Compared with the houses of other villagers, these houses are obviously much newer, and the paint on the gate seems to be freshly painted, and there is a faint smell of paint.

At the gate of this blue brick house, Xu Changhe stopped, pointed to the house and said to me: "This was the residence of the Shoushan Lord back then, but after the Shoushan Ye left, we repaired it again. For the last 20 years, we have had to renovate every two years. Just waiting for the descendants of the mountain keeper to return here one day. Today we finally have you here, so you can live here first. ”

I nodded, anyway, settle down first. Otherwise, it's easy to talk during the day, and at night, I can't even have a place to live with Fat Dahai.

Xu Changhe took out a key from his body, opened a large iron lock hanging on the door, pushed the door, and let us in.

Fat Dahai and I walked into the courtyard, and the old man with triangular eyes at the door wanted to follow us in.

As a result, Xu Changhe coughed loudly and drank: "Xu Errat......"

The old man was about to cross the threshold with one leg, and when Xu Changhe shouted like this, he hurriedly shrank back in fright.

It turned out that the old man's name was Xu Errat, I was funny in my heart, and I said that this name was really appropriate, I don't know if it was his real name or a nickname.

Xu Changhe said in a deep voice: "Since we have to abide by the rules of the mountain master, then we have to abide by them to the end." When the mountain keeper was there, he didn't allow us to enter this courtyard for half a step. The grandson of the mountain keeper is back, and we must all abide by it, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind. ”

That Xu Errat knew that he was wrong, although he was a little angry, but he didn't say anything.

That Xu Changhe waved his hand: "Okay, Li Yang has already arrived at the residence, everyone should disperse first." When it's time to eat, I'll go to my house again. ”

The people around listened and dispersed.

At this time, they returned to their old appearance, and their movements slowed down.

Looking at their backs, I can still remember the expressions on their faces when they knew that I was a descendant of Li Shoushan just now. At that time, they were not like old men in their twilight, but more like the afterlife of their prime.

What is it that makes them judge two people before and after?

Watching them go away, my heart was also up and down, and they seemed to attach great importance to my identity as Li Shoushan's grandson. It's just that although I'm my grandfather's grandson, I didn't know anything about it when I came here. Now I don't know what to do.

At this time, Fat Dahai looked at the blue brick house and said, "Boss, this house is good, it is much better than other houses in the village." It seems that this Xu Changhe is good to you and your grandfather. What the hell did your grandfather do? ”

I've never told Fat Dahai about my grandfather, so I guess he has more questions in his heart than I do. It's just that he doesn't pretend to be a person with something in his head, and even if he has doubts, he probably won't think about it carefully.

I didn't want to do it anymore, and I didn't bother to answer the fat sea, so I was ready to go into the house and rest first.

And just then, I suddenly heard someone shouting softly

My name.

I was stunned for a moment, and looked left and right, and the gate was empty, and there was no one. There was no one in the yard except for the fat sea.

I thought I had misheard, but then someone shouted.

I listened closely, and it seemed to be coming from the other side of the fence.

I walked over slowly and pressed my ear to the wall. At this time, the voice came out again: "Li Yang......"

"Who are you?" I asked in a low voice.

"Don't be afraid, I'm a villager from Shoushantun, and your grandfather is kind to me."

"That'...... You come in and talk? ”

"No, I have to abide by the rules set by the mountain master. I can't stay here for long, I'll just leave you a few words, you have to remember. At noon, someone will come to you and go to the patriarch's house for dinner. You must not eat eggs, and you must go back to this yard before dark, and no matter what happens outside, you can't take half a step out of this yard, remember? ”

The people outside, their voices were a little hoarse, but they spoke very quickly.

"I remember, who is the senior?"

I asked, but I didn't hear an answer, but heard a rush of footsteps go away.

Fat Dahai also squatted to the side and heard these words, and he asked, "Boss, did that Yumo also tell you that you can't eat eggs?" ”

I nodded: "They don't let me eat eggs, is this egg poisonous?" ”

Fat Dahai scratched his head and said, "Boss, it looks calm here on the surface, but in fact, there is an undercurrent surging down here......"

I glanced at the fat sea: ", even you can see it?" It seems that we are really unlucky? ”

Fat Dahai smiled innocently: "Anyway, there is someone here to help you." Both of them say that eggs can't be eaten, so you don't eat them. Let you come back before dark, then come back, what a simple thing......"

I shook my head: "Fat man, you forgot, that rain foam still told us." Don't trust anyone easily, the purpose of that person just now is unknown, is he also among anyone? ”

Fat Dahai nodded and said, "Then it must be counted." It's hard to tell if what these people say is true or false, and it's a real headache. I feel that the way they look at you is wrong, I think that old patriarch is also preoccupied, and that Xu mouse is not like a good person. ”

I was stunned: "It's Xu Ermo, right?" ”

Fat Dahai waved his hand: "Anyway, he looks like a mouse, and his eyes are sneaky when he looks at people." ”

I stretched my waist vigorously: "No matter, let's rest in the house for a while." The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, whether it is a blessing or a curse, and it will not be a curse to avoid it......"

Fat Dahai is also a big-hearted person, and when he saw me say this, he was even more lazy to do the work of figuring out people's hearts, so he stepped forward and opened the door.

The house was clean, and it didn't smell damp and stale that had been uninhabited for a long time. It seems that Xu Changhe is not lying, they are really often cleaned in this room.

There are three or four rooms in this brick house. In the middle is a main hall, with a bedroom on the left and a bedroom, and a cooking area at the back.

Although it is neat, the furnishings are simple. There is a round table in the main hall with a few chairs

On the front of the house, against the wall, there is an offering table, which is supposed to be dedicated to some kind of god. But strangely, the idol of the enshrined deity is covered with a red cloth. The red cloth covered the idol tightly. In front of the idol there is an incense burner and an offering of incense. I lifted my nose and didn't smell the incense.

Each bedroom has a single wooden bed with complete bedding. A set of bamboo tables and chairs with teapots and bowls on them.

There is no toilet in the house, and the toilet needs to go to the back yard, which is the kind of dry toilet that is common in rural areas.
