Chapter 26: The secret passage in the cellar
I don't know how long I was in a coma, anyway, when I woke up, the sun was already dazzling my eyes.At that time, I opened my eyes in a daze, and then sat up.As I sat up, I found my feet were wrapped in white snakeskin.The snake skin seemed to have just been taken off last night.
"Ah!" Seeing the snakeskin on my feet, I yelled again, kicking around with my feet while calling me.At this time, the Zhushan old man was lying less than two meters away from me, and it seemed that he hadn't woken up yet.
However, along with my cry, his eyes slowly opened.
"What's wrong?" Zhushan old man asked subconsciously, and then propped himself up with his hands.
The old Taoist Zhushan saw the snakeskin wrapped around my kick, so he immediately came to help me.After he tore off the snake skin wrapped around my feet with his hands, the old Taoist Zhushan checked my whole body again, and after making sure that I was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's a good thing you're fine, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain to your mother." Zhushan said.
After speaking, the old Taoist of Zhushan took me back to the village.On the way back to the village, the old Taoist of Zhushan asked me to keep the events of last night strictly confidential, and not to reveal any rumors.
I know what the old Taoist of Zhushan means. If I expose his background and tell the story that he did not capture those ghosts last night, his reputation as an old Taoist of Zhushan will be ruined.
Although I am a brat, I am also very clear that the reason why Zhushan old man missed last night was also due to me.If it wasn't because I dropped the gossip lamp, maybe the Zhushan old man wouldn't have missed it.What's more, at that critical moment last night, the old Taoist Zhushan didn't abandon me, but ran with me behind his back.Based on this alone, I should help him.Therefore, I agreed to the old Taoist of Zhushan, and I will not say anything after returning to the village.
After returning to Shima Village, in order to reassure the villagers, Zhushan Laodao lied, saying that although Zhang Xiaolan's body was not found, her soul was almost controlled by Zhan Shi, and she would not make trouble again.
I don't know if the old Taoist Zhushan told me the reason before he told the lie because he was afraid that I would expose his lie.Zhushan old man said that what Zhang Xiaolan hated was Liu Renqing's family, and the reason why she appeared at Zhang San's house last time was to harm Li Tianzhen.But now, Liu Renqing was in the hospital in the town, and Li Tianzhen and Liu Dakui were at Miemen Po's. Therefore, as long as Liu Renqing's family members did not come back, Zhang Xiaolan would not appear in Shima Village again.
Of course, the old Taoist Zhushan only made such a vow on his lips, but in his heart, he was still a little uncertain.Therefore, after saying this, the old Taoist of Zhushan sent a talisman to every household in Shima Village, asking everyone to go back and stick it on the gate.
At the same time, the old Taoist of Zhushan also told everyone that Zhang Xiaolan's soul was only temporarily suppressed, but not completely tamed.Therefore, in July and a half, he had to go to Pine Forest Mountain.
This time, maybe because he was afraid that I would make the same mistake as last night again, the old Taoist Zhushan said that he would come to pick me up to his Taoist temple on the tenth day of the seventh lunar month. He would train me five days in advance and teach me some basic things.
I was in the first grade at the age of six, so I was on summer vacation at that time.The tenth day of the seventh month of that year should be August 8st in the Gregorian calendar, and it was not yet the start of school.Therefore, the old Taoist Zhushan said that he would take me to his Taoist temple for five days, and my mother didn't stop me.
After talking about these things, the old Taoist of Zhushan called me aside and told me that the reason why I was safe and sound last night was because the Qiankun jade around my neck protected me.Therefore, the old Taoist Zhushan told me to keep his words in mind, not to pick off the Qiankun jade, let alone get rid of it, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
After giving instructions, the old Taoist Zhushan left.
On the second day after Zhushan Laodao left, a shocking news reached Shima Village.Zhang Xiaolan's case was solved, and the murderer of Zhang Xiaolan was Liu Renqing.
According to the doctor on duty at the town hospital, on the night of Zhang Xiaolan's death, Liu Renqing was not in the ward, but slipped out quietly.
At the same time, an eyewitness provided clues to the police, saying that on the night of the incident, he saw Liu Renqing near the big fish pond. At that time, Liu Renqing was still holding a rolling pin in his hand.
After getting this information, the police from the police station rushed to the town hospital immediately, ready to investigate Liu Renqing thoroughly.However, when the police arrived at the hospital, they found that Liu Renqing had disappeared.
Obviously, Liu Renqing heard the news and fled in fear of crime.According to the police's judgment, Liu Renqing was likely to return home after he escaped. Therefore, the police came to Shima Village and went to Liu Renqing's home.
Because Li Tianzhen had gone back to her mother's house, Liu Renqing's house was said to be deserted.However, when the policemen walked to the door of Liu Renqing's house, they clearly heard noises inside the house.
And, oddly enough.The outside gate of Liu Renqing's house was not locked, and the inside latch was still fastened.Unless there is someone in the family, it is absolutely impossible for such a situation to occur.
Li Tianzhen has already returned to her natal family, and everyone knows that Liu Dakui must also be with his mother Li Tianzhen.Now, there is obviously someone in Liu Renqing's house, and there is no sign that the door has been pried. It is not difficult to see that the person in the house opened the door with a key.
Except for Liu Renqing, there will be no other person who can open the door with a key.
"Liu Renqing, open the door!" The policeman who led the team knocked on the door with his hand, and then called out.
When this policeman called the door, other policemen had already blocked the back door of Liu Renqing's house.In this way, as long as Liu Renqing is really at home, he will never run away.
After the police officer who led the team yelled a few times, the room suddenly fell silent.
"Liu Renqing, open the door quickly, you can't escape. If you confess, you will be lenient, but if you resist, you will be strict." The policeman who led the team fought a psychological battle with Liu Renqing.
The police yelled outside for a long time, but Liu Renqing still showed no sign of opening the door.
Since Liu Renqing was so inactive, the police had no reason to talk to him.
"Open the door!" said the policeman leading the team.
After finishing speaking, a young man went to find an axe, and with a few axes down, the door was hacked open by the police.
After entering the house, the police did not find Liu Renqing, but they found the hospital gown that Liu Renqing wore when he was in the hospital in Liu Renqing's bedroom.In other words, the person in the room just now must be Liu Renqing.
"Search carefully." The policeman who led the team roared.
Since Liu Renqing was still in the house just now, and the front and back doors were guarded by police, it was impossible for him to escape.In other words, he must still be hiding in the house.
The police searched the house for more than an hour, almost turned the house upside down, but they still couldn't find Liu Renqing.Just when everyone was a little desperate, a policeman suddenly called out.
"Cell, there's something wrong with the cellar," the policeman yelled.
When the policeman shouted, everyone surrounded him.
On the surface, Liu Renqing's cellar is no different from the cellars of other villagers.They also dug a big pit in the main room, and then covered it with dusty wooden boards.
However, after uncovering the wooden boards, it can be found that there is something wrong with Liu Renqing's cellar.
At the bottom of the cellar, there is a small wooden door that is closed, and some sweet potatoes are piled on the small wooden door.At first, the small wooden door was covered by sweet potatoes, so no one noticed the problem.
Just now, it was the policeman who discovered the problem. He accidentally used a stick to pry the sweet potatoes in the cellar before he discovered the small wooden door.After discovering it, he immediately jumped down and opened the small wooden door.After opening, a secret passage just enough for one person to enter appeared.
Now, the police have searched Liu Renqing's home, but they couldn't find Liu Renqing.Obviously, Liu Renqing should have escaped through this secret passage.However, no one knows where this secret road leads to.
Even Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang, who had a good relationship with Liu Renqing, didn't know that there was a secret way hidden in Liu Renqing's house.Moreover, this secret path is obviously not newly built, it should have been built for many years.
Facing this secret path, everyone present was a little confused. What would an ordinary farmer do for building a secret path?
"Ah!" Seeing the snakeskin on my feet, I yelled again, kicking around with my feet while calling me.At this time, the Zhushan old man was lying less than two meters away from me, and it seemed that he hadn't woken up yet.
However, along with my cry, his eyes slowly opened.
