Chapter 12 There are still hidden secrets
didn't have time to listen to Wang Chenglong say too much, and didn't care about the surprised eyes of the villagers on the streets of the village, Zhou An went straight to the direction of the old man's house.
When Zhou An returned home, the old man was repairing part of the collapsed courtyard wall in the courtyard, and Zhang Chuxue and Sun Xiang were also helping.
From a distance, Zhang Chuxue and the two saw Zhou An, who was running out of breath, and beckoned to him, signaling him to come over quickly.
When he saw the two of them, Zhou An's hanging heart had already been put down, and he returned home in a hurry.
"Zhou An, Uncle is really not blowing, you see that the wall of this small courtyard is repaired, it is called a straight!"
On the clothes, foreheads, and hair of the two, there are dots of mud, which should have been accidentally made when helping with mud, and the old man also looked at them with a smile, without the help of the two of them, he couldn't repair it so fast on his own.
Since coming back, Zhou An's eyes have been on the uncle's body intentionally or unintentionally, according to Wang Chenglong, this old man is not a good stubble, but a messenger of that thing in the mountains.
But after coming back, seeing that there was nothing wrong with the two of them, Zhou An's panicked mood also calmed down, if according to Wang Chenglong, this old man is the messenger of that thing, then why did he escape?
And after he fled, the messengers were gone, what about that thing in the mountains, who was going to send tribute to it? qδ
Judging from Wang Chenglong's actions of burying his wife, that thing must still be there, and it is still making waves, and the monthly tribute is not less, who sent the tribute to that thing?
A series of questions have sprung up again, whether it is this old man or Wang Chenglong, they must not be telling the truth, they must have something to hide from themselves.
"Uncle, I'll help you repair the wall."
Suppressing so many doubts in his heart, Zhou An took a few steps forward and began to help the old man build the wall, outside the gate, at this time, it was already surrounded by the villagers of Wangri Village, but none of them dared to enter the house, all of them were passing through the gaps in the broken courtyard wall, looking at the people who were busy in the courtyard.
"Uncle, why didn't they attack us en masse?"
"Didn't you say that you brought it out of the mountains back then, and the villagers shouldn't hate you very much?"
Since each of them is hiding something, Zhou An simply doesn't check it himself, he asks whatever he wants, but if there is something wrong with what he says, he asks.
Zhou An believed that from the different words they said, it was not difficult to guess what was going on in Wangri Village.
But the old man didn't mean to explain to Zhou An, but after Zhou An asked this question, the smile on the old man's face faded, as if Zhou An asked something that shouldn't be asked.
Last night, Zhou An had already told Zhang Chuxue and the two of them that something was wrong with the old man, and when he heard Zhou An take the initiative to ask this question, he also stopped the movements in his hands, and just looked at the old man quietly, wanting to hear how he explained.
After laying a few more bricks, the old man's hand also stopped, turned around and walked to the position of the gate, and pulled the gate open.
In the surprised eyes of Zhou An and the others, the old man actually knelt down for the villagers.
"I'm sorry for you, I promised you to find you help, I broke my promise."
"The temptation of that kind of stable life outside is too great for me, if it weren't for the three of them coming to our village this time, maybe I wouldn't be coming back in my life."
Damn?!
Which one is this singing, and how did it become the old man looking for helpers for the villagers?
Zhou An walked quickly to the gate and looked at the old man and the villagers with an unbelievable expression, but he saw the disappointed expressions on the faces of the villagers, as if what the old man said was true.
"Uncle, what the hell is going on, in front of so many villagers, you should make it clear to us, right?"
The old man looked at Zhou An with a guilty face, the situation in Wangri Village he said was basically true, but he was not the village he fled from, but the village he fled with the help of the villagers, in order to let the old man go out to find a helper for the village to come back and get rid of the big guy who came out of the mountains.
Seeing the villagers nodding, Zhou An was completely stunned, but he had just learned some different answers at Wang Chenglong's house.
Just as Zhou An was about to say the things he knew at Wang Chenglong's house, a young man suddenly ran over in a panic.
"Oh no, Wang Chenglong's mother's grave has been picked up, and Wang Chenglong's wife is gone!"
