qin coughed a few times and said slowly, "You should have heard that our village was cursed long ago, and the mountain temple was destroyed, so our grandparents would be blind. Those gems were pointed by superiors and placed in the village. Of the seven positions, they can form a formation, crack the curse, and let us recover after seven generations. "

The four of Xiao Lou looked at each other.

The old lady Qin really believed this kind of cracking the curse, or she was deliberately deceiving the village head if she was the former, then she might be a foolish old lady. If it was the latter, her suspicion would be too great.

At this moment, Mrs. Qin's voice suddenly stopped, and she shouted, "Someone out there sneaks me out."

After the sound of jingling bells, there were hurried footsteps to escape.

Xiao Loudao "Should the challenger find something wrong and go to the village chief's house to eavesdrop. The challengers who can reach Spades 4 have a little skill. We have Ye Qi, and they certainly have different methods of eavesdropping."

Yu Hanjiang nodded, looking serious. "According to the information currently known, the seven gems are stepped in the village according to a matrix method. The old lady said that in order to break the curse of blindness, the gems were scattered and put out. The law keeps the villagers guarding, which undoubtedly gives us an important clue for finding gems. "

He found out the floor plan of Liuxi Village that he drew yesterday, and quickly marked a few points, saying "the first gemstone, it is inferred that it was in the backyard of the ruined temple. The one who found the human bone pit last night was the first The girl took away. "

He pointed to the location of the village chief's house. "The second gem is the bold and clever challenger who sneaked into the village chief's house last night. What measures were used to control the village's big yellow dog, he stole the gem overnight . "

Yu Hanjiang said, "The third one is the one from Mrs. Qin's house. When we went to find the cloak just now, two challengers also wore the cloak and found the gem one step ahead of us."

The four looked down together at the floor plan.

The three locations that have been marked, the ruined temple on the west hill, the village chief's home, and the old lady's home, all seem to form a triangle.

Xiao Lou always felt wrong when looking at it. He turned around and looked at it at a different angle, using the one in Xishan as the starting point. Then he reached out and tried to connect the three gems with lines.

He found that he had written a "human" character, and the one in Xishan was a "human" character.

Xiao Lou's eyes lighted up. "From the air, the branch of the stone should be a simple structure diagram of the human body. This one in Xishan is the human head. The two in the village head and the old lady's house are symmetrical. , Are the two hands of a person. If I want to draw a human figure, I still have the neck, abdomen, and two legs, all of which add up to seven. "

Yu Hanjiang Road "the neck, that is, two hands extending upwards in the opposite direction, the head extending downwards, the junction of the three lines", he pointed precisely to a location on the map "is a pond."

Xiao Lou nodded and said, "The position of the lower abdomen is the house in the easternmost part of the village, with two feet in the farmland in the southeast direction."

Shao Qingge and Ye Qi looked at each other.

The two great red peach gods have so quickly unlocked the secret of the gem's location

Sure enough, it was necessary to eavesdrop on the conversations of the ncs and find the key information in the **** room. Otherwise, blindly look, who knows where the gem is in such a large village

The location of the seven gems is actually a huge human body structure with the head in the Xishan Mountain, the feet in the farmland, and the entire Liuxi Village.

Shao Qingge said in a happy mood, "Would we just find two gems, wouldn't we at least clear the customs?"

Xiao Loudao "The simple customs clearance is indeed to find gems. Three gems have been taken away by other challengers, and there are not many left. We want to find two for customs clearance, so we must hurry up."

Yu Hanjiang Road "The villagers started a large-scale search. The smell of gemstones will lead the villagers to the West Mountain. It is no longer safe here. We should go the other way and find it in the farmland to the east.

Xiao Lou smiled slightly. "I think so."

Yu Hanjiang simply put away the map "Let's go."

Shao Qingge followed behind the two with a smile, thinking that it felt good to lie down and win.
