Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Man with the Sword
I didn't expect the second uncle to know about the Burial Gu Hall, because grandma has kept these things a secret all her life, and the second uncle himself said that grandma never told them these things.
Thinking about it this way, I suspect that the second uncle has been hiding from me, and in fact he is also a person who is proficient in spells.
So I began to ask the second uncle on the phone, and I used it to be a scoundrel, but I found that the second uncle didn't seem to understand anything except the words "burial Gu Hall" and "soft gold spine".
In the end, under my strong questioning, the second uncle confessed that his daughter, my second sister, had a strange disease, and the second uncle searched everywhere for this.
In the end, the second uncle still got the guidance of a master, saying that this thing called soft gold spine could save the second sister's life.
I told the second uncle that there are many, many burial halls, and if you don't tell me exactly which one you want to go to, I guess I won't be able to find the soft gold spine in my life.
The second uncle said that he didn't know, that's what the master said, and he also asked many times where this burial hall was, and the master just kept shaking his head, and the old face was full of heavenly secrets that could not be revealed.
After hanging up the phone, I found that Xiao Yao was gone, I was obviously blocking the door to call, but she still disappeared under my nose.
This also makes me more convinced that Xiao Yao is a female ghost.
The next day, I slept at home for a whole day, and I planned to set off directly to the bridge forest on the side of the village mountain after the night vigil, because I remember Xiao Yao saying that there was a burial hall there.
In the end, everything was peaceful, because I slept all day, I was not sleepy at all, and I just held the hemp rope and watched and saw the dawn.
At the same time as the rooster crowed, I walked out of the compound, locked the courtyard gate, and headed straight to the south.
It was just after five o'clock in the morning, and there was no one on the main road outside the village, and as I walked, I heard a series of hurried footsteps behind me.
When I looked back, I was so shocked that my jaw couldn't close.
Because the person behind me who ran towards me from a distance was actually Ah Jin!
Ah Jin rushed in front of me, his hands on his knees and panting.
"Ah Jin! Who brought you here? ”
I'm very happy, Ah Jin and I have walked into Rentougou twice and experienced a lot of dangerous things, so now for me, Ah Jin is like a brother who has passed my life.
Ah Jin finally gasped for breath, and with an excited face, he took something out of his pocket and stretched it out in front of me.
It was a note that said—
Old man, Gangzi, Ah Jin, I'm Wu Yan.
I wanted to say goodbye to you, but when I came back, it was late, and I couldn't bother in the dead of night.
On the reverse side of the note is my address and my mobile phone number, if you come to Nanjing to play in the future, I will definitely treat you well.
Wu Yan left a word.
This is the note I left at the gate of Gangzi's house, and I was worried that they couldn't afford to buy a mobile phone, so I left the address, but I didn't expect them to find my hometown.
"Ah Jin, where are your brother and your father?"
Ah Jin carefully put the note into his pocket as a treasure, and said mysteriously: "They don't know." ”
"Huh? Are they at home? You came alone? ”
Ah Jin nodded proudly.
"How do you know that my hometown is here, you should ask your brother to call me before you come, so that I can pick you up, you usually don't go out of the door, what if you get lost?"
Ah Jin suddenly raised his index finger and gently placed it on his lips, making a silent gesture to me, "They don't know. ”
This shocked me even more, Ah Jin relied on a note with an address on it, hiding from his brother and father across hundreds of kilometers, and found me in his hometown?
"Little Ah Jin, don't lie to me, you honestly told me how you found me."
Ah Jin, who was covered with beads of sweat, opened his mouth and smiled brightly, smiling with incomparably innocent sunshine, almost melting my heart, "Ask, smell." ”
But every time I go out, I say hello to the security guard in the community, I know him very well, and he often tells me to tell him when I go out, so that he will come to our house every night to patrol the building.
In addition, there should be no one in the community who knows my whereabouts, presumably Ah Jin is asking about this security uncle.
I asked Ah Jin if I wanted to take a break, but Ah Jin asked me directly where I was going.
Ah Jin nodded very resolutely when she learned that I was going to the Funeral Hall, but I could tell that an imperceptible trace of fear flashed across her face.
But I really can't resist her, so I can say that Ah Jin is determined to follow me, and in the end, I said that Ah Jin is about to get angry, and I have no choice, so I can only take her to Cunzi Mountain.
There is a forest next to the east side of the mountain, which grows very dense and is usually inaccessible, and after going in and walking in for about half an hour, we came to a clearing, and in the middle of the clearing sat a small wooden house.
That should be the home of the one-eyed, one-armed man on credit.
When I first met the knife man, he said that I should go to his house, and I didn't forget it, but I never wanted to go, after all, this old man was very weird, and I didn't want to have any kind of intersection with him at all.
I asked Ah Jin to stand still and wait, and I came to the door of the wooden house alone.
The door was closed, and the curtains in the window were tightly covered, so I reached out and knocked on the door, and said respectfully: "Senior of the credit knife man, I am the grandson of Granny Hua's family." ”
I stood up straight and waited for a while, but no one answered me.
I looked back at Ah Jin, she had a strange expression, she was wrinkling her nose and smelling something.
"Is the senior of the knife man at home, I am Granny Hua and my grandson, you said that I would come to you."
I shouted again, but still no one responded to me, and then Ah Jin came behind me, and before I could speak, she raised her right leg and kicked the wooden door into the house!
Ah Jin has always listened to me! How could it be so reckless this time!
At the same time, a strong and pungent fishy smell mixed with strange acid poured out at once, and my eyes were full of tears when I pinched my nose, and even the mucous membranes of my respiratory tract were stinging.
Even so, I saw what was going on in the house.
The man with the knife on credit is dead.
The corpse was lying in the middle of the room, the only remaining leg and arm were missing, and there were two streaks of blood that had long dried up and turned dark red under the sunglasses on his face, and the only good eye must have been gouged out.
The reason why Ah Jin kicked the door before was probably because she smelled the smell of corpses in the house, and the power of her nose was simply too much beyond my imagination.
Suddenly, Ah Jin raised his hand and pointed, and I looked in the direction.
On the wooden floor next to the corpse of the man on credit, there was a square secret door, and the lock on the lock ring of the secret door was still fastened, but there were obviously many traces of being violently smashed around the keyhole.
The man on credit dug a cellar in the house?
Or did the Creditman build the house on top of an underground passage?
For a moment, thousands of strange ideas unscrupulously drilled into my mind, but in the end, only one stood firm.
This strange wooden house may have been built by the Knife Man in order to hide this entrance, if this is really the case, then this strange entrance will most likely be the burial hall we are looking for.
