Volume 5 The Curse of the Old Village_Chapter 300 Sheepskin Map
Is there such a place in the world?
"And where is this place? When will I pass? I asked.
"I haven't been to that place either, I'll get you a map when the time comes, and if you go there, of course, the sooner the better. We're going to leave before tonight. ”
I waved my hand: "What kind of map to take, just tell me what car to take and which city to go." ”
The third uncle sneered: "If you can find that place so easily, then what mystery and safety is there in this place." You pack up your things first, keep things down, the less the better. I'll be back in the evening to see you off. ”
After the third uncle finished speaking, he greeted Chu Liuyan and left the hotel.
The fat man came to my room and asked me with concern, "Boss, what did the third uncle tell you?" Are you okay? ”
I shook my head and asked Fat Dahai to sit down, and I took out a card from my body and handed it to Fat Dahai.
The fat man was stunned: "Boss...... It's ......"
I smiled, "Fatty, this is what you deserve." I brought you here, and I promised you a salary. It's 3,000 dollars a month, right? But after we came back from Aojiazhai, I didn't pay you for work, and you were injured during this period. There is 100,000 dollars in this card, and it is for you. Don't be a security guard when the time comes, you can start a small business. ”
When the fat man heard this, he was anxious: "Old ...... Top dog? What are you doing? I didn't ask you for any money...... Besides, even if you give, you don't need to give so much money, right? Are you pushing me away? Am I doing something wrong? ”
I shook my head and smiled bitterly, "Fatty, how could I let you go?" You can also see my situation, and the third uncle will arrange for me to leave here in the evening. I'm not here anymore, and you don't need to follow me anymore. Of course, if you are willing to stay in the hotel to do things, I will ask Chen Tao to arrange a good errand for you. ”
The fat man hurriedly said: "Boss, I will go with you wherever you go, it doesn't matter if you have money or not." I've got you in person. ”
"No, I can't. Fatty, listen to me, although the third uncle didn't tell me where to go, but to my intuition, that place is not as safe as I imagined. It might be more dangerous to get there, so you can't come with me. ”
The fat man smiled: "Boss, you underestimate me, although I am not a big person, but I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death......"
I waved my hand and said lightly, "Fatty, don't say any more, this matter is settled." Take the card, pack your things and go. I'm going to be on my way at night, so I'll have to get some rest. ”
The fat man was stunned, shook his head secretly, nodded again, picked up the card, sighed and turned to leave the room.
I looked at the fat man's back, and my heart was mixed. I have also experienced a lot with the fat man, and it can be seen that he is definitely a righteous person. In my case, I didn't want the fat man to go, but what I told him at the time was true. Although the third uncle said that the place where I went was a place that could save my life, I felt that there was not necessarily less danger there than here. The fat man has already been injured for me, and I don't want to bother him anymore this time.
Maybe leaving me will make his life better.
After the fat man left my room, fruit
Then he packed his things and left the hotel.
He walked so resolutely, when I was sure that he was gone, my heart was not good, I always felt empty.
I knew that the poisonous silkworms would not appear during the day, so I hurried to lie down in bed and rest all afternoon. In the evening, the third uncle rushed back.
The third uncle took a map and handed it to me.
I found that the map was not printed, but hand-drawn, and it didn't seem to be drawn on paper, as if it had been scribbled on a sheepskin.
The map drawn on the sheepskin is not very clear, but you can see that there are mountains, rivers, roads and bridges, and the roads on it are zigzag, and it looks complicated.
The third uncle spread out the map, pointed to a place on it, and said, "Big nephew, do you see it?" The place where you are going to go is the place where you are going in this circle on this parchment map, and this place is a village called Shoushantun. ”
I was stunned: "Shoushantun? Shoushan ......"
The third uncle nodded: "I know what you're thinking, that's right, this place does have something to do with your grandfather." ”
My grandfather's name is Li Shoushan, so when I heard the name Shoushantun, I naturally thought about it more. It's just that I didn't expect that this village really has something to do with my grandfather.
The intersection between me and my grandfather, except for when I was a child, the deepest impression was the bad breath that he spat out on me when his old man was dying.
This breath almost cost me my life, even with the help of the third uncle, I barely saved my life, but it made me extinguish a natal lamp, and in the days to come, let my soul leave my body one after another, until my life is about to be lost.
I often wonder, is this my grandfather's reluctance to let me think of him all the time?
The third uncle continued: "Eldest nephew, you remember, I once told you that your grandfather will not harm you. It must have been the reason for spitting out your anger at that time, and he sent me a message to go back to the old house because he wanted me to save your life......"
I nodded, I did discuss this with the third uncle. It's just that the third uncle is just guessing, and he didn't say why. Unexpectedly, my grandfather passed away for so long, and his name was mentioned again.
The third uncle pointed to the map: "Perhaps, there will be an answer here." As for whether you can find it, it's up to your eldest nephew. ”
"Third uncle, where did this map come from? It doesn't look like it's new. I asked.
The third uncle nodded and said, "This is what your grandfather left behind." Remember when I was kicked out of the house by your grandfather? At that time, he handed me the map, and what he told me at that time was that I should keep this map well, and when it was dangerous, I would go to guard the mountain, and that place would save the life of the Li family. ”
"That was many years ago, and my grandfather could have predicted what would happen later?" I asked.
The third uncle said: "Maybe your grandfather is planning for a rainy day." This map came to my hand, I have not moved, put it in a place in my hometown, a while ago I went back to my hometown, took out the map. But don't pursue these anymore, I have a hunch that Shoushantun may be able to solve a lot of mysteries. It is also the only one that can be guaranteed now
Where you die. Since your grandfather said that the place is safe, you can mention your grandfather's name to the people in the village when you go, and maybe they will take care of you. ”
I flipped through the map, and I had never heard of the names of the places, let alone been there.
The third uncle handed me another piece of paper: "I have studied the map, you set off according to the route indicated on this piece of paper, arrive at a place called Shuixiu Town, and then follow the instructions on this map, you can go to Shoushantun." ”
