But she didn't take them far. Instead, she took them to a nearby house, where Wu Mei would torture them in various ways until they were in unbearable pain before taking their lives.
After she does this, she immediately places a doll on their corpses. According to Wu Mei, those dolls absorb the resentment of these young boys and then turn into something very powerful.
I don't know much about that doll, I only know that she has sold quite a few to some rich people over the years.
After the dolls were made, she would bury the corpses directly underground. Over the years, countless bones have been buried beneath those houses…
Su Ji roared and raised his hand to punch him, but Lu Yi stopped him. A cold light flashed in Lu Yi's eyes. "I'll ask you one last question. Over the years..."
Have you seen any suspicious people around Wu Mei?
Luo Xiaobing frowned a few times; it seemed the truth-revealing talisman was about to lose its effect. Su Ji angrily stuck another one on him, and only then did Luo Xiaobing speak, "No..."
But if I had to pick one, there was one person who was quite strange.
"Who?" Lu Yi's eyes flashed.
"There is a child named Qingzhu in Wu Mei's backyard. He is different from the other children. He was not brought back by us, but by Wu Mei herself. Only I know about this."
She first informed me that I should come to her with the child and sell the child back to her as a commodity.
At the time, I didn't know why, but I just did as she said. She told me very seriously to keep it a secret, so I never told anyone.
I've seen that child a few times over the years. He's in very poor health and gets sick frequently. Wu Mei often asks me to call a doctor for him.
Putting everything else aside, this is already very strange. No matter how sick the children in the backyard are, Wu Mei never cares about them. She just asks someone to throw in a couple of packets of medicine based on their symptoms.
If she can get through it, she can; if she can't, so be it. Anyway, she doesn't lack children.
Because there are many secrets here, letting a doctor in is a very risky thing to do, so they would rather spend a little money than hire a doctor for them.
So Qingzhu is an exception. I wondered to myself if this child might be Wu Mei's illegitimate child.
But it's a bit strange to say that. Although Wu Mei treats the child very well in this respect, she doesn't really take care of him much in general.
The children and adults in the yard ostracized him, but she didn't say anything, so I wasn't entirely sure.
Lu Yi was suspicious after hearing his words, but looking at Luo Xiaobing's sincere expression, he felt that he couldn't get anything out of him.
Lu Yi thought about the question they most wanted to ask, and finally asked, "In all these years, has any elderly man come looking for Wu Mei?"
Luo Xiaobing frowned deeply. "No... Wu Mei only likes young men. There haven't been any older men appearing."
Lu Yi was somewhat disappointed, and Yan Wu added, "It doesn't have to be someone who came specifically to see her. Any old man who has appeared in the eastern suburbs counts. Think carefully and see if you have one."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiaobing thought carefully for a moment, and then, in his somewhat unclear mind, the image of a person suddenly appeared...
