Ma Chengye frowned.

"But we can now be pretty much sure that your dad is alive, and he lied to all of us, but haven't you ever wondered if your mom survived?"

Wu Qi smiled and immediately said, "Since my father is alive, do you think my mother may die?" ”

"I don't know why he did this, or why he lied to all of us, but I can at least be sure that he wanted to settle things."

"And I want to cover up this matter silently."

"As for his whereabouts, I don't know."

Ma Chengye sighed.

"Son, no matter what, your dad must have his own troubles."

"I know him very well."

"If it weren't for the fact that he was at the end of the mountain, he would not have abandoned you."

"Maybe he abandoned you only for your safety to a certain extent."

Wu Qi frowned deeply.

"So he can leave me alone in Niujia Village and be alone for so many years?"

"So he hasn't seen me in more than twenty years?"

Ma Chengye hurriedly said: "Maybe he is hiding in a dark place and keeping watch over you, maybe it?" ”

Wu Qi was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Ma Chengye and said disdainfully: "Uncle Ma, do you think this kind of bizarre thing will happen to me?" ”

"I don't know how many times I've been on the verge of despair over the years, and which one didn't survive on my own?"

"If he really wanted to save me, how could I still be so miserable?"

"Maybe you don't know, just half a year ago, I was a vegetative person who had been sleeping for three years."

Wu Qi smiled bitterly, and Ma Chengye's face was full of incredulity.

Wu Qi sighed.

"Okay, Uncle Ma, since I know everything I need to know, then I won't stay here any longer."

With that, Wu Qi turned around and walked towards the guest house.

Ma Chengye hurriedly said: "Child, no matter what, you must not hate your father, let alone think of doing anything unfavorable to him." ”

Wu Qi shook his head.

"Blood is thicker than water, I still know that."

Ma Chengye frowned, and then said: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, although we can be sure that your parents are not dead after listening to what Zhang Er Mazi said." ”

"But maybe your parents left you something important, or where they are now."

"If you don't mind, I'll accompany you to the old mansion, and I also want to know what kind of medicine my good brother sold in the gourd."

Wu Qi also nodded.

"Uncle Ma, you're right."

With that, the two of them walked together towards the old mansion.

When he arrived at the old mansion, looking at the overgrown periphery of the old mansion, Ma Chengye frowned, and then said: "Steel egg, you wait, I'll go get an axe and split this door lock." ”

Wu Qi shook his head.

"Don't bother."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and clicked lightly, and the door lock was opened.

Wu Qi directly pushed open the door and walked in.

Ma Chengye was stunned in the back, and after a while, he quickly stepped forward and picked up the door lock that was broken from the middle, and couldn't help but be a little shocked in his heart.

But he didn't think much about it, and followed Wu Qi in.

After Wu Qi walked in through the gate, he went straight into the inner room, and the door was locked.

The back room was not locked in any way, not even a door.

Wu Qi didn't see anything when he entered, and everything here was pretty much the same as when he left, just a simple desk and a wooden bed that was a little too narrow.

And it was already covered with a thick layer of dust.

The two of them walked around the room in a long circle, and after a few moments. Ma Chengye looked at Wu Qi, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Steel Egg, it seems that you are going to be disappointed, there is nothing here." ”

Wu Qi nodded, and then said, "It's just expected." ”

Ma Chengye sighed, and then said, "They don't necessarily want you. ”

"This is your family matter, to be honest, Uncle Ma doesn't want to worry too much."

"It seems that since there is nothing to discover now, do you still want to go to the back mountain?"

"If you need to open the grave, then I'll help you, and if not, then I'll go back to the guest house."

Wu Qi nodded.

"Uncle Ma, you better go back first, thank you for helping me so much."

Ma Chengye nodded and said, "Then remember to come to me if you need anything, and I will definitely help if you can." ”

Wu Qi smiled.

"Then I'll thank Uncle Ma first."

Ma Chengye smiled: "Look at you, what else is polite between the two of us?" ”

So saying, he turned and walked away.

Wu Qi did not rush to leave, but walked to the desk and opened the drawer.

The drawer was empty. There is only a small family photo.

Wu Yuan hugged him above, while his mother smiled brightly on the side, looking happy.

Wu Qi looked at the two people who were both familiar and a little unfamiliar above, smiled faintly, and put the photo in his pocket.

After making sure that there was nothing about his parents in the old house, he turned away and headed straight for the back mountain.

After walking for more than ten minutes, he reached the back mountain, and then came to the small isolated grave.

Half a year has passed, and the grass growing on the grave has withered and yellowed, and it looks lonely.

Wu Qi waved his hand to remove all the weeds on it.

After that, without saying a word, he broke a hole in the grave and removed all the dirt from it.

Two coffins were revealed inside the mound.

The red coffin cloth on the coffin came into view, Wu Qi stood on it, waved his hand, and the coffin lid opened.

was different from what he imagined, and the scene that caught his eye made Wu Qi suddenly feel shocked.

Because in the two coffins, it was not as empty as Wu Qi expected, but the coffins were covered with white bones.
