Chapter 141 Fire Prevention, Theft Prevention and Prevention Village Chief
During the meal, Changxiu's eyes were full of questions, and her expression of wanting to speak and stopping made people feel a little distressed. I looked at the old man Bai who was eating silently and didn't speak, and couldn't help but ask, "Senior, where have you been this afternoon?" We're worried about you! ”
The old man didn't turn his head, continued to eat, and said lightly: "The old man didn't go anywhere, but just went to see the boneless man you were looking for!" ”
"A boneless man?" When I heard this, I was excited.
"Yes!" Old man Bai continued to eat, with a calm and relaxed expression, and stopped talking.
This old man deliberately hangs people's appetites, doesn't he? I turned my head to look at Situ Hong and Mo Lu Wang Wu on the side, and gave them a look, meaning to let them continue to ask, and the three of them winked at me, signaling that I understood.
"Senior Bai ......," Situ Hong said, "The junior and Xianggong came here to do three things, and these three things have a lot to do with the boneless man, so I also ask the seniors to advise!" ”
"The old man has made it clear to Mr. Bi, and I will tell you after the election of the village mayor!" The old man still didn't look up, and ate by himself.
Mo Lu looked at him, "I don't know that the boneless man is a person from this village?" ”
This question is a good question, it is directly a multiple-choice question, choose one of the two options A and B, and it is not an essay question that needs a short answer.
Old Man Bai raised his head and glanced at Mo Lu, and said lightly: "I am no longer from Peach Blossom Village!" ”
What does it mean to not count anymore? Was it expelled? That means it used to be?
Wang Wu picked up the rice bowl with his hand, and asked vaguely: "Senior Bai, can you tell me whether the boneless person we are looking for is a man or a woman?" ”
"It's a man!" Old man Bai replied softly.
"Oh!" Wang Wu nodded and continued to grill rice.
I'm full of black lines! What's going on? A few of us shrewd people asked questions without answers, this is good, Wang Wu casually asked and got a definite answer, I wonder if we shouldn't be so roundabout, it's best to ask directly!
Old man Bai put down the dishes and chopsticks and looked up at me, "Can Bi Gongzi find that person?" ”
I knew what the old man was asking, and I looked at him and shook his head blankly, "I didn't find it!" ”
"Looks like this man is hiding very deeply!" There was some melancholy in Old Man Bai's tone.
I looked at him, "But don't worry, senior, we will continue to search, I don't believe he can hide." ”
"Hmm!" Old man Bai nodded slowly, then turned his head to look at Chang Xiu, "Xiu'er, have you ever come back with wolf eyes?" ”
"The child has been in this house all day long, and I wonder if the wolf's eyes will come back!" Changxiu replied.
"Hmm!" Old man Bai nodded slightly, as if thoughtful. After a while, he raised his eyes to look at me, "Tomorrow is the day of the village mayor election, I wonder if Bi Gongzi is ready to evaluate them?" ”
I put down the dishes and chopsticks, "I'm a little prepared for this, you come to the martial arts test, I'll give them a literary test!" ”
"What is the Literary Exam?" Old man Bai looked at me.
"The so-called literary test is to assess their morality and ethics, Wen Taowu strategy, after all, it is not possible to determine the quality of a person's nature, and the seniors don't want the next village chief of Peach Blossom Village to be just a martial artist, right?!"
Old man Bai looked at me, "What Bi Gongzi said is extremely true!" After a pause, he continued, "Master Bi, you will go to the wolf-eyed grass hut with the old man tonight!" ”
"Again?" I looked at him and asked.
"Yes," the old man nodded slightly, "first, we are going to see if Wolf Eye is back, and we need his help for tomorrow's affairs, and second, the old man is still looking for some clues about that person in the morning!" ”
"Oh!" I nodded.
I didn't expect that the mayor of this Peach Blossom Village would also need the help of the kid Wolf Eyes, if you say so, this Wolf Eyes should be a member of Peach Blossom Village, but I seem to remember that Wolf Eyes gave me cruel words before saying what would happen if I entered the village, and so on, now that I have entered the village, he is gone.
As soon as we had dinner, Old Man Bai and I walked towards the wolf's eye thatched hut, and Chang Xiu also led Situ Hong, Mo Lu and Wang Wu back to the thatched hut.
The time is almost the hour, the sky is cloudless at night, and it is a little quiet and tranquil to walk in this quiet village in the moonlight, which is more comfortable if it is summer, and if you are accompanied by your beloved, it will be more comfortable, uh......, sorry, I went astray!
"Senior, wolf's eyes...... Is it someone from this peach blossom village? As I walked, I asked the doubts in my mind.
"You can say yes or no!" Old man Bai replied ambiguously.
I looked at him and asked softly, "What do you mean by ......?" ”
"Not before, but now it is!" The old man didn't reply, and said to himself.
Isn't this nonsense, the people in the whole village are all chivalrous warriors who want to get out of the big dye vat of the rivers and lakes, and they were not villagers of this peach blossom village before, but now they are not all of them, and this seems to be meaningless at all.
I won't ask anymore, anyway, when I see the wolf's eye when I look back, everything will naturally have an answer, and didn't the kid wolf-eyed write in the letter that he had a relationship with me, since I've seen it, wouldn't it be better!
Soon the old man and I arrived at the courtyard of the wolf's eye.
There is no one in the grass hut without lights, and the dark rumbling at night is quite suitable for making ghost movies.
I looked at the scene in front of me and whispered to Old Man Bai, "Senior, do you think that person will come again in the morning?" ”
"Yes!" Old man Bai replied simply.
"For what?" I chased after it.
"Because he's looking for something!"
"Looking for something?"
"Not bad!" Old man Bai nodded, "The old man thought that it was just a coincidence in the morning, and we disturbed his plans, so he will definitely come back in the evening!" ”
"But ......?"
"Shhh......h
The old man Bai gently pushed open the door of the courtyard, crept in, and quietly pushed open the grass hut and walked in, everything was as if he did it often.
I followed him and watched his movements, wondering if this old man often went in and out of other people's houses, no wonder the old saying goes, a village has three defenses, fire prevention, theft prevention and village chief.
The old man lit the fire fold in his hand, and the grass hut was the same as in the morning, and there was no one, but when I glanced around and landed on the wooden table in the middle of the room, I found a problem.
There was a clear handprint on the wooden table.
The handprint is slender and clear, and at a glance, you can see that the road has just been left, and if you continue to infer it in this way, the person who left the handprint must still be in this grass hut, but this handprint seems to have been left by a woman.
"Senior, this handprint ......!" I was about to say that.
Old man Bai raised his hand to stop my words, and only gave me a gesture.
I knew the meaning of the gesture, and the old man was telling me that the person who left the handprint was still in this grass hut, just like I thought.
But where is this person hiding now?
I winked at him, but the old man was unmoved, and turned around and walked out of the hut.
I followed a few steps out of the hut.
"Senpai......!" I whispered to him.
"Master Bi, it's late at night, let's go back!" After the old man said to himself, he walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
What? Get back? There are still people hiding in this thatched hut, and we have to go back before we find out? Could it be that this old man Bai wants to use a trick to release the tiger back to the mountain? I looked at him quite confidently, alas, forget it, he said go back, this is his territory, his territory listens to him, I am just an outsider.
I walked out of the courtyard after him.
