Chapter 417: Related Tricks (2)

Li Muyu saw the eyes of the innkeeper in the town, and had a judgment in his heart, but then he remembered the story his grandfather told him when he was a child, and suddenly Li Muyu was a little strange, could it be that his grandfather would expect that he would often go to these rural no-man's lands to tell him such a story?

Later, for the sake of narrative convenience, Li Muyu's grandfather will be temporarily called Lao Li.

Lao Li is the leader of this public dispatch to the countryside, so he is naturally extra vigilant in his heart, not that Lao Li doesn't trust the people here, but he is out of the house and has responsibilities, and Lao Li never dares to relax for half a point.

Lao Li felt the figure outside the window, so he felt the gun in his hand and stalemate all night, early in the morning, as soon as the sun rose, Lao Li went out, first, Lao Li wanted to see who had been snooping outside the window, and there was such a stalemate all night, Lao Li's heart was also a little tired. This kind of exhaustion naturally can't be relieved by sleeping, so you have to get up directly.

Lao Li got up and pushed open the door, but the yard was empty, not to mention no one, not even the sound of animals. At this time, Lao Li reacted, although the sky was already a little blue, but after all, the time was still early, and even the rooster had not yet crowed.

This made Lao Li feel weird, Lao Li walked to the owner's house, the house was quiet, there was no movement, but it could be seen that the owner of the house was still asleep, but if this was the case, then who was the person who spied on the night here last night? Could it be that the owner of this house is pretending to be asleep? But if that's the case, at least there's some movement.

Lao Li stood in the yard like this and was puzzled, until a long time later, the owner of the family woke up, pushed open the door, and was a little surprised to see Lao Li standing in the yard.

Lao Li also looked at the farmer who pushed the door out at this time. Lao Li observed very carefully, the farmer had indeed just gotten up, and his sleepy eyes had not yet been fully opened.

Lao Li looked at the farmer, and the farmer was naturally a little uncomfortable by such a look, so he asked what happened, and Lao Li knew that this person had indeed just woken up, so he told what happened last night, and naturally did not say that he suspected the farmer in his heart.

The farmer couldn't help but change his face when he understood Lao Li's description, said a few perfunctory words, hurriedly diverted the topic, and then didn't say much to Lao Li, and turned his head to cook.

Now it's Lao Li's turn to be strange again, could it be that the person last night was this farmer? But his innocent face at that time was not pretended, could it be said that this person was sleepwalking? But what's so hard about sleepwalking?

Later, Lao Li asked a few more questions about this matter, but the farmer kept flickering and did not give a positive answer, and the farmer's mother-in-law changed and changed after hearing this.

It seems to be the character of inheritance, Li Muyu's curiosity and insistence on getting to the bottom seem to come from Lao Li, Lao Li couldn't let go of it anymore after discovering this kind of strangeness, and went to do things with his comrades during the day, but along the way, Lao Li's heart was always thinking about what happened last night. Lao Li was sure that he didn't feel wrong, and the look of the farmer also proved it, but what was the situation?

So Lao Li made such a decision that night, letting his two comrades-in-arms go back to live in the house, while Lao Li himself squatted around the house, wanting to wait until the night to secretly see who it was.

When it was late at night, Lao Li was hiding outside the house, watching the lights in the house gradually go out, Lao Li was also vigilant in his heart.

In this era, electric lights are a very rare thing, and kerosene lamps are the main lighting tools here, so in order to save fuel at night, everyone turns off the lights very early, Lao Li looked at the sky, thought about the time he met that figure last night, and sighed in his heart.

Lao Li leaned against an earthen wall outside the house alone, Lao Li did not fall asleep, and the habits he developed during the training on weekdays made it easy for Lao Li to wake up at the specified time. Lao Li fell asleep in a daze, and when it was time to meet that figure yesterday, Lao Li shivered, and then woke up. But at this awakening, Lao Li discovered a strange thing, a person came from the countryside in the distance.

The sky was dark, and Lao Li couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, but judging from the shadow, it was a slightly chubby man. A very strange thing happened when someone appeared at this time, Lao Li had something, but why was this person?

Lao Li couldn't figure it out, but he didn't want to expose himself, so he hid himself at the base of the wall, occasionally peeking at the figure walking over.

Lao Li never saw what that figure looked like, which made Lao Li inevitably have some strange thoughts in his heart, but Lao Li then saw that this person walked straight towards the courtyard where he lived. Lao Li was shocked, but he was afraid that this person would find out, so he hurriedly retracted his head.

Lao Li calmed down a little, and then poked his head out again, but at this time, there was no figure of the man outside the courtyard, not even around.

Did the man go into the yard? Or is this the person who spied on him yesterday? Lao Li naturally thought so, but Lao Li felt wrong when he thought about it like this.

If this person enters the courtyard from the outside, how did he get in? Lao Li just dodged for a moment, but in a blink of an eye, this person disappeared and went in? It's a little weird. The wall of that courtyard was more than one person high, and it would take a bit of effort to climb the wall, and it would be difficult to enter through the gate. Although this is a rural area, there is no saying that it is safe to stay open at night.

So how did the man get in? Did you jump directly on the wall, or did you go through the wall? Seeing such strange things, Lao Li's mood was even more uncontrollable, but just as Lao Li was about to walk towards the courtyard, the door of the courtyard suddenly opened.

Lao Li hid back again, at this time Lao Li thought to himself, if the person who came out this time was the one who just entered, it would be easy to explain, after all, people have the key, maybe they are relatives of this farmer, although it is a little strange to appear so late, but what people want to do, Lao Li can't control it.

But when Lao Li poked his head out again, Lao Li was stunned, because Lao Li saw that it was not the man who entered before, but the owner of the house and his mother-in-law who came out.

The two men walked out of the courtyard gate, and then lightly locked the courtyard door, and the movement was so light that almost no sound could be heard. Lao Li couldn't see the expressions of these two people, but Lao Li himself had a solemn expression, and this matter seemed to be a bit weird.
