"I think your grandfather's notes and this bead are leading us to a place to find the answer, and if we find out where this place is, then maybe we can find all the truth." I lifted the black bead up again and put it to my eye, and as I looked at it, I said, and the mountains inside seemed to be much clearer.

Qi Tianyang said, "That's right. Now, though......, we have one more important thing to do, though. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Go find Ah Nian and her father."

"What are you looking for them?" As soon as I heard Ah Nian's name, I didn't have a good feeling.

Qi Tianyang said with a calm face, "You'll know soon." ”

This night, I didn't sleep very well in Qi Tianyang's arms, I had one nightmare after another, and I kept waking up.

Every time, Qi Tianyang hummed the nameless tune in a low voice, gently patting my shoulder to coax me to continue sleeping.

I don't know how long it took, but after waking up again, I found that it was dawn, so I never slept again, got up and rushed to the barefoot old man's house with Qi Tianyang.

The barefoot old man lived in a small town about dozens of kilometers away from Qi Tian's family, and it took us more than two hours to get there by bus.

Qi Tianyang still holds a black umbrella to shade the sun, but fortunately, in the countryside, there are not many pedestrians on the road, and no one looks at us.

Qi Tianyang told me that the barefoot old man loves money like his life, and now he told me that the barefoot old man is not only that, but also a miser who saves to an exaggerated extent.

The money he earned, except for three meals a day and necessary expenses, he basically saved all of it, and he was reluctant to spend a penny, and even Ah Nian usually had to use pocket money, so he had to earn it by himself.

Although Qi Tianyang was giving me vaccinations all the way, I was still taken aback when I saw the house of the barefoot old man's family!

The wall of the loess embryo, I don't know what year it was built, because it has been in disrepair for a long time, it is a little tilted, because I am afraid that the house will fall, and it is supported by a few pieces of wood next to it, although the roof is covered with green tiles, but there is thatch under the tiles, obviously it is a thatched roof that has been used for many years, and finally the thatched roof can not shelter from the wind and rain, so I have to put on the tiles.

Not to mention that there is no second house of this kind in this village, even in the whole of China, except in the extremely poor mountainous areas, it is difficult to see such a simple house again.

Where is this shabby, it is simply a dilapidated house!

Qi Tianyang patted the two door panels that couldn't fit together, and soon, someone came to open the door, only to see that the barefoot old man didn't even wear shoes at home, standing barefoot on the muddy ground, stretching out a head to look at the two of us, as soon as he saw Qi Tianyang knocking on the door, he immediately smiled on his face.

"Oh, it's from God! Come in, come in! ”

I glanced at Qi Tianyang, and I didn't dare to go in.

Qi Tianyang took my hand, "It's okay, the barefoot uncle is not an outsider." ”

I sneered in my heart, huh! He and his daughter, aren't they bad people? Ah Nian has tried his best to harm me countless times, and he is not a bad person?

But in front of the barefoot old man who had never torn his face with us, I naturally wouldn't say this kind of thing to my face, so I had to endure the resentment in my heart and walked in with Qi Tianyang.

Because it is the rainy season in summer, the floor of this mud house is wet and has a musty smell.

This room is divided into three rooms, a large hall house, except for a dilapidated table of eight immortals, four long benches, there is almost no furniture, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a house with four walls, and it is also an earthen wall!

The hall is connected to a room on the left and a on the right, which should be the bedroom of the two of them.

I took a few careful glances to make sure that Ah Nian was not at home, so I felt more comfortable.

We were about to sit down on the bench for a while, but the barefoot old man turned around and led us inside.

And Qi Tianyang obediently followed him inside, and I had to quickly follow him when I saw this.

Until I stepped into the barefoot old man's room, I thought he was nothing more than a stingy and perverted sinister old man, who used to cheat all kinds of people out of their money by abducting and abducting them on weekdays.

But when I got to his room, I realized that he did have two brushes.

In the small room, there are a variety of utensils hanging on the wall, such as peach wood branches, peach wood swords, swords worn by the five emperors, various colors of rune paper, dog teeth, ox horns, Luban rulers, compasses, and even a bag of glutinous rice in the corner.

On a quaint wooden bed, a coarse cloth mosquito net is hung with a bamboo pole, and there are many shadows in the mosquito net, as if something is put in it, but because the mosquito net is not a gauze net, it is very thick, and it is impossible to see what is inside.

The barefoot old man said to Qi Tian, "Uncle doesn't have any skills, so I only found this for the time being." ”

Qi Tianyang's face had changed, and he walked to the mosquito net step by step, and I caught a glimpse of his hands trembling slightly.

I vaguely guessed that the things in the mosquito net were by no means a good thing, but I wasn't sure if there was any danger behind that layer of tulle, so I could only shout at Qi Tianyang, "Qi Tianyang!" ”

The barefoot old man measured his face, glanced at me, and laughed twice, "Little girl, what are you worried about?" I've had a decades-long friendship with his father, and you still don't worry about me? ”

I glared at him fiercely, and couldn't help but retort, "I will forget about your daughter's repeated embarrassments before, but now she doesn't kill me!" Am I relieved of you? I might as well trust a stranger! ”

Unexpectedly, the barefoot old man didn't care at all, but waved his hand like a peacemaker old man, "Ouch, you young people, you can't cover your temper, especially my girl, I can't stop talking about her for a man who doesn't love herself." Ouch, if she usually bullies you, can't I, the father, apologize to you for her? ”

I'm so angry that I can't speak, is Ah Nian going to die or live for men?! She's so ruthless, just sending me to the woods to feed the bats and tricking me to the top of a twenty-story building almost made me jump off the oil, that's already murder, okay!

But I don't have the heart to argue with the barefoot old man about this, because Qi Tianyang has already lifted the mosquito net.

On the wooden bed covered with straw mats, there is a coffin!

However, this time the coffin is a big coffin, the kind of coffin used by adults, Qi Tianyang has already reached out to open the coffin lid.

I thought of the terrible scene last time in the melon shed, in that small coffin, when Qi Tianyang's nephew Xiao Xuan was defrauding the corpse, I couldn't help but stand up on my body, "Don't!" ”

The barefoot old man's voice lowered, "It's out of the way." ”

I shoved him hard, "What's out of the way?!" Did you use his nephew's corpse to kill people last time, didn't we mention it, do you think we don't know?! Now you're pretending to be a ghost and you're here again, what the hell do you mean?! ”

The barefoot old man still had that calm expression, and he was not in a hurry to argue with me.

But Qi Tianyang had already opened the lid of the coffin, and I hurriedly rushed up in a panic, only to see a cold air rising from the coffin, pale and intense.

However, I used the method that Qi Tianyang had taught me to look at, and found that it was either corpse qi or ordinary air conditioning.

Qi Tianyang held the coffin and closed his eyes slightly, "Grandpa......"

"Grandpa?!" I was dumbfounded.

The barefoot old man sighed, "Hey, I said that I have no ability, Tianya has a family of seven, in addition to himself, there are six people, but I only helped him find two corpses." ”

I was completely stunned, "Two? Could it be that Xiao Xuan ......"

"Yes, Xiao Xuan was also found by me, but at that time, Boss Huang sent a lot of people to monitor me, and I couldn't find a suitable opportunity to return Xiao Xuan to Tianyang, so I had to think of such a way......" The barefoot old man also walked to the coffin, stretched out his head to look at the old man who was lying inside, calm as if he was asleep, his eyes were a little moist.

He stretched out his hand and patted Qi Tianyang's back, "Tianyang, this is fate, you don't have to be sad, one day, those villains who have harmed your family will surface, when the time comes, let's join forces to eliminate them one by one, and give your family of seven a burial!" ”

Qi Tianyang rolled his Adam's apple and groaned for a long time before he re-closed the coffin lid, turned around and bowed deeply to the barefoot old man, "Uncle is kind and unforgettable." ”

I was the only one who stood on the sidelines, not figuring out what was going on.

"What the hell is going on?"

One of the figures I was most annoyed to see suddenly flashed in and gave me a disdainful look, "With your brain size smaller than a chicken, you can figure out what's going on?" ”

Ah Nian just pinched his waist and stood between the barefoot old man and Qi Tianyang, looking at me with disgust.

Suddenly, I felt as if I was an outsider, and they were one.

What they were doing, what they were thinking, I had absolutely no idea.

Qi Tianyang seemed to sense my thoughts, walked up to me, and said in a low voice, "Let's bury grandpa, and then I'll tell you what's going on." ”

I still wanted to ask something, but seeing that Qi Tianyang's eyes were all affected by the coffin, he had no choice but to stop talking.

Qi Tianyang buried his grandfather next to Xiao Xuan's grave, and he was silent for a long time in the face of two bulging grave bags, one large and one small.

Ah Nian kept looking for my stubble on the side, "What can you do?" The magic doesn't work, the brain is stupid, and the one who drags his hands and feet always drags the hind legs of the sky, you see, grandpa is buried, you can't even dig a grave! ”

My mind was disturbed by her, "What the hell do you want to do?" ”

Ah Nian smiled coldly, "Drive you away from Tianyang!" If you can't drive away, kill it directly! ”

Ah Nian has said this too many times, but in fact, I am not as angry as I was at the beginning. But every time she used to intimidate me with such words, Qi Tianyang would take care of her and protect me very well.

This time, Qi Tianyang not only didn't say anything about her, but didn't even look at me, just silently burned paper money for his grandfather.

My heart cooled down a little bit.

Ah Nian's father and daughter helped him recover his grandfather's corpse, and also released his old suspicions with him, he naturally couldn't conflict with them anymore, not to mention what could I be to him?
