Chapter XIX List

A few crows flapped their wings and walked through the low eaves, Tianyu finally couldn't hold it anymore, and said, "Mina, why don't we go back first!" Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

"Look at your little bit of talent, you're embarrassed to say that you're going to Babel! Mina's face was calm, and she looked around as she spoke, and suddenly shouted in a loud voice, "Is anyone there?"

But there was still no response, only echoes drifting back and forth.

Tianyu: "Look, it's no one! Let's go." ”

"Okay, let's leave a note for Xiaolu and give her the list by the way, so that it won't be a wasted trip. Mina finally gave up, and as she spoke, she took out the note given by Tianyu, and then took out a pen.

"Ah~!!"

Suddenly, from not far away came a woman's shout, the voice was sharp and penetrating, like a trapped beast out of the cage, depressed and angry, and extremely poignant, instantly breaking the tranquility of the village, for a while, the ancient trees beside the village road, swaying with the wind, the leaves rustling, even the lake rippled, sparkling.

"What sound?" Tianyu couldn't help blurting out, and before he knew it, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat.

Mina naturally heard it, put away the pen and paper at the moment, and said, "Quick, go and see!" As she spoke, she ran towards the source of the sound.

Tianyu didn't have such a strong curiosity, and wanted to stop Mina, but she ran fast, and in a blink of an eye, she turned into the alley, so Tianyu had to chase after her.

Mina's footsteps were so fast that Tianyu could barely keep up with her, so he had to follow her footsteps, running along the twisting country roads.

Suddenly, Mina's footsteps stopped abruptly, Tianyu panicked instantly, and said that there should be no accident, so he hurriedly hurried up to catch up.

After rushing through the intersection ahead, an old temple suddenly appeared in front of me, the wall of this temple is about two bodies high, the triangular top, above the pitch-black roof, carved eighteen Shinra real figures, with different expressions, lifelike, lined up along the ridge.

The wall under the roof is bright yellow, slightly dull, there is a large door in the front, it seems that it should be made of iron, and it is also painted with thick red paint, and the plaque of the lintel reads: Yu's ancestral hall, these four letters.

At this moment, Mina was standing in front of the ancestral hall, looking at the gate in a daze, and it was obvious that the earth-shattering cry just now came from this ancestral hall.

Mina stood for a moment, then stepped towards the door, knocking. This ancestral hall is a gathering place for clan discussions, and there are many secrets that cannot be leaked by the clan, and outsiders are generally strictly forbidden to trespass. Tianyu was about to stop drinking, but saw that Mina had already stepped forward and pulled the knocker.

Sonorous clang~ The metal knocker slammed against the iron door, making a sharp sound, which was extremely harsh in this quiet village. After a few moments, there was no response.

Tianyu: "It's not good, otherwise, let's go back first." ”

Mina not only did not listen to the persuasion, but intensified, and immediately opened her voice and shouted: "Is there anyone~, is anyone there?"

Unexpectedly, this time the iron door babbled, and opened a half-body-wide slit, revealing an old man with white hair.

The old man bent his back and said in a dumb voice, "Little girl, what's the matter?"

Mina smiled: "Hehe, grandpa, I'm looking for Yu Lu, is she there?"

"Yu Lu, oh, wait a minute!" As he spoke, the old man closed the door, and after nearly ten minutes, the door opened again, and the old man smiled slightly, slightly apologetic, and said, "I'm sorry to keep you two waiting." ”

"It's alright, old man. Mina smiled and prepared to enter.

Unexpectedly, the old man blocked the door, without the slightest intention of letting her in, and then said: "Yu Lu and her family have unfortunately returned from the back door just now, you can go directly to her house to find her!"

"Uh......"

When the old man had finished speaking, he closed the door. Mina and Tianyu had to turn around and walk back, and at this time, they suddenly found that the originally gloomy village was lively in a blink of an eye, many houses had opened their doors and windows, and some were curling smoke on the eaves. On the originally deserted path, there are also frolicking children and old people walking.

Mina was already suspicious in her heart, and soon came to Yu Lu's house again, and was about to reach out and knock on the door, but the door opened on its own. Mother Yu closed the door, with a pleasant face, and said, "Hey, this is not Mina, come in!" Then she also saw Tianyu and said, "Handsome guy, could it be that you are the younger brother of the one who has reached heaven?"

Tianyu didn't think it was strange, presumably Yu Lu had already mentioned herself, and immediately said hello to her aunt, and entered the house with Mina. I saw that the light in the room was dim, only a small glass window on the right side, slightly brighter, there was a wooden square table, and the square table was further over, there was a partition wall, and there was a wooden ladder leading to the second floor on the partition wall, at this time, Yu Lu also came down from the second floor, wearing sandals, wearing hair scattered, and her face was slightly haggard.

Mina couldn't hold it anymore and said, "Xiaolu, where did you go just now?"

Yu Lu: "In the village ancestral hall!"

"Ancestral Hall, what are you doing?" Mina asked eagerly, apparently not satisfied with such an answer.

At this time, Yu's father was dressed in a sweatshirt and cool pants, holding a plate of peanuts in his left hand and two bottles of beer in his right hand, and walked out from the other side of the partition wall, saying: "What about watching movies! We are poor and remote people, and we are not as good as you in the city, and the only entertainment is for everyone to crowd into the ancestral hall to watch movies." ”

Yu Lu nodded: "Well, watch a movie!"

Tianyu laughed: "Haha! I see, we were almost scared just now." ”

"It's you who scares you, I don't!" Mina said, obviously Yu's father's rhetoric was not enough to convince her, so she rushed to the terrible roar, not to mention the movie theater, even the concert does not have this level of sound.

Yu Lu: "Hehe, by the way, why did you suddenly come!"

Mina remembered what was going on, and hurriedly handed the folded note to Yu Lu: "Na, this is the list of finalists." ”

When Father Yu heard this, he immediately put down the wine bottle: "Come on, come on, show me." ”

Yu Lu took the list and hurriedly handed it to her father. At this time, it was getting dark and the room was not very bright, so Yu's father pressed the switch against the wall, and an incandescent lamp of about 60 watts on the roof was lit.

Mother Yu: "His father, what time is it, just turn on the lights!"

Father Yu: "Look at what you said, I want to scare Lu'er, the two friends from the city, away!", as he spoke, Father Yu unfolded the note, held it in both hands, looked at it carefully, and muttered in his mouth: "I think back then, I almost became a city person, but the village has worked hard to cultivate such a tower, if I leave, it will be too ungrateful, hey! ”

Speaking of this, Father Yu flipped through the note, looked suspicious, and said to Tianyu: "Why, your brother didn't disclose the opponent's information to you?"

Tianyu smiled awkwardly: "Yes, my brother won't show it!"

Father Yu: "Yo, is it my own brother?"

Tianyu: "It's all grown like this, it shouldn't be fake!"

At this time, Mina wrapped her arm around and immediately clamped Tianyu's neck, and asked, "You tell me honestly, have you seen it?" ”

Tianyu's whole head was pressed under Mina's armpit, although it was extremely uncomfortable, but he found that his cheek was against her side chest, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for a while, and said: "Do you think I look like this kind of person, you also know that my brother has never supported us to go to the Tower of Babel, so how can he reveal the opponent's information to me?"

Mina nodded, "Sounds like it makes sense!" and let go of her hand.

Father Yu looked at the list again and said, "But there are a few here that I recognize." ”
