☆, Chapter 110: Harmful to Husband and Children
Logically speaking, if the revenge of the Ouija board happens once, the remaining children will be terrified and will completely exclude this game from their acceptance.
But it didn't happen. No matter how their parents warned them, and no matter how their teachers and principals forbade it, these children, who had just started elementary school, all followed suit.
More and more people are playing the Ouija board game privately. And almost every one of them asks the Ouija board the same taboo question: "How did you die?"
The bloody massacre begins.
But the strangest thing is that among the adults who died, there were almost no mothers, only fathers. And according to the survey, the children whose fathers died did not suffer from the loss of their pillar of support that many people imagine. Instead, they were happier than before.
Especially the cousin and her family who were the initial victims. They later moved to the town and now run a small restaurant. My cousin herself was admitted to the best junior high school. Everything is developing in a good direction.
As for the other few, the situation is similar.
"From this perspective, it seems that this Ouija board fairy helped them." Rong Qing flipped through the information and felt that the Ouija board fairy's behavior was a little familiar.
"It's a bit like raising a ghost, isn't it?" Yu Jiuyin understood Rongqing's thoughts. There's a strange technique in exorcism called raising a ghost. Simply put, it involves feeding a tragically deceased ghost child and asking it to fulfill one's wishes. That's the feeling this Ouija board gives people.
Rongqing was always meticulous, so when investigating the case, he also looked into the circumstances of the deceased. None of these deceased men were good people.
Daily drinking and gambling did not contribute anything to the family. Moreover, their reputation in the village was very bad, so after their death, the lives of those families would get better and better.
The reason the villagers weren't overly panicked by the deaths was 90% because the Ouija boarders were only carrying away bad people. So, while they were terrified, they didn't want to flee. After all, they were decent people who lived peaceful lives. They simply didn't allow their children to play with Ouija boards and sent them to school in town.
"I think the people in these villages must know something, but they just keep silent about it."
"I think so too. In that case, let's go ask this cousin's family first. Li Xiu, the little girl's name sounds good."
Rongqing tacitly agreed to Yu Jiuyin's plan and asked the driver to drive to the town. They wanted to go find Li Xiu first, the girl who was the first to play with the Ouija board.
But when Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing arrived at school, they learned that Li Xiu had returned home early.
"Are you sick or is there something going on at home?" Yu Jiuyin asked Li Xiu's teacher.
"Something happened at home, so she went back to the village to help. Her father died early, so all the work in the village was done by her grandparents. Although Li Xiu's mother brought her to town, she would actually go back early to help every time she caught fish."
"So how does Li Xiu usually get along with his classmates? He sounds like a very capable kid."
"It's alright, I guess," the teacher said, a bit unsure how to describe it. "The kids in our town aren't as picky as many in the city. When Li Xiu first arrived, he had good grades, so everyone liked him. But then a student from another fishing village's No. 2 Primary School transferred in, and there were a lot of negative rumors."
"But it's not that exaggerated. We teachers have also paid attention to it. But the child is still a little hurt. Now he is very introverted and doesn't like to talk to people." When mentioning this, the head teacher was also a little anxious.
Yu Jiuyin nodded in understanding, "Thank you for your cooperation. We'll be leaving first."
After saying that, Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing left the school.
On their way to the fishing village, Yu Jiuyin didn't say much, and Rongqing looked thoughtful, and compared the several men that Ouija had killed before.
Whether it was Rongqing or Yu Jiuyin, they both felt that the reason why the Ouija Ouija killed people might be far more complicated than that. Yu Jiuyin even faintly smelled a hint of blood and felt that something was going to happen.
As expected, upon entering the village, they were met with a chaotic scene. Four police officers in uniform and on bicycles were stopped at the village entrance. As for the villagers, they were all filled with righteous indignation, holding up farm tools to block the entrance and refusing to let anyone in, no matter what.
Especially the old lady sitting in the middle of the road, who looked to be in her seventies, howling without stopping. There wasn't even a tear on her face, but her crying was even more miserable than Meng Jiangnu.
As for the four policemen, they were helpless. The older one was still trying to persuade them, while the younger one had already gone to the side to smoke. Out of sight, out of mind.
"What's going on?" Yu Jiuyin was fine, but Rongqing was a little surprised. Then he frowned, thinking that these people were just making trouble.
He rarely visited such a remote place. Although he had been to Juehu Village last time and stayed there for a night, it was deserted at that time, with only wandering ghosts and wandering spirits to see, so naturally he couldn't see much. But this time, it was truly an eye-opener.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just say that someone died in this village, but the police were not allowed to enter, but were blocked outside. What is this routine?
As he got closer and listened to a few words, Rong Qing became even more suspicious of the specific era these people lived in. The Qing Dynasty had already fallen, and they were still talking about the saying that the dead woman was unlucky and that the daughter-in-law had a bad fate and wanted to lock her up in the ancestral hall to be punished by family law and then drowned in a pond.
What a mess this is.
At this moment, the old lady was still crying and yelling, "Comrade police, you have to do something for me! This little bitch killed my son before. She was afraid that we would punish her, so she took her daughter and ran to the town overnight. Over the years, my old couple has been at home with no one to support us. She is over 70 years old and still has to work every day. Even so, that little bitch is still unwilling to let us go."
"As soon as I came back, my old man was killed. My heart is broken. I am almost buried. I want justice."
"I know, I know what you mean, but we have to understand the situation first, right?" The old policeman continued to comfort him. "Look, let's take the body away for an autopsy, and then talk to your daughter-in-law about the situation."
"What do you mean by 'no'? An autopsy is not allowed. My son had an autopsy when he died, and when they came back, there wasn't even a complete body. I don't agree, I won't allow it."
"That's right," other villagers nearby also stood up to speak up. "The dead should be buried in peace. How can they not even give him a complete body? And what's the point of holding a trial? The old man died as soon as his young wife came back. If it wasn't the young wife's fault, who else could it be?"
"Yes, it's definitely him. If you don't dare to judge, just give the case to us and we will handle it ourselves."
"What's the deal? Just drown him in the pond and deal with him according to family law."
"This won't do. Everyone calm down. We are now in a society ruled by law. Even if that young wife is truly a criminal, she must be judged according to the law."
"So what you mean is that you can't control us anymore, then we don't need you to care about us, get out of here."
The villager raised his sickle and was about to drive the people out.
"Are these people living in ancient times?" Rong Qing looked like he was watching a farce.
Yu Jiuyin shook his head. "It's either ancient or backward. That's why education is still useful. If you understand the law, you'll understand that what they're doing now is a crime."
"Let's get out of the car and take a look." Yu Jiuyin said, then opened the car door and got out.
Rongqing followed quickly behind.
The police officer nearby initially wanted to stop them to prevent them from getting into trouble. However, Yu Jiuyin simply showed Rongqing his ID.
"We are from City B and are investigating this case."
"Ah, you're finally here, Chief!" The young policeman greeted Yu Jiuyin with the same amusement as if he were a family member. "Hey, it's not that we're inexperienced. You saw it too, these people are completely out of control. We're like scholars meeting soldiers, unable to explain ourselves. It's been three hours since we called the police, and we haven't even seen the suspect, let alone the body. They've been blocking us here the whole time, forcing us to admit it was that young woman's fault."
"What specific details do we know now?" Rongqing first understands the case.
"I don't know anything. I only know that an old man died and it was a little girl who called the police. Oh, this little girl is so miserable. How could she be born in such a place?"
"How do you say that?" Yu Jiuyin asked curiously.
The young police officer sighed again, "She's truly pitiful. Coincidentally, this little girl was the witness to the Ouija case you're investigating. Her father was the first to die. And this old lady is just being unreasonable. This little girl's mother sends someone a thousand yuan every month. In a small village like this, building a house only costs ten or twenty thousand yuan, so a thousand is a huge sum."
"And the mother and daughter are quite filial. They always come back to help during the fishing season. I think they came back to help this time as well, but her grandfather died within two days of arriving."
"So the person who died this time was Li Xiu's grandfather." Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing looked at each other and both felt that it was such a coincidence.
The policeman was also bald. "Otherwise, that old lady would have insisted that Li Xiu's mother pay for her life, saying that Li Xiu's mother was destined to bring disaster to her husband and father, and that she was the cause of all the deaths."
"Nonsense. If there really is a conflict, it's this old lady's fault. A woman with pointed and exposed cheekbones is the number one face that kills her husband. Not only will her husband be disrespectful outside, but his children will also be carelessly brought up. Also, look at her sunken cheekbones, which further proves that she's a husband-killer. The cheekbones are also known as the palace of marriage in physiognomy. If a woman has a sunken cheekbones or has bad lines or moles on them, she's unlikely to stay with one husband. Even if she divorces and remarries, it's all in vain."
"With this kind of face, isn't it normal for her husband to die?"
Yu Jiuyin's voice was quite loud, and happened to be heard by the villagers. Suddenly, the look in their eyes when they looked at the old lady became strange.
Because Yu Jiuyin was right. This old lady was indeed remarried. Her first husband left home to work after only two years of marriage because the family was too poor. He never returned, and it was said that he was attracted by the birds outside. Later, this old lady remarried, marrying this old man.
This was all a long-standing story. If Yu Jiuyin hadn't mentioned it, no one would have remembered it. Now, everyone couldn't help but wonder if it was the old woman or her daughter-in-law who had killed the old man.
The old lady also panicked and quickly stood up and pointed at Yu Jiuyin, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Yu Jiuyin wasn't worried at all. "My last name is Yu, and the old man in the Taoist temple is my master."
"Ah, it's that little immortal!" As soon as Yu Jiuyin finished speaking, everyone was shocked. Even the four policemen looked at him with surprised eyes.
In K City, when it comes to Taoist temples, there's only one name: the one owned by Master Yu Jiuyin. Master and disciple Yu Jiuyin are also quite famous locally. Aside from the younger ones, everyone else, even those of Yu Jiuyin's age, knows that the temple houses two deities, one large and one small, who are incredibly accurate in their predictions and can catch ghosts and save lives.
As a result, the villagers who had originally followed the old lady to make trouble suddenly lost their minds. After all, the little immortal said that if there was any death, it was the old lady herself who killed her, so it had nothing to do with the young wife.
"Then let's go in and investigate the case first. There must be a culprit when someone dies. Don't delay the police's investigation." Seeing that the people were shocked, Yu Jiuyin quickly asked them to disperse.
This time everyone was obedient and really dispersed.
Only one brave person came up to Yu Jiuyin and asked him, "What if he wasn't killed by someone?"
Yu Jiuyin said calmly, "Then I will take that thing."
All the villagers laughed at this sentence. They all thought it was great that someone could finally deal with the evil thing in the village.
Just like that, Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing were happily welcomed into the village by the villagers. Even the four policemen were included in the reception. The old lady who had led the earlier riot was forgotten.
"Where are the people and bodies now?" After entering the village, the first official Yu Jiuyin met was the village chief. He asked directly what he wanted to know most.
After asking about their identities, the village chief took a deep drag on his pipe and then said to Yu Jiuyin, "Young man, come with me. We don't know what kind of demon has offended our village. Police comrades, don't blame them for causing trouble. You'll understand once you see it."
Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing exchanged a glance, both realizing something was fishy going on. Sure enough, the moment they saw the body, the two younger police officers ran out and vomited.
The death was too tragic.
