Chapter 161 The Living Sacrifice
The Qian family's mansion is so numerous that it occupies a much larger area than a sandwich teahouse. It is not very feasible to blow up the Qian family's house to the sky.

But simply razing the pond to the ground is much simpler. Just two explosive packs are enough. Even if the explosion and shock force cannot raze the pond to the ground, it will definitely blow away all the water in the swamp.

When it comes to explosive packs, there is definitely no possibility of homemade homemade explosives. It still requires a certain threshold. First of all, the ratio of gunpowder is a big problem, and then there is the issue of the source of materials.

Therefore, controllable explosive packages are almost always in the hands of the military.

After all, no matter how simple the folk customs are, they can only spray each other with homemade guns. Similar to the gun, it is commonly known as explosives, because the sound is really loud, but there is only one shot. Compared with the lethality, its deterrent effect is more prominent, and it mainly focuses on one If it doesn't kill you, it will scare you to death.

Anyway, I have never heard of villagers fighting at the head of the village and rushing up carrying explosives.

Back to the army.

Sunjiawan has extremely rich coal reserves. For such an important place, there must be a garrison nearby. However, in order to avoid some unpleasant things happening, the old commander strictly ordered the garrison to be at least twenty miles away from the mine.

By the time the two brothers carefully carried two explosive bags and rushed to Sunjiawan, it was already completely dark.

What?
Why did the garrison give explosive bags?
Not given.

Just take it directly.

Don't ask, it's a top secret.

Anyway, the two brothers brought the things back.

The key equipment has been acquired, and all that remains is the detailed direction of the operation.

Time has passed, and there is basically no time to repair. The discussion of the plan can only be completed on the road. After returning to the inn and getting a complete set of equipment, we can start taking action.

But Lao Kang's brain was still confused from beginning to end.

Looking at the explosive bag in Dui's hand, he thought about it but couldn't figure out why he agreed to Sanyuan's crazy idea.

Be good, you will definitely eat as much as you want!

Hmm. The style is very ternary.
"When will we do it?"

Zhao Sanyuan looked at the waning moon in the night sky, "At the Yin hour and the third quarter, take action when Yin and Yang are about to alternate. No matter what the ghost is, it will stay in the pond to absorb the Yin energy, and people's mental state is the sleepiest at Yin hour. Even if someone is alert, our success rate will be much higher."

There are priorities.

Although the Onmyoji has not shown up so far, the two brothers cannot allow other evil spirits to cause chaos.

When things go awry, there must be monsters. How could the Qian family, which is usually a quiet family, raise ghosts?

"When the time comes, Lao Kang, climb over the wall and touch the edge of the pond. Pull the wire and throw the explosive bag directly in. But don't trip over the rocks. I don't want to visit your grave next year."

"No! From what you said, why don't you go?"

Zhao Sanyuan nodded slightly, "I sneaked into Qian's house in advance. Regardless of whether Qian Laishun is the head of the family or not, I believe he must know something. When we left today, the deputy village chief's wife looked as if she was at a funeral. So we need to know whether the Qian family is behind all this, or if there is another culprit."

Although we are just preparing for a rainy day, we must do our best to avoid things like the Li family's old house happening again.

If it's just the Qian family that is causing trouble, I'm afraid there is a cult like Yiguandao behind it.

Kang Muang's right eyelid kept twitching. Even though he had made a prediction in advance, he still didn't have much confidence in his heart. "I understand the truth, but if there is too much noise, we are very likely to be exposed. Originally, the enemy is hiding from me. If the enemy It would be bad if we were secretive, especially since the Onmyoji have not shown up so far, and we don’t know what they are capable of.”

"Why don't you farm when you hear the cries of crickets? It's better for them to come when they hear the noise, so that I don't have to go looking for it."

As an absolute activist, Zhao Sanyuan will definitely not go there overnight as long as he thinks that various factors can be acted upon.

Be it reckless or crazy.

Anyway, he understands the principle of long nights and frequent dreams.

I would rather act quickly and take risks than be afraid of wolves and tigers later and miss opportunities by hesitating.

ugly time.

Wan Lai was silent.

Midsummer nights are oppressively hot.

It's just that after midnight and the yin moon Zhongyuan has completely entered, the originally irritating cicada cries have disappeared. Maybe these little things also know to keep a low profile today.

The inner hall of the Qian family's mansion.

As the hostess of the family, Mrs. Qian has not slept peacefully for a long time since her husband had an accident. She tossed and turned many nights, thinking about whether her original decision was right or wrong.

Tonight was the same, as she recalled everything that had happened that day.
The husband went out for a walk as usual, but there was no news for three consecutive days. Until the fourth day, his husband Qian Laifeng was brought back by his younger brother Qian Laifeng.

His body was covered with hideous scars, and his body was nailed with dozens of bamboo thorns.

Where has Mrs. Qian seen this battle?His eyes turned white and he almost fainted.

In the words of his second uncle Qian Laishun, his eldest brother was kidnapped by horse bandits and taken to a mountain valley, where he suffered inhuman abuse. It took a lot of effort to rescue him from the clutches of the devil.

It's just that the person is already like a candle in the wind, and there is no way to save him when he is rescued home.

Just as Mrs. Qian was grieving and preparing to make funeral arrangements, her second uncle Qian Laishun gave her a suggestion.

He said that he knew a few hidden masters who had methods to help people extend their lives.

From a rational point of view, Mrs. Qian did not believe it, but she could only grasp this life-saving straw and give it a try. If she failed, the result would not be worse.

Several experts came.

He cut off the neck of a dog in front of Mrs. Qian, and then brought the dog back to life in front of Mrs. Qian. There was no difference at all.

This move made Mrs. Qian overjoyed.

When she thought God was showing mercy, the masters announced the conditions.

No money, no property, Quan should do good deeds to others, but people are different from dogs. If you want to use this technique, a close relative must pull out Qian Laifeng's tongue and kill him. One man, one woman, one yin and one yin. Well, such an important responsibility naturally falls on my wife and brother.

To this day, whenever Mrs. Qian thinks about the scene that night, she feels extremely uncomfortable, scared and nauseated.

Because if you think about it carefully, there are too many things about the whole thing that are not worthy of scrutiny. If it was the bandits who did it, why didn't they seek money, but instead abused Qian Laifeng?
It has been so many days since the incident, but the experts who cast the spell have never shown up again. Where have they gone?
Mrs. Qian has doubted the possibility of resurrection from the dead countless times, and comforted herself countless times that those experts are very powerful.

Just like this, 48 ​​days passed, and the number of double sevens was finally reached.

Squeak——

The wooden window was blown open by the night wind, and dim moonlight poured into the room.

"Xiao Jin? Xiao Jin??"

Mrs. Qian called her personal maid, but little did she know that her second uncle Qian Laishun had secretly ordered her to be killed, and she had secretly sunk into the pond at dusk.

After calling for a long time to no avail, Mrs. Qian had no choice but to get out of bed herself.

She passed by the cabinet
Passed by the screen.
Passed by the dressing table.
Passed by the bronze mirror...
Stop it abruptly!

Mrs. Qian's steps suddenly stopped, her whole body tensed up, and her heart suddenly rose to her throat!
From the corner of his eye, he seemed to see that his own reflection in the bronze mirror did not disappear with his footsteps, but was fixed in the center of the bronze mirror for an instant!
Fear was overwhelming her heart, and Mrs. Qian couldn't be sure if she was dazzled just now.

She slowly turned her head and looked.

The dim moonlight shines on the bronze mirror, making it difficult to see at this angle.

Mrs. Qian swallowed, and for a moment she didn't know whether to close the window or go back to bed.

In the end, she chose to knock down the frightening bronze mirror.

It wasn't that her brain was in trouble, but in fact, those experts had said that they had set up a barrier in the mansion, saying that it could suppress evil spirits in the house, so Mrs. Qian felt a little confident.

step.
two steps
In front of the dressing table, the self reflected in the bronze mirror still retains her charm, but she looks very haggard and sickly white.

Ok?
Why is my forehead a little dark?
Mrs. Qian looked at herself in the mirror. She rubbed her forehead with her hand, but after wiping it, there was no dirt on her hand.

Look in the mirror again.

His forehead was still dark.

Also, a swollen and pale finger was stroking his long hair.

Mrs. Qian suddenly looked back. Because her movements were too nervous, she knocked over many bottles and cans while leaning against the dressing table.

However, there was no one behind him.

The room is still the same.

Her eyes were bloodshot, her hairs stood on end as she looked around, and her heart was beating fiercely.

But still didn't see another person or ghost.

Could it be that I have been in a bad mood recently and have hallucinations?
After letting out a slow breath of relief, Mrs. Qian turned around and picked up the bottles.

It's just that she didn't find out.

The window that was originally open has long been closed, as if it had never been opened!
After picking up the bottles and cans, Mrs. Qian was exhausted mentally and physically. She didn't want to live such a frightened life anymore, she just wanted everything to go back to the beginning.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt aggrieved. She supported Su Zhuangtian, tears falling down her cheeks.

The sobbing suddenly stopped, and Mrs. Qian's pupils shrank sharply.

There were no tears falling from the corners of my eyes in the mirror.Instead, she smiled like a flower!
Mrs. Qian screamed loudly when she fully realized that something was wrong, which was the first reaction of most women when faced with terror.

But the moment he opened his mouth, a swollen and ulcerated palm appeared in the mirror, tightly grabbing Mrs. Qian's tongue.

Blood mist filled the sky!
Splattered all over the dresser!

Everything is back to calm.

A window is still a window, and a mirror is still a mirror.

Only Mrs. Qian was lying in a pool of blood, holding the tongue she had torn out in her hand.

The smile was happy and peaceful, just like the last person she saw in the mirror.

at the same time.

A figure moved towards the door of the room.

Money comes smoothly.

Judging from his drunken and hazy look, he probably drank too much.

Mainly just too happy.

Ever since I became a dog, my own good days are about to come.

Not only did he successfully deal with the useless eldest brother, but he was also able to capture all the family's property and wealth. He also used that swamp-yin technique to cause widespread panic in Sunjiawan and the mine. It is estimated that it won't take long. If you can purchase other mines at a low price, you won’t be able to exchange your gold and silver at that time.

The most important thing is that I can finally try the dumplings that I have been craving for several years, and I can eat them as much as I want in the future.

Why not eat in advance?

Of course it’s for the sense of ceremony.

As long as tonight passes, the art of Marsh Yin will be perfected. To a certain extent, 'Big Brother' can be considered resurrected.

On such a big day, it's a good time to taste delicious food, with an emphasis on excitement.

Push the door in.

The refreshing aroma of dumplings penetrated his nose, which made Qian Laishun even more drunk.

Tiptoe to go inside.

You can vaguely see the beautiful shadow on the gums from the screen.

His great wish is about to be fulfilled, and Qian Laishun's blood is rushing to his head.

With the strength of alcohol and good life, he no longer wanted to endure it. He rushed to his gums with one move, hugging that day and thinking about it all night.

Excited heart, trembling hands.

Qian Laishun turned the dumpling over, and everything he touched was filled with the soft fragrance of nephrite.

Surprisingly, it was already late at night and Dumpling did not fall asleep. After being turned over, she looked over with watery eyes and a slight smile on her lips.

This time, this place, this feeling, this scene, this person, this smile.

These are all scenes that Qian Laishun has imagined countless times.

In addition to excitement and satisfaction, there is even more gratitude.

He was grateful to God for giving him a chance to be a dog.

From beginning to end, he felt that he had not contributed much in this incident.

He just deceived his brother to the countryside as ordered, carried his broken body home to deceive his sister-in-law, deliberately let go of a worker in his mine, and so on.

After doing a few random things, I got everything I dreamed of.

As for who died during the process and how many died, does it have anything to do with him?
I just wish I had the chance to be a dog when I was in my 30s. If I had known better, I would have been born in the womb.

The night air is clear when I leave my room privately, and there is a fragrant mist and snow in the courtyard.

Bamboo leaves are divided into delicate hands, and the peach sheng is soaked in the autumn water.

Apricot face and peach cheeks, if you want to refuse, you will welcome them.

Qian Laishun didn't know why Dumpling didn't resist as expected tonight.

But if you already have this, how can you care about so much?

The mouth full of big yellow teeth sucked it.

However, something soon started to feel wrong.

Mainly because it tastes wrong.

The dumpling filling should be fragrant, but why does it have a strange smell?

It was like a smelly fish that had been soaking in a smelly ditch for dozens of days. When he got over it, Qian Laishun almost vomited out his overnight meal.

Remember, you didn’t even have fucking salted fish for dinner?
But it has come and I have to swallow it back with tears in my eyes.

Isn't it just a bit too strong?It's no big deal.

Qian Laishun didn't think much about it, which showed that he had a very good attitude. If it were a brothel, he would have refunded the money a long time ago.

click-

There was lightning and thunder outside the window!
All of a sudden, the room was filled with light!
Qian Laishun used the light to completely see the face of the person in front of him.

Where are the dumplings?

It’s simply a combination of rotten sinews and rotten meat!

It only has a thin layer of translucent skin on the outside, but the rotten flesh and tendons inside are squirming irregularly!

After the thunderstorm.

There is no light in the darkness.

There is also a desire for money to come.

After realizing what the ghost in front of him was, he was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder broke.

impossible!
How could it appear here!

The mansion has already put in place layers of protective measures!
Besides, it is already the Yin Qi Zhongyuan, so it should be in the pond and swamp!

Confusion, shock and fear.

At the last moment of his life, Qian Laishun had no idea what went wrong and had no time to think about it.

Blood is shining!
It's not just the tongue that was stirring flexibly before.

I saw Qian Laishun's chest sinking rapidly, as if his body had been hollowed out
Everything is calm again.

A bed is still a bed, and a house is still a house.

Mrs. Qian's body in front of the dressing table gradually became cold.

Qian Laishun never entered the house from beginning to end.

He fell on his back outside the room door.

He put his hands into his mouth, and the gap was so huge that it even penetrated his entire forearm. There were all kinds of bloody parts around him.

shocking.

Did he die because of the knife on the head of the word "sex"?
unknown.

But if Qian Laishun was still alive, he would be shocked that things were completely different from what he had imagined. In addition to his confused and tragic death, in fact, all the slaves and maids in Qian's mansion saw extremely terrifying things one by one, and eventually they all pulled out their tongues and died on the spot.

More than a dozen members of the Qian family's family were all closed overnight.

What's more important is that Qian Laishun doesn't understand the truth in the world.

Although the flatbread is delicious, if you don’t have a good appetite, you will choke to death.

From the moment he decided to become a dog, he was destined not to survive tonight. Everyone in the Qian Mansion was a living sacrifice.
At the same time, the birch forest outside Qian's mansion.

The two brothers had no idea what was going on in Qian's house.

Their faces were downcast, as if they were hopeless.

Zhao Sanyuan wiped the rain from his face, "No, Lao Kang, you are so good at fortune-telling, why don't you count whether it will rain today?"

"You didn't let me count." Kang Muang was also helpless. He looked up at the sky, my dear, it's raining hard and fast.

He looked at the explosive bag in his hand again, wondering whether it was waterproof or not.
