Jiang Ling's words made my pupils shrink.

Oh, yes!

Forty-nine old men, but not four old men, where can they say that they will die?

And, at this moment, looking at the surrounding buildings in front of you, there are not many traces of burning, and even the houses on both sides of the paper shop only have some black ash on the walls.

In other words, only the paper tie shop had a fire.

With this level of fire, burning a few people to death is already up to the sky, how can it be possible to burn forty-nine people to death?

"Ask the proprietress again!" I groaned.

The proprietress shouldn't have to talk nonsense, let alone lie to me, there should have been some other things that happened in the fire, and I didn't ask clearly.

Jiang Ling nodded, and we returned to the funeral supplies store again.

"What's wrong again?"

The proprietress asked me while knocking on the melon seeds.

I hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Boss, I want to know how those forty-nine old men died?" Are they really all burned? ”

The proprietress put down the melon seeds, clapped her hands, shook off the pieces, and then said, "It can be regarded as burning." ”

"Can it be counted?"

I was puzzled, burn to death, burn to death, why can it be counted?

"Some of the forty-nine people went to fight the fire, and some went to join in the fun, but as long as the people who were close to the alley that night, without exception, came back, they suffered extensive burns all over their bodies, and no one even suffered until the next day, and the forty-nine people died."

The proprietress spoke unhurriedly.

It's also a shame that the proprietress is in the dead man's business, so she said this without changing her face.

Jiang Ling and I were both shocked.

This is obviously an encounter with an evil cult!!

Otherwise, there is no way to explain it.

"Boss, according to what you say, those who died were not actually burned to death by the real fire, but died of burns on their bodies after leaving the paper shop?" I spoke.

The proprietress looked as usual, and she said: "That's pretty much it, no, all of this is also caused by that unlucky guy, this broom star, who was close to him, who was unlucky, who was close to him, who had an accident at home, this time, he died and died, and he had to affect us, it's really hateful!" ”

Although the proprietress threw this black pot on my senior brother's body, which made me a little uncomfortable, I couldn't refute it.

"Have you found the bones of the shopkeeper?" I asked again.

The proprietress sneered, "The fire that day was so big, everyone was burned to ashes, where are the bones!" ”

Hope rose again in my heart.

As long as the bones are not found, it is unknown whether the senior brother is dead or not.

I believe that with my brother's ability, it is impossible for a fire to burn her.

"Thank you hostess."

Before leaving, I thanked the hostess.

Just as Jiang Ling and I were about to leave, I only heard the proprietress muttering faintly.

"The old four heads really have the blessing of the Bodhisattva, and the people who went there are all dead, and he is the only one who ......"

I listened to the words of the hostess.

It seems that there is one more person who survived!

I quickly turned around and said, "Someone survived!?" ”

The proprietress was startled by my voice, and her body trembled.

I only heard her say: "Young man, you roared and scared my and pee." ”

"Boss, you just said someone survived?"

I hurriedly walked up to the proprietress and asked.

At present, it is unknown why the paper shop caught fire, whether the senior brother died, and how the forty-nine people died, although the proprietress in front of him knows a lot, but after all, not as much as the person concerned.

If I can find the one who survived, maybe I could find something.

"Hey, I'm not sure if the old four is dead, his injuries are relatively light, and he seems to have hope of life." The proprietress said.

"Boss, do you know where he is? I'm going to see him now! I said.

"Young man, you can't look at him now, after he was injured, he was taken to Hangzhou by his family." The proprietress said.

I raised an eyebrow.

Hangtown?

Immediately, I said, "Does the proprietress know his specific location?" ”

"I don't know about this, I just remember that the son of the fourth head bought a house in the West Lake District of Hangzhou, and his son is very rich, has a granddaughter, and is in high school." The proprietress said.

This scope is still too wide, and there are many rich people in Hangzhou.

"What is this uncle's real name?" I asked.

"I don't know, we all call him the old four." The proprietress said.

It seems that it is a little difficult to find this survivor, anyway, I don't think that I can find the old man in Hangzhou with this bit of news.

But at this time, Jiang Ling next to me pulled me, and she said, "Chen Nian, leave the matter of finding someone to me." ”

My eyes lit up.

Just because I can't find it doesn't mean that others can't find it, the Jiang family's power in the Xuanmen-level and secular world must be not small, as can be seen from Jiang Ling's group of servants every time he goes out, and luxury cars are like clouds! Maybe Jiang Ling can really find it.

"Okay, please." I said.

At this moment, the proprietress of the funeral supply store looked at me suspiciously and asked, "Young man, who are you and why are you so interested in this matter?" ”

"I am from Lucun under the county seat, and I studied in the county seat when I was a child, and of course I am concerned about such a big thing happening in the county."

I smiled back.

"Shikamura! You're from Deer Village! The proprietress exclaimed.

"yes, what's wrong......"

I was stunned, and her violent reaction made me a little wrong.

Lucun is just an insignificant small village under the county seat, and there are at least a dozen such villages under the county seat.

"Didn't they say that your village had changed? God's retribution will fall on the people of your village! Is it true? The hostess looked at me in horror.

Because of the proprietress words, my heart instantly lifted.

Could it be that something happened to Lucun?

Although the uncle is missing, the grave of my parents has also been filled, and the home in Lucun no longer looks like a home, but in the end, Lucun is still my roots.

"Boss, I'll go first!"

I don't have time to be long-winded, my heart has been hooked to Lucun now, and I just want to go back to Lucun now to see what happened!

Since Senior Brother Jiang is not here, I don't think Jiang Ling needs to be with me anymore, after leaving the funeral supplies store, I said frankly to Jiang Ling: "If you don't go back, don't go to Lucun." ”

Jiang Ling shook his head and replied, "I want to go with you." ”

I actually don't really want Jiang Ling to go with me, or rather, I don't want people from the metaphysical world to go to Lucun.

But I didn't want to refuse Jiang Ling.

After all, other people's eyes have been wasted for half a year because of me.

"Okay, let's take the bus."

Finally, I replied to Jiang Ling.

I have no way to refuse Jiang Ling, but those servants of her Jiang family, I will not take them to Lucun.

Jiang Ling didn't say much, we got on the country bus and headed to Lucun.

I haven't been back for half a year, and I can't calm down along the way.

After getting off the bus on the road outside Lu Village, I led Jiang Ling into the village.

But the moment I stepped into the village.

I was stupid.

This...... Is this still my deer village?

Everywhere you look, there is desolation.

All around was lifeless, and the sky was gray and dirty.

The green hills outside the village have turned yellow, and the vegetation in the village has withered.

There's no life at all!

"Chen, this is Deer Village?" Jiang Ling asked me.

I furrowed my brows and didn't answer Jiang Ling's words.

I can't believe that this village in front of me is where I have lived for almost twenty years.

Those who don't know think they've come to a mass grave!

At this moment, I saw an acquaintance.

She is an aunt at the end of Lucun Village, surnamed Zhang, I went to her house to play when I was a child, and I knew her.

"Aunt Zhang!" I trotted up to her and asked anxiously, "How did the village come to be like this!?" What happened! ”

The feng shui pattern of our deer village is neither good nor bad, it is mediocre, it is impossible for this drastic change at all, and so far, I can't see why the surrounding environment has become like this.

Is it really as the proprietress said, retribution is coming? Is this God's punishment?

But the people of our Lu Village are all unpretentious, simple and kind, why should there be retribution?

Even if God has a punishment, it shouldn't come to us!

Aunt Zhang saw me, she looked at me strangely, and then asked me uncertainly, "Are you the eldest child of the Chen family?" ”

"It's me!" I hurriedly replied.

However, at this moment, Aunt Zhang's face changed instantly.

It's all over the place!

She threw the hoe in her hand at me, only to hear her say, "Give back my son's life!" Let your uncle return my son's life! I want Chen Daoyan to pay for his life! ”
