Chapter 22 XXI

"Joy. He rushed to Xi Huanyan with an anxious look, "Are you back......?" In the future, my family will be your home, with me and my grandfather, I will never let you suffer a little grievance!"

The villagers next to him helped, "Yes, the clan will raise you, and you will go to the clan hall to eat in the future, this time the clan is generous, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the immediate family members of the victim within five years have been covered by the clan, and an extra share will be given when distributing materials." ”

Xi Huanyan turned a deaf ear, his eyes swept over the three of them, and he noticed that the eyes of the two people behind Xi Qiongdong dodged, and asked, "Are you Xi Qiongwan and Xi Qiongzhong?"

"Huan Yan!" Xi Qiongdong interjected, "You should call them brother and sister." ”

He turned his head to the two of them, "My master's daughter is a little sexy, and when you get acquainted, she is still very polite." ”

Xi Qiongwan and Xi Qiongzhong immediately waved their hands, "It's okay, it's okay, how can we care about a child." ”

Xi Huan left expressionlessly and locked himself in a new house.

In the new house, Xi Huanyan packed up Gu Jianxuan's things as if she had nothing to do, carefully folded the clothes one by one, put them in the wooden box, and sealed the books she usually reads, the pens she uses, and the small objects she plays with.

When she touched the cigarette gun on the bookcase, Xi Huanyan filled in the cigarette with a ghostly expression, lit it, and suffocated a puff of cigarette into her chest, choking her tears out, and there seemed to be a sense of relief in the suffocation.

Shen Yangqing, the second aunt who came over, snatched the cigarette gun with her hand, "What are you doing, this is something you can touch at your age?!"

Xi Huanyan grabbed Shen Yangqing's wrist, "Second aunt, my mother's death is not so simple. ”

Shen Yangqing is very distressed about Xi Huanyan, she did not choose to join the genealogy of Xijia Village, now that Xi Cangjin is dead, the relationship with the family is over, the relationship between relatives is naturally dispensable, she can leave at any time, but she watched this child grow up, so she wanted to stay for a while and see the village's arrangements for the child.

"Why do you say that? Shen Yangqing asked patiently, considering the words of reassurance.

Xi Huanyan said two extremely sonorous words, "Intuition!"

Shen Yangqing couldn't stop feeling pity in her heart, worried that she had been hit too hard, and did not admit her mother's death.

"My mother has a pendant that doesn't burn, but I didn't find it at the bottom of the cliff. Xi Huanyan stared at her closely, "Second aunt, you must have seen your mother's clothed mound, is there it among the relics at that time?"

Shen Yangqing thought about it for a moment and shook his head.

"Then there are three possibilities left, one, my mother did not die at the bottom of the cliff in the wind, the body was buried elsewhere, the second, someone took the pendant by the hand, and the third, the body did burn at the bottom of the cliff, but the pendant disappeared for various natural reasons, if it is the third one, I admit it, but the premise is that I want to rule out the first two possibilities. ”

“...... What do you want to do?"

Xi Huanyan said resolutely, "Dig the basement first." ”

When it got dark, Shen Yangqing found two villagers who were close to him, and came to the hunter's house in the redwood forest with Xi Huanyan.

The two villagers were suspicious, "That's it, why do you say there's a body buried in it?"

"There are rocks on the beams, and the basement floor has been resurfaced. Xi Huanyan stayed in the hut and didn't go down, what she didn't say was that if there was really a corpse underground, the suspect label would be directly attached to Xi Qiongdong.

This person is her father's apprentice, not a disciple, she is sure that her father has not yet taught him the Moheng Method, but he has been by her father's side for a long time, and some of the doorways should have touched the skin, so he made the move of letting go of the murderous stone, and because he seemed to understand it, the means were clumsy.

The three of them felt that the reason was a bit far-fetched, but they went down the basement anyway.

A villager said, "I actually accompanied you here to go crazy, what kind of murder stone means that there is a corpse hidden below?"

Shen Yangqing: "Just to make the child feel at ease." ”

Okay, who let this child's father and mother contribute so much to the village?

They dug into the soil, and it didn't take long for them to dig out a rotten piece.

Take the oil lamp and take a closer look, it's carrion!

"it!"

"Gross!"

The three of them rushed out of the basement and vomited, and the scene was extremely dirty.

Xi Huanyan was strangely calm, she leaned on the side of the wooden bed with her knees crossed, and looked at them quietly.

"It looks like a rotten belly. ”

"Please, don't say it. ”

Shen Yangqing continued with a dark face, "At least it means that there are really corpses down there." ”

She tore a strip of cloth from her body, covered her mouth and nose, and re-entered the basement.

The other two had no choice but to follow, and since they had dug up the corpses, they had to determine the identity of the corpses.

They didn't expect that this digging would dig up a full twenty-one corpses!

Shen Yangqing climbed out of the basement again, as if he was in another world. There is no Xi Cangjin there, he should have died in the wind and over the cliff, Xi Cangping personally brought her this bad news, according to their close brotherly relationship, there is no need to lie to her about Xi Cangjin's death.

It's just that Gu has no time......

Xi Huanyan looked sideways at the door and said lightly, "My mother is inside, right." ”

Shen Yangqing's throat moved, so dry that she couldn't speak, she walked up to Xi Huanyan, spread out her palm, and the jade pendant was warm in color, like amber.

"Heh....." Xi Huanyan looked at the pendant and didn't move for a long time, and he couldn't lift his arm.

Shen Yangqing took her hand distressedly and put the pendant in her palm, "Huan Yan, the second aunt will definitely seek justice for your mother and those who died!"

She whispered again, "You just watch, don't worry about it, go back to the mountains to learn art with peace of mind." ”

The victims, who thought they had burned at the bottom of the cliff in the wind, were buried under the hunter's house, and the fool knew that the seven surviving people were hiding something.

But those seven people, there is the village chief Xi Xushui, there is the spiritual consciousness Xi Qiongdong, and there is a star martial artist Xi Cangping, it is not easy to fight, she must not let this child fall into danger.

When the other two villagers who came up heard this, they also said, "This matter is up to us, let's go to the elder of the Xun clan, he will tell the water that even if he is the patriarch, he can't fool us!"

"There must be a truth about this matter, this is all our people, how can it not be clear and buried here to rot!"

"Second aunt. As soon as Xi Huanyan spoke, the hut immediately fell silent, and the three adults looked at her cautiously.

"I'm going to take my mother out of here. She said, "I will not leave my mother on the boundary of Xijia Village." ”

These words made the two Xi family members uncomfortable, and they successively said that they would let the clan make decisions for her, Xi Huanyan turned a deaf ear and walked into the basement.

In the dim, corpse-smelling room, she looked at one of the corpses that was so decomposed that she couldn't see its original face almost instantly.

Xi Huanyan took off her coat, knelt on the ground, wrapped her up, hugged her horizontally, and disappeared into the long night.

A cluster of fire rose on the bank of the river, and the sky and the earth were silent.

Shen Yangqing had the heart to accompany Xi Huanyan, but without further ado, he turned his head and rushed to the village with a villager to ask the clan elder to call the shots.

They deliberately bypassed Xi Xushui and secretly woke up Xi Xuxun, Xi Xuxun heard about this, and almost didn't turn his back in one breath, trembling and asked his daughter Xi Xuyun to take someone to check the situation.

Xi Xuyun's reputation in the clan is no worse than Xi Xuanxun, but due to the rule that direct blood relatives are not allowed to sit in the clan hall, he has not yet become a clan elder, but he will handle clan affairs instead of Xi Xuanxun.

She called the other clan elders who were handy and hurried to the redwood forest.
