Chapter 246 I Have Real Materials!(1/2)
Lin Xiaoyi pulled Chen Nianlu and followed her out with some curiosity.
At the corner of Xu Fangxin's house, where someone died a few days ago, there was an old man wearing a Taoist robe and gray-haired beard.
There is also a little Taoist priest next to him, who should be his apprentice.
Although some villagers were surrounded, they did not dare to get too close. Obviously, they were still a little afraid of this place, and some people were already afraid of it.
The Taoist priest in the field shook his head and held a wooden barrel in his hand. He didn't know what was inside, and he swayed around like shaking dice.
The Taoist priest closed his eyes slightly and was muttering something. Judging from his appearance, he was quite meaningful.
But Lin Xiaoyi still wanted to laugh when he saw it, and this was too unrestrained.
You can at least set up a table, light a few incense sticks, and draw some talismans...it looks at least a little real.
This made me want to laugh.
But looking at the villagers around them, their expressions were much solemn and nervous, and it seemed that they did not have any doubts.
When such a thing happened in the village, the villagers were completely involuntarily convinced of the "master".
From the bottom of their hearts, they hoped that someone could solve this problem, and subconsciously placed their hope on the "master".
"What a heavy evil spirit." The Taoist priest looked solemn.
When the villagers heard this, they became even more nervous and started talking.
For a moment, even the air seemed to be full of strange aura.
"Anyone who dies suddenly, especially the evil ones who die suddenly, is resentful and unwilling to leave the sun, so they turn into lonely ghosts, which is what we often call evil ghosts." The Taoist priest stroked his unfair beard and said to the villagers: "There is no one who dies here, and the anger is too heavy."
"Master, is it related to what happened in the middle of the night here?"
"Of course." The Taoist priest nodded: "All the reasons are because of him."
"Master, the person who happened a few days ago is a man, but why did the sound we heard at night be a woman?"
"What you hear is not the voice of a woman, but only like a voice of a woman." The Taoist priest had an unfathomable expression on his face.
"Master, is there any solution?"
"Of course." The Taoist priest smiled confidently: "Everyone just needs to wait for a moment."
After the Taoist priest said that, he waved his hand and the apprentice beside him presented the peach wood sword in his hand.
Then the Taoist priest took a golden talisman and put it on the tip of the peach wood sword, and began to do it with a word.
Lin Xiaoyi hugged his arms and watched the Taoist perform with great interest.
Just talking about his superficial skills, such as his extremely serious expression and "spells" that he whispered, are still OK, at least they can scare people.
Especially the sudden "pain" expression, it seems that he is really working hard to do his best.
After a while, he held up his peach wood sword and walked slowly in the alley.
Judging from the direction he was walking, he probably wanted to walk around the village.
At his walking speed, Lin Xiaoyi felt that it would take at least twenty minutes to come back.
Lin Xiaoyi thought for a while, then called Fang Yihan.
"Hey, what's the matter?" Fang Yihan's absent-minded voice came from the opposite side. Obviously, she should be busy with other things, and answering the phone was just an instinct.
"Ask you something." Lin Xiaoyi chuckled softly: "Do you know a murder that happened a week ago in Sanxi Village?"
The reason why Lin Xiaoyi asked this is because the general murder case is solved by the Public Security Bureau.
Even if the police station receives a report in this regard, it will usually be handed over to the branch above.
So Lin Xiaoyi knew that the case should be at the branch where Fang Yihan was, but I don’t know if she was responsible for it.
"I know! I'm watching this case now!" Fang Yihan was stunned for a moment: "How do you know about this case?"
"I happened to meet it."
"Is this a coincidence? I'm just about to go there again!" Fang Yihan was a little surprised.
"Then you'd better come quickly! There is a Taoist priest here. I think it's a liar, you can come and have a look."
"These "Taoist priests" like to use dead people to do such things. I'll go there immediately, you'll wait for me."
"What? You are here to handle the case. If I don't wait for you, will you not come?"
"Don't talk to me..."
After hanging up the phone with a smile, Lin Xiaoyi led Chen Nianlu back to the village committee door to see what was going on there.
The man is still persuading those who refuse to demolish, but the effect seems not to be very good.
As soon as Lin Xiaoyi passed by, he saw that the atmosphere was not right. The villagers who refused to demolish were very unfriendly to men.
He even pushed the man out of his mind. Fortunately, the other villagers pulled the two sides apart, otherwise he would feel like he would beat the man up.
Seeing this, the man had to retreat a little first. After seeing Lin Xiaoyi and Shen Nianlu, he walked towards them.
"It's hard to talk about..." The man sighed at Lin Xiaoyi, but his eyes couldn't help but fall on Shen Nianlu. This was his daughter.
"Can't the compensation be increased at all?" Lin Xiaoyi asked.
"I really can't add it anymore. I have tried my best to do this. To be honest, if it weren't for Fang Xin here, I wouldn't have any care. This place wouldn't have had the opportunity to demolish it."
The man shook his head and continued, "Besides, these people are mainly targeting me. Even if they add a little compensation, they will not give me face. You may not know how much they hate me."
“How annoying?”
The man was silent for a moment: "There is someone who wishes to kill me or not?"
Lin Xiaoyi felt helpless when he heard this.
The man sighed softly: "It's my fault for me. I was really not a human being back then... I cheated when Fangxin was pregnant with her second child, which indirectly caused the child to have a miscarriage."
After hearing what he said, Lin Xiaoyi could imagine how bad he was at that time.
No wonder Xu Fangxin never forgives him anymore, including some people in this village who hate him so much.
"Nianlu, do you still love your father?" The man squatted down and looked at the little luoli with loving eyes.
Chen Nianlu hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Mom said you are not good..."
"Mom is right. Dad was really bad before, but now Dad wants to make up for it, and Mom doesn't give her any chance."
Little luoli didn't seem to know what to say. She was actually a little confused about the entanglement between adults.
"Can you let your dad hug me?" the man whispered.
Chen Nianlu hesitated a little, but finally opened her arms.
The man gently hugged her, feeling a little relieved.
At this moment, the assistant behind him came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Boss..."
The man suddenly realized that he could not chat with his daughter here, and he still had to be busy with his important work!
"If Fangxin is really with you, please take good care of her and Nianlu for me..."
The man gently reminded Lin Xiaoyi, turned around and left with his assistant, and continued to talk to the villagers about the demolition issue.
Lin Xiaoyi could only sigh, if I had known today, why would it have been the first one!
After a while, Lin Xiaoyi returned to the alley at the scene of the incident. The Taoist priest was still "chanting spells and casting spells" around the village and had not come back yet.
After waiting for a few more minutes, the Taoist priest walked over with a whisper.
The little apprentice next to him immediately handed over a handkerchief, and the Taoist priest wiped his forehead, looking tired.
Not to mention, after all his troubles, he really made himself sweat.
This drama is really enough, otherwise how could it be intimidating!
"Master, is this... OK?" Someone was puzzled.
"It's not completely over yet." The Taoist priest shook his head: "This thing has too much hostility. I'm afraid it won't work once. I need to do it again tomorrow."
"Then will we...will he come out this night?"
"This..." The Taoist priest hesitated for a moment: "You only need to give me three days, and I promise to be able to subdue this thing."
"It will take three more days!" Some of the people in the crowd were not very satisfied.
"Then we will be scared at night."
The Taoist priest twisted his beard and sighed softly.
"Why not do this! The old Taoist brought some Buddhist beads and talismans here. Everyone just needs to wear Buddhist beads and stick them on their own doors. They have the effect of protecting safety and exorcising evil spirits. However, the number is not large, only more than forty copies."
When he heard that there were only more than forty copies, some villagers hurriedly surrounded him: "Master, how much does one copy cost?"
"The Buddhist beads and talismans together cost 200 yuan." The Taoist priest looked serious: "It has been shined, and it can ensure safety and drive away evil spirits."
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyi understood that this was his purpose today, but to use the psychology of these villagers to fool them, and then sell some so-called anti-evil items.
This totals eight or nine thousand yuan.
He also deliberately said that "there are only more than forty copies", giving the villagers a sense of psychological pressure that they can't buy if they come late", which is also a promotional method.
