Reality is always more cruel than ideals. Although Shaodong asked Wang Bo to surround them, Wang Bo did not make any progress until Mr. Jiang's house, and he had no choice but to go back and meet Shao Dong and others.

What made Shao Dong the most helpless was that even though he arrived at the door of Mr. Jiang's house and Wang Bo came back, he could still feel a pair of eyes staring at him, making him feel uncomfortable all over, but Wang Bo, the former scout, did not pull out the man himself.

There are only two reasons.

1. The other party is more familiar with every road and every wall crack in Xihe Village than Wang Bo.

2. This is just an illusion from Shaodong.

In addition to these two reasons, Shaodong really can't find the third reason.

However, Shaodong has something good, but when he can't find the answer, he won't be too entangled, and it will also avoid the embarrassment of falling into a dead end and unable to get out of it.

Putting aside these, Shaodong and his group went straight into Mr. Jiang's home.

It is incomparable to Mr. Zhang's house. Mr. Jiang's house is an ordinary farm household. When the group came in, Mr. Jiang was holding a big cigarette pole and sucking it.

"Old man, you'd better smoke less." Seeing this scene, Old Zhao, who was familiar with him, couldn't help but mutter.

He said this only just to care about Mr. Jiang's body.

In response to this, Mr. Jiang waved his hand and greeted everyone to sit down, and then said casually: "I said why are you worried about in a day? At my age, aren't you just waiting to die? Death early and late, and sooner or later, and you'll die sooner or later. Since you're all going to die, it's better to let me die comfortably."

I have to say that Mr. Jiang is an old man who is very open-minded. In response to this, Old Zhao could only shake his head helplessly. Obviously, he had heard Mr. Jiang's argument before.

"Are you here to ask me about the Xu family?" Seeing that Old Zhao shook his head and shut up, Old Master Jiang took the lead in asking.

Shao Dong and others nodded, and did not rush to say anything.

However, Mr. Jiang didn't raise his eyelids, and then he sucked his big cigarette puff again, and suddenly said, "No need to ask, I know that Lao Xu's death was not an accident."

His sudden words shocked Shaodong and the others stood up almost at the same time.

"What a fuss, I want to scare me, the old man to death." Mr. Jiang was very disdainful of Shao Dong and others' performance.

Although he lacked some politeness in his words, firstly, he was at this age, and secondly, the old man might really know something, so everyone didn't care at the moment, but instead asked in surprise: "How did you know?"

Mr. Jiang did not hide it either. He first smoked a bag of cigarettes, and it seemed that he had returned to decades ago. After a long time, he said, "Actually, I knew it when Old Man Xu died."

After Mr. Jiang finished speaking, Shao Dong and others finally understood what it means to be striking. This old man who seemed to have seen through life and death actually knew everything, and he was more clear than the son of the person involved.

When Old Man Xu's father just passed away, he knew it. It is conceivable how long this secret has been hidden in his heart.

At this moment, Shao Dong asked in confusion: "How did you know?"

"Do you know how Old Man Xu died?" Mr. Jiang asked without answering.

Regarding this question, Shao Dong replied without thinking: "Didn't it mean that he was bitten to death by a poisonous snake?"

"Venous snakes are poisonous snakes, there is no problem with this." Mr. Jiang's thoughts suddenly reached the time when Old Man Xu's father was bitten to death by a poisonous snake decades ago.

Hearing Mr. Jiang’s question, Shao Dong asked curiously: “Why, is there something wrong with this poisonous snake?”

"Is there a problem?" Mr. Jiang smiled and said, "It's not just a problem. Do you know that the poisonous snake that bit Old Man Xu to death is called Mangshan Iron Head! It can be said to be the most poisonous snake in the world."

Mangshan soldering iron head?

This name sounds familiar, but Shao Dong and others still didn't realize what was wrong with it.

Mr. Jiang didn't care whether they knew it or not, and said to himself: "You know, this kind of poisonous snake can be sold for more than one million on the black market around the world!"

"Are you talking about the iron head called the panda in the snake?" Shao Dong suddenly thought.

Speaking of which, this snake named Mangshan Iron Head is still very famous among snakes. Firstly, its high black market price and as precious as pandas, and secondly, its endangered and extinct number.

"It's it." Mr. Jiang said: "In fact, whether it is a panda among snakes, or whether it can be sold for more than one million yuan, is not worth my doubts about these. But after so many years, you should know where this snake only appears. In other words, there is no soil for this kind of soldering iron head to grow at all!"

After saying that, Mr. Jiang also said, "For so many years, I have often gone up the mountain to see if we really have such iron heads here. Unfortunately, after so many years, let alone Mangshan iron heads, we can't even find an ordinary snake here."

In fact, Mr. Jiang is also a person with aspirations. The reason why he has been insisting on going up the mountain for so many years is to prove whether Old Man Xu's father's death was an accident or something else.

Secondly, it is also the most important reason. If he could find the Mangshan iron head near Xihe Village, to be honest, it would definitely cause a sensation across the country and even the whole world. At that time, he would definitely make outstanding contributions to Xihe Village.

In this Xihe Village, except for the current Old Man Xu, everyone probably doesn’t want to have a death knell on the mountain to ring for themselves after they die, even if it is just like that, it will make people feel supreme glory.

Even Old Man Xu, before today, he felt that if Xu Ping died in the future, he would definitely be qualified to make people ring the death knell...

Of course, what he was thinking had nothing to do with Shao Dong and others. What Shao Dong is thinking about now is the death of Old Man Xu's father.

After thinking for a while, Shao Dong asked, "How did you know that the poisonous snake that bit Xu's father to death was a soldering iron head? I heard from Mr Xu that his father came back by himself at that time, and no one had seen the snake that bit him."

"Bad, he knows the truth. At that time, he said that his father was bitten by a snake while working on the mountain, and that was impossible. If he was bitten by a Mangshan iron-headed snake when he was working on the mountain, he would not be able to come back at all." Mr. Jiang was very disdainful of this. He didn't believe that Old Man Xu's father was bitten by a snake on the mountain.

In fact, this is true. If it were indeed the case as Mr. Jiang said, the one who bit Mr. Xu's father was Mangshan's iron-headed snake, it would be impossible to walk back.

But Shao Dong was not curious about this question, so he immediately asked: "How did you determine that the snake that bit Xu's father was the Mangshan soldering iron head?"

"I found the doctor from their family that year." said the old man, "Actually, it's not a doctor. He is just a friend of mine. He likes to study snakes on weekdays. After he heard about the snake like Mangshan iron-headed, he went to another province to study for a few years. The year when Old Man Xu died, he happened to come back to drink with me. When I went to Old Man Xu's house, he followed him. He could see at a glance that Old Man Xu's symptoms were snake venom. Moreover, based on the wound, he had already concluded that it was Mangshan iron-headed snake. But he was very curious because at that time, this snake only appeared in a place called Mangshan in another province, so he didn't say anything at the moment, just said vaguely, it was a poisonous snake.

Later, when he returned to my house, he asked me, is there a Mangshan iron-headed snake in our village? I was stunned at the time and didn't know what a Mangshan iron-headed snake was. So I directly said to him, "I have never seen a snake in our village."

Then he said directly that Old Man Xu might have been killed by someone, and immediately told me about the Mangshan iron-headed snake."

After Mr. Jiang said that, Shao Dong and others pondered for a moment.

Mangshan iron head, the reason why this snake is called this is because it was discovered that it is located in Mangshan, which is located in Xihe Village, and there are several provinces in the middle.

If there are many snakes in this place, it's okay, but the problem is that not to mention Xihe Village, there are not many snakes in H County, because the climate here is really not suitable for the growth of snakes.

So, how did a snake thousands of miles away run to Xihe Village and kill people?

Moreover, as Mr. Jiang said, his friend could go to the scene of the incident for several years to study a snake, which shows that he is still very insightful in the species of snakes and is unlikely to misunderstand.

Then, if we say that the poisonous snake that bit Xu's father to death was the Mangshan soldering iron head.

According to the current situation, the snake must have been near Xu's house when it bit Xu's father, otherwise Old Man Xu would not be able to return home at all.

Then the question is, since this snake is near Old Man Xu's house, why no one has seen it? You must know that snakes are very lazy and cannot move their nests easily.

Moreover, the day after Old Man Xu's father died, there were so many people who came to their house. No one had ever seen a snake, nor was there a second person bitten by a snake. All of these can only explain one problem.

It was the murderer who was taken away!

Otherwise, it would never disappear so neatly.

Moreover, even though no one noticed it at that time, you should know that snakes are really the type that is not good at moving nests. They missed it in the first year, the second year, the third year, and the fourth year?

Just near Old Man Xu's house, he has lived in his own home for decades, but hasn't seen him even once?
