"Ding Ding Dong-" two streams in the east and west, converging into a lake of more than 200 square meters, a bamboo corridor is erected on the water surface, and the corridor is full of withered yellow fallen leaves, "crunch crunch-"

Stepping on the bamboo corridor, there is a dense bamboo forest in front of you, and then through the winding path in the bamboo forest, a dilapidated courtyard stands there, the yellow mud at the front wall has been drenched by the rain, large and small gaps, the blackened main entrance, because of disrepair, one side of the door wall has been strictly tilted...... Carefully lift the courtyard gate, Xuan followed Haoqing, stepped into the threshold, in front of him is an uninhabited, relatively narrow square courtyard, around the courtyard, is shaded by towering trees, the whole courtyard is very dark, dozens of square meters of patio in the middle, there is a lonely one, not a tall crooked neck pear tree, except for the western corridor, the spare dry firewood, the other three parties, just some dilapidated doors and windows, old chairs...... A cold wind blew, as if the sound of whimpering echoed, Haoqing's heart tightened inexplicably, is this the backyard?

Why is it so deserted, since the pears on the pear tree are not tasty, why not cut down the tree?

Haoqing walked over and inspected the pear tree from top to bottom, the main trunk was only fist-thick, and the branches were also dense, but the color was withered yellow, no wonder the fruit was not delicious...... "Hey, childe, look." ”

Xuan squatted on the other side of the tree, her fingers pulling at the dirt on the ground.

"The mud at the roots of the pear tree seems to be much lighter than the surrounding area."

Haoqing also squatted down, picked up the dead grass, twisted up a handful of mud, and fell into deep thought-"Childe, this tree seems to have been moved, and it shouldn't be long." ”

Xuan stood up.

"Well, it should be."

Haoqing also stood up, clapped his hands, and looked directly into Xuan's eyes, "In the future, don't be a son, you can call me Haoqing." ”

"Yes, Gong-Haoqing."

Xuan Yi buried his head, squatted down slightly, but his heart was full of joy, "Thank you - Haoqing." ”

"Thank you, you and I have been through so much together, we have been buddies for a long time."

Haoqing stretched out his arm and pulled Xuan, "Don't be so polite in the future, it's too troublesome." ”

"Dude?"

Xuan looked up at Haoqing in confusion.

"Oh, yes—somebody's coming."

Haoqing hurriedly pulled Xuan behind the pyre.

This is a woman about 20 years old, dressed as a maid, at this moment, she is holding a bamboo basket, the basket is covered with a thick blue cloth, I saw her while taking small steps, while constantly looking back, after stepping over the threshold, she carefully, as light as possible to close the broken door, then panicked to go to the pear tree, squatted down, neatly lifted the cloth on the basket, the basket contained some fragrant wax, paper money, two small plates of snacks...... After finishing this, the woman entered a wooden house without a door, and brought out a brazier from it...... "Master, madam, Xiaoyun came to worship you today, master, madam, old lady is okay now, you don't have to worry, it's just that Miss, Miss doesn't know where to go, Xiaoyun is sorry for you, didn't take care of Miss......"

The flames in the basin jumped, and Yun'er's face was already full of tears...... Sir, Madame is dead?

Old lady, who is it?

"Butler ......"

At this moment, there was a human voice from the bamboo forest, Yun'er stood up suddenly, and in a hurry, he bent down and stretched out his hand to connect the broken basin with the old and new paper ashes, buckle it upside down on the grass, and then bring the snacks on the ground back to the basket, and then quickly raised his eyes and looked around, and hurriedly walked behind the firewood with the basket...... "Shhhhhh ”

When the three of them met, Xuan hurriedly put his index finger to his lips...... "Chief, do you want to go to the backyard to have a look?" ”

"Look at what? The place was lifeless, and it was full of people in the daytime, and it was ...... to go."

There was no sound in the bamboo forest.

"You-"

Yun'er stared at the two of them with a pair of round eyes, and her thin face was a little deformed from fear.

"We—"

Xuan looked at Haoqing on the side and sighed, "There is no malice. ”

"That's—we haven't seen it today."

Yun'er's face gradually faded red and white, and when she returned to normal, she was clever, so she hurriedly walked over with the basket and moved the door......
