Chapter 3 unravels 第3章抽丝剥茧 „Does not use, I have arrived.” The voice of man resounds together suddenly. “不用了,我已经到了。”一道男子的声音骤然响起。 Wang Changsheng walked, Wang Quisheng follows in his behind. 王长生走了进来,王秋生跟在他的后面。 „Obsolete is Wang Family town's Town Head Wang Qingyun, pays a visit Celestial Master.” Wang Qingyun bows a ritual to Wang Changsheng, respectful sound said. “老朽是王家镇的镇长王青云,拜见天师。”王青云冲王长生躬身一礼,恭声说道。 „Pays a visit Celestial Master.” “拜见天师。” Other Wang Family clansmen see this situation, salutes in abundance. 其他王家族人见此情形,纷纷行礼。 „A pen cannot write two king character, has no need to look on as an outsider, says account to me!” Wang Changsheng beckons with the hand, benign saying. “一支笔写不出两个王字,用不着这么见外,给我说一说事情的经过吧！”王长生摆了摆手,和颜悦色的说道。 Wang Qingyun nods, looks to Wang Quisheng. 王青云点头,望向王秋生。 Wang Quisheng understands the meaning of Wang Qingyun, explained: „Third Uncle, Ninth Great Uncle knows Wang Family town to be haunted, the food cannot attend to eating, immediately caught up.” 王秋生明白了王青云的意思,解释道:“三叔,九叔公得知王家镇闹鬼,饭都顾不上吃,马上就赶来了。” Wang Qingyun understands, respectful sound said: „Ninth Uncle, was what is all about, half a month ago, the clansman was discovered in the morning died in home, the body did not have the slight scar, thinks was the homicide, the nephew then made Tianlong Tianhu they arrest the murderer/culprit, but they did not have the clue, the case has not progressed, the following half a month, had the clansman to be murdered one after another, the nephew then realized wonderfully, quickly does not send people the Flying Pigeon to pass on the book to inform Ninth Uncle, never expected that Ninth Uncle caught up quickly.” 王青云心领神会,恭声说道:“九叔,是这么一回事,半个月前,有一名族人早上被发现死在家中,身上没有丝毫伤痕,原本以为是凶杀案,侄儿便让天龙天虎他们缉拿真凶,不过他们一直没有头绪,案子没有进展,接下来的半个月,陆续有族人遇害,侄儿这才意识到不妙,急忙派人飞鸽传书通知九叔,没想到九叔这么快就赶过来了。” Listens to the statement of Wang Qingyun, Wang Changsheng to frown, dignified asking: „You said a moment ago, has the clansman to be murdered one after another? Murder is the Wang Family clansmen?” 听完王青云的陈述,王长生皱起眉头,神情凝重的问道:“你刚才说,陆续有族人遇害？遇害的都是王家族人？” This matter the Wang Changsheng imagination is more serious, Wang Family town presents ghost is not anything, if some people are aiming at Wang Family, the nature was different. 这件事比王长生想象的还要严重,王家镇出现鬼物不算什么,若是有人在针对王家,性质就不一样了。 „Right, so far, altogether nine clansmen are murdered, without exception, the dead are the evening are murdered, dies in home, the trace that the corpse scar, has not fought slightly, the nephew then realized, the murderer is very possible is ghost.” “没错,到目前为止,一共有九名族人遇害,无一例外,死者都是晚上遇害,都是死在家中,尸体没有丝毫伤痕,没有打斗的痕迹,侄儿这才意识到,凶手很可能是鬼物。” Wang Changsheng deeply frowned, according to the view of Wang Qingyun, the murderer was ghost has not definitely run. 王长生眉头紧锁,按照王青云的说法,凶手肯定是鬼物没跑了。 As far as he knows, the ghost natural disposition likes taking the living person essence to return nurturing to parents itself, if the essence of living person were taken too much, the life has the danger. 据他所知,鬼物生性喜欢吸食活人精气反哺自身,活人的精气若是被吸食过多,性命有危。 This only ghost possibly is a local area, possibly external, the former is good, the latter troubled. 这只鬼物可能是本地的,也可能是外来的,前者还好,后者就麻烦了。 Wang Changsheng thinks, asked: „Does Wang Family town have the mass grave? Does do you have specially strange matter happen?” 王长生想了想,问道:“王家镇有乱葬岗么？或者有没有特别奇怪的事情发生？” „This town/subdues does not have the mass grave, our ancestors will have Immortal Cultivator, the mass grave will have agglomerated the gloom, will be very easy to present ghost, if after some people die, unmanned burying, the nephew will send people to burn down the corpse, will not allow to bury randomly buries randomly, recently also had no strange matter to happen!” Returning of Wang Qingyun in full detail said. “本镇没有乱葬岗,咱们祖上出过修仙者,乱葬岗会积聚阴气,很容易出现鬼物,若是有人死后无人埋葬,侄儿会派人将尸体烧掉,绝不允许乱埋葬乱葬,最近也没有什么奇怪的事情发生！”王青云一五一十的回道。 „It is not right, Third Great Uncle, one month ago, tofu beauty Xiaofeng was missing.” Short and stout bailiff slightly one hesitant, the reminder said. “不对,三伯公,一个多月前,豆腐西施小凤失踪了。”矮胖捕快略一犹豫,提醒道。 The Wang Changsheng knitting the brows head , the sinking sound asked: „Missing? Now hadn't found the person? What origin is this tofu beauty? Also is the Wang Family clansman?” 王长生皱了皱眉头,沉声问道:“失踪了？现在还没找到人么？这个豆腐西施是什么来历？也是王家族人么？” „It is not, Ninth Uncle, Xiaofeng is not the Wang Family clansman, her year fragrance 18, are long quite water spirit, in the family/home also the blind old ladies, Xiaofeng sell the tofu to live, had a tofu Xi Shi's nickname, one month ago, Xiaofeng does not set up a stall suddenly, because her mother is weak, Xiaofeng must take care of her mother, sometimes does not set up a stall, everyone has not found it strange, after several days, in the Xiaofeng family/home transmits the odor, Tianhu visits, this discovered that Xiaofeng her mother died, but Xiaofeng actually at home, the nephew did not send people to look for some time, did not find Xiaofeng, on. The corpse burnt down.” “不是,九叔,小凤不是王家族人,她年芳十八,长得比较水灵,家里还有一个瞎眼的老娘,小凤贩卖豆腐为生,被人起了一个豆腐西施的外号,一个多月前,小凤突然不出摊了,因为她娘体弱多病,小凤要照顾她娘,有时候不出摊,大家也没觉得奇怪,直到数日后,小凤家里传来恶臭,天虎上门,这才发现小凤她娘死掉了,不过小凤却不在家,侄儿派人找了一段时间,也没有找到小凤,就把尸体烧掉了。” „How does Xiaofeng her mother die?” “小凤她娘是怎么死的？” „After the medical examiner examination, her mother starved to death, Xiaofeng is bound by a common destiny with her mother since childhood, she is impossible to throw down her mother, this case checked for a month not to have the clue, let it go, shortly after Xiaofeng her mother died, had the clansman to be murdered.” “经仵作检验,她娘是被饿死的,小凤从小跟她娘相依为命,她不可能丢下她娘,这件案子查了一个多月都没有头绪,也就不了了之了,小凤她娘死后没多久,就有族人遇害了。” „Third Great Uncle, was not Xiaofeng her mother will come back to ask us to revenge! We have not harmed her! The year before last in the Xiaofeng family/home went hungry, I gave back to her to send to ten jin (0.5 kg) rice! She died harmed us, returned evil for good.” Wang Tianhu somewhat discontented saying. “三伯公,不会是小凤她娘回来找我们报仇了吧！我们生前没有害过她啊！前年小凤家里揭不开锅,我还给她送去十斤白米呢！她死了就来害我们,恩将仇报。”王天虎有些不满的说道。 Wang Qingyun stared Wang Tianhu one, unrestrained/no trace of politeness reproved: „You also had a face saying that you coerced Xiaofeng, wants to make her marry you, Xiaofeng did not comply, didn't that ten jin (0.5 kg) rice take by you?” 王青云瞪了王天虎一眼,毫不客气的训斥道:“你还有脸说,你要挟小凤,想让她嫁给你,小凤不答应,那十斤白米还不是被你拿回去了？” „Has this matter?” Wang Changsheng looks to Wang Tianhu, the whole face doubts. “有这事？”王长生望向王天虎,满脸疑惑。 Wang Tianhu sees Wang Changsheng to look, complexion one tight, said honestly: „Has this matter, but I had not pestered Xiaofeng afterward again, cannot, because this matter comes back to ask us to revenge! Pockmarked Li also peeps Xiaofeng to take a bath! If her mother turns into ghost to come back to revenge, how to look for Pockmarked Li? Pockmarked Li now also live well!” 王天虎看到王长生望来,脸色一紧,老实说道:“是有这事,不过我后来没有再纠缠小凤了,总不能因为这事就回来找我们报仇吧！李二麻子还偷看过小凤洗澡呢！要是她娘变成鬼物回来报仇,怎么不找李二麻子？李二麻子现在还活的好好的呢！” „Pockmarked Li? Sends people to look for him, I have the words to ask him.” “李二麻子？派人把他找来,我有话要问他。” Wang Qingyun nods, told to middle-aged man: „Qiuxian, you go welcome to come to here Pockmarked Li.” 王青云点头,冲身边的中年男子吩咐道:“秋贤,你去把李二麻子请到这里来。” The middle-aged man complied with one, turns around to leave. 中年男子应了一声,转身离开。 The Wang Changsheng hesitation moment, then asked: 王长生沉吟片刻,接着问道: „Before Xiaofeng is missing, what strange matter has had? What indication or has?” “小凤失踪前,发生过什么奇怪的事情么？或者说有什么征兆么？” Wang Qingyun shakes the head, looks to others, asked: „Do you know? Knows that told Ninth Uncle, dares to conceal the facts, punished mercilessly.” 王青云摇了摇头,望向其他人,问道:“你们知道么？知道就告诉九叔,敢隐瞒事实,严惩不贷。” „Does not know.” “不知道。” The Wang Family clansman on the scene shakes the head, saying with one voice. 在场的王家族人直摇头,异口同声的说道。 They have oneself life, is impossible to stare at Xiaofeng daily. 他们有自己的生活,不可能天天盯着小凤。 Wang Changsheng looks to Wang Tianhu, said: „You! You like Xiaofeng, knows?” 王长生望向王天虎,道:“你呢！你喜欢小凤,知不知道？” Wang Tianhu shakes the head, earnest saying: „grandchild usually works in the yamen, is impossible to stare at Xiaofeng daily, before sought a marriage alliance the failure, in the family/home gives to say a marriage, I just got married, where also dares to provoke Xiaofeng.” 王天虎直摇头,认真的说道:“孙儿平日在衙门做事,不可能天天盯着小凤,之前求亲失败,家里给说了一门亲事,我刚成亲,哪里还敢去招惹小凤。” At this time, Wang Qiuxian led the middle-aged man who on a face is covered with the person with a pockmarked face to walk. 这个时候,王秋贤带着一名脸上长满麻子的中年男子走了进来。 The face of middle-aged man long like long face, pair of eyes strange little, on the additional upper eyelid is covered with the person with a pockmarked face again, a dirty feeling. 中年男子的脸长如马脸,双眼奇小,再加上脸上长满麻子,给人一种龌龊的感觉。 Wang Changsheng looks to the middle-aged man, knits the brows to ask: „Are you Pockmarked Li? Does missing of Xiaofeng relate with your do you have?” 王长生望向中年男子,皱眉问道:“你就是李二麻子？小凤的失踪跟你有没有关系？” „Black fat people had asked several times, how also did ask? Said that are not related with me, the father is peeps she to take a bath, but she is missing with father pi relates does not have.” Pockmarked Li grins, reveals mouth yellow tooth, making the will of the people become fed up wickedly. “黑胖子都问过好几次了,怎么还问？都说跟我没关系,老子是偷看过她洗澡,可她失踪跟老子屁关系都没有。”李二麻子咧咧嘴,露出一嘴黄牙,让人心生厌恶。 „Pockmarked Li, puts cleanly the mouth, before you, is my Ninth Great Uncle.” A Wang Qiuxian brow wrinkle, reproving unrestrained/no trace of politeness. “李二麻子,把嘴放干净点,在你面前的,是我九叔公。”王秋贤眉头一皱,毫不客气的训斥道。 „Your Ninth Great Uncle is not father's Ninth Great Uncle, the adoptive father trifling thing!” Pockmarked Li thinks otherwise. “你的九叔公又不是老子的九叔公,干老子屁事！”李二麻子不以为然。 Wang Tianhu complexion cold, is gloomy the face saying: „Pockmarked Li, I urged you to put cleanly the mouth, nine paternal great-grandfathers asked your anything, you replied honestly, wants to have the firm food to speak frankly.” 王天虎的脸色冷了下来,阴沉着脸说道:“李二麻子,我劝你把嘴放干净点,九曾祖问你什么,你就老实回答,想吃牢饭就直说。” Listened to this saying, saying that Pockmarked Li some do not prefer: „Has what words to ask! I guarantee the honest reply.” 听了这话,李二麻子有些不情愿的说道:“有什么话就问吧！我保证老实回答。” (本章完)
