Doomsday Reincarnation

Chapter 55: vote

Before Qin Yi could continue to speak, suddenly, a gust of wind blew and rolled up the sand, fascinating the four of them.

This gust of wind was very evil, and the mud and sand seemed to have eyes, and no one of the four avoided them.

Qin Yi closed his eyes involuntarily, reached out and rubbed his eyes.

Before she let go, the strange gale suddenly stopped, and then, there were many unfamiliar voices in her ears.

"Master, are you sure this is really useful?" A middle-aged man's voice sounded.

"Yeah, if this doesn't work..." The woman's voice came next.

Beneath these two clearer words, there are some vague voices.

Qin Yi opened his faintly painful eyes in surprise, and at the first glance he saw the other three people who were also full of surprise.

Immediately, I realized that the sky had turned into daytime.

The incense cases and futons that were originally placed in the yard all disappeared, replaced by a small square table with four translucent figures sitting around the table, with a few other chairs next to them, and five people sat there. In other places in the hospital, some people stood or squatted.

Roughly counted, there are about forty or fifty people, all of them are middle-aged, most of them are men.

The courtyard was not very big at first, these forty or fifty "people" were scattered everywhere, and the figure of one of them even overlapped half of Hu Lai's.

Hu Lai jumped away in fright, but the figure didn't seem to feel it at all.

Qin Yi's eyes fell back to the four people sitting at the square table, and he saw one of the bald men asked hesitantly: "Master, if you do this, the people in our town will be able to... A murderer! Are you really sure that as long as you do this, you'll be fine?"

Known as the "Master", it was a man in his fifties with a big belly and a Taoist robe.

His hand was rubbing his goatee all the time, and under the eyes of everyone, he just snorted contemptuously, and said slowly: "Pin Dao was taught by Qing Yun Guan Wu Yuan Dao Master, and he has been studying art for decades. If you can’t handle this trivial matter, what kind of cultivators are you? Since you don’t believe in the poor way, why do you need to come here to the poor way?”

He stood up and turned to leave.

The middle-aged woman standing by the side hurriedly grabbed him and said with a smile: "Master, don't be angry, don't we just want to ask clearly! For such a big matter, we always have to understand it clearly, right? ? You are a lot of adults, so don't bother with those of us who are ignorant."

"Master" raised his nostrils, snorted again proudly, sat down, and said, "You guys are troublesome even if you say it's troublesome, and it's not troublesome if you say it's not troublesome. You people here can't live to be fifty-five years old these years. , even those who left this town and went abroad did not escape. Why is this? It was all because of the mistakes made by your ancestors back then! Surely nothing will happen!"

Previously, the bald man looked at the people around him with an embarrassed expression and asked, "But, Master, do you really have to kill people? You can't kill a pig or something?"

"Master" glanced at him and said, "Nonsense, your ancestors ate other people's meat back then! What do you mean by apologizing for killing a pig? Moreover, even if human life is used to sacrifice the wronged soul, these people still have to pay for it. Only those who match the eight characters can do it, but not everyone can do it!”

The bald man was silent for a while, stood up, and said loudly to the people around him: "I called you all for this meeting today, I just want everyone to discuss it together. After all, this matter is not a trivial matter, once it is done, let's The whole town has become a murderer!"

"But if we don't do this, in the future, not only us, but even our descendants, everyone in this town, will not live to be fifty-five years old! So, you all think carefully and discuss it! Today, we will put It's a given."

The man spoke with style and seemed to be the more authoritative figure in the town.

After he finished speaking, a man who was five or three thick stood up from the squatting ground and said solemnly: "Mayor, I think, it was our ancestors who owed those people back then, and he deserved this punishment, no, no, Those ghosts also let us live in our fifties before we start, should we be content?"

Another woman jumped up from the bench and said loudly like a fried cock: "How do you talk about this? What does it mean to deserve it? It was all two hundred years ago. What are we to blame, our sons and daughters? What's the crime? My young boy has just finished his Ph.D., and is about to go abroad for further studies. When he finishes all his studies, he will be thirty years old!"

"Thirty years old, I will die in twenty years, how long can I live? And you..."

She pointed to the people present and asked, "You also want to be like your parents, you can't enjoy the blessings of your children and grandchildren one day, and you can't even see the grandchildren when they are born, so are you dead like that?"

Silence, long silence.

Hu Lai approached Qin Yi and whispered, "My mother, that's what happened!"

Before Qin Yi spoke, among those "people", someone spoke again.

"I think Aunt Li is right, no matter what happened two hundred years ago, it has nothing to do with our generation!"

"But, we have to kill!"

"It's better to die a few people than everyone, right?"

"How many people are not human? If we kill them, what is the difference between those ancestors who killed and ate meat back then?"

"Bah, if it wasn't for the ancestors who ate human flesh, would you still be able to breathe here now?"

Amidst the noisy voices, the bald man scratched his scalp and said loudly: "It's alright, let's stop arguing! It's not too early, let's start voting! Let's write whether we agree or disagree with a note. , don't keep your name, okay?"

Everyone was silent for a while, then nodded one after another in agreement.

Then, someone went to the room and took out a thick stack of paper strips that had been cut long ago and distributed it to everyone.

Qin Yi looked at all this, and the guess in his heart almost became a fact that he could be sure of.

The result of their vote must be that more people agree, and then the whole town becomes accomplices in the murder.

And those who were killed must have a lot of grievances.

Later, the reason why the people in this town went mad and died madly may have nothing to do with those grievances two hundred years ago, but that the people they killed with their own hands were taking revenge.

But, why did the Taoist do this?

Qin Yi stared at the goatee Taoist priest, and was very puzzled.

She knew that there were many liars who pretended to be Taoist priests.

But she had never heard of a liar so courageous that he dared to lie to someone to kill! And kill more than one or two!

Gong Xiao yawned and said lightly, "It's kind of interesting, a bunch of foolish people."

The dozens of translucent figures each buried their heads and wrote on the slip of paper. They carefully covered the nib with their left hand, for fear that what they had written would be seen by others.

After they were written, they were folded again and put into the cardboard box in front of the bald man.

After everyone voted, the bald man shook the cardboard box a few times, then buckled it upside down, and dumped all the notes on the table.

Take them apart one by one and put them on both sides.

About ten minutes later, he picked up one of the stacks and said loudly: "There are forty-three people here, and thirty-one voted in favor! This matter, it's settled!"

The "Master" who has been closing his eyes and resting his mind opened his eyes and said with a smile, "That's right, you have to think about the future."

Qin Yi exhaled softly, feeling a little dull in his heart.

The bald man put a piece of paper in front of him and asked the "Master", "Master, didn't you say you want five people, what are their characters?"

"Master" pointed his finger and said slowly: "The first one, on the eighth day of the fifth month of the new year, a person was born at three quarters of Yin Shi. The second..."

He reported the birthdays of five people in a row, and Qin Yi saw that among the people present, the expressions of three of them suddenly changed.

One of the middle-aged women's body softened and fell directly to the ground, her face was very ugly with her mouth open, but she didn't say anything.

Another man rushed out from behind the crowd, pointed at the "Master"'s nose and cursed: "You **** liar, stop talking nonsense here! I will kill you now!"

Another man leaned against the wall and muttered in despair, "Baby, her mother..."

The bald man looked at the three people and said, "Then tie these two up first, and then go to Tie Zhu's house and tie his wife. Whose family are the other two, don't waste your time, Stand up for yourself!"

Seeing that no one responded, he said again: "It's okay if you don't come out, let's go back and search every household's household registration book to find out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man knelt straight down and cried at the same time: "Mayor, Master, can we change someone? My daughter is only fifteen years old this year! I am willing to replace her! I really Willing to do it for her!"

The master stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "This is not good, five people, one is indispensable!"

Others who were not selected were secretly glad in their hearts, and some people were more eager to end everything because of this, and they followed up: "Pharaoh, you are only thirty-seven years old this year, as long as this is over, you and you The family can have another one! For the sake of all of us, your family Fangfang will sacrifice it!"

The man was speechless and started to kowtow.

Seeing this, the bald man said, "Okay, Old Wang, for the sake of everyone and the future of our town, you should hurry back and call and ask your family Fangfang to take a leave from the school and come back..."
