Xiao Xin said that there are many stones here, and the big ones are the size of an elephant. The small ones are only as small as gravel.

"How is that possible? I didn't see any. Johnson wondered. Really, the situation at that time was chaotic. How can I have time to see my surroundings? Fortunately, Zhou Neng remembered one thing.

"Yes, don't forget that I was near that boulder for a while. And then you guys came, too? ”

"That's right! Why didn't I notice? Johnson wondered.

"I don't think you should guess, call the old uncle and ask if you know what kind of place this is?"

Xiao Xin went outside and invited the old man who had just returned from the mountain into the house.

There was a large bunk in the house, and the two seriously ill people were lying on the bunks. Johnson doesn't hurt when he falls, he hurts when he gets up. After saving Brother Domineering, I felt soreness all over my body and multiple soft tissue abrasions. The skin is fair, and there are many dark red bruises on the subcutaneous layer, similar to the legendary ghost pinching blue.

He was sitting on the bunk, a rickety kerosene lamp, which he used to read. The book was given to him by the old man to mix time, a yellow, somewhat rotten and unknown broken book. When he saw the old man come in, he put down his book and looked at him and asked, "Old uncle, we want to know what kind of place this is." ”

"Shicheng, what's wrong?" The room was dimly lit, and the old man was a lot older, but his sharp eyes were shining, and his waist was straight.

"Nothing, old uncle, do you know there's a cemetery near here?" It was Zhou Neng who was questioned this time.

The domineering brother is on the side. Hum, maybe it's because of the pain of the wound! However, the voice was not loud enough to interfere with their conversation.

"Cemetery?" The old man was stunned for a moment, and his face changed, "Listen to my advice, don't go to that kind of place." ”

It seems that the old man knows about this cemetery, and Johnson is a little excited, and having a cemetery is enough to prove that he has not fooled people. Then Zhou Neng and Brother Domineering had no reason to scold themselves, for the old man's warning, he didn't care but looked at Zhou Neng, who was also surprised, and his eyes were full of brilliance, and he said proudly: "How is it?" I didn't fool you! ”

"......" Indeed, there is nothing to say, and Zhou Neng is speechless.

The domineering brother moved his mouth and wanted to say something. The skin hurts! I had to give up. Communicate with Zhou Neng with his eyes: Everything has to wait for everyone's injuries to heal before acting.

The old man saw that the other party did not seem to listen to his advice, and did not continue to say anything. He turned and left the house, and he had to go and dry the herbs he had picked up.

"Cemetery?" Xiao Xin was surprised: "You won't come to the cemetery specifically, right?" ”

"Go, the hair is long and the knowledge is short, the man does things, when will it be your turn to ask?" Zhou Neng scolded his girlfriend. Suddenly remembering something, he looked at Jiang Sen again and said, "What did the old uncle say just now?" ”

"He told us not to go to that kind of place." Xiao Xin wanted to be next to Zhou Neng, but she didn't care that Jiang Sen and Brother Domineering were there, so she stood in place without embarrassment.

Zhou Neng frowned when he heard this......

Johnson and Brother Domineering looked at him at the same time.

"Any questions?" Johnson couldn't help asking.

Zhou Neng raised his head suddenly, looking very determined. The tone of discussion said: "The old uncle must know something, let's listen to what he has to say?" ”

Jiang Sen felt that Zhou Neng's brain was easy to use, and what others hadn't thought of, he had thought of.

"I agree."

Brother Domineering felt that they had to be careful if they were going to the ancient tomb. The more people know, the worse it is.

However, he still took a neutral attitude towards Zhou Neng's words and was impartial-

Since this is the case, then the three of them have to go out to bask in the sun and see how much the old man knows about the ancient tomb.

The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and there is a huge banyan tree in the courtyard that can block the sun's rays. A table and a few chairs had already been placed under the banyan tree, and the old man saw them coming out one by one, and said with a smile: "Just set it up, you will come out." ”

Then the old man asked Xiao Xin to go to the kitchen to bring food. The so-called meal is not so particular at home, but a potsticker flatbread, a snow-white onion for each person-

Xiao Xin refused to eat shallots, she felt that there was a pungent smell of shallots when she opened her mouth. At Zhou Neng's request, he just symbolically reluctantly tore a piece of dry pot pancakes, and stuffed them into his mouth very delicately, as if it was difficult to swallow, and his eyebrows furrowed - a touching and pitiful appearance.

"Women are trouble, picky eaters!" The domineering brother was angry when he looked at it. Regardless of it, he took a bite of the green onion and chewed it with a squeaky taste. The spicy and choking smell he wouldn't say.

Xiao Xin thought that she was at home well, and was fooled by Zhou Neng into coming here to suffer. The sense of grievance was overwhelming, his nose was sour, his eyes were hazy with tears, but he didn't say anything, he tore a large piece of black pancake and stuffed it into his mouth, and he really felt sick when he ate it.

Johnson was uncomfortable eating these things he had never seen before! I don't dare to say it, for fear that the domineering brother will make it difficult. can only endure all kinds of unpleasantness, and eat silently.

In comparison, Zhou Neng can be regarded as a kind of hard-working and not deliberately picky eater. He ate a mouthful of soup, a mouthful of pancakes, and a mouthful of green onions more domineering than the domineering brother.

In between meals, he also lost no time in communicating with the old man.

"Uncle, why do you have so many stones here?" Zhou Neng took his eyes off the stones piled up in the courtyard dam, stared at the old man and asked pretending to be curious.

"You may not know it, but this is the Stone City, which is famous for its stones." The old man ate himself first, and habitually wiped his mouth with the palm of his hand and replied indifferently.

Stone City! This is really a stone city, which is great! Not only Zhou Nengwei was surprised, but the rest of Jiang Sen and the domineering brother were also secretly surprised. The former continued to talk to the old man, deliberately pretending to be puzzled and said, "Is there anyone else in the old man's house?" ”

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "I won't tell you, I'll be alone." In such a miserable place, the land is barren, and all you can see is stones. You can't grow good crops, and you can't keep people! Where to find the mother-in-law? Even if there is, it's not like trying to marry in a place with good conditions. ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, man, I shouldn't have mentioned it." Zhou Neng said sympathetically.

"It's okay, it's fate. How can you be blamed? The old man looked bitter and said with a wry smile.

"Let's change the subject." Zhou Neng wiped his mouth with his sleeve and sneered: "Old man, I heard that there is an ancient tomb here?" ”

At first glance, when he heard the young man mention the ancient tomb again, the old man's face sank, he was angry, and he said in an aggravated tone: "Why don't you give up? I told you just now, don't go to that kind of place. ”

"No, we're here to help a friend. Look at him—" Zhou Neng pointed at Johnson. His unexpected move naturally startled Jiang Sen, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he was making in his gourd.
