Chapter 8: The fear of the villagers

   "Well, uh, village chief, what do you mean?" Qian Cangyi tried to make his actions look very flustered.

   "I am getting older, it is time to consider choosing a successor." Shi Wenwei directly answered Qian Cangyi's question.

   "Well, didn't the successor have been decided long ago?" Qian Cang smiled bitterly.

"Yes, it was decided, but Hai Min, your return this time gave me a different idea. Hongye is too honest. If you didn't have you, it would be a good idea to choose him as the village chief, but he is destined to be unable to go further. Develop Yuxi Village. Although Xingyun is clever and smart, his mind is not right. Let him be the village head. I am afraid that the village will not be further developed, but will get worse and worse. As for Xuezhen, I won’t talk about the rest. I have considered the villagers, but unfortunately they all have such shortcomings. Only you are different, Hai Min. I hope you will seriously consider my words."

   Shi Wenwei's remarks made Qian Cang vigilant. It has been less than a day since he entered the village yesterday, but Shi Haimin is about to become the heir of the village chief.

"In addition, Haimin, you seem to be very close to Mr. Zhang? You went out to meet the world, and your horizons are much broader than ours. I heard that the outside world is very different now. For the development of the village, you must have your own. Thoughts." After Shi Wenwei finished speaking, he looked at Shi Haimin and smiled.

   The smile on his face was very kind, but Qian Cangyi's eyes revealed a strange expression.

"It seems that the last point is the most important. The previous shortcomings should also be suitable for Shi Haimin. After all, they are just opinions from different positions. In this case...I might as well deal with him first." Qian Cangyi said in his heart. Analyzing Shi Wenwei's words, found the key points in the words.

"The village chief, actually I don’t know Mr. Zhang Zian very well, maybe because I’ve been outside too, it’s easier for the two of us to have a better conversation. In fact, the relationship between the two of us is not the same as the village head, you think. That's so good." Qian Cang looked embarrassed, his tone a little reluctant.

   "Well, I see."

   To Qian Cangyi's surprise, Shi Wenwei did not continue to persuade him.

"You go back first. By the way, don't tell your mother what happened here. I'm afraid she will be worried. After the investigation is clear, I will talk to your mother. Do you understand?" At the time, Shi Wenwei was different from usual, his expression was serious and his tone was solemn.

   After experiencing the events of last night, Qian Cangyi couldn't understand Shi Wenwei's thoughts, and did not say anything, but agreed.

  Walking out of the house, as soon as Qiancang met Hawkeye, the two began to exchange their opinions.

   "You should have found it too, the corpse has moved hands and feet." Hawkeye was straightforward, because he hadn't seen the first scene and couldn't conduct an investigation, so he chose to ask the village chief to call the police.

"Well, I have thoughts in this area, but it is not very clear. By the way, Shi Wenwei said just now that he wanted me to be the village head. There are many reasons, but the most important point is that I have seen the world outside the village, and Looks very familiar with you." Qiancang chuckled out after speaking of it.

   "There is nothing funny, this may not necessarily be our world, it is not strange what happens." Hawkeye said solemnly.

"No, because of what he said later, he told me not to tell Shi Xi about this. After he investigates it clearly, he will tell Shi Xi himself, why don't you make me laugh." Qian Cang put a smile away. But the smile in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

   However, Qian Cangyi's face quickly sank under Hawkeye's silent gaze, and he waved his hand, "Forget it, let's not talk about it."

"I've found out about the time for the death sacrifice. There are still four days left today. Four days later, it will be held at the altar on the mountainside of the village. The villagers are already setting it up, but what makes me strange is that the villagers of Yuxi Village They did not show enthusiasm or grandeur for the death sacrifice. Instead, I saw fear in their eyes. However, if they are unwilling to hold the death sacrifice, then it is fine to not hold it. Unless they have to hold it, then it is fine. Very bad things will happen." Hawkeye gave out his intelligence.

   Qiancang heard it, but in his heart he was very dissatisfied with his performance.

"With my ability, this kind of thing should have been heard a long time ago. The first day can be explained by the unfamiliar environment, but the next day, why should I ask Shi Xi? It was still disturbed by the events of last night. Although I am playing Shi Haimin, I should change things about the village chief and Shi Xi, but for Shi Haimin, the reason for returning to the village is still a death sacrifice. In addition, if Shi Haimin leaves the village and what happened last night Relevant, then, the information about the death sacrifice is more important to him."

   Thinking of this, Qian Cang sighed. He adjusted his mind a little and asked, "Then what are we going to do next?"

"In the afternoon, let’s go to the place of worship. Maybe there will be some unexpected gains. Then we will find out more information about death sacrifice. After all, the name of this movie is called death sacrifice. The death sacrifice is completely irrelevant, or has only a weak connection, so it won't be called by this name." Hawkeye also revealed a bit of film-related skills.

   "I see." Qian Cang suddenly thought of a person, Shi Jingfu he saw when he entered the village.

   After Qiancang returned home, Shi Xi, in accordance with the agreement with the village chief, found an excuse related to the village chief to perfuse her. Shi Xi heard that it was about the village chief's arrangement, and did not ask much, and continued with the work at hand.

   Seeing Shi Xi's serious work, Qian Cangyi touched his chin with his right hand, hesitated for a while, and then asked about the death sacrifice.

   Hearing Qian Cangyi's words, Shi Xi was stunned for a moment, and then continued the work at hand, absent-mindedly said: "The death sacrifice is to sacrifice to the dead. What's so strange, every village has it!"

  Because I had talked with Hawkeye before, Qian Cangyi paid special attention to Shi Xi's eyes, but Shi Xi lowered his head at this time and couldn't see her eyes.

   "But I don't think everyone cares about death sacrifices very much, as if...they have dealt with things." Qian Cangyi chose a more euphemistic term.

"Why don't you care about the death sacrifice once every twenty years? It's just that you have prepared it long before you come back. Everything will be arranged until the day before the death sacrifice. At that time, we villagers just need to participate, don't worry." Shi Xi's tone was still very relaxed. After she finished speaking, she seemed to have thought of something and continued: "You, why are you so concerned about this matter after returning to the village? Shouldn't you talk more with your friends?"

   "I'm going to find Jingfu." When Qiancang saw that he couldn't ask Shi Xi, he didn't force it anymore.

   "Then go now." Shi Xi raised her head and said.

   At this moment, Qian Cangyi saw fear in Shi Xi's eyes.
