Hearing Sun Kai say this, I was even more confused: "If he hasn't been there, then where did this terracotta figurine come from?"

"That's what puzzled me too, when you described the figurines to me, I thought of this thing almost immediately, as if this thing had been lurking in my brain all along, waiting for such an opportunity to pop up." Sun Kai sighed: "After my father died, I also had a lot of questions when I sorted out his relics, such as what tombs my father had been to, and how he got these things, but unfortunately these questions were brought to the coffin by him, and even my mother didn't know."

But it doesn't matter, I think there is someone who may know the ins and outs of this terracotta figurine. ”

"Who?" I asked.

"I don't know his real name, my father calls him Xiao Wu, I call him Uncle Wu, and he was one of the people who followed my father around robbing tombs in those years. Our Sun family's pawnshop is very famous among tomb robbers, and I deal with all kinds of tomb robbers almost every day, but this Uncle Wu is really interesting, and you will feel that he is different from other tomb robbers.

Uncle Wu and my father robbed the tomb together, and I heard my father say that Uncle Wu lost an arm in order to save him, so after my father died, he made a will, asking us to give Uncle Wu a salary every month, and the amount of the salary is about twice that of the housekeeper in our pawn shop, and this salary will be maintained until Uncle Wu dies, and if Uncle Wu dies, the funeral expenses will also be paid by our Sun family.

At first, I didn't understand my father's will, after all, Uncle Wu is an outsider, even if he has a life-saving grace for my father, but I heard that my father gave him millions as compensation after he came back with Uncle Wu, and millions to buy an arm, which is enough. The person who died in the loss of contact with Malaysia Airlines was only accompanied by so much money.

But then I saw Uncle Wu and understood that Uncle Wu had always been single in his life, without a daughter-in-law and no children, and he was lonely. After breaking his arm, he basically lost his source of livelihood, so he relied on the little money my father gave him to sit on the empty mountain, so my father made such a strange will.

It's just that this Uncle Wu acts strangely on weekdays, comes and goes without a trace, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find him, and he will only visit him on the day when he receives his salary every month. is a mysterious person. ”

The calendar on Sun Kai's mobile phone: "Tomorrow night is the day when Uncle Wu comes to me to receive his salary, why don't you meet this Uncle Wu with me." ”

I nodded, "Okay." ”

"Maybe he'll know something about this terracotta figurine."

The next night. I went to find Sun Kai, and after the pawn shop closed, Sun Kai soaked a pot of good West Lake Longjing, sat in his empty pawn shop, and waited for Uncle Wu to appear.

I sat next to Sun Kai, but I didn't see this Uncle Wu appear, and I couldn't help but get frizzy: "Shouldn't he be coming?" ”

Sun Kai shook his head: "No, he will definitely come." It's just that the time hasn't come yet. ”

After midnight, suddenly I only heard a bang, and the door of the Sun family's pawn shop suddenly opened with a howling wind, and by the dim light at the door, my figure appeared at the gate of the pawn shop, and then a person walked in. A man of thin stature and gloomy expression, with a hooked nose and miserable white skin, as if he had just crawled out of a coffin.

He approached us, and he smelled of rot as well.

"Where's the money?" This Uncle Wu didn't be polite to us either. As soon as you enter the door, you reach out and ask for money.

Sun Kai respectfully handed over an envelope: "Uncle Wu, you count." ”

Uncle Wu looked at the cash in the envelope, then stuffed the envelope into his coat pocket and turned around to leave.

"Uncle Wu, you stay, I want to talk to you."

Uncle Wu turned his head and looked sharp with a pair of eyes: "What do I have to talk about with you as a child." "Finished. He snorted through his nose and turned to leave again.

Sun Kai smiled: "Uncle Wu, you haven't forgotten the content of the will that my father left for me, I remember that I will give it to you if I will give it to you." ”

Uncle Wu's face suddenly changed greatly, glared at Sun Kai, and then he fled away from Sun's house, without looking back, and when we chased him out, he had disappeared into the night.

"This Uncle Wu is really strange!" I couldn't help but sigh.

"I've been sitting in this place for five years, and I've encountered a lot more evil things than that. Heck, it's not too early today, we'll go look for him tomorrow morning. ”

"Find? Didn't you say that he came and went without a trace on weekdays? Where to look? ”

Sun Kai smiled: "You don't know this, I moved in that envelope, and tomorrow morning, we will arrest him." ”

The next morning, I went out with Sun Kai, Sun Kai took out a compass, this compass is not the same as other compasses, there is only a small bright spot on the compass, pointing the direction, Sun Kai followed the points on the compass all the way down, and soon we arrived at a residential area, Sun Kai finally determined that the compass pointed to a family.

Sun Kai knocked on the door, and soon, the door opened, but it was not Uncle Wu inside, but a woman, and the woman was followed by a seven or eight-year-old child.

"Who are you?"

"Does Wu Chao live here?"

The woman's eyes widened: "You ...... Who is it? ”

"Uncle Wu is my father's friend, and my father asked me to come to him."

The woman gave me and Sun Kai a lot of them: "You guys come in first." ”

Sun Kai and I entered the woman's house, but as soon as we entered the door, my heart sank suddenly, because on the side of the living room of the woman's house, I had a spirit card to worship, and the photo on the spirit card was not the Uncle Wu we saw last night!

Sun Kai, you and I pulled Sun Kai's sleeve, and before Sun Kai could wait, the woman nodded: "Yes, Wu Chao is dead." ”

Sun Kai didn't speak, and his face didn't change much, he already knew that this Uncle Wu was no longer alive, but he still came to receive his salary every month, Sun Kai had long noticed that something was wrong with this Uncle Wu who came to receive his salary every month, but he didn't debunk him, Kai knew that this Uncle Wu must have something hidden.

I was about to ask a question, but Sun Kai gave me a look and told me not to speak yet, and then he sat on the sofa generously.

"My father asked me to take care of Uncle Wu before he died, but I didn't expect him to be gone." Sun Kai faked a tear, and I couldn't help admiring Sun Kai's acting skills. (To be continued.)
