"In the following year, young men in the village died one after another, and the method of death was exactly the same every time."

"According to those who came to investigate, the young men who died died of sudden heart disease, and it is suspected that it was caused by evil spirits."

"That's true, but over the past year, there have been twenty or thirty monster hunters, if not a hundred, who came to investigate. Without exception, they all failed to find anything. On the contrary, one unlucky guy died in the village."

"And the cause of death of that man was the same as those of the young men who died in the village. They all died of sudden heart disease."

"After that, no one dared to come to the village to investigate."

"That's all I understand. If you two still have any questions, you can ask them freely. I won't hide anything I know."

Finished.

The middle-aged man stopped speaking and waited silently for Su Yan and Sister Zhou to respond.

Su Yan was silent for a moment, and then asked: "I would like to ask, village chief, why did you drive those women home earlier?"

After hearing Su Yan's question, the middle-aged man couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Aren't you talking about ghosts and monsters?

Why do you suddenly ask this irrelevant question?

Simply baffling!

The middle-aged man cursed in his heart, and then said with a normal face: "Because in the past few years, monster hunters have often come to the village to investigate incidents of monsters and monsters. During this period, there was also a nasty incident in which a young woman was molested."

"So, when I saw that the two of them looked familiar, I quickly asked them to go back to their respective homes and find their respective mothers to prevent bad incidents from happening again."

"Oh I got it."

Su Yan nodded without any doubt.

However, this is just a lack of suspicion on the surface, but in fact, full suspicion has arisen in my heart.

When a middle-aged man talks, he can use his peripheral vision to observe the other person's pupils and find that the other person's pupils fluctuate greatly.

Like erratic eyes, pupil fluctuation is one of the characteristics of lying.

So there is no doubt that what the middle-aged man said was a lie.

very quickly.

Su Yan asked again: "I see that your wife's legs seem to be a little uncomfortable. How did she get hurt?"

As soon as these words came out.

Not only was the middle-aged man a little confused, but Sister Zhou on the side was also confused.

I don't understand what happened to Su Yan.

Why are you suddenly asking these questions that have nothing to do with the demons and monsters incident?

Is it because your balls hurt from being idle?

Under Su Yan's gaze, the middle-aged man replied helplessly: "I fell while doing farm work when I was young. The medical conditions in the village were not good at that time, and the disease was left behind due to the lack of treatment."

"Oh, like this."

Su Yan nodded as always.

And in my heart, there was just as much doubt as before.

Because the middle-aged man lied again.

Su Yan asked him a question, and he lied once with trembling eyes.

If there were no problems in the process, no one would believe it.

"Cough...cough!"

Suddenly, a violent coughing sound came from the room in front again.

It sounded much more severe than the previous coughing fit, and it felt like I was really about to expire.

When the middle-aged man heard the sound, he immediately stood up and left his seat, and walked quickly into the room with an anxious look on his face.

Seeing this, Su Yan and Sister Zhou got up and followed them in without permission, wanting to see what was going on.

After entering the room.

What Su Yan saw was a young man lying on the bed coughing violently.

The young man's complexion was very pale, and he looked skinny and skinny, giving the impression that he looked like a sickly man who had been hungry since childhood.

"Village chief, what happened to your son's health?"

Su Yan looked at the anxious middle-aged man beside the bed and asked, having some doubts about the young man's physical condition.

He wondered if this might be related to the incident of demons and monsters in the village?

After all, the people who died in the village were all young men, and the son of the village chief lying on the bed at the moment was also a young man.

To be honest, it's hard not to think of this evil incident.

Hearing Su Yan's question, the middle-aged man sighed and said, "Oh, my son has been cursed."

"Curse? How do you say it?"

"It's the demon incident you want to investigate."

The village chief paused for a moment, then continued: "Except for the first person to die, those who will die of sudden heart disease in the future will have warnings before they die."

"My body will get worse inexplicably. At first I have no appetite, and then I will slowly start to cough every day until I am so weak that I can't get out of bed."

"Just like my son lying in the hospital bed, he feels like he will die soon."

When he said this, the middle-aged man did not have any scruples just because his son was here.

After all, this kind of thing is known to everyone in the village, and everyone knows it, so there is no need for white lies.

at this time.

Suddenly there was a cry outside the house.

"Let me go back, I want to go home!"

"Ooooooo, I want to go home!"

"You damn bastards! Let me go back quickly!"

Su Yan and Sister Zhou glanced at each other when they heard the sound, and then they both went out to find out.

When the village chief behind him saw this, he couldn't help but frowned, and then followed him out.

On the other hand, the village chief's wife, who was sitting on the edge of the bed taking care of her son, followed the crying coming from the window with a sympathetic face.

As I looked at it, I felt an urge to extinguish it.

But after listening to my son's cough on the bed, I gave up my impulsive thoughts after thinking about it.

...

outside the house.

Su Yan had just walked out of the earthen hut when he saw a young girl lying on the window sill crying in an earthen hut in front of her.

Behind her, there was a middle-aged man with a simple and honest appearance, and a gray-haired old woman who were constantly comforting her.

"Village chief, what happened to the young girl in their family?"

Su Yan looked at the middle-aged man beside him and asked.

The middle-aged man heard the sound and replied: "The couple in that family often quarreled. Whenever there was a quarrel, the woman would shout to go back to her parents' house. To be honest, it was quite annoying."

"No, I have to talk to them. They come here every once in a while. Do you want to live like this?"

After saying that, the man quickly walked towards the family's mud house.

After he left, a little girl's voice suddenly came from the left side of Su Yan: "Brother, that village chief is lying to you!"

Su Yan looked along the sound.

Then what he saw was a little girl who looked about the same age as Su Erke.

"Little sister, what do you say?"

Su Yan knew that the middle-aged man was lying, but he didn't expect that a little girl would tell him this out loud.

The little girl was about to speak when she heard the sound, but was suddenly interrupted by a cough in the room behind her.

"Cough...cough!"

The little girl listened to this violent coughing sound and said with a look of confusion on her face:

"Why is my brother cursed?"

"Why does this world have so much malice towards my brother?"

"God is so unfair."

As she spoke, a charming smile suddenly appeared on the little girl's face and she said, "I hope my brother can leave this malicious world as soon as possible..."
