Chapter 14: The Secrets of the Lu Family (I)

Moonlight, shrouded in dark clouds. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoTonight's night is extraordinarily deep.

In the easternmost room on the second floor of the Lu family's ancestral house.

Through the window, watching those people leave one by one, Lu Yilin gently closed the curtains.

Behind him, a man sat in the shadows of the room, faintly seeing only a dark shadow.

"Anyway, she's back." Lu Yilin's expression at the moment looked very strange, "It's been half a year, I didn't expect you to be right." However, if I only came back, I don't know if I can succeed. ā€

After waiting for a while, the other party didn't reply, and Lu Yilin was not surprised, he took out a pack of cigarettes, lit them with the flame of the candle, and took a deep breath: "I'll take a puff, don't you mind?" It's been a few decades of old smoking guns, and it's really not used to smoking all of a sudden, and there are no packs left at home...... Just like our Lu family, although my father worked hard and carefully for decades before his death, he still ...... in the end."

"Knock Knock"

The knock on the door in the dark was extremely abrupt, Lu Yilin's hand shook, the cigarette butts between his fingers fell to the ground, and the burning cigarette butts flickered brightly and darkly, like the eyes of the devil, full of malice.

"It's it, it's still coming......" I didn't expect that even the end times couldn't stop it from coming.

……

The air in the early spring morning is always cold and a little humid, and although Lujia Village is far away from the city center, with the green mountains and green water at its back, Ye Na actually smells the fragrance of grass and earth, which is a benefit that her nose, accustomed to the smell of gasoline and corpses, has not enjoyed for a long time.

"Huh? Brother, it's early. As soon as Ye Na opened the door, he saw Ye Wei, who happened to end the morning exercise, standing outside the door, the warm sunlight poured on his muscular body, every drop of sweat flashed with colorful light, Ye Na, who was looking against the light in the room, couldn't help but close her eyes.

"Early." Ye Wei strode closer to the house, and the towel that wiped his sweat was hung on the shelf behind the door by him, and then picked up a set of clean clothes and pants from the sofa and walked into the bedroom.

Actually, my brother is also very good, although he is not very handsome at first glance, but the more he looks at it, the more he tastes, and he is calm and athletic, a standard affordable man. It's a pity, it's a cousin! Ye Na lamented in her heart.

After a while, Ye Wei changed his clothes and walked out and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, go to the Lu family's ancestral house." ā€

Ye Na looked at him several times in surprise, last night her cousin emphasized to her several times that she was not allowed to interfere in the family affairs of Rat Bao again, why did she ...... again this morning However, Ye Na, who was overflowing with gossip, still accompanied her very happily.

Along the way, neither of them spoke. Ye Na was busy looking around at the scenery and environment of Lujia Village, while Ye Wei was due to his personality, he was introverted and never said much.

Originally, according to Ye Wei's character, he really didn't want to get involved in other people's "housework". But this village gives him a very good feeling, whether it is the surrounding environment or the atmosphere between people, there is a rare peace and tranquility after the end of the world, which even a large base built by the military cannot do.

Maybe this can be the place where Ye Na belongs. It was with this idea that Ye Wei had to change his original intention and care about the "housework" of Qi Qibao, after all, this would also be related to the stay of him and Ye Na.

Most of the people walking around the village are old and weak, women and children, and the young and middle-aged people are responsible for handling the various passes of the village or going out to clean up the zombies in the vicinity.

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from behind the two of them, "You guys...... Is this going to the Lu family's ancestral home? ā€

The Ye family brothers and sisters followed the sound and looked back, and it was an old woman with a wrinkled face who spoke, her pale hair and sunken eye frames showing her age.

Ye Na frowned and took a step back in disgust, she has always cared about a person's appearance and image, and she has never been willing to deal with people who have nothing to do with the word "beauty".

Ye Wei had a flash of thought in his heart, and stepped forward and replied, "Yes, old woman." Are you also from the Lu clan? ā€

"Hahaha, Lu clansman." The old woman shook her head, and unconsciously glanced at the direction of the Lu family's ancestral home, her eyes full of disdain, hatred, and ...... Fear!

"The affairs of the Lu family are not as simple as you think, young boy, since you are not from Lujia Village, it is better not to have anything to do with them."

"What's not easy?" Ye Wei then asked, "Old woman, can you tell us about it?" ā€

The old woman waved her hand, looking unwilling to talk more.

Ye Wei sank slightly, took out a few crystal nuclei and handed them over.

The old woman pretended to push it, but when she saw that she couldn't push it, she accepted it silently.

She slowly approached the Ye family brothers and sisters, lowered her voice and said, "You guys should be careful, too!" I heard that the Lu family has produced crazy people from generation to generation, and the people in their family are not mentally normal. And every few decades, someone dies in that house. ā€

Hearing such a hot topic early in the morning caused the Ye family brothers and sisters to look at each other.

"Can you be more detailed?"

Ye Wei understood that there were some things that only the old people of Jigu would know, and even the rat treasure who was born and raised here might not know a thing or two.

The old woman looked around, beckoned to the Ye family brothers and sisters, and led them to the back wall of a house, her voice was lowered, and she said mysteriously: "Don't say it's what I said...... I have been married since I was 17 years old, and now I am 70 years old, and I have seen the Lu family go up and down. It's a weird family, every once in a while somebody goes crazy, says weird things, does something deviant, and then somebody starts dying. I heard that they all died of illness, but how can there be such a coincidence in the world. ā€

"How often do people die?" Ye Wei's face was serious.

"yes, a batch dies every few decades, almost all of them! Death! And the dead are all close relatives! Don't look at us people who are called Lu clansmen, but in fact, there are no blood relatives within five suits of their family! Except for the same surname, everyone is not related by blood at all. Even in the genealogy enshrined in the ancestral hall, they only remember the blood inheritance of their family, and we are just like outsiders, we don't even have a name, so we are still clansmen? ā€

The old woman babbled a lot of trivial things about the Lu family, such as although someone in the Lu family often goes crazy, but that person will return to normal after a period of madness, and then inherit the position of the patriarch, but those who are not crazy will "die of illness". For example, in addition to "dying of illness", none of the Lu family members who died of natural decay could live past the age of 60. Another example......

"! What are you doing here? ā€

A big boy with two dead fish eyes suddenly came around the back wall of the house, and his extremely ordinary question made the old woman tremble.
