"I'm passing by here, so I'm coming to see you little girl."

This is the third time Yang Jie has been to Qingshi Village in a week, the first time he sent Xiao Xiyu home, the second time he hurriedly went to the reservoir, but the third time, he had other purposes.

"Pity the rain? Who's coming? ”

Just when the little girl opened the wooden door, there was also a voice in the inner room, it was Xiao Xiyu's grandfather.

"Grandpa, it's the big brother who sent me back last time." Hearing her grandfather's question, the girl immediately turned around and replied, and then moved out of the way: "Big brother, come in." ”

With a chuckle, Yang Jie walked into this wooden house, Xiao Xiyu's grandfather knew it, if it wasn't for this old man last time, the thousand yuan would not have been given away at all.

Putting away the umbrella for the time being, Yang Jie immediately walked into the inner room, and as soon as he walked in, he saw an old man wrapped in a thick coat, half lying on the wooden bed.

"Old man, is your health better lately?"

"It's much better, it's much better, there is Officer Lao Yang's memory, cherish the rain, move a stool for Officer Yang, and pour a glass of boiling water."

The old man lying on the bed was inconvenienced, so he could only greet Yang Jie verbally, but when he saw Yang Jie come in, the old man was also very happy.

That day, his granddaughter went out to sell sweet potatoes, but he didn't agree, but he was not in good health, and if he didn't go out to set up a stall, the family would have no income. But who knows, the girl only went out for a while, and she encountered those troubles.

If Yang Jie hadn't appeared, he couldn't imagine what would have happened to his granddaughter that day. Naturally, Yang Jie can come to his house again, how can the old man be unhappy?

"Don't bother so much, I'll just sit here and talk to the old man."

With a wave of his hand, Yang Jie signaled that Xiao Xiyu didn't have to bother, but the little girl was very stubborn and poured a cup of boiled water for Yang Jie with a hot water kettle.

"Old man, your body is gradually not as good as before, and Xiyu is too young, what are your plans for the future?"

"What can I plan, the old man can last one day is a day, I just hope that this girl can grow up early, and then I will go, and I don't care."

When the old man opened his mouth, the girl on the side naturally listened to it, and immediately said a little anxiously: "Grandpa." ”

The granddaughter was in a hurry, and the old man could only smile and shake his head: "Hehe, grandpa just said that, my life is very hard, and the king of Hades can't take me away for the time being." ”

"Officer Yang is here today, I'm afraid there is something, right? If you have something, you might as well say it directly, if you can help, the old man will definitely help. ”

The so-called old man becomes a fine man, even if he is just an ordinary rural old man, after decades of baptism, he also has an extraordinary level of observation. Without Yang Jie to speak, he already knew that the other party was here not just to see himself and his granddaughter.

"Old man, I do have some things I want to ask, and it's not a big deal, it's just that I've been running here more diligently recently, and I suddenly want to know about Qingshi Village."

"For example, the history and rumors here, I'm a little interested."

Yang Jie said this, naturally there is a reason for him, a dead body suddenly appeared under the bridge by the river, and everyone's eyes may be focused on what the deceased had contact with before his death, who he had an argument with, a quarrel, and what conflicts he had.

But he doesn't think so, compared to the above information that may become the key to solving the case, Yang Jie wants to know, why did a young painter go to such a poor and remote place to sketch?

Curious? Or is it a coincidence?

If it is the former, then what is there in this bluestone village worthy of a modern youth's nostalgia? No computer, no wifi, can you live here?

In Yang Jie's opinion, Qingshi Village is really nothing unusual, except for a nearby reservoir with the same name, it seems to be not much different from other villages.

Even some well-developed villages are far more environmentally sound. Where can't you go to sketch, you have to come here alone?

"Hehe, Officer Yang is interested in this? The old man has some stories to talk about. When the old man heard what Yang Jie said, he smiled and looked out of the house as if he was reminiscing: "Let's talk about the name of this Qingshi Village first." ”

"This is not a rare place, at first there was no one around, and then a group of clansmen migrated here, slowly settled, and it can be regarded as taking root. Because there is a huge bluestone standing there halfway up the mountain, I don't know who said it first, but in the end, the name of Qingshi Village has been passed down from generation to generation. ”

"That bluestone, some people used to say that it was a heavenly monument, and some people said that it was a divine stone. But this is a long time ago, and the old man was not born at that time, and he didn't believe it at all. ”

Bluestone? Celestial monument?

This is a bit interesting, it is estimated that the people of the feudal period were the general name of some naturally formed but inexplicable strange things, and it is not uncommon to see similar natural strange things.

Yang Jie meditated in his heart, and the old man also continued: "But this stone is indeed very big, even if it is broken into a small piece, it is the size of a grinding plate. ”

"Oh? Is this bluestone broken? Hearing this, Yang Jie raised his eyebrows and nodded suddenly: "Yes, I haven't seen any big bluestone after a few trips back and forth." ”

"It's broken, it's broken, I wasn't born at that time, and I heard my grandfather talk about it later."

"After the end of the Qing Dynasty in the last century, isn't our country a mess? Today there is Wang Dashuai, tomorrow there will be a Commander Li, and we Jiangnan will not be exempt from vulgarity. When I was a child, I heard my grandfather say, and at that time, I didn't know which unlucky commander it was, and I heard that we had a treasure hidden in this place. ”

"As long as you destroy the bluestone, you can get the treasure, and then you can be the king. Hehe, that fool really believed it, and sent his soldiers to blow up the bluestone, and then dug three feet into the ground to dig up the treasure. ”

As a result, the result was naturally nothing, the baby was not dug up, and the commander himself did not live long before he was down. It was the big bluestone he blew up that the villagers collected, and there was a piece behind my old house, which my grandfather picked up. ”

"Huh? I know I know, that stone in the backyard for the little stove, that grandpa's grandfather picked up? Xiyu on the side also looked very surprised, obviously the old man had not told her about these past events before.

"Yes, that piece of gravel is also interesting to my grandfather, I saw a lot of people picking it up, and I picked it up, if I wanted to pick it up, I am afraid that it is several times larger than this. If Officer Yang is interested, he can ask the girl to take you to see it. ”

"It's not in a hurry, I'm more interested in the story you tell, the old man might as well tell me more."

Yang Jie is not in a hurry to see the stone, after all, a gravel has been placed for nearly a hundred years, and he can't run away if he goes to see it later, not to mention that even if he looks at it, he probably won't be able to see any fame.

"Then I'll talk about this reservoir again, old man, I have lived in the village all my life, and I have seen this bluestone reservoir bit by bit from exploration to completion."

"But it's also strange to say, when it was built, it was said that a very large reservoir was going to be built, and the people in the village were also lively for a while. But in the end, I don't know why, it seems that there was a problem with the underground construction, and it was not built according to the original plan, and it became what it is now. ”

"But it's strange not that it was twenty years ago, it's in recent years. In recent years, this reservoir has become strange, it is like it can swallow things as if it is alive, it is very evil, and even two boats are gone. There are many rumors in the nearby village that there are ghosts and monsters at the bottom of this. ”

Listening to the old man's words, the more mysterious it became, Yang Jie smiled, just listen to a story and don't feel at ease, the reservoir is so big, it's normal to have something missing, and it's more likely that the boat sinks.

As for not finding it later, maybe it was when the gate was opened, it drifted away along the channel.

After gossiping with the old man, Yang Jie got up and went to the backyard of the wooden house, and saw the bluestone under the shelf of a small stove.

Out of curiosity, Yang Jie put down the stove, and raised his hands close to the bluestone, but he felt his arms sink down, this thing is not light, at least sixty or seventy pounds.

A stone the size of a basketball like a flat millstone can have such a heavy weight, Yang Jie's eyes can't help but carefully look at this bluestone fragment.

"This is? Blue Xuanshi? Without looking closely, Yang Jie hadn't noticed the reason, but when he stared at the gravel with his eyes, a memory was hooked up by it.

Qingxuan stone is the most wear-resistant stone in the ruthless memory, and the most resistant to rain, wind and sand in nature, its hardness does not need to be said, and the sealing surname of the entire stone body is also excellent.

People are ruthless in middle age, know the principles of heaven, understand yin and yang, although there is no internal force in the body, but with a blade waving his arm, he can easily crack the stele, this is because he can understand every trace of the texture of the stele, and can cut the boulder like a cow.

However, the world is impermanent, there are always some stones that are ruthless and helpless, although there are not many but they exist after all, and this Qingxuanshi is one of them.

"I should be right, this is Qingxuanshi, the Qingxuanshi known as 'Jianbi Xuantie'."

"It's just that Qingxuan stone is not very useful, even in the era of ruthlessness, only a few people can use this kind of stone. Where did the Qingxuanshi in this ordinary village come from? There is also the big bluestone in the old man's mouth, if it is really a giant bluestone, how can it appear here? ”

In an instant, Yang Jie had a few more questions in his mind, but these were just his personal interests, and they had nothing to do with the current murder, so naturally he wouldn't take time to think about it, nodded, and put the stove back up and turned back to the inner room.

"Old man, the weather has not been good recently, you still have to take care of your health, otherwise you will fall, and you will really become an orphan in the rain. I'll take my leave, and I'll take the time to see your grandparents when I have time. ”

"Hehe, Officer Yang, please take care of it, the old man's physical condition is also clear in his heart. Girl, go see off your big brother. ”

"Okay, big brother, I'll send you out."

"No," shaking his head, Yang Jie pressed his right hand on the girl's head: "Remember, don't go out to set up a stall alone in the future, it's very dangerous." ”

"Let's go, you don't have to send me."

Finally, with a wave of his hand, Yang Jie stepped out of the inner room, took an umbrella and stepped into the stone road outside the house. After listening to the story here for a while, it's almost time to meet. (To be continued.) )
