Chapter 243: Wipe the Inscription
By the next day, the goose feather snow finally turned into thin crystal snowflakes, which fell like elves. But the heavy snow overnight also covered the entire Wangjia Village with a layer of "snow quilt" wrapped in silver. The pure snow washed away the filth and hustle and bustle of the village, and the entire Wangjia Village was immersed in peace and tranquility for a while.
"The night snow spirit dances in the sky, and the world is full of silver frost", Wangjia Village, which has snowed, is not only quiet, but also the rare snow scene in the south gives Tang Zhan and others who came for the first time a sense of freshness and fun......
"Ah, it snowed so hard all night, it's so beautiful-" Lu Jing saw a "silver wrap" outside the door, with a bright smile on her face, and ran out of the room playfully and lively.
"Jing'er, be careful, don't fall—" Tang Zhan said worriedly in the back.
Zhao Zichuan and Li Yuru also walked out at this time, Li Yuru looked at the heavy snow outside the door, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Here...... It's the snow in the north, isn't it?"
"Yuru, haven't you seen it before?" Zhao Zichuan couldn't help but ask.
Li Yuru paused, and then said: "After my parents died, I have been living in Yangzhou. In Yangzhou, although there has been snow, it has never been so heavy. The snow was falling and the whole village was immersed in a sense of tranquility, which was really nice and nice......"
Li Yuru rarely expressed his true emotions in front of him, and Zhao Zichuan himself was a little uncomfortable, he just silently looked at Li Yuru's slightly expectant eyes, and his thoughts fluctuated in his heart......
However, the next situation. suddenly woke up the immersed Zhao Zichuan. Zhao Zichuan was still looking at Li Yuru's side face with affectionate eyes, and a sudden cold feeling arose on the left side of his face - I saw a snowball hit Zhao Zichuan's left face heavily, and Zhao Zichuan was "woken up" at once.
The "snowball cannonball" just now was naturally thrown by his close friend Lu Jing. Zhao Zichuan looked back at Lu Jing's hippie smile at him, and immediately became "angry", he picked up a snowball on the ground, threw it back at Lu Jing, and said: "Dominatrix, you're still -"
Lu Jing looked at Zhao Zichuan with a smile on her face, dodging the snowball thrown by Zhao Zichuan. While hiding, he laughed and said, "Ha Luha, Zhao Zichuan." Big fool, Zhao Zichuan, big fool, Zhao Zichuan. I'm afraid of my wife......"
"This abominable dominatrix. Don't run-" Zhao Zichuan saw that Lu Jing was humiliating himself vigorously, where could he bear it, and continued to pick up the snowball on the ground, and threw it towards Lu Jing while chasing.
Li Yuru watched it from the side, and also laughed shyly. Tang Zhan couldn't control Lu Jing and Zhao Zichuan, so he had to watch the two of them frolic stupidly-anyway, they all came over like this along the way......
Lu Jing and Zhao Zichuan continued to circulate, and Lu Jing borrowed one big tree after another. kept avoiding Zhao Zichuan, and soon she was sensitive. disappeared from Zhao Zichuan's field of vision in an instant.
"Damn, where did this dominatrix go?" Zhao Zichuan muttered to himself, looking at the big trees in front of him, but he didn't see Lu Jing, and Zhao Zichuan was also very unwilling.
However, Zhao Zichuan didn't notice at all that he was standing under a big tree, and Lu Jing himself had already gone around behind the trunk of the big tree where Zhao Zichuan was standing.
Zhao Zichuan still didn't find Lu Jing, Lu Jing quietly poked her head out of the trunk, smiled secretly at Zhao Zichuan's back, and then kicked the trunk in front of him hard, and then quickly slipped away again.
Lu Jing kicked like this, and the trunk of the tree vibrated strongly. Zhao Zichuan also realized it, and immediately looked back, only to see that Lu Jing's figure had already rushed out. However, what Zhao Zichuan didn't expect was that he himself focused on Lu Jing, and the shaking just now caused the snow on the trees to suddenly fall. Before Zhao Zichuan could raise his head, the snow falling on his head fell down, and soon the snow wrapped himself tightly and turned into a "snowman".
Seeing such a funny scene, Tang Zhan, Lu Jing and Li Yuru couldn't help laughing. Lu Jing even laughed and said: "Ha Lu ......Ha
However, Zhao Zichuan, who was hit by the snow, immediately jumped out of the "snow shell" that wrapped him, and scolded loudly: "Dominatrix, I will never let you go!" After speaking, Zhao Zichuan put his hands together, and the snowball smashed into Lu Jing on the opposite side in turn.
Lu Jing looked at Zhao Zichuan as if he was going to "fight" with him, and immediately ran away again, and at the same time picked up the snowball on the ground and fought back towards Zhao Zichuan. In this way, Lu Jing and Zhao Zichuan did not give in to each other, and centered on the place where Tang Zhan was standing, and confronted each other in circles. There were also snowballs flying in mid-air, and some even smashed on Tang Zhan's head and face.
"Oh, okay, it's endless...... Tang Zhan protected his face vigorously and dissuaded him vigorously. But getting these two die-hard friends to stop is even harder than ascending to the sky. And one of them is his own lover, and the other is his best brother, Tang Zhan really doesn't know who to help now, so he can only let the two of them continue to make trouble......
Lu Jing and Zhao Zichuan were still "dueling", and at this time, the two brothers Lu Zhao and Lu Meng also got up. The two of them didn't know what was going on outside the corridor, but they only heard the constant noise outside. So Lu Zhao walked in front and opened the door. However, what he never dreamed of was that as soon as he spoke, he said, "Get up early today...... a snowball smashed directly on his face.
As soon as he went out early in the morning, he was greeted by a piece of coldness, which really made Lu Zhao depressed. When the people frolicking outside saw this scene, they immediately quieted down, and the people involved, Lu Jing and Zhao Zichuan, were even more stunned, especially Lu Jing, because the person who smashed his brother's face just now was himself.
"Brother, it's early, hehe......" Lu Jing threw away the snowball in her hand and said with a wry smile.
Lu Zhao picked up the snowball that smashed on his face with one hand, and then said angrily: "Not bad." When I woke up in the morning, I was in good spirits......"
"Brother, I was wrong,......" Lu Jing said with a guilty smile......
Jokes are jokes. Everyone got up, and naturally it was time to get down to business. Lu Zhao tidied up his body, and then gathered everyone: "Okay, everyone is still clear about today's matter......
"Zhilu Dao, Zhilu Dao, we are going to see Miss Wang's grave......" Lu Jing said excitedly on the side.
Tang Zhan looked at Lu Jing's somewhat "cynical" appearance, and immediately reminded softly: "Jing'er, we are here to see the tomb. It's not going to a temple fair. Visiting the deceased is a serious matter, whether it is someone related to you or not, you must not smile so disrespectfully......"
"Oh......" Lu Jing replied with a little shame. In front of Tang Zhan, she looked down at Tang Zhan like a little daughter-in-law who made a mistake.
"You guys got up so early?" At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind everyone—it was the village chief Wang Yuming who came to greet him early in the morning.
"Hello Uncle Wang—" Everyone greeted in unison.
Wang Yuming walked in front of everyone and said slowly: "Lao Sue promised you yesterday. I want to take you to see the grave of Miss Wang...... Mr. Wang Zhongkui should have been accompanying his 'daughter' by the grave at this time. After a while, let's still have some respect, Mr. Wang Zhongkui is not a person who likes to be lively......"
"Please rest assured Uncle Wang, the juniors will have a sense ......of proportion," Lu Zhao responded, but remembering the scene of Lu Jing and Zhao Zichuan frolicking just now, Lu Zhao couldn't help but have a trace of worry in his heart.
"Then Lao Suo will rest assured......" Wang Yuming turned around slowly, and then led Tang Zhan and the others, "Let's go, Lao Suo, let's take you to Miss Wang's grave to see you......"
Thereupon. Everyone slowly followed behind Wang Yuming and walked slowly in the direction of the destination......
Because of yesterday, Lu Jing and others drove away the 'Tangying Society' bandits. The men, women and children in the village all knew the way, and when everyone walked all the way, all the villagers also cast envious eyes......
However, everyone didn't care too much about this, but completely followed the path of Village Chief Wang. Miss Wang's grave is on a small hillside behind the village, and once you get up the hill, the snow will become more and more abundant. Because they didn't know the potholes on the slopes of the road, although Tang Zhan and the others followed behind Wang Yuming, because they couldn't see the mountain road covered by snow, they all held hands and supported each other on the mountain......
It took a lot of effort, and everyone finally came to the destination they should have come. It was just a very ordinary clearing on the hillside, and the snow on the ground was slightly smaller than on the hillside path. Not far from the clearing, there was a piece that was completely uncovered with snow, or rather, the snow had been swept away. And in the open space where there was no snow, there sat a silver-haired old man in a black robe. In front of the old man is an ordinary tombstone, and from the past to the present, the old man has been staring at the tombstone in front of him. There was still a light snow in the sky, and the cold wind blew from time to time, but the old man didn't seem to feel cold, and there was no sign of shivering on his body, and the whole person sat there like a fairy.
Naturally, the silver-haired old man didn't need to say it, it should be the old Mr. Wang Zhongkui described by Wang Yuming yesterday. And the stone tablet in front of Wang Zhongkui is naturally the tomb of his daughter, the mysterious Wang girl whose name is unknown to outsiders.
Everyone came here at this time, and for some reason a sense of awe-inspiring was spontaneous, maybe they saw the stone tablet in front of them, or maybe they saw the old man Wang Zhongkui "standing tall"......
Wang Yuming slowly brought Tang Zhan and the others to Wang Zhongkui's side, and after signaling Tang Zhan and the others to wait quietly for a while, Wang Yuming whispered to the old man Wang Zhongkui in front of him: "Mr. Zhongkui, someone has come to visit your daughter's grave again......
Wang Zhongkui stared at his daughter's stele for a while, then closed his eyes again, and heard Wang Yuming's question beside him, so he replied softly: "Did you help our benefactor in Wangjia Village?" I heard from the neighbor next door yesterday...... Since someone came to see my daughter's grave, it can be regarded as relieving the loneliness of the old man and the little girl, so let them see it......"
"That's still Mr. Xie Lu Xie Zhongkui......" Wang Yu thanked him clearly.
"Mr. Xie Lu, Mr. Xie Wang—" Tang Zhan, Lu Jing and the others also replied in unison.
Wang Zhongkui slowly opened his eyes at some point, and then looked sideways at Tang Zhan, Lu Jing and the others. However, what I didn't expect was that this old man Wang Zhongkui, like yesterday's village chief Wang Yuming, didn't react much when he looked at other faces, but when he saw Tang Zhan, his eyes stopped on Tang Zhan for a long time, and he seemed to be slightly thoughtful.
Being looked at by others like this again, Tang Zhan became a little uncomfortable, although he couldn't say what he was doing, but there was always an inexplicable sense of unhappiness in his heart.
This time Lu Jing noticed it very seriously, when the village chief looked at Tang Zhan with that strange look yesterday, Lu Jing thought it was just a coincidence, but this time even Wang Zhongkui's seniors looked at Tang Zhan with similar eyes, Lu Jing couldn't help but have a thought in her heart: The people of Wangjia Village seemed to have a special impression of Tang Zhan......
Wang Zhongkui saw Tang Zhan for a while, and seemed to have something in his heart, but he didn't say it in front of everyone. Immediately, Wang Zhongkui also turned his head, and then said silently: "Okay, since you are all benefactors of Wangjia Village, the old man will also treat him politely, as long as the old man can answer, the old man will definitely answer for you......"
The crowd did not immediately ask questions, but first walked to Miss Wang's grave and looked at the stone tablet.
And this stele is not as wonderful as everyone thought before, it is just an ordinary stele. If you want to talk about the unique place, I also talked about it yesterday, that is, part of the text on the stele was erased by Mr. Wang Zhongkui.
Sure enough, the stele originally wrote the five words "Tomb of Wang Moumou", but the two words "so-and-so" were erased by Wang Zhongkui himself. According to the previous village chief, the reason why Wang Zhongkui did this was to hide the name and background of Miss Wang and the young man.
Lu Zhao looked at the stone tablet whose handwriting had been erased, and asked Wang Zhongkui softly: "Senior Wang, the words on this stone tablet ......?"
"It was ......erased by the old man," Wang Zhongkui said lightly, "Because the son-in-law had something happened outside, and the people in the village were grateful to him, and they didn't want outsiders to know his footprints here, so the old man erased the name on the little girl's tablet and left a 'Wang' surname empty......"
"But isn't there an outsider who has asked the same question before...... Li Yuru also asked, "And that person, Mr. Wang, you told him all the truth......
When Wang Zhongkui heard this, he seemed to recall something, and after a slight pause, he continued to say softly: "That's because of some reason, the old man told him the truth, and the old man also believes that he won't tell the truth......
Lu Jing thought for a while, and then asked, "Do you know who that outsider is?"
Wang Zhongkui nodded lightly: "The old man is naturally clear, so he will tell him about it, but it is inconvenient for the old man to tell you the name of this person......"
"We also know this......" Lu Jing replied with some disappointment.
Zhao Zichuan stared at the stele for a long time on the opposite side, looking at the name that had been erased on the stele, and he kept thinking about the mysterious girl Wang in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Miss Wang, who are you, and what happened to you......
Tang Zhan was the only one who silently didn't squeak much, he just looked at the stone tablet in front of him intently. Somehow, Tang Zhan always had a faint sadness in his heart, looking at the stone tablet in front of him, Tang Zhan had an indescribable sense of depression in his heart.
After Wang Zhongkui answered everyone's questions, he turned his gaze to the stone tablet. Seeing that Tang Zhan was also looking at the stele with affectionate eyes, Wang Zhongkui suddenly had a special feeling for Tang Zhan.
This time, Tang Zhan didn't notice that Wang Zhongkui was looking at him with strange eyes, but Lu Jing did. She has always been quick-witted, but until now she couldn't figure out why the people in the village would cast that kind of strange look at Tang Zhan......
However, in the current situation, Lu Jing wants to find out the truth of the matter. Yesterday she thought that there was another way to learn all the truth-to find a way to meet with the people of the "Tang Ying Society" again.
So, Lu Jing slowly walked to the village chief's side again, and then asked, "Uncle Wang, let me ask you a question, do you know how far the headquarters of the 'Tangying Society' is from Wangjia Village?"
Wang Yuming listened to Lu Jing's sudden question, and the whole person was a little stunned...... (To be continued......)
