If I hadn't said such a thing to Li Huaishan, I probably wouldn't have realized that since I saw that since I entered the castle, my heart has been in a relatively calm state.

To be honest, I don't know how I got into this state, when I first came to this village, I was always afraid that there were too many things in my head, too many things, so I deliberately let myself relax, but after a few circles around the village, I was afraid that I would ignore the clues related to the case because of my carelessness, so I forcibly tightened my heartstrings.

First it was extremely loose, and then it was extremely tight, I guess I was probably tired later, and gradually I was too lazy to care about the tightness in my heart, and put all my energy on doing things.

In the past, the third master always told me that when I could naturally sink my mind, I would be able to touch the door of magic cultivation.

I don't know where I'm now, but if I've touched this doorway.

When Li Huaishan and I returned to Chen Laohan's house, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning, and the door of Chen Laohan's house was not closed tightly, and the wind in the night swept in front of the door, and the door panel shook slightly.

When I got to the door, there was the sound of a match being struck in the yard, followed by the sound of a cow's nose shutting out.

"Coming back?"

When I opened the door, Chen Laohan glanced at the door and asked with a smile.

He probably hadn't slept since last night, and he looked tired.

I glanced at the rhubarb lying in the corner of the courtyard, and then raised my chin to the other side of the room.

Chen Laohan understood what I meant, he smiled and said, "Boss Huang is sleeping soundly and is out of the way." ”

Only then did I speak: "Chen Dabang is also a member of Shantang?" ”

As soon as he heard this name, the brilliance in Old Man Chen's eyes suddenly dimmed, he spat out a long puff of smoke, and then shook his head: "He is from the Chen family, but not from Shantang." You guys...... See him? ”

I said, "We have not only met Chen Dabang, but also Widow Wang. ”

Chen Laohan just let out a sullen "um" and stopped talking.

He didn't want to say, and I wasn't going to ask, I hadn't eaten for a day, and I felt my belly almost touching my back, so I walked quickly to the house, intending to get something out of the kitchen first.

When I was about to step through the door with my front foot, Chen Laohan suddenly asked, "How is he?" ”

I stopped and turned to look at Chen Laohan: "Are you talking about Chen Dabang?" ”

Chen Laohan spat out a puff of smoke and did not respond.

I couldn't help frowning, but I still said, "He's alive and well now." ”

Chen Laohan also spoke: "How long can he live?" ”

I said truthfully: "I don't care about Chen Dabang's affairs, whether he can survive or not, and how long he can live, depends on how deep the sins he has created." ”

Chen Laohan flipped the cigarette stick, knocked off the tobacco leaves in the cigarette pot, and then lowered his head, as if in deep thought.

To be honest, I don't really like to stay with Chen Laohan, when I see him, my heart is like pressing a stone, and I often feel like I can't breathe.

After waiting in place for a while, I saw that Chen Laohan really had nothing to say, so I quickly entered the house.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw a large pot of boiled meat on the table, and there was an old manuscript book near the meat basin.

At this time, Chen Laohan's shout came from the courtyard again: "As soon as Rhubarb leaves, I will follow Boss Huang's car out of the village, and leave the things to you first, I don't care if the rest is successful or not." ”

Li Huaishan and I glanced at each other, Li Huaishan frowned, then stood up again and took the book in my hand.

After a while, Chen Laohan shouted again: "There are steamed buns in the kitchen, enough for you to eat." ”

Li Huaishan put down the book, got up and went to the kitchen, I glanced at the old book on the table, pushed the door and went back to the yard.

Chen Laohan didn't know when he lit the cigarette pot again, and he was leaning against the courtyard wall at this time, and when he saw me go back to the courtyard, he raised his head and smiled at me: "Do you want to say that I can't leave until everything is settled?" ”

I nodded: "You really can't go." ”

Chen Laohan still smiled: "According to the rules of the industry, the transaction is not over, and I, the employer, should indeed wait in place." But I can also see that you are not a person who abides by the rules, in this case, we might as well make it convenient for each other, you are busy with yours, I will go mine, and do not interfere with each other. ”

It's convenient for each other, to put it bluntly, he will pay me in advance, and I might as well leave with him.

He dared to pay me in advance, which seemed to show that he trusted me more, but I didn't trust him.

I said to Mr. Chen, "No matter what, you can't go. ”

Chen Laohan suddenly frowned: "Why is this, I have already given you the reward, why can't you leave?" ”

I asked him, "You should know that Chen Dabang has been in contact with the people of the Funeral Sect, right?" ”

Old Man Chen's brows tightened even tighter: "Funeral Sect? Is there such a sect in the industry, why haven't I heard of it? ”

I said, "Then you should know why Chen Dabang has often brought women from other places back to the village in the past two years, right?" You should also know what will happen to those women who have Chen Dabang brought back, right? And the car that often appears near the fort, you must know that the car is coming from a big problem. ”

As I spoke, Mr. Chen was just smoking a cigarette sullenly, and he moved his eyes to the side, deliberately not looking at me.

Seeing that he refused to respond, I threw him another question: "Since I already knew that Chen Dabang had a problem, why didn't you expose him earlier?" ”

Old Man Chen slowly raised his head, spat at me, and sighed, "Before I came back, I didn't expect things to develop to this point. ”

I asked him, "When did you come back?" ”

Chen Laohan was silent for a long time, and replied: "I understand what you mean, I can't get out of the death of those women." Alas, if I had contacted Hu Nancy earlier, maybe I could have saved a life or two. ”

I stared into Chen Laohan's eyes and didn't speak.

Chen Laohan let out a cloud of mist and asked me sullenly: "What do you think I am here, am I considered an accomplice?" ”

I shook my head: "Whether it is an accomplice or not, I don't count." When the affairs of the village are dealt with, someone will come to make a conclusion about your behavior. ”

Chen Laohan nodded: "I understand, I can't leave until that person comes." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, stroked the top of Rhubarb's head and said, "It looks like I can't give you one last ride." ”

Rhubarb's neck twitched, and a short breath came out of his nose.

It can be seen that Chen Laohan and the old cow in his family have some kind of extremely deep feelings, and I forcibly took away Chen Laohan's right to transport the cow carcass out of the village, and I suddenly felt a little unhappy.

But I also know that Chen Laohan can't leave the village in advance no matter what, and he should know this in his heart.

After that, Chen Laohan kept stroking Rhubarb's head, and he didn't say anything for a long time, so I didn't have any fun staying any longer, so I turned around and went back to the house.

When I entered the house, Li Huaishan was holding a steamed bun and nibbling on it, and when I sat next to him, he quickly swallowed all the things in his mouth, leaned over and whispered to me: "Boss Huang is not normal." ”

I grabbed a steamed bun: "What's wrong?" ”

"I slept too soundly," Li Huaishan whispered: "I went to the bedroom just now to look at him, this guy slept like a dead pig, he didn't say anything when I called him by name, do you remember yesterday, last night, Boss Huang was vigilant, a little wind and grass can wake him up." ”

I took a piece of meat out of the meat bowl and asked casually, "Then what do you think, why did Boss Huang sleep so soundly?" ”

Li Huaishan still suppressed his voice: "It can't be that Chen Laohan fed him sweat medicine, right?" ”

I smiled and pointed to the meat bowl on the table: "Hurry up and eat, go to bed after eating." ”

Li Huaishan: "Do you think this pot of meat is also drugged?" ”

I just raised my chin at the meat bowl: "Eat." ”

Li Huaishan was still not at ease, just kept gnawing on steamed buns, but he didn't dare to put it into the meat basin quickly, and then probably saw that I had eaten a lot of meat but nothing happened, so he was relieved to boldly open his belly and eat it.

After eating, we hastily cleaned up the table and went back to the bedroom to rest.

As Li Huaishan said, Boss Huang slept very soundly that night, and there was a lot of movement when we went to the kang, but his breathing was still soothing and long, and he was obviously not woken up at all.

As for why Boss Huang slept so deeply, I don't dare to make a conclusion casually, but one thing is clear to me, Chen Laohan must have done something to him.

I think Chen Laohan must have thought early on that I wouldn't let him leave the village early, and at the same time, he didn't want Boss Huang to know the reason why he couldn't leave the village.

There was nothing to do overnight, and early the next morning, I took Li Huai Mountain up the Dead Man's Slope, briefly looked at the feng shui near the Dead Man's Slope, and then took advantage of the fact that it was very quiet in the surroundings to practice on the spot.

At about 11 o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Dabang carried the sack to the Dead Man's Slope, buried all the deceased with ten yin tombs, and after covering the grave, he did not leave immediately, but sat on the ground in front of the grave and recited the scriptures.

Now that I know how to chant the scriptures, what did I do earlier? The evil thoughts on the ten undead are very heavy, and Chen Dabang has no cultivation, so it is also in vain to recite such scriptures.

At that time, Li Huaishan and I were hiding in a dry forest at the top of the Dead Man's Slope, Chen Dabang's mind was all on the excess, and he didn't see us, but his every move was all watched by me and Li Huaishan.

Li Huaishan pointed at Chen Dabang, smiled mockingly, and turned his head to look at me, I shook my head, signaled Li Huaishan not to speak, and then beckoned him to go down the mountain together.

When he was about to reach the bottom of the mountain, Li Huaishan glanced back at the top of the mountain and whispered: "I have never seen a weasel give a New Year's greeting to a chicken, and he still worships so reverently." ”
