But he soon laughed again, just like what Lao Ga said, "There is always a smile on his face."
"I have said so much, just to let you know that there was a collision between the two sides, but it was a pure misunderstanding. Who would kill someone for this little thing? Meiying is even more impossible. She didn't even know what happened last night. Moreover, she has been weak and sick since she was a child, and she didn't even have the strength to kill chickens. If you stretched your neck for her to kill, she didn't know where to start."
"If you think I'm right and can accept it, then I will continue. If you can't, then there are still questions, just ask."
He stopped here, moved his shoulders and neck, and then moved his butt. If he hadn't been tied up, he would have probably had to get up to stretch.
The most important thing has not been mentioned yet, Meng Qianzi signaled Jiang Lian to continue.
Jiang Lian didn't hide it: "We have lived here for a while. On heavy rainy nights, I would go over and try to fish for lantern paintings, but it was difficult. I couldn't catch it most of the time. I could only catch some fragments on a few times - just like a TV screen, which only shows a small part of it."
"Last night, it was actually a big improvement. At least I saw the whole image. But the same problem occurs every time: those images flashed rapidly at first, making people unable to see clearly, and then they stuck on one, which was the one that scared you..."
He smiled at Xin Ci: "The woman in white crawling on the ground is a stuck picture. If you don't extinguish the flashlight, you will find that she has been repeating the same movements: crawling and raising her hand. If the picture is normal, you should see where she finally crawled and fell to the ground."
Xin Ci uncomfortably relaxed the collar: He only watched that scene once last night, and his heart was so palpitations that he didn't expect it to be broadcast in a loop.
Speaking of this, Jiang Lian looked at Meng Qianzi: "You also know that you can call it a lantern painting and call it a mountain mirage. You should be quite familiar with it? The mountain mirage is indeed like this... elusive and very unstable?"
Of course not. The reason is that the quality of this mirage bead is too poor. A good mirage bead can not only show a full image, but also listen to the sound. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is "immersive".
However, outsiders don't need to know about this kind of thing.
Meng Qianzi nodded.
Jiang Lian was a little disappointed, smiled bitterly, and continued to say: "Because it was a flash, I couldn't remember it after watching it, so I could only think of a solution afterwards."
Meng Jinsong's mind flashed, and suddenly remembered an anecdote I had heard before, and blurted out: "How can you touch the divine eyes?"
***
The eyes of the gods are a skill that has been passed down in the old society. It means that a person's eyes are good. No matter how chaotic the scene or how quickly the change is, he can "not forget it" by just one glance, and retelling or even copying it. At first glance, it sounds similar to the functions of modern cameras.
This kind of ability is not available to ordinary people. The older generation thinks it is borrowing the eyes of gods, so they call it "the eyes of gods".
In fact, there is no divine eye that can be borrowed and posted, it has been rigorously trained.
In short, choose the seedlings and start practicing from the most basic ones. First put two times two and four different pictures to let you look at them, then pull down the cover and ask you to repeat the position of each picture. After this level is passed, you have to repeat the content of each picture, and then add the pictures, three times three nine, four times four hundred and sixteen. In short, one level is more complicated than the first level. To put it bluntly, it has nothing to do with the eyes, it is a brain job, the most clever shorthand.
It is said that when I practiced to the best, I don’t know which area of my brain was developed. I was in a daze and my consciousness was completely trapped in the target situation, which was similar to sleepwalking, but the sleepwalking was the body, and this kind of movement was the consciousness - as long as I had a brush in my hand, I could copy the picture. The slowest one was the fine brush, and every stroke, even the micro-expressions on the face were vivid, which was too exhausting; the fastest one was the color, and quickly applied with different colors to roughly restore the scene I saw.
However, everything has a reason to rise and fall. People with divine eyes have the ultimate consciousness and their bodies are relatively fragile. To put it bluntly, they have no defense, so someone has to take care of them just in case.
In addition, there are two taboos for sticking to the divine eyes. One is to avoid loud noises. Once a person is disturbed, the "awake" process is very painful for the person involved. They usually have to punch and kick, and the water is hot, so Meng Qianzi makes people "awaken" Jiang Lian, but it is a coincidence. The second is to avoid doing it at night. It is said that the night should be the quietest time, but most ancient people are superstitious, believing that the night is yin, and hundreds of ghosts walk at night. People with divine eyes are "the soul leaves the body". If the soul is unfortunately taken away by the wild ghost when it is floating outside, the rest is just a walking corpse.
This skill has declined before liberation, not entirely because of technology replacement: good embryos are hard to find, and those with ordinary qualifications will be in vain no matter how hard they work.
Jiang Lian was unfamiliar with these old names: "Is this called 'stic eye'? My godfather called it 'please ask for 'stic eye', it's almost the same."
Every time he finished fishing a painting, he would find a way to copy it as it was. He could not draw it at night and was prone to noisy during the day. He usually chose in the afternoon when the village was quieter. Lao Ga made a face-shell, and he would inevitably chisel and knock when doing work. Therefore, he often used Kuang Meiying as an excuse, such as "Miying was uncomfortable in body" and "afraid of quarrel when he fell asleep", so he asked Lao Ga to whisper. Fortunately, Lao Ga was born without curiosity and said whatever he said. He had been in peace for so long and never had any trouble.
Meng Qianzi had never seen such things as being exposed to the divine eyes, but since childhood, several aunts have loved to tell her some anecdotes about the old society. She really heard a lot: If Jiang Lian was really looking at the divine eyes, Liu Sheng was killed, it would not be possible to get involved with him.
However, there are still some details that need to be clarified.
"When you look at the divine eyes, why did you let Kuang Meiying guard you, not Wei Biao?"
Wei Biao and Kong Wu are powerful, they are really the best candidate for bodyguards, and they are the kind of like Meiying...
When Meng Qianzi thought of the scene where she fainted by being scared, she couldn't help but feel disdainful: Mountain ghosts admired the strong, and have never admired the weak.
Jiang Lian's answer was beyond her expectations: "Although Wei Biao is with us, he doesn't know this secret. He is like Lao Ga, thinking that we are here just to find the clan and ancestors."
With only three people, their relationship is quite complicated and interesting. Meng Qianzi distorted the point for a while: It can be seen that people's hearts are hard to predict and the team is difficult to lead. It is really not easy for him to be a good mountain ghost family.
"So, from the moment I put my eyes on the divine, I knew nothing about everything that happened. I didn't know how your people died. Fortunately, I got the approval of Mr. Meng before I came up..."
He turned his head and signaled Meng Jinsong's direction: "I talked to Meiying and asked about the situation at that time."
"She was so scared that she was sure she wasn't talking crazy?"
Jiang Lian laughed again.
Since entering the house, he has laughed too much. Meng Qianzi felt that laughing to him was either a habit or a weapon. Some people would use gentle smiles to show that they are harmless to reduce their opponent's guard. She intuitively felt that Jiang Lian was the latter, or perhaps both.
He said: "Meiying was the root of the disease she fell in when she was a child. She couldn't stand the stimulation and fright, and she often fainted. It's commonplace. But don't worry, she can still hear her words."
"And, I heard that she was shocked by you. I wonder if you noticed that there is a characteristic when she was shocked?"
Meng Qianzi was not angry.
That woman was dizzy and didn't even have any signs. What are the characteristics of the woman?
Jiang Lian probably knew that she was not in the mood to shoot the video, and she revealed the answer to the mystery herself: "When Meiying fainted, she would not scream. Usually she fainted silently. Being able to scream means she could bear it psychologically - you rushed over after hearing the screams, and took it for granted that she was screaming when she saw the corpse, but it was not. When she saw the corpse for the first time, she was too frightened and fainted directly. She was already a little mentally prepared after she woke up. "
Meng Qianzi's heart moved: Jiang Lian seemed to be emphasizing that there is a time difference here, but is this very important?
Jiang Lian let out a long sigh, and finally layed the groundwork. He could tell his inferences.
"The real murderer, killed your people at the stairs, and then he brought the body over and leaned against the door face inside. This is why there was a pool of blood dripping at the door. Meiying kept guarding me. When she heard the knock on the door, she was afraid that I would be disturbed, so she hurried over to the door. As soon as she opened the door, the blood corpse smashed her head towards her. She was so scared that she fainted without even shouting."
"Mr. Meng kept asking me where your chain was. Actually, I just put it on the table. If I couldn't find it, it might be taken away by the murderer. The reason why I emphasized that Meiying fainted was because if she didn't faint at that time and screamed immediately, you rushed over quickly. The time was too tight, and the person would not enter the house, nor would he feel like looking for something, but would immediately find an opportunity to escape."
"But Meiying's fainting gave him an opportunity. In addition, no one could see him in the house, so there was no one. He had enough time to search for the chain and wake Meiying up before escaping. I asked Mr. Meng, and he said that as soon as he entered the house, he saw that my desk was very messy, the paper was not complete, and the pens were also arranged in a mess. Meiying was a very organized person. Every time he delivered the brushes to me, they would be neatly arranged. The table was so messy, which even more suggests that someone had turned over."
"And that's right, Mr. Meng said, your people set up a sentry on a high place. I guess that the murderer should have entered the house before setting up a sentry. After getting off the sentry, he might still be there, maybe hiding on the first floor when you rushed over, but you all went to the second floor and ignored other places. He knew that you lost the chain, otherwise he wouldn't look for the chain - that chain seems nothing special to me, and ordinary thieves won't catch sight of him, but he took it away. This further shows that he was coming for you. You can refer to what I said and check for possible suspects."
Speaking of this, a truly relaxed look appeared on his face, and he struggled with a rope to remind Meng Qianzi that he was still treated unfairly: "Look, if the misunderstanding is explained clearly, you must also arrange a pursuit as soon as possible. Can my friends and I..."
Meng Qianzi sneered: "Did you miss something?"
Is there any? Jiang Lian frowned.
"Where is my chain?"
"I was taken away by that man. Anyway, if you want to chase the murderer, if you chase him, it will be like chasing him."
Meng Qianzi said: "I believe it, but you snatched my chain and were stolen by a thief. You transferred to 18 provinces and changed to 19 companies. Do I have to look for each family? I only stared at you, you will come back if you took it away."
Jiang Lian didn't say anything anymore. The chain was indeed his pot and he had no choice but to wash it.
He thought about it and then, and hugged a little lucky: This woman looks quite stylish, maybe she was angry that she was injured last night, so she came here with such a big fanfare. Now that she has died, she would not really have the intention to keep a chain in sight. It is mostly because she took advantage of the problem and wanted to make things difficult for him.
Therefore, his attitude is very important. He has to use a smile to face his sharpness. He also needs to make some blood: spend money to eliminate disasters, use softness to overcome hardness, and cannot be broken.
He made a tentative suggestion: "Or, how much does your chain cost? 30,000 or 50,000, if you make a request, I am willing to compensate you for your losses."
He had seen the material of the chain. It was definitely not a precious metal. Even if it was a designer's model, it was tens of thousands of yuan. He compensated several times the compensation, just as he was cheated, spending money to eliminate disasters, and by the way, he also showed how sincere he was.
The room suddenly became quiet.
It was so quiet that you could faintly hear the voices of people on the other end of the mountain cave. A cow mooed not far away, maybe he was not full.
What does it mean? Jiang Lian was a little uneasy: Could it be that he was too bold?
He suddenly regretted: What did he say when Mr. Gan told him about those things in the Tao? "The wealth is not revealed", and he just needs 30,000 or 50,000 yuan at will. Isn't it a bit too ostentatious? Should he make up for the loss and explain that the money was earned by his hard work?
Meng Qianzi only came back to the point of being as the voice approached. It was really fresh. It was the first time someone had to spend money to "set" her.
She felt that the best response was not to respond, so she turned to ask Meng Jinsong: "What's the voice?"
"I was worried that something would happen, so I transferred someone to come."
The support came, which meant that the mountain was full of his own people. Meng Qianzi was even more arrogant and too lazy to talk to Jiang Lianfei anymore: "This is not a bargaining, you took it away, you will send it back."
She stood up and wanted to leave: "Your accomplice, let me lie to you, when will the goods be delivered, and when will the people come and get them."
Jiang Lian suspected that he had heard it wrong: "Why?"
Why? She can do whatever she wants, and why?
Meng Qianzi ignored him and ordered Meng Jinsong: "Arrang to clear the market, take away what should be taken away, and send someone to repair the house if there is a broken place. Don't let people say that we mountain ghosts are not authentic in doing things."
Jiang Lian was so angry that his teeth were itchy, but his face was still not exposed. His hands behind him slowly moved the knot on his wrist. From the moment he woke up, he had never relaxed his unbuttoned. With his ability, it shouldn't be so hard, but the tie-up method of these people was very strange. It was not the same as the commonly used square knots, backhand knots, fisherman knots, and climbing knots, which made him try again and again. On several occasions, he even used the guise of moving his shoulders and necks, and struggled and pulled.
He saw that this matter could not be solved by reason alone. Why is she? Of course, the situation is better than him, but it is not that difficult to reverse: this woman is the leader, as long as she controls her, she is not afraid that she will not let go...
After loosening his wrist, the rope was finally untied.
