Chapter 220 We



But Ren Ziling didn’t blame her---Because she couldn’t suppress her fear as well. She even felt her back turned cold after hearing Lui Chaosheng’s statement about the accident.

All the villagers took an innocent woman to the cliff together and threw her down into the sea alive regardless her pleas.

It was not only ruthless, it frightened people thinking about human’s ogrish hearts.

Ren Ziling sighed, "Fatuity is always abnormally terrible."

She gave a wry smile, "I understand why you insist not to tell Yiyun. If she knew such thing, she..."

Lui Chaosheng heaved a long sigh, "This accident has always been a taboo in this village. Decades later, the elimination of the four stereotypes extended here. Nobody mentioned about that incident. Everyone came to a consensus to act as if nothing had happened... who wants to recall that kind of things? And who wants to take charge of that thing? The instigator has been taken away and her house totally burned. They may think that their crimes have gone with the ashes."

Ren Ziling heaved a sigh of relief, "No wonder Lui Hai’s family moved to such an isolated place... all the villagers are his enemy."

Thinking of Lui Hai’s agitated expression, Ren Ziling could imagine that he had experienced many devastating things 40-50 years ago since he was a kid.

Lui Chaosheng’s consulting room fell silent.

Lizi lifted up the thing that Lui Chaosheng had shown them---it was the appearances of the people after they caught the weird disease.

It was not a photo but something that Lui Chaosheng drew from his memory. Lizi watched the thickly dotted swells on their hands and feet, couldn’t help feeling absolutely horrified, "Is that... really the demon’s curse?"

Lui Chaosheng shook his head, "My decision to study medicine was because I want to dig out what the disease it was. Because I don’t believe in the so-called curse."

"Then did you find the reason?" Ren Ziling asked curiously.

Lui Chaosheng didn’t show an uncertain look, "No, I haven’t encountered this kind of disease yet throughout these years. But I’ve read some news regarding this kind of disease on the Internet in recent years thanks to advanced technology."

Lui Chaosheng turned the old computer screen on his desk, clicking open the website that he had saved before saying slowly, "This kind of disease is rarely seen in the world, only 10 to 20 cases. There’s no clear definition for it from the medical aspect. The name ‘Mop hand’ was assigned to it temporarily, which means that after the patient’s’ limbs become deformed, a big amount of keratinocytes will grow and make them look like a mop. It should be a kind of cell mutation disease."

"Well... I’ve read a report about this disease before." Ren Ziling nodded.

She looked at the photo of the patient on the webpage and found it similar to the photo that Lui Chaosheng had drawn.

"This disease makes patients’ limbs look like mops and also like corals at the seabed. No one knows if their bodies will be fully covered with keratinocytes. But to the people at that time, it was quite horrible. Therefore, the villagers believed in Immortal Huang’s aspersion." Lui Chaosheng shook his head, "I’ve been keeping this secret for years. I planned to tell Yiyun if she asks me again at anytime."

Ren Ziling fell silent for a while, "Doctor, can I keep these pictures?"

Lui Chaosheng considered for a while, "If you want, you can keep them. They are useless to me anyways."

Ren Ziling said while cleaning up, "Thank you, doctor. Then, we won’t disturb you any further...Lizi, let’s go."

Watching them leave, Lui Chaosheng heaved a long sigh of relief. He leaned against the chair, lightened a cigarette, closed his eyes and thought about something.

It could have happened since a very long time ago.

...

...

"This looks like some chemical substance."

You Ye shook the test tube in her hand, turning to Luo Qiu, "As to the ingredients and effects, we’ll know those after the test."

Momo frowned, "Senior, have you heard of the ruthless atrocities committed by the Japanese invaders before the second World War?"

Luo Qiu glanced at Momo, "Are you suggesting that the weird disease that was spreading in Lui Village in that year was caused by the objects in this box?"

Momo nodded, "There’s one empty space in it right? I wouldn’t have discovered that in the underground if I didn’t know the art of Five Ghost hauling. That old female immortal hurried to throw the patients into the sea. She was probably worried that this thing was infectious and she wouldn’t be able to justify herself if anything happened."

Momo loured, "Think about it, assume that the old immortal used this thing and infected people with this disease. If she didn’t continue utilizing it anymore, all patients would then die. Then the whole Lui Village would recover its original state, wouldn’t it? Thus, she could combine together the idea of sacrificing a living person and the fact that no one would get infected, making the villagers believe that she was a miracle, does that make sense?"

Luo Qiu suddenly asked, "If so, what will you do next?"

Momo replied, "Of course revealing this matter completely. That old immortal would definitely have a bad ending after being taken away but every participant in this village were accomplices. Should they be free to live and act as if it was nothing of their business after depriving an innocent person’s life? Ridiculous!"

Luo Qiu felt and appreciated Momo’s steadfast sense of justice, "How would you like to publish it?"

"Well..." Momo gave a start, he hadn’t considered about this aspect.

Luo Qiu said calmly, "This is what you discovered... you can regard me as the witness but I’m an outsider in any event. The conclusion is from your own inference according to this box you found here. How many persons do you think will believe this is the reason for the accident of that year?"

Momo’s face turned blue immediately.

Luo Qiu sighed, "Immortal Huang’s trick might be revealed by the time she was caught. No villager would not have thought of how nonsensical that incident was. But they avoided talking about that, right"

Momo looked at the box that he had found, his face looked very embarrassed.

Luo Qiu said softly, "It’s not that they don’t know... they’re just reluctant to admit it."

Momo got angry, "These people! How could these people do so?!"

Luo Qiu turned around.This burnt house was located in a place with a high altitude. One could catch the sight of more than half of the entire Lui Village. His voice was heard slowly, "Perhaps because... it should not only be one person in this matter."

It should be called ‘we’.
