"Knock Knock Knock ......"

After a dull knock on the door, Yang Qing and I waited patiently in front of the door for a long time, but no one opened the door.

I tentatively called out Zhou's name, but I still didn't get any response.

Could it be, Ah Gong Zhou still lives near that temple, right?

Thinking so, I reached out and pushed the door tentatively, and I pushed it open all at once.

This dilapidated house is still the same as before I left, it is full of rotten smells, and the house is full of clay sculptures, which looks quite frightening.

Yang Qing walked behind me and followed me into the house.

"Ah Gong Zhou lives in such a house?" Yang Qing was a little surprised.

I nodded and said, "Yes, when I first came here with Fat Liu, I thought it was incredible. He used to be a figure with a head and a face in the circle, and he should have a lot of money in his hands, and it is really incomprehensible to live in such a place. However, later, with the discovery of Liu Fatzi and me, I really understood why Zhou Grandpa chose to live here. ”

Yang Qing turned her head and looked at me with wide eyes, as if waiting for me to say the following.

I thought about it and said, "I'll take you to see it, I hope Ah Gong Zhou doesn't come back halfway, otherwise it will be embarrassing." ”

When Yang Qing heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Fifth brother, I'm just a little curious, I don't have to see it, just talk about it." ”

I pointed to the broken window by the window and said to Yang Qing: "Under the bed, there is a secret passage, which leads to a secret room, and there is a coffin in the secret room, and there are many tools that Zhou Ah Gong once used. ”

Yang Qing exclaimed: "There is a coffin? Is that a tomb? ”

I shook my head and said, "The new coffin has not been used, and there is a shroud in it, which was prepared for him by Zhou Agong." ”

Yang Qing fell silent when she heard this, bowed her head and said nothing, not knowing what she was thinking.

I wandered around the room boredly, scanning my gaze over the clay figurines. There are more clay sculptures, but the workmanship is slightly rougher than before, it should be done by Zhou Agong after I and Liu Fatzi left, and it was very unmoody.

"Yang Qing, do you know why Ah Gong Zhou pinched so many clay sculptures?" I asked.

Yang Qing shook her head to indicate that she didn't know, and then looked at me, waiting for my next words.

After I was silent for more than ten seconds, I said, "These clay sculptures, he said are his redemption of his past. He has no children and no daughters, and he can only be alone until he dies for the rest of his life. So, I think, the reason why he made so many clay sculptures is just to desire something to accompany him, right? ”

Yang Qing said: "Fifth brother, hearing you say this, I feel that Zhou Agong is quite pitiful. Didn't you say that he longed to treat you as his own child, so are you willing to help him retire in the future? ”

I had never considered this question before, and for a moment I didn't know how to give an answer, so I could only fall silent.

After a long time, I sighed and said, "Maybe, I don't know." ”

According to my arrangement, Shen Dali, Leng Yue and Zhao Zitong all stayed in the car, after all, so many people entered Grandpa Zhou's house at once, and if he saw it, it was actually very bad, and it was easy for Grandpa Zhou to misunderstand us.

However, Yang Qing and I waited in this broken house for more than an hour, and before Zhou Grandpa came back, everyone couldn't help but get anxious, and Leng Yue even entered the house, standing at the door and looking into the distance.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Perhaps, he really lives in another place these days, let's go and see." ”

With that, we got back into the car.

Guided by my memory, Shen Dali drove us to the mountain, and saw the thatched hut that had collapsed a little halfway up the mountain.

The thatched hut was empty, looking like an unfinished country toilet, and it was clear that no one had lived in it for a long time.

If Ah Gong Zhou is not here, nor is he in his house, then where could he be? Could it be that we came here this time by coincidence, and happened to run into him going out of the house?

However, if he did leave the courtyard door, why didn't he lock the door of his room?

With many doubts, we returned to the small house near the farmland.

I beckoned Yang Qing to get out of the car first and enter Ah Gong Zhou's house again. I moved out of bed, found the secret passage, and took Yang Qing into the dark passage.

Yang Qing said with some uneasiness: "Fifth brother, wouldn't it be good for us to do this." If Zhou Ah Gong really came back at this time, wouldn't it be difficult to explain? ”

I said, "If that's the case, I'll say I care about him, so I'm looking for him everywhere, and this secret passage that I accidentally found is fine." ”

As he was talking, the two of us followed the secret passage to the secret room where Zhou Agong's coffin was placed.

Unlike last time, the chamber had been built with brick walls, and there was no way to enter it directly.

Under what circumstances will the Zhou Guild block this place? After thinking about it for a while, my heart shook violently, and I said urgently: "Yang Qing, go back and let Leng Yue come down." ”

Seeing that my tone was anxious, Yang Qing didn't ask anything, and quickly withdrew from the secret channel.

After a while, Leng Yue entered the dark passage and quickly came to my side.

"Leng Yue, do me a favor and smash this wall open for me." After saying that, I felt that it was a bit reckless to do so, and I was worried that Leng Yue's strength would be too great, so I pushed out the bricks and smashed the coffin inside, so I quickly changed my words: "It's best to let the wall fall to our side." ”

Leng Yue was about to hit the wall with her shoulder, but after hearing my later words, she quickly stopped, glared at me fiercely, and motioned me to retreat farther away.

Then, he took out the iron chopsticks, but instead of throwing them long, he went directly to the front of the wall and inserted them between two different bricks.

With his astonishing strength, as if he were cutting tofu, he used the two iron chopsticks to circle around the brick, and finally clamped the brick out.

When a brick comes out, a hole appears in the wall.

Immediately after, Leng Yue put away the iron chopsticks, put her hand into the hole, and slammed it outward.

Laughing hard in the cold moon, broken bricks fell from the wall and scattered all over the ground. Correspondingly, a dark hole appeared in the wall, but no sound came from inside the secret room, and it sounded like there should not be a living person inside.

If this wall was sealed by Ah Gong Zhou later, then what would be the purpose of his doing this?

While I was thinking about it, Leng Yue flashed and went directly into the hole.

After a while, Leng Yue withdrew from it, with a nervous look on her eyebrows. He raised his hand to the black hole, but he didn't say what he saw inside, as if he wanted me to go in and see.
