Chapter 119
"What?" I slammed to my feet, wondering, "No, my dad left me a few hours ago." "But he hasn't come back yet." I heard my mother's voice choked a little, and hurriedly comforted her: "Mom, don't worry, maybe my dad went out for a meal, and now he will be home soon." Well, I'll go out and have a look, and maybe I'll run into my dad. ”
After speaking, I hurriedly opened the door, a gust of cold wind came, I couldn't help but shiver, the weather has gradually entered autumn, the temperature in the middle of the night is almost only eight or nine degrees Celsius, I can't help but wonder a little, such a cold day, where did he go. Riding on the bike, I rode all the way along the road from the small courtyard to the county seat, there was no one on the road, the rumble of the motorcycle engine echoed throughout the suburbs, maybe it was the ghost in my heart, I always felt that someone was following me.
I looked all the way down the road, trying to find some traces, but in vain. Soon, I was back at the door, but I didn't find anything. I opened the door and found that the living room was brightly lit, my mother was sitting on the sofa and sobbing quietly, and Situ Yu was sitting next to her in pajamas to comfort her, it seemed that she had just woken up. When she saw me come in, she whispered, "Did you find anything?" ”
My face was a little ugly, I shook my head slightly, and said, "There are no traces of a car accident along the way, so my dad shouldn't have any safety hazards." Hearing this, my mother's sobbing voice suddenly became much quieter, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then I heard her say, "Then where is your father, the phone can't get through, and no one is there." I just said, "Did you go out and drink with my uncles, and when you get drunk, you sleep with them?" ”
She shook her head, and was about to say something, when suddenly I heard the sound of a motorcycle engine at the door, and after more than ten seconds, my dad pushed the door in, and saw that there were no scars on his body, I couldn't help but be stunned, and said: "Dad, where have you been, if you don't come home in the middle of the night, my mother is in a hurry." Hearing this, my father was also stunned, and after a while, he said, "Didn't I go home directly from you?" I remember I told you about it. ”
Hearing his answer, I was even more puzzled: "You mean you walked on the road for seven or eight hours?" "Seven or eight hours, how is that possible?" My dad was also stunned, and was about to say something, but my mother said coldly: "Okay, don't make up any reason, it's still seven or eight hours, your son just came back from the courtyard, and he didn't see you all the way, you see, what time is it now?" Next time you go out and fool around, can you come back early! After saying that, my mom went upstairs in a huff, leaving my dad alone with questions. I took out my phone and showed him the time, and he suddenly exclaimed: "How is it possible, the sky I saw when I first arrived at the door was still the afternoon sky, why is it more than two o'clock in the middle of the night as soon as I enter the house?" I asked, "Dad, are you really on the road all the time?" Didn't go somewhere to fool around? ”
After listening to my words, my dad blew his beard angrily: "Little rabbit, do you think your dad is the kind of person who fools around?" I pondered, "yes, as far as I know, my dad isn't the kind of person who doesn't come home in the middle of the night, but?" ”
I continued, "Then tell me about your journey on the road." Hearing me ask, my dad was slightly stunned and said: "As soon as I came out of you, I was ready to go home directly, but I just rode more than a mile, and the wind actually rose, and the sand and gravel on the ground flew all over the sky, but the sun in the sky was red and dazzling, not the windy weather, but it was strange to say, it was only two minutes from the wind to the stop, and it did not delay my trip." I followed the trail all the way on, but the sun never set until I had just returned home. ”
After listening to his story, I was shocked and hurriedly asked, "You say, the sun has not set?" "That's right", hearing me ask, my dad also reacted, and his face changed suddenly, "It can't be some kind of demon or monster, right?" I nodded and said in a deep voice, "Nine times out of ten." Hearing this, he was shocked and said, "What should I do then?" "Seeing my dad's appearance, I suddenly wanted to laugh, don't look at his five big and three rough, in fact, he is less bold than me. I smiled and said, "Since he didn't hurt you, he shouldn't be fine, maybe it was just an accident." ”
Seeing what he was going to say, I hurriedly waved my hand: "Dad, you should go and rest in the middle of the night, and besides, you still have to think about how to explain it to my mother." My dad suddenly realized and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, this matter is the most important thing." With that, he hurriedly ran towards the bedroom.
I was sitting on the sofa, frowning, about to light a cigarette, but I heard the sound of someone approaching from behind, I looked at it accurately, and found Situ Yu, she looked at me with a frown, and whispered: "Is that kind of thing?" I nodded and didn't speak. Her face changed: "Then what to do." ”
I chuckled: "What's the hurry, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and the people who should come will always come." However, in the middle of the night, it is time for us to go to bed. I looked at her graceful figure under her pajamas, smiled wickedly, her face suddenly turned red, and whispered, "Rascal." ”
I laughed out loud and led the way into the bedroom, giving her a defiant look as I entered. She bit her lip and walked in, followed by her exclamation from the bedroom. Sleepless all night, of course, except for touching and hugging, we did not break through the last line of defense.
Early the next morning, my parents hadn't woken up yet, so I said to Situ Yu and rode a motorcycle to go back to the courtyard, after all, there were quite a lot of things going on today.
Back in the yard, looking at the confetti all over the ground, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, the paper burned when I went to the grave yesterday was not cleaned up, and the confetti was blowing everywhere after the wind last night. I've taken a broom, and the broom here is a relatively large broom, and it's a little difficult for ordinary people to hold it with both hands, but after all, I'm a cultivator, so it's quite easy to use.
It took about half an hour to clean the whole yard, and as I passed by my uncle's grave, I stumbled upon a gap in the grave, as if someone had dug up a piece of soil from it, and I didn't care, maybe it was blown away by the wind last night.
I went into the living room and got ready to clean the whole house, after all, I was going to live here for at least a few months, and if it was dusty, who would be able to stand it. The house has three floors, with an area of about 200 square meters, which is a relatively large courtyard in this small county, if it weren't for my uncle, this house is estimated to be sold for two or three million, but then I gave my dad more than two or three million in the card.
It took about two or three hours for me to clean the whole house from the inside out, from top to bottom, and I felt a little proud to see the new house, if not looking at the garbage next to it, of course. There was only one bed in most of the three floors, and the cabinets were empty, some of which had even been pierced by rats. It is worth mentioning that I found that there was a small pinch of loess at the door of the three-story house, and the door of the small house could not be opened at all, and there was no place to lock it, which made people feel as if the door was embedded in the wall.
After thinking about it again, I still didn't destroy the door, not because I didn't want to, but because the time was not enough, although I came here to investigate my uncle's previous movements, but if I could not destroy it, I still don't want to make any extraneous branches, for some reason, after I moved in, I always felt that my heart was beating much faster than before.
Throwing out a lot of garbage, I returned to the living room, collapsed on the sofa, and rested for a while, after all, I got up so early in the morning, but it backfired, I just closed my eyes for a few minutes, and I heard the sound of rustling from upstairs, and the vigilance I had developed these days immediately came in handy, I stood up and walked upstairs empty-handed, and there were no weapons around me, and the baton was handed over to Zhang Weiguo when I left, and the book of heaven was also collected by me, and I summoned it when I needed it.
On the first floor, there is nothing, and the sound of rustling continues; On the second floor, there was still nothing, but I felt that the sound of rustling was clearer, to the sound of someone moving things, I slowed down, leaned against the wall, and slowly went up to the third floor, the expected figure did not appear, there was nothing on the third floor, but the sound of rustling became louder and louder, I walked along the corridor, and came to the door without a lock, the sound of rustling came from inside, is there someone inside?
I mustered my courage and knocked on the door: "Is there anyone inside?" I didn't hear anyone's answer, and I was relieved, just = yes, how can there be people living here.
Suddenly, an excited male voice came: "Yes, someone, hurry, come and save me!" "My mother, when I heard this, I was immediately so scared that I almost jumped up, one second I just relaxed my vigilance, and the next second I was so surprised, do you know that people will be scared to death.
However, I suddenly realized something, and I asked him, "Who are you and how did you get in." I heard his helpless voice: "I don't know how I got in, I slept at home, I didn't expect to wake up here, as for the name, you can call me Palaiti."
"Palaiti? Are you from Xinjiang? I asked. Well. Hearing his affirmative answer, I couldn't help but wonder why the people of Xinjiang are here. We're in the coastal area of China. Seeing that I was still asking him what he meant, he hurriedly spoke: "Save me, let me out first, I'm dying of hunger here." ”
I touched my head and said, "I can't save you, there is no chain outside the door, it looks like it is embedded in the door, how can I save you." Inside the door came Palaiti's wail: "What shall I do, am I going to starve to death here?" ”
I ignored his wailing and said, "Hold on a little longer, I'll see if there's a way." After saying that, he ignored his cries and went straight downstairs. In fact, if you really want to save her, it's not impossible, just find a hammer to smash the door, but what he said is a little mysterious, and for a while I couldn't believe the truth of what he said, so I deliberately delayed time, anyway, he has been in it for so long, and it should be fine if he stays for a few more days.
Hearing the sound of me clanging down the stairs, Palaiti inside the door was full of gloomy face, and I saw him sitting cross-legged on the ground, muttering that he didn't know what he was muttering, and suddenly, his whole body turned into a black mist, which suddenly disappeared from the room, and a gust of wind blew, and the small pile of loess outside the door was blown away.
I went downstairs and sat in the living room, thinking about Palaiti all the time, and always feeling that his presence had some inexplicable connection with my arrival. I sat on the sofa and thought, and didn't notice that a shadow behind me was slowly condensing, and suddenly I felt the Soul Devouring Book in my body tremble, and it automatically floated out of my body in the air, facing behind me, I was a little puzzled, so I turned my head to look behind me, but I didn't see anything, and the previous shadow disappeared when the Book of Heaven came out.
On the hill behind the small courtyard, Palaiti suddenly appeared, his face was gloomy, if it hadn't been for the sudden appearance of a strange book, he would have successfully attacked him. Palaiti sat on the ground, occasionally glancing at the foot of the mountain, and looked at him not as if he were on alert, but as if waiting for someone. "Why the fuck that dead old woman hasn't come yet, it's fucking ink." Palaiti cursed in pieces.
As soon as the words fell, suddenly two fangs more than ten centimeters long fell on his neck, and then a woman's cold voice came: "You try to say one more thing." ”
Palaiti snorted lightly, stretched out his hand and slapped the two fangs open, and there was a clanging sound of metal colliding, and then he spoke: "Why are you so ink, when has this been, Liu Zaibin's nephew has returned." The woman spoke, and said, "What about coming back, I have already met him before, but he is just a little ant in the foundation building period." ”
If I were there, I would have been shocked that Liu Zaibin was my uncle's name, and that woman was the old lady who was sitting next to Situ Yu on the plane before. Palaiti continued: "Then what shall we do now, I see that he has come to investigate the deeds of his uncle. He paused and continued: "Before, I set up a small phantom array to trick him home, and searched the entire courtyard for a long time, but I didn't find that thing. ”
The woman Bai Jie frowned and said, "All the places have been searched?" Are you sure? Palaiti thought for a moment and returned: "It seems that Liu Zaibin's grave has not been searched, but you also know who Liu Zaibin was before his death, and I don't dare to touch his tomb casually." Bai Jie frowned, pondered for a while, and said, "In that case, let's arrest him first, maybe we can ask for something from him." ”
......
In the middle of the night, I lay on the bed and practiced the exercises in the Book of Heaven, I have to say, the Book of Heaven is worthy of being a thing in the big world, and the tricks in it are so wonderful, the more I practice, the more I feel that my body is getting stronger and stronger, if the white bone in the school before can finish abusing me, now I can finish abusing him. I guided the True Qi to flow in the meridians, and when I was about to complete a week, suddenly there was a loud noise at the door, interrupting my cultivation, and the originally peaceful True Qi suddenly became chaotic and rampaged through my meridians.
"Poof," I spat on the wall with a mouthful of blood, but fortunately, with the protection of the Book of Heaven, I was not hurt much. I stood up and was about to go to the door to check on the situation, when suddenly a strong wind came and I felt a palm on my chest.
