Lin Weiwan looked at the pair of bright eyes and couldn't help asking, "How old are you?"
"You are eighteen years old now. Where are you from, sister?" Jincao's voice was still hoarse. The two were close to each other, so Jincao's voice was a little lower, and it felt much better.
"I came from Beijing. I'm here to look for my husband." Lin Weiwan said while looking at the golden grass.
Jin Cao nodded, "Is it that good-looking big brother?"
Lin Weiwan was absolutely sure that the golden grass was referring to Ye Jibai.
"Have you seen him?" Lin Weiwan looked at Jincao with hope in his eyes.
"Jincao, ask your mother to prepare more food and take a piece of bacon from the beam and cook it." Jin Jiu looked at Jincao and said.
Jin Cao heard what his father said and nodded happily, "I understand, Dad."
He turned to look at Lin Weiwan and said, "Sister, wait a minute, I'll be back soon." Then he rushed out in a hurry.
Jin Jiu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his daughter's happy figure. If Jin Cao hadn't been disfigured, she would have found a husband by now.
"It's getting late today. You should stay overnight and get up early tomorrow and go down the mountain." Jin Jiu said coldly.
"Village chief, is there no one who went into the back mountain and came out? Can I ask why your husband went into the back mountain?" Lin Weiwan stopped Jin Jiu who was about to go out and asked.
Jin Jiu looked at Lin Weiwan who was standing in front of him with cloudy eyes.
Chen Jingyang hurried to pull Lin Weiwan, "I'm sorry, village chief, my sister really wants to find her brother-in-law."
Jin Jiu put the tobacco pot on his waist and said, "You can't control these things. Don't ask."
"Uncle Jiu, something bad has happened..." A shout came from outside the yard.
A young man ran in barefoot, panting heavily. "Uncle Eighth is in trouble."
"What? Where?" Jin Jiu's eyes widened when he heard it. He hurriedly followed him out.
Chen Jingyang glanced at Lin Weiwan, and the two of them ignored the luggage in the room and quickly ran out following Jin Jiu.
The group ran to the woods halfway up the mountain, where several people were already standing.
Seeing Jin Jiu coming, everyone made way. Lin Weiwan discovered that there were buckets on the ground nearby. There were also two wheelbarrows parked nearby.
And the red-stained ground was so dazzling that I dared not look at it a second time after the first glance.
Lin Weiwan covered her mouth with both hands and looked at the mutilated body on the ground in horror.
"Ah..." A scream came from the side.
A woman ran over and asked, "Father of the child..."
The woman was held by the two young men, half-kneeling on the ground, exhausted.
“Um…” Jin Cao said with red eyes.
Lin Weiwan was blocked by Chen Jingyang behind him, and the person on the ground was ripped open.
But the strange thing is that the knife was tightly held in the dead man's own hand.
Anyone with a little medical knowledge knows that after death, the body will stiffen. By analogy, who would gouge themselves alive with a knife?
"Lei Zi, you and your brother should hurry down the mountain to report to the police." Village chief Jin's hands trembled slightly.
After returning to the village chief's house, Lin Weiwan was taken to her room by Jincao.
Chen Jingyang was taken to his room by Jin Zhu, and a few young people had lunch together. The village chief and his friends had not returned.
"Sister Xiaowan, this village has been cursed. You should leave quickly tomorrow." Jincao said with red eyes.
Jin Zhu put down his chopsticks and said, "Jin Cao, don't talk nonsense."
"You are not talking nonsense. This is the fourth person. The village must have been cursed." Jincao said hoarsely.
Lin Weiwan looked at the brother and sister. "Fourth" means this is the fourth person to die. And it happened in a short period of time.
"Jincao, can you tell me?" Lin Weiwan looked at Jincao.
After looking at this face burned by fire for a while, Lin Weiwan got used to it.
"Sister Wan, three months ago, Brother Jin Tao jumped into a well and died. Then, Grandpa Jin Bao next door also jumped into a well a month and a half ago.
More than 20 days ago, Uncle Jinshan hanged himself in the back hills, and now Uncle Eighth has also…” Jincao’s voice was trembling.
"No, there is another one, Jin Ye is dead too." Jin Zhu's voice was low and sad. With a click, a tear fell on the wooden table.
"Gold leaf?" Lin Weiwan looked at the golden pillar.
Jin Zhu nodded. "Jin Ye was pushed into the well by someone from the city. I saw it with my own eyes."
Lin Weiwan now connects the dots, and Hu Xiaopang comes to investigate the suicide case.
Ye Jibai came to investigate, but he and his team disappeared. Most people in this village have the surname Jin, except for the daughters-in-law who married into the village from other villages.
"Xiao Cao, can you take me to see that well?" Lin Weiwan found the key point of the matter and felt that they should go to see the well.
Jin Cao shook his head and wiped his tears, "The well has been filled up."
Lin Weiwan raised his eyebrows and said, "Landfill."
Jin Cao nodded heavily, "Yes, there is a well in the village, but because of what happened before, everyone was afraid of it, so it was filled up. So now the lighter workers in the village are responsible for carrying water back from the spring in the east every day."
"Because several people died, the villagers dared not go out. They even gathered up the laundry and washed it haphazardly. Yamashita sent a letter saying that they would find a team of experts to help them find water sources and dig new wells in a while." Jincao said in a low voice.
"When was the original well dug? Sister Xiaocao, take you to have a look. You are going to go into the mountains to look for your husband tomorrow. He is here because of something happening in the village. You also want to find out what happened." Lin Weiwan stated her plan.
"Sister Xiaowan, please hurry up. You can't go into the back mountain." Jincao stared at Lin Weiwan seriously, afraid that she would not believe him.
