Listening to him tell such a long story, Xiaobao paid attention to the mysterious old man he said.

According to Wang Taoge, the old man was the most mysterious of the whole thing, not only did he have advanced Taoism, but he also used a thumb-sized red wooden sword and a green charm.

The only clue to the murderer is the black button with gold edges, and a bold idea was born in Xiaobao's brain: Could it be that the old man is the real murderer who slaughtered the entire village of Xini Village? Could he be the murderer of my parents!

Xiaobao suddenly stood up from the ground, and asked Wang Tao with a pale face if he knew what the old man's surname was.

Wang Tao didn't seem to notice Xiaobao's strange appearance, and sighed lightly: "Why are you this doll stupid?" I want to know who that old man is, and I've already looked for him to take revenge! ”

After speaking, Wuzi sighed again, his mood was not very good, he picked up a few dry firewood and threw them into the brazier, looking at the raging flames and being stunned.

Seeing this, Xiaobao was also helpless to sit back in his place, but his hands were clenched tightly, and he vowed in his heart that he would catch the old man and avenge his parents and the whole village.

Wang Tao yawned listlessly, saying that he was a little sleepy and wanted to go back to rest first.

Xiaobao nodded at him, and he walked lazily to the earthen kang.

After he left, Xiaobao was not interested in staying in the hall, so he simply went back to his cabin.

Returning to the hut in a daze, Xiaobao first sat at the small wooden table for a while, and recalled what Wang Tao had just said, for fear of missing an important detail about the murderer.

He was still thinking about being stunned, but when he looked down at the tabletop, he actually found a crumpled note pressed under the ceramic kettle.

This is?

Xiaobao was stunned for a moment, then took out the note from under the kettle, handed it to his eyes and took a closer look, only to see that only a few words were written on it: Be careful of the people around you!

What does that mean?

And who left the note?

Could it be that when I was talking to Brother Wang Tao in the hall just now, someone once entered my room?

Oh my! This person can calmly advance and retreat under our noses without knowing it!

Xiaobao didn't dare to think about it, but felt goosebumps all over his body, and said in his heart: What is the purpose of the person who left the note? If he wanted to be unfavorable to us, it is estimated that Brother Wang Tao and I would have been in different places a long time ago!

I don't know if I've been nervous lately, Xiaobao suddenly heard an extremely slight sound from outside the door.

Worst! Could it be that the person who left the note is still in the yard?

Xiaobao didn't know where to get the courage, jumped off his seat and hurried into the courtyard.

The courtyard was extremely silent, and the originally dim sky was obviously brighter than before because of the dawn, so that the things around it seemed very clear in Xiaobao's eyes.

Although the surroundings are still a little deserted, everything is as usual, and it seems that no one has been here at all.

"Did I really hear me wrong?"

Xiao Bao frowned, and began to doubt his judgment, and it was at this moment that a wave of sleepiness hit him, which made him reluctantly return to the hut again.

returned to his small plank bed and lay down, but Xiaobao suddenly felt that he was refreshed, and the sleepiness just now disappeared without a trace.

Turning over, his eyes fell on the paper window, and his thoughts began to wander again: counting today's note, this is the second time he has received a note.

I remember the first time I got the note, I still couldn't read a few words, and that time I waited for Grandma Sun to come back to show it, but at that time, Grandma Sun didn't seem to say the content of the note, and she threw the note in a kerosene lamp and burned it.

Could it be that the contents of the note were exactly the same as this one?

Well?

As soon as he thought of the contents of the note, Xiaobao suddenly shuddered: Be careful of the people around you!

Does that mean that there is something wrong with the people around me?

Xiaobao sat up from the bed and wiped a cold sweat lightly on his forehead, he just cared about who left the note, but ignored the content of the note.

If the contents of the note are true, who is it that I should be careful to guard against?

There are only Xiaomei and Brother Wang Tao around me at present, can it be said that one of the two of them will be unfavorable to me?

Xiaomei is the same age as herself, and she is still a girl, she can't pose a threat at all, on the other hand, Brother Wang Tao is a little more suspicious, because he has been crazy before, and .......

At this moment, Xiaobao's thinking in his mind was very active, and after a little analysis, he came to a conclusion: If there is a problem, only Brother Wang Tao is left.

I remember the story he told in the hall just now, saying that he had died once when he was young, and was later revived by Ma Laohan's spell.

If you think about it, what he said seems to be very strange!

Everyone is dead, and Ma Laohan, a bad old man who is over half a hundred years old, can be saved by a little spell?

And the old man also said that Brother Wang Tao must wear a spirit talisman for fourteen years to be safe, but why haven't I seen him wear a spirit talisman?

Besides, Brother Wang Tao said that after he was knocked off the cliff by the old man, didn't he fall into the pool water, he floated in the water for so long before he was rescued, wasn't the spirit rune soaked up?

The more Xiaobao analyzed, the more he felt that there was something wrong with Brother Wang Tao, and there was a faint feeling of unsteadiness in his heart: He is now under the same roof with us, what if he is in trouble again?

I'm injured in my left shoulder now, it's unknown whether I can beat him, Xiaomei, a weak girl, is definitely not his opponent, maybe we will both be killed by this honest-looking Brother Wang Tao.

Thinking that Xiaomei would be affected by this, Xiaobao only felt that blood was rushing to his brain, his eyes were subconsciously round, and he gritted his teeth and muttered: "No!" No one can hurt Xiaomei! No one! Whoever wants to hurt Xiaomei, I will definitely kill him with my own hands! ”

Although it is just a guess, Xiaobao has suddenly become hideous, looking particularly angry, in his heart Xiaomei is a very important person, if anyone dares to hurt Xiaomei, he will not hesitate to fight for his life to protect Xiaomei.

This subtle change, I'm afraid that even he didn't notice it, turned over, jumped out of bed, dragged an injured arm, and went straight to the room where Wang Tao was.

Before entering the house, Xiaobao had already heard Wang Tao's earth-shattering snoring, this thick voice made Xiaobao pause, the anger in his mind just now weakened a little, and reason returned to his mind again.

I don't know if it's because I'm too careless, but I saw that the door of the room where Wang Tao was was not closed tightly.

Xiaobao walked in without much effort, only to see him curled up in the corner of the kang with his clothes, muttering in his dreams, "Old Uncle Zhang.... Don't worry, I will... Will save you back...."
