When we took the car back to the village, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and Lao Hu's breath had continued to weaken since this morning, and when we entered the courtyard of the old house, he was completely lifeless, and his body was decaying at an unimaginable rate, and in just one day, corpse spots had appeared on his neck.

Du Kang suggested that Lao Hu's body should be buried as soon as possible, because under the current conditions, cremation would definitely be impossible, and the body could only be buried intact.

I don't plan to place Lao Hu in the ancient mound, if the river at the foot of the mountain is not blocked, the hill where the ancient mound is located is also a rare good hole, but now the river is broken, and the bottom of the river is dry and impermeable, the old mound of the Hu family has long become a fierce mound.

After discussing with Du Kang, we finally dug a pit deep in the mountains and forests west of the village, buried Lao Hu in it, and simply erected a tombstone.

When digging the pit, the first shovel of soil was dug up by Du Kang, and when the grave was filled, the last shovel of soil was dropped by me.

Du Kang and I are Lao Hu's always, Du Kang started his catastrophe, and I, I want to fulfill his last wish.

When the new grave was finished, Wu Lin and they were still there, I held a sapper shovel in my left hand, looked up at the night sky at the top of the woods, and let out a long breath of turbidity. The dead branches of winter joined me into a huge vein above my head, and the night covered it like a black cloth, enveloping the whole forest, and me in the forest.

Du Kang asked me, "What are you thinking?" ”

I sighed, lowered my head, looked at Lao Hu's grave, and said, "If I had known Lao Hu earlier, I would never have let him get to where he is today." ”

Du Kang shook his head: "This is his life, no one can save him except himself." ”

I folded the sapper shovel and inserted it into the side pocket of my backpack, and without saying a word, I beckoned to Li Huaishan, and walked out of the forest sullenly.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, a pickup truck with a box with high beams turned on entered the entrance of the village, and I stood at the door of the old house, and I could clearly see that the two bright car lights illuminated the wooden buildings on the small half of the village road, and the village road was also illuminated, and there was a long shadow of the building on it.

Du Kang put the three flying locust stones in his pocket, came over to me and asked, "Song Tiefu, can they be fooled?" ”

I pouted, "It's up to luck." ”

After speaking, I turned to Li Huaishan again and asked, "Is the car hidden?" ”

Li Huaishan gave a thumbs up: "It's proper." ”

When I returned to the village tonight, I was still thinking about how to hide our car, when Li Huaishan said that as long as we drove the car to the field, took a few straw mats, and wrapped them around the car, and when it was late at night, I couldn't see what it was when I was far away.

Hopefully he didn't say much.

Watching the pickup truck slowly drive into the village, I also sweated in my heart, according to my previous agreement with Wu Lin, he shouldn't have entered the village so quickly, could it be that my plan was seen through by Song Tiefu and Bi Kun? Or, isn't the person driving the car now Wu Lin?

After the car entered the village, it drove to the vicinity of the Mountain Dragon Temple, after that, the high beams were replaced by low beams, two huge light points pressed on the road, the car turned around with difficulty in the village, and the lights also followed the ground and slowly turned due north.

Wu Lin finally drove the car out of the village, and next, he should take a few laps around the mountain forest.

We could no longer lean against the wall and watch, so we leaned down and hid in the shadows under the courtyard wall.

Du Kang bent over and cautiously took two steps towards me, and I felt as if he had something to say, so I turned my gaze to him.

After he pressed half of his body over, he spoke: "It's really not quite right. ”

I didn't react for a while: "What's wrong?" ”

Du Kang deliberately suppressed his voice: "When the car drove into the village, I found that many people were hiding behind the windows and looking at the road, but only the people in the old wooden building did not appear. ”

As soon as he said that, I understood.

The wooden building in Du Kang's mouth is the building opposite Lao Hu's house.

I thought about it for a moment and said, "The madman's thoughts are probably different from normal people, and even if he doesn't come out to look, maybe it's reasonable." ”

Although I said so, but I feel awkward in my heart, it is said that crazy people are more sensitive than ordinary people, driving on the village road in the middle of the night, the movement is not small, unless he is tied to the bed by the family, otherwise, he should run to the window to see.

Du Kang's words confirmed that his thoughts were the same as mine: "Crazy people are more sensitive than ordinary people. ”

I pouted: "There's no point in talking about this now, let's think about what is in front of you first." ”

Du Kang just nodded and didn't say anything more.

I listened carefully to the movement of the pickup truck, it first turned around the outer mountains and forests a few times, and finally the sound of the engine turned off near the entrance of the village, Du Kang slowly straightened up, looked out of the house for a while, and suddenly said: "The troops are divided!" ”

I suddenly felt a burst of excitement in my heart, and I also stood up to watch, and saw that the people in the pickup truck had already walked up the village road on foot, and the two of them went in the direction of the ancient mound, and the remaining one went straight to our side.

From the point of view of physique, the people who marched in the direction of the ancient mound were relatively young, while the people who came to the old mansion were a little rickety and looked very old.

Just when Du Kang and I watched on the road to the village, there was a door lamp in front of a wooden building, which was dyed orange on the dark road, and the people in the building did not come out, the lights were so lonely and on, when Wu Lin walked through the light area, although it was too far away, I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could still recognize his back at a glance, presumably, the person walking in front of him at this time was Bi Kun.

When Wu Lin was about to cross the area illuminated by the lights, the door of the wooden building was suddenly pushed open, Bi Kun quickly glanced at the door, and Wu Lin stopped directly.

An old man who couldn't see clearly leaned against the door, talking to Wu Lin, I couldn't hear the content of their conversation, I only saw Wu Lin gesturing something with his hand, at the same time, Bi Kun slowly moved his steps, and his whole figure was hidden in the darkness that could not be illuminated by the light, and then, he quickened his pace again, and rushed towards the mountain where the ancient mound was located like a gust of wind.

I'm in a hurry, if Wu Lin doesn't hurry up and follow, Bi Kun is very likely to open the ancient mound first!

But Wu Lin didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, he was still talking to the old man at the door of the building, and after about a minute, the old man retreated into the house and turned off the door light. Only then did Wu Lin let go of his footsteps and chased in the direction that Bi Kun left.

Fortunately, Wu Lin didn't delay for long, and in just one minute, Bi Kun shouldn't be able to open the ancient mound.

Song Tiefu is still some distance away from us now, Du Kang lowered his voice and said to me: "If you want to take down Song Tiefu alone, it's best to fight with him in close combat." ”

I didn't give any response to that.

Du Kang is right, I really want to capture Song Tiefu by myself, Du Kang's cultivation is higher than mine, and his reputation in the industry is not comparable to me, if he shoots with me, even if he doesn't have much strength, the final credit will always be his. After all, no one would believe that a recruit like me, who has just been in the industry for two years, can suppress a long-established master like Song Tiefu.

Seeing that I didn't respond for a long time, Du Kang spoke again: "Although Song Tiefu is not good at actual combat, I heard that his fists and feet are also quite powerful, you better be careful." ”

I still couldn't ignore his kind reminder, so I could only nod silently.

Under the moonlight, Song Tiefu's shadow was getting closer and closer to the old house, Du Kang took Li Huaishan to hide in a small room on the south side of the courtyard, I shrank and hid myself in the shadow of the courtyard wall, behind me was a withered old tree, from this position to the door of the house, only about five meters away, very conducive to ambush.

Soon, the sound of Song Tiefu's footsteps has reached my ears, the step is not light, but the force is long, every step forward, the distance between Song Tiefu and the courtyard gate will be shortened by more than one meter.

My heart fluttered rapidly when he was still ten meters away from the door, but the tension only appeared for a brief moment, and after that, my heart was extremely quiet.

After a month and a half of practical training, I am now proficient in controlling my state of mind.

The moment he walked to the gate of the courtyard, Song Tiefu seemed to hesitate, his footsteps stopped abruptly, and then he stood silently on the other side of the threshold, suppressing his breathing, as if listening to the movement in the courtyard.

I had hidden my breath, but I was still afraid of being exposed, so I kept my breathing so low that in the silence of the night, I could barely hear my own wheezing or heartbeat.

After a moment of hesitation, Song Tiefu took a breath and stepped one foot over the threshold.

I stared intently at the moonlight shining in along the door frame, and Song Tiefu's shadow was stretched long by this light, like a stretched black kraft candy, along the threshold, all the way to the old house in the distance.

He stepped on the shadow of the sole of his foot on the ground, but the other foot did not step forward for a long time, I pressed my heart, looked at that foot with a facial expression, but the qi and blood in my body were mobilized in an instant.

In the end, Song Tiefu didn't notice the problem, and crossed the threshold with his other foot and his entire body.

I didn't give him a chance to stand firm, and immediately cast the Tengyun Step, and in an instant, I arrived in front of him in a flash, and at the same time urged out the shock, aiming at his Heavenly Spirit Gai is palm.

Song Tiefu's reaction speed was even faster than I expected, and the moment I straightened my arm, he jerked sideways and stepped forward, avoiding my palm blow.
