Chapter 266: Smooth Hide

Chinese The survival of Jinpen Township is closely related to its own safety? This reminds me of the fact that Cao Nan got a gong before, I thought it was a coincidence at first, but slowly I found out that it was not a coincidence at all, but the result of a bureau, a joint effort.

The gong on that side is the ancestral side of the Cao family, and the Zongji Office asked us to choose a magic weapon, and Cao Nan was so good that he didn't die, so he picked the gong.

If it's pure luck, I don't believe it. The Zong Inquisition Office must have known the importance of the Gong and deliberately returned him to Cao Nan.

And after getting the gong, there are people or beings in all directions who tell us that the gong must be sounded at night in Jinpen Township, so as to make Jinpen Township peaceful.

There are Chen Laogen, Three-Eyed Spirit Owl, Grandma Cao, etc., these are all explicit, and some are secret prompts.

In short, they all regard the safety of Jinpen Township as extremely important. So much so that although there are many strange things in Jinpen Township so far, there is only one person who has been killed by ghosts and evil spirits, and there is only one Feng Deliang, which is simply a miracle.

After thinking about it, I asked

"Then the third uncle, didn't they suspect you?" One of the people that grandpa trusts the most is me and the other is the third uncle, but anyone with a little brain can understand that they want to track down grandpa, how can they let go of the third uncle?

"What do you say?" The third uncle smiled bitterly and said

"I don't know what the specific reason is, whether it is people or ghosts, they dare not easily harm people in Jinpen Township, although they suspect me, they do not be cruel to me; Instead, I tried it repeatedly, and I had all kinds of means, all of which I saw through and avoided it, but only your aunt ......" I grew my mouth and immediately reacted.

The silver-eyed mandrill behind my aunt didn't lie on my stomach for no reason, but had an obvious purpose.

Test! If the third uncle knocks out the silver-eyed mandrill on his aunt's back, the third uncle will immediately reveal the stuffing, because only those who practice the Dharma can see the yin-yang mandrill lying on the person's back.

But if the third uncle doesn't fight, he will suffer the aunt, who has been sick for three years, hot and cold, and tortured.

This kind of temptation can be described as extremely devastating, the third uncle either exposes himself, or watches his aunt being tortured, but instead pretends to know nothing, and takes his aunt everywhere to find a doctor to see a doctor, doing useless work, in order to dispel the suspicion of the tempter.

What a long and brutal ordeal was this? The aunt suffered, and the third uncle was even more uncomfortable, because the aunt's body was getting weaker day by day, and she might die one day.

Can...... There are pros and cons, although the test is cruel, but once the third uncle withstands it, he can immediately clear his suspicions.

I have never doubted the third uncle, and it is because of this. The third uncle is the closest person to my grandfather besides me, and subconsciously, I have thought of the image of the third uncle countless times, but when I think of the suffering of my aunt, I instantly excluded him.

So at first glance, the insect controller turned out to be the third uncle, and we were so shocked.

"I'm sorry aunt." I said. The third uncle sighed,

"After all, Dharma practice is a act, and perhaps it is the price to pay for stepping into it." After hearing this, I couldn't calm down for a long time.

What is that dusty secret, and what big mistake did grandpa make? So that things have developed to the current situation?

The most important thing is that the current situation has obviously slowly departed from Grandpa's prediction and slipped into a direction that does not know what the future holds.

Grandpa is a human after all, not a god, and he can't predict everything. Even his own reaction seems to be underestimated, he has borrowed the power of many aspects, and at the same time, there are forces from all sides that are constantly pushing him forward, unable to stop.

And this ...... may be the fundamental reason why he is still safe and sound, and even the King Lu and the Ghost King he offended did not go to Jinpen Township to take revenge on him.

"Xiao Lei, you have to remember that where your shop is located is the core of the Jinpen Township Thunderstorm Array. You must protect the store, no matter how much money others pay, no matter how many excuses they make, you must not give the store to others, this is important! The third uncle suddenly said solemnly to me.

"What?" I was shocked to find that my shop was the heart of the Thunderstorm Circle.

"Don't you think there's something wrong with your shop?" The third uncle smiled slightly. The electric light volcano in my mind nodded slowly, except for Lu Ningxiang, my shop has never been ghostly.

The scorched corpse monsters stayed outside, not daring to enter the door, and the impermanence of the underworld, also wandering outside, not daring to kick the door into the house to detain my soul, but at that time, even Lu Ningxiang avoided them.

At that time, if they kicked the door, they would not have any ability to resist at all, and I am afraid that Hell will have one more tormented soul.

I always thought it was because of Lu Ningxiang, but now that I look at it, it's not, at least not entirely.

And this reminds me of the scene when I bought a store. The person who sold the shop was a descendant of a family of educated youths in the township, and he wanted to move to the city, so he put up big-character posters for sale.

At that time, there were many people who wanted to buy, and some of them were stronger than themselves, and they only had enough money to buy half of the store in their pockets.

But then, I don't know what happened, the family was willing to accept the credit and let me pay half of it, and the remaining half was paid in annual installments.

In this way, the shop unexpectedly fell into my name, which made many people who were going to buy the store indignant at the time, because they paid in full and offered more than me.

I used to think that it should be the family's good, but now, it is clear that this is deliberate, and there is a force that secretly interferes with that transaction.

I can't help but wonder if Feng Deliang sent me the coffin containing Lu Ningxiang, would it have anything to do with the core of the magic circle?

He wanted to use Lu Ningxiang to activate the thunderstorm array to get himself through the catastrophe? But he failed, so he was killed the next day.

The core of the circle is definitely a forbidden place, and once it is broken into by something inaccessible, it will inevitably trigger a backlash.

And what is certain is that when Feng Deliang sent the coffin to me, he was already aware that his life would be in danger.

The motive is there, and the execution is reasonable, and this possibility seems to have a certain degree of rationality.

"The core of the thunderstorm circle not only protects your safety, but also covers the polder, so the ghost breaking into the door has never happened." The third uncle said.

I nodded, there is no doubt that after my grandfather's disappearance, the situation in Jinpen Township has changed very profoundly, and it has started three years ago.

…… After that, I chatted with the third uncle a few more words, but it didn't go into very specific details, there were some things he knew, and if necessary, he would tell himself.

Then we moved on to the coffin. The third uncle just followed his grandfather's words and robbed this thing, he didn't know what was in it and how to open the coffin.

So I had to ask

"Third uncle, where are you going to transport the coffin?" The third uncle said

"My first plan was to let the hornworm swallow it in my stomach, but the hornworm was seriously injured, and I could only carry out the second plan, which is the current result, as for the storage location, I didn't think about it, this thing is very heavy, and it is easy to attract attention if it is transported ashore."

"Then you want to sink it in the water and avoid the limelight first?" I asked.

"The current conditions can only be like this for the time being, and when the time comes, we will hide it in a safer place." The third uncle nodded.

"Hey, my family has a water tank that used to be waded through wood, although it is dilapidated, but the levee inside is still intact and suitable for sinking coffins." At this time, Cao Nan said suddenly.

My heart lit up, I have seen the water tank that Cao Nan said. A few years ago, the mountain road of Jinpen Township to transport wood out was paved with cement, and the potholes were full of potholes, and it was very inconvenient for car transportation.

Therefore, the Cao family built a water tank, and usually stored the wood that needed to be transported in the water tank, and when the river rose, they put the wood in the water tank down the river.

The upstream is released, the downstream is connected, and the transportation is completed by using the water flow. But after the road was repaired over the years, the water silo slowly lost its effect and was abandoned, after all, the water thing is ups and downs, and the upstream loses ten pieces of wood, and the downstream can pick up seven or eight of them, and the loss is too great.

The most important function of the water tank is flood control, and it is necessary to build a flood control levee to block the erosion of floodwaters; If the coffin can be placed in the water tank, it will not be afraid of the flood washing it away.

"Third uncle, how do you feel?" I asked. The third uncle nodded,

"Okay, that's it." So the third uncle turned off the engine, quietly went down the river, and entered the water warehouse of Cao Nan's house before the sky was white.

Although the inside was dilapidated, the sturdy levee was not so easy to collapse, so we rowed the boat by hand, put the coffin into the water tank, and loosened the wire rope.

The third uncle said

"Okay, the coffin is here, the ship is eye-catching, I have to drive away, you go back quickly, remember to keep it secret, you can't reveal a word, you haven't seen the coffin, and you haven't seen me." We naturally nodded, and finally got the coffin in our hands, who had enough to leak the secret?

After that, the third uncle rowed the fishing boat away, and we went around a few times after leaving the water tank before returning to our hometown. Originally, we were a little worried, afraid that if we didn't fight last night, we would cause some trouble, but when we asked, we were completely relieved to learn that last night was quiet and nothing happened.

After returning to their respective homes, I was really tired, so I slept for a while, and handed over the business to Meng Shuisheng to take care of, before going to sleep, I knocked on the side and asked the third uncle what he was doing, Meng Shuisheng said that his father got up quite late during this period of time, and when he came, his father had just gotten up.

I nodded, it seems that the third uncle has also gone back. …… I slept straight into the afternoon. In a daze, I was woken up by Meng Shuisheng, he said

"Brother Leizi, the police at the police station are looking for you!"

"Wang Jian'an?" My heart skipped a slight beat, Wang Jian'an came to the door at this time, it must be for the coffin.

Nan was supported by the Inquisition; The Sect Inquisition Office must not want the coffin to fall into the hands of the ghost clan. Seven or eight hours passed, and it was clear that the hornworm had already found results.

I immediately dressed and went downstairs, Wang Jian'an walked around the store, looking very anxious; This made me mutter, could it be that he knew what was important in the coffin?

Wang Jian'an saw me and hurriedly asked

"When did you come back?"

"We were buried in the snow when we went down the mountain, and we choked enough, and we were thrown too far, so we came back." I lied, this was confessed by the third uncle, and it must not be revealed.

"It's as simple as that?" Wang Jian'an said suspiciously.

"Or else?" As soon as I spread my hands, I can now lie without blushing and without a heartbeat.

There is no way, the necessary skills for walking the rivers and lakes, everything is written on the face, that is not called honesty, but childishness.

Wang Jian'an glanced back and forth on my face, trying to find any flaws, but he obviously failed, so I asked rhetorically

"Did you get the white coffin?"

"No, we were tricked, the coffin is not in the mouth of the hornworm at all, nor in the stomach." Wang Jian'an shook his head and said

"We suspect that the coffin should have been moved halfway, and it was by water." I was nervous, and thousands of alpacas rushed by in my heart, and they had seized the direction of the reconnaissance so quickly; Without even thinking about it, it's definitely already in action.

It is necessary to search all the boats along the river, and I hope that the third uncle will clean it up, otherwise according to the smell of us on that boat, a hound will be enough to make us exposed.

None of these people are fuel-efficient lamps! …… Cat flutter Chinese
