On the day of great joy, her parents and relatives suddenly passed away, and Hua Rou was stunned by this sudden blow.
She was grief-stricken and at a loss, but when she heard Lao Si and Lao Wu's words, she suddenly realized that she had overlooked the common posture information on the corpses! This is the key to finding out the cause of death and uncovering the truth!
Hua Ruo thought back to the scene she had just witnessed: covering her chest, that's right! Father was also covering his chest, and so were all their relatives! What about Mother? Mother had been...
She was still thinking about the situation at that time, and Lao Wu, who was checking on Xi Po's condition, suddenly stiffened his body, also covering his chest with his hand, and then fell onto Xi Po's body without making any sound.
The crowd, already in a state of shock and unease, was frightened by the successive deaths to the point where they didn't even dare to breathe loudly, each covering their mouths and noses, as silent as cicadas in winter.
Lao Si suddenly jumped up and pointed at Hua Rou, loudly questioning her: "What did you do to them?"
Hua Rou was already stunned, facing the sudden questioning, she instinctively waved her hand and shook her head: "It wasn't me, I...I didn't do anything..."
"It's you! Everyone who has touched you..."
However, Lao Si's words were not finished, and his hand also covered his chest. He stared at Hua Rou, with a painful and distorted expression, struggling hard to open his mouth to try to accuse something, but ultimately not a single word came out again, and he fell onto the body of the official, dying on the spot.
In an instant, the successive deaths of the four people shocked the entire courtyard crowd into a state of soul loss.
They were terrified, they were restless, their eyes filled with a desperate longing for life, and they all stared blankly at Hua Rou.
The flower gently faced a pair of eyes, flustered and uneasy, stuttering to defend herself: "It wasn't me... really wasn't..."
"Murder!" someone broke the silence.
"The monster is killing people!" someone shouted in terror and ran outside.
"Don't kill me!" Someone knelt down with weak legs.
In the midst of this wailing and screaming, the villagers rushed to the gate in a state of panic, as if they were trying to escape from hell.
Hua Ruo's face turned pale and she looked confused and helpless, she didn't understand what had happened to cause the continuous deaths here, nor did she understand why everyone suddenly questioned her.
But just then she saw the silver hairpin that her father had left behind.
Her heart skipped a beat, Hua Rou stared at the silver hairpin and rushed towards her father's corpse.
There must be an answer, she was certain that silver hairpin would give her a clue.
But just as she was about to reach the corpse of Old Man Flower, she was struck on the head by a piece of wood and everything went black.
Hua Rou fell onto her father's corpse, behind her were the terrified villagers holding wooden clubs and shouting: "She is a demon, anyone who touches her or her family members will die!"
……
The flower-like girl, Yurou, lay unconscious on the ground in the courtyard, beside her crouched a shaman with disheveled hair, wearing animal hides and painted with eerie colors.
The village chief and villagers were all outside the courtyard, some climbing up the wall, others squeezing at the gate, keeping a distance and cautiously looking inside.
The sorcerer mumbled a few dazed and confused lyrics, slowly got up, walked towards the gate of the courtyard, the villagers immediately retreated in horror, while the village head with a childish tail on his head stayed put.
"How...how is it?" The tongue and teeth were fighting, revealing the leader's courage.
"Evil spirit possession." The witch frowned, her face bitter.
"Yao Xie?" The camp owner's voice changed tone, and his body also became stiff.
"It's a demonic creature that specializes in taking people's souls, if we don't hurry up and subdue it, everyone in the entire village will die within three days!"
The village master's eyes widened upon hearing this: "What? This demon is still being suppressed? It must be killed, that's the only way!"
The witch shook her head: "You can't kill it, it's inhabiting this girl's body. If you kill this girl, the demon will find another host! At that time, the entire mountain village will still be without life."
The village master swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his legs trembling with fear: "That... what can be done to save the entire village?"
The wizard turned his head and took a look at Hua Rou, but didn't say anything.
The villagers around knelt down in a flurry, one after another, kowtowing and begging for help.
"Master, please save us!"
"Master, we don't want to die!"
"Please, just calm down! We're begging you! We'll be your slaves if that's what it takes!"
In the villagers' pleading voices, the sorcerer slowly turned his head to look at the kneeling villagers, with a sorrowful expression: "A way, of course there is one, it's just that you... may not be ruthless enough, if the method goes wrong, then..."
The village owner hastily interrupted: "Master, rest assured, this is a matter of life and death, we will absolutely not act rashly!"
The villagers all nodded in agreement, their devout attitude was so sincere that it seemed as if they would dig out their hearts!
The witch nodded in satisfaction and tossed her hair: "Then go prepare what I want!"
