Chapter 33: :selfish

At noon, the meal was a bit heavy. Qi Ye, who went to see the corpse of Niu Zi and his mother, hadn’t spoken much since he came back, and said nothing about the corpse. Wei Yan was actually not curious. After the meal, only the sound of chewing and the collision between chopsticks was left.
"I'm going to feed the cows some food." Yaoli got up first and walked out with a bowl full of tears.
"Lao Fan, Niu Zi's mother...?" The village head couldn't hold back, and he asked.
Lao Fan raised his eyelids and looked at Qi Nue. After touching Qi Nue's sight, the goatee trembled and shook his head quickly: "It's okay, we lifted the body down and put it on the bed."
Hearing this, the village head seemed to let go of his heart, and said a few words: "That's good...that's good..."
Saying that, Zheng Quzhi noticed that there seemed to be some worry between the village head's eyebrows.
After eating, Zheng Quzhi just came out of the toilet and was pulled into a dark place by the village chief. He lowered his voice and asked, "Is that you?"
"What?" Zheng Quzhi looked confused.
"I saw this in the room." The village chief took out something from his pocket and unfolded it in front of Zheng Quzhi.
Zheng Quzhi was startled. The thing was nothing else, it was actually the two paper charms that Fan Da gave him yesterday.
"This is what my mother asked for me before I came to travel." Without knowing the situation, Zheng Quzhi didn't dare to act rashly, so he hurriedly found an excuse and wanted to prevaricate.
"Xiao Zheng, don't lie to uncle, he is counting on you to save his life!" There were two tears on the village head's face, and tears continued to flow in his muddy eyes.
"Uncle." Zheng Quzhi couldn't laugh or cry. "You don't see me as a big man when I didn't accomplish this thing. How can I save you?"
"I know." The village head nodded, "You Mr. Wei is capable, but he ignores me... Xiao Zheng, you help me, please beg Mr. Wei... I... I..."
The village chief hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth as if he was going to fight, and made up his mind: "I will give Yaoli to you!"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Quzhi's face was slightly cold.
The village chief not only wants to send his daughter out, but it is not ‘you’, but ‘you’. Although only one word is missing, the result is very different.
Zheng Quzhi disgusted the village chief very much, did not hide his disgust in the slightest, pushed away the village chief, and said indifferently: "No, Lao Tzu is a good citizen."
After speaking, he turned and left without hesitation.
This bad old man! Yaoli has had a dad like him, and she has suffered for eight lifetimes.
The village chief wanted to chase after him: "Hey, wait!"
After all, they were no better than Zheng Quzhi's long legs. He had only taken a few steps, and they had already reached the door of the room and closed the door with a snap.
The village chief's face became extremely ugly, as if thinking of something, panic and fear slowly took over his entire face. He clenched his fists and glanced at the room in a puzzled way.
Why did it happen if it was clearly stated?
In the evening, Cai Qian and Qi Mao also came to Wei Yan's room. As soon as he entered the room, Qi Xu turned around and pasted a talisman behind the door, chanting a few spells in a low voice.
Seeing Zheng Quzhi looking at it with astonishment, Wei Yan explained in a low voice, "That is to prevent others from eavesdropping."
Is it that awesome? Zheng Quzhi looked at Qi Yan enviously. If he mastered this technique, then he would no longer have to worry about being overheard by others...
I remember once, he just complained in the dressing room about which celebrity was late, he was heard, and finally posted on the Internet.
Later, he was hacked by fans of that star for six months. I feel so sad when I think about it.
Inside, Wei Yan sat on a stool, looked down at the ground, and said quietly: "Say."
Ok? Say what?
Just as Zheng Quzhi wanted to ask, Qi Yue spoke: "This morning, Cai Yuan and I went to the village to look for a cow and saw a woman on the road."
The village chief said before that someone could not go out during the seven days when someone died, so they stopped immediately and prepared to see the situation.
As soon as I approached, I heard the woman muttering and holding the pillow in her hand: "Erdan... Erdan..."
Cai Qian and Qi Mao immediately understood that this woman is the mother of the dead second egg.
"We saw Erdan's mental state seems not very good, so we were going to send her home so that nothing would happen. Unfortunately, she went crazy on the way, and we ran away after breaking away." Cai Qian continued.
"At the same time, when I saw Lu Zhishi's sneaky figure, I split with Cai Yuanbing. He went after the second egg and his mother. I'll see what Lu Zhishi was going to do." Qi Ying said.
They were originally divided into three groups. Lu Zhishi should have followed Fan Da to the outside of the village, but now they actually appeared in the village, of course they would be suspicious.
"Big Brother Qi, what did you see?" Zheng Quzhi's eyes lit up in an instant. When he met Qi Ye, he didn't see any special reaction from him?
"It's nothing, just look for a cottage as soon as he came back." Qi Yan spread his hands together, rather helplessly: "A big man, just find a solution to it, it's over. There is no one in the village anyway. It's really boring to run all the way back."
Zheng Quzhi had a black face and was really boring.
"Where's the corpse?" Wei Yan asked coldly, knocking on the table.
Hearing this, Cai Qian's face became serious, and he lowered his voice and said, "There is less meat on his face."
"Didn't he hang himself?" Zheng Quzhi's face changed slightly.
"Yes." Cai Qian nodded, "Furthermore, even if you put a stool, the height of a cow and his mother can't reach the beams and ropes."
So, is this really a mountain ghost harming people?
Zheng Quzhi stayed silent, touched his hand in his trouser pocket, and quickly pinched the two symbols.
"Mr. Wei, how did you save the bull from the mountain ghost?" After seeing no one else talking for a while, Zheng Quzhi asked Wei Yan.
"The goal of the mountain ghost is not a child." Wei Yan stretched out her slender fingers and pinched his eyebrows, and said lightly: "The child is alive or dead, and it is completely in the hands of the person the mountain ghost wants to kill."
Hearing this, Cai Qian frowned and said, "That is to say, Erdan died because the person the mountain ghost wanted to kill did not agree to exchange his own life, so Erdan died instead of that person. The reason why Niu is alive , Is it because the person the mountain ghost wanted to kill agreed to exchange his life?"
Wei Yan nodded.
"It's no wonder the mother is crazy." Zheng Quzhi shook his head, "Because of myself, I should feel guilty for letting my child die."
Qi Nie sneered, his dark face had some disgust: "Now that the child is important? If you really love your child, you shouldn't do bad things. If you do bad things, you should take the responsibility yourself, and let your children replace them because you are afraid of death. If you die, she can do it."
There was no emotion on Wei Yan's face. As always, he was as calm as ever, but said: "People are selfish."
