Chapter 16: The Golden Fragment
Chapter 16: The Golden Fragment
After staying for six days, Wang Jifei carefully cleaned up the traces he left behind, and spent a lot of time, and finally only the black stones in the fire pit and the ashes in the pit were taken out and thrown into the river.
Suddenly, Wang Jifei found that there seemed to be something in the ashes, and when he took it out, it looked like a small half piece of paper. With a slight shake, the ashes on the paper fell off on their own, revealing a dazzling golden color, which turned out to be half a sheet of gold leaf.
This gold leaf is half of a gold page, and it is engraved with dense mystical characters. Wang Jifei tried it, and this half of the gold page was extremely soft and could be folded at will. This golden page is supposed to be hidden in a book, and it was burned by himself when he lit a fire two days ago.
"Unexpectedly, Ye Lan still has one hand, it seems that this golden page is not simple, put it away and then talk ......" I searched for it in the ashes again, but I didn't find anything else, so Wang Jifei left the cave.
Towards evening, Wang Jifei, who had hidden his things and carried his prey, returned to the village exhausted. After resting for a while, as usual, he took the meat that had been prepared and came to Uncle Yin's house for dinner.
"Daqiang, I'm here. Before entering the door, Wang Jifei shouted loudly, and then said hello to his uncle and aunt.
Drinking wine and eating vegetables, the topic was guided intentionally or unintentionally Wang Jifei talked about what happened in the village during his hunting.
The aunt told him that the village chief was buried on the hillside outside the village, and that he only found it after the village chief's wife and daughter returned yesterday. With the help of the villagers, the mouth of the cellar was turned out, and the body was found. At that time, the mother and daughter cried to death......
Hearing this, Wang Jifei sneered in his heart. It seems that after the Ye sisters came back, they secretly dealt with it first, and the people who called didn't know where they threw Xu Lihu's corpse......
About half an hour later, he made an appointment with Uncle Yin to go to Shimen Town to buy things in three days, and Wang Jifei went back. Before leaving, Yin Qiang also told him that tomorrow is the first seven days of the village chief, and don't forget to go to Shangzhuxiang.
Back in his room, Wang Jifei sat and pondered.
It seems that no one has found out about their affairs, and they will see Ye Lan's reaction when they make incense tomorrow.
What is the big thing they are talking about? Now that Ye Mei'er has broken through, is it about to start? Do you want to eavesdrop again......
It's time for Uncle Seventh to come back, it's been eight or nine days.
Jin Yinzhi should have been absorbed, but it's a pity.
Next, I still cultivate slowly, and I can't leak flaws.
......
Wang Jifei, who was in a mess of thoughts, sat quietly for a long time, and then calmed down and began to wash up. After practicing the breathing technique, Wang Jifei lay down and rested.
After falling asleep, Wang Jifei dreamed of those eagle-like sharp eyes, staring at him motionlessly, but giving him a familiar feeling.
When I woke up the next day, I remembered the dream I had last night, and I couldn't help but feel very strange. He had had similar dreams several times these days, and those eyes Wang Jifei felt a bit like the eyes of the Wind Eagle, that is to say, the life beast was looking at him in a dream. It's a weird idea......
First exercised, then went to the dart game to take a turn, chatted with colleagues and farted for a while. looked at the sun, it was almost ten o'clock, and Wang Jifei, who had finished brushing his sense of existence, got up to say goodbye and went to the village chief's house.
Walking into the bamboo forest of the village chief's house, Wang Jifei looked at the seven houses that had all been burned down, leaving only the blackened foundation. The villagers helped build a bamboo shed in the original courtyard, and in the middle was a table of eight immortals, on which was placed the spiritual seat of the village chief.
Maybe it was because he heard the footsteps, and the cries of two women came from the shed, and Wang Jifei, who understood in his heart, didn't say much, and walked straight to the bamboo shed.
"It turned out that Ah Fei was here. Ye Lan, who was disguised as the wife of the village chief, stopped crying, wiped her tears, and said to Wang Jifei.
"Aunt Wang, Mei'er, I'll come to see the village chief, you are mourning. Wang Jifei, who looked grief-stricken, comforted. The corner of his eye also peeked at Ye Mei'er, who was dressed in plain clothes, from time to time.
At this time, Ye Mei'er picked up the incense, lit it on the candle and handed it to Wang Jifei. After receiving the incense, Wang Jifei respectfully bowed to the village chief's spiritual seat and kowtowed. After the ceremony, Wang Jifei couldn't stay longer, and secretly glanced at Ye Mei'er again, ready to leave.
But Ye Lan didn't let him go, under the pretext that the village chief was gone, lonely, and wanted to find someone to talk to, so Wang Jifei stayed with her.
When Wang Jifei heard this, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Could it be that he was discovered? At this time, shouldn't the two of them honestly keep their filial piety, how could they leave a strange man in the mourning hall......
Wang Jifei, who was helpless, had no choice but to continue to pretend to be an honest appearance of a sledgehammer and stay.
Sure enough, the Ye sisters seemed to be complaining, but they were actually taking his words. first cried that his mother and mother were miserable, the man died, and the house was burned, so he had to go to his relatives. As he spoke, he talked about Wang Jifei, saying that he was going to find a good home for Ye Mei'er or something, and then asked about Wang Jifei's situation without a trace, focusing on the past few days......
After about half an hour, he came out of the bamboo shed with a smile on his face and left the village chief's house step by step.
