Chapter 6 The Grandmother Who Was Thrown to Death
Back at home, in the face of his grandmother's inquiry, Shi Shan just casually replied that he had helped the clan to go into the mountains to find someone, and did not mention the matter of Da Qingniu. Shi Shan thought in his heart that so many people were looking for Wu Liying all over the mountains, and they would definitely be able to find the big green cow that was hidden.
After making dinner, serving grandma and eating, and cleaning up the ropes, he accompanied his grandmother in the yard and gossiped again, which was nothing more than about this year's big competition, obviously grandma also heard that a man in gray suddenly came to stir up the situation.
It wasn't until he helped his grandmother enter the west room and lay down that Wu Zheng returned to the east room where he slept.
Holding back the excitement in my heart, I estimated that my grandmother should be asleep, so I groped for a while, and sure enough, I found a dark red bamboo tube from the kang hole. I remember Wu Liying's repeated advice, Wu Zheng didn't try to open the bamboo tube, just held it in his hand, and while playing, he recalled the scene he saw Wu Liying just now.
The first is Wu Liying's sentence: The bamboo tube hides secrets related to your life experience. What does this mean? Although my mother died when she gave birth, my father was obviously Wu Lipeng, and my grandfather Wu Youshen himself remembered it clearly. Moreover, although my grandmother is over 70 years old and her body is not very strong, she is still alive. How can there be secrets about life in the bamboo tube?
Thinking of this, Wu Zheng couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart.
After all, he was nine years old four years ago, and Wu Zheng remembered Wu Liying's appearance or voice very clearly. However, how come it is that in less than four years, it has become unrecognizable? Even the voice is no longer the voice of Wu Liying, the little food man that people admired back then. Not only did he not know him, but even the people in the clan didn't seem to recognize him. Otherwise, when he suddenly appeared in the ring the day before yesterday, it would be impossible for no one to call his name.
"Could it be a fake?"
Immediately, Wu Zheng gave up the doubts in his heart.
"If it's fake, how can you know that there is this bamboo tube in your own kang hole? Even my grandmother and myself don't know. If the man in gray was not Uncle Liying, it would be impossible for his father to tell him such a secret thing. ”
Also, since it was Wu Liying, why didn't he tell his true identity to his clansmen when he came up?
"Four years ago, I was also in Wu Jixue's business team, and your father and I were not lost as they said, but were plotted by them. ”
Thinking of what Wu Liying said, Wu Zheng always had a bad premonition in his heart. Although Wu Liying said that his father was fine, why didn't his father come back? Even if he didn't miss himself, wouldn't he miss his grandmother?
Many questions suddenly hit his heart, and Wu Zheng really couldn't wait to open the bamboo tube in his hand immediately to see what was going on.
However, after struggling for a long time, Wu Zheng still hid the bamboo tube in the kang hole again.
As for Peter Pan, Wu Liying said that he was also in the caravan where Wu Jixue went out back then, Wu Zheng had no impression, and it seemed that he had never heard of it later. I have never heard of such words as Wu Liying and his father Wu Lipeng went missing at the same time.
What's going on?
Everyone said that Wu Liying, who hadn't seen Peter Pan for four years, had gone out on a trip.
This was a very common thing for the disciples of the clan who practiced martial arts, so almost no one doubted it.
Not to mention less than four years, there are still people who have not heard from each other for more than ten years, and finally come back well?
After thinking about it in his head, he finally returned to the grave where Wu Liying was buried just now.
Wu Zheng can't help but worry that no matter how well he covers himself, if someone steps on it, he can still find that the ground is much softer than elsewhere.
For a while, Wu Zheng's heart jumped to his throat again.
If it is discovered, the fool will also know that he buried Wu Liying, so what will be the result waiting for him?
Suddenly, Wu Zheng sat up from the bed.
Although I haven't seen who Wu Liying has done with before, it is only from the patriarch Wu Youren's plot against Wu Liying, is it that they, at least the patriarch Wu Youren, and maybe Wu Jizong and Wu Jixue, have already recognized Wu Liying? !
As soon as this thought appeared in his heart, Wu Zheng could no longer calm down.
Thinking about it carefully, Wu Liying jumped out of the ring at that time, interspersing in the crowd, seemingly passing by by his side, but if he was a caring person, he would definitely notice that Wu Liying's body stopped momentarily in order to talk to him.
What to do?
The sweat on Wu Zheng's face came down.
If it weren't for the elderly grandmother, Wu Zheng really wanted to let go of the girl and simply escape from Wujiabao.
Sitting on the kang, Wu Zheng, who was extremely uneasy in his heart, pricked up his ears from time to time to listen carefully to the movements outside. Finally, he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps, and it was towards his door.
Soon, there was a knock on the door, and it was a vigorous slap.
The sound of a banging on the door, in this silent night, it is impossible not to wake up Nishima's grandmother.
"Zheng'er, who's knocking on the door?"
"Grandma lie down, I'll go out and see. ”
Wu Zheng tried his best to comfort his grandmother in a calm tone, before putting on his shoes and opening the door and walking out.
When Wu Zheng pulled down the latch, before he could stretch out his hand, the two wooden doors had been vigorously pushed open. The first thing I saw was Wu Chun, the martial arts leader with an angry face, and Wu Lishan, who was glaring at him angrily.
Especially when he saw the soft sword in Wu Chun's hand, Wu Zheng's heart suddenly cooled.
"Uncle Wu Chun, Uncle Tateyama, let me tell my grandmother that the door of the house hasn't been closed yet. ”
Wu Zheng turned around and was about to walk towards the door of the house, but Wu Chun grabbed the collar and carried it in his hand. In this way, Wu Zheng was carried all the way by Wu Chun to the discussion room on the side of the clan ancestral hall.
As soon as he walked in, he casually threw Wu Zheng on the ground.
Seeing Wu Jizong, Wu Jixue, Wu Youren, and Wu Liwei next to him, as well as Wu Chun, Wu Lishan, and Wu Zheng who had just come back, they got up hard, lowered their heads and waited for their inquiries.
"Tell me, what did Wu Liying tell you?"
Sure enough, they had already recognized Peter Pan Wu Liying.
"What, Peter Pan Wu Liying, Patriarch, where is Uncle Liying?"
At the moment of life and death, Wu Zheng had to pretend to be crazy and stupid.
"After Wu Liying jumped out of the ring this afternoon, if he pretended to make those small actions that passed by you inadvertently, would you be blind and couldn't see anything? Or do you have to wait for us to do it before you tell the truth?"
Wu Jixue, who had not spoken in front of him last night, sounded like a plain sentence, but Wu Zheng suddenly felt a gloomy aura hit his heart.
"Grandpa Grandpa, I really don't know where Uncle Liying the patriarch is talking about?"
In addition to not admitting it, Wu Zheng didn't know what other way he had to do.
"Okay, then tell us what the man in gray said to you? You won't deny that you buried him, right?"
Wu Jizong's tone sounded much more flat.
"Third Grandfather, I went to look for the big green cow, and accidentally found that the man died in the pine forest, and I couldn't bear it for a while, so I dug a pit with the soft sword on his waist and buried him. ”
"You're saying the man was dead when you met him?"
"Yes, Grandpa Sanzu. ”
Just when Wu Zheng thought that his lie had been hidden from everyone, he saw Wu Lishan suddenly come up and point to the blood stains on Wu Zheng's chest and ask:
"Now that the man is dead, how did the blood come from?"
"Me, I stuck it when I carried him into the pit. ”
"At such a young age, he was full of nonsense. Wu Chun. ”
When Wu Chun heard this, he walked up and kicked Wu Zheng to the ground, and then kicked Wu Zheng hard in the chest.
Suddenly, Wu Zheng only felt that his throat and eyes were hot, and a fishy sweet taste filled his mouth and nose, and then he opened his mouth and spurted out a large mouthful of blood.
"Zheng'er, Zheng'er, what did my Zheng'er do to make you treat him like this?!"
Hearing the cry of his grandmother behind him, Wu Zheng turned around with great effort and saw that the disheveled grandmother was staggering in from outside the door, pounced on himself at once, and tried to hold himself into his arms.
I didn't want Wu Lishan to come over and push my grandmother's shoulder hard, and my grandmother was immediately pushed to the ground, and the back of her head hit the hard ground. Wu Zheng even heard a loud bang.
"Grandma!"
When Wu Zheng ignored the sharp pain in his chest and turned over to help his grandmother up, there was only air left in her mouth, and there was no air coming in.
This sudden change caught everyone in the house a little unexpected, so they forgot to continue to interrogate Wu Zheng for the time being, and let Wu Zheng hold his grandmother and cry loudly until his grandmother closed her eyes forever, and she didn't have time to say a word to Wu Zheng until she died.
