Chapter 0017: This Knife
"Shhh
"What's wrong?"
The other watchers cautiously shifted their steps, gathered together, and asked timidly.
"I heard that he was not invited by the owner of the high village, but he himself came."
Several watchers gathered closer, and a few couldn't help it, turned back in fear, and took a quick look at him before looking at him with some reassurance.
"He came on his own?"
The watcher who spoke also glanced at the room with some trembling, and then said, "There are ghosts in Gaojiazhuang. ”
The spenders suddenly felt that there was someone behind them, and they couldn't help but glance back, and the beads of sweat also rolled down, and found that there was nothing behind, so they glanced at the room again, and squatted down to look at the person who spoke just now.
The watchman, his face as gray as dirt, took a deep breath before he said vaguely, "He's here to catch ghosts." “
Then he was nervous, hurriedly squatted down, looked at them, and said tremblingly: "It's a demon." ”
Gu Cheng didn't bother to listen to their exaggerated and empty chats, stretched his neck, and said to himself: "I hope Judge Liu can put down the official frame and judge the situation." ”
The nurse left the room and said to the maid, "Wait for me, I'll go pack some things." ”
She waited for a long time, and the owner of Gao Zhuang finally came.
As soon as they met, Master Gao asked, "What is there something special about the young master, you are so flustered." ”
"Tell the owner, the young master asked me to leave with this silver and live a good life. It seems that he is very emotionally unstable, as if he is going to do something, something very serious, the owner, should I pay attention to it secretly. “
"The young master asked you to leave, then the matter is not serious... You'll go back to your room and I'll let you show up when it's time to show up, you know? “
"Yes, owner."
The nurse said weakly and retreated.
Gao Xuan is his son, his temper, personality, and hobbies, he is very familiar with it, and besides, all the samurai he trains are controlled by him behind his back, and of course he knows what he wants to do.
He sighed softly, walked into the backyard, sat firmly in the main hall of the backyard, and waited patiently for him.
Sure enough, after a while, Gao Xuan was furious, angry and rushed in.
"What's the matter, Xuan'er."
Gao Xuan was ready to rush in and ask for clarification, but when he saw his father sitting in front of the hall with his eyes closed and calm, he suddenly didn't dare to speak.
He had never been afraid, he had never been afraid of his father, but at this moment he felt an invisible pressure that oppressed him so that he did not dare to speak.
After a while, Gao Xuan greeted him twice and asked, "Father, why did you do it?" ”
"Xuan'er, do you know how the Zhao family was wiped out?"
Master Gao's eyes changed from unquestionable, from stern to soft, walked down, approached him and said.
"The Zhao family?"
Gao Xuan was inexplicably cold, and there was a faint feeling in his heart that he couldn't speak, this feeling was unprecedented, and it had never appeared.
Master Gao also noticed this, and then changed the topic and asked, "Xuan'er, do you want to ask me why you want to arrest all the feng shui gentlemen in Qiqi, right?" ”
Gao Xuan didn't speak, his eyes were a little dazed, and tears were rolling in his eyes.
Didn't he know that Mr. Feng Shui was caught by me, and I said it carelessly... No, since he risked being severely punished and forced into the backyard, then he will definitely look around, and the old man will never appear in front of them again, he can't find Mr. Feng Shui who was caught by me, does he still want to ask...
The owner of the high village speculated for himself, and said expressionlessly: "Follow me." ”
Gao Xuan didn't speak, and quietly followed him to another room.
As soon as he opened the door, he felt a gloomy aura rushing towards him, Gao Xuan couldn't help but tremble twice, but he still walked in.
"This knife..."
The owner of the high village took Xue Liang's knife and handed it over.
Gao Xuan looked around and found that this room was very simple, with only a few skeletons and a piece of animal skin hanging on the wall.
Seeing these skeletons, Gao Xuan was not afraid, he didn't know why he was suddenly no longer afraid, before, he was very afraid of corpses, afraid of cold corpses, afraid of skeletons, afraid of incomplete skeletons.
Gao Xuan didn't know, but the owner of Gao Zhuang knew his son very well, and naturally knew that he was no longer so afraid because he personally watched the scene of the Dragon Chair Cave in Jiuxuan Mountain.
Gao Xuan glanced at his father, carefully took the sword, and looked at him suspiciously again.
The owner of Gao Zhuang did not look at him, but turned his head, took off the animal skin, and said: "Father is eighteen years old, follow Grandpa to chase this man-eating beast, in the chase, Father took the lead, single-handedly rushed in front, the rest of the people chased for a long time, there was no shadow of him, when Grandpa sadly thought that he was eaten, suddenly the horse neighed, and Father appeared in front of everyone with a bloody animal skin. ”
"He used this knife, leaving only a hole, and the beast died."
Master Gao Zhuang pointed to the opening on the animal skin and said.
He hung up the animal skin, took out a skull, and said: "On the day of grandpa's death, the owner of Li Zhuang wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of grandpa's death to destroy Gaojiazhuang in one fell swoop for money and power, and my father endured the pain of grandpa's departure, resolutely pulled out the sword, and roared to worship grandpa with Li Youcai's blood. The sky was dark in this battle, the ghost cried wolf, and finally his father was stabbed twice, and he also forcibly took off Li Youcai's head, which is this. ”
He hung it up, took another one and said: "The bandits in Maopo Village are in turmoil, my father was over half a hundred years old at that time, and he should have enjoyed a short time, but in the face of these arrogant bandits, robbing and robbing, and killing people like hemp..."
He paused for a few seconds and became sad: "The Zhao family was also ransacked by these bandits overnight, and my sister... Your aunt..."
Master Gao Zhuang held back his tears, and after a while said: "Father is really restless and heartbroken, and finally he kissed the war horse and took me to rescue those poor girls, poor children, but your aunt... She... This is the head of Mao Sanweng in Maopo Village, stay here to worship your aunt. ”
The owner of Gao Zhuang hung his head, looked at him lovingly, and said: "My father was also seriously injured this time, and he died after a long time... Xuan'er, your grandfather is a big hero, a big hero that no one can match, he left a last sentence... I will never forget it for the rest of my life. ”
Master Gao took the treasure knife from Gao Xuan's hand, took out the handkerchief, and wiped it.
"Leave a word, unforgettable in this life?"
Countless question marks in Gao Xuan's mind were rolling like boiling water.
"Hide me at the foot of Jiuxuan Mountain, and I want to see the people of Jiuqi well."
The owner of Gao Zhuang hung up the treasure knife, looked at him, and said word by word, from the bottom of his heart.
Gao Xuan was stunned, still not understanding why his father was buried in Jiuxuan Mountain without telling his grandfather? Why didn't you go to worship for so many years? Why don't you mention these past events?
Master Gao Zhuang walked out, returned to the original room, sat on the main hall, took a sip of tea, turned to Gao Xuan, and said: "Your grandfather does not allow others to worship, nor does he allow us to worship, saying that he did not take care of the people of Qiqi, he wants to watch the people of Jiuxuan Mountain quietly, as long as the people of Qiqi are healthy, he will rest in peace." ”
"But... How will the sky be Chilei. ”
Gao Xuan glanced at the owner of Gao Zhuang and made sure that he was not angry, before continuing: "Father said yesterday, strange thunder fell from the sky, grandpa saw the light of day again, and returned to the prosperity of the past, is it not good for the people of the village to live now?" ”
"Xuan'er! You only care about dealing with bandits and robbers, but you forget the people around you, and now the people are not as good as in the past, and the people are also deeply dissatisfied, but they don't dare to speak up. ”
The owner of the village looked at Gao Xuan still at a loss, stood up again, walked a few steps, gently patted his shoulder with his right hand, and said, "Xuan'er, you have to know that your father lied to you definitely for your good, don't worry!" Whether it is a strange thunder from the sky, or someone is secretly doing it, I will find out the water and reveal the water in the high temperature, so that they will pay for their blood debts and blood, and they will not die well. ”
"Obvious thunder from the sky... Don't? ”
Gao Xuan didn't know that his grandfather was buried in the tomb, so he naturally wouldn't have thought that it was man-made, but the owner of Gao Zhuang buried those gold, silver and jewels with his own hands, and now there was nothing, how could he simply believe in the strange thunder that fell from the sky?
"Xuan'er, people's hearts are sinister, the tree is very popular, everything has to be cautious, do you remember."
"Father, do you mean that someone deliberately did this, threatening to send strange thunder from the sky, so as to make the people lose trust in us, and then find the right time to attack and destroy our Gaojiazhuang?"
Gao Xuan also became nervous and asked again.
"This is why I want to invite all the feng shui gentlemen in Xuan'er, Xuan'er, my father really doesn't want you to know, I don't want you to be afraid of these things, but if I don't let you know, I'm afraid that your little leopard's temper will be difficult to soothe, so that it will be easier for others to find the right opportunity, Xuan'er... You can figure it out now. ”
"Could it be Lord Yang... When I arrived, Lord Yang had already pulled up the white cloth, and he was the first to arrive. “
"If it's just Lord Yang, then things will be easy to do, I'm afraid..."
Master Gao deliberately left a question for Gao Xuan to think about and let him say it by himself. Although Gao Xuan will naturally believe what he said, if it comes out of Gao Xuan's own mouth, it will be very different.
The owner of Gao Zhuang is always scheming, and he is extra careful with every small problem, otherwise he would not have to take such effort to persuade Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan's lips turned purple, he poured a cool breath, his body trembled slightly, and after a long while, he suddenly said: "Could it be that these feng shui gentlemen are united with Lord Yang, and Lord Yang is united with bandits and robbers... Spread rumors together... I want to destroy our Gaojiazhuang. ”
When Gao Xuan said this, he instantly felt how ignorant he was, he misunderstood his father, and he also looked at his father with a gloomy face in fear, and he didn't dare to continue.
"Xuan'er, your eldest brother is far away in southern Sichuan, and now there are only you and me left in the entire Gaojiazhuang."
Master Gao turned around, turned his back to him, and said with some desolation.
"Father... I..."
Gao Xuan knew that his ability was limited and he was ashamed.
"Xuan'er... There is one thing that needs you to do, and only you can do it, are you willing? ”
