"Uncle, I'll sleep with you tonight!" Hu Jiu said to Deng Jianjun with a mischievous smile.

Deng Jianjun laughed and said, "Okay! Ah Jiu sleeps with his uncle tonight." ”

Since Deng Jianjun watched his sister leave, he still deeply remembered the look in his sister's eyes when she entrusted Hu Jiu to him, she was so helpless and so nostalgic, she didn't even have time to feed Hu Jiu a mouthful of hot milk and left gloomily.

Over the years, he has pampered Hu Jiu as his own son, this poor child has lost his mother since he was a child, and his father has disappeared and has not been heard from since.

But there is a deep resentment buried in his own heart, and he doesn't dare to talk to outsiders, just having nightmares day after day.

Hu Jiu thought to himself: "The last time my uncle mentioned my mother's story when he was talking in his sleep, my uncle kept shouting my mother's name and said that he wanted to avenge my mother! ”

After dinner, Hu Jiu returned from practicing outside, he had been out of Hantan for several days, and his cultivation had not made any progress, as if the outside world really did not have a trace of aura, and he could not practice at all, which made Hu Jiu very helpless and anxious.

When he returned home, his uncle had fallen asleep, and Hu Jiu also lay quietly beside his uncle, feeling the breath of the man beside him, thinking that he had supported himself since he was a child, and raised himself with his grandmother, Hu Jiu suddenly felt very relieved, as if he didn't have to be afraid of anything beside his uncle, even if his uncle's snoring sounded so kind.

Just when Hu Jiu was about to fall asleep in a daze, Deng Jianjun suddenly shouted: "The surname is Chen, you wait! You wait! Lily, my brother is useless, my brother didn't protect you well, my brother is late!"

"Why did you hurt Lily?!Why?" Deng Jianjun's pillow was already soaked with tears.

Hu Jiu heard these words, and his heart was full of anger, the surname Chen! It was the surname Chen who killed his mother. His eyes widened, his fists clenched tightly, and his palms were about to pinch blood, before he gradually calmed down and said secretly: "The surname is Chen, I, Hu Jiu, will not let you go!"

Hu Jiu pinched the trick with his left hand, and a light cyan soft wood aura submerged into his uncle Deng Jianjun's heavenly spirit cover, and soon Deng Jianjun quieted down, even the snoring disappeared, and he continued to sleep soundly.

On the morning of the second day, my grandmother made breakfast, and when we were eating, Hu Jiu said to Deng Jianjun: "Uncle, can you tell me about my mother?"

Deng Jianjun looked at Hu Jiu in surprise, and replied with a twinkle in his eyes: "There is nothing to say, you hurry up and eat, and after eating, follow me to herd the cattle." ”

Grandma also looked at Hu Jiu with strange eyes, and was silent for a long time.

Hu Jiu couldn't help the question in his heart, so he opened his mouth and continued: "Grandma, uncle, I know that my mother was killed, can you tell me who it is?"

At this time, Deng Jianjun had a trace of panic on his face, quickly put down the dishes and chopsticks, and hurriedly said, "Mom, I'm going to take the cow." ”

Grandma's eyes changed and she said, "Silly boy, don't talk nonsense, it's not something you should inquire about." ”

Grandma and uncle didn't tell themselves, was it because they were too young or afraid that they would be sad? Hu Jiu thought to himself, so he didn't continue to ask!

But Hu Jiu knew that there was a Chenjia Village nearby, and maybe the person who killed his mother was in Chenjia Village, so he planned to check it himself.

The five-kilometer journey, for Hu Jiu today, is like a fly all the way, without the slightest sense of tiredness, this is the advantage of a cultivator.

After coming to Chenjia Village, Hu Jiu wandered back and forth in the village, not knowing where to start.

When the villagers saw a stranger entering the village, they all raised their vigilance and kept looking at Hu Jiu, but after looking closely, they found that it was just a child in their teens, so they all relaxed.

When Hu Jiu walked to the second alley of the village.

An aunt with a very kind face suddenly asked Hu Jiu suspiciously, "Child, who are you looking for?"

Hu Jiu scratched his head and said, "Auntie, I'm looking for Deng Li, do you know where her family lives?"

"Who are you?" said the aunt, whose face changed dramatically.

Hu Jiu looked at this aunt with kind eyebrows, not like a bad person.

Then he said with a sour heart: "I am her son!"

The kind aunt was stunned, looked left and right, and quickly pulled Hu Jiu into her yard and said:

"Kid, I just saw that you looked a little like Xiaoli, how did you come here alone?

As soon as Hu Jiu heard it, he knew that this aunt must know about his mother, and he also knew that he lived with his uncle.

Then he asked respectfully: "Auntie, I know that my mother was killed, can you tell me who killed her?"

The kind aunt lowered her eyes and sighed: "Child, you are still young, you don't care about the affairs of adults, things have passed for so many years." ”

"I've grown up, I haven't had a mother since I was a child, I miss her so much, I must figure out who killed her!" Hu Jiu gritted his teeth with tears in his eyes and said.

The kind aunt looked at Hu Jiu's pitiful appearance, and couldn't help but have a sour nose, wiped the tears that couldn't help but flow from her eyes, and said with a dodgy look: "Good boy, your mother only went to give birth to you, don't listen to other people's nonsense." ”

Hu Jiu looked at the kind aunt's dodging eyes and knew that things were not so simple.

Then he continued: "Auntie, you must know my mother, and you have a good relationship with her, please tell me the truth, okay?

Hearing this, the psychological defense of the kind aunt was completely broken, and she couldn't help crying and said slowly: "Twelve years ago, Xiaoli, your mother was indeed killed!"

After speaking, she hurriedly added: "Child, we can't afford to mess with this family now, so don't go to the bottom of it! Go home and live with your uncle, people can't be resurrected after death, this matter is over. ”

At this time, Hu Jiu was unusually calm, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Auntie, it was the person surnamed Chen who killed my mother, right? Don't worry, I'm only twelve years old, I won't be impulsive, I just want to know the truth." ”

The kind aunt was very shocked and said, "How do you know!?"

Then he looked at Hu Jiu suspiciously, and from his firm eyes, he saw Hu Jiu's calmness and rationality like an adult.

Then he turned his head and whispered: "You do have the qualifications to know the truth about this matter, but after I tell you, don't do stupid things, otherwise your mother's hard work will be wasted." The kind aunt couldn't stop shedding tears as she spoke, and hurriedly wiped them with her hands.

"Twelve years ago, your mother was about to give birth, but your father suddenly disappeared in a foreign country, and your mother was alone at home, and the village midwife and sixth wife soon came to your house to help your mother deliver the baby. ”

"Your mother gave birth to you very quickly, and everything went well, except that you were born with a ball of flesh wrapped in a lot of white stuff on the outside, and you were not heard crying when you were born. Speaking of this, the kind aunt became more and more excited, and looked Hu Jiu up and down.

"The sixth woman is also the goddess of the village, and when she saw your mother giving birth to a ball of meat, she fled in fright, saying that you were a curse that would bring bad luck and ominous to the village. ”

"Who knew that it happened to be heard by the three brothers of the Chen family in the village, the three brothers of the Chen family had a feud with your family, and your father was not at home at the time, so they ......"

They came up with a vicious idea, and the three brothers of the Chen family began to shout in the village, saying that the Hu family gave birth to a freak and would bring disaster to the Chen family. ”

"Later, when I went to see your mother, I saw that you were really in a ball of meat, so I had the courage to take a knife and cut the fat wrapped outside, and you were a big fat boy inside, and then you cried, and your mother smiled happily when she saw you. ”

"At this time, the three brothers of the Chen family rushed into your house with a large group of people, demanding that your mother hand you over, saying that they would sacrifice you to the river god in order to avoid the disaster in Chenjia Village. ”

"Your mother has just given birth, her body is very weak, but she still protects you to the death, although the people in the village screamed hard, but seeing that you are a normal baby, no one has stepped forward to do it, the three brothers of the Chen family saw that the plan could not succeed, so they took the initiative to fight for you, a large group of people pulled your mother, and the three brothers of the Chen family took advantage of the chaos to beat your mother with a wooden stick A lot of sticks, I saw that something was wrong and hurriedly went to the stubborn stone village to find your uncle over. ”

"But when I brought your uncle back, your mother was already lying in a pool of blood, still holding you tightly in her hands. Speaking of which, the kind aunt couldn't stop crying.
