Chapter 113: Soul Hunting (1)

The Qiu family's old house had already been divided, and in order to return to the village, they bought the land back and moved the old man's household registration back.

Jiang Mi asked a few villagers to find the Qiu family, the quaint blue brick house is presented in front of him, the hollow-shaped building, and a large courtyard, this is the old house of the Qiu family, the ancestor is also a landlord, and the family is rich.

Although the Qiu family's land was taken back, no one in the village has settled down over the years, and the house has not been demolished and has been preserved until now.

After they came back, they found someone to repair it, and now it looks quaint and atmospheric, otherwise even if it was originally built, it would be overgrown with weeds and tattered piles after decades.

Jiang Mi stood at the door of the autumn mansion, a handsome, dusty young man happened to come out of the door from the next door, his eyes were facing each other, he quickly looked away, and his expression was flat.

Jiang Mi suddenly stopped him: "Hello, is this the Qiu Mansion?" ”

The young man frowned and said coldly, "Yes." ”

"Thanks, what's your name?"

"Xiao Yu, why are you standing at the door and not coming in, come here!" Qiu Shu opened the door and saw her and called out to her.

Jiang Mi turned around, and the boy had already gone away.

Qiu Shu: "Why are you still stunned, come in, Dad didn't have time to pick you up this time, are you okay along the way?" ”

"It's good." Jiang Mi looked at the young man's back again and walked into the autumn house.

Qiushu: "What are you looking at?" ”

Jiang Mi did not shy away from it: "Who is he?" ”

"I heard that it is a relative of the family next door, called Chu Yao, I don't know about the others, he doesn't come out much, he doesn't like to deal with people, right...... Why do you ask this? ”

"Just ask."

"You're in college, you want to fall in love, and your family doesn't object to it, but you can't ...... too casually"

Jiang Mi stopped him from continuing: "My father, I really just ask casually. ”

"Okay, come with me to meet your grandfather, now the countryside is not allowed to be buried, I finally let your grandfather stay at home for a few more days, and he will be sent to the crematorium tomorrow." As he spoke, his voice was a little muffled.

Jiang Mi followed him to the hall, which was already full of people, most of them were relatives at home, and some were professional funeral people, there were many burial steps in the village, and there was no knowledgeable guide, so I really didn't know how to do it.

Old Man Qiu was lying in the ice coffin, his expression was peaceful, he had been dead for a few days, and no one would cry anymore, sometimes the corpse did not necessarily represent fear, but also longing and sadness.

"Xiao Yu is here, hurry up and burn some paper for your grandfather."

"Xiao Yu, come here."

The relatives greeted him, and Jiang Mi walked to the ice coffin, a brazier in front of him, and a pile of yellow paper ashes had been burned next to it.

The corpse should be kept at home for seven days, and the offspring should keep burning yellow paper here, and this yellow paper is not just put in casually, it needs to be folded into an angular shape, and then put into a brazier to burn.

Jiang Mi followed those relatives to fold some and put them in the brazier.

In fact, the customs of this place are a bit patriarchal, and in the past, only boys could burn paper money, but the old man Qiu has a son in Qiushu, and Qiushu only has a daughter in Qiushu, who does she not burn?

These relatives sitting here are all the brothers of Old Man Qiu, and their family is huge and there are many people.

According to the custom here, even if those cousins and cousins are allowed to burn paper money, they will not let Qiu Yu burn one, but Old Man Qiu does not have these patriarchal ideas, so he wants his own granddaughter to burn it for him.

Qiu Shu also thinks so, those relatives who don't usually move around often burn paper money, but the old man's granddaughter doesn't burn, what is this?

After a while, Qiu Shu walked up to her: "You've worked hard all the way, go and rest for a while." ”

Jiang Mi didn't refuse, it was really embarrassing to sit here, relatives and friends insisted on talking to her awkwardly, and they didn't know how to answer.

There is a window in the room where Jiang Mi is resting, facing the window next door, looking up, the young man in white is sitting in front of the canvas, his slender fingers holding the paintbrush, like a fairy in the painting, the tip of his nose rubs a little paint, and the bright orange pulls him into reality, looking a little more vivid.

Jiang Mi hooked his lips, supported the windowsill with his hand, and shouted: "Little brother!" ”

Chu Yao asked, looked up at her, turned his eyes back, and immersed himself in the canvas again.

Jiang Mi was not angry, just opened the window, lay on the bed and slept, and fell asleep unconsciously.

But Chu Yao looked at the window next door again, and frowned when he saw Jiang Mi sleeping with the window open, the quilt was not covered, what should he do if he caught a cold, no, why did he think so much?

Shaking his head, he continued to paint.

The pen unconsciously drew a girl standing in front of the quaint door, her eyes were clear, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and her smile was a little wanton and ridiculous.

Chu Yao put away his pen, was stunned, and finally put the painting away.

It was already completely dark, and the girl in the opposite window had already left the room.

Jiang Mi slept and was full of energy, so he got up and continued to burn paper for the old man, so that he could be a rich man below.

As soon as she returned to China, the system task was released, and it must have been something that Qian Yu had done, thinking of this, she began to search the Internet for some strange things that had happened in the past two days.

In fact, there are a lot of strange things, why a pig farm hundreds of sows suddenly howled overnight, the women of the whole village actually came to menstruation on the same day, a gang spent 200,000 to make 100,000 counterfeit money, and was later caught......

None of this was what she wanted, and suddenly she saw a headline: Last night, all the people in our next village died!!

Jiang Mi just wanted to click in to see the auspicious situation, but as soon as he refreshed it, this news was gone, and no matter how he searched it later, he couldn't find the slightest news about this matter.

"System, can you find out what's going on?"

[Yes.] 】

After burying Old Man Qiu, Jiang Mi took the bus to Wanshui Village under the pretext of being distracted.

Regarding the traces of Qianyu, he has a way to hide, and the system can't find it, but what he has done, the system can still find it.

There is only one bus to Dayan Township, where Wanshui Village is located, and Jiang Mi can only watch the bus stop to pick up some people waiting along the road.

The car staggered to a halt again, and it was a young man with a sketchpad on his back, the sun pouring on his porcelain-white skin, dazzling, and his black hair fluttering mischievously on his forehead.

He frowned when he saw the people slowly passing through the car, but finally got into the car.

There were several elderly women in the car, and when they saw the boy, they approached him, just as they were about to take advantage of the crowd to rub in.

The boy was pulled away by a force and sat down in a chair, with a young girl standing in front of him.
