Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Genealogy of the Wang Family

Ma Jiu's then Li Xuyang went to investigate, and what he learned was just some ordinary things. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Ma Jiu came to Xiaokangzhuang ten years ago, and bought a piece of land in the north of the village, where to build a house, and there is still half an acre of land left, growing some vegetables.

Then ten years have passed, and Ma Jiu and his neighbors get along quite well here, and there has been no dispute between them, not even basic quarrels. And Ma Jiu doesn't like children very much, whenever a child wants to follow him to his house to play, he will keep his face and send the children away, not letting them get close to his home.

"Uncle Jiu, do you know what is going on in our Li family?" Li Xuyang asked when he heard that Ma Jiu knew about his family.

Ma Jiu stroked the mustache on his chin, and then replied with a smile, "I don't know much, after all, my family used to have dealings with your Li family." ”

"So that's the case, then how do you know that I belong to the Li family?" Li Xuyang's expression became a little serious. Before Ma Jiu came, and after he came, no one called him by his name, let alone mentioned the word Li, but Uncle Jiu was able to say it so accurately, if someone hadn't told him in advance, that is, he had been staring at the Li family.

Uncle Jiu's face showed a hint of panic, but it was only for a moment. Then he said, "Because only the Li family will know these things that few people know." Including the coffin openers in western Sichuan, the feng shui masters in western Jinxi, and the corpse chasers in Xiangxi, of course, they may all know a thing or two, but how can there be coffin openers, feng shui masters or corpse chasers here?"

"Then how can you be so sure that I will be from the Li family?"

"Because a hundred years ago, the mourners in Shanxi disappeared inexplicably, and the only person from the Li family who was originally in Xin'an suddenly disappeared, which is very suspicious. So I inquired, and they said you had migrated to Hebei. Ma Jiu said with a smile again.

No wonder, listening to the accent is not local. Because the accent of the people of Handan is different from other places, even if they stay here for ten or twenty years, or even a lifetime. For those who are not natives of Handan, the accent is completely impossible to learn, because many of the words used here are different from other places. In addition, some people here speak with some children's voices that they are not aware of, which are all imitated or cannot be learned.

"You said that you asked about our Li family, do you have something to do with our Li family?" Li Xuyang changed another topic, which was regarded as a pretext to play and use his words to cover his words.

"Yes, I was trying to find a mourner to bury my father, but after you disappeared, I had to give up that idea. I had to bury my father, so I also came to Hebei, to see that the customs here are good, and I was here in a peaceful old age, who would have thought that I would be able to meet the descendants of your Li family. Ma Jiu said this, his face couldn't help but be a little excited.

"Since you know the past of our Li family, I have to tell you that our ancestors have been extinct a hundred years ago, and so far, they have not appeared. Li Xuyang shook his head and sighed.

"Okay, let's not talk about that. Let's talk about it now, what should I do with this Kang Yu!" Wang Xiaokai said as he interrupted their conversation.

"Let's bury it well!" Li Xuyang said. Zhang Mian also came to Kang Yu's mother to persuade Kang Yu to mourn on Mother's Day and bury his mother well, and the government will also give Kang Yu's mother some subsidies as a family.

At this time, Kang Yu's uncle stood up and said, "That's not good, my nephew's death is unknown." Your police didn't investigate the murderer and let my nephew be buried, this is not good, at least we have to give an explanation, otherwise we will not be buried. ”

Investigate the murderer? How to investigate the murderer? Did you stop only after telling you that it was a ghost who killed you? Li Xuyang glanced at Kang Yu's uncle angrily.

Zhang Mian was also a little embarrassed and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely find out the real culprit and give you justice." ”

"Pull it down, you incompetents, you can still come up with such a high-sounding excuse, I bah. Uncle Kang Yu spit, although he didn't spit on Zhang Mian's body, but such an action was already contempt for the police, and Zhang Mian's face suddenly became a little blue.

Seeing this, Li Xuyang hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Mian and said, "Uncle Zhang, you guys go first! I'll come here, and I'll persuade them." ”

Zhang Mian nodded at Li Xuyang, and then glanced at Kang Yu's uncle with vicious eyes, which means, "You give me care, otherwise I will look good." ”

Kang Yu's uncle was not afraid of Zhang Mian's demonstration, but directly returned to "Come on, who is afraid of whom?"

After sending Zhang Mian and Liu Zhaohui away, Li Xuyang replied again in the small courtyard and dispersed everyone. Now only the corpses of Li Xuyang, Wang Xiaokai, Ma Jiu, Wang Hongzhi, Kang Yu, and his mother and uncle are left in the courtyard.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Li Xuyang opened his mouth and said, "This matter is very incredible, not only your family in Xiaokangzhuang, but also the Xiaozhang Bu Zhao family and the joint venture He family, there are similar cases of murder and headless corpses. However, such a murder method does not seem to be committed by a human being, so we can only treat it as a other case for the time being. ”

After Li Xuyang finished speaking, he faced Uncle Kang Yu and continued: "I mean, I hope you can understand, it's not that we shirk our responsibilities, it's just that there are some things you don't know. Let's bury Kang Yu's body first, and I'll find the murderer and give you a reasonable explanation. ”

"Delaying the army?" Uncle Kang Yu asked disdainfully.

"No, we have no evidence to say who is suspected, and we don't even know where the scene of the first crime is, Kang Yu's mother also said that when Kang Yu's body was found, he was in front of the house, and he was sent back by something, but there was no one else on his body except for his own and his mother's fingerprints. Could it be that let's say that it was Kang Yu's mother who killed her own son?"

As Li Xuyang spoke, the expression on Kang Yu's mother's face became a little stiff, and her face, which was already full of tears, became even more painful. The death of his own son is something that is difficult for anyone to accept for a while, but the facts are the facts.

Hearing Li Xuyang's words, Kang Yu's uncle stopped talking, just sighed and then came to Kang Yu's mother's side, put his hands on her shoulders and said comfortingly, "Sister, let's mourn and change! Yu'er will not die in vain, and the murderer will definitely get a death ten times more cruel than this." ”

To appease Kang Yu's family, Li Xuyang and the others walked out of the courtyard of Kang Yu's house. But when Li Xuyang's gaze swept over everyone to find Ma Jiu, he found that Ma Jiu had already left.

Wang Xiaokai seemed to see Li Xuyang's thoughts, so he came to Li Xuyang's side, and then said to Li Xuyang in a not very loud voice, "Ma Jiu is not a good person, stay away from him." ”

Hearing this, Li Xuyang was stunned, obviously not understanding what Wang Xiaokai meant by this sentence, so he asked, "What's wrong with Grandpa Wang?" I can see from the beginning that your eyes have always been on him, and there is that hostile gaze on your face, what happened?"

"Ma Jiu is definitely not as simple as we seem, he even knew that your ancestor was from Shanxi when he said those words, and he repeated such words many times, what does this mean?" Wang Xiaokai asked Li Xuyang with a serious expression.

Li Xuyang shook his head puzzled.

Wang smiled and snorted, and then said, "He wants to be close to you." ”

Li Xuyang wanted to laugh a little when he heard these three words, but when he saw Wang Xiaokai's stern face, he couldn't help but laugh.

"What is almost to cover? What is almost enough to cover me?" Li Xuyang asked again.

"Maybe not now, but what about the future?"

Wang Xiaokai's words undoubtedly mean that you are not a mourner now, so there is nothing close to a good routine, but what if you become a mourner?

Li Xuyang stopped smiling, he couldn't laugh anymore. Whether he can become a mourner or not, he doesn't know in his heart, but Ma Jiu is indeed as Wang Xiaokai said, and I'm like you, it's better to stay away from some.

"There are some things that you still know too little about and see even less. Even if he is not for your identity as the mourner, he can take advantage of this and make you a pawn to achieve a goal he wants, of course, this is all my guess. Also, he knows your Li family, but he doesn't know my Wang family, which is enough to show that he is running for you. Wang Xiaokai said, his eyes also watching Li Xuyang's reaction.

Wang Xiaokai's words, Li Xuyang didn't understand, and he didn't understand it too much. "Why do you say that you came to my Li family? Is there any way in this?"

"This is not the place to talk, go, go home first. The king smiled and walked back to the place where he had returned.

Wang Hongzhi and Li Xuyang both followed behind with puzzled expressions, and neither spoke.

Without saying anything all the way, the three of them returned to Xin'an Town, this time strangely they did not go to Li Xuyang's shop, but came directly to the small courtyard where Wang Xiaokai lived.

Wang Xiaokai's place of residence is a little simple, it looks like a building in the 80s, and Li Xuyang also learned from him that he has been living here since Wang Xiaokai remembers, so he has feelings for this old mansion and is reluctant to move out.

The place where Wang Xiaokai lived was a small bungalow of less than four rooms, the roofs were covered with grass and saplings, and the house was also surrounded by four walls, some of which were cracked and cracked, but were wrapped in a layer of yellowed newspaper.

Li Xuyang didn't dislike anything, but walked in directly and sat on the old chair in the main room. Wang Xiaokai walked into the back room, Wang Hongzhi looked at the wall and then at the roof, and shook his head secretly.

After a long time, Wang Xiaokai walked out of the back room, but there was an extra book in his hand, and when Li Xuyang saw it, he realized that it was not a book, to be precise, it was a notebook, a genealogy, and the genealogy of the Wang family.
