Chapter 44 The Beautiful Xiangxi (44)
"This pair of silver bracelets is a token of love between me and Pingping."
Wei Xun's voice trembled slightly, and he took out the two silver bracelets, his eyes reluctant to fall on them, and murmured: "Pingping returned it to me, but I know that she was helpless, and she still only had me in her heart. of."
Had no choice?
Miao Fangfei's expression moved slightly, but it didn't show on the surface. She looked at Ah Cheng with a sigh, and sighed: "You, alas, Pingping is getting married after all..."
"What kind of marriage is that for her!"
Cheng's voice suddenly became louder, but he stopped abruptly mid-sentence. There was a hesitant and fearful look on his face, as if he was afraid of something. In the end, he said no more, but solemnly handed one of the silver bracelets to Miao Fangfei, and solemnly said with a hint of sadness and hope:
"Sister-in-law Miao, thank you. If you can, please hide this silver bracelet in the pig's liver. Pingping will naturally know how I feel about her after seeing it."
Miao Fangfei took the silver bracelet. Ah Cheng gave her a melancholy smile, then turned and left. Miao Fangfei returned to the stove and continued processing the pig liver as if nothing happened, looking for an opportunity to tell Shi Tao and Xu Chen the news.
"Pingping got married out of helplessness, 'What kind of marriage is she doing?'"
Xu Chen studied these two sentences carefully and said with a serious expression, "Indeed, we still don't know who Pingping is going to marry."
"Asang Awen keeps his secrets secret."
Miao Fangfei nodded. When she exchanged intelligence with these two people yesterday, she found that these two people were obviously talkative about trivial matters in many parents' lives, but when it came to Pingping's marriage, they would only chatter. , saying that Pingping’s marriage is a major event for the whole village and must be carefully prepared. Miao Fangfei made many insinuations, and the two of them would stare at her with vigilant expressions.
"The person she is marrying is probably not a good one."
Shi Tao said, winking at the stove: "Do you want to bring this silver bracelet to Pingping?"
If they really want to do what Ah Cheng said, they have to make preparations while they can get access to pork liver now.
"A-Cheng will have more information. As expected, this project will be divided into different categories."
Xu Chen said calmly: "We need to spread this news and let Zhao Hongtu and others pay more attention."
Their conversation was intermittently, and once Supervisor Asang Awen looked over, they started cooking the liver in earnest again.
On the other side, when Wei Xun was leaving the village chief's house, he was called to the village chief's house. Through the bamboo curtain, looking in, I could only vaguely see the ups and downs of the quilt on the bed. The village chief was coughing non-stop. It was obvious that he was seriously ill and could not get out of bed. But no matter how old and weak his voice was, it still sounded strangely dangerous to human ears.
"A-Cheng, are you going to see Pingping again?"
"yes."
Wei Xun was too lazy to act at this time and simply responded neatly. Along the way, he thought back to his experiences along the way and Pingping's two diaries, and he had some new suspicions about her. So Wei Xun began to test, but when he responded in this tone, the village chief was not angry, just as Wei Xun expected.
"I know you like Pingping."
The village chief's voice sounded kind. He was still coughing, and his tone was helpless and regretful. He said slowly: "You and Aaron were born on the same day. In my eyes, you are just like my child. I have always regarded you as my own child." View."
"Pingping, Pingping likes you too. The only person she wants to marry is you. If it weren't for this, well, there's nothing she can do about it."
The village chief hesitated to speak, and gave guidance, as if he wanted Acheng to ask the question himself. But Wei Xun had already gotten the information he wanted from what the village chief just said. He didn't fall for the village chief's trick at all, and waved his hand loudly and forcefully: "Happiness is earned by oneself."
"As long as Pingping is happy, I will be happy. Village chief, you don't have to persuade me anymore."
After that, Wei Xun turned around and left. He heard the village chief coughing louder behind him, but no one stopped him. Wei Xun knew what was going on. He went all the way back to Acheng's house and connected Pingping's diary, Corpse Transformed into the Flying Fox King, Acheng and other information in his mind.
That day the corpse turned into a flying fox king, and the illusion that Pingping and Acheng eloped was probably right.
It's just that it's not necessarily Acheng who eloped with her.
Acheng's house is on the edge of Chebi Village. According to the tradition of Chebi Village, a man must leave his parents and build a new house before he reaches adulthood and can marry a wife. Cheng had always wanted to marry Pingping. He immediately built a house by the village as soon as he came of age. This location was actually not far from the cave in the back mountain where Pingping gave birth.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp."
As soon as Wei Xun entered the door, he heard the tender cries of chickens. Ah Cheng raised two cages of chickens, and the sight of the bright yellow and clean chickens made people happy. Wei Xun seemed to vaguely hear the sound of drooling in his head.
The tender chick really made the young fox's heart beat, but it might have been Wei Xun's previous misunderstanding of its dietary preferences that made it angry. The young fox held it in this time and did not say words like 'the master is hungry' to Ai Ai again.
Wei Xun, on the other hand, put the two cages of chickens on the table and used straw stalks to make the chickens chirp.
This person is really annoying!
"I've been thinking about why I am Cheng."
Wei Xun sat at the table, tapping his index finger rhythmically on the table. The tapping sound was very frequent, which coincided with Wei Xun's heartbeat. But if you are a person with excellent hearing and listen carefully, you will be surprised to find that there are two faint heartbeats in his body.
[Hatching countdown: 15:25:13]
"Miao Fangfei's project is directly related to crying marriage, but I am not."
Wei Xun muttered to himself, placing his two fingers together casually on the side of his neck, feeling for his pulse. If Wei Xun wanted to, he could even avoid crying marriage completely. Just use the reason that Cheng is too sad and doesn't want to see things and miss people. And looking at Miao Fangfei and the others, they probably thought he was an aborigine of Qiebi Village. The most important thing was that Wang Pengpai didn't find him immediately.
In other words, Wang Pengpai did not expect that Wei Xun would obtain Acheng's identity.
Everything has a reason. Wei Xun will not let Yan Yan think that Ping Ping has taken a fancy to him and insists on letting him be careful about his sweetheart. In other words, there is definitely an internal reason why Wei Xun will become Acheng.
The conversation with the village chief allowed Wei Xun to finally put together the last incomplete piece of the puzzle.
"is it you?"
Wei Xun pressed his fingers hard on the side of his neck, compressing the blood vessels there for a long time, which would make people feel dizzy. Wei Xun felt his heart beat faster and sinking, as if a sense of crisis came from the bottom of his heart, making him want to remove his fingers. Wei Xun Cong Shanruqi put down his hands, propped his head, and quietly felt the panic dissipate, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
"Got you."
After killing the corpse-turned-Flying Fox Queen, Wei Xun caused unexpected dangers by using the attraction experience ball. From then on, there was a new value [Hatch Value] in his attribute column.
Prevent it from hatching, or defeat it or kill it, and Wei Xun will be rewarded with the final attraction. But what exactly is this 'it' and where is it, the hotel did not remind me.
But now Wei Xun can confirm that 'it' is parasitic in his body. There are still fifteen hours before hatching. It is now 4:30 in the morning.
In other words, it will hatch around eight o'clock tonight.
"The corpse-turned-Flying Fox King has Aaron's soul in his body."
"The village chief wants Pingping and Aaron to get married."
"Pingping and Cheng eloped."
"Pingping was penetrated by Fanyang and gang-raped by the men in Qiebi Village on her wedding night."
All four of these can be true at the same time.
After Wei Xun obtained Acheng's identity, he knew that although this man was indecisive, he had no bad intentions and was sincere towards Ping Ping. If he really eloped with Pingping, it would be impossible for him to deceive her and not arrive after confirming the location, so that Pingping would be gang-raped by the villagers.
Unless he is trapped by something, or controlled by something.
Wei Xun should have finally confirmed this after finding more information, but because he replaced Acheng, the similarity between him and Acheng allowed Wei Xun to quickly lock in the target.
The Corpse Flying Fox King, or the cubs, eggs, etc. of the Corpse Flying Fox King.
Wei Xun has this in his body, and Acheng probably also has this in his body. It is because of this similarity that Wei Xun became Acheng.
"The village chief still wants to bring his son back to life."
Wei Xun said softly.
So the village chief chose Ah Cheng, who was born on the same day as Aaron and whose horoscope might be a bit special, as his target.
Ever since he knew that there might be a flying fox inside his body, Wei Xun had been wondering, how did it get in?
In the final analysis, he had only fought and touched the zombie flying fox king and drank its essence and blood. Perhaps this method of communication is contact, and since Cheng and Pingping grew up as childhood sweethearts, maybe Cheng has also touched the corpse-turned-flying fox king she raised. So there is an egg in Cheng's body, or something attached to Aaron's consciousness.
The village chief knew clearly that Cheng and Pingping had a secret meeting before getting married, but he did not stop it. If the conversation just now was really to Cheng, who cherishes Pingping, then Cheng would probably be more determined to elope with Pingping. Heart.
The eggs will hatch at eight o'clock tonight, so maybe Ping Ping and Cheng elope at eight o'clock tonight. However, when they arrive at the agreed place, Ping Ping is nervously waiting for her lover to arrive, but what is waiting for her is the 'controlled' Ah Cheng.
Wei Xun arranged everything properly and just waited for the situation to develop. He was playing with a dagger in his hand, Ping Ping's Blood Resentment Dagger, which could kill the person Ping Ping resented most.
Who is the person Pingping resents the most? The village chief, her brother Aaron, Acheng, or the entire Qiebi Village?
"Let's see the news about Miao Fangfei and the others."
* *
Miao Fangfei was covered in cold sweat and her face turned pale. The smell of pork liver was all over her body. After cooking the liver for so long in the kitchen, her whole body was almost soaked by the smell. Shi Tao was not much better than her.
"Hurry, be quick."
Miao Fangfei looked at the door warily from time to time, with an anxious expression. The pork liver was cooked earlier than they expected. In a hurry, Miao Fangfei exchanged news with Asang Awen while resting. They heard that the village chief was more seriously ill. Pingping He is filial and wants to get married as soon as possible so that he can celebrate his father's happiness. Everything might go ahead, which immediately made Miao Fangfei and the others nervous.
So the three of them took turns to lure Asang and Awen away, and the remaining people took the opportunity to stuff the silver bracelet into the pig liver. A complete set of pork liver is very large. When cut into four pieces, each piece is about the size of Shi Tao's palm. It is also boiled to a soft state and should be more than enough to fit into a silver bracelet. But when she finally took action, Miao Fangfei discovered something was wrong.
After the silver bracelet touched the pig liver, it turned black!
This pig liver is poisonous!
This discovery was incredible. Miao Fangfei tried it one after another and found that not only cooked and cut pork liver was poisonous, but also raw pork liver could turn silver jewelry black. The most bizarre thing was the pig liver just taken out of boiling water. , is also poisonous.
These pig livers are for Pingping and the whole village of Qiebi Village. How could they be poisonous? ?
Miao Fangfei's title of Novice Gu Po came in handy. She fed Banban a small piece of pig liver. After careful analysis, she found that the poison was not fatal and the dose was not large. It just made people weak.
Why is this happening?
"Maybe there are dangers in getting married that we don't know about."
After Miao Fangfei told Xu Chen Shitao about this matter, Xu Chen came up with an idea: "In order to prevent Pingping from resisting, I gave Pingping the drugged liver to eat, in order to better control her."
"But if all pig livers are poisonous, do people in Qiebi Village have to eat them too?"
Shi Tao didn't understand, but Miao Fangfei turned around, gasped, looked ugly, and reminded softly: "The Pingping in our reenactment of this scene is the ghost Pingping."
"Captain Miao is right. Let's look for it quickly. There may be a piece of non-toxic pig liver in it."
Xu Chen said: "Pingping is seeking revenge. She wants the villagers to repay the tragedy she has experienced to them over and over again. If on that day, Pingping's pig liver was poisonous and the villagers' pig liver was not poisonous, It’s time to do the opposite today.”
In other words, except for one piece of pig liver, all other pig livers are poisonous. Only this piece of non-toxic pork liver is the right choice to serve to Pingping when she is crying for the first time.
"Today at noon I was crying for my mother-in-law."
Miao Fangfei murmured that she and Shi Tao would play Ping Ping's mother this noon and would serve her the pig liver and listen to her cry about getting married. If they hadn't discovered that the pig liver was poisonous and had brought the poisoned pig liver over, Pingping might have thought that they were in the same group as the villagers.
Then their heads will click like paper figures cut by Pingping and fall to the ground.
"We don't have much time, let's find it quickly."
Miao Fangfei immediately said seriously: "If we can't find it, we have to stop Pingping from eating the pig liver at noon today."
It is best to find non-toxic pig liver. Preventing Ping Ping from eating the liver is only the last resort, because this is equivalent to destroying the ritual and will definitely be stopped or even attacked by the villagers of Qiebi.
There were four barrels of cooked pork liver and three barrels of uncooked liver. Finding the non-toxic piece among so many livers was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Shi Tao and Xu Chen took turns to lure Asang and Awen away, but after a few times each other became suspicious. Shi Tao and Xu Chen were helpless and deliberately caused disputes and conflicts, risking their lives to lure the two of them out again to buy time for Miao Fangfei.
Miao Fangfei finally lived up to expectations and found a non-toxic piece among the many pig livers, which further proved that Xu Chen's guess was correct.
"I'm going to find a way to tell other people about it."
At 9:30 noon, someone from Qiebi Village informed me that the wedding time had been advanced. The first cry was at 10 a.m., the second was at 3 p.m., and the third was at 8 p.m. The original one-and-a-half-day wedding ceremony was condensed into one day.
This gave Miao Fangfei and the others an ominous premonition.
"Be careful."
Xu Chen solemnly said that the only ones left in the kitchen were Miao Fangfei, Shi Tao, and Asang Awen, who were going to participate in the first cry. He could not stay any longer and was leaving.
"A-Cheng will have more clues."
Miao Fangfei warned that the silver bracelet sent by Acheng was found to be poisonous in pig liver. Miao Fangfei believed that the final solution to this project was definitely related to Acheng. Since pig liver is poisonous, the chickens that Xu Chen and the others will use, and the fish that Wang Pengpai and the others will use, might also be tampered with.
"Take care."
Xu Chen, Pingping and the others were separated, and everyone felt heavy in their hearts. Crying to marry earlier, their strategy also needs to change. Originally, Xu Chen wanted to destroy the wedding or protect it. In fact, it had little to do with them. After all, the third time to cry to marry was the end of the journey. As long as he survived three times of crying, Just marry.
But now that they have changed like this, they are bound to experience what happened after the crying marriage.
That is Pingping getting married.
In this way, whether Pingping elopes or gets married normally will have a serious impact on them.
Xu Chen walked all the way back, maybe it was the wedding ceremony that was coming soon. Most of the people in the village were beaming, walking in a hurry, and they were all busy. After Xu Chen returned to the house, he found that only Xu Chen and Yu Hean were there. The native of Qiebi Village who was monitoring them left, saying he was going to prepare for a banquet.
"Go, tell Hongtu and the others about this."
Xu Chen immediately knew that this was a good opportunity for the team to communicate.
Sure enough, the natives of Qiebi Village who were in Wang Pengpai's house were not there either.
"You said you communicated with Acheng?"
Wang Pengpeng rubbed his chin.
"Yes."
Xu Chen told Wang Pengpai and others about the poisonous silver bracelets and pig livers, which made Yu Hean and others pale when they heard the thrills.
"Then go find Acheng. Next, the next thing is that I will cry."
Lin Xi was anxious, biting her nails nervously. It was still more than five hours before her mother-in-law cried at three o'clock. Seeing that Miao Fangfei and the others were called up to work at half past four, and her mother-in-law cried at ten o'clock, there were more than five hours in between. . Looking at it this way, it might be their turn to cook chicken soon.
"We can't all go, leave a few people to pay attention to Team Miao's situation."
Xu Chen said that it was very important for Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao to know the process of crying marriage from them. At the end of the discussion, Zhao Hongtu and Hou Feihu stayed behind, ready to support the Miao team at all times. Xu Chen, Yu He'an, Lin Xi and Wang Pengpai walked towards Acheng's residence on the edge of Qiebi Village.
* *
Miao Fangfei carried the pig liver hidden with a silver bracelet and walked towards Pingping's new house with Shi Tao, Asang and Awen with a smile on her face. The euphemistic and lingering, melodious and melodious suona sound has already sounded, and it is the song "Farewell Mother". The people in Qiebi Village met on the road are all wearing the national costumes of the grand festival. Different from the general Dong people, the Qiebi Village people's Most of the costumes are black and white.
It is said that in the past, they guarded the tomb of the chieftain king and were never allowed to wear colorful clothes. Over time, it became the tradition today. Although everyone had festive smiles on their faces, looking at the monotonous black and white clothes for a long time made people dizzy. Shi Tao even had the illusion that the people from Qiebi Village who were walking around them were all paper figures.
There are a lot of things that cannot be thought about at all, and it makes people’s hair stand on end if they think about it even a little bit. Asang and Awen looked back from time to time, with malicious intent in their smiles, as if they still remembered the conflict between Shi Tao and them.
Shi Tao took a deep breath and saw Miao Fangfei looking at him worriedly out of the corner of his eye, so he smiled reassuringly.
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there is only this last trembling left. I have to push through with all my strength.
"Mom——"
As soon as I entered Pingping's house, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet, as if all the lively suona music had faded away. Only if you listen hard can you hear the slightest remnant, but the reverberation is vague, making it even more eerie and terrifying.
Shi Tao felt a chill coming from the bottom of his heart as soon as he entered the room. He shivered, lowered his head and walked forward until he entered Pingping's boudoir. Pingping was sitting on the bed, and Shi Tao could only see the small and exquisite black and white embroidered shoes on her feet.
"Tears are dripping from my chest, mother, my daughter is reluctant to leave home."
Choking and crying sounded, and Pingping's singing was different from what Shi Tao had imagined, and it was unexpectedly sweet. In front of the low table beside the bed, Awen and Asang were already singing duet with Pingping.
Taking advantage of the time, Miao Fangfei quickly looked at the furnishings in Pingping's house. Compared with the quick glimpse before entering the scenic spot and passing into coma, Pingping at this moment was completely different from the ghost Pingping in Miao Fangfei's impression. She was wearing a black and white wedding dress, and the plain clothes showed her pure and extremely pure beauty, like fresh lotuses after the rain, her clear eyes were soaked in tears, and they were moist and translucent.
There was just a slight frown between her brows, as if there was sadness in her heart, but this sadness made her even more pitiable. Seeing that Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao were still standing, Pingping stretched out her hand and pulled them to sit down. At this moment, Shi Tao subconsciously wanted to hide, but he couldn't avoid Ping Ping's cold hand. It was hard to imagine that there was such a powerful force in the thin wrist. Shi Tao only felt that he was being held down and sat down.
There was a cold ring around his wrist, and Shi Tao didn't dare to touch it. There was still a stiff smile on his face, and he was still frightened. I don’t know whether this is Li Gui Pingping’s power or Pingping’s own power. If Pingping is really born with supernatural powers, then no wonder the people in Qiebi Village had to drug her in advance.
"The mountains are high and have their tops, and the oceans are deep and have their bottoms. The love between parents is incomparable."
Pingping sang sadly and choked up, expressing her gratitude for her mother's kindness in giving birth. Next, the 'mother' should cut off the pig liver and lightly apply it on the newlywed's lips to show that she will always be her mother's darling. I wish her that after she gets married, she will be harmonious and beautiful with her husband, and she will be her husband's darling. .
But inside this pork liver is Ah Cheng’s silver bracelet!
Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao looked at each other, and Shi Tao took the lead in picking up the knife, preparing to cut the pig liver. But Miao Fangfei cleared her throat and sang: "Daughter, as long as you can be happy, motherhood will be happy."
This was supposed to be the fourth verse, about feeding Pingping pig liver, but Miao Fangfei moved it forward!
"Mom, I hope you can win the heart of a loved one and stay together forever. My daughter, your eyes are as bright as stars, and you will be able to see lovers clearly."
If Miao Fangfei sang the lyrics in advance, Asang and Awen would just have a blank face and turn to look at her. When Miao Fangfei sang the next two lines of highly suggestive lyrics composed by herself, a dangerous and cold atmosphere suddenly filled the bodies of Asang and Awen!
Their faces became flatter and flatter, like paper dolls. The originally festive makeup on their faces looked as terrifying as ghost makeup on the paper dolls. As if a gust of wind blew by, Asang and Awen floated in front of Miao Fangfei, and the sharp knives used to cut pork liver in their hands stabbed Miao Fangfei hard in the heart!
* *
"Let the crying begin."
Over there, Wei Xun, who was entertaining Xu Chen and others at home, suddenly raised his head and looked melancholy out the window in the direction of Pingping's new house. His voice trembled slightly and he said to himself:
"When Pingping sees the silver bracelet, she will definitely understand what I mean."
"A-Cheng, we all understand how you feel about Pingping."
Wang Pengpai said, his tone seemed to be comforting, but his gaze on Acheng was extremely sharp, and no small movement could escape his gaze.
Under the pressure of such gaze, anyone with a slightly inferior quality of mind would avoid him, but Acheng just smiled at him absentmindedly and murmured:
"Sister Wang also understands whether I am really too close to Pingping. She is about to get married, so this is not good."
"Don't worry about these things. Pingping is getting married, so you should prepare something for her."
Lin Xi spoke anxiously, staring at the chicken cage on the table with burning eyes. If he didn't still have some sense, he would really want to take the cage and take a look.
After all, it’s time to cry for the second time, and the ingredient for the second time I’m crying is chicken!
"Yes, I prepared this, but it's a pity that I can't use it."
Ah Cheng sighed, caressed the chicken coop, and said to himself: "Before the bride gets married, it has always been a tradition for the groom to prepare the chicken for her."
A cub is a chick that has just left the hen and can live independently. It is prepared by the man and given to the woman before the wedding. It encourages the girl to leave her parents and live independently like a chicken that leaves the hen.
Pingping is eighteen years old this year and has reached the age of marriage. She originally agreed to marry Acheng, so Acheng began to prepare carefully for divorce early on. Who knows...
"Yes, Cheng, you and Pingping have a close connection, but she wants to marry..."
Xu Chen hesitated to speak, but it was actually a test. They still don't know who Pingping is going to marry, but logically, as a Qiebi villager, they should know about it. So you can't ask openly, you can only test.
Sure enough, Acheng took the bait and followed his words and said sadly: "But Pingping is going to have a ghost marriage, to marry her dead brother Aaron."
"hiss!"
Yu Hean took a breath of air and managed to cover his mouth in time to avoid screaming. Xu Chen gave him and Lin Xi a stern look, warning them not to be exposed. Acheng was simply immersed in sadness, and seemed not to notice the strangeness of Yu and An, but still murmured to himself:
"Pingping is such a good girl, but for the sake of tradition, she wants to get married. How can the village chief give up? Pingping is his only child now."
"Pingping is a good girl, and good girls should be cherished."
Wang Pengpai said with a hint: "I don't think Pingping is willing either, but I have no choice but to say, Acheng, you and Pingping are a match made in heaven."
"Pingping, Pingping."
After hearing what he said, Acheng trembled all over, his lips trembled, and he repeated: "If I, Pingping, we can be together, if, but, tradition..."
"If a tradition has to be realized at the expense of other people's lives, then there is no need for it to exist."
Xu Chen tentatively asked, but Acheng gave him a strange look and shook his head: "Aunt Xu, you can't say that. Our Qiebi Village exists to protect the traditions of generations."
"But, that's Pingping."
As soon as these words came out, Acheng trembled all over again. He seemed to be struggling with conflicts, and his expression kept changing. Finally, he slumped against the back of the chair, as if in collapse, and his voice was hoarse: "Yes, Pingping, That’s Pingping.”
"Grandma Xu, I have a favor to ask of you."
Cheng's eyes fell on the chicken coop on the table and he murmured: "If, if Pingping is still willing to accept my Li Niang chicken, if she is still interested in me, then I..."
Ah Cheng hesitated to speak, but his eyes became firm. Xu Chen saw his changes in his eyes. Without further words, he winked, picked up the chicken coop on the table, and left with Yu Hean and the others.
"Pingping is getting married in the dark!"
After leaving Acheng's house and no other villagers around, Lin Xi said in shock:
"She should marry her dead brother Aaron!"
"The art of driving away corpses is passed down from male to female, but the head of Qiebi Village taught this skill to his only daughter Pingping."
Xu Chen frowned as he read the words on the journey introduction: "It turns out that the village chief Qiebi had a child, but he died."
"Many secret techniques are like this, and eventually they are gradually lost."
Wang Pengpai said: "It seems that this secret technique of exorcising corpses is secretly passed down by the village chief."
If Pingping and his brother were still alive, perhaps in the end, in order to ensure the purity of their bloodline, Pingping would have had incest with his brother and sister.
"But Pingping's brother is dead?"
Yu He'an was puzzled: "Just, even if you get married, there is no way to continue the bloodline, right?"
"Don't forget, Pingping was pregnant with a child."
Lin Xi said nervously: "Maybe this is how the ghost fetus came about."
"No, Pingping gave birth to a normal child."
Xu Chen corrected: "I said during the second attraction that Pingping gave birth to a normal fetus, but her father faked it as fetal meat and staged a feast of fetal meat."
"It's edible and has a physical body. It's definitely not a ghost fetus."
Yu and An were confused: "How could Pingping give birth to a normal child?"
"A Cheng wants to elope with Ping Ping."
Xu Chen didn't answer the question, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Tell me, in the real history, did Pingping elope with Acheng?"
"After Pingping became pregnant, she fled to a cave in the back mountain to give birth. If no one helped her, it would be difficult for Pingping to support herself as a pregnant woman."
Xu Chen whispered: "A Cheng's house is at the edge of Qiebi Village, closest to the cave."
"Are you saying that on the night of the wedding, Ping Ping actually eloped with Acheng, and since Acheng was the groom, the child in her belly was also Acheng's?"
Lin Xi still felt something was wrong: "How can you return to the village to give birth to a child after you have eloped?"
"The elopement was caught and brought back."
Yu He'an said: "I heard that something like this happened in the village next to ours. The bride eloped with someone. When she came back, she was pregnant and had to be locked up at home. I heard that she was locked up for the rest of her life and people went crazy. It’s so miserable.”
The more feudal and closed the place, the more severe the oppression on women. Once such a thing as eloping and having a wild child is discovered and the woman is found, it is conceivable what tragic things will happen.
Yu Hean said it politely, but Xu Chen still felt that something was wrong. It seems that Pingping is also willing to get married and continue the tradition. In this case, there is no need to be so cautious about poisoning pig liver. Pingping seems to be a very sensible and responsible good girl.
"Brother Wang, what do you think?"
Xu Chen really couldn't figure out the point of drugging, and always felt that there was some crucial clue that he hadn't found.
"We'll wait and see when Team Miao and the others come back."
Wang Pengpai said, Xu Chen was right. Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao can definitely bring back the first-line information. After all, now they can't get close to Pingping and can only watch Miao Fangfei and the others.
I don’t know what happened to Miao Fangfei and the others.
"Did Brother Wang think of something?"
While Xu Chen was worried about Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao, he was also keenly aware that since leaving Acheng's house, Wang Pengpai seemed to be silent and deep in thought. Xu Chen wondered if Wang Pengpai noticed something from Acheng's words that he didn't discover?
"let me think again."
Wang Pengpai muttered, and sure enough, Xu Chen had a plan in his mind and stopped disturbing Wang Pengpai. When he returned to the house where they lived, Xu Chen didn't care to think about what Wang Pengpai was thinking.
Because Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao were covered in blood and were unconscious in bed!
Xu Chen and others hurried over to take a look and saw Hou Feihu holding a basin and Zhao Hongtu treating Miao Fangfei and the others' wounds. Seeing that Hou Feihu and Zhao Hongtu also had a lot of blood on their bodies, Xu Chen and Yu Hean took over their work. Lin Xi rarely took the initiative to pour water for them.
"The first cry is over."
Hou Feihu drank the water in the glass in one gulp and said with a serious expression: "Team Miao and the others have brought important information."
As he spoke, he pointed to the blood-stained white paper on the table. It seemed to be a paper knife with a deformed handle, and there were vague words on it. Xu Chen didn't take action. Like Zhao Hongtu and others, they all waited for Wang Pengpai to get it. Now Wang Pengpai seems to be a person with the same prestige in the team as Team Miao. He is thoughtful and observant. All clues like this are shown to him first.
But Wang Pengpai didn't take action, as if he was still deep in thought. Zhao Hongtu reminded him in confusion, but Wang Pengpai frowned and said, "Wait a minute, I've thought of the key point."
"We just went to Acheng's place and got important clues."
Xu Chen explained, picking up the bloody paper knife on the table, but he was also curious in his heart.
What key information did Wang Pengpai think of? Not even looking at the bloody paper knife?
While thinking, Xu Chen unfolded the blood-stained paper knife, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
"this--"

On the other side, Acheng did not rush to move after Xu Chen and the others left. Instead, he felt sad and walked around the room again, as if anxious and nervous. From time to time, he looked at the door, as if waiting for Xu Chen and the others. news.
After two circles like this, Acheng exhaled heavily, as if he had made up his mind. He returned to his room and changed his clothes. He changed clothes slowly, as if he was still conflicted.
"Yes, how can Pingping get married in the underworld?"
He said to himself, with a determined expression: "I really love Pingping, and I can't see her like this. Village Chief, I want to go to the Village Chief to make it clear!"
After saying that, Ah Cheng left home resolutely and hurried to the village chief's house.
The above is what Wang Pengpai saw.
Wang Pengpai didn't really leave, it was Wang Pengpai's dummy who left with Xu Chen and others. The real Wang Pengpai has used his title to make himself invisible, observing Ah Cheng's behavior.
"It seems fine."
Wang Pengpai didn't miss anything. He even followed Acheng to watch when he was changing clothes. But from beginning to end, Acheng didn't behave at all strangely.
"But I just feel like there's something wrong with it."
After experiencing many journeys, Wang Pengpai trusts his intuition even more. He hasn't found Bingjiu yet, which means that either Bingjiu has left, or the real Bingjiu has a different personality from the past information.
Wang Pengpai put aside all his inherent impressions of Bingjiu and observed Ah Cheng, and found that compared to other people in Qiebi Village, this man was much cleaner.
Perhaps this was what made Wang Pengpai feel strange.
Seeing that Acheng was going to find the village chief, Wang Pengpai followed him slowly and did not stop him. He is still not completely sure of Acheng's identity. The fact that he went to find the village chief may be something that actually happened in history.
If Pingping didn't elope, then she shouldn't have had a normal child.
If Pingping and Acheng eloped, the people of Qiebi Village should not keep her child after retrieving her, or even use it as special fetal meat.
Wang Pengpai suspected that Pingping had indeed eloped with Acheng, but his brother Aaron had fallen in love with Acheng. Pingping's pregnancy was planned by the village chief Qiebi. This child is not only Ah Cheng's child, but also Aaron's child. As it was eaten as fetal meat, Wang Pengpai also wondered whether the child was eaten by the village chief Qiebi, or...
Eaten by Aaron?
By eating fetal flesh, Aaron can completely take over Ah Cheng's body?
Or to go one step further, the head of Qiebi Village has a special secret method for exorcising corpses. What if Aaron is not buried after death, but is turned into a zombie by the head of Qiebi Village who loves his son? Maybe eating this special fetal meat can restore Aaron's yang?
Experienced and outstanding travelers have extremely divergent thinking and can discern the truth from clues. What Wang Pengpai lacks now is concrete evidence.
Ah Cheng's visit to the head of Qiebi Village may be the key to his being possessed by Aaron.
So Wang Pengpai followed without hesitation.
When Wei Xun was changing clothes, he deliberately delayed the time to brush the yellow value, causing the live broadcast room to be blocked again. Ever since he entered the project, Wei Xun has been counting the time, and his live broadcast room has been blocked.
Although in this way, when Xu Chen and others had a secret conversation with him, their live broadcast room might also be blocked, and the viewers outside would probably guess that he was Acheng. But it can be delayed for a while. Generally speaking, the shielding still has more advantages than disadvantages for Wei Xun.
Now Wei Xun hurriedly walked towards the village chief's house, carrying a little tail behind him.
It was clear that Wang Pengpai had left with Xu Chen and the others, but the young fox reminded Wei Xun that someone was watching him.
Especially when Wei Xun was changing clothes, the man was still watching. Of course it shouldn't be Pingping who is so perverted. Moreover, Pingping always felt a cold breeze when she looked at people, but Wei Xun didn't feel that way now.
Wei Xun was almost certain that the real Wang Pengpai had not left, but had been following him and observing him.
But this was unexpected by Wei Xun. He also went out of his way to keep his clothes clean and tidy, which was subtly different from the people in Qiebi Village.
Wang Pengpai suspected him, but he couldn't confirm it was him immediately, and he wouldn't touch him immediately. After all, Wei Xun's current identity was Acheng, a relatively important role in this attraction.
According to Wang Pengpai's character, it is most likely that he will follow him and observe. From Wang Pengpai's behavior, Wei Xun speculated that he probably did not want to kill Bingjiu immediately, but planned to take Bingjiu away.
Of course, this kind of guess is not accurate. Maybe Wang Pengpai is waiting to kill him. But Wei Xun didn't care, this tightrope-like thrill was more exciting to him.
Especially after Wang Pengpai hid his figure and still did not attack him immediately, Wei Xun confirmed his judgment.
If Wang Pengpeng wants to take Bingjiu away, he will not see him die here.
Wang Pengpai who was following behind was just a bodyguard picked up for nothing!
Wei Xun immediately thought of a hundred ways to use Wang Pengpai, and then happily took him to the village chief's house.
With such useful bodyguards, it would be such a waste not to do something dangerous!
