Chapter 1098 Baby
The village chief stopped before he finished speaking because he noticed that several people inside could not help but glance at Jiang Cheng. What was even more bizarre was that Jiang Cheng was looking at another person. One person, Abiao.
Even as fierce as Abiao, he suddenly fainted at this moment, and his throat rolled up and down a few times.
Jiang Cheng looked away, "Okay, everyone, don't look at Brother Abiao. From now on, we must work together to complete tonight's task. The gift of marriage is obviously a lie. "Jiang Cheng became excited, "This is a trick to drive a wedge between our brothers. We must not fall for it!"
Fat Man: "..."
Du Moyu: "..."
Chen Hao: "..."
Lei Mingyu: "Oh..."
A Biao: "Brother Jiangcheng is right. Ah, please don’t be fooled!”
Jiang Cheng turned around, patted A Biao on the shoulder, and said in a reliable and sincere voice: “Brother A Biao, as long as I am here, it is impossible to watch. The second situation occurs.”
Abiao stared at Jiang Cheng's face and suddenly felt that this person didn't seem so annoying anymore.
Yu Chengmu sneered and interrupted Jiang Cheng's performance. His eyes swept over the faces of A Biao and Jia Jinliang, seeming to be surprised when these people got so close to Jiang Cheng.
An indescribable sense of crisis came to my mind, but it disappeared in just a moment.
In this mission, he had the upper hand, especially towards the end, the higher his chance of winning. As long as Jia Jinliang and Abiao did not completely fall to the opponent, he was not worried.
Anyway, in the end, these people... will all die, without exception.
As for the watchman's plan, he probably understood it. It was a good show of changing the situation, but it was a pity... that he met this real gold-picking captain.
But there is one more thing he wants to ask clearly. According to his speculation, the village chief still has one most important thing that he has not explained, "Old man." Yu Chengmu pretended to ask casually: "That's all in the letter Did you mention the Wu family mansion?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the village chief nodded repeatedly, "This old master, you are really amazing, how come you know everything?"
" Indeed, the Wu family mansion was mentioned,” the village chief added. "The watchman's letter said that you are asked to go to the mourning hall where you stayed vigil on the first night when you first arrived, which is the Dahe Empress Temple. You will set off from there tonight, and then the watchman's coffin will be parked at There.”
"By the way, the letter also stated that his coffin does not need to be carried by the masters. You just need to ensure that the coffin reaches the Dushui River safely. Remember, do not let the coffin be opened on the way." The village chief lowered his voice, his expression Mysterious.
This sentence made the faces of several people in Jiangcheng change slightly. It was true that the amount of information was quite large.
The first question is, they don’t need to carry the coffin, then...who will carry it?
And the coffin stayed in the Wu family compound. Since they came to this world, except for the watchman who didn't know whether he was a human or a ghost, no second person has entered the Wu family compound.
Second question: The village chief said that the coffin must not be opened on the road, but not that the coffin must not be opened on the road. The difference between these words reflects completely different things.
Don’t open the coffin. It definitely means not letting them open the coffin. The subject is them who are delivering the coffin.
Rather than letting the coffin be opened, the subject is the coffin, but the coffin contains a corpse, a dead person. How can a dead person open the coffin? Isn't that a corpse deception?
Or... the watchman is not dead at all. He is hiding in the coffin and has his own plan?
Jiang Cheng thinks this is not impossible and has to guard against it.
The question that Jiang Cheng thought of was also thought of by others. After organizing the conversation, Chen Hao was the first to speak, "Village chief, besides us, is there anyone else here tonight to send off the watchman on his last journey? "
"Are you from the village?" Du Moyu asked.
If the village chief answers that they are villagers, then these villagers will most likely be other evil masters who cooperate with the watchman. Perhaps we can take this opportunity to catch them all.
At least, we need to figure out where these people come from and what their final plan is.
But the village chief's answer made them feel cold in their hearts. They saw the village chief shake his head and said in the same puzzled tone: "I don't know. I haven't heard that anyone in the village is going to send the watchman. These years He was used to being a loner, and I had never heard of him having any friends. "
Later, the village chief's throat rolled twice, and he suddenly lowered his voice, "And... you know, people in our village usually don't go to places like the Wu Family Mansion. "
The fat man caught the village chief's sore foot and immediately turned against him, "You don't dare to go, and then you ask us to go, your conscience is greatly damaged! ”
The village chief shrank his neck when he heard this and murmured in a low voice, "But we gave the money. You were very happy when you collected the money. You even said that it was all covered by you. I still keep the letters back and forth."
"Okay." Jiang Cheng cut off this useless conversation. He suddenly remembered one thing, which was the paper figures he had seen in the warehouse of the paper maker's house.
Back then, those paper figures carried several large coffins from the Dahe Empress Temple to the Dushui River, and finally returned to the papermaker's home.
If the person who comes tonight is not a person of Yin Xing, then it is probably these paper people!
It’s the paper man again... The exaggerated dress and lifeless face of the paper man appeared in Jiang Cheng’s mind. Now he has left behind the sequelae of these things made of paper.
The most important thing is that the playboy named Lu Jianli has a face exactly like his own.
"Marriage as a gift..." Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth and wondered why he hated this name so much.
There was a trace of confusion on the village chief's face. He opened and closed his mouth. Seeing his confusion, Lei Mingyu waved his hand and told him to say what he had to say and hurry up if he had any nonsense.
"There is something I don't know whether I should say or not." The village chief looked embarrassed, "Anyway, I think all the masters need to be careful tonight, it may...may be dangerous."
Jia Jinliang couldn't help but sneer, wondering if the village chief was blind. They almost lost one person every night. The danger was obvious, and anyone who could count knew it.
"I'll tell you what I have to say. Masters, there has been a rumor in our village for a long time. Not long after we built the Dahe Empress Temple, people could often hear crying late at night." After a pause, the village chief emphasized. , "It was a woman's cry. It was very sad. It came from the Wu family mansion. But at that time, there was no one in the Wu family mansion."
"The villagers couldn't control it. You can talk about anything. Some people say that the soul of Lady Dahe is still there, and others say that there is a treasure hidden in the house, a treasure that Lady Dahe can miss."
"Dahe. The empress cried because she couldn't find the treasure." A trace of mystery flashed across the village chief's face, "With that treasure, you can be safe."
Yu Chengmu's eyelids twitched. Tomorrow is Saturday, I won’t go to work. Do you understand what I mean?
