Chapter 234: The Old Man
"Third uncle, grandpa, what are they talking about, why can't I understand a word?"
Li Ergou couldn't help the curiosity in his heart and asked the third uncle.
The fat man who had been standing next to him also turned his head curiously, wanting to see how the third uncle would explain.
"Kid, where are there so many problems, just take a good look."
But what is puzzling is that the third uncle not only didn't say anything, but also trained Li Ergou.
"Guys, please keep digging."
After listening to Grandpa's answer, Grandpa clenched his fists at the construction team members and said.
The construction team members hesitated for a moment before jumping into the pit, waving their shovels and continuing to dig.
At this time, Li Ergou and the fat man both saw that something was wrong with the situation, especially the fat man, and frowned directly.
If you just repair the ancestral hall, you don't need to dig such a big and deep pit at all.
Unless, there's something buried underneath.
"Brother Ergou, is there something buried underneath this?" The fat man wondered.
Li Ergou shook his head and said, "I don't know, it should be!" ”
He wanted to ask the third uncle, but when he thought of the third uncle's temper, he couldn't help it.
The fat man said before that the Liu ancestral hall is the feng shui eye of the entire Wolong Village.
Now the grandfather not only asked people to dig down, but also said that twenty years have passed, and he will dig things out and take a look.
Could it be that the grandfather asked someone to repair the ancestral hall is fake, and the real purpose is to dig up the things in the eyes of Feng Shui?
Twenty years ago, why twenty years ago?
Because of the disappearance of his father, Li Ergou is too sensitive to this number.
Could it be ...... Could it be that the things buried in the eyes of Feng Shui are related to the strange incident in Fengyuan Building twenty years ago?
As soon as he thought of this possibility, Li Ergou was shocked into a cold sweat.
It's no wonder that for so many years, whether it is grandfather, third uncle, or mother, they have not paid much attention to the disappearance of their father.
Especially the third uncle, after knowing that Li Ergou was investigating the matter of Fengyuan Building, not only did not help, but obstructed it in various ways.
There must be some ulterior secret!
Li Ergou was thinking like this, when he suddenly heard a "clang", as if the shovel had touched something.
The construction team first paused for a moment, and then began to clean up in all directions.
It didn't take long for them to clear out a stone monument carved with the head of the mantle, and then the workers were startled and climbed up from the pit.
"Uncle, we can't do your job!"
The construction captain said to the grandfather, his face was a little unpleasant.
These workers are not from Wolong Village, they have been working with soil all year round, and the most taboo thing is to dig up things related to dead people.
Now half of the stone tablet was suddenly dug up, and it was in the ancestral hall again, and a group of talking snakes had been dug up before, and these workers felt unlucky.
Under the leadership of the construction captain, everyone retreated.
"It's okay, it's just a stone tablet, we buried it with our own hands twenty years ago, you can just dig it, it's really not good, I'll give you double the salary." Grandpa persuaded.
Hearing the words of the eldest grandfather, Li Ergou's eyes immediately froze, and some kind of terrible conjecture suddenly appeared in his heart.
"Well, then!"
Hearing that he could get twice the salary, the construction captain hesitated for a moment, but nodded and agreed, and then began to beckon the workers to continue digging.
It didn't take long for the stele to be completely cleaned out.
When Li Ergou looked over, he was immediately taken aback.
The stele is about two meters high and eighty centimeters long, and underneath it is a huge stone turtle that carries the stele on its back.
And, there are four dragon dances in relief on both sides of the stele, the dragon's tail is coiled to the top, the dragon's head stretches out to the four corners, and the surrounding is decorated with line carved cloud patterns, and the two sides are embossed with cloud crane patterns.
The most terrifying thing is that the stone turtle is bleeding all over its body, and it is extremely terrifying!
"Unexpectedly, under this small Liu ancestral hall, there is actually a turtle monument buried." As soon as the stele appeared, the fat man couldn't help but sigh.
"Turtle Monument, what's that?" Li Ergou was puzzled.
He has never seen this kind of stele since he was a child, why did the grandfather bury the turtle stele under the ancestral hall?
Moreover, looking at the appearance of the grandfather and the third uncle, it seems that he has known about this matter for a long time.
Li Ergou felt that the dragon head monument must be related to his father's disappearance, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.
"Brother Ergou, in feng shui, the dragon head tablet is used to suppress evil spirits most of the time, but I don't understand, why did your grandfather bury it in the feng shui eyes of Wolong Village." The fat man explained.
After saying that, he circled around the pit, and said as he walked, "Strange, really strange!" ”
Li Ergou was puzzled, when he saw the fat man suddenly stop, and then patted his head and said, "By the way, why didn't I think of this?" ”
"What's wrong, fat man?" Li Ergou said curiously.
The fat man is the descendant of the Heavenly Master's Dao, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to crack the matter of burying the turtle stele in the eye of feng shui.
However, as soon as the fat man was about to speak, he was stopped by the third uncle: "Fat man, take care of your mouth, you don't have to worry about things that shouldn't be in your hands." ”
"Surnamed Li, don't go too far, if it weren't for the fact that you are the third uncle of Ergou, I would have shot at you."
Although the fat man is very arrogant on weekdays, he also has his own arrogance, and when the third uncle said this in public, he was immediately unhappy.
"You can try!"
However, the third uncle is not a vegetarian either, he glared at the fat man and did not back down.
"Alright, you both don't have to say a few words."
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Li Ergou hurriedly stepped forward and blocked between them.
"Third uncle, what is the matter with you, can you tell me? Don't always hide it from me, I'm not a kid anymore, I have the right to know the truth. ”
Li Ergou first said to the third uncle, and then turned to the fat man and said: "Fat man, forget it, just give me a face, this is an ancestral hall, it is not suitable to do it here." ”
Hearing what he said, the third uncle and the fat man calmed down, but they both turned their heads to the side, and they didn't like each other.
Seeing this, Li Ergou quickly pulled the fat man aside and asked him to go home first, and then return to the third uncle.
"Third uncle, I know you're doing it for my good, but you can't hide everything from me, right?" Li Ergou said to the third uncle.
Recently, the third uncle has become extremely mysterious, no matter what Li Ergou asks him, he will always be prevaricated.
Speaking from the heart, Li Ergou was also a little angry.
The fat man and Li Ergou are not related, but even so, he will share something with Li Ergou, but what about the third uncle? Isn't it even as good as an outsider?
"Ergou, do you believe the third uncle?"
The third uncle didn't answer directly, but looked into Li Ergou's eyes and asked.
Li Ergou nodded.
