The pond surface is dark, dark and lusterless, like an irregular ink block at the village head.

"The pond is not very deep, but the mud is very thick. When I was very young, a big bull fell in and didn't come out. People in the Shuitang village dare not approach, even dogs and cats do not walk from the side. How can Xiaoju come here in a good way? " He an asked strangely.

"Something's wrong!" I glanced around and said, "you see, behind the pond is a flat land, and there are deep puddles on both sides, but how can it not overflow at all, just like it is fixed here? Even the surrounding soil is dry, there is no water stain, and there is no grass! "

"That's what I remember." He an explained: "no matter how heavy the rain is, the pond will not rise, nor will the dry Tianshui pond be rare."

I nodded: "the Yin in the pond is very heavy, even worse than some big tombs of thousands of years. There must be something strange here! Who else in your village comes here often? "

"It's so far away from the village, and it's black and smelly. Who will Oh, yes! " He an suddenly cried: "Uncle Qin, the father of Xiaoju. He often sits here to drink, but he was shot for murder many years ago. No one came here except him. "

Xiaoju is what happened here. The only one who came here often before was her dead father.

The combination of these two things is not so simple!

He an seemed to think of something and pushed his glasses up: "you mean, it's probably the curse his father gave her before he died?"

"It's possible, but it's unlikely. After all, it's his own daughter. Even if he's a murderer, he's unlikely to set up such a vicious and long-term plan to frame his daughter. But it's most likely that he's involved. By the way, who did he kill? " I asked.

"It's a Ranger. At that time, I was young, and I didn't know exactly what the situation was. My father never mentioned it to me, nor did the villagers He an thought.

It seems that this matter involves an old case.

"Is there anyone left in the victim's house?" I continued.

"No, the Ranger moved to the village temporarily. It's said that he is an orphan. His parents died early and there are no brothers or sisters. Besides, even if he really has any relatives, there is no revenge. Uncle Qin has been shot. Xiaoju was only six years old at the beginning. Besides, it has been so many years since then, which is not likely to be caused by this old case. "

He an analyzed it, and then concluded, "is it possible that the black water pond has been out of light all the year round, and there are some ghosts and monsters growing up. Xiaoju happened to pass by, and what dirty things have been stained?"

"By no means." I shook my head: "the fire snake bug is not a dirty thing, but a real magic, that is to say, she must have been hurt by someone. It seems that if you want to solve the mystery of your family, you really need to start from this old case... "

I took out my mobile phone, turned on the flash, and looked at it carefully in the black water pond.

There was no grass on the edge of the pond, and there was no trace of animal claws. Apart from the Yin Qi everywhere, there was no special discovery. I had to go back with he an.

His parents are still in front of Xiaoju's bed.

Xiaoju is sleeping in a daze, but her eyebrows are still tightly wrinkled, as if she saw something terrible in her sleep.

I asked his mother to cook a bowl of ginger soup for her, put more salt and garlic, and drink it after she woke up. Then he called his father to another room and asked him about heishuitang and Xiaoju's father!

Father he didn't want to mention this story at first, but when I heard about it, it probably had something to do with the murderer behind Xiaoju's murder, and even the God of his family's protection, which made him sigh a lot.

At that time, old Qin was very dull and honest, and he would not say anything to others.

But his wife, that is, Xiaoju's mother, is very shrewd. She scolds him all day and says he has no ability and can't earn money.

Old Qin was forced to go out to work with the villagers.

When he came back at the end of the year, he found that his wife and the Ranger were getting better.

Old Qin was very depressed, but such a scandal could not be said, so he had to borrow wine to relieve his worries and sit on the edge of the black water pond everyday.

Finally one day, old Qin blocked the two people who were fooling around. Then he chopped the forest ranger alive with several axes.

Old Qin didn't run either, so he sat upright and drank in the pool of blood

"The influence of that event is very bad, but Xiaoju is innocent. I think the child is very poor, so I adopted her and asked the villagers not to mention her again. After all these years... "

"And the mother of Daisy?" I interposed.

"On the day of old Qin's killing, he didn't hurt her. Maybe he wanted to leave her to raise Xiaoju! She was seen running out in her hair and then disappeared. No one has ever seen it again. " Father he sighed, woke up from the memory of the past, looked at me and said, "does this matter have anything to do with Xiaoju's strange disease?""It matters!" I'm pretty sure: "the problem is in the black water pond!"

"I've just checked it. It's very cloudy and cold in the whole village. The fire snake venom in Xiaoju is the skill of extreme Yin, and only in this place can the venom be hidden. What's more, just now I heard you say that I have a conjecture - at that time, Xiaoju's mother must have jumped into the black pool instead of going out of the village. "

"Into the black pool?" He's also surprised, and then said: "we had such a guess at that time, and even went to salvage it, but we didn't find anything. Besides, Xiaoju is her own daughter. Why do you want to kill her daughter?"

"Uncle he, the black water pool has become a place to hide dirt and absorb ghosts. You can't let it go anyway. It's better to take this opportunity to clean it up completely. Otherwise, it will harm the villagers! This time, it's Xiaoju who is poisoned. With the protection of your family, other villagers may not be so lucky! " I advised.

He's father nodded: "we always think the water pool is very strange, but there is no good way. If you really have an idea, I'll discuss it with you tomorrow."
