Chapter 193: A New Discovery
"I heard that a lot of dead people were dug up in the moat. Li Long said with palpitations, "Originally, it was a floating corpse floating up, but who knew that this corpse still had a thread on its body." One after the other...... Nearly 100 corpses came out. ”
After saying that, he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
It was as if someone had blown a breath of cold air behind him.
As for the small inn behind him, it was long gone, and they were all gathered on the edge of the moat.
The smoke city, which was silent in the past, seems to have boiled overnight.
"Damn it! I'm not afraid that thing won't be clean. Li Long looked at the empty shop, and couldn't help but curse, but when he turned his head, he looked at Su Jing coldly, and hurriedly raised his hand and slapped his mouth, "Look at my stinky mouth! Grandma Su, do you want to go to the store to sit down? Do you want to drink tea or coffee? I have a treat, Brother Su has been living with me for the past few days." We went together, we went to run errands together. So his grandma is my grandma!"
Before the words fell, he was pulled by Su Jing.
"What are you doing?" Li Long glared at Su Jing with some puzzlement.
Su Jing ignored him, but asked Su Ran, "Ancestor, what should we do now?"
"What should I do?" Su Ran looked at the direction of the moat, and then looked at Li Long, who looked aggrieved, and said with a smile, "We want to go to the moat to have a look, do you want to go with Xiaolong?"
Having a local by your side will save you a lot of trouble.
Su Ran smiled with crooked eyes, looking kind.
Coupled with her fashionable dress as an old lady in the city, Li Long scratched his head a little embarrassed, "Anyway, I'm fine, if Grandma Su needs me." I'm just going to be a guide and make, hey, hey, it's free!"
Su Ran also laughed along.
The two of them followed Su Ran to the edge of the moat, and Su Jing deliberately took a step behind and patted Li Long on the shoulder vigorously.
That strength hurt so much that Li Long couldn't help but grin his teeth.
He's not stupid, he's shrewd.
Strange things happened in Yancheng one after another, this Su Jing is so powerful, and he still obeys the old lady's words.
Especially at the moment, she is in a semi-protective posture, and one arm is still blocking the other party's surroundings, for fear that the person next to her will touch her.
Li Long also felt more and more in his heart that Su Ran was not simple, or that the origin was not small.
With the look in his eyes, Li Long ran up in three steps and two steps, "Dodge, dodge." What's there to see? Haven't you ever seen a dead man?"
Seeing Su Ran looking at him, he replied with a mouthful of big white teeth, which was quite a bit of an invitation.
That's kind of interesting.
Su Ran's eyes couldn't help but bend again.
However, Li Long's noisy shouting had some effect, and many people took the initiative to give way to it.
Su Ran and the others were about to go over, when they saw a team of people walking out of it.
The person who came first made a gesture to everyone, "Fathers and fellow villagers, thank you for your concern for the Sun family." However, the Sun family has white things to do today, so please make it convenient for everyone. On another day, I will invite you to the Sun Family Restaurant for a banquet. ”
These words are crepe, but they make many people move.
"Bright temptation. Li Long muttered quietly.
The people inside gradually came out, but they still muttered and discussed as they walked.
"It's a banquet for nothing, this Sun family is really kind. ”
"It's a pity that good people don't have good rewards, and this Sun family has been mourning for days. If you want me to watch the wine and not drink it. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Oh, you don't know, do you? A few days ago, a female corpse was picked up from this moat, and guess what? The female corpse turned out to be lifelike, with a bulging belly, and it is said that she was pregnant when she died. There are so many dead bodies today, all of them belong to the Sun family. Are you evil or not?"
"How do you know that the female corpse belongs to the Sun family?"
"Didn't I listen to the people of Yizhuang? They went to Sun's house to report the funeral before, how could they think they could get a few copper plates, who knew that they were bombed out. Speaking of which, this female corpse is quite pitiful. Since she was salvaged, she has been exposed to the sun on the shore for seven days, and if it weren't for a mark on her body, everyone wouldn't know that she was a member of the Sun family. I heard that she is still a young grandmother. It's a pity that one corpse has two lives. ”
The crowd walked out babbling and watched the man go away.
Su Ran couldn't help but stop a person and asked, "Then where was the female corpse transported after?"
"Where did it go? There's a lot of stuff in this big house. ”
Everyone chattered, as if they had found a breakthrough all of a sudden, and kept selling their knowledge.
"What? You are also interested in the affairs of the Sun family? ”
A man in a navy coat asked.
"It's really not, the Sun family is one of the best in our smoke city, so it is inevitable that they will pay attention to one or two. Su Ran said with a smile.
The man sighed, "Not about you, even us." This smoke city has been lifeless lately, and everyone doesn't even have a pastime. Although this matter of the Sun family is not good, it is a relief from boredom!"
"......" Before Su Ran could reply, he heard someone shouting behind him, "Old Ancestor Su?"
Su Ran turned around and saw that it was Sun Rong and Sun Sheng.
The man standing behind her saw the two of them and hurried to run.
was still hit by a shoe thrown by Sun Sheng and hit the junior, "Little lady, dare to talk nonsense about anything, and relieve boredom......"
Sun Rong was a little embarrassed and explained to Su Ran, "Brother Sheng has been in the Sun family for a lifetime, and the Sun family is our home. I really can't listen to these disrespectful words. ”
Su Ran nodded, "Understood, didn't you two go home?"
"How can we rest assured that such a big thing happened to the Sun family, why don't we come over to see what we can help. Sun Rong said in a low voice, "The patriarch is also old, and the little young masters have all flown out." There are only us old bones left, and if we hide again, how sad his old man will be. ”
"Indeed it should be. Su Ran said as he walked towards the crowd.
Sun Rong and Sun Sheng and others followed closely behind, and Su Jing and Li Long were behind them.
Xu was dealing with the Sun family's chief housekeeper for the first time.
Li Long has stopped a lot.
When they arrived, they saw corpses all over the ground, and when they looked up, there were salvaged boats on the moat.
"What's the matter? This corpse hasn't been salvaged yet?"
"There are a few more. Sun Rong looked regretful.
Su Ran stared at him for a while, feeling that he couldn't see any flaws, and cast his eyes on the moat.
There are quite a few ships coming and going.
The voice was also a little noisy, and Su Ran looked at it at a glance, only feeling that it was compared to those salvage boats.
The canopy in the midst of them was somewhat conspicuous.
"Whose boat is that?" Su Ran glanced at Sun Rong beside him, and Sun Rong hurriedly said, "It's our master's canopy boat." He hadn't been out of the yard for decades. I am afraid that some people will see that it will increase the trouble. ”
Su Ran nodded, and through the looming gap in the curtain of the boat, he could indeed see a chubby figure, which should be Patriarch Sun.
It's just that his face is sweating profusely right now, but he doesn't bother to wipe it, and keeps telling the people next to him something.
"Old Ancestor Su, do you want me to find someone to go and talk to the head of the family?" asked Sun Rong.
"No need!" Su Ran shook his head, "You all go and get busy." Let's just see for ourselves. ”
"That's fine. Then we'll get busy first. Su Lao Zu has any orders, just speak. Sun Rong was not polite, and there were people constantly calling him in the distance, "Steward Sun?"
"Here we are. Sun Rong said as he walked in the direction of the boat, and did not forget to instruct the young man beside him, "If Su Laozu wants to see something, even if she is allowed to see it, no one is allowed to stop her!"
"Yes!" Several Su family members on the shore hurriedly responded.
Li Long's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "Grandma Su, what are you from, why are the Sun family's chief housekeepers so polite to you?"
"I, a relative of the Sun family. Su Ran said casually.
Li Long's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and he was about to say something, but he was stopped by Su Jing again, "What are you doing, knowing too much will not do you any good." ”
"I ......," Li Long glared at him unwillingly.
Su Jing frowned, "I think you have forgotten your third uncle." ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Long suddenly calmed down a lot.
The banks of the moat are a bit steep, but there is a long, gentle slope that connects the river to the street.
The corpses were neatly arranged in this relatively neat corridor, one by one, lifelike, like living people.
"What is this?" Su Jing stepped forward and looked at the corpses of several people, but he didn't see anything unusual.
The only thing on each of them is a little different on their right wrist, and each of them hangs a small wooden plaque, each with traditional Arabic numerals written on it.
As if calculating something.
Su Ran frowned and looked at the wooden sign for a while, and the words engraved on it were crooked. Su Ran said hesitantly, "It looks like ...... ID tags. ”
Dear ones, tomorrow morning at 7 a.m., replace *********** hope to understand...... Thanks for the support.
"It's a banquet for nothing, this Sun family is really kind. ”
"It's a pity that good people don't have good rewards, and this Sun family has been mourning for days. If you want me to watch the wine and not drink it. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Oh, you don't know, do you? A few days ago, a female corpse was picked up from this moat, and guess what?
