Chapter 166
I won’t talk about tomorrow’s events today, but I will say that when everyone saw the red marks on Old Lady Qian’s neck and wrists, they couldn’t help but believe her a little.
Just this one letter made the fear in everyone's hearts even greater.
Especially since someone had died in the village before, you could still hear the wailing of those families when you stood in the village.
They had been fine in the village the night before, only to wake up to find themselves hanging from a clothesline. The scariest thing was that no one in the family had noticed when they'd disappeared...
At this time, Weisheng took a basin to the village well to wash clothes. Many village women who were washing clothes there saw Weisheng coming and asked him for various folk remedies.
When someone asked, Weisheng would tell them everything he knew. Although he looked cold and indifferent, many villagers felt that Weisheng was just aloof, but he was actually very warm-hearted.
Weisheng's generosity, accepting all offers, wasn't necessarily due to his kindness. After all, whether these people could use the remedies she mentioned in the future depended on whether they were on Zhu Shu's books.
As he spoke, Weisheng took advantage of everyone's inattention and threw a few pieces of dry ice into the village well.
A minute or two later, thick white smoke suddenly billowed from the village well. In the blink of an eye, the area became pitch dark.
It's not choking and doesn't have any smell, but it makes it hard to see around you.
Everyone was startled, but when they ran away, they still remembered to take their clothes and basins with them.
Weisheng also followed these village women away from the village well, and then stood with them looking in the direction of the village well.
"It's broad daylight, it can't be a ghost, right?"
"Could it be some kind of spirit?"
Seeing children playing there, an elderly woman in the crowd asked them to go fetch help. However, by the time they arrived, the white smoke had almost dissipated.
After listening to everyone's chattering and somewhat exaggerated descriptions, the village chief looked timidly at the village well that was still emitting smoke. He wanted to go forward to check but couldn't move his legs.
Weisheng stood in the crowd, following the crowd, watching the villagers' various speculations, and lowered his eyes slightly.
The water is getting more and more muddy.

Yong'an Village seemed to have opened a ghostly portal. The day before, Old Lady Qian was strangled by a ghost, and that morning, something strange was happening at the village well. Finally, by noon, a persimmon tree at the entrance to the village had vanished, leaving only a deep pit.
The villagers were terrified, and no one went to work that afternoon. In the evening, those who usually went to the village committee compound after dinner to chat and play cards stayed at home.
In the evening, Li Yun brought her son to Weisheng for acupuncture to give her courage. She lay on Weisheng's tattered bed, still looking frightened.
After the acupuncture, Li Yun was conflicted, but she finally followed her heart and invited Weisheng to stay at her house for a few nights.
The village has been in turmoil recently. She would feel bad if something happened to a little girl living in a cowshed without even a door.
There was indeed no door in the cowshed, but Weisheng hung bamboo curtains on the windows and the space reserved for the door.
During the day, the bamboo curtain is rolled up, and at night it is lowered. A circle of small bells is fixed under the bamboo curtain, which always rings when people go in and out.
But we only guard against gentlemen, not villains.
Upon hearing the invitation, Weisheng simply shook his head. He softly said, "I'm a transferred personnel," thanked Li Yun for his kindness, and then signaled the mother and son to return home early.
After the mother and daughter left, Weisheng lit a bonfire outside the cowshed and burned some wormwood to repel mosquitoes. There was some smoke, and the smell was quite strong. After standing in the spacious courtyard and looking around, Weisheng returned to the cowshed.
Just like before, he took out a platform made of wooden boards from the space.
Weisheng assembled the platform himself two nights ago using the wooden boards in the space.
A platform that is three meters long and wide is equipped with a gauze tent of the same size, on which are hung several small mosquito repellent pouches.
Inside the gauze tent was a sofa that was two meters long and one and a half meters wide; a small round two-layer coffee table; a vertical desk lamp stand with an outdoor emergency light hanging on it; and a vertical mobile phone and tablet stand.
There were pillows and bedding on the sofa. Weisheng walked onto the platform and sat down on the sofa. Then he took out a fruit plate from the space and placed it on the small coffee table.
She first took a rose and put it in her mouth, then adjusted her posture and found a position that she felt more comfortable in and continued to nestle on the sofa.
Weisheng had imported the lip-reading teaching materials into the tablet. He was now eating fruit while learning lip-reading on the tablet, and occasionally scolding Ji Fuyang.
At eleven o'clock, Weisheng sat up from the sofa, stretched, and then put all the platforms into the space. She also ran to the space to cook herself a midnight snack.
In his previous life, when Weisheng traveled to Guangxi, he found that Luchuan’s braised pork was very delicious, so he bought a lot and stored it in the space.
Weisheng hadn't eaten properly tonight, but now he was craving meat. So he gave up on his health regimen and steamed himself a bowl of braised pork belly.
Cut the appetizing fried braised pork into thin slices, roll it with the grandma's vegetables bought online, and then steam it in a steamer for 20 minutes. It is so delicious that it will kill you.
To go with this dish, Weisheng also cooked a pot of Northeastern rice and made some seaweed and egg soup.
After finishing, I picked up a small dish of Yanji spicy cabbage and put it on the table...
After eating and drinking, Weisheng burped a little.
After a while, he came out of the space, placed the incense burner with calming incense in the cowshed, and then Weisheng started working.
She first went to the small river at the entrance of the village to collect nearly 20 tons of river water, and then returned to a house in the village.
This family also had the surname Zhu. After Zhu Shu got into trouble, they cursed her and said she was not worthy of the surname Zhu. When Zhu Shu was sent back to the village with her hair shaved in the style of a yin-yang, they took people to the cowshed and beat and scolded her. Even more outrageous was that they even took their own daughter to strip Zhu Shu's clothes.
Afterwards, they burned Zhu Shu's clothes, leaving her with only the tattered quilt to cover her naked body...
Weisheng is not an animal, and he would not do such disgusting things as stripping a woman's clothes, but there is no need for people who deserve to die to survive.
When he arrived at the old Zhu's house, Weisheng did not use any calming incense but instead used the silver needle method to prick the old Zhu's family unconscious. He then moved all the Zhu family members who were scattered in several rooms into one room.
After finishing, he took out the ice sheets and ice cubes that had been frozen in the space beforehand and piled them inside the windows and door. Then, he used the ice mist sprayed from the industrial quick-freezing spray gun as glue to firmly fix the ice cubes to the windows and door. Using technological means, he made the house of the Zhu family watertight.
Leaving a hole for exit, Weisheng came out and began to pour river water into the room. When it reached a certain height, he continued to seal it with ice until the river water inside reached the roof. Only then did Weisheng completely seal the entrance to the ice cave and close the door of Lao Zhu's house from the outside.
Although we cannot see what is going on inside, we can imagine that the unconscious Zhu family members are like being in a sealed water jar.
The air is thin and full of water. Even if you manage to wake up, you will drown in despair.
When the thick layer of ice melts tomorrow, the river water will flow out through the windows and door cracks, and their bodies that have been floating all night will fall freely to the ground.
If no one discovered the death of their family, they would have to wait until the stench of corpses wafted out.
It is worth mentioning that when the ice melts, this murder case will be classified as a supernatural event.

After finishing this job, Weisheng went to the town quickly.
Knowing that the special case personnel sent by the Municipal Bureau were still staying in the town police station, Weisheng did not dare to be careless.
Using infrared thermal imaging contact lenses, he carefully avoided all heat sources and came to the outside of the red-sleeved office. With his gloved hands, he posted the big-character poster outside the office, and then retreated as quietly as when he came.
However, Weisheng did not retreat out of the town. Instead, seeing that it was still early, he went to the town train station and bus station.
Only after taking photos of the train and bus timetables with his mobile phone did Weisheng return to the village.
After returning to the village, Weisheng went to Old Lady Qian's house again and relived the nightmare for her just like yesterday.
After sending Old Lady Qian home, Weisheng stood at her door and came up with another crazy idea. He immediately returned to the cowshed, then turned back to his space, and used his memory to find a horror movie and recorded all the screams and laughter in it.
The audio was stored in a small speaker, and after adjusting the repeat mode, the small speaker was fixed on a drone.
Then he controlled the drone and made it fly over the entire Yong'an Village...
It was summer, and many people slept with their windows open. In the middle of the night, screams and laughter were suddenly heard, and many villagers were awakened by the fright.
Thinking of the strange events during the day, everyone had a very vague idea in their minds:
There's something spirit in the village!
A quarter of an hour later, Weisheng piloted the drone back to the abandoned cowshed, then put away the drone and the small speaker, and sighed contentedly:
Look, technology can change destiny and also create supernatural things!
…
The villagers were all woken up by Weisheng's disturbance, and many were too frightened to sleep. As for Weisheng, she didn't return to the space tonight. She placed the wooden platform in the cowshed and slept on the sofa in a very good mood.
After a good night's sleep, Weisheng heard that there was no work arrangement in the village today, so he went to the village well after breakfast.
Although everyone was very scared, there was only one well in the village, so no matter how scared they were, they had to come and fetch water to wash clothes. So after someone bravely fetched a bucket of water and nothing happened, the villagers continued to fetch water and use water as usual.
But it was obvious that no one would stay in Murai anymore.
Seeing that there was no one around, Weisheng was afraid of attracting attention, so he fetched a bucket of water and left.
She returned to the abandoned cowshed, pursed her lips and thought for a while before running out to find the village chief.
Weisheng came to ask the village chief if she could install a door in the cowshed.
The reason was naturally not that she heard any strange noises in the middle of the night, but that she was scared living there alone.
Weisheng hadn't mentioned Anmen's affairs for several days, but he brought it up today... Just this one sentence made the village chief understand what Weisheng was afraid of.
The village chief wanted to say that if there really was a demon, then it wouldn't matter whether the door was locked or not. But he opened his mouth and swallowed the words back. He told Weisheng who the carpenter in the village was and let her make her own arrangements.
Weisheng went to Li Yun's house and told her that she wanted to find a carpenter to order some doors and windows, and asked Li Yun if he could accompany her.
That’s no big deal. Come on, I can even help you bargain for a price.
On the way, he was telling Weisheng how much someone spent on installing doors and windows, and at the same time he asked Weisheng in a very low voice if he had heard anything last night.
Weisheng shuddered in an act of his own, then looked around, and seeing that there was no one around, he said "hmm" softly.
Li Yun also knew that the most unmentionable thing in recent years was gods and ghosts, so seeing Weisheng like this, he lowered his voice and used "that thing" instead.
After Xiaoxiao gossiped with Weisheng for a while, Weisheng and Li Yun went to the carpenter's house.
Just as I was about to bargain, I heard a shrill bicycle bell.
Everyone stood in the carpenter's yard and looked over curiously, and saw a group of people in red sleeves riding bicycles entering the village.
When they saw them, Li Yun and others' expressions changed.
When Weisheng and Li Yun were taking the carpenter to the cowshed, they saw those men in red sleeves go to Old Qian's house and drag Old Mrs. Qian out of the house without any care.
Thinking about what Old Lady Qian had been saying these past two days, everyone guessed why Old Lady Qian fell into the hands of those red-sleeved gangsters.
Those who understand will understand.
It's a pity that people who haven't experienced it themselves won't believe that ghosts really exist in this world...
