Wang Qiuyue and I set our plan on the day when the ashes of the old lady's mother and son will go up the mountain.

Due to Yu Man's special status in the village, almost all red and white ceremonies are proud of inviting her, and she will not agree every time, but this time she was there from morning to night on the day of Mrs. Yu's funeral.

It is said that the village chief personally came forward to make peace, and the external statement is that Mrs. Wang no longer chased Yu Man and said that the latter was Yu Huaihan, and admitted her mistakes, acquiescing in her previous statements to slander Yu Man, that is to say, Mrs. Wang knocked over Mrs. Yu's words together.

Yu Man magnanimously expressed her forgiveness for Mrs. Wang's actions, and even Mrs. Yu forgave her, which was manifested in her appearance at the funeral.

When Wang Qiuyue heard this, she said: "If Yu Man is one of the people behind everything, I definitely don't believe that the village chief has no connection with this dark web organization." ”

Indeed, whether it is a relationship between men and women, the involvement between the village chief and Yu Man is too deep.

A few days later, Wang Qiuyue went to Yu Man's house alone, and I was very worried at home, so I went together, but Yu Man refused to allow me to accompany Wang Qiuyue into the ashram.

The time soon came to the day of Mrs. Yu's funeral.

On this day, Wang Qiuyue looked a little tired after leaving the quiet room, and I hurriedly helped her steady: "What's wrong?" ”

Wang Qiuyue shook her head and said, "It's nothing, let's go, let's go home." ”

It's not like nothing.

Back at Li Wei's house, Li's mother was cleaning up breakfast, and when she turned around, the ashes of the old lady's mother and son came out of the crematorium, and their family also had to go up the mountain together, which was the rule in the village.

Only me and Wang Qiuyue are two outsiders who don't need to participate.

The breakfast was a little silent, and when she returned to her room to rest for a while and waited for the planned time, Wang Qiuyue said, "He Yang, have you noticed the pillar of incense that was ordered by Guo Man's house?" ”

Fragrant?

The stick of incense that we lit every time we went in Yu Man's quiet room?

I really didn't pay attention.

It's just that when I meditate, I think the smell of the incense is quite good.

"Is there anything unusual about incense?" Wang Qiuyue would never talk about it for no reason.

She said: "I'm not sure, but I always feel that after you are gone, the smell of the incense in these two days is a little different from before." ”

"What's the difference?" I changed my posture and sat up all of a sudden, Wang Qiuyue is by no means a person without a target, she was always a little uneasy when she left Yu Man's house in the past two mornings, I felt strange at the time, I asked her but couldn't ask, now it seems that this should be the case.

Wang Qiuyue was a little irritable: "I can't say it clearly for a while, but I always feel that it is different." ”

I wanted to ask more carefully, Wang Qiuyue was more irritable, I saw that she was a little unstable, so I didn't continue to ask.

Wang Qiuyue sat on me in a daze.

As the time passed, I heard the sound of Li's mother and others going out, and the footsteps gradually faded away, merging into more footsteps, I knew that it was the village chief who called back in advance, and the urn of the old lady and her son was sent back to the ancestral hall.

This kind of funeral ritual is not allowed for outsiders like us.

It's not that I haven't thought about taking advantage of this time to find Ye Huancheng.

At this time, the whole village has left, and the rest are outsiders like me, which can be said to be the easiest time to find Ye Huancheng, but in the end I still dispelled this idea.

What if you find it?

Wang Qiuyue inquired with Li's mother and asked if there were any strangers in the village, but although this village is remote and not an isolated place, there will be outsiders in and out of the place every day, and this kind of question can't ask anything at all.

In the end, even Wang Qiuyue gave up.

The sound of gongs and drums is loud and penetrating, and even from a long distance, you can hear the sound coming from the direction of the grove.

Slowly, the sound began to move up the mountain.

My eyes lit up and I knew the opportunity I was waiting for had come.

Wang Qiuyue and I are both neat people, there is no one in the village, we quickly rushed to the grove, and walked to the ancestral hall familiarly, and sure enough, there was no one in the ancestral hall.

In the distance, you can see a bunch of people on the hill winding their way up.

Don't miss the opportunity!

The door of the ancestral hall is locked, but this is not difficult for me, I didn't want to snoop last time, this time I came to this place, not to mention that the door was locked, but I didn't have a way to dig out the door!

The lock was an old-fashioned lock, and I opened it with a wire and slipped in through the back door with Wang Qiuyue.

The reason why the back door was chosen was to avoid facing people when they came.

I don't know if it's because of the pond, but the inside of the ancestral hall is very cold, and the wet and cold water vapor gets into the empty neck, and I shiver with cold.

Wang Qiuyue rubbed her hands, sighed, and said worriedly: "With so many tablets, how did you find Yu Huaihan?" ”

It's really not easy, although it's not a place where the Li family specializes in placing tablets, but over the years, the tablets of people with foreign surnames outside the Li family have almost filled an entire wall.

The place where the tablets are placed is a row of wooden shelves made against the wall, which are delicately decorated, and there is a tablet on each row of wooden shelves, and in front of the tablet are boxes of different shapes.

This is the urn.

And what I'm looking for is Yu Huaihan's, the problem is that there are too many of them, it's hard to find.

"Hurry up."

Wang Qiuyue and I didn't talk much, and we had a tacit understanding to start from the two ends to the middle, and then go up to the top after looking for a row, and we looked for more than ten minutes, because I had to look up and carefully check the names on the tablet, and after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.

I can only lower my head and rest for a while and continue to look up.

After looking for more than ten minutes, I couldn't help but be anxious, although Mrs. Yu's burial ceremony will not be good for a while, but I am not afraid of 10,000 just in case, these people live at the foot of the mountain all the year round, and their legs and feet are all neat, in case someone rushes back quickly after the ceremony, but it just blocks us in the ancestral hall?

As soon as I think about this image, I can't help but speed up even more.

At this moment, Wang Qiuyue suddenly shouted happily: "I found it!" ”

I immediately looked over to her.

I saw her leap up neatly, grasp the wooden frame with one hand, and then reach out and climb up nimbly, and soon climbed to a position.

Wang Qiuyue squinted her eyes and stared at the wooden plaque for a while, then reached out and took off the urn and clamped it under her armpit, climbed down quickly, and landed on the ground dexterously.

"Here, this is her urn."

I reached out to take it, but suddenly hesitated.

At this moment, a sudden change arose, and a pair of hands stretched out from the oblique thorns, silently, and the splitter came to snatch the urn.
