Chapter 1474 Extra People
The two came to a remote corner, sat down, pretended to chat, turned on their mobile phones, and an unclear video began to play.
As the video progressed, Jiang Cheng quickly understood what Tang Qisheng meant by a strange combination of circumstances. The scene at the beginning of the video was the courtyard gate. From the shooting angle, it should be mounted on a tree or wall. The high position of the previous category, the camera is diagonally facing the courtyard gate, and it is condescending, just enough to take a picture of the corpse being carried out.
There were many people in the yard at that time, and it was noisy. Jiang Cheng guessed that Tang Qisheng took advantage of the chaos to arrange his mobile phone during that time.
The result was just as Tang Qisheng expected, the funeral procession carried the body and left through the courtyard gate. However, the body was wrapped tightly and covered with a layer of white cloth. Coupled with the crowd blocking it, it was impossible to see the body. Something went wrong.
But something unexpected happened soon after. The video suddenly shook violently. When the camera stabilized, the angle of view was pointed in another direction, which was the road leading to the village.
Jiang Cheng quickly realized that the phone had fallen from a high place. The reason was not yet clear for the time being. It might have been a gust of wind, or it might simply have been that it was not securely placed.
But this is not important anymore. Tang Qisheng drags the progress bar with his hand. There is still a long section behind, the picture is almost static, and there is no one on the road.
“We’re here.” Tang Qisheng let go of his hand.
This time the scene changed. A procession wearing sackcloth and mourning walked out from the limit of the camera. Jiang Cheng was now sure that the funeral procession was indeed coming back from the village, not from outside the village.
But this team gave Jiang Cheng a slightly strange feeling. They were all dressed in the same outfit, but... they just seemed different from the previous team.
As the team gradually approached, the uneasiness in Jiang Cheng's heart finally found its source. The sad atmosphere of the team was gone, replaced by a joy, on the faces of the few people walking at the front. They were all smiling, and the smiles from the heart looked numb at this moment.
This was a funeral, not a wedding. Jiang Cheng clenched his fingers. He didn't know what these villagers were happy about, but he could vaguely feel that all this might have something to do with them.
"Don't be distracted, the highlight is later."
Tang Qisheng reminded in a low voice, his fingers holding the phone trembling slightly, even though he already knew the content behind, he was still nervous.
Just as the funeral procession walked not far from the yard, the entire procession suddenly stopped, and then two people walked out from the back of the procession. The two behaved very intimately. One of them stroked the other's head, while the person being stroked Leaning your head on the other person's shoulder, you can feel the warmth through the screen.
The two of them don’t look like a couple, but more like a family relationship between elders and younger generations.
Before Jiang Cheng could think about it, the person who played the role of the elder walked away, left the team alone, and walked toward the village with his back to the camera, while the junior walked into the team, and He walked to the front of the team and took the white flag held by someone.
The sound of playing and beating continued, and the team continued to walk towards the yard. Now Jiang Cheng finally saw clearly that the person at the front of the team holding the white flag was Xiuling!
“It’s her!”
Jiang Cheng was stunned, and then Tang Qisheng pretended to understand what Jiang Cheng was thinking, and pulled the progress bar back to stop at the scene where Xiuling was in contact with the mysterious person.
Because the distance was far away, he could only roughly see the outline of the man. The more Jiang Cheng looked at him, the more frightened he became, because the body shape actually looked 9% like the dead grandpa.
"You see, I suspect that grandpa is not dead at all." Tang Qisheng gritted his teeth and spoke in a very low voice, but anyone could detect the uneasiness in his heart.
Jiang Cheng thinks that what he said is not completely right. Grandpa must be dead. People like them are not blind enough to mistake a dead person. There are two conclusions. Either that person is not Grandpa at all, or ...It’s grandpa who has come back to life!
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment before taking the phone and dragging the progress bar to the moment when the funeral procession was leaving. He stared at the video and counted each person, including those who carried the body, there were 29 people in total.
Then he turned back the video and counted the number of people in the team. Tang Qisheng said with a sullen face, "No need to count. I have counted 30 people. Including the guy who left, there are 30 people in total."
Funeral procession of 29 people He went out, but 30 people came back. The reason for this was extremely scary. Jiang Cheng put down his mobile phone, and a strange idea came to his mind. He thought that there were no so-called extra people, after all, those who were carried out were included. Master, the funeral procession is also 30 people.
This video is very important and must be notified to others, but Tang Qisheng was very vigilant. He refused to tell Li Bai this information unless it could be confirmed that she had no problem.
Tang Qisheng sent a message and received a reply soon. The reply was naturally his partner Zhu Jie. Zhu Jie has been staring at Li Bai during this period. According to Zhu Jie, the villagers' attention to Li Bai has only increased. It's almost to the level of caring. She is not allowed to do any dirty work. As soon as she picks up the tools, someone will do it for her immediately. She is the only one who has such treatment.
Even the villagers who were cleaning the yard in the distance were paying close attention to Li Bai. However, Zhu Jie also said that it was just the villagers who were acting strangely, but they did not find any major problems with Li Bai.
Li Bai's face was full of helplessness in response to the villagers' concern, but she did not dare to show too obvious rejection. After all, she had never encountered the situation where she turned around and stabbed someone with a knife.
Withdrawing his gaze, Jiang Cheng asked: "Have you tried shooting with a mobile phone?"
Tang Qisheng nodded cautiously, "I tried it, but I couldn't see anything. After all, I didn't take pictures of Grandpa's body before. Reaction, I think this road is not feasible. ”
Sensing the overtone of Tang Qisheng's words, Jiang Cheng glanced at him thoughtfully, "Have you thought of some way?"
Tang Qisheng is an expert in folklore and has performed well in previous tasks. Not bad, no one is more experienced than him in dealing with today's situation.
"This is barely a solution. I'm not sure if it's effective. They say that offering incense can connect the gods. The ashes left by burning incense to worship the gods can also make evil spirits appear. We can sprinkle the ashes on the ground in advance to lure Li Bai to step on it. If Of course it’s okay to leave footprints The problem is, if you can’t leave any footprints, or if you leave something else instead of a footprint, then..."
Tang Qisheng won’t talk about it here, as long as the meaning is reached, and he paid attention To Jiang Cheng frowned slightly.
Actually, Jiang Cheng doesn’t mean anything else. He simply doesn’t like the word seduction. Although his reason requires him to doubt everything, emotionally speaking, Li Bai is his companion and he doesn’t want anything to happen to her. . (End of this chapter)
