Chapter 412: Wooden Box

Seeing that my brows were furrowed, the old village chief walked over from a distance and walked to my side.

"Little sir, I also saw it this afternoon, you help Dahan treat. I guess you are also a little bit of a Taoist, can you please help with the little master to solve this matter? ”

He's an old man who treats us well, and since he says he wants to help, then we definitely want to help, but there's one thing I haven't figured out yet.

"Doesn't this Xiaolin have any elders in their family? Their family is the only one who lives together? "I'm a little confused.

I had to ask this question clearly, because if they had elders, it would not be the turn of the old village chief to make this decision.

If there are really any problems that need to be dealt with by us, their elders have the final say.

After listening to my question, the old village chief just sighed, his face full of regret.

"Don't you know, when Xiaolin's father was still alive in the past, he was the head of our village, and later died of illness.

Their little couple is also a hard-working mandarin duck, and the little daughter-in-law was diagnosed with not being able to give birth to a child, which seems to be due to physical reasons.

They were originally childhood sweethearts, growing up together in this village and studying together.

Xiao Lin and the little daughter-in-law fell in love, but because of the little daughter-in-law's physical illness, this made Xiao Lin's parents particularly unacceptable.

Later, Xiaolin's father left, and Xiaolin's mother followed not long after.

After Xiaolin lost his parents, only his childhood sweetheart's daughter-in-law remained, and the two of them got married naturally.

It's just that these days are getting worse and worse.

It didn't take long for this Xiaolin to be diagnosed with a physical ailment and needed to go to the city for treatment.

Originally, he didn't smoke, drink or gamble, but later because of physical problems, he could only pin his hopes on smoking, drinking and gambling.

But this kid was still a little unlucky, every time he gambled on him, he lost, and never saw him win.

Not long ago, I gambled on my home and mortgaged it directly.

Nowadays......"

As the old village chief spoke, tears fell: "This kid did well in school when he was a child, and his body and bones were good.

I don't know when I fell into this problem, and now it's a relief to die, but this death is too miserable.

I felt sour when I saw it. ”

When I heard his words, I didn't feel good in my heart.

"Then since there are no elders in their family, you can play the role of elders, if you tell us that you need us to help, then we will definitely help, please let the villagers retreat, don't surround here, we are going to go in and do it." I reached out and touched my nose, and I was going to do it next.

As for not being able to make money, let's talk about it later.

When the village chief heard my words, he hurriedly asked the other villagers to retreat, and it was still the middle of the night, and the villagers went home to rest.

I saw that everyone had almost retreated, and I also told the village chief to go back and rest, and not to get in our way here.

Huineng first entered the compound of Xiaolin's house, and he automatically found a place to sit down, and began to fold his hands and read scriptures in his mouth.

It didn't take long for me to see the whole house, enveloped in a pale yellow bell shroud.

Everything.

I reached into the treasure bag and took out the Soul Scattering Ruler, and without the peachwood sword, I could only use him to give me courage.

It is very likely that his physical problems are not genetic, but cursed.

It's just that I'm cursed by whom, I have to find out slowly.

Kobayashi's house is an old house, only the second floor is built, and above the third floor, there is a small balcony, but it is still a blank.

Because time is running out, it won't be long before dawn, and then you can't completely sweep the house.

So I changed my usual habits and discussed with Dong Jing to start sweeping down from the top balcony.

Usually people don't put things in the blank because there is too much dust over there, and it is above the third floor, so it is a bit laborious to move things up.

As I expected, we didn't find anything on the balcony or on the third floor, except for some useless cardboard boxes.

On the second floor, there are three rooms on the left and right.

These rooms look like they haven't been occupied for a long time, and in addition to being a little dusty, they also have a faint smell of mold.

Dong Jing and I were on one side, male left and female right, and began to sweep the house on the second floor.

I didn't spend much time in this village, but I also probably learned that there was no funeral shop in the village, because of today's incident, some villagers had already gone to the next village to see if they could find a carpenter to help Xiao Lin and his wife make a coffin.

In addition, the old village chief had already told me before that Xiaolin's father was the village chief of this village before.

As a village chief, I don't believe in these things very much.

If it hadn't happened tonight, or if no one dared to enter the house at night, I don't think the old village chief would have asked us for help.

So when I pushed open the second door on the left, I was a little stunned.

Although it was no longer inhabited, I found a strange wooden chest under the bed.

The wooden box looked moldy, and the wood in the corners was starting to get a little damp and black.

There is a lock on the top of the wooden box, but it has rusted because it has not been used for too long.

Dong Jing walked towards me from elsewhere, and she was visibly overwhelmed when she saw the wooden box.

"I found the same wooden box in the second room on the right, but it's too heavy, so I'm going to call you over and help."

Hearing Dongjing's words, I stopped my hand and was about to unlock the lock.

I rolled my eyes, thinking that there was no key to open it anyway, and I didn't know what was inside the two wooden boxes.

Instead of opening a wooden box separately, it is better to move the two wooden boxes together and open them together.

If there's something horrible in there, then we can at least deal with it together.

With this in mind, I asked Dong Jing to take the handle, and the two of them carried the wooden box to the second room on the right.

The wooden box in this room was almost identical to the one I had found, except for the lines on the corners, which were a little different, but it was obvious that the same carpenter had done it.

Looking at the two wooden boxes in front of me, my mind began to feel that something was wrong.

We told a woman that she had a wooden sign in her house, and it was given to the head of the headwind.

What the hell is going on?
