Wang Laifu followed Li Bing into the hall without saying a word, and sat down at the dining table in the center of the hall with a big grin.

Li Bing smiled and handed Wang Laifu a cigarette, and after helping him light it, he said: "Accountant Wang, this place has not been completely sorted out, and we can't cook any good dishes to entertain you, only a few plates of braised vegetables we brought back from the town to drink, please don't mind." ”

He turned his head and shouted to Shi Liya: "Sister Shi, bring up the Wuliangye we brought and pour it for Uncle Wang!" ”

Wang Laifu, who had been gloomy, had a hint of surprise in his eyes, and said with joy on his face: "Oh, I am a bad old man in the mountains, and I don't know what blessings I cultivated in my previous life, so I am fortunate to be able to drink this kind of good wine." ”

Although Shi Liya was extremely reluctant, she also smiled on her face, took out a bottle of Wuliangye, and poured a full cup for Wang Laifu.

After taking a sip of wine, Wang Laifu blinked his eyes and praised it: "Good wine, how can we people in the ravines have ever drunk such good wine." ”

Seeing that Wang Laifu's expression was relaxed, Li Bing hurriedly poured him another cup and began to accompany Wang Laifu to talk nonsense.

Wang Laifu's words also increased, and he began to blow about his time when he was a soldier in the army.

Shi Liya, Zhang Yuanshan, and Qian Yiduo wondered: Didn't Li Bing invite Wang Laifu to come and test him with words, trying to find out the truth of the incident? Why did this Hongmen banquet become like an old friend for many years drinking and talking?

Until the three bottles of Wuliangye were drunk, Li Bing never mentioned the matter of Wenyuan and Qu Lili, but just blindly praised Wang Laifu.

When the wine was almost drunk, Wang Laifu stood up happily and said, "Several, I am so happy today, I am really willing to drink such good wine." I'm drinking too much and I'm a little sleepy, so I'll go home and sleep! Farewell! ”

Seeing that Wang Laifu was a little stumbling, Li Bing hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, you are old, cultivate a little." Come, I'll help you out. ”

Li Bing didn't say a word, and helped Wang Laifu up. What puzzled Shi Liya and the others was that Li Bing supported Wang Laifu and walked towards their room instead of walking towards the door.

Wang Laifu, who was drunk, had just been helped by Li Bing for a few steps, and his face suddenly changed: in front of him was the room where Wen Yuan committed suicide.

Wang Laifu seemed to sober up all of a sudden, took a step back, stood still, and said with some annoyance: "Li Bing, why did you go to the wrong place when you sent me home?" ”

Li Bing hurriedly smiled and said: "Uncle Wang, I saw that you were a little drunk just now, and I was afraid that the mountain road would not be easy to walk, so I wanted to help you into our room to rest for a while, and it would not be too late to go back when you woke up!" ”

Wang Laifu grimaced, and shook Li Bing's hands supporting him, with great strength. Li Bing was secretly frightened, he didn't expect this old man in his sixties to have such a strong physique.

Wang Laifu walked out with a gloomy face, and Li Li shouted: "Stop!" ”

Wang Laifu's body was shocked, and he was stunned for a long time before he slowly turned around and asked vigilantly, "Li Bing, what do you want to do?" ”

Li Bing said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, today is the first time we meet, how embarrassed is it to let your old man go back empty-handed!" ”

He stuffed a Chinese cigarette and the remaining bottle of Wuliangye that he had brought from the car on a wooden table in the corner and stuffed it into Wang Laifu's hand.

Wang Laifu looked at Li Bing in surprise: "Li Bing, what do you mean by this?" How dare I accept such a valuable thing for me? ”

Li Bing smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, these little meanings are just today's meeting gifts." When you wake up, you often come to tell us stories about the Cultural Revolution, and I have to pay you for the manuscript! ”

Wang Laifu asked in surprise, "Li Bing, is this true?" Can I still get paid for telling you stories? ”

Li Bing said: "Of course, if you tell us once, I will pay you a hundred yuan." Uncle Wang, you have too much wine, let's go home and rest first. When we need a story to write, we will come to your house and come to you. ”

Wang Laifu was extremely surprised, changed his gloomy face, smiled at several people, and bowed, and then left the ghost house satisfied.

As soon as Wang Laifu left, Shi Liya asked, "Li Bing, what kind of trick did you just play?" ”

Li Bing said: "I have my own plans, don't worry." Originally, Wang Laifu was invited today, because he wanted to go head-to-head and get the real situation back then. But there were a few hiccups that made me change my mind. ”

He pointed to the room where Wen Yuan committed suicide and said, "Have you noticed?" I deliberately helped Wang Laifu to come to that room, and his face changed greatly, and he immediately woke up. What does this mean? Wen Yuan's death has a lot to do with him! ”

Shi Liya complained: "In this case, why don't you simply use the title to uncover this veil?" ”

Li Bing shook his head and said, "Wang Laifu is burly and powerful, and he already felt it when he broke free of my hand just now." In this way, I am even more convinced that he is the man in black who wanted to commit murder that night. ”

"He would never admit a man as vicious as him without conclusive evidence. Whether it's a dispute or a reason, we're at a disadvantage. ”

He looked at Wang Laifu's swaying figure in the mountain road, beckoned to Qian Yiduo and said, "Brother Qian, you usually rarely speak, when you drank just now, Wang Laifu didn't have any impression of you." Besides, you're small and thin, and it's not easy for people to notice. Therefore, I want to trouble Brother Qian and quietly follow Wang Laifu to see where his family lives and if anyone is going to look for him. ”

Qian Yiduo 'um' all over, his body jumped out of the door quickly, and quietly followed Wang Laifu with the twists and turns of the mountain road and the trees and flowers on the side of the road.

Li Bing looked at Shi Liya seriously and said, "Sister Shi, there is something I have to ask you to do." ”

Shi Liya hummed softly and said, "Li Bing, if there is anything, you can just tell me, and we will all obey your command." ”

Li Bing asked, "Sister Shi, do you dare to stay alone in this haunted house?" And I want you to go into the room where Wen Yuan committed suicide! ”

Shi Liya looked a little nervous and asked, "Li Bing, why do you want to do this?" You told me, I have the bottom in my heart to consider whether I can or not! ”

Li Bing said: "Sister Shi, that's the case, I expect that there will definitely be a ghost today." However, it's not a real ghost, you can rest assured of this. Brother Zhang and I have to pretend to go out and let you pretend to be bait here. Of course, a few of us will protect you in the dark. ”

Shi Liya asked fearfully: "Li Bing, do you mean that Wang Laifu may secretly come to look for an opportunity to attack tonight?" ”

Li Bing smiled and didn't answer, just looked at Shi Liya with expectant eyes.

Shi Liya bit her lip, made up her mind, and nodded slowly. This courage comes from the trust and dependence she has in her heart for Li Bing.
