The room fell into a brief silence. After a long while, Boss Hu's eyes were steady and slightly probing:

“I really learned something good.”

"It's just that we are outside Wutou Village now. The headless body found in the hotel is obviously related to the strange story of 'beheading and immortality' in Wutou Village."

"If Miss Tu discovers something now and hides it secretly, then when we go to investigate the fireworks festival in Wutou Village, there will be an information gap."

"rest assured."

I sat down cross-legged:

"'I' will go with you."

"It's just that you've said something ugly before. If you want me to die for you, that's not possible."

"Also, don't be obsessed with the meaning of what I just said. I don't want to be alone."

"I thought that before there was any conclusive evidence, I rashly made arbitrary guesses based on my own ideas. This is actually a very irresponsible thing."

"Although I am right and wrong, but"

But the price of every mistake is too painful.

It's so painful.

What's more, even if the guess is correct, wouldn't the result only be the evaluation of 'eager to perform'?

Perhaps, I should have sold off those two or three taels of my little cleverness to make ends meet.

After hearing what I said, Mr. Hu pondered for a while, then suddenly bowed and gave me a fist-cup salute:

"It would be great if Miss Tu can help with this matter."

"It's just that I'm traveling around with my wife now, and it's hard to mobilize my own assets. Can I, can I have less?"

Boss Hu seemed to rarely say such words, and he stuttered for a moment.

The financial situation of some of them is not very good now. This is something I could see when we met.

Today is not what it used to be.

If you pay me the same money as last time, you will definitely be in trouble.

What's more, although they are looking for a way to metaphysics, they have not stopped using scientific chemotherapy and other treatment methods. The money Hu Xiaowu originally brought was not much, and all the things that required money were added together, and even more. Not a lot of money.

But they had seen my abilities last time and knew that the news they received at this stage of the trip was a bit strange, so they naturally wanted to invite me to accompany them.

Therefore, Boss Hu's embarrassment was genuine, and Hu Xiaowu's expression was also somewhat hesitant.

Sister Ma had been standing aside and listening to us quietly. Now seeing her husband in trouble, she thought about it, took a few steps towards me, took out a cloth bag from the inner pocket of her down jacket, and opened it layer by layer. , actually revealing several shiny golden jewelry.

Sister Ma’s voice was soft but firm:

"Little girl, since the boss wants you to join us, you must be a very powerful person."

"My sister has been a burden all these years since she got married, but she has managed to save a few pieces of gold jewelry that are barely visible. If you don't mind, just take them all. Although they don't have much style, it's not a bad idea to melt them and re-make the jewelry. Incorrect."

Those pieces of golden jewelry were obviously the cross-river money that Sister Ma had reserved for herself.

These small gold jewelry may not look big, but each one is obviously made of gold smelted using ancient methods. They are simple in appearance and full of weight.

Boss Hu and Hu Xiaowu obviously didn't know the existence of this cross-river money. They were both stunned immediately, and then shook their heads together:

"No, how can you take a woman's money?"

"Any man with some ability should not do this."

Sister Ma coughed a few times, rearranged the brim of her knitted hat, and covered up the large bald scalp exposed by her movements:

"Okay, okay, I know you two brothers are very capable."

"At my age, can I really wear gold and silver?"

Boss Hu was about to refute when he heard Sister Ma say again:

"It's okay, I know how you two feel. If we can get along well this time, no matter how much you have, you will give me more in the future."

"If it's not good, how much gold and silver is there, it's just empty talk, right?" The Hu brothers' chests rose and fell a few times, and they said no more.

For me, compared to the pile of gold jewelry, what caught my eye the most was Sister Ma.

The woman looked frail, with a thin body, pale face and sunken cheeks.

Even she didn't notice it. From time to time, she would subconsciously adjust the brim of her hat and put all the remaining hair into the knitted hat.

Obviously, Sister Ma used to be a decent and beautiful woman who loved beauty.

Of course it does now.

It's just that the disease took away her original face, leaving only a pair of firm and gentle eyes.

I looked away, stretched out my hand and picked out a small ring with the simplest appearance among the gold objects:

"That's it."

The three people opposite looked at me in shock, and I said calmly:

"As a deposit."

"When I find a miracle doctor to cure my sister-in-law, I have to give all of this to me."

The three people on the opposite side suddenly felt relaxed, and Hu Xiaowu returned to his playful smiling face:

“Borrow Miss Tu’s good wishes!”

The negotiation was successful and there was nothing more to say.

At night, the four of them slept with their clothes on.

Since there was still some time left for the fireworks festival, a few of us also spent time together over two days to go around Wutou Village to watch, but we didn't gain much, and it refreshed my understanding of the word "xenophobia."

We climbed a nearby mountain and looked at Wutou Village from a distance with binoculars. The whole village was dead and lifeless.

If you look closely, you can see that the village is surrounded by a barbed wire fence except for the village entrance, and there are barbs on the fence.

Almost a few hundred meters away, there will be a transformer box standing next to the barbed wire fence. It is obvious that the entire barbed wire fence is energized.

Although the banner was hung up in a pretentious manner, "To prevent wild animals from straying in, a high-voltage power grid will be set up."

But in fact, anyone who comes can clearly feel what the villagers want to say——

'You can die if you want'.

Therefore, there is absolutely no benefit to be gained by jumping over and breaking in rashly.

I also pretended to be a lost college student and wanted to go into the village to find out information. However, as soon as I approached the entrance of the village, three or two fat and strong men would approach and prevent anyone from entering.

"Tomorrow is the fireworks festival day"

Under the late night light, Boss Hu was fully armed. Perhaps he thought of something and shared his information first:

"I asked the Xian family to investigate and found that in the entire village, apart from being more heavily guarded, other villagers were eating and drinking. There was basically nothing strange about it."

"And, most importantly, all have heads."

This is also consistent with the results of my investigation by sending the soul-possessed paper man.

When I possessed the spirit, I floated into the air and counted about forty households in Wutou Village. There were about three hundred people. Everyone's movements were quite normal, and I didn't see any 'immortal people'. .

"Hidden?"

Hu Xiaowu scratched his head and continued:

"It doesn't make sense. This is such a good living sign. If you pull it out, tomorrow this village will become popular all over the world."

"It's past midnight, and it's the day of the Fireworks Festival. It doesn't matter if you can't see the miracle doctor. At this point in time, if you don't release the Immortal Man, why are you hiding him?" (End of Chapter)
