Chapter 974: The Partition Wall Has Ears
It is estimated that Di Baoquan also heard from the man that there was a Shaanxi man at the foot of the mountain, so he only showed this suspicious look now.
Everyone in the industry knows that Lao Zuo's sect is in Sichuan, and his ancestral home is in Shandong, so he can speak Sichuan dialect and Shandong dialect, but he should not be able to speak Shaanxi dialect.
In fact, I also wondered where Lao Zuo's Shaanxi accent came from, I hadn't heard that he had an extraordinary talent in learning dialects before.
When the man was about to reach the foot of the mountain, he beckoned a few young people who were leaning on the entrance of the village to watch, and they surrounded the car like a swarm of bees, and each of them carried the car directly into the village with a lot of strength.
As I had reckoned, the men did not dare to put the cart too close to the entrance of the village, and they carried it to the cemetery in a fit of breath, took some hay, and covered it.
Lao Zuo pretended to be puzzled and asked the man why he covered the car, and the man said with a smile that this is the rule in the village, and the car outside must be covered when it comes in.
Lao Zuo's expression will be suspicious.
These people not only helped us carry the car, but also cleaned up a yard near the entrance of the village, so that Lao Zuo and I could live in.
Lao Zuo pretended to be polite and wanted to be polite, but the Chinese characters said that we were guests when we entered the village, and we must be treated well and let us live in peace.
Thinking about it, Di Baoquan was worried that the person he saw was very likely to be Lao Zuo, after all, the ghost market in Jisoul Village was the main source of income for the corpse keepers, and Di Baoquan had to take care of Lao Zuo, the big financier, no matter what.
The houses in this place are relatively simple, and the man closed the door for us after leaving, but there is a gap of three or four centimeters between the bottom of the door and the ground, through which I can still see the scene outside.
As soon as the man closed the door, a few young people got into the firewood stacks around the house, and some people jumped directly onto the roof.
I guess the kid who went to the room was not a soul charmer, his movements were very stupid, and he made a lot of noise when he went to the room.
Lao Zuo immediately shouted: "This house is about to collapse or what, why is there still a commotion above your head." ”
I saw the man who had just closed the door for us waving his hand to the roof, and the young man who had just jumped into the room hurried down.
Only when his feet were on his feet did I pretend to walk out of the room and glance up at the roof.
The man shouted at me from afar: "The cats in the village are fat, and they panic when they jump on the roof." ”
I smiled and went inside without saying anything.
Now that the wall has ears, I have something in my heart, but I can't say it to Lao Zuo.
Lao Zuo opened his backpack, took out a spirit talisman from the bag, and threw his hand and stuck it on the door panel.
When the talisman and the door panel were solid, Lao Zuo said, "The soundproof note of the thick painting." ”
I didn't expect Liang Houzai to have this kind of thing in his hand.
I first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Lao Zuo: "Di Baoquan seems to recognize you." ”
Lao Zuo smiled: "I understand Di Baoquan's temperament, even if he sees me, he doesn't dare to determine my identity, you wait, he will definitely come to us tonight, and he is alone, secretly." ”
"Do you have any plans to reveal your identity?"
"While there is still some time this afternoon, we have to explore the situation in the village first, and if the conditions allow, we will show our identities, and if the conditions do not allow it, then we will talk about it."
I said, "Where did you learn your Shaanxi dialect?" ”
Lao Zuo smiled at me: "My Shaanxi dialect is Shandong dialect with a bit of Shaanxi pronunciation." Shaanxi is the same as Shandong, and the dialects of each region are somewhat different, even if my Shaanxi dialect is not authentic, the other party will think that I am from other counties and cities. ”
I smiled and shook my head, "You're better than a ghost." ”
"If you don't do it, the rivers and lakes are sinister, if you don't be shrewd, sooner or later you will fall into someone else's way."
"Yes."
I didn't sleep well last night, and it just so happened that there was nothing wrong right now, so I leaned on the kang and took a nap with my eyes closed.
At about twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Lao Zuo woke me up, and then he quickly came to the door of the house and removed the soundproof note on the door.
As soon as Lao Zuo returned to the kang, someone knocked on the door.
It was the sturdy man in his thirties again, and he was standing outside the door, knocking on the door again and again, not heavy or frequent, as if he were afraid of disturbing us.
After he knocked for a while, Lao Zuo answered: "Who?" ”
The man responded: "The village chief invites you to eat in the compound." ”
Chief?
Isn't the head of this village Di Baoquan? It seems that he wants to confirm Lao Zuo's identity now.
Lao Zuo's face tightened, and he responded after a while: "Oh, let's not go, we have been on the road all night, and we are very sleepy, so let's rest first, and we will receive it warmly, thank you." ”
The man didn't talk nonsense, and responded: "Then you can rest well." And left.
Lao Zuo pasted the soundproofing note again.
I said, "What's the situation?" Didn't you say that Di Baoquan would come to you alone at night? ”
Lao Zuo frowned: "With his temperament, it is impossible to invite us to dinner in public." ”
"Why?"
"Di Baoquan has two completely different faces on weekdays, he always behaves very off-line in front of outsiders, he is all lost, he looks so-so, and he has no scheming at all. But within the corpse cultivator lineage, he is extremely vicious and ruthless, and even the people around him are very afraid of him. And I've heard that Di Baoquan is actually a very face-loving person. He won't be respectful to us in front of his disciples and grandchildren. ”
Di Baoquan is vicious and ruthless towards the people, which is probably the reason why the Shaozhuang faction wants to rise up and resist.
They rebelled against Di Baoquan, that was their own business, I don't care, but now that they are involved with Buzhou Mountain, they can't blame us for interfering with each other.
I said, "But if he is sure that you are Zuo Youdao, he will still be respectful to you regardless of whether the disciples are present or not." ”
Lao Zuo unconsciously trembled the corners of his eyebrows: "So he will never invite us to dinner in front of his disciples." Well, there's definitely something strange here. ”
I couldn't help but be helpless: "But if we don't go out, we won't be able to find out the truth in the village." ”
Lao Zuo also looked bored, he hugged his hands together and didn't speak sullenly.
In fact, both of us are too worried, even if the two of us don't go out, we can still find out about the corpse keeper's lineage.
Here Lao Zuo and I were still thinking about what to do next, and a few young corpse keepers who hid outside the house to monitor me and Lao Zuo couldn't hold it back.
After all, these people are not spies, and if you let them stay in the woodstack for hours without talking or moving, they will not be able to bear the loneliness.
I heard one of them say: "It's been more than four hours, and these two have slept really well, and they don't make any sound at all." ”
Someone answered: "You say, is that big man really Zuo Youdao?" ”
"I don't think so, don't they all say that Zuo Youdao is more than two meters tall, and his arms are thicker than a man's waist, that person must not be two meters, and his arms are not so thick."
"Yes, yes, I also heard that there are two horns on Zuo Youdao's head, just like a cow, and every time you go out, you have to wear a big hat to cover it."
"Nonsense guys, let me tell you, what you heard are all fake, I have seen Zuo Youdao with my own eyes, he is about 1.7 meters tall, very thin, but there is a bright iron light all over his body, good guy, that body is the same as iron......"
Listening to people outside talk about Lao Zuo like this, I had to use the greatest strength to hold back my laughter, and Lao Zuo was also helpless.
I have to say that Lao Zuo's fame in the industry is indeed too great, plus he is the kind of person who lives in a simple place, everyone in the industry has seen his appearance, it is estimated that many people have all kinds of imaginations about Lao Zuo's appearance, and they want to be crooked when they think about it.
The next thing these people said was not so funny.
I heard someone say, "Tell me, why is our master so afraid of Zuo Youdao?" ”
The person who took the stubble said, "Isn't it because of the golden armor corpse?" ”
"Golden armor corpse? Isn't our golden armor corpse gone, and this one that the door master has refined again? ”
"How can the golden armor corpse be so easy to refine, but I heard that our sect master got an ancient corpse in the first few years, the texture of the corpse is quite good, and it is very likely to be refined into golden armor, but the origin of this ancient corpse is not correct, Zuo Youdao is not the corpse Dao Sect, if he knows that there is a problem with this ancient corpse, he will definitely have to rush to the door to suppress the corpse."
"No, how did I hear that the ancient corpse was brought by the eldest brother, and now the owner of the door has always wanted the eldest brother to hand over the corpse, but the eldest brother just refuses to give it, last year the eldest brother was punished in the barren mountain and thought about it, just because of this. But until now, he still hasn't handed over the ancient corpse. ”
"Yes, yes, I've heard about that. To tell the truth, if I were the eldest brother, I wouldn't hand it over, the eldest brother's power has become more and more powerful in recent years, and the door owner has long looked at him unpleasantly, but fortunately, there is such an ancient corpse in his hand, and the door owner wants to know the whereabouts of the corpse, so he has never dared to be ruthless to the eldest brother. ”
"I also think that the master of the door has gone too far over the years, but as long as he leaves a little leeway, the eldest brother will not be so against him."
The "big brother" in these mouths must be the leader of the Shaozhuang faction.
The point is that they just called "big brother" one by one, and they didn't say what this person's real name was.
Then these people talked about some inconsequential things, such as Di Da Dan peeking at Xiao Er Ya taking a bath last night, and Di Lao San owed someone money that he didn't pay back, and it was these things that made Lao Zuo and me annoyed.
I didn't feel like I could hear any useful information, and it was lunch time, and there were no pedestrians around the house, so I asked Lao Zuo: "Do it?" ”
Lao Zuo took two seconds to think, and then nodded: "Do it." ”
I immediately took out the phone and contacted Zhangdonghai, 30 kilometers away, and asked him to bring a few brothers with lively brains who could speak Shaanxi dialect.
As soon as the phone hung up, Lao Zuo and I opened the door and went out of the house as quickly as possible, and went straight to Chai Hedu.
