43. The conspiracy is emerging
It's not a coincidence that we're here now, but someone has already calculated it, and what does this matter have to do with Wu Xiaoquan, I only know that many things in my family are very dependent on Wu Xiaoquan's master and apprentice, and I remember that Mr. Zou also said earlier that his father knew a trader named Wu Xiaoquan. But later, after the merchant died, it was the half-immortal in the village who borrowed the corpse to return the soul and became the later Wu Xiaoquan, but Mr. Zou now says that Wu Xiaoquan can be said to be his senior brother, which seems to make some sense before and after, so I thought of this so I asked Mr. Zou: "But you said that this Wu Xiaoquan is a half-immortal who borrowed the corpse to return the soul, how can he become a senior brother with you?" ”
Mr. Zou looked at me with a sharp gaze and said, "Haven't you understood yet?" ”
I was shocked and asked, "Understand what?" ”
Mr. Zou said: "The senior brother I am talking about is Wu Xiaoquan's original face, that is, the half-immortal you said. ”
This is the case, so is this Mr. Zou already hinting to me that the person buried in Wu Xiaoquan's tomb is actually a half-immortal, not Wu Xiaoquan, of course. In a sense, Wu Xiaoquan is a half-immortal, and a half-immortal is Wu Xiaoquan, and there is no difference.
I did a rough calculation of the age, and I could really pick it up, so I said, "That's why you know my grandmother, right?" ”
Mr. Zou hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Yes." ”
I don't know why he hesitated, it seems that at that moment his mind has turned countless thoughts, I think Mr. Zou's answer is problematic, as if he is hiding something, and as if he doesn't want me to know about it, although the relationship between Mr. Zou and grandma is not as imaginary as I imagined when I was crazy, but why they know each other is indeed a little surprising, after all, Mr. Zou lives so far away, and grandma has never mentioned Mr. Zou as a person, Now that I heard Mr. Zou talk about other relationships with half-immortals, I thought of this stubble, so Mr. Zou and grandma should have known each other when they were teenagers, and as for whether there are other pasts between them, there is no need to continue to investigate now.
And obviously Mr. Zou didn't want to talk about it, or even mention it, so when I asked such a question, he immediately changed the subject and asked me, "Can you still see this thing on me now?" ”
I looked behind him again. When he noticed that the thing that was haunting him was gone, he heard my answer and said to me, "Your contents are gone, and I seem to think that their appearance is regular." As if it would have been touched, I suspect that the last time we were able to find Wu Xiaoquan's grave so easily, it was probably they who led the way. ”
I had a lot of questions, but I didn't ask a single one. Because there were more questions, I felt that I should ask for a while, so I looked at the pair of stone horses again, and then remembered what Mr. Zou had said when I stopped me from touching the stone horses, so I brought the question back to the beginning, and I asked Mr. Zou: "Then what is the connection between this pair of stone horses and what I just had, why didn't you let me touch it?" ”
Mr. Zou said, "I just saw that when you walked up to the stone horse, the black paper figure was sitting on the stone horse and was reaching out to take your hand. Just when you were about to touch the stone horse, I rubbed to stop you, but it was too late. ”
I thought Mr. Zou had noticed something was wrong, but I didn't expect him to see it so clearly. And in this barren mountain and wilderness, I felt a chill several times, and I said with a little humility: "No." ”
Mr. Zou didn't explain anything to me until I said this, and he didn't explain it to me, but just explained to me: "I can see what is on you, and you can see what is on me, which means that the two of us can see each other's things, but there is a problem." That's why I couldn't see it before, and you couldn't see anything on me, until the last time we went to Wu Xiaoquan's grave. ”
Hearing Mr. Zou say this, I said, "Is it because of Wu Xiaoquan's relationship?" ”
Mr. Zou said: "I think so too, and have you noticed a detail?" ”
I asked, "What details?" ”
Mr. Zou said: "After we went back to your house from Wu Xiaoquan's grave, the evil qi of your family emerged, and I could also detect it, but before I couldn't find the location of your evil qi at all, and then I barely found a trace on the beam under the eaves, but it was only so sporadic and not all, last night I only felt that your whole house was shrouded in such evil qi." The strength of the evil qi is unimaginable, and it seems that this is not a bad qi that has been bred for a while, so I guess that your family's evil qi has been coming from for a long time, even before the house was built. Or maybe this god is a place where evil energy gathers, but your family still builds a house on it. ”
I pondered Mr. Zou's words, and I always felt as if I had thought of something faintly, so I looked at Mr. Zou a little blankly. When Mr. Zou saw me looking at him thoughtfully, he asked me, "Did you think of something?" ”
I told Mr. Zou with some doubts: "You and my grandmother have known each other since we were young, and you can't know the situation of my old house." ”
Mr. Zou said: "Your grandmother, including your family, has never said anything about your family's house, and your old house already existed when I met your grandmother. I went to your house when I was a teenager, and I wasn't as old as you at that time, but more than 40 years have passed. ”
This old house was built by my grandfather. Grandma's house has existed for a long time when she was a teenager, and it is normal for Mr. Zou not to know the ins and outs, but when it comes to the ins and outs, how do I know. I just listened to my grandfather's lectures, so I said, "I remember that this piece of land in my family house was a pond in the past, and it was only when my grandfather filled it in and planted it, and then a house was built on it. It is my family's old mansion now, and when my grandfather was my grandfather, this old mansion was expanded and repaired, after all, the house needs to be repaired after a long time. ”
Mr. Zou said, "I know that your house has been repaired. Because I had seen it at that time, but it was the first time I had heard of your land as a pond earlier. ”
I said, "I don't know the specifics, but I heard my grandfather talk about it once, and I asked about it, and it is said that my family's land was already very outside the village at that time, just like the location of Mr. Bai's house and the village now." ”
I don't know why, I always feel weird when I use Mr. Bai's house as an example, but Mr. Zou didn't react when he heard it. Just looked at me and said, "Then do you know what that pond did earlier?" ”
I shook my head and said, "My grandfather didn't say it, I asked, but my grandfather didn't tell me why children asked so much, and my grandparents rarely mentioned old things." In addition, I don't like to listen to it, so I really don't know much about these things about my ancestors. ”
Mr. Zou didn't say anything when he heard this, just pondered. As if pondering what I had just said, I felt that I had not provided any useful information, so I said to my husband, "Why don't we go back and ask my grandparents, they must know more detailed and specific." I can only give a general idea, and I can't tell you the specifics. ”
Mr. Zou said to me, "No need to ask, if your grandfather and grandmother were willing to tell me, they would have told me about it a long time ago, and after I saw your grandfather like that last night, I feel that there are many things that he did not say, and even your grandmother may not know everything about what happened in this family, and what it is." ”
Hearing Mr. Zou say this, I suddenly shivered all over my body, and I felt inexplicably frightened, so I said: "But what secrets are there in our family, are those conjectures when I was crazy not conjectures but true?" ”
Mr. Zou heard me say this, so he said: "It's normal for you to be crazy and have conjectures, I still say the same thing, many of your conjectures are based on reality, and I always think that you have witnessed real things when you were crazy, but you have been distorted by your confused thinking, and it has become some boundless conjecture, and you yourself don't know what it is, because these memories will gradually disappear after you get better, right?" ”
I heard Mr. Zou say this, he said exactly what I felt in my heart, I said, "Yes, I don't remember a lot of things now, just like waking up from a dream, what I experienced in my dream is buried deeper and deeper in my mind, and finally I can't find it back." ”
