Xiao Di looked around with the flickering candlelight, but didn't find anywhere. She had seen a lot of dead people, and she had no fear of the dead. But when she heard Gu Dayong said that Gu Xiaopan's ashes should be buried at home, the living and the dead
Living under the same roof, she still felt terrified. Especially being buried under this palm-sized warehouse, Xiao Di immediately couldn't sit still. It seemed that what was sitting under her butt was not a bag of grain, but
Gu Xiaopan’s urn.
"Did you bury her ashes in that corner?" Tan Xuan asked, pointing to the place where Gu Dayong once hid.
Gu Dayong was stunned for a moment and asked: "How did you see that? There are no traces left by me. The bricks on the ground are still the original bricks, and even the excavated soil has been scattered by me.
Went to the garden."
Tan Xuan smiled slightly, "It's really no different from other places there. When the ashes are mixed into the soil, there are no ghosts hiding there. It should be mixed with white ash. If you don't tell me that you buried Gu Xiaopan's ashes here,
A warehouse, I really didn’t find it.”
"Then how could you tell at a glance where I buried Xiao Pan?"
"Because of it." Tan Xuan pointed to the candle standing next to the tool box, "This candle is not meant to be lit by living people. Unfortunately, the ghost you want to illuminate is not here, so there is no other aura. But as long as you know
, everything is a clue."
"So that's it. I thought I did it perfectly, but I didn't expect there were still flaws."
"Did you learn all of this from that Wang Laosan?"
"Yeah." Gu Dayong nodded, "I've been working with him for twenty years. Although he doesn't teach us those things, we read them every day and we know something about them."
"He knows those things, where did he learn them from?" Tan Xuan doesn't know what Wang Laosan's other abilities are, but the engagement contract he got has a certain set of rules. The engagement contract signed by Gu Xiaopan and Jiang Mingcheng should be
It was copied from him.
Gu Dayong shook his head, "What he did was passed down from his ancestors. They have been doing that for generations. He has been doing that since I can remember."
"Oh, then your village director Wang Cheng should be his successor, right?"
"Yeah. Wang Cheng has been following Wang Laosan's horseback and forth, and I guess he has learned everything he needs to learn. Moreover, he is the village director. No one in the village dares to offend him. It will be more convenient for Wang Laosan to teach him.
He also saw this clearly, and this is what the Wang family hopes to make money from."
"Oh, that's it." Tan Xuan chuckled, but he didn't expect that a village cadre would actually take the lead in engaging in feudal superstition. If the superior leaders knew about this, not only would his skin be ripped off, but he would also be skinned.
"I see that people in your village, including your village director Wang Cheng, call the old man Third Uncle. Why do you call him Wang Laosan? He has a problem with you?" Tan Xuan deliberately asked Gu Dayong again.
Gu Dayong snorted and said angrily: "You still want me to call him Third Uncle? If he hadn't given me the wrong idea, how could Xiao Pan die? And my death has a lot to do with him. We are the father and son.
He was harmed."
"Really, after Niu Mo'er and another person hid the ashes of Er Lengzi's newlyweds under a pile of corn stalks just now, I heard them say that you were the one who ruined Wang Laosan's affairs, so he wanted to harm you.
It seems this is true. What did you do to make him so angry that he even wanted to harm your name?" Tan Xuan found every opportunity to expose some of the information he had heard.
"What else can I do to harm him? I just stole Xiao Pan's ashes, leaving him unable to explain to the old Zhao family, no money made, and all he had to complain about." Gu Dayong said angrily.
"Then how did he harm you? I heard from your wife that you committed suicide by drinking pesticide." Tan Xuan continued to ask deliberately. In fact, from Gu Dayong's face, Tan Xuan could tell that Gu Dayong was indeed a poisonous person.
Damn it, especially Gu Dayong's lips which were blue and black anyway. No one believed that he was not poisoned to death.
"I drank the pesticide because I felt bad about Xiao Pan's death, but it was also stimulated by Wang Laosan and others. He would use Xiao Pan's incident to stimulate me, saying that I was the culprit of Xiao Pan's death. I
I only drank pesticides when I couldn't stand it anymore, otherwise why can't I think about Xiaopan's death for almost a year? If I wanted to die, I would have died long ago."
"oh!"
Tan Xuan nodded, and looked at each other with Xiao Di. Their expressions changed slightly. When they looked at Gu Dayong again, their eyes were slightly different.
"ha……"
Gu Dayong, who was angry, suddenly yawned, and then a look of sleepiness immediately appeared on his face.
"What's the matter? You're still sleepy. Are ghosts afraid of staying up late?" Xiao Di asked angrily from the side. Initially, she thought Gu Dayong was both pitiful and hateful. After hearing the explanation, she only felt
I hate this rating.
Tan Xuan chuckled, stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Di's leg, "The ghost doesn't know how to sleep. The reason why he is like this is because the energy I gave him just now is almost exhausted. When he really falls asleep,
, he has returned to the confused look he had when we first saw him. But now that he knows that his daughter will not come back, the obsession in his heart is about to disappear, and it may not be long before it completely dissipates.
"
Tan Xuan stood up, stretched out, and stretched his muscles, "Okay, anyway, we have asked all the questions that should be asked and should not be asked. The purpose of our coming here has been achieved."
With that said, Tan Xuan glanced at Gu Dayong again and reminded: "Gu Dayong, why don't you go see your wife while you are awake now? This is really the last time we see her."
Gu Dayong shook his head, "Don't watch it anymore. This kind of wedding is held in the village. At this time, she should be sleeping like a dead pig. There is nothing interesting to see."
"Oh!" Tan Xuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "What do you mean by this? Does it mean that when a wedding is held for the dead, the living must fall asleep?"
Gu Dayong chuckled, "You must have missed the lunch today, right?"
"After eating, your wife brought back some dishes before noon and said they were sent by Wang Chengrang." Tan Xuan replied truthfully.
Gu Dayong yawned and shook his head and said: "The ones before noon are the tops, not the main banquets. The main banquets only start at noon. Didn't you eat?"
Tan Xuan shook his head, "We didn't eat it. The women's director of your village sent a lot of it, but we didn't eat it."
"It's okay if you haven't eaten. After eating, you will be like the people in the village and can't sleep."
Tan Xuan frowned, "You mean those dishes were drugged?"
Gu Dayong nodded, "Yes, every time Wang Laosan does this kind of thing in the village, he will use this method to make the people in the village unable to go out at night. No one will be able to wake up until it is bright tomorrow.
come over."
"So that's it. No wonder the village was so strangely quiet tonight. I thought everyone in the village had received orders from the royal city."
"There are always people who don't listen to orders. Wouldn't it be more convenient if you don't know what's going on and think you're just sleeping in the water? Ha..."
As he spoke, Gu Dayong yawned longer, and it seemed that he could not open his eyes.
"Okay, you can take another look at your home. Just take one more look. Don't leave any regrets. We will go back and rest."
Tan Xuan turned on the low-battery mobile phone again, blew out the candle, buried the candle back at the bottom of the box, and then pulled Xiao Di out.
"Wait a minute!" Gu Dayong suddenly shouted from behind.
"What, is something wrong?" Tan Xuan stopped, looked back at Gu Dayong, whose eyelids were almost touching, and asked, and then cut off Gu Dayong's possible request for help inhumanely, "If you need us for anything else,
If you want to help, please don't talk too much. If you promise to let your daughter run away, I will lose a lot of money this time. Don't expect me to help you anymore. Go to bed when you need to sleep, and leave when you need to leave."
Gu Dayong shook his head vigorously, both to refresh himself and to deny Tan Xuan's guess, "I have nothing to ask for your help. I just want to ask why Xiaopan didn't come home after she died. What was she going to do?"
went?"
Tan Xuan snorted coldly, "She went out to find her husband. No one loves her while she is alive. She wants to find someone who can accompany her throughout her life after she dies."
Only then did he think of asking this question. Tan Xuan felt nothing but disdain in his heart. This man who was a father really didn't deserve to be a father.
"Then has she been found?" Gu Dayong asked with a hopeful look on his face. He saw Tan Xuan's disgusted expression, but he couldn't help but ask.
"She found it." Xiao Di rushed to answer, "The man chose to jump into the river to stay with her forever. The two of them made a marriage contract, but then they made a mistake and everything was lost."
"It's good if you find it, it's good if you find it..."
A gratified smile appeared on Gu Dayong's face. He seemed not to have heard Xiao Di's words behind him. He kept mumbling, but his voice became lower and lower, and his figure gradually faded, and finally disappeared completely in the warehouse.
"Is he asleep again?" Xiao Di looked around, but could not see Gu Dayong again.
Tan Xuan shook his head, "No, he has completely disappeared."
"Is he out of his mind?" Xiao Di was surprised, "Then I lied to him..."
Tan Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Your words completely freed him. Without his obsession, he will be gone."
Tan Xuan knew that Gu Dayong would disappear sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to disappear so quickly, as if he couldn't wait.
"Okay, let's go, it's getting late, let's go back and rest."
Tan Xuan held up the cell phone in one hand and hugged Xiao Di's waist with the other. He carefully came to the door of the warehouse, then put away the cell phone and opened the door of the warehouse.
"Wait!"
As soon as Tan Xuan opened the door of the warehouse, he pulled Xiao Di back to the warehouse, and then quickly closed the door.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Di asked quietly in the darkness.
"There is a ghost in the yard."
"There are still ghosts?" Xiao Di was shocked, and then asked: "Where are they?"
"It is leaning against the window of the main house and looking into the house."
