Chapter 170 The old man hanged himself
Crow Moth ran towards the wooden house excitedly, but the moment he pushed open the door, he bumped into a pair of dangling feet.

Taking a closer look, I saw that the old man had fallen on the beam.

The crooked face covered in the hemp rope had wide-eyed eyes.

The corner of the mouth raised a strange arc.

"grandmother!"

Along with my exclamation, Duguhan threw out his saber.

The moment the saber cut the rope, a flying body rushed over to catch the old man.

But when he put his hand between the old man's nose, he quickly retracted it.

He looked up at me, shaking his head slightly.

Immediately my feet went limp and I almost fell.

After Crow Moth stroked the old man in a panic, he burst into tears.

……

My grandmother, died.

Before she could hear me call her, she hanged herself.

And, still with that weird expression.

Everyone in the village came to Wu Mo's funeral.

They entered the ancestral hall and kowtowed one by one.

And I found that there are many spiritual seats in the ancestral hall.

Looking at the names, they all have the surname Wu Qie and they are all female.

Most importantly, the worshipers are also women.

They are all middle-aged and elderly, and some are even octogenarians, and they are all faltering.

"Xing'er, come and bow down to grandma!"

Hearing what Wu Mo said, I found the incense in her hand.

But the moment I held it, my fingertips tingled.

I saw the barb of a thin bamboo stick sticking up on the incense stick.

Because the incense stick is made of bamboo sticks, I lit it and plugged it in without thinking too much.

After kowtowing three times, he was lifted up by the black moth.

She reached out and stroked my face.

"You look like my Die'er!" Crow Moth cried, "We have to keep a vigil at night, so go and rest first."

……

Under the guidance of a clansman, we came to a remote wooden house.

After closing the door, Duguhan and I looked at each other.

"It's not right!" The two said in unison.

"Say it first!" I said hastily.

"I have observed that there are no men in this village!" Duguhan clasped his arms, "and all the deceased on the spiritual tablet are named Wu."

"There are no young women yet!" Su Qiaoer said cautiously, "Except for the black moth, all of them are elderly people in their dying years."

Yep, that's the oddity.

But what I don't understand the most is why grandma hanged herself after seeing me?
why?
"Just now when the king was about to offer incense, he was squeezed away by a few other old men. Obviously they did it on purpose."

When Duguhan said this, he looked at me. "This village is weird!"

As soon as I said this, a black figure suddenly jumped in from the window.

The moment Duguhan drew his sword and thrust out, he quickly deviated from the direction.

And I saw Ah Shi, who was covered in dirt, waving his hands excitedly at me.

"This king is the head of the family, next time I will greet you first!" Duguhan withdrew his sword displeased.

Ah Shi nodded quickly, and rubbed against Duguhan.

Then, he took out the hand behind his back.

I saw a few wild flowers in the shape of butterflies in his palm.

Ah Shi handed the flowers to Duguhan, then pointed at me.

But Duguhan snatched it and threw it on the ground, and stepped on it fiercely.

"Duguhan, what are you doing!" Immediately, I was annoyed.

"Qiaoer, bring the lantern."

Su Qiaoer was taken aback for a moment, then nodded quickly.

Bring the lantern to Duguhan.

Duguhan took out the candle inside, and the moment he moved his foot, he quickly stuck the lantern on the ground.

At the same time, several dark shadows fluttered from the lantern.
