Who will this murderer be? I thought I was in Shuiliu Village.

Because the movement was very intense at that time, someone once said a joke to a woman and was paraded on the street for being a hooligan. Xiaofang dug a gold box from the Beidi Temple. It is easy to imagine how big the charge was. Being locked in the brigade headquarters was actually a so-called cowshed, which was a prison. It was impossible for people from outside the village to go in and take people away. Xiaofang was even more impossible for him to run out to commit suicide by himself. How could the woman in Xiping Village named Xiuer secretly send Xiaofang food? This is impossible to figure it out.

The greed of human nature is regardless of the period, even in that turbulent era. Because the villagers have seen the golden box with their own eyes, they must have become greedy. It is possible to be familiar with the guards in their own village and deceive the guards. Or, the guards steal themselves, take off the golden box from Xiaofang's neck and kill it, and then drag it out to make the illusion of hanging them.

But I can't figure it out, for Mao to cut off her hand?

After touching his nose and thinking, it might be that Xiaofang held the gold box tightly and did not loosen, which led to her hand being chopped.

This golden box is hidden under the base of the statue, and it must be not an ordinary thing. Perhaps it was because Xiaofang came into contact with it that it became different from ordinary people, and his soul became very powerful after death.

The next day, the coffin was made. Lu Fei, Wang Zijun, Qu Mo and Ma Yunxi came to find me, so he called them to Shuiliuzhuang together. He told them the story of the evil corpse and Xiaofang on the way. After hearing this, Qu Mo and Ma Yunxi were as sad as Shen Bing.

When I arrived at the ground, I found that Luo Yushan was quite obedient and lived in a straw shed to guard him. I asked him if Sha Qiangzi had been back? He said that he would not only come back, but also go to the temple. Luo Yushan was not as powerful as this fool, so he kicked him a few times and rushed into the temple gate. Luo Yushan returned to the village and moved his uncle over, and then he was very convinced and coaxed the fool away.

I looked up at the south. This was exactly the direction of Xiping Village. Did the silly boy disappear after Xiaofang's instructions to see Xiu'er go? After a while, after completing the ritual, I went to Xiping Village to find Xiu'er for information.

He asked again that there was no movement last night, right? Luo Yushan said with a bitter face: "Why didn't it move? The fire was burning in the brazier in the temple all night, and the black shadow was shaking up and down, almost scaring me to death. Mr. Xi, when are you planning to let me see it?"

I said it was almost there, only five or six days. When this bastard heard it, he almost cried. I smiled and asked him to go back to the village to call a few strong men, took shovels, used a compass and a tape ruler, used a grave and the middle of the temple as the axis, and measured one hundred meters outwards, and then used a compass to locate it, digged eight large holes, and buried the coffin.

When we came, we bought eight paper men from the paper horse shop and wet them up and sealed them on the facade. After the coffin was buried, Lu Fei and I chanted the spell and burned the talisman and did a quarter of an hour of ritual. The Eight Coffin Ghost Suppression Bureau was considered to be the first.

We went straight to Xiping Village without stopping, first found Wei Qing and his wife, and asked about an old lady named Xiu'er. Wei Qing was stunned when he heard this. We didn't know what it meant, but his wife Zhao Tinghua smiled and said, "There is only one village called Xiu'er, which is our grandma."

This is really a matter of searching for nothing. It turns out that Xiu'er is Grandma Wei Qing! I urged Wei Qing to call his grandma over. To be honest, I was full of expectations for this old lady, because if I get a trace of clues about Xiaofang, I might find the truth about the murderer and Xiaofang being killed.

As mentioned earlier, our rural families usually don’t live with their parents after marriage, let alone grandma. Wei Qing put Xiaowu on me and hurriedly ran out. Not long after, he called the old lady.

She looks seventy years old, but in fact, rural women are not good at skin care and their appearance is much older than their real age. The old lady has good bones, is not deaf in her ears or eyes, and walks very vigorously. I heard that we are friends with Wei Qing, so I was very happy to ask her about the past.

When I mentioned Xiaofang, the old lady's face immediately sank and her eyes were filled with tears. None of us spoke, and the old lady was too excited, so she would just let her rest as she could not urge her.

After a while, the old lady wiped her tears and sighed and asked, "Is there something wrong with Xiaofang's cemetery?"

I nodded and said, "Not only happens, but also may happen. We just want to understand the cause of Xiaofang's death, so that we can prescribe the right medicine and resolve her resentment."

"Actually, a silly boy knocked on my window last night and left a few words on the ground at the door. I knew that Xiaofang hadn't left yet and she was going to cause trouble." said the old lady.

"Ah, is this happening?" Shen Bing said in shock.

The old lady continued to talk about last night when someone jumped into the yard and knocked on the window a few times. She asked who it was. The man was so stupid that he talked nonsense, and then ran away. She took the flashlight and saw the words "Chasing the willows on the grave in seven days" written on the ground at the door.

I was shocked when I heard this. The willow on the grave was like the old Huai Guizi, which could allow the ghost to climb out along this underworld path. Damn, seven days later, isn't that just the day when the ancestor came out of seclusion? If she was asked to come out in advance, the ancestor would probably have no choice.

The old lady continued, and when she saw these words, she knew that Xiaofang was coming to find her, because she kept visiting Xiaofang's grave and always saw a fool in the temple smirking at her. The fool had come, which means that Xiaofang asked him to send a message.

Hearing this, Shen Bing asked, "Then you went to the grave yesterday, why didn't the silly boy notify you and insisted on coming in the middle of the night?"

The old lady shook her head: "I didn't go to the grave yesterday, it's not a festival."

We couldn't help but look at each other. What's going on? It's not the grave that the old lady is here. Who would it be? Could it be the murderer? It's not that there is no possibility. Some of those who have criticized Xiaofang are not dead. The strange incidents in the past two days have made them feel uneasy. It's reasonable to send some sacrifices to the grave.

The old lady then told me about the past. Xiaofang liked to find cultural relics and often ran around. She came to Xiping Village. The two girls could get along and became good friends. Because the two villages and fields were bordered by fields, when they were doing farm work, they would sit together and chat as soon as they rested.

More than ten days before Xiaofang's death, lightning and thunder were roaring that night, and it was raining heavily. Xiaofang suddenly ran over to find her. Xiaofang was soaked, her eyes were full of fear, and she was holding something wrapped in a towel in her hand, and her whole body was shaking.

At that time, the old lady had not married Grandpa Wei Qing, so she quickly let her get into her bed, took off her clothes and baked it on the fire. The old lady asked her why it was raining so hard, and see what it was like, so that she would stop catching a cold. In that era, those who lacked medical treatment and medicine could kill people if they caught a cold.

Xiaofang started to look out the window and refused to speak. After a long time, she sighed and said, "I found a golden box in Beidi Temple!" As she said that, she uncovered the towel on her hand, revealing a golden square box.
