Chapter 303
I don't know what happened to him recently, why he asked such a question.
I really don't know how to answer him, Xiao Zhang was also stunned. I remember that when I first met Dachui after graduation, he was still a very optimistic and even lively person, and he was still the kind of person who was slick in front of women.
But in the blink of an eye, he became a murderer.
So was he really just in his hometown in Luo County during this period? But I remember that he said he went out to travel at that time. Was it just a cover?
"Do you believe it?"
He continued to ask me, and his eyes suddenly became a little dim.
He seemed to be looking forward to my answer.
"I don't know what you encountered, but I have experienced a lot of things and seen a lot, so I will never believe in what you said about monsters or gods."
I answered him seriously.
"No, it's not a god, it's a monster."
He said word by word, with a look of horror in his eyes.
"Have you seen it?"
Xiao Zhang asked him.
"I..."
He nodded and shook his head, as if it was difficult to answer.
He later told me that he went back to his hometown because he had to take something away from home, but by some strange coincidence, the thing was exactly what the dead father and son left behind.
"I didn't cheat it."
Zhang Dachui said, "He sold it to me back then."
At that time, the young man was a gambler and owed a lot of gambling debts, so he sold the ancestral things to me behind his father's back.
I had some spare money at the time, so I bought it. Dachui told me that at that time he really thought he had picked up a treasure, but in fact, it was just the beginning of a nightmare, everything had just begun.
He said that thing was actually alive.
Because every night, he would see the things inside come out and hurt people!
And those people looked like monsters, exactly the same as the monsters recorded in Journey to the West.
He didn't know what it was, so he kept throwing it away at home.
Until recently, I learned that the thing was said to be an ancient artifact sealed by a monk, an altar for sacrifice. If the thing was not reburied, Zhang Dachui would have nightmares all his life and be haunted by those things.
So he went back home.
However, after returning home, he found that the jar was gone.
"Did it get stolen?"
I asked.
"I don't know."
He shook his head and said that the jar was buried in the ground of his ancestral home, and no one knew about it, but it was gone.
"Then why did you become like this?"
I asked.
"And you became a murderer?"
"No, I didn't kill the person."
Zhang Dachui shook his head and said that he was wronged.
"Tell me more about it, after all, you have become a wanted criminal now, and because of this incident, you killed two lives."
So I told him how the father and son died.
"No, they killed us, those monsters." Zhang Dachui almost covered his ears, and then kowtowed on the ground in fear.
"What did you see?"
His eyes widened, his face was horrified, and he stared straight behind us.
Zhang Dachui seemed unwilling to recall the scene at that time. He trembled for a long time and fainted.
At this time, Xiao Zhang felt his pulse and said, "He was poisoned."
"What?"
I asked quickly.
"He was poisoned."
Xiao Zhang was sure, "and this is not just a simple poison, but also a poison that can make people hallucinate."
"How long has he been poisoned?"
I continued to ask.
"More than a month."
I calculated the time, and it seemed to be about the same time when Zhang Dachui contacted me.
"So how is his health now?"
I asked.
Xiao Zhang said that this kind of medicine is almost not circulated on the market, and it is a thing extracted directly from plants, and it also has an anesthetic effect.
"Where can you see this thing?"
I asked.
Xiao Zhang shook his head.
The next morning we asked a doctor to treat Dachui, but because the poisoning was strange, there was no effective antidote. He just had to take care of his body. At least his vital signs were obvious, so he was not in danger for a while.
Dachui was in a coma for several days, and the clues seemed to be broken again.
And there was no news from the captain and his group.
But just when we didn't have any clues, three hands actually took the initiative to come to the door.
"What's the matter?"
I asked him.
As expected, no one comes to the temple for no reason. He said with a smile, "I got a shocking news from my brother."
"Brother?"
"Ahem... that is, in the same industry. Of course, we still keep in touch sometimes, but don't worry, I definitely didn't do anything sneaky. I've been driving a sports car these days."
He smiled and touched his head embarrassedly.
"By the way, what news are you talking about?"
Xiao Zhang came out and asked.
"Aren't you looking for someone? My brother seems to have seen five or six people appearing in the village."
Three hands said seriously.
