Chapter 191 Ancestral Hall Dark Room
Entering the ancestral hall, Chen Si and I heard the sound of sobbing intermittently coming from the ancestral hall. Chen Si's pace was quick, and she hurried in the direction where the sobbing sound came from. In order to protect Chen Si's safety, I followed Chen Si closely, not daring to leave her half a step away.
The two of us followed the direction from which the voice came, and soon bypassed the front desk of the ancestral hall and came to the backyard of the ancestral hall. This is a very old Xiangxi-style courtyard patio, the patio is full of water, although it is dirty, but you can still see some small animals swimming in it. In the center of the patio is a large stone jar.
Chen Si told me that this stone jar was originally used to worship the heavens. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, because people no longer believed in superstition, this stone jar was also idle in the courtyard of the ancestral hall, and the stone jar that originally only placed the offerings was now also full of earth. In the middle of the soil there was a flower, although the flower had withered, leaving a withered vine. But it is undeniable that this flower once bloomed in full bloom.
We didn't want to stay here too long, and we listened to the sound and walked forward. As we walked into a corner to the northeast of the patio, the sound grew louder and louder, and we found that the sound was coming from a hole the size of a rat's hole!
"Rat hole?" Chen Si exclaimed.
"Of course, it's not rats that have taken people hostage." I smiled and said, "There should be a tunnel underneath this patio." ”
"So what are we going to do to find the tunnel?" Chen Si immediately asked me.
I didn't answer, and walked around the patio, but I didn't find anything like a dark grid or button. However, on the stone jar in the center of the patio, a circular button was found. In the muddy water of the patio, you can still faintly see the stone bridge in the center of the patio sinking at the bottom of the patio.
"It seems that it has been raining a lot here in recent days, and the stone bridge has been flooded." I said to Chen Si.
Chen Sidao: "I haven't been here before. People in the village are not allowed to enter the inner courtyard of the ancestral hall. Alas. ”
After listening to Chen Si's words, I also understood a lot.
It is no wonder that Chen Sihui does not know much about the ancestral hall, because Shangbao Village has always forbidden villagers to enter the inner courtyard.
In this way, there is a lot of mystery in this ancestral hall.
"You wait for me here, I'll go over and have a look." I said to Chen Si, who had only taken two steps before Chen Si stopped me.
She picked up a stone from the ground, then walked over to the patio and threw it into the filthy patio. As soon as the stone entered the patio, the water in the patio gurgled and gurgled.
We were both shocked, and our eyes kept glued to the water in the patio.
I found that the stone that was thrown by Chen Si before was corroded into slag in a short time!
It is no wonder that the water in this patio is so polluted that the water is very corrosive, and the large stones of the patio are corroded into slag, which soaks the entire patio and makes the water appear very turbid.
But what makes me wonder is why the stone jars of the stone bridge and patio are intact.
To find out, I walked to the side and picked up a small bamboo stick, then walked to the patio and stuck it on the stone bridge.
Suddenly, the stone bridge was like shattered yellow sand, scattered among the sewage!
This stone bridge is still like this, and the stone jar may be like this!
Therefore, if you want to press the button on the stone bridge to open the authentic secret door of the second ancestral hall, it is already a luxury!
It was important to save people, so I took the shovels, shovels, hoes and other tools left by the mysterious people before, and then dug with Chen Si along the previous mouse hole. After a while, we dug a small rat hole.
At this time, a road leading to the ancestral hall also appeared in front of us.
"I'll be ahead in a minute, and you'll follow me closely." I followed Chen Si, and Chen Si nodded.
She and I put down our tools, and then I took her hand and walked into the tunnel, and walked down the tunnel.
The further down I went, the more I could hear the child's crying.
The two of us are walking faster and faster, and the heart of saving people is already very urgent.
According to the direction from which the voice came, we quickly found the person who had been crying, and he was Chen Xiaoer, who we had been looking for.
It's just that at this time, Chen Xiaoer squatted in the corner and buried his head and cried, and there was no one around!
What the hell is going on? Where did his captors go? Why did he leave him here alone? Could it be that the three tomb robbers before were the ones who kidnapped Chen Xiaoer? Why were they so careless and threw Chen Xiaoer here?
Chen Si walked to Chen Xiaoer's side and said to Chen Xiaoer in a very gentle tone: "Xiaoer, don't cry. My sister is here. ”
Chen Xiaoer raised his head after hearing this, and when he saw Chen Si, he burst into Chen Si's arms with a loud cry.
"Sister Si, woo, you're here to save me," Chen Xiaoer cried bitterly in Chen Si's arms.
Chen Si patted Chen Xiaoer's back and said, "Don't be afraid, my sister is here to save you." Everything is fine. ”
"Woo, but my mom, my mom, she was killed by the bad guys! Woo," Chen Xiaoer cried.
After hearing this, Chen Si comforted Chen Xiaoer and said, "Xiaoer, it's okay." There will be no more bad people, and we will definitely avenge your mother. ”
"Woo woo woo" Chen Si cried, and kept crying like this.
After Chen Xiaoer finished crying, Chen Sicai asked Chen Xiaoer: "Xiaoer, do you know who kidnapped you?"
"It's Uncle Sun Hai!" Chen Xiaoer replied without hesitation.
"Sun Hai?" Chen Si was taken aback and said suspiciously, "Who is Sun Hai?"
Chen Xiaoer said: "Uncle Sun Hai is a friend of my father outside. A week ago, he came to my dad and said that he was going to explore for ore in our village and to build a mine here. Because they were friends, my dad became their guide. But no, three days ago, my dad ran back covered in blood, and as soon as he came back, he called my mom and asked my mom to come back and pick me up. After that, my dad didn't even look at me, and went out with a bag of luggage!"
"After my dad left, Uncle Sun Hai came to look for me. I think my dad must have had a problem with Uncle Sun Hai when he came back covered in blood. So he hid. Uncle Sun Hai looked for me for a long time, but I didn't find it and left. Do you know? I was hiding in the water tank. If my mom hadn't come back and found me, I probably wouldn't have come out again! But no, as soon as my mother and I came out, Uncle Sun Hai and them found out, and Uncle Sun Hai forced us to take them to my father. My mother would rather die than obey, so they kidnapped me and forced my mother. But my mom still doesn't want to. Unexpectedly, they killed my mother ruthlessly. Woo."
"Poor boy." Chen Si comforted Chen Xiaoer, but I fell into deep thought after listening to Chen Xiaoer's words.
The person who kidnapped Chen Xiaoer was named Sun Hai, and this Sun Hai was the tomb robber in a black torn shirt. Chen Xiaoer said that his father, Chen Pi, was covered in blood when he returned from outside, and Sun Hai's black shirt was also in tatters. In this way, they did not go to explore for any ore at that time, but went to the ancient tomb to rob the tomb!
Sun Hai has been looking for Chen Pi, it must have happened when they robbed the tomb! Fang Cai, Sun Hai and the others hurriedly ran to the ancient tomb, most likely because they found something. We have to get to the tomb as soon as possible to find out what happened! (To be continued.) )
