Chapter 1475 Sacrifice
"Don't look her in the eye.
Jiang Cheng's voice suddenly sounded. Tang Qisheng was startled, and then shook his head violently. He didn't even notice that he was absent-minded for a moment.
He took the painting off the wall and spread it on the table. For the sake of safety, Tang Qisheng, who had already suffered a loss, picked up a rag from the ground and covered Xiuling's eyes.
Sure enough, the feeling of being watched disappeared now. Tang Qisheng was frightened and couldn't help but feel a little excited. It seemed that there was indeed something wrong with this painting, and this just proved that their investigation direction was correct.
As both painters, the first thing that attracted Jiang Cheng was the composition and brushstrokes in the paintings. Jiang Cheng's skills were extremely high, and he could often outline the desired picture with just a few strokes of detail. It is no exaggeration to say that in a dim environment, Below, the entire painting inadvertently looks like a photograph.
Touching the painting unconsciously with his hand, he frowned. The material of the painting paper was much rougher and thicker than he imagined. He turned the painting over curiously. The next second, he and Tang Qisheng were stunned. , there is actually another painting behind this painting!
What surprised them even more was that this painting was exactly the same as the one on the front!
Grandpa was sitting on the Taishi chair, with Xiuling standing beside him.
But why are there two drawings of the same painting, or... Or are they on the front and back of the same drawing paper?
However, as the two of them concentrated their attention, they soon discovered the clues. Jiang Cheng stared at Grandpa's face, while Tang Qisheng was so nervous that his breathing stopped. There were indeed differences between the two paintings, and The difference is also important, because the old man in the painting on the back is not Grandpa at all!
This is an old man who is dressed the same as grandpa. His body shape is 8 or 9 points similar. The old man is also smiling, with a chill in his smile.
"This...this is not Grandpa!" Tang Qisheng trembled for a moment, then quickly reacted in the next second, "No, no, this is the real Grandpa!"
Looking at the strange old man in the painting, Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and said coldly: "It seems that he is the extra person in the team."
"If the guess is correct, the real grandpa, the strange old man in the painting, has long since died. The villagers found an old man whose body shape was 8 or 9 minutes like him from nowhere, and then through some strange means, The false grandpa was sacrificed, and the real grandpa was finally welcomed back.”
Although it sounds unbelievable, Tang Qisheng thought about it according to Jiang Cheng's thinking and found that it was exactly the same. This also explains why after grandpa died, not only were everyone not sad, but they were also very happy in their hearts, and the funeral was so simple, because This dead person doesn't matter at all!
On the contrary, when the fake grandpa dies, the real grandpa will come back to life!
Jiang Cheng shuddered violently after thinking of this. He suddenly realized something, Li Bai! Li Bai was also targeted by those people!
The woman who came to knock on the door said something like this unintentionally: Ever since my beloved granddaughter left, I haven't seen her so happy for a long time.
Thinking of those people's strange enthusiasm for Li Bai, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. Now it seemed that those eyes were not concerned, they were clearly... clearly looking at the sacrifice!
I'm afraid that Li Bai's body shape is similar to the old man's granddaughter. As long as Li Bai is sacrificed, the old man's beloved granddaughter can come back to life!
Li Bai is the next sacrifice chosen by the villagers!
"Fuck, these ghosts..."
Tang Qisheng gritted his teeth and wanted to kill all the villagers in the village. No wonder these villagers had money to eat white rice. He was probably familiar with this kind of robbery and murder. He even suspected that the ghost fog outside was related to these villagers. Or maybe it's the mysterious ritual that can bring people back from the dead.
Now it seems that Fatty's experience last night has been explained. What he saw was the wronged soul of the fake grandpa. The wronged soul had no intention of harming him, but reminded him not to be deceived by the villagers and follow in his own footsteps.
The same goes for the purpose of pointing the fake grandpa's corpse to this painting.
Now that he knew the truth, Tang Qisheng only felt creepy when he heard the chatter and laughter coming from outside, the enthusiastic chatter and laughter between the villagers and Li Bai.
"
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment, stood up and hung the painting back on the wall intact. After confirming that there were no flaws left, he pulled Tang Qisheng away, "Let's leave first."
Climbing out of the window and closing it carefully, Jiang Cheng took Tang Qisheng back to the yard and exposed the two of them to the villagers at a clever angle. Then the two of them held tools in their hands and stood on the side of the yard. Clean slowly.
After hearing the clues Jiang Cheng brought out, the fat man was completely confused. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Thinking of Li Bai's kindness to him, the fat man clenched his huge fists and his face became fierce. If these people dared to carry Li Bai away too , then he punches one by one, as long as he is a human being, he is not weak at all.
"Don't be impulsive. It's not the time for a showdown yet." Jiang Cheng kept working in his hands, pretending to clean up, and comforting in a low voice: "Listen to me, there is a more important thing in front of us. The fake grandpa died unjustly. He I won’t take you to that place for no reason, I think there must be something to say about the open space outside the village entrance.”
"That piece of land is indeed evil. Do you still remember that when we first arrived, the villagers would rather take us around the corner than pass through the village entrance?" Zhu Jie recalled.
"Could that land be the venue for the reincarnation ceremony?" Tang Qisheng thought over and over again and expressed his guess.
Jiang Cheng nodded, "It's possible that the funeral procession was also headed in that direction, and it also brought the body of the fake grandpa. We wanted to follow and help but were rejected."
"There is one more thing, the dream Wang Fugui had." Jiang Cheng continued: "In the dream, the fake grandfather took him there and snatched the wooden sign from him."
"Yes, it was so sudden at the time that I didn't react. Then the fake grandfather grabbed the wooden sign and jumped into the bushes and suddenly disappeared."
The fat man still had lingering fears when thinking of that weird dream. He felt wronged to describe it as a dream, after all, it had affected reality to some extent.
"The wooden sign from the Marquis' Mansion... a martial arts master..."
Jiang Cheng felt that there seemed to be some connection between the two. From the fake grandfather's performance, he clearly knew the sign. Could he also be related to the Zhennan Marquis' Mansion?
After listening to Jiang Cheng's analysis, everyone fell silent. Things became more and more confusing, but the best plan now was to go to that place and see it with their own eyes.
But it's definitely not possible during the day, the villagers are keeping a close eye on these fat sheep. Jiang Cheng looked towards the entrance of the village and took a deep breath, "Put the wooden sign here tonight, I want to see if the fake grandfather will come."
