Chapter 33: The Deal
Excavation of a mountain, this is not a small matter, where it is a big action, if it is said to be a private excavation by the villagers. Surely there will be such and such a bureau involved, but because this time is the Liu family presided over, Huang Lao manipulated behind the scenes, so the progress is very fast, at this time, it seems that a lot of people have reacted to, why will the Liu family came to the village child, this nine miles of mountains on the temple of the Niangniang bizarrely by human arson it?
What is the fire to burn down, is it something that needs to be hidden? In the words of the fat man, these too obvious traces before sleep can be thought of, the problem is that too easy to get things so that self-righteous people overlooked, including me, all think that the secret of the Lotus Basin hidden very deep very deep, otherwise why is it worth Li Jianfeng lurking here for so many years?
Because of the previous tips, so that the focus of this excavation, in the nine miles of the mountain near the Niangniang Temple, in addition to the villagers organized to dig the mountain armed, the Liu family is also with the then Huang Lao dig lock head of the village children's back of the mountain the same engaged in the caravan involved in it. Dug out of the soil, just Luoyang City has a garbage burial project, this lotus basin village, all of a sudden became more lively.
The mountain is not a big mountain, nature also does not have the mountain is spiritual, everyone has no taboo are digging. Because on the surface or the Liu family is presiding over the matter of the big picture, so we three or four people are still considered a hobo, this day, the fat man they went fishing again, I'm over here about nothing, lying on the bed to play with a cell phone, suddenly the window over there, I didn't care, because the Westlake Hotel next to Nine Mile Hill is not far away, the construction is very noisy.
But after a while, my window is a loud bang, I looked up and saw a face on the window, looking at me, and this face I am very familiar with, it is the one in the lock of the village we came after the disappearance of Song Xiaoguang! It seemed that Fatty had not guessed wrong, after Jianfeng Li had directed everyone's attention to the correct Nine Mile Mountain, Song Xiaoguang would have to show up! I stood up with a roll and called out to the window, "Grandpa Song!"
As soon as I stood up, he started to run, and it was so hard for me to see this Song Xiaoguang's figure, where would I let him run away? I chased out, and even saw him standing in the doorway looking at me, now I understand even if I am a fool, is Song Xiaoguang want to see me, this is to take me out. As soon as I figured out this I wasn't in a hurry, just jogging to keep up, until I ran out of the Lotus Basin, most of the villagers are now on Nine Mile Mountain, the village is almost empty, but we still ran to the village side of the field.
"Grandpa Song, there will be no one here, don't run." I said.
He stood still and looked at me, the expression on his face was very changeable, he asked me, "You came out with me like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
My heart sank, I subconsciously, did not take Song Xiaoguang as a villain, and he is from the lock head village, I rightly took him as my own elders to see, really did not think that he would be unfavorable to me this, he said I remembered, this side of a person are not, in case this old man on me, I can not beat him how to do?
"You want to kill me, where to do not move, as to come here?" I said with a smile on my face, but I was still on guard.
"Follow me." He looked at it, continued to walk forward, walked not far, he pulled a plank from the ground, and then jumped down, I took a look, inside seems to be a secret room like existence, hesitated, also jumped in, in fact, this old man's performance today, undoubtedly admitted to me, he is not Song Yaguang, but Song Xiaoguang.
This is not the same as the secret room on TV below, is a similar sweet potato cellar like existence, there is a battery light, and a small bed, other than that nothing else, look at me a little heartbroken, Song Xiaoguang disappeared after we came, after that is to hide in here?
There is no stool in this cellar, the two of us sat on the bed, I handed him a cigarette, he did not refuse, after the two are silent smoking, he does not seem to want to talk like, after a while, I really can not help but ask: "Grandpa Song, what in the end you come here?"
A person who could have had a beautiful daughter-in-law, why did he choose to leave his home to come here? And to live like this?
"There are some things that you will naturally know when the time comes, but right now, it's not the time." Song Xiaoguang said.
"Now, it can't be stopped, those people are going to dig up the Nine Mile Mountain, the secrets inside won't be able to be hidden, so we have to rush before they do, and go to that place for a bit, I'm looking for you today, because I want to talk to you, tomorrow night, you let the two people who are with you come here." Song Xiaoguang said.
"And then?" I asked.
"I know there's a way to get in after they dig." Song Xiaoguang said.
Now I was depressed, Song Xiaoguang looked for me and asked me to ask Fatty and Lin Baqian out, but what about me? He just said for them to tomorrow night. "What about me?" I asked.
"You don't come, if in three days time, we haven't come out, you go back to Locked Head Village Er, take this thing, burn it in front of the Li family three ghosts' graves, remember, don't come out again, don't go anywhere until He Zhenzhen goes back to Locked Head Village Er. If you have any accidents in Locked Village, naturally someone will help you, but after you leave Locked Village, I'm afraid that no one will be able to protect you." Song Xiaoguang said.
Song Xiaoguang handed me, is three incense, very short, black, do not know what material, but if you smell, there is a subtle fragrance.
"Grandpa Song?" I said with a bit of excitement.
He waved his hand at me and said, "Don't ask me why, this is a deal Pearl and I made with your grandfather. Slowly you will know, remember, besides your family, no one will truly help you without benefit, there are all bargaining chips."
"And what was the bargaining chip in your deal with my grandfather? I feel, with Grandma Pearl's ability, as if my grandfather has nothing to trade with you guys, right?" I wondered.
"There is." He laughed, then he patted my shoulder and said, "Don't ask now, I haven't figured out how to tell you yet, but after you enter this place, your two friends will know some of the truth, and if they make it out, they'll tell you for me." Song Xiaoguang said.
After saying that, he gave an expulsion order for me to go back, I pulled his arm and asked the last question saying, "Grandpa Song, absolutely the last question, where did she go, Grandma White Pearl White? Li Jianfeng those people, why did they set up an idol for Grandma Bai on Nine Mile Mountain?"
"That idol was erected by me." Song Xiaoguang said, it seemed that as soon as Bai Zhenzhu was mentioned, there was a wave of sadness in Song Xiaoguang's eyes.
"You still haven't answered me, where did she go, Grandma Bai." I said eagerly.
"You should see her soon." Song Xiaoguang said. After this time, he was dead set on not wanting to speak again, I had no choice but to leave, when I went back, Fatty looked at me with a smile and said, "San Liang, you've seen Song Xiaoguang, haven't you?"
"How do you know? Tracking me?" I wondered, tracking me know for sure is impossible, does it mean that the fat man can even count this thing?
"Do you think Lao Lin and I intentionally left you here these days? Fat master I feel, that Song Xiaoguang to really want to appear, looking for the first person, is definitely you." Fatty said.
"Why me?" I said.
"I am him, I also see you, people and stupid, there is no any threat." Fatty laughed out loud.
I did not have the mood to joke with him, and later told him about Song Xiaoguang to see me, after I finished I asked the fat man said, "How, feel anything different?"
Fatty shook his head and said, "No, in fact, so far, everything with my guess is also similar, when they those out of the lock village child, from in to out of this process, absolutely not nothing to get, more or less to do something to trade."
