One day later, a group of six of us sat in a luxurious private room of a hotel in Fuping County, changed into clean clothes, took a shower and got a haircut.

"It's been a great time for everyone." Liang Ruoyi, as the captain of the entire team, picked up the wine glass in front of him and said, "I'll take a glass of wine, toast everyone!" ”

After that, the iceberg beauty drank all the red wine in the cup, and everyone hurriedly drank the wine in the cup.

"The timing of the next operation is unknown." Liang Ruoyi smacked: "Mr. Liang Dong may have to adjust a little for a while, I will return to the capital in a while, so I won't accompany you, if there is something, I will contact you as soon as possible." ”

Everyone toasted Liang Ruoyi with a glass of wine under the leadership of the seventh master, and she ate some food, then got up and left.

Without a woman, a group of big men let go in an instant, and the old clam and toad drank with a red face and a thick neck, calling him a brother and bragging.

The old monk also whispered to the seventh master, not knowing what he was talking about. I'm too lazy to join them in the conversation, there are some things that are not better than not known. I gulped down the food and ate all the oil and water I owed myself these days!

Earlier, in my room, I had already messaged the unfamiliar number and told him that he still hadn't found anything this time. He didn't reply, not knowing what he was thinking.

I had a mental struggle to quit the team, but on second thought, if I did, it would do me more harm than good, and I would probably put myself in a situation from which I could never recover. So the idea was quickly dispelled.

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest, and I talked to Su Xiao on the phone for a while, and fell asleep.

It was the best sleep I've had in these days.

When I woke up the next day, it was already nine o'clock in the morning, and I asked the waiter to learn that those people had left early, and the seventh master didn't leave anything except to help me settle the room fee.

I shrugged, took a shower, had breakfast and set off for Jinan.

The distance is not far, at more than five o'clock in the afternoon, I returned to the antique shop, saw that the second uncle was chatting happily with a person, said hello and went upstairs to put down things, the second uncle called me to introduce: "Xiaorui, this is an elder in Miao Village, and it is also my old friend, your name is Uncle Bao Weng!" ”

As I listened, I saw that this man was about fifty years old, of medium height, with a dark complexion, a conical face, two sword eyebrows full of heroism, silver ornaments hanging from his ears, and a robe with white flowers on a blue background, standing up and smiling and stretching out his hand to me.

"Hello Uncle Bao Weng!" I reached out and shook his hand.

"Bao Weng, this is my nephew Gu Rui, and it is also the single inheritance of my Gu family's generation!" The second uncle said with a smile.

"Sure enough, it's a talent! I'll just say that it's right for you kid to let him read, and it's never too late to learn your set of things! Bao Weng joked: "Just like you, you can't do anything but drink now!" ”

This Bao Weng speaks full of energy, hearty and crisp, and it seems that he is also a practitioner, but the accent is a little strange, the sound is flat and the tail is warped, I don't know the people of Miao Village, and I am not sure if it is the accent of Miao Village.

"Hey, in my life, it's good to have wine as a companion!" The second uncle asked Bao Weng to sit down: "Now that Xiaorui is back, when will we leave?" ”

"Hmm......" Bao Weng glanced at me with a smile: "Anytime!" ”

"Good! Then as soon as tomorrow, I'll call you in advance! The second uncle smiled: "You still have something, I won't keep you!" ”

Bao Weng got up to say hello to us, went out and took a car and left.

"Second uncle, where are we going?" I have a rough guess in my mind, but I can't be sure.

"Go to Ximiao." The second uncle said: "The old woman before, didn't you say that Xiu'er's predecessor was from Ximiao?" This Bao Weng is a close friend I met decades ago, when I saved his life, I haven't seen each other for many years, they are all phone contact, this time I thought of him, so I found him, took us to Ximiao Miao Village, to see if we can find some clues. ”

I nodded, with the help of my second uncle in this matter, there is great hope.

"By the way, how was your operation?" The second uncle looked at the two wounds on the back of my hand: "It looks like I'm injured again!" ”

"Alas-" I sighed, to be honest, after four operations, this trip to Jinsu Mountain was the last thing I wanted to mention. Not only was I injured, but I also had to scare me several times because I lost a finger and the dangers were in danger, which was really a terrible memory.

I'm going to give you a brief rundown.

"Well, that's fine!" The second uncle listened with relish: "Every time you act, you will grow a lot, and it will be fine slowly." By the way, today Friday, I asked Xiaoxiao to come back for dinner! ”

I nodded, and suddenly became happy: "Okay, you cook, I'll call!" ”

"Stinky boy, let me serve you when you come back!" The second uncle scolded me with a smile, turned around and went to the kitchen to clean up.

I smiled, and quickly took out my mobile phone and called Su Xiao. Ever since the two of us were together, Su Xiao has always been the only goddess in my heart, even after so many years.

When I connected the phone, Xiaoxiao just got off work, and when she heard that I was back, she was also very happy, and immediately took a taxi and rushed over.

This dinner is very warm, because next week is the Lantern Festival, so Xiaoxiao has to go to work on the weekend, and she got up early to go to work the next morning.

I hadn't slept at home for a long time, and by the time I got up and washed up and went downstairs, it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

The second uncle sat at the counter listening to Lao Guo's cross talk, drinking tea deliciously, and when he saw me coming down from upstairs, he turned his head to look at me: "Hey, wake up?" Xiaoxiao bought two dumplings in the morning, and I left two for you, and I saw that the soy milk was almost cold, so I drank it! ”

"Got it, thank you, second uncle!"

I snorted and walked to the table to eat, and the second uncle suddenly asked, "Xiaorui, I remember you told me yesterday that in Jinsu Mountain, there was a person who died on the stone pillar, what did that person look like?" ”

I was stunned, and the hand that had just peeled off the zongzi stopped in mid-air, and I lost my appetite in an instant: "Oops, you did it on purpose, right?" Didn't I tell you, that man's face is half rotten, and it is estimated that even if he doesn't die that day, he won't live for a few days! ”

"No, no, no!" The second uncle shook his head: "I didn't care when you said it yesterday, but when I thought about it when I went to bed, I realized that you said that there were a few off-white fat maggots on that person's face, right?" ”

"Smack!"

I directly slammed the zongzi on the table and nodded angrily: "Yes!" ”

"That's not because he's dying!" The second uncle leaned forward: "The off-white fat maggots, on the edge of the rotten wound, are eating the carrion for him and disinfecting it, and the excrement of the beige maggots can also make the wound reborn!" That's saving him, according to what you said, that person should have been like this many years ago, if it weren't for these maggots, he would have died a long time ago! ”

"Vomit—"

I retched, holding my gurgling stomach and looking at the zongzi on the table, the white long rice grains, all full and round, are so tempting and appetizing, but now, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a bunch of beige maggots!

"And then?" I glared at the second uncle and said.

"And then?" The second uncle was stunned: "You tell me what that person looks like?" I remember you also said that after he knew that you were a descendant of the Gu family, his reaction was a little strange? ”

I nodded, "yes!" At that time, I still wanted to ask the Seventh Master to come, but as soon as I encountered this kind of problem before, the Seventh Master said something non-important to perfunctory me, and it was better for me to find the answer myself. ”

"Hmm......" The second uncle drank all the tea in the cup: "I just think that this person is probably also an old friend of our Gu family, but I didn't remember who it was after thinking about it all night." ”

I didn't speak, but turned my head to look at the zongzi on the table, gritted my teeth, picked it up and stuffed it into my mouth!

"Hey, why is it almost the Lantern Festival, don't eat the Lantern Festival and eat zongzi!"

I was munching on my food when the door was pushed open and a girl in a bloated cropped cotton coat, sunglasses and a woolen hat walked in and stood in front of me and looked at me.

"Huh?" I didn't recognize who this person was for a while, so I quickly swallowed the zongzi in my mouth: "Beauty? Who are you looking for? Blind date or business? ”
