"Grandma, I'm 60 out of 90 this year."

"Wow, I didn't expect us to find a centenarian casually." Zuo Xianghuan's expression was exaggerated.

"I can't get there, I can't get there." The old woman kept shaking her head.

Shi Su asked, "Grandma, what can't you do?" ”

"Grandma won't live that long."

Although she said that, the old grandmother's expression was still very calm, as if death was just a form for her.

Naturally, I shifted the subject: "Grandma, I heard that your village has a history of hundreds of years, is it true?" ”

"Hmm."

The old lady nodded firmly.

"Is the whole village surnamed Bai?"

"Wrong, wrong, all surnamed Meng."

The old woman's words made all three of us frown.

Zuo Xianghuan confirmed again: "Grandma, are you also surnamed Meng?" ”

"That's right, our people here, whether they are men or women, have the surname Meng."

Zuo Xianghuan listened and turned his head to look at me.

After a pause, I asked, "Grandma, if there is someone with a foreign surname who wants to live here, will you live here?" ”

As soon as she heard this, the old grandmother immediately waved her hand and shook her head: "No, no, no one can come." ”

Speaking of this, the old grandmother looked up at the sky again: "Doll, you go and take a few photos and go back, this place is not where you should come." ”

Zuo Xianghuan originally wanted to ask, but I stretched out my hand to stop him: "Grandma, then let's go take pictures." ”

Farewell to the old woman, we went around the village for a short time, and finally stood in front of one of the largest buildings in the village.

It is the only walled building in the village, and there is only one entrance and exit.

Interestingly, the seemingly old wooden door was open, and inside was an old man with gray hair sweeping the floor with a broom.

Zuo Xianghuan walked in and wanted to talk to the old man, but after asking two questions, the old man just waved his hand and shook his head, and then pointed to his ear, and we knew that he was already deaf.

The old building looked like an ancestral hall, and the old man did not prevent us from entering the ancestral hall, and still swept the floor by himself.

There is nothing unusual in the ancestral hall, and the ancestors of the Meng family are enshrined on it.

The only thing worth mentioning is that I found out that their ancestors claimed to be the descendants of the Qin general Meng Wu, and there was no more information about them.

Standing in the open space outside the ancestral hall, Zuo Xianghuan asked me beside me, "Master, there doesn't seem to be anything strange about this village." ”

"Hmm." My brow furrowed, "What I'm worried about now is that the client's purpose is not pure, so we will be very passive." ”

Zuo Xianghuan nodded, he thought for a while and said, "Master, otherwise, we will return this task, and I will pay the money for the default." ”

"It's not a question of whether the mission will retreat or not, as you said before, that Bai Lao's background is very huge, and after facing him, I will instinctively have a sense of threat. If we quit at this time, there is a high probability that we will be wiped on the neck by his men when we sleep at night. ”

Hearing me say this, Zuo Xianghuan couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"And I'm trying to figure out the key." As I spoke, I scratched my head, "My brain is a little messy now, I'll take a look at it first." ”

As I spoke, I reached out and picked up a dry branch from the ground, and scratched it on the dirt next to me.

Shi Suwen and Qin Niang walked over, one looking at me with clear eyes, as if there was only one person like me in the world, while the other frowned slightly, carefully looking at the information I had scribbled on the ground.

I saw a few seemingly unrelated messages on the ground, as follows:

1. A haunting old man, a martial arts master?

2. Wood factory homicide

3. The surname of the village is Meng, and the descendants of Mengwu are descendants

4. The grandmother advised her to leave, and she seemed to know that her life was short?

5. Bai Lao's surname is Meng, or is his surname Bai?

6. The village is very ordinary, and it is not as weird as stated in the mission content

While I was painting, I suddenly raised my head and asked Shi Su, "Crazy, cough cough, division, have you ever seen a grave when you were walking around the village?" ”

"Graves?"

Shi Suwen was stunned for a moment, she immediately stood up and glanced around the village: "Shake your head, you can't see it." ”

I suddenly got up and said to the three of them, "There is nothing to see on the surface of this village, let's go and see the grave first." ”

However, the strange thing is that there is a large circle around the village, and even with Zuo Xianghuan's high-powered telescope, he can't find a single grave.

At this time, we once again stood at the entrance of the village.

"Master, this is too evil, there is not even a grave in the huge village."

Indeed, in general, in secluded mountain villages, relatives are buried after death, and most of the graves are near the village.

But it is indeed strange that there is not a single grave in this big circle.

Shi Suwen first glanced at the sunset, which was already standing on the top of the opposite peak, and then looked at his watch: "It's not early, it is estimated that the sun will set in another thirty minutes, how are we going to solve it now?" ”

I looked up and looked around, frowned, and said, "There's no way, since we haven't found anything on the surface, let's drive out of here first, or at least a little further away from the village." ”

"But Master, if I want to spend the night in the mountains, I don't have a tent with me."

"I brought one." As I spoke, I turned my head to look at Shi Su and asked.

The latter smiled: "I also brought one." ”

"Can you sleep two people?"

"If it's Qinniang, it's not a problem." Shi Suwen nodded.

With that, I turned around and walked towards the car: "Let's go, we can't joke with our lives no matter what." ”

As the Mercedes-Benz van slowly drove away, the grandmother who had spoken to us slowly emerged from behind a rock at the entrance of the village and slowly walked towards her hut.

Naturally, I saw her, and my doubts about her naturally deepened.

There must be something quirky about this village, it's just that time is in a hurry, and we can only wait for tomorrow.

We weren't too far from the small mountain village, but we drove off the road, got into the bushes, and camped by a small stream.

The four of them sat down around the fire, and Qin Niang sat beside me without saying a word from beginning to end, and followed me closely wherever I went.

Seeing that Qinniang was so sticky to me, Shi Suwen couldn't help but let out a heartfelt admiration: "You two have a really good relationship." ”

"That's a must."

I tore off a small piece of bread and handed it to Qin Niang's lips with a lot of crumbs: "Come, open your mouth." ”

Qin Niang obediently put the noodles in her mouth, and her mouth opened a little wide, so that my fingers were a little bit in.

After that, while chewing the bread, I reached out and gently licked my fingers with the breadcrumbs as I stood.

Shi Su asked himself to turn his head, out of sight, and his heart was pure.

Zuo Xianghuan has been bowing his head to eat bread and sausages.

At the end, Qin Niang reached out and patted her lower abdomen gently, and said calmly to me: "It's full." ”

Pursing my lips and smiling, I began to eat myself.

"Husband, I'm sleepy."

Qinniang's sleep time is still quite fixed, and she rarely moves at night, and she will sleep at a certain time.

Originally, I wanted Shi Suwen and Qinniang to sleep in a tent, but Shi Suwen's tent was still too small. Moreover, I finally came out with Qin Niang, although I held down the shadow guard and kept staring, but the empress was not there, and they were just paying attention to us from afar.

So I discussed it with Shi Suwen and Zuo Xianghuan, and Qin Niang and I slept in the car, and they still slept in the tent.

Seeing me leading Qinniang into the car, Zuo Xianghuan suddenly said: "Master, when you are at night, the movement is a little smaller, by the way, don't forget to pull the handbrake, so that the car will not shake too much." ”

"Get out! Do you think I'm as filthy as you are? ”

I adjusted the car seat to the best condition, and then let Qin Niang lie down gently, took out a blanket from the backpack, and covered Qin Niang's body.

In fact, from the beginning to the present, Qin Niang and I have known each other for less than a year, but we feel like decades or even hundreds of years have passed with each other.

Qinniang has also changed from a thousand-year-old female corpse to an ordinary girl who breathes, thinks, and knows love and hatred.

In the past, when she slept, as long as she lay down, she could keep one movement for a few days, just like someone was dead, but now it is different, when she is asleep, she occasionally turns over, and the most unbearable thing for me to laugh at is to kick the quilt like a child.

Because I was worried that Qinniang would catch a cold, I basically didn't fall into a deep sleep, and I would always wake up and cover her with a quilt.

After covering Qin Niang with the blanket, I bowed my head, kissed Qin Niang's smooth forehead, and said softly, "Sleep." ”

After coaxing Qin Niang to sleep, I got out of the car.

Zuo Xiang smiled and said, "Master, you are fast enough, half an hour has not yet arrived, hey, Master, Master, the gentleman doesn't move his mouth, oops!" ”

Seeing that I pressed Zuo Xianghuan to the ground and beat him, Shi Su on the side couldn't help but purse his lips and smile when he saw it.

After enough fun, I sat down by the fire and said to the two of them: "From the appearance, there seems to be nothing special about the village, but I don't know why, I always have one, well, how to say it"
