This year's monsters are super fierce [75]

"Master, please follow the old man." Village head Meng of Xiemeng Village came out to greet a monk soon after hearing that a monk was coming.

Village head Meng directly asked Yan Buzhou and Wuyan to go and see the bodies of the seven dead dogs that had been bled.Folks say that June is sunny, and it is conceivable that mid-June is the hottest time of the year, and there will be six dead dogs here, which can hardly hide the stench.

However, the two followed Village Chief Meng into the ice-filled Yizhuang, and after seeing the dead faces of the six dogs, they couldn't help but feel a chill.

All six dogs were beheaded.It was said to be decapitated, but there was still a layer of leather belt left, which made the dog's head fall on the ground.Their eyes were wide open, and even the faces of dogs gave people a frightened expression.

"Ten days ago early in the morning, the villagers found their bodies on the stone tablet at the entrance of the village."

Village head Meng pointed to the necks of the six dogs, "It's the dogs hanging on the top of the stele with their heads in front and their bodies behind. The six dogs couldn't be lined up at once, they were stacked on top of each other, and the three on the left were covered with more blood. Put it on the bottom, and the three on the right are on top."

The wounds of the six dogs were smooth and clean.

Yan Buzhou checked the dead dog's neck with gloves on, and it can be seen that the fatal injury was very simple, as if the dog's neck was directly severed with a whip.

Village head Meng continued, "I got someone to check them carefully, and they were all shaved. Except for the wound on the neck, there were no other injuries on the body."

There is no need to emphasize this point, as the two of them could tell at a glance that there were no other injuries on the naked dog's body.

"These six dogs are not small. I think they should be in their prime."

Wu Yan has practiced in Kunlun for many years, and his cognition is somewhat different from that of the world, but he has observed and studied all the way for two months, and his common sense is basically correct.

Judging from the dog's teeth, these six dogs are all strong and of the type used to defend their homes.

The problem is that the strong dog was killed in a flash, without even a trace of a fight. I'm afraid it didn't even have time to resist.Then the murderer who killed them is powerful enough.

"It has been confirmed that they have not been drugged?" Seeing that Village Chief Meng nodded, Wu Yan turned his head to look at Yan Buzhou. This matter may be difficult to decide.

Folk earthwork, dog blood can get rid of evil spirits.

This really worked, so when the blood of the six dogs was drained, it was impossible to tell what kind of monster they encountered—the blood of the dog and the spirit of the monster offset each other.

Village head Meng would not make a fuss over the death of one dog, but six dogs died in such a strange way, how could he not ask someone to see what happened right away.

Firstly, the experts invited to determine the cause of death of the dogs was beheading, and then invited Taoist monks to reassure their souls.

"Seven days ago, Daoist Jiang and Master Yuantong came to the village. Both of them felt that the deaths of these dogs must be taken seriously. From the wounds, it can be seen that there are only two possibilities for this case. The martial arts master was killed with a whip, or it was a demon. mischief.

Our village has never provoked people in the martial arts. Even though it is not far from the old place of Yunmengze, it has never had any contact with the water village. Besides, it doesn't make sense for a master to kill six dogs like this without a reason. "

Village Chief Meng sighed deeply when he said this, "As for the monsters, most people in the village are honest and honest, and don't have the guts to provoke them."

It turned out that someone had already taken over the matter.

Yan Buzhou is not a newcomer, she has already understood a lot of rules in the world, such as exorcising ghosts and demons, there is one person, one order, and it is very taboo to have two masters for one thing.

Unless the consent of the party receiving the task is obtained, it is also to avoid conflicts between the two groups of people's handling methods.

"Meng Village Chief, may I ask where Daoist Jiang and Master Yuantong are now?"

Although Yan Buzhou didn't plan to stick to the rules, he might as well ask a few words to avoid avoidable conflicts. "Could it be that the two seniors let go of it?"

"It's not that I don't care, it's that there is no audio."

Village head Meng is worried about this. Jiang Qing and Yuan Tong are well-known outsiders in Jingzhou City. The two went to the original owner's house of the six dogs seven days ago, and finally decided to go to the water village to find clues. .

"Those two experts think that the murderer chose to attack the six dogs, not at the people who raised them, but at the Tao family who were surrounded in the middle."

The six dogs came from six different families, and it was a coincidence that the six families were not in a circle.Circled in the middle is the Tao family.

The Tao family is a single family of three generations, but the population of the family is not simple enough. It can be roughly counted as nine women and two men.

The head of the family, Tao Jie, is 34 years old. He also passed the imperial examination twice when he was in his twenties. After failing repeatedly, he relied on copying books to earn some small money.

"Forgive the poor monk for taking the liberty, but copying books can support the family?"

Wu Yan knows that the price of books is not low, but it should be a best-selling author like Yan Buzhou who makes money. Can Tao Jie rely on copying books to support his family?

"Of course not. The affairs of the Tao family are a mess."

Village head Meng briefly mentioned that Tao Jie's father passed away 15 years ago, and that year he happened to meet Tao Jie's imperial examination, so he said that his failure was due to his father's death and abnormal performance.It sounds reasonable, but everyone in Xiemeng Village knows that's not the case.

Because of the single pass of the three generations, Tao Jie was spoiled since he was a child.When he became an adult, he didn't show much filial piety to his parents. Instead, he treated him like a servant.

"One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Old Tao and his wife are still not happy after outsiders say a few words. The villagers don't bother to take care of his family's affairs. The one who suffers is Yu Liuniang who married Tao Jie."

Yu Liuniang was married to Xiemeng Village from a distant village.

Rather than marrying her, it would be better to say that she was half-sold to Tao's family, the only difference was that the name was nicer, and the money for selling her body was called bride price.

This is by no means a random arrangement behind the scenes, which family would marry their daughter to the Tao family.The father-in-law and the mother-in-law dote on their son, but the son can't stand up from the root, and he is crooked.

"The Tao family originally wanted to find a daughter-in-law from the village, but no one paid any attention to his family. They searched farther and farther, and finally found Yu Liuniang, who was said to be a good child 14 years ago."

Village head Meng led Yan Buzhou and Wuyan to Tao's house, and he made a seven while walking. "Good birth is good birth, but it is different from Mrs. Tao's idea. In ten years, Yu Liuniang gave birth to one child after another, and then gave birth to seven daughters. It is said that flowering first and then fruiting, but his family is only flowering. result."

Seven children in ten years? !

Yan Buzhou felt a stomach ache when he heard it, it was the first time that this kind of thing actually happened to him, and he had only heard about it in the news before. "and after?"

"I don't know the situation of rich and noble families. Anyway, there is no such way of life in our village. It doesn't take into account whether a woman's body can bear it. Yu Liuniang has a hard life, and she has to take on the big work of Tao's family while she is pregnant. Little job."

Village head Meng looked at Wuyan, "Didn't the master ask if copying books can support the family's livelihood? Of course not, most of it depends on Liu Niang's exhaustion. After Liu Niang came to Xiemeng Village, she learned embroidery. She is quite talented in this area and earns a lot of money."

However, earning a lot of money does not mean that you will be able to live a straight life.

Four years ago, Mrs. Tao made Tao Jie divorce his wife out of nature, because Yu Liuniang could not give birth to a son, and the three generations of the Tao family could not cut off the incense.That incident was quite a big one, and Yu Liuniang was crying so hard that she almost died, she said that she could not be divorced even if she died, because her natal family would never care about her.

Village head Meng kept shaking his head, "I don't know what Yu Liuniang and Tao Jie said at that time, but Mrs. Tao promised to give me another chance. As long as the next child is a boy within a year and a half, there is no mention of divorce." Yu Liuniang happily agreed, wondering if it was because of God's mercy that she gave birth to a boy, but the problem lies in the boy."

Hearing this, Yan Buzhou almost uttered two words involuntarily—I'm sick, why would Yu Liuniang stay at Tao's house if he can make money?That's not a disease of self-abuse and not knowing how to fight.

"What's wrong with that baby boy? Doesn't he look like Tao Jie?" Yan Buzhou couldn't help asking, "Is Yu Liuniang still in Tao's house?"

Village Chief Meng nodded and shook his head again.

It was said that she was pregnant in ten months, but Yu Liuniang's baby was born only six months after it failed, and it was the same size as a normal full-term baby.

Mrs. Tao also suspected that Yu Liuniang was stealing, but the baby was exactly the same as Tao Jie when he was a child.My mother knew this best, so she dispelled her and Tao Jie's suspicions.

A year ago, Yu Liuniang was pregnant again, and this time she gave birth to a boy in ten months.

Mrs. Tao finally gave Yu Liuniang some good looks, but after the birth of Xiaojiu from the Tao family, weird things happened.

"Two months ago, the three-year-old Tao Ba wanted to suffocate the baby Tao Jiu to death. There was a lot of noise about this matter, you should ask how is it possible?

The villagers also wanted to ask if something was wrong.The next day, Tao Ba and Yu Liuniang disappeared.The village helped to find it and reported it to the officials, but they were nowhere to be found for two months, and six dogs died tragically when they arrived. "

Village head Meng said that he had already come to Tao's house and knocked on the door. "Is Tao Jie there? Open the door, it's me, Lao Meng. I have something to do with your family."

I only heard the voice of a middle-aged woman with a loud voice coming from inside. "Meng Village Chief, why are you here again! I've already said that the death of those dogs has nothing to do with my family. I have no ability to kill them. God knows what their masters did to offend the evil star.

If you didn't come here for the dog, but for that prostitute, I couldn't even open the door.The Tao family doesn't have that kind of adulterous daughter-in-law, and the adulterous woman gave birth to a boy six months ago, she must have used tricks to deceive me, making me feel exactly the same as Xiaojie when he was a child.

In the past three years, that little brat grew less and less like Xiaojie.I've said it all, there's no disappearance, it's just that the prostitute/wife ran away with that little bastard. "

"Song Chunhua, open the door for me!" Hearing the mouthful of prostitutes, Village Chief Meng was really annoyed as an outsider, "Why are you so ignorant of good and evil! I said it before. Don't like dogs, now that six dogs are dead, why don't you think about who will die next?"
