Chapter 096 [Aren't Ordinary People!] 】
That's right, the moment he looked at the man with his flashlight, he clearly saw that he was wearing a gold-rimmed cloak, and he may have panicked at that time, but the golden light was too dazzling in the darkness, and he didn't want to notice that he couldn't do it, but it was ...... How did he know?
The other old men noticed that something was wrong with Lao Zhang, and they focused their eyes on him, expecting him to give an answer.
After a long time, Lao Zhang got up and sat down next to Yang Yi, and whispered with a serious face: "That's right, he does have a gold-rimmed cloak on him, but how do you know?" Don't...... You also met him in the mountains last night? ”
He? The first thing that flashed in Yang Yi's mind was the row of footprints under the eaves in the valley.
"Uncle, I'll tell you the truth, the reason why the two of us got lost was because we were looking for that cloak and couldn't imagine that someone had taken it." Yang Yi said tentatively: "Uncle, I don't know where the person you are talking about is now?" I think I can meet him. ”
Lao Zhang's face changed, with an incomparable fear in his eyes, and it took half a cup of tea to calm down.
He returned to the table and whispered a few words to the old people, and then came back and said to Yang Yi: "Young man, I don't know if it's convenient for you, if it's convenient, I want to ask you to borrow a step to speak." ”
"Okay, you lead the way."
"Eh, I haven't finished eating yet, don't pull me, I'll take two more sips, this thing is delicious, don't waste it."
"Okay, I'll eat it later, it's important to get down to business." Yang Yi dragged her away, although he knew that eating was the most important thing for her now.
Lao Zhang led the way in front and led them through two alleys to an old house on the edge of the village.
The house, though a bit old, was much larger than the houses along the way, and there was a separate front yard with a flock of chickens and a dirt dog tethered to the feet of a huge stone lion in the corner. Walk through the front yard and enter the house, there is a ** bust photo pasted in front of the hall, and the old ones are almost antiques. Compared with ordinary farmhouses, Lao Zhang's house is obviously very neat, with teacups, chairs, and everything placed very neatly.
There was a table of eight immortals in the hall, where the family ate, and an old woman was cleaning up the leftover breakfast on the table. In the countryside, they generally eat in the living room, and when guests come to clean up, they sit at the table to drink tea and chat and eat melon seeds.
"These two young men are ......" The old woman wiped her hand on her apron and looked at Lao Zhang inquiringly.
"Don't worry about it so much, these two haven't had breakfast yet, you go to the kitchen and make some for them, this girl, you like to eat pot edges, don't you, make more pot edges for this girl, and bring them to the second floor in a while."
Yang Yi is in the mood to eat now, and said busily: "No, no, no, we have just eaten a little in the restaurant, grandma, you don't have to be busy." ”
"What's the point, you're not hungry, I'm still hungry." Xiangyi pouted and kicked him, how could those two pots be enough for her to eat, this girl's strength was sealed, and her appetite did not decrease at all.
Yang Yi glanced at her directly, and said embarrassedly: "Grandma, you can just make some pot sides, don't bother to make anything else, let's just eat some casually." ”
"Eh, then you wait a while, and I'll do it for you." With a smile, the old woman brought the dishes and chopsticks on the table into the kitchen and got busy.
Lao Zhang looked at his wife's old but still bright smile, the frightened look on his face was somewhat relieved, and he led Yang Yi and the others to a living room on the second floor.
will prepare a farmer with a living room, Lao Zhang is obviously not an ordinary farmer, which also conjectures Yang Yi's conjecture.
Lao Zhang didn't put up a show, he sat on the bamboo chair with the two of them, the atmosphere was a little silent, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
"Uncle, if I'm not mistaken, you should be the head of this village, right?" Yang Yi broke the silence, Lao Zhang was slightly stunned, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded: "The young man is very observant, hehehe." ”
"It's not that he has a keen eye, but that the old man really feels different." Yang Yi politely replied, and immediately cut to the chase, "Village Chief, you took us home to talk alone, you should have something to say to us, right?" ”
Lao Zhang thought for a while, nodded, and said, "I think the gold-rimmed cloak you said shouldn't be an ordinary cloak, right?" You say the cloak is yours, so I don't think you're ordinary young people, right? ”
Yang Yi and Xiangyi were stunned? This old man is worthy of being the village head, and his analytical ability is so accurate.
"Why does the village chief think that we are not ordinary people?" Yang Yi asked lightly.
"Because that person is not an ordinary person." Lao Zhang always seemed reluctant to say more about that person, and even if he did, it was only a few words.
If it was just an ordinary cloak, that person would never take a fancy to it, since it was worn by him, then it means that the gold-rimmed cloak is by no means an ordinary thing, and Yang Yi, who claims to be its owner, will naturally not be an ordinary person.
Yang Yi vaguely felt that the "he" that the old people were talking about was not an ordinary person, but now that he got a clear answer, he was relieved.
No matter how ordinary the other party is, he must get that cloak back.
"Village Chief, since we are chatting alone now, I might as well say it bluntly, that cloak is indeed not an ordinary thing, and I must take it back. Village chief, can you tell me where that person is? I can go to him alone. ”
"Alone with him?" The village chief frowned and shook his head, and said, "This is too dangerous, I can't let you go to him alone." ”
"Oh, why are you such a mother-in-law, this old man, what's not dangerous, isn't it just a person, you tell us where he is, we go directly to him and don't need you to follow, what are you afraid of?" Xiangyi glared at Lao Zhang impatiently, the person who dislikes such a mother-in-law the most, whether it is an old man or a young person.
Yang Yi patted her and said slightly angrily: "Can you speak politely?" Don't be big or small all day. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, this girl has a straight nature, don't blame her, don't blame her." Lao Zhang nodded understandingly, and said to Yang Yi: "Young man, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I have to deal with this matter carefully, the stakes are very high, I really can't make a decision easily, otherwise it is likely that you will lose your life in vain." Are you really not ordinary people as I guessed, young man? Obviously, he brought them home to talk because he guessed that they were not ordinary people, and if Yang Yi wanted to know the whereabouts of that person, he obviously had to prove that he was not an ordinary person.
Yang Yi thought about it, and didn't want to prove how special he was with words, so he got up and walked downstairs directly. Xiang Yi gave him a speechless look, as if she had guessed what he was going to do, while Lao Zhang followed in a daze......
