Chapter 30 Isn't it just far away in the sky and close in front of you?
The family was busy tidying up until midnight.
Dai Hongliu put the sleeping Nuobao on the bed, endured the exhaustion and said: "Wen Su, Wen Mo, don't take care of it, take Xiao Wu to bed quickly."
"Okay, we'll have it done soon."
Everyone was tired after working hard until midnight, and as soon as the candles were put out, there was no sound in the room.
Under the dark night, a vague figure crawled out of the haystacks not far away, and tiptoed towards the old house.
Song Wen followed closely behind him, curious to see what he was going to do.
The man shivered when he felt the cold wind that followed him. He gritted his teeth and cursed a few times. He took out the wire from his arms and began to skillfully pick the lock.
There was a click.
He put the opened lock on the ground, walked into the yard with gentle hands, opened the lid of the water tank, and opened a paper package with a curse.
"If you and your family hadn't ruined my good deeds, I would have left with my money long ago!"
"Don't you like to meddle in other people's business? I have sent you to the underworld to take care of yourself!"
While cursing, he sprinkled all the poison in the paper bag, grabbed the water ladle and stirred it for a few times, then suppressed his anger and spit loudly on the ground.
According to his plan, as long as he deceived the old lady first, and then used some drug during the process, he would not only be able to take advantage of the yellow girl, but he could also leave with the promised money before the nine-day deadline.
Of.
But in the end, his well-calculated plan was ruined by Tokino and his son.
After being beaten out by the old lady today, he couldn't swallow this breath no matter how much he thought about it. He hid for a long time just waiting for this moment.
He seemed to be thinking of the scene where Tokino's family would all die tragically tomorrow, and he grinned sinisterly and proudly, baring his big yellow teeth.
But just when he was about to return to the original road, the road was still the same road in front of him, and a faint fog appeared around him.
He endured the shock and stepped forward, finally reaching the door. As soon as he took a breath, the scene in front of him changed, and he was back to the water tank again!
The fake Taoist priest was so frightened that he breathed rapidly, grabbed the dagger at his waist and slashed into the air: "What is that?! Get out of my way!"
Song Wen raised his eyebrows sarcastically, grabbed the stone left by Nuobao and threw one out. Chaos slowly revealed its fuzzy edges in the middle of the fog.
The fake Taoist priests seemed to be grasping at straws and ran away without thinking.
Song Wen threw one out, and the fake Taoist priest ran away.
If he throws it again, the fake Taoist priest will continue to run.
After going back and forth like this, he finally ran out of the boundary of the maze. Song Wen hung upside down on the tree and smashed the last stone. The fake Taoist priest who had been scared out of his wits screamed and dived in, and a strong breath hit him.
The irreversible fog swept in from all directions and soon swallowed his figure deep inside.
Song Wen hummed a little tune and floated to the outside of the fence, shouting happily: "Little fairy, the person has been lured over!"
"It's just that everything has been done. When will you help me find money, little fairy?"
The hidden silver cannot be found, and he will not be able to rest in peace for another three hundred years!
Nuobao yawned and said vaguely: "Why are you so anxious?"
"You'll know tomorrow."
Song Wen twisted his arms into twists and muttered in confusion: "Tomorrow?"
What can we know tomorrow?
As the rooster crows at dawn, there is movement in Nuobao's small yard early.
Dai Hongliu put Nuobao, who had been forcibly pulled out from the bed, on a small chair and said coaxingly: "Nuobao, your father invited some uncles and uncles to help build the house, and let your fifth brother play with you, okay?"
"
Nuobao's eyes were blurred and he was in a daze. He held the big bun given by his second brother in both hands and groaned. Before he opened his mouth to bite, someone shouted from outside.
"Is anyone there?"
"Hey, here you are."
Dai Hongliu wiped his hands and went to open the door. When he saw the official at the door, he suddenly stopped: "Master, what are you..."
"Don't be afraid, it's not a big deal."
The official snarled and said: "The Taoist priest who came to your village a few days ago is a charlatan. He used drugs to harm several families. I heard that he deceived your old lady this time. Did you lose anything?
Is everything okay?"
Dai Hongliu was stunned for a moment and shook his head quickly.
"No, this person was brought here by my mother-in-law. He has never even entered my house."
"That's fine."
After he finished speaking, he was about to leave, and happened to bump into Tokino coming back.
Shi Ye politely stepped aside, and when they walked away, Dai Hongliu grabbed his arm and led him through the door.
"What's going on? Why did you suddenly attract the official? Is it..."
"It's okay."
Tokino patted her hand comfortingly, paused before explaining: "It's just that the liar is dead."
"Dead?"
Brother Shi raised his head in surprise: "Why did you die suddenly?"
"He ran into the mountains and was killed by wolves."
People who got up early to go into the mountains to chop firewood saw blood on the ground and ran out in panic to report the incident to the authorities.
Officials came and pulled out the body to identify it, and when they visited and asked, they succeeded in frightening the old lady into fainting.
Tokino just came back from the old lady's place.
Dai Hongliu was dumbfounded after listening, and after a while he said: "Don't tell me, it's really rare for an old lady to be able to successfully find a wanted criminal among many charlatans."
A keen eye recognizes evil, and a stench congenial.
This is considered a skill.
Shiye used his eyes to stop the second brother Shi who wanted to talk. He picked up Nuobao who was listening in rapt attention and said, "It's okay to be frightened. It will save you a day of nothing and trouble."
"The people I invited are coming over after seeing the fun. You guys have finished eating. Xiao Wu is going out to play with Nuobao. Second brother, you follow your mother to cook, and I'll go with your elder brother..."
"No no no."
Nuobao, who suddenly came back to his senses, hugged his neck and shook his head crazily.
There is still a soul wandering outside the yard. If she leaves, she won't be able to explain to the miser!
Shiye nodded her little nose in a funny way: "Nuobao is obedient."
"Today we are going to knock down the old thatched hut and dig the foundation. You..."
"No."
The little guy turned his head decisively and gave Tokino a silent slap on the back of his head.
Dai Hongliu compromised and said, "Forget it if you don't go. If not, Xiao Wu will be watching."
"It's just Nuobao, we have agreed that we are not allowed to run around or cause trouble, remember?"
Nuobao instantly grinned and stretched out his hand towards Dai Hongliu obediently: Mom is the best!
Tokino shook his head dumbfounded and turned to urge his sons.
After a while, the villagers who had seen the excitement arrived in twos and threes. The first thing they heard when they entered was sighs.
After telling the joke about the old lady luring the wolf into the house, the experienced mason knocked on the pipe in his hand and said, "Okay, it's almost time. Let's set up the incense case to offer sacrifices to the Earth God and prepare to break ground!"
The burning incense candles burned out smoothly in the wind, and everyone started to dig up the old house with shovels and hoes.
The adults in the family all went to help. Shi Xiaowu took Nuobao and stepped back a little, and said in confusion: "Nuobao, wouldn't it be wrong for Fifth Brother to take you for a walk with flowers? What's so good about this?"
The dust was flying, not only was it choking, but the sound was loud.
Nuobao raised his little hand to his mouth and raised his chin towards the foundation being dug.
Song Wen, who was floating not far away, woke up from his daze, jumped up as if his butt was on fire and shouted: "Silver?"
"Where is the silver?"
Nuobao smiled mysteriously and said to himself: Where is it?
