The old man groped for a corner to put down his crutches, sat down at the square table panting, coughed dryly, called for a bowl of wine and drank it all, and then his spirit was very long, and his mouth hummed: "During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and the pedestrians on the road want to break their souls." The shepherd boy pointed to Xinghua Village......

At this time, a shopkeeper said coldly to the old man: "Daddy Sun, your wife has passed away for decades, why are you still thinking about it?"

Old man Sun replied to the question, and said in a hoarse voice: "On the day the child left his mother, he told the little old man to keep an eye on the entrance of the village, and someone would send a large number of gold and silver treasures. Little Lao'er didn't fall in a day. ”

The shopkeeper said: "Daddy Sun, you have been saying this for decades, are you annoying! In the past few decades, you have to come to the store every day to drink a bowl of wine, and you still owe it." ”

Old man Sun said: "If you owe it, there will always be a day when you pay it back!"

The shopkeeper said: "The shopkeeper said, what you are talking about is nonsense, how can anyone in this world send Bai Huahua's silver into your pocket? If you don't pay back, Ming'er won't give you wine!"

Old Man Sun snorted and said angrily: "If you don't drink alcohol, Lao Er will go to the spring you use to make wine to and pee, and see if there are still people who come to drink the wine in your store?"

The shopkeeper glanced at him angrily and said, "You...... You wait, I'll call the shopkeeper here!"

After a while, a middle-aged man came out with a big belly, holding a kitchen knife with a sharp edge in his hand, and pointed at the old man Sun and shouted: "Bad old man, do you want to pay off the debt after drinking?"

Xiao Ying was shocked, his right hand flicked on the edge of the wine glass in his left hand, and the wine glass flew towards the middle-aged man, hit him on the buttocks, and then rebounded and flew back, pinched by him in the palm of his hand.

The middle-aged man felt that something was hit hard on his buttocks, and he lay on his stomach and threw himself on the square table, and the kitchen knife choked on the ground.

Ruchen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The middle-aged man took a look at it and concluded that she had done something behind his back, so he was annoyed and angry, and when he got up, he rushed at her and grabbed her shoulder.

Xiao Ying would let him touch a single hair of his master, picked up a chopstick between the two fingers of his right hand, and threw it at the pillar next to him, and the chopsticks bounced back, hitting the forehead of the middle-aged man.

Xiao Yingyuan didn't want to hurt him, although the chopsticks rebounded violently, they hit the man's forehead horizontally.

The man's mind was dizzy, and he fell backwards with his back to the sky.

Although the old man Sun is old, he still has a front tooth stuck to his mouth, and suddenly saw the middle-aged man fall, opened his mouth wide, and smiled with half of his teeth exposed.

The middle-aged man didn't pay attention, got up and shouted: "Where dare the thief dare to play Lao Tzu, get out of ...... quickly"

After screaming for a long time but there was no movement, he touched his forehead, rubbed his buttocks again, and said with a depressed face: "***, the blue sky has hit a ghost in the daytime!"

Before he hit the chopsticks, his eyes could see clearly, and the two men and women in front of him didn't even move their little fingers, so he concluded that it was not the hands of the two of them.

Xiao Ying's martial arts are superb, and his shots are as fast as lightning, how can he be a mortal man?

After being frightened twice, the middle-aged man did not dare to play a bully at the old man.

After a while, Old Man Sun hummed a little tune, leaned on crutches, stopped one step at a time, and slowly walked out of the restaurant.

Xiao Ying's master and apprentice inquired about the shopkeeper, and they all said that they didn't know Li Quqi. After paying for the wine, he went out and led the horse towards the village.

Ruchen said happily as he walked: "That man is so funny, hehe!"

Xiao Ying said: "Master, you said that the old man Sun came to the restaurant every day to wait for someone to send gold and silver treasures, but is it true?"

Ruchen said: "Listen to his tone, I'm just afraid that it's true." But is there really such a thing in this world?"

Xiao Ying groaned and didn't answer, Huo Ran shouted: "Ah, that old man Sun is also a hundred years old, why don't we ask him about the person we are looking for?"

At that moment, Ruchen followed Xiao Ying on the horse and chased forward.

Turning a corner, the smoke and willow Mo were already in sight, and the old man Sun was leaning on his body in front of him, and he was walking towards the village alley.

Xiao Ying flew over, turned over and went to the ground, and saluted Old Man Sun, "Old man, can I ask you something?"

Old Man Sun continued to walk forward for two or three steps, only then did he wake up like a dream, raised a wrinkled old face, glanced at Xiao Ying, and turned his ears sideways.

Xiao Ying knew that he hadn't heard clearly, so he repeated the question in his ear again.

Old Man Sun was noncommittal, found a place to sit down, and listened intently.

Xiao Ying approached his ear and said, "The junior asks you about someone, my uncle has heard of a person named Li Qu......"

At this point, Old Man Sun's eyes widened all of a sudden, and he exclaimed, "What are you talking about?"

Xiao Ying asked the words again, and Old Man Sun was so excited that his voice trembled: "Li ...... Li Qu?"

Xiao Ying was overjoyed when she heard this, and nodded with a smile.

Old man Sun burst into tears, wiping his tears and trembling as he said, "You are the ...... The man who gave the gold and silver treasures? Ahh

Xiao Ying was stunned, I don't know why he said the name of "Li Qu", the old man was so excited, and said that he was the one who gave gold and silver treasures?

Without waiting for Xiao Ying to ask again, Old Man Sun showed joy in his wrinkles, and said: "Before the death of her grandmother, she told her that anyone from the village who said that she wanted to find Li Qu must be a nobleman, but she can't be slow! Before her daughter-in-law passed away, she also explained this matter bitterly. ”

Xiao Ying interjected: "What does this matter have to do with Li Qu?"

Old man Sun said: "The doll is called Li Qu by her grandmother!"

Xiao Ying was overjoyed when he heard this, and said secretly: "My Dao Shocking Hairpin has disappeared from the rivers and lakes for more than a hundred years, and its owner must be quite difficult to find, I don't want to be found by me easily!"

Old Man Sun continued: "You have sent gold and silver treasures here? In order to wait for you, Lao Er has owed a lot of wine money in the past few decades!"

Xiao Ying had a few taels of silver on his body, or he secretly put it in his pocket that day, and when he heard the words of Old Man Sun, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, thinking that if this hairpin was handed over to him, would he still worry about spending money?

Reaching into his arms and about to take out the hairpin, he then thought: "There are so many people in the world who want to go crazy with the hairpin, just by the words of this old man, I will hand over the hairpin to him, don't be deceived by him." Anyway, there is a village next to it, go into the village and inquire about it, and then make a calculation!"

He turned and led his horse, and strode toward the village.

Old Man Sun shouted behind him, "Hey, young man, where are you going......"

Chickens and dogs bark, the sun is shining in the west, the breeze is blowing, and it is a pleasant rural evening.

Seeing that the firewood in the courtyard of a nearby house was not closed, and the wooden door under the house was hidden, Xiao Ying climbed the stairs and knocked on the door and asked, "Is there anyone?"

He asked several questions, but no one answered.

With a gentle push, the wooden door opened, and he was stunned by the scene in front of him: there were four bloodstains inside the door, a man and a woman lying on the ground, motionless, covered with blood, like a middle-aged couple.

Xiao Ying was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly probed his snort, he was already out of breath, and the necks of the two deceased were bleeding profusely.

He vaguely felt that this matter had a lot to do with the hairpin, but he was afraid that someone had come up with such a vicious trick as killing people in order to prevent the hairpin from being delivered to the master?

He pushed the door of every family and found that no one was alive, regardless of men, women and children, all of them died.

Xiao Ying was sad and angry, and there was no trace of the murderer, Huo saw a woman lying on the ground outside the courtyard wall, seemingly holding a baby in her hand, and the blood beside her stained a large area, and the autumn wind hunted, blowing her clothes.

He approached and saw that the woman's head was almost neck-to-neck, and she looked miserable, but her hands were still holding the baby tightly, and she was bent over it.

The baby was swaddling, and he couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, his small mouth was contained on his mother's **, and the red blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth, and there was still a trace of white milk mixed with it. Reaching out to snort, he was no longer breathing.

The situation, you don't have to think about it, you can guess it, it must be the mother who leaned over to protect her son, and the enemy knife cut off her head from behind her neck, and then made up for the baby in her arms.

At this scene, Xiao Ying's tears poured out all of a sudden. His blood was surging: "The murderer has a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs, and he will do whatever it takes to win the hairpin, even a few months old baby." If you hit me in the future, you will have to be broken into thousands of pieces!"

He respected the mother's love for protecting her son, found a secluded place, and buried the mother and son together.

Ruchen followed Xiao Ying, and in the midst of all the scenes, the horror was beyond words. At this time, she did not collect her tears, and cried softly: "Ying'er, the whole village here has been killed, and there is no clue at the moment, you have no chance to see that woman, how can you take all the instructions of your predecessors seriously." I'll give the hairpin to Old Man Sun, let's go back to the Central Plains!"

Xiao Ying was so sad in his heart, he didn't think about the meaning of Ruchen's words, thinking that Old Man Sun claimed to be Li Qu's son-in-law, and it was probably true that although he was not related to Li Feiyan by blood, he finally had a great relationship.

Suddenly remembering that the treasure in the hairpin is not very accessible to people, Li Feiyan's predecessor said in his suicide note that he must use the blood of his descendants to smear the hairpin on his body before his handwriting can be revealed. This old man Sun has no blood relationship with Li Feiyan, and even if he gives him the hairpin, it is in vain. More than 40 or 50 years have passed since the incident, and Li Feiyan's only beloved daughter, Li Qugu, is no longer alive, and his daughter who married the old man Sun has also passed away.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ying suddenly rejoiced: "Master, in addition to the daughter of the old man Sun's daughter-in-law, Li Qu may have other children! Or if the old man has children and grandchildren, I don't know!"

Ruchen's face sank, and he said, "What? Anyway...... Anyway, if you want to find that woman, maybe she is dead, who is the hairpin handed over? If you give it to her relatives and friends, you don't have to follow the instructions of your elders, you must ...... with her ...... with her See you there!"

Xiao Ying saw that the master was talking with a cowardly expression, and his words were slurred, although he felt weird, he couldn't tell what was wrong.

At the moment, he said: "Let's still ask Old Man Sun, let's think about it again." ”

led the horse, and came to the place where the old man Sun rested.

Seeing Old Man Sun lying on the ground from a distance, Xiao Ying secretly screamed that it was not good, took three steps and did two steps, and ran over. When I got closer, I saw that Old Man Sun was spitting blood from his mouth, lying on the ground and dying.
