Hurriedly coped with dinner, looking at the twilight Sihe, Wu Er helped his grandmother clean up the things to be used for the festival, the grandparents and grandchildren went to the archway side, although it was summer, but the mountain breeze in Qianyao Village at night, the temperature would continue to drop, and the sporadic light rain fell halfway through, and it couldn't help but feel a little cool, Wu Er panicked for no reason, while walking and looking at the clouds gathered overhead, occasionally a few faint dull thunder, he looked at the grandmother walking in front, the old man didn't seem to care about the changes around him, but his pace has been speeding up, and from time to time he turned around and urged Wu Er a few times。

There are two heavy rectangular stone tables in the archway, there are several years of history in the village, it has been the altar of the village festival, the center of the big field is carved with a huge gossip map, the two stone tables are just one high and one low on the two points of the Taiji diagram, the high square table is placed with the portrait of the god of things, the candlestick incense burner is placed in the middle, and the low square table is placed with a fruit plate of pickled meat, Wu Er looked at his grandmother kneeling in front of the portrait as a routine, muttering vague words in his mouth, and did not tell him what to do from beginning to end, and in the end he only got up and lit the incense candle and bowed three times before he simply said: "Let's go, go to the village party secretary and have a look. ”

It seems that grandma has always been thinking about the box related to the Qili family, Wu Er did not speak, silently followed behind his grandmother, but when he walked through the huge Tai Chi Bagua diagram at his feet, he suddenly saw a small stream of glass-colored water droplets rotating in the Bagua diagram, Wu Er quickly rubbed his eyes, for fear that he would hallucinate, and then opened his eyes to take a closer look, and indeed saw a line of liquid that was different from ordinary rain, gathered into a crystal ball-shaped transparent ball under the two stone tables, and the golden light in the bead flashed slightly, and something columnar disappeared in an instant after imaging, because it was too fast, Wu Er didn't see it clearly at all, and the ball on the other side disappeared after the picture disappeared here, and then flashed an image, the beads were full of churning water vapor, like a huge waterfall hanging in the sky, but as before, those sudden pictures were fleeting, Wu Er hurriedly called out to stop the grandmother in front of him, the old man turned around, and when he pointed to the gossip map of the big field again, everything seemed to have never existed at all, only the sparse raindrops continued to hit the stone carvings, and then a thunder overhead, and the sound of raindrops gradually began to intensify......

The old man saw that the rain was getting heavier, and beckoned Wu Er to speed up his pace, but Wu Er was at a loss, and couldn't help but suspect that what he had just seen was also an illusion, so he shook his head and kept hinting to himself: You are still from a forensic professional background, these are all brain projections caused by psychological stress reactions, stay awake and stay awake!

The village party secretary knew that they were coming, so he waited at home early, and was secretly relieved to see the old man enter the door, and somehow, after the box was placed at home, he always felt depressed in some kind of indescribable atmosphere.

"But when you come, the weather will change, and it will make my heart flutter. "The village party secretary is in his forties, and he has not yet come out of the shadow of baldness, and he loves to use his hands to brush the few hairs on the top of his head when he is in a hurry, and at this moment he sees their grandparents and grandchildren, and finally puts his hand down from the top of his head, Wu Er looks funny, but it is not easy to laugh, and he followed his grandmother straight into his study, and when he entered the door, he saw a basin on the desk, and the box was immersed in the muddy water in the basin.

"We have to hurry, the water in this basin will evaporate a little more, and the box will be revealed. The village party secretary was in a hurry, and he didn't understand everything, and Wu Er was confused, but fortunately, his grandmother explained on the side: "This water flows out of the box, which seems to play a role in protecting it. After saying that, the old man urged him to do it again.

“…… Oh. Wu Er responded, took out rubber gloves from his pocket and put them on, reached into the basin and slowly picked up the box, his fingers became very careful, and when the box was out of the water, a thunderbolt flashed outside the preference, which scared Wu Er's legs and stomach, but fortunately the strength of his hand was not loosened, and then looked down at the square box in his hand, Wu Er's eyes suddenly couldn't move half a minute, and his mind was instantly completely attracted by the ancient atmosphere on the surface of the box, so that Wu Er's atmosphere did not dare to come out. There are no lock marks in the square box, only a layer of black unknown gel sticking to the gap between opening and closing, so he doesn't dare to use brute force to pull it open, Wu Er took the prepared blade in his hand, just like dissecting a corpse in the laboratory and became extremely focused, his left hand pressed the square box lightly, and his right hand carefully inserted the blade into the gap, slowly cutting the layer of gelatin, at first it was very slow, but with the coherent movement of his hand, the gelatinous material did not cause much hindrance, and was soon all cut off, Wu Er paused, did not hurry to uncover it immediately, but turned his head to look at his grandmother and the village party secretary, the two of them have been staring at the movements of Wu Er's hands, and each frownedWu Er shook his head slightly, feeling that the gelatinous matter that was accidentally stuck to his hands had a slight coolness, it was very comfortable in this sultry weather, and he had no scruples at the moment, and slowly uncovered the box......

The air was suddenly quiet, and the three of them all held their breath and looked at the box, and found that there was no valuable jewelry, just a piece of silk that was tied and soaked in black water, and the village party secretary was also relieved, at least he knew that it was not a strange thing, and the people in the county didn't know how to explain it, Wu Er didn't speak, but the residual coolness on his hands was still there, and his grandmother didn't know how long the silk had been soaked, and she was worried that there was something recorded on it, so she asked Wu Er to quickly pick it up and take a look, Wu Er responded, so he had to do it, who knew that the moment his fingers just touched the silk, the wind suddenly made a loud noise outside the house, and the heavy rain began without warning, several old windows of the village party secretary's house were "banged" by the strong wind A few sudden sounds in the house, the archway is even more thundering, the already gloomy canopy seems to be pressed to the top of the head, which can frighten a few people in the room, Wu Er took the piece of silk and looked out the window in amazement, feeling that there was a blue light flashing in the twilight that could not be smeared, it was not real, but the feeling of oppression that appeared during the nap spontaneously appeared, Wu Er began to tremble slightly, but soon felt that there was a hand behind him lightly attached to his vest, and the faint warmth made him feel a lot more at ease, he turned his head to look behind him, and found that his grandmother had been standing on her chest with one palm at some point, her eyebrows were lowered and she kept muttering something, the warmth of the vest was coming from her other hand, and the village party secretary was looking confused at the momentShe slapped her palm on the table, and the changes around her gradually subsided, and the village party secretary finally came to her senses.

"Quick! open it up and take a look. When Grandma opened her eyes, her color became extremely ugly, and she apparently did not have time to explain to the two of them what had just happened.

Wu Er knew that the situation was urgent, and quickly took a blade to cut the silk thread tied to the silk and spread it flat, on the silk, there were indeed some words, not much content, but the color of the silk exposed to the air was obviously lightening a little bit, and even those handwriting had a tendency to gradually disappear, Wu Er had to concentrate and record the content on the silk into his mind word by word: "Gu Yu Mingtai, only water and wood, if you are printed by Suyin, turn into Xi Ling." ”

"Spirit" The words looked, a sudden gust of wind blew in from the window, the handwriting of the silk was raised and dissipated like fine crumbs, and the color of the silk surface was dimmed at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye, when did the three of them see this kind of situation, they were shocked and speechless for a while, Wu Er also only saw in the archaeological documentary that the air was rapidly oxidized, but what I saw today was by no means as simple as oxidation, but it could not be explained in words, my grandmother carefully took the piece of silk from his hand, and looked at it again inside and out, for fear that something would be missed, and then I sighed and put it down, and the village party secretary quickly turned around and took out a pen and paper from the drawer and handed it to Wu Er: "Quick...... Write down what you just saw. ”

Wu Er took the pen and paper in response, and wrote down the content recorded on the silk word for word, but his heart was constantly chewing on the meaning of this sentence, what the hell is Suyin? A sentence has no basis in context, it is too difficult to speculate on the content that may have been thousands of years old for no reason, Wu Er can't guess it, and he doesn't bother to guess at the moment, he stopped writing and saw his grandmother whispering thoughtfully beside him: "...... Auntie?"

"What, Grandma, what do you know?" Wu Er asked, looking up.

The old man was not sure, but he said: "When I was a child, I heard my ancestors say that Qianyao Village seemed to be called Qianyao Village a long time ago, and as for why Yuanyuan was renamed Yao, I'm afraid no one knows it for so many years." ”

"The ancestors of Qianyao Village have been collecting medicine for a living, and the pronunciation of the word medicine is so close, will it be because of a slip of the tongue?" Wu Er tried to find the connection, but his grandmother just shook her head, noncommittal, and the village party secretary was even more confused, only felt that this matter was incredible, even if someone from the county cultural relics management department came over, he was afraid that he would not be able to speak clearly, and he could not hand a sentence without a beginning or end to them, and said at the moment: " I think let's put these old things aside first, regardless of what the ancients meant by leaving these words, the most troublesome thing at the moment is how to reflect this matter to the county, we opened the box privately, and now the silk is ruined, and the handwriting is gone, and it is good to explain to the villagers, but if the local people blame it, I will not be able to argue, and I have to think about it first. ”

"Uncle Zhong~!Your worries are really superfluous, the county only knows that there is such a box, as for whether there is something in the box, they don't know, this box is still intact, you can give it to them when the time comes, we don't say a word about silk, who knows?" Wu Er's brain was quite quick to react, this remark widened Zhong Aimin's heart, so he asked Wu Er to carefully seal the box and put it back on the desk, it is also strange to say, after the handwriting on the silk disappeared, the low clouds outside the house quietly dispersed, and at night, the full moon of the fifteenth hung high, and the light climbed up the dilapidated window edge.

After returning home, the grandparents and grandchildren did not discuss the matter of the box more, the clues are really limited, there is no way to talk about it, but the long-term uneasiness in the old man's heart was finally relieved, as if with the secret of the box was revealed and came to an end, that night to sleep peacefully, the next day Wu Er took the opportunity to mention the graduation trip, although the old man loves this only grandson, but also has always been open-minded, he agreed to Wu Er's idea, I thought that since the silk incident everything has returned to the original ordinary trajectory, as everyone knows, the next graduation trip, actually changed Wu Er's life……

Since the box came to an end, Wu Er rested at home for two weeks, during which he packed up the things to be prepared for the graduation trip, and tomorrow was the time to meet with the fat man Song Pan, Wu Er planned to tell his grandmother to find a hotel near the train station in advance to stay for one night, who knew that knocking on the door of his grandmother's bedroom, there was a sound of footsteps inside for a long time, and when he opened the door, an old page came to his nose, Wu Er couldn't help but raise his hand and shook it in front of his nose: "Grandma, what are you doing in the room all day these days?" I didn't open the door to breathe, and it smelled of damp musty. ”

"Check some of the information left by the ancestors, I always feel like I've seen the word 'aunt' that day, after all, it is the information left by the Qili family, maybe the record is something very important, there is nothing to do, just turn it over. The old man took off his reading glasses, looked up and down, and found that Wu Er was dressed neatly, so he had already guessed what he was knocking on, "Yo, dress up like a human, is this preparing to go out?"

"That's nature!" Wu Er's tone raised, his eyebrows raised, "How can I say that it is also the only seedling of the Qili family, if you don't go out in a chic and dignified way, won't it disgrace the family's reputation?"

"Let's see if you can bear it, go!" The old man was about to twitch, and saw Wu Er jump away, but he walked out of the door with a smile on the corner of his mouth and carefully closed the door, "There is a good lotus seed soup in the kitchen, it should be still warm, and I will take it to eat on the road later." ”

"Wow...... How many generations of good fortune have I saved to be reincarnated as your grandchild. ”

"Okay, don't talk like honey all day long, this college graduate is not small, don't be serious talking to the girl outside, since it's going out to play, just relax, when you enter the society and have a job, you will have to suffer." The old man helped Wu Er to count the things again, and made sure that nothing was left before sending him to the door.

"I know grandma, you don't have to send it, I'll take a ride with Qi Lei, you take care of yourself at home, I'll be back in about half a month." ”

"Didi~!" Before he got out of the courtyard gate, Qi Lei beckoned to Wu Er, pressed the horn a few times, and obviously had been waiting for a long time.

Wu Er didn't delay much, and turned back as he ran: "Grandma, you go in, I will pay attention to safety, don't worry!"

The old man didn't make a sound, just looked at his hurried back and shook his head with a wry smile, and finally saw him get into the car before turning around and walking back to the house, but there was a panic in her heart for no reason, she suddenly paused and looked in the direction of Wu Er's departure, and found that the car left the direction of the village entrance in a moment...... There, at some point, there was a heavy cloud again.
