【Chapter 111, Liuxi Village-17】
Newborns have conditioned reflexes as soon as they are born, including grasping reflex and pupillary light reflex. When touching the palm of the child's hand, the child will instinctively hold it; when the pupil is illuminated by a light source, the pupil of the child will immediately shrink .
This is an instinctive response to the good neurodevelopment of the human brain. In hospitals, doctors will also use this method to check the neurodevelopment of newborns. The pupillary reflex exists, indicating that the optic nerve and oculomotor nerve of this newborn girl are developing normally.
When Grandma Sun handed the child to Lin Er, she deliberately brought a candle, apparently to check the child's eyesight.
Giving drugs to pregnant women to cause fetal vision deformities is a common method used by Grandma Sun, but every pregnant woman has a different constitution, and some people are not sensitive to certain drugs, and there is a certain probability of teratogenicity, which is not 100% reliable. Obviously, Liu Hui is a rare person who is not sensitive to medicine. The medicine given to her by Grandma Sun did not affect the child in her womb.
Finding that the baby's eyesight was normal, Grandma Sun's face was a bit complicated. She took the baby from Lin Er's hand and said, "Have you decided what name to give the baby?"
Lin Er scratched his head and said with a smile, "Grandma, please help us get it."
Grandma Sun looked at the baby girl in her arms. After the little girl stopped crying, she became very well-behaved. She stretched out her two white and tender arms and fluttered around, babbling. Grandma Sun was silent for a long time. Cai whispered, "Just call her Lin Yue—Yue, which means joy. With this daughter, you and Huihui should be very happy, right?"
Lin Er nodded excitedly: "Good name! Thank you mother-in-law, I'll go see Huihui."
He picked up his daughter and rushed into the delivery room to see his wife. It took Liu Hui four hours to give birth, and she was already exhausted. Lin Er touched the bedside, held her hand tightly and said, "Huihui, thank you for your hard work."
Liu Hui looked haggard, shook her head and said, "It's not hard... Where's the child?"
He gently put his daughter into Liu Hui's arms: "It's a daughter."
Liu Hui hugged her daughter, and carefully touched the child's face with her fingers. The tender skin felt smooth to the touch, and a gentle smile appeared on Liu Hui's face. She gently held her daughter's hand, and said softly: "I don't know what our daughter looks like."
Lin Er laughed and said, "Our daughter must be very cute!"
Xiaoqing stood beside her, watching this warm scene with a blank expression on her face.
The old lady Qin got up and said, "I'm going back first. You young couple should also go to bed earlier."
Liu Hui nodded: "Okay, thank you, Aunt Qin."
Mrs. Qin turned around on crutches, walked to the door, and found Xiaoqing standing still, she whispered: "Xiaoqing, are you still going?"
Liu Qing said "Oh" and followed immediately.
Outside the door, Grandma Sun said calmly: "Everyone go back, Huihui is also tired, let the couple rest early."
The neighbors who came to join in the fun soon dispersed, and Liu Qing also turned and went home.
Only Grandma Sun and Mrs. Qin were left outside the house.
The two old ladies looked at each other and walked away side by side with their backs bent. After walking for a while, they stopped at the fork in the road at the same time. Mrs. Qin said, "Can this child see it?"
Grandma Sun said: "I checked, and her pupils did react."
The old lady Qin said coldly: "What are you going to do with her?"
Grandma Sun said with a smile: "Old rules, when she is a little older, give her medicine, and she will go blind after a while."
The old lady Qin turned her head to look at her: "I remember that Liu Si was also like this. When he was born, he could see, and you gave him medicine, but in the end, wasn't he not blind?"
Grandma Sun frowned unhappily: "The village chief is in a special situation. He is so good at pretending that he even fooled me."
The old lady Qin stared into her eyes and asked, "I think it's because Liu Si was so obedient when he was a child and followed you every day. You can't bear to blind him, right?"
Grandma Sun lowered her face and said with a sneer: "How is it possible? His grandfather and several uncles were all involved in what happened back then. I will not let anyone in the Liu family go!"
The village was extremely quiet late at night, and her sinister voice echoed in the empty streets.
A gust of wind blew by, and the hair of the two old ladies was blown up by the wind, revealing a strange ferocity in their expressions.
Grandma Sun said: "Go back to sleep, tomorrow's Autumn Harvest Festival, everything will be over."
The two separated at the fork in the road and went home to rest.
The challengers who were hiding around appeared, and led by Yu Hanjiang, they quickly left the village and came to the tree near the farmland.
Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice: "Old Qi, how is your situation?"
Old Qi said: "It went well, we stole all of Grandma Sun's medicine."
Yu Hanjiang said: "Old lady Qin's rice wine was also dropped by us. If they really want to poison the villagers tomorrow, the poison given to the villagers will be ineffective. But just in case, someone should keep an eye on Sun and Qin tomorrow." , lest they re-dosage before the ceremony begins."
Liu Qiao raised his hand and said, "I'll keep an eye on Mrs. Qin."
The man who can change color also raised his hand: "I can help keep an eye on Grandma Sun and stick it on the outer wall of her house, so she can't see me."
Yu Hanjiang nodded: "You two continue to investigate. Let's rest first and talk about it at dawn. We will know soon what the two old ladies are going to do."
It was already 4:30 in the morning, and everyone took turns squinting under the tree for a while.
The sky soon dawned, and the village gradually became lively, because today is the annual autumn harvest festival.
Yu Hanjiang called the village chief over and asked, "Cun Chief Liu, what's the procedure for your autumn harvest festivals in previous years?"
The village head said seriously: "In the morning, everyone harvests the crops together, bundles up all the mature wheat and puts them in the farmland. In the evening, every household brings out the same vegetable and sets up a water mat in the farmland. Grandma Sun will say something about us. If you don’t understand, let everyone kowtow together, kneel down to the direction of Xishan, and pray for the ancestors to bless the coming year with good weather..."
In the direction of the west mountain is the head of the human-shaped gem formation, and there is also a human bone pit where the ancestors of Liuxi Village are buried. Rather than bowing down to ancestors, it would be better to say kneeling down to pay respect to the two innocent girls who died tragically in the village that year.
***
Today's weather is fine, Yu Hanjiang asked everyone to hide behind a tree, so as not to be discovered by the villagers.
Liu Qiao and "Chameleon" stayed in the village to investigate the villagers' movements.
Around 9:00 in the morning, a large number of villagers came out of the village to pick up sickles to harvest wheat. Although they were blind, after so many years of training, their movements were not clumsy at all. On the contrary, they were very agile in their hands and feet when harvesting wheat.
In the farmland outside the village, the golden ears of wheat fluttering in the wind were gradually cut off. In a whole day, the villagers cut off all the wheat, tied them up one by one, moved them to the farmland, and arranged them in a big circle.
It was not until it was almost dark that the ceremony of the autumn harvest festival officially began.
Mrs. Qin and Grandma Sun came to the scene. The women brought sumptuous home-cooked dishes, and several young men brought several jars of rice wine. Mrs. Qin stood at the front with a torch in one hand and a Tibetan mastiff in the other. Majestic.
The two people in charge of the investigation also came back, Liu Qiao flew behind the big tree, and reported to Yu Hanjianghui with a serious expression: "The old lady Qin didn't use the jar of rice wine soaked in bones, but asked the villagers for a few jars of normal rice wine .”
Xiao Lou was slightly taken aback: "Where's her jar of bone-soaked wine?"
Liu Qiaodao: "It's still in her kitchen, she hasn't moved at all."
The man who can change color slowly rolled over from the ground like a ball of mud, and said: "Grandma Sun didn't bring any medicine, she just changed her clothes and came here. We stole all her medicine last night. She didn't seem to notice it. I didn't go into the kitchen all day. By the way, Grandma Sun went to see Huihui and the newborn baby before she left, and asked Huihui's husband and niece Xiaoqing to stay and take care of their mother and child."
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou looked at each other. Xiao Lou frowned suspiciously: "Are we thinking wrong? They didn't plan to poison at all, or did they never think about killing all the villagers to be buried with their daughter?"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Last night, a group of people stole the medicine and dropped the package of rice wine... As a result, Mrs. Qin and Granny Sun didn't use the medicine and rice wine at all today, and everyone's work was in vain.
Yu Hanjiang raised his hand: "Everyone, hide well and wait and see what happens."
The big tree is nearly one kilometer away from the farmland, and 99% of the villagers are blind. They hide behind the tree and don't attract attention.
Grandma Sun walked into the middle of the farmland and said loudly: "On the harvest day, of course, everyone should thank our ancestors for finding such a beautiful treasure land for us. The ceremony of the Autumn Harvest Festival has officially begun. Everyone—kneel!"
Following Grandma Sun's order, all the villagers in Liuxi Village knelt down facing west in unison.
The great ceremony of three worships and nine knocks is extremely grand. The villagers knelt down neatly, and Xiao Lou felt terrified at the scene.
They didn't know what they were worshiping at all, and they simply thought they were paying homage to their ancestors...
The village chief who was hiding behind the tree clenched his fists and said with trembling lips: "Since I can remember, we have kowtowed nine times to the west mountain on this day every year. No one has ever suspected that there is something wrong with this ritual."
Xiao Lou sighed softly, and pressed the village chief's shoulder: "Don't worry, Aunt Qin and Grandma Sun will reveal their true colors soon."
After the prostration ceremony, Aunt Qin smiled and said: "According to the rules, everyone will have a reunion dinner together tonight, eat a full meal, and drink a bowl of wine. There will be a bumper harvest in the coming year, Lin Wu, Sun Xiaoliu, Distribute the wine and food, and let's all start eating to our heart's content!"
Everyone cheered and sat down in a circle consciously, picked up a bowl, and began to eat the flowing water mat.
The two young guys took the initiative to distribute wine and vegetables to the villagers. The wine jar was indeed not the jar used to soak human bones in Mrs. Qin's kitchen.
Yu Hanjiang turned around and asked, "Liu Qiao, are you sure that these wine jars were moved from the villagers' homes?"
Liu Qiao nodded: "Sure, I have been staring at the tree near the old lady Qin's house. In the afternoon, some villagers listened to the old lady Qin's order and moved the wine jars from their home to her house. out of my sight."
Xiao Lou always felt uneasy: "Is there no poison in the jar?"
At this moment, Mrs. Qin suddenly laughed and said, "Before drinking, please listen to me tell a story."
The villagers sat in the wheat field and listened to her stories curiously.
The old lady Qin said indifferently: "Thirty-five years ago, there was a lady from a rich family who came to the village with a group of inspection groups. Because there were precious jade and wool in the village, she talked with the village head, Liu Si's grandfather. The price is settled, I want to mine the jade on the west mountain of our village and process it into a kind of beautiful jewelry."
"There is a girl in the village who has been blind since she was a child and has been bullied by her peers. She is introverted but very smart. It happened that she went out to pick vegetables that day and met a rich lady.
The two girls quickly became friends. "
"One night..." At this point, the old lady Qin stopped suddenly, her vicious eyes swept over everyone present, and she said word by word: "The blind girl went to Xishan to find her good friend, but the two of them Killed by several young people, rape first, then kill! The village head and villagers all know who the murderer is, but they have been covering it up..."
"That blind girl is my daughter. That rich lady is your grandma's daughter!"
When the villagers heard this, they felt that something was wrong.
The old lady Qin suddenly kicked over several wine jars and threw them on the wheat in the distance. Her voice was as cold as ice: "Autumn Harvest Festival, what you are kneeling to worship is actually not some ancestors, but Our daughter's spiritual seat in Xishan! Today is my daughter's death day, and our two old ladies won't live long, why don't we all go down together and bury them with us!"
Hearing the last sentence, the faces of the villagers changed suddenly. Some alerted ones stood up and prepared to run away, while others asked blankly, "What the hell is Aunt Qin talking about?" "Is Aunt Qin crazy?"
The old lady Qin suddenly threw out the torch in her hand——
The farmland is full of farmers who just harvested today, piled up in bundles.
Mrs. Qin's fire spread quickly along with the rice wine and the wind. In a blink of an eye, the raging fire surrounded all the villagers. The blind people couldn't see, and they ran around in a panic, trampling on each other. Some people were burned to the clothes. I screamed in pain.
The Autumn Harvest Festival, which originally delighted the villagers, instantly turned into a scene of fire.
Xiao Lou's expression changed: "Not good!"
They found Mrs. Qin's human bone wine jar and Grandma Sun's human bone medicine jar, subconsciously thinking that the two old ladies were going to poison the wine or medicine that the villagers had today.
Unexpectedly, the old lady Qin's method was even more straightforward - set a fire directly, burn the farmland, and burn the villagers to death!
Grandma Sun drove away the village chief ahead of time, and didn't let Xiaoqing participate, and she didn't let Huihui go out after giving birth. Perhaps, she wasn't targeting these people, but wanted to save their lives—because the village chief, Xiaoqing and Huihui's newborn daughter can see. Not killing them is the last conscience of Grandma Sun.
As for the others, since they lived in the dark anyway, they might as well go down to a darker place to accompany their daughters.
The old lady's so-called "complete death" actually set a fire on the day of the Autumn Harvest Festival and died with the blind villagers!
Seeing that the fire was getting fiercer, Yu Hanjiang immediately said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and save people!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lou suddenly said, "Wait, I can't see."
Shao Qingge followed closely: "I can't see either..."
Liu Qiao's voice came from beside him: "Me too."
Yu Hanjiang's gaze quickly swept around, and among the twelve challengers, seven of them were actually blinded—one person in each duo team was blinded, Liu Qiao, who was acting alone, was blinded, and the masked man could still see, and his combat power was instantly reduced two-thirds.
The eyes are fine, there are only five people left.
The five people looked at each other, and Lao Qi said with a serious face: "There are hundreds of villagers, but we can only see five. How can we save them?"
There will be a blindness buff in the secret room, and everyone will be recruited for three hours a day, but most of the blindness in the past few days is at a time that is not important-for example, if you are blind at noon, you can simply take a nap, and people who are blind early in the morning do not need to participate in operations , It is best to be blind at night, and not aware of it in sleep.
Unexpectedly, at this most critical moment, more than half of the challengers were suddenly affected by blindness.
Everyone was a little flustered. Even if they couldn't see it, they could still feel the raging fire burning. The temperature of the surrounding air kept rising, and the heat and smoke that hit their faces almost made it impossible for everyone to breathe.
In the floating frame of everyone, a line of prompts was swiped at this time——
Save the villagers, number 0/119.
Lao Qi, who has always been calm, couldn't help but swear: "Fuck! When we are gods, five people can save more than a hundred!"
Ignore the villagers, turn around and run for their lives, just asking for ordinary customs clearance?
Or fight it out and rush into the fire to save people?
Looking at the panicked villagers in the raging fire, listening to the cries of children in his ears——Yu Hanjiang couldn't ignore it.
These are real human lives. None of these people participated in the case back then. They have been trapped in a dark world since birth. The daughters of Qin and Sun were buried with them!
How innocent are they?
Yu Hanjiang yelled sharply: "Don't retreat! You can't see, and it's not like you can't move. What are you afraid of? Have you drawn so many cards for nothing?!"
The challenger team, which was in a panic just now, suddenly calmed down under his anger.
——It’s just that they can’t see it, and these villagers can’t see it either, haven’t they lived for more than 30 years?
If they backed down because they couldn't see it, what would they do in the more difficult secret room in the future?
If you encounter danger, you will retreat until there is no way to retreat, and you will be eliminated?
Yu Hanjiang's words awakened the dreamer. At this moment, everyone realized how stupid the idea of running away was.
Seeing that everyone's faces calmed down, Yu Hanjiang went on to say: "Since it's cooperation, I hope everyone can unite and don't shrink back when things come to an end! Don't think about the villagers, you should also think about yourself. Don't forget, perfect customs clearance can draw card, there will be more rewards.”
Xiao Lou came out first, and he
There was darkness in front of his eyes, but he still accurately captured Yu Hanjiang's breath and position. Standing beside Team Yu, he said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, everyone. There are no dangerous buildings here. There will be no beams or other things to burn and hurt us. The burning objects of the fire are only the crops on the farmland. We only need to Determine the location of the fire ring, and open the gap to save people."
Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou and said appreciatively, "That's right."
His gaze swept over everyone, and he said calmly: "Now, blind people, please hand over useful cards to the five people who can see. If you are worried about giving them to others, please give them to your teammates, or give them to me directly." !"
Yu Hanjiang's deep and calm voice was the best weapon to stabilize the morale of the army at this time.
Everyone immediately obeyed his command and handed over their useful cards one after another.
The author has something to say: Captain Yu and Professor Xiao are in this secret room, and the others are so comfortable.
Liuxi Village will be finished tomorrow, okay!
