Chapter 16 The Missing Erxi

"Why is it foggy?"

Niu Erxi was stunned for a moment.

According to the current temperature, it shouldn't be foggy at this time.

And this fog seemed to have risen suddenly.

Niu Erxi narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. It seemed that something was emerging from the fog.

The two leading the group were musicians wearing red wedding hats and holding suonas in their hands, dancing, walking, and playing the suonas.

Behind them followed a band holding red banners and beating drums and gongs.

In the middle of the procession, there were eight people carrying a red sedan chair for the bride.

The sound of suona and gongs and drums drifted into his ears along with the wind.

Niu Erxi: "Whose wedding is this? Using a sedan chair carried by eight people?"

Niu Erxi thought he had encountered a wedding procession.

But he reacted immediately the next second and realized something was wrong.

"No! What era is it now? It's not the ancient times. Who would still use a sedan chair with eight bearers to pick up the bride? Unless there are some rich people in the city who like to play tricks, they might choose a Chinese retro wedding.

Nowadays, weddings in rural areas are very grand. Sedan chairs are no longer used. People pick up the bride and groom in cars. Suona is rarely played.

And, what time is this? It's almost midnight, why would someone pick up a bride at this time? "

The bride-picking ceremony usually takes place during the day, unless the bride's home is far away, in which case they will set off in the early morning.

But picking up the bride in the early morning is basically impossible.

And the sound of gongs and drums makes such a loud noise.

No one from the distant village came out to see, it was impossible.

As far as Niu Erxi knew, there were no young men in the village getting married recently.

Niu Erxi was instantly sweating profusely.

He began to realize that he had encountered something unclean.

Niu Erxi watched the wedding procession getting closer and closer to him, as if they didn't see him at all.

He was even more convinced that this thing was unclean.

He was so scared that he turned around and left.

Prepare to run first.

However, when he turned around, Niu Erxi was so frightened that the top of his head exploded.

Because there was also fog behind him, and there was another pair of people.

This other group of people was even more terrifying than the previous wedding procession.

This team of people wore straw hats, straw raincoats, held up white flags, and carried rice, meat and pig heads.

The most important thing is that there was someone carrying a big black coffin in the middle of the team.

The front is for happy events, and the back is for sad events.

There are only two ways to go on this road: forward or backward.

So at this moment Niu Erxi was caught between two situations.

He was so scared that his heart almost jumped out, and at this moment he just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.

He wanted to jump into the river and run away.

However, he then discovered that his entire body seemed to be stiff, fixed in place, and not a single muscle in his body could move.

He was under control.

Then, Niu Erxi could only watch the two teams coming up to him one after another.

Collide and penetrate each other.

Niu Erxi's figure also disappeared from the spot and never appeared again.

All that was left was his tricycle and some things he used for work. …

The next day, after not returning home all night, Niu Erxi's family, who had been waiting at home all night, called the police.

Report this matter to the government office.

After learning about this, the government sent several officials to investigate.

After these officials led the team to this place, they investigated the scene of Niu Erxi's disappearance.

They found that Niu Erxi's belongings were all in the car, and the car was well preserved and there was no damage.

The only problem is that Niu Erxi is missing.

Where can he go?

An officer asked, "Maybe he was drunk? Did he fall asleep somewhere on the way?"

This kind of thing happens frequently in the village.

There are many drunkards who drive tricycles or electric vehicles after drinking. After the alcohol takes effect, they feel dizzy and fall asleep on the side of the road.

There have even been drunkards who died from this, freezing to death in the winter, or being run over by passing cars at night, with no clear cause. Although such things are ridiculous, they have indeed happened quite a lot.

The captain of the police shook his head: "We basically rule out this possibility. First, Niu Erxi's family said that Niu Erxi never drinks, doesn't like the taste of liquor, and it's even more impossible for him to have the habit of drinking and driving.

Second, if Niu Erxi fell down while driving, then his car is here and he should be not far away, otherwise the car would not have been able to drive here by itself.

But we searched everywhere and couldn't find him. So it's impossible to say that it was the case you described."

“Also, Niu Erxi’s tricycle was still in operation when it was discovered. It was only stopped temporarily. Why would he stop in the middle of the night in this wilderness?

Niu Erxi has a very good relationship with his wife and parents, and his children are obedient. He has also made a lot of money in the past few years by contracting large farmland. With such a happy life, it is basically impossible for him to commit suicide.

Murder? But there was no sign of a fight at the scene. Instead, judging from the direction of the car, Niu Erxi wanted to drive into the river on both sides? "

"When you combine all of the above factors, what did he see? The car was parked, there was no argument, so there was no sign of a fight, but it prompted him to drive the car into the river?"

If the officers only looked at the two points of parking and the lack of signs of a fight, they would probably infer that the crime might have been committed by an acquaintance.

Because if you see an acquaintance in front of you, you might stop the car and chat with him. This is a very normal logic. However, if the acquaintance takes this opportunity to take action, and the means are ruthless, accurate and fast, such a situation will indeed occur.

But the question is, what's the point of driving the car into the river?

There is no way to explain this.

Could it be that he accidentally touched the front of the car while struggling?

Niu Erxi wanted to fall into the river with the murderer?
It's not impossible, but it's too far-fetched.

After all, if he struggled to move the car, it would conflict with the fact that there were no signs of fighting in front.

Just when the government officials were at a loss and could not solve the case.

A crazy fool among the crowd of villagers shouted.

"There's a ghost! Aaaaaahhh!"

"There's a ghost. A ghost killed Uncle Erxi!"

……

Several officers looked up at the crazy idiot.

An officer said, "Village head, please let the villagers go back first. It's too noisy here and it affects our investigation."

But the next second, they didn't expect that the village chief would actually defend the fool who talked nonsense.

The village chief said: "Officials, please don't mind. This is our village's fool and the village guard. Maybe he is right.

Erxi's disappearance might really be related to ghosts."

The officers didn't expect the village chief to say this suddenly. They looked at each other and couldn't help but said, "Village chief, are you confused? How is this possible?"

The village chief said: "I am not talking nonsense, officer, I am telling you the truth, this fool is born with the ability to see dirty things.

So what he said might be true!"
