Chapter 237: Drying clothes on the balcony in the middle of the night

After saying this, I left the mourning hall.

For the next three days, I kept shuttling between the mourning hall and the old lady's house.

Strange to say, since that day, the life-sustaining lotus lamp has not been extinguished.

And I've been to the old lady's house a few times, Zhong Nian's face seems to be a little better than before, and it looks a little better.

It's just that she doesn't know where her soul is, and we can't spare time to help her search for her soul for a while.

The time for the burial was coming soon, and I knew that I would be very busy that day, so I told Mr. Zhong to take care of the seven life-sustaining lotus lanterns.

When the auspicious time came, we went up the mountain with the funeral procession to make sure that the entire burial ceremony was completed by 5 p.m.

If it is past five o'clock, it is the time when the yin qi is at its heaviest.

When the time comes, there will definitely be new questions.

Standing in front of us up the hill was a gray-haired old man.

Although he is old, his body and bones look pretty good.

According to the village chief, not everyone knows where the mass graves are.

The old man is older, and he knows more things.

So he led us and soon found the mass grave.

The mass grave is actually in a cemetery in Laoshan, and there are many tombstones nearby, all of which seem to be slum residents.

There are a lot of weeds near the tombstone, which looks like no one has come to worship for a long time.

I thought about it, since I live in a slum and I haven't been able to solve my three meals and clothing, who will come to worship my ancestors on the fifteenth day of the new year.

Finding a place, I asked the person carrying the coffin to put the coffin inside.

While those men were shoveling the soil, a few boys suddenly popped out of the nearby woods.

They were both men and women, all wearing small red belly pockets, and they looked like they were seven or eight years old.

I don't know if it's playing hide and seek, a few people are hiding everywhere.

When I looked back, I saw that their heads looked like yellow skins.

This shocked me, what is the situation?

I can still tell the difference between humans and animals, but they are obviously standing on two feet, and they are also talking in human language.

But their faces are sharp-beaked monkey gills and covered with yellow hair.

My brow furrowed, and I suddenly remembered that I had seen many people in the village before, and their eyes would turn into a thin line when they met the light.

At that time, I had a question in my heart, how could normal people's eyes look like this.

If it's not a cat, it's a fox or a yellowskin.

I didn't see it before, so I thought it was a fantasy of my own.

But now the children in front of me have given me a definite answer.

My heart was pounding, and the sound of my heart beating even burst through my eardrums.

When I looked back, Dong Jing and Hui Neng also looked at me a little stunned.

I motioned for them not to panic so as not to disturb the others.

If all the people in this village are yellowskins, we will be safe until we find out who they really are.

If they know we've found out, there's a good chance we're in danger.

It's not time to startle the snake.

"Xiaojie, this side has been completed."

After the old man was busy with the events of the day of the burial, he turned back to report to me.

Now that everything is done, I will take them down the mountain.

On the way, I have been thinking about a few yellow-skinned children, combined with the magnetic field of this village, and all the wrongs, I can basically determine that this village is a yellow-skinned village.

I'll have to look into the affairs of this village slowly, and I don't know why it exists.

But all of a sudden, a white light flashed in my head, and I wondered if it had something to do with the headwind.

There are a lot of yellow skins that are yin gods, or scattered immortals.

Some have corrected the way, and some have gone to the evil door.

If the yellow skins in this village are all corrected, then I can turn a blind eye, after all, it has nothing to do with me.

But as long as this matter has something to do with the headwind, then it must be evil, don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes.

I swore in my heart that the bullet had already been loaded, and that I had no way to retreat.

Back in the village, the village chief did not prepare a feast.

I can also understand it, but he is just an outsider, Chen Tong has already spent a lot of money on the village chief this time, how can he prepare a feast for the people in the slums?

But because Chen Tong's network is relatively good, when we brought the Shenpai to the slums, the fathers and villagers were ready, and a table of wine and food was waiting for us to go back.

"It's not easy for you to help us work, there is good wine, good food and vegetarian dishes here, a few gentlemen will stay for a light meal."

The young man who accosted me last time saw that we were back, and hurriedly ran up to me to tell me.

I thought about it after a busy day, and a little hot lower stomach was good.

So I didn't shirk it, so I found a place to sit down with Dong Jing and Hui Neng.

This meal was eaten for a long time, until it was dark, and it was almost midnight, and everyone left one after another.

But the young man I was talking to didn't leave, he looked too drunk, his face was crimson, and his tongue seemed to be knotted when he spoke.

"Where do you say people go when they die?"

Faced with such a philosophical question, I smiled wryly and shook my head.

"I always feel that Chen Tong is not dead," he said, and he suddenly burst into tears: "He is so good, knowing that our family lacks labor, he will always come to our house to help chop wood, how can you say he can die?" ”

I looked at him with a feeling of helplessness.

If Chen Tong is really like a brother and sister to him as he said, then I can understand how sad he is now.

But his next words shocked me.

"Like yesterday, I saw him drying clothes on his little balcony. When I called him he ignored me, and I thought that he might have died. ”

The boy was no longer awake at this point, so he fell asleep on the table.

I wanted to ask something more, but I couldn't get him up anyway.

"There's a good chance that the soul is really sealed here!" Dong Jing looked at me with a nervous expression.

But what if we knew?

As long as the village chief doesn't agree, there is no way for us to do it.

At that moment, the slum suddenly became cloudy.

The sky was also covered with dark clouds, and the originally bright moonlight was obscured.

The villagers had never seen such a scene, and after tidying up their homes, they came out to see.
