Walking to the front of the courtyard, Cao Nan stopped, turned his head to look at the lush and delicate spring mud flowers in the courtyard, they are indeed beautiful and extraordinary, some are high to the sun, some are slightly bowed, different colors, different shades, as if each flower has its own soul, each soul has its own character, proud or shy, domineering or introverted.

"If it were the same as before, I would definitely burn all these evil flowers in one fire." Cao Nan gritted his teeth and said.

Zheng Zhuzhu said: "What about now? ”

Cao Nan's dark and thin face couldn't see the expression, and he looked at the flower quietly.

"I've heard you mention the spring mud flower before, and I'm also very curious, I think this flower is very scary and evil. But now that I'm in the middle of the flowers, I don't feel scared. I don't know how many souls are buried under this flower, but maybe the remains of their loved ones are buried under a certain flower, and their blood and bones feed new life, as if their souls were also attached to the flower branch and did not die. Thinking about it this way, this spring mud is also like another reincarnation of life, which is much better than crushing bones and scattering ashes, I think adults should think the same way, so they didn't destroy them. ”

Cao Nan stared at Zheng Zhuzhu for a while, and smiled: "It's different if you've read the book, and you can talk very tactfully, I can't tell you this big truth, but maybe it's right, as long as they don't come out to harm people, they just grow quietly in the slope." ”

The two walked out, and Zheng Zhu suddenly asked, "By the way, I heard Mr. Cao mention my father before, why did Mr. Cao have a relationship with my father?" ”

Cao Nan said: "I just mentioned that, you have a good memory." ”

Zheng Zhuzhu chuckled: "It's just that my father has been away for a long time, and he doesn't deal with people in the town, so Mr. Cao will mention my father, naturally he will feel a little strange." ”

Cao Nan looked at Zheng Zhuzhu, seemed to appreciate her, his expression softened a lot, and said, "Speaking of friendship, there really isn't." Many years ago, when I wasn't here, he approached me with a lot of connections. ”

Zheng Zhuzhu's eyes narrowed in surprise.

"But soon he found out that he was looking for the wrong person, and he was looking for my brother Cao Liang, not me. So there is no friendship, but a little impression. ”

"Why is my father looking for Mr. Cao's brother? Do they have a relationship? ”

Cao Nan shook his head and said, "No, otherwise you wouldn't have to rely on so many relationships, and you wouldn't have found fault with me." I probably know that your father is looking for Cao Liang to ask him to find someone. ”

"Looking for someone?"

Cao Liang prefers detectives, and he is also well-known in this regard, but he worships the official family and does not go in and out of the rivers and lakes, and few people can find him, let alone ask him to do things. Your father must have come here to ask him to use the art of tracing to find someone. ”

Master Zheng, looking for someone-

"How long ago was that? Does Mr. Cao know who my father is looking for? ”

"It's been about twenty years, I didn't say anyone, I just knew that it was a woman-" Cao Nan frowned, as if recalling something, and said, "I interrupted the portrait when he was halfway through it, and now that I think about it, I am a bit like you between my eyebrows, and that girl should be about the same age as you are now." ”

That's Li Yueyu, there is no doubt. Master Zheng has never given up looking for her, and the methods that should be used should have been used, the love is so deep, then Li Yueyu is not in vain.

Unexpectedly, Cao Nan actually intersected with Master Zheng because of this relationship.

Cao Nan and Zheng Jewel are not troubled people, and the question stops, just as Zheng Jewel didn't ask too much about Cao Liang, Cao Nan didn't test Zheng Jewel to know who the woman was, or what kind of blood relationship she had if she looked so similar.

The two of them walked silently through the foggy slope.

This is suspected to be Cao Liang's ecstasy array more than 20 years ago, Cao Nan walked a lot slower, he seemed to be slowly reminiscing, trying to find a sense of family affection in it.

But the Ecstasy Array is just a lifeless formation, anyone who understands the Five Elements will swing, it does not have any characteristics or emotions attached, especially in the past so many years, even if Cao Liang once left any instructions in it, it has disappeared completely.

Out of the foggy slope, Zheng Zhu said: "If Mr. Cao has something, go first, I know the way back, and I don't dare to delay you again." ”

Cao Nan stared ahead, frowning.

Zheng Zhuzhu sniffed and turned his head to look in that direction.

Just look at the thick smoke billowing over the backyard of Xie Po's house, like a large dark cloud that will not dissipate hovering over this house.

Zheng Zhuzhu said: "How can there be so many cigarettes? It seems that there is still a fire, so it can't be on fire, right? ”

Cao Nan said: "It's a little wrong, go take a look." ”

The two walked quickly to Xie Po's house, and as soon as they got closer, they could hear the noise in the backyard, and Cao Nan didn't care about any etiquette, kicked open the door of the house, and walked to the backyard.

As soon as I arrived in the backyard, the courtyard was indeed on fire, and there were piles of fires burning everywhere, it felt like a spark accidentally splashed out, staining the messy and flammable things piled up in the yard, it is estimated that it burned for a while, fortunately, there was no wind in this area, and the fire did not get bigger.

Cao Nan immediately pushed Zheng Jewel back and said, "Miss Zheng, let's stay in the house, I can't afford something to happen." ”

"But—"

Cao Nan rolled up his sleeves and rushed to the courtyard, pulled Granny Xie over, and said angrily: "Don't die, what are you worried about if you don't save the fire?" Flash aside. ”

Granny Xie glared at him with a hideous face, then turned her head to stare at Zheng Zhuzhu, and said angrily, "Who let you in?" What do you want to do? Shameless dog men and women who kill a thousand knives—"

Cao Nan gritted his teeth, pushed her under the eaves, and said, "Incorrigible crazy woman! ”

Zheng Zhuzhu instinctively wanted to help her, but he was afraid, so he stepped forward and retreated back in broken steps.

Cao Nan took a quick look in the courtyard, tore off the blanket hanging on the wall, walked to an old water tank in the corner of the courtyard, and looked down.

"Fuck off! Stay away from my Chen jar! Granny Xie was not grateful to Cao Nan for sacrificing herself to put out the fire for her, but roared angrily.

Cao Nan didn't bother to pay attention to her, covered his nose and stuffed the blanket into the water tank, and pulled it out after wetting, the blanket was not clean, and the whole thing was black and yellow, Zheng Zhuzhu frowned and covered his nose, thinking that the sewage in this tank was very smelly.

Cao Nan quickly extinguished the scattered flames with a wet blanket, and finally threw the blanket in the brazier with great disgust.

Granny Xie hurriedly ran to the water tank, looked inside, her eyes were like bells, and her face was hideous: "You who can't die well, you actually took the bone purification water I painstakingly brewed to put out the fire, I want you to pay for your life-" After that, the fierce god rushed towards Cao Nan viciously.

Cao Nan kicked the brazier away in disgust and returned to the house to pat the dust off her body.

Zheng Jewel couldn't help but say: "Mr. Cao is also eager to fight fires, and the skin will be attached if there is no hair, mother-in-law——"

"Who is your mother-in-law? The little goblin hoof, thinking that she is a fairy daughter with a little youthful appearance, she calls everyone her mother-in-law - but I like your Kai shoulder, the fire can't burn the water and won't seep, you broke my blanket and splashed half of my bone water, you leave this Kai shoulder and the ditch, I don't care about you. Granny Xie looked at Zheng Zhuzhu's clothes gloomily, and her eyes seemed to carry countless poisonous snakes that could suck blood.

Zheng Zhuzhu was so frightened that he retreated behind Cao Nan and said softly: "This-this Kai shoulder is a gift from Shibo, and the little woman can't give it away at will." ”

"If you can't bear the clothes, then leave someone behind, chat with me to relieve my boredom, and wash my bones and bones!" Granny Xie rushed towards Zheng Jewel viciously.

Cao Nan grabbed her and said, "It's endless, you still have to make a face, do you really want to live like a ghost animal before you are willing?!" ”

Granny Xie pinched his hand, gritted her teeth, the wrinkles on her face kept distorting with her expression, and she said in horror: "How do I care about your old man's life, I still protect the hooves of the little fox at my age, shameless!" Spit! ”

Granny Xie spat on Cao Nan's body, Cao Nan gritted her teeth, pushed her aside, and casually pulled something around her to wipe the filth on her body.

"Dang-ding" twice, and something fell to the ground with his rubbing.

Both of them looked to the ground, Cao Nan bent down to pick it up, but Granny Xie quickly threw herself on the ground as if she had fallen into an evil spirit, and held the waist card and bracelet that fell on the ground in her hand.

"Kong Xie? Kong Xie! This is Kong Xie's bracelet! How could you have this bracelet! Granny Xie's whole body trembled, and the green tendons of her hands holding the bracelet were piled up like tree roots.

"Is this really the bracelet of the Kong family?" Cao Nan forgot to be angry and asked urgently.

Granny Xie quickly got up from the ground and glared at Cao Nan, her expression was almost crazy: "Who are you?" How do you have their tokens? This waist card - this bracelet - where is Kong Xie? Where did you hide them?! ”

Cao Nan frowned, looking like his heart was dead, and said, "You...... Are you really Cao Yan? ”

Cao-Cao Yan?

My eyes widened, and so did Zheng Jewel-

This- how is this possible?!

No matter how you look at this Granny Xie, she is sixty or seventy, and Cao Nan can be her nephew!

I have only heard the name Cao Yan recently, I heard Song Lingjian mention it before, in the clouds, today I only know that it is Cao Nan's niece, thinking of some young girls of the same age in the town, I feel that no one's age or life experience is particularly right, but I really knocked my head I would not have thought that it would be Granny Xie!

No wonder Cao Nan said that he didn't dare to face it...... It's me, and I say that this Granny Xie is my distant cousin, and I don't dare to face it, because ......

Because she's really too! Can! Fear! Finish!

I often feel that she and Wupo are one, and in the whole town, except for Xihuayuan and Wupo, the third terrifying person is her.

"It's you, I've seen you with Miko - you asked Miko to come to me with that huntress, didn't you?!" Granny Xie trembled, not knowing whether she was excited or sad.

It seems that Han Sanxiao and Song Lingjian did come to find Granny Xie and confirmed her identity, so Cao Nan should also be recalled by Han Sanxiao's flying pigeon biography.
