Chapter 329: Night Conspiracy (Medium)
Da Yu looked at Shen Mei and stopped, thought for a moment, and beckoned to Shen Mei, "What I said, you can't tell others to go, otherwise..." Secretly nodded, feeling that he would not have too much trouble.
As soon as Shen Mei saw Da Yu like this, she knew that there was a play, so she turned around and sat down beside Da Yu, holding her chin with one hand, and looking at Da Yu with a focused expression.
The young man whispered solemnly, and was about to speak, when his eyes looked out of the door with great vigilance. After confirming again that no one had passed by, he slowly said that he often liked to eavesdrop on adults when he was young, and as a result, over time, he also knew some big and small things in the clan, but the affairs of Qiu Yu's family, when he overheard it, he was still sad for Qiu Yu, but he would not tell Shen Mei about this.
"I remember that the year before Brother Aliang came to the mountain, Qiu Yu's father and grandfather Qiu Yu, that is, one of the five elders at the beginning, at that time, my father had not yet taken over the position of patriarch, but my grandfather was both a patriarch and an elder, so his reputation was naturally higher." Dayu fell into memories and didn't forget to check Shen Mei's movements.
"Then, all of a sudden, one day Qiu Yu's father and mother were gone, but I heard that it was because he secretly ran out of the mountain and was attacked by a fierce beast, and he didn't leave anything behind. Dayu suddenly remembered that Qiu Yu actually went out with his father, but everyone said that no one who went out of the mountain could come back alive, so how did Qiu Yu come back? He didn't think about this in detail, and no one mentioned it anymore, so he just stopped it, but when Shen Mei asked today, Dayu himself felt a little incredible.
"Autumn rain?" Shen Mei guessed the matter of the autumn rain in Dayu's words.
"Yes, Qiu Yu originally went out of the mountain with her father, but not long after the people in the clan learned that Qiu Yu's father and mother had an accident, everyone thought that Qiu Yu was her, and eighty percent of them were..."
"But, how many days have passed? I forgot, I saw Qiu Yu come back by herself, with tears on her face, her little eyes were red and swollen, and she looked strange and pitiful, everyone came forward to ask, but she couldn't say a word, and it was her grandfather who came over to bring her back. ”
"So, Qiu Yu is the only one in the clan who went out of the mountain, but nothing happened, and came back unharmed?" Shen Mei had already confirmed her opinion, but in order to let Dayu say more, she deepened her doubts.
"Hmm." Dayu nodded solemnly.
"And then."
"Don't worry, I'll tell you slowly."
Da Yu chuckled, as if he had seen through the mind of the person in front of him.
"Later, Qiu Yu didn't know why, just like a person, she didn't want to play with everyone all day long, even her grandfather she wasn't so close, but one day I heard Qiu Yu muttering something in her mouth, 'Three star vision, all things are chaotic, seven stars return, crape myrtle returns.'" At that time, I was too young to remember what she had been saying to herself, so I remembered these few words. “
"Many adults of the same age children also gradually know the strangeness of the autumn rain, everyone has heard what she said more or less, and then the adults told their children to stay away from the autumn rain, feeling that the autumn rain was frightened and delirious." When Dayu said this, he stopped speaking.
Shen Mei noticed it and raised her eyes to meet Da Yu's eyes. "Later, Qiuyu's grandfather also..."Da Yu finally said, but it can be seen that there is a trace of sympathy in his eyes, this kind of concern is pure, Shen Mei's only luck so far is that no matter what kind of predicament she encounters, she will always meet people like Dayu around her intentionally or unintentionally, like a bright candle in the cold and dark night, although small but enough to give people warmth and strength.
Shen Mei couldn't help but think of Xiao Tao, thinking of Gao Yichen and them, I don't know what happened to them during the days when I left the capital, thinking about it, I was a little distracted, and Dayu found that Shen Mei was absent-minded and a little dissatisfied. touched Shen Mei with his elbow and held his hand on his cheek.
"So, Qiu Yu wasn't the granddaughter of the female elder that day?" Shen Mei came back to her senses and continued to ask about Dayu.
This time, Dayu just nodded.
When Da Yu said this, Shen Mei's doubts became even more, but now that she knew Qiu Yu's life experience and all kinds of encounters, Shen Mei understood why Qiu Yu stared at herself that night, and maybe the final answer was only Qiu Yu could tell her.
But right now, regarding her relationship with Qiu Yu, Qiu Yu didn't seem to like her, and even when she was called by Qiu Yu that day, she didn't really want to tell Shen Mei everything she knew, and all the secrets related to Shen Mei and the Gaoshan Clan.
"Jade coffin" A thought suddenly flashed in Shen Mei's mind, the timing of the appearance of the jade coffin was too coincidental, just seven days after she saw the mutation of the painting on the wall, 'seven' has been a mysterious number since ancient times, just now Dayu mentioned that Qiu Yu once said 'the return of the seven stars', will it mean something, Shen Mei thought of the jade coffin for a while.
"Dayu, where is that jade coffin now?" Changing the wandering just now, Shen Mei asked Dayu with a fixed gaze.
"I don't know, but I saw Brother Ah Liang take someone to the bottom of the opposite mountain this morning." Da Yu said truthfully, this morning I saw Ah Liang passing by with someone, as well as his father, he wanted to follow to see, but was scolded by his father to come back, Da Yu had to stay at home, and he didn't see anyone come back until the evening all day.
"Where's the cave?" Shen Mei asked him.
Dayu stood up, walked straight towards the window sill, signaled to Shen Mei as he walked, stretched out his finger and pointed in the direction, and saw that there was indeed a slightly bulging hole at the foot of the opposite mountain, and there were a few green vines hanging at the entrance of the cave, half-hidden on the shore of the lake.
After saying that, Shen Mei asked Dayu to look outside the door, and after making sure that no one was guarding outside, she jumped out of the window of Dayu's house.
Seeing Shen Mei's action, Dayu couldn't help but be a little worried, and then jumped out of the window. Along a winding mountain road, this is no longer the high danger of the mountainside, Shen Mei is no longer restricted, after Dayu came out, he led the way for Shen Mei, the mountain road here is only familiar to him, the two took advantage of the night and no one noticed, but they walked cautiously.
All I could hear was the rustling sound of the grass rubbing at my feet, mixed with the sound of the wind.
The two of them walked from a hidden place on one side to the foot of the mountain on the opposite side, Dayu cautiously glanced around, and whispered, "Come here." ”
