Disc Village 10
After walking through the paddy fields, we soon reached a cliff. It is called a cliff, but in fact it is right next to the ridge of the field. Looking down, there is a dense forest, and under the forest are fields.
Zhao Shulan said: "This is it. Not many people usually walk here and the road is slippery. Please walk slowly."
Several people stood nearby and looked down. They could still clearly see the traces of broken branches and even traces of fire where people had rolled down. Qin Yan asked, "Has there been a fire here?"
Zhao Shulan followed his gaze and explained, "It wasn't a fire. When the Du family came here to burn paper money, the paper money fell down and got caught."
Qin Yan nodded, and then asked: "Has anyone ever died from falling here before?"
Zhao Shulan shook her head. "Everyone knows that this is a cliff, so we are very careful when we walk here. But Uncle Zhang fell down once before when he was drunk. He was lucky because his clothes got caught by a branch, so he fell down, but it was not a big deal."
Qin Yan asked again: "No one has ever died?"
"Besides these two, I haven't heard of anyone else."
Qin Yan nodded. Zhao Shulan was a little scared to talk about these things in this dangerous place. She said, "Let's go somewhere else. This place is just like this. No matter how hard you look at it, you can't see any flowers. If you are really scared, just don't come here in the future."
Qin Yan nodded, "There's nothing to see, let's go back."
Zhao Shulan was a little surprised. "You're going back just like that? You're not going to go shopping anymore?"
Qin Yan said: "Let's go back by strolling. This place is interconnected, and we can't go back the same way."
"That's right." Zhao Shulan thought what he said made sense, so she looked around and said, "I'll take you to Tangjiatuo, where there are more flowers."
"good"
To Qin Yan, who grew up in the demon world, the beauty of the human world was just so-so, so he chatted with Zhao Shulan along the way. He learned from Zhao Shulan that on the day of Du Ziheng and his wife's wedding, Du Ziheng's second brother Du Ziyu got drunk. Du Ziheng was worried about his brother going home alone so he sent his second brother back. As a result, he accidentally fell off a cliff on the way home. Lan Fang waited for Du Ziheng for a long time but he didn't come back, so she went out to look for him and ended up falling off the cliff as well.
Qin Yan was speechless after hearing this reason full of loopholes. "Who said this?"
Zhao Shulan replied: "The clan leader made the inference based on what everyone said."
Qin Yan asked again: "Are Du Ziheng and his wife injured?"
Zhao Shulan replied: "Yes, I heard that they were covered in wounds, so the village chief speculated that they did not die immediately after falling, but struggled for a while before dying."
Qin Yan asked again: "Is it a scratch?"
Zhao Shulan shook her head, saying she didn't know, "I didn't see it, but I heard that the injury was serious."
Qin Yan asked again: "Who was the first to find their bodies?"
Zhao Shulan replied, "It was Uncle Wu. The land under the cliff was his, but it was a long detour and he only went there once in a while. He went to weed the cornfield that day and found the body when he took a rest in the shade at noon. By then, the body had already stank."
Qin Yan frowned slightly, "How come no one noticed them after they disappeared for so long?"
"Brother Du San separated from his family before the New Year and lives in a remote place. Every family has a lot of things to do during this period, and since they just had a wedding, no one thought about it that way."
"Separation?"
This is another area of Qin Yan's knowledge that is beyond his reach. Gu Qingqu explained: "Some families have many people and when there is not enough space, they will split up the family."
This doesn't make sense. Lan Fang was originally a child adopted by the Du family and had been raised there. After Du Ziheng married her, it would only save one room. How could there not be enough space for them to live in?
Gu Qingqu added: "Some families will also split up their families when their children get married for the sake of fairness."
Qin Yan found it amazing that even in this remote area, there were such customs.
Zhao Shulan said: "It was Du Ziyu who insisted on asking Du Ziheng to give it away."
Gu Qingqu asked: "Isn't the division of the family always presided over by the older generation? Why is he making a fuss about splitting up the family?"
Zhao Shulan explained that the three brothers of the Du family knew from childhood that Lan Fang would definitely marry one of them. They originally thought that Lan Fang would marry the eldest brother of the Du family, but the eldest brother of the Du family married Zhao Shumei. According to the order, Lan Fang should marry Du Ziyu, but they didn't expect that Lan Fang and Du Ziheng liked each other. The old man of the Du family also agreed, but Du Ziyu was unwilling. He made trouble at home every day for several months and had many fights. The most serious time, Du Ziyu lay in bed for half a month without getting out of bed. However, he accepted it from then on and only proposed to separate the family. In order to settle the matter, the Du family also agreed.
Du Ziheng's house is so remote because of Du Ziyu's obstruction.
After listening to Zhao Shulan's words, Qin Yan and Gu Qingqu looked at each other. It seemed that the death of Du Ziheng and his wife was closely related to this Du Ziyu.
Qin Yan said: "The relationship between the two brothers is so bad, why would Du Ziheng send Du Ziyu home in the middle of the night?"
Zhao Shulan said: "Brother Du San is a very good person. He has never quarreled with anyone. No one in the village has a bad word to say about him. Besides, they are brothers. How can brothers hold grudges overnight?"
Qin Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this Du Ziyu a good person too?"
Zhao Shulan frowned when talking about Du Ziyu. "Second brother Du is not as good as third brother Du at all. He is lazy and sly. No one in the village likes him, so he can't find a wife even though he is already grown up. Sister Lan Fang doesn't like her at all. He came to my house to propose marriage before, but was beaten out by my father."
Qin Yan smiled and said, "Your father is really amazing."
Speaking of her father, Zhao Shulan proudly said: "My father is the only hunter in the village, of course he is powerful."
Having found out what he wanted to know, Qin Yan gave the right to speak to Zeng Xiaochun. However, it was obvious that Zhao Shulan didn't like Zeng Xiaochun. When she spoke to him, she was either indifferent or sarcastically criticized, and soon no one spoke.
When they got back to the Zhao family, Zhao Shulan was busy making lunch. Zeng Xiaochun rushed to help, and the others sat in the courtyard in front of the door to bask in the sun and talk about the tragic case of Du Ziheng and his wife.
Cui Chihu was the first to say: "I think this is very obvious"
Everyone looked over. Cui Chihu felt everyone's gaze and paused for a moment before continuing, "Hua Long must have had a brain injury and his memory is confused."
Hua Long, who was standing next to him, immediately got angry when he heard what he said and roared, "Although I was injured, I definitely won't remember it wrongly."
Cui Chihu said: "But their own family members said so, could it be false?"
Hua Long stepped forward and bit his trouser leg, shouting: "They have all been deceived, it's you, it's definitely you"
Cui Chihu pushed it away while defending himself: "It's not us. What does this have to do with us?"
“You are bandits”
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Qin Yan stepped forward and kicked Hua Long away, asking him directly: "Do you think it is possible that Du Ziyu did it?"
Hua Long was stunned and looked up at him, "Impossible, Du Ziyu and the master grew up together, how could he do such a cruel thing?"
Qin Yan didn't say anything about it, but continued to ask: "What do you think of Du Ziyu?"
Hua Long thought for a moment and replied, "No, he doesn't like me and always beats me where the master can't see. When I was little, he picked me up and threw me down from the second floor. I almost died. Later, the master kept me by his side all the time." At this point, Hua Long realized that his words were off, so he quickly said, "But he is still good to the master. He often takes her out to play."
Gu Qingqu interrupted and asked, "She went?"
Hua Long said: "Sometimes I go and sometimes I don't."
"Take you there?"
Hua Long shook his head and said, "He never took me with him."
Gu Qingqu asked again: "Does your master like him?"
This problem makes Hualong embarrassed. It is just a dog. It doesn't know what human preferences are like. It just thinks that the owner is good to everyone, so it can't tell what kind of goodness it really likes.
Qin Yan looked at Gu Qingqu and said, "I will go meet Du Ziyu this afternoon."
Gu Qingqu then said: "I'll go with you"
Qin Yan shook his head, "No, I'll go alone"
"I." Gu Qingqu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Qin Yan. "Be obedient."
Gu Qingqu opened his mouth but didn't say anything, he just nodded. Qin Yan was amused by his expression and raised his chin towards him as a gesture of friendliness.
After lunch, Qin Yan went out. He had already found out that the Du family raised sheep and Du Ziyu usually grazed the sheep on the hillside. When Qin Yan walked over, Du Ziyu was sleeping on a tree, and the flock of sheep were scattered on the hillside, leaving white spots on the green.
Qin Yan took Fu Ze out. Fu Ze's body was no longer so hot and he had woken up, but he was still very weak and looked listless. Qin Yan winked at Fu Ze and then threw Fu Ze on Du Ziyu's head.
The cool touch on his face woke Du Ziyu up immediately. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a huge and beautiful human head, but below the neck was the body of a snake. Du Ziyu screamed in fear and rolled down from the tree.
Qin Yan spoke at the right time, "Monster, where are you running to? Come and surrender quickly!"
Du Ziyu heard his voice and looked over. Seeing that he looked like a hermit, he quickly ran to his side and said, "Master, help me!"
Fu Ze was too weak to hold on to his human form for long, so Qin Yan jumped onto the tree and grabbed him by the neck and threw him into the Chaos Stone Ring. He moved quickly and had his back to Du Ziyu, so Du Ziyu didn't see anything. He only knew that the monster disappeared as soon as Qin Yan went up.
Qin Yan jumped down from the tree swiftly, and Du Ziyu hurried over to kneel down and said, "Thank you, Master, for saving my life."
Qin Yan stared at him coldly with an expressionless face, with a condescending look on his face, "I am a demon catcher, it is my duty to exorcise demons, stand up and speak."
Du Ziyu bowed twice more, then stood up and looked at Qin Yan. He saw Qin Yan frowning and looking him up and down seriously. Du Ziyu felt uneasy and asked quickly, "Master, what's wrong? Do I have any questions?"
Qin Yan shouted coldly, "Kneel down!"
Du Ziyu didn't understand, but Qin Yan's voice was so intimidating that he didn't have time to think about anything and knelt down subconsciously.
"Master, what happened to me?"
