Nie Shuyao's strong appearance surprised the old man, and he stammered, "You...... You're back. ”

This is not at all like the middle of the complaint just now, and it seems to have a hint of flattery.

"Didn't you just complain?" Nie Shuyao snorted coldly and put the wolf cubs directly into the hands of the stupid girl, and said, "Take care of them, you must be by your side when they open their eyes." ”

Stupid dad didn't know why, "This is ......." ”

"Wolves!" Nie Tianxi said with a smile.

"What?" Scared, the stupid girl almost threw the wolf cub in his hand.

Nie Shuyao also smiled and said: "Give it to you, train them well, I believe you can train them to be as obedient as dogs." ”

"This ...... No, if my father is still here, I guess I can raise a dog. He was an old hunter, but he lost his bow during his last hunting, and came back with a wound, and he was out of breath when he arrived at the gate. The more the stupid girl spoke, the more he sighed, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

"What's your last name?" Until now, Nie Shuyao still doesn't know what his surname is, is this considered a dereliction of duty? Nie Shuyao felt that he was not a good detective yet.

"The surname is Li, Li Dashan."

Hearing the name, everyone's expressions were wonderful.

Nie Shuyao couldn't help but smile and said, "Plough the mountain, it's really a good name." ”

"Hey, my dad took it." Li Dashan is very honest and honest, and it really matches his name.

Nie Shuyao turned his head and found that the old man's expression was even more exciting, touched his nose, and quipped, "Old man, what are you looking at?" Do you think Li Dashan is not good? ”

The old man was still stunned, as if he hadn't heard Nie Shuyao's words, he grabbed Li Dashan's hand and said, "Big brother, your surname is really Li?" ”

This handful of wolf cubs in Li Dashan's arms was thrown directly to the ground, but fortunately, Jiang Yi caught it quickly.

"Big ...... Uncle, is there something wrong with you? Our ancestors were all surnamed Li. Li Dashan was confused by the old man, and he didn't know what to say.

"Hey, I said old man, which tendon you didn't match correctly." Nie Shuyao sneered on the side.

The old man frowned, and looked at Nie Shuyao helplessly, "Miss Nie, I thought you were a lady, but I didn't expect you to be so ......." ”

"So what?" Nie Shuyao's face changed suddenly, and she said coldly. She also felt as if her instinct had been released, and she really didn't want to pretend to be a lady in this barren mountain wilderness.

"Stubborn...... Naughty. In the end, the old man only said the word.

Nie Shuyao is not so easy to fool, he originally wanted to deceive him, but now he wants to know why he is so excited to hear the surname "Li".

"Don't want to explain?" In the courtyard of Nuoda, there are only a few simple benches that have just been made. Nie Shuyao sat down with such a big grin.

"Well, I know that I can't hide anything from you." The old man pulled Li Dashan to sit down as well.

In the end, except for the fat aunt and the stupid girl, everyone gathered in the courtyard to listen to the old man's story again. It's just that this story, the old man said it was true.

"My friend's surname is Li, and as far as I know, the original owner of our current village was surnamed Li. I don't know if the big brother knows here? As he spoke, he took out the jade pendant and said, "Big brother, do you know this jade pendant?" ”

The yellow jade pendant is very beautiful, emitting a misty glow in the sun, and it is a pity that Li Dashan does not know it.

"I don't know anything so valuable, my family has lived in Qingshui Village for generations. I have been poor for generations, and the most expensive thing I have ever seen is a jade bracelet brought by my daughter-in-law. "Li Dashan is very sincere.

The old man still didn't give up, and asked again: "Big brother Gui Geng today?" ”

"It's almost thirty."

"What did your family do before?"

"My father used to be Lizheng, and his ancestors were all farming, and occasionally went up to the mountains to hunt something. Unfortunately, my father said that I was not in good health and would not let me learn to hunt, saying that it was a dangerous job. But I'm in good health...... Li Dashan talked for a long time, in short, his father didn't let him learn to hunt for all kinds of strange reasons.

Nie Shuyao seemed to understand something when she heard this, and felt that there was still the last veil in front of her, as long as this veil was revealed, maybe the secret of this ruin could be revealed.

"Lai? Pear. Nie Shuyao pursed her lips, is there any connection here?

The old man then asked, "Do you grow pear trees in your family?" ”

Li Dashan shook his head and said, "Uncle, don't you know that you have also lived in my house?" No one lives in our village in Pear Tree. ”

"Isn't it?" The old man said quietly.

The old man's disappointed look made Li Dashan very upset, and said, "Uncle, I'm really not the person you're looking for." ”

The old man shook his head and didn't speak, looking at Nie Shuyao, "Do you remember what I told you about this jade pendant?" Now it's officially over to you. ”

Nie Shuyao took the jade pendant and said, "Do you think I can do it?" ”

"Yes!"

"Okay." Putting away the jade pendant, Nie Shuyao pulled the old man out of the door, "You need to answer me a few questions." ”

The old man didn't excuse himself this time, "I know everything!" ”

Nie Shuyao pointed to the lookout and asked, "Do you know that there is a skeleton with a separate body and head on it?" ”

"I don't know."

One sentence was so blocked that Nie Shuyao didn't know what to ask, and said hatefully: "What does it mean to know everything?" ”

The girl asked. The old man is also very single, and he just doesn't want to say it.

Nie Shuyao endured and said, "Where is this?" ”

"Lijiazhai."

"When was the village slaughtered?"

The old man was silent for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"What is Li Dashan's true identity?" Nie Shuyao asked a different question.

The old man frowned and said, "As far as I guess, he should be one of the descendants of the lineage here." was adopted by the hunters of Qingshui Village, and there is also a family surnamed Li in Qingshui Village, who was originally a servant of the master here. That's all I know, and the friend choked before he could finish his sentence. ”

"So, the reason why the current Li Zheng targeted him is that he already understands his identity? That's why I asked him for something, but Li Dashan didn't know about it. Maybe his father knew, but he died a few years ago, and the thing became a mystery. Speaking of this, Nie Shuyao played with the jade pendant in his hand and said with a smile: "What is that?" ”

The old man still shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Nie Shuyao looked at the topaz pendant and said, "Is it it?" ”

In the noon sun, this jade is really beautiful, and the dragon on it seems to have come to life, and even the eyeballs have an aura.

"Definitely not." The old man affirmed this time.

"Well, I'll trust you once." He put the jade pendant in his sleeve pocket, but when he put it away, he took out the leather whip and whipped it into the grass on the left as fast as lightning.

"Squeak!" With a thud, a fat rabbit rolled out of the grass.

Nie Shuyao frowned, "It turned out to be a rabbit." ”

She picked up the rabbit and walked away, muttering as she went, "Add lunch at noon." ”

The old man stood in place, also looking at the place where the rabbit had appeared just now, his face cloudy.

After lunch, the second artillery and Li Dashan's family were left, and everyone followed the old man to a place.

Not far from the village, through a grove of trees, there is a large pond that covers almost an acre but is artificially built.

The pond is not deep, and you can vaguely see the bottom of the water, but the pond is full of strange aquatic plants, the tentacles of these aquatic plants are very long, and they are also very fat, and many bones can be seen in them, and there are also people and birds and beasts.

"I see!" Nie Shuyao understood how the cattle herder and the drowning child died, they were not drowned in the river at all.

"It's not safe here, go back to your accommodation!"

As Nie Shuyao had speculated before, if the old man could find this ruin, Li Zheng could also find it. With this pond, this deserted village, the legend of the water ghost has also surfaced.

These aquatic plants are artificially cultivated, and the same is true of the aquatic plants in the Qingshui River, with this aquatic grass and a few more drowning incidents, the legend of the water ghost slowly spread.

In order to protect Lijiazhai on the other side of the river, in order to make the people living in Shili Eight Village afraid, they created water ghosts. So over the years, this place is still a paradise for the Li people.

But as time goes by, the paradise will also deteriorate, and the reason is that the Li clan people can't find treasures, or treasures. The Li clan should not be completely closed to the outside world, there are always people who have trusted them to go out to hunt for treasures, but it is precisely because of this that this secret has been discovered by some unscrupulous people.

The person who can have the strength to slaughter the village must not be an ordinary person, and he should attack Lijiazhai under the cooperation of the inside and outside, but he underestimated the strength of Lijiazhai, and some members of the lineage still escaped.

This time, the village should have been defeated by both sides, the treasure was not found, and the Lijiazhai was also destroyed. Since then, this place has only become a peach orchard in the memory of some people.

But just two years ago, another group of people found them, for the treasure, and these people were also people with great backgrounds. And Li Zheng of Shimizu Village is likely to be one of them.

When she returned to her residence, the first thing Nie Shuyao asked Li Dashan was, "Why don't the people from your village come to the other side of the river?" ”

Li Dashan replied: "You can't cross the river, the other side of the river is the territory of water ghosts, and you can't cross it." My dad said that it wasn't like no one had tried to cross the river before, but they were all eaten by water ghosts. The tragic situation was the same as the two people who died in our village two days ago. ”

The corners of Nie Shuyao's mouth curled, "Understood, poor Qingshui Village." ”

Then she locked herself in a room far away from their main house, and had to hurry up to get the explosives. Fortunately, she remembered that her chemistry was not bad, and that she should be able to make a simpler earth explosive.

In his busy figure, the sky slowly darkened.

Nie Tianxi couldn't help her, but he sat outside the door alone and waited for her, Nie Shuyao didn't allow him to go in, but this didn't hinder his worries.

The crescent moon slowly rose, and the wolf howl outside began again. Then there are the crickets and other insects in the yard, which "squeak" and mixes into a unique tune of summer night and early autumn.

The tune, along with the occasional jingle in the room, was monotonous but reassuring. Slowly, Nie Tianxi's eyelids were a little heavy.

Suddenly, from a distance, a woman's singing voice was heard poignantly and mournfully.

"Come back, come back ......."

The voice penetrated into Nie Shuyao's eardrums, and she immediately put down her work and pushed the door open, "Xi'er! ”R1152
