Chapter 697 Empty Tomb

Feng Lin was a little surprised, this person was still an ancient warrior.

The realm is only the middle stage of An Jin.

Could it be Xu Ruoying's grandfather?

Xu Ruoying looked at the mottled wooden door. Some places on it had rotted holes.

She put her eyes over it and observed the courtyard inside through the hole.

I found that all the sight lines were blocked by weeds.

"Let's go in and have a look."

Feng Lin patted Xu Ruoying's shoulder from behind.

"good!"

Xu Ruoying nodded, and the two of them did not leave.

Their realm, facing the two-meter-high courtyard wall, is like flat ground.

With a slight leap, the two jumped into the yard.

The yard is not big, there is only a small corridor paved with bricks, one and a half meters wide.

As for both sides of the aisle, they are already covered with weeds.

It is fully as tall as half a person.

In the corner on the left, Feng Lin saw the tomb that Xu Chuan mentioned.

There is no tombstone, just a simple mound covered with weeds.

Directly ahead, there is an earthen house with a wooden door that has rotted and fallen.

There was a person's scent in the dark room.

Feng Lin walked inside.

Xu Ruoying nervously grabbed the corner of Feng Lin's clothes.

Walking into the room, the floors here are all paved with bricks.

On the wall on the left are rusty shovels and hoes.

There is also a worn sofa and wooden table.

On the right side of the room is a small bedroom, and the breath is in it.

Feng Lin walked over, opened the curtain, and saw a woman lying on the wooden bed.

"Wake up."

Feng Lin walked over and called softly.

brush!

The figure suddenly trembled and turned around quickly.

Those deep black eyes were a little panicked, and she immediately jumped up and tried to escape from the window on the side.

boom!

As soon as she jumped up, she was pressed to the ground by an invisible force.

"ah!"

She let out a cry of pain.

Xu Ruoying also walked in and stared at the woman lying on the ground, "It scared me. I thought it was my grandfather's ghost."

"There's something wrong with this woman."

Feng Lin walked over, grabbed the woman Destiny's neck, and carried her out.

The woman couldn't even open her eyes under the sunlight outside.

She looked about fifteen years old. She was dressed in rags and had long hair.

He has a sickly pale face.

"Don't hit me, I will never steal again." The woman covered her eyes with her hands and begged.

"I won't hit you, please take your hands away."

Feng Lin said calmly.

"No, I'm afraid of scaring you." The woman whispered.

"I'm not afraid."

Feng Lin squatted on the ground and pried the woman's hand away.

Xu Ruoying also followed up strangely and looked at this woman's face.

If she didn't have these diseases, she would still be a beautiful little girl in bud.

However, her eyes are very strange.

Normal people's eyes are composed of the whites, then the eyeballs, and finally the small dots inside the eyeballs, which are the pupils.

But this woman has no pupils.

Except for the whites around her eyes, she has only one dark eye.

You can't see the pupils inside at all.

If you don't look carefully, it's nothing.

But upon closer inspection, it becomes more and more strange and even a little scary.

"Feng Lin, what's going on?" Xu Ruoying asked in shock.

"I don't know, maybe they are foreigners."

Feng Lin shook his head slightly and asked flatly, "Why do you live here? This is not your home."

"This place has been abandoned for a long time. No one lives here anyway. I sleep here during the day."

"Go out to steal something at night?"

Feng Lin asked lightly, this woman's sick skin is caused by not being exposed to the sun for a long time.

Apparently he sleeps during the day and goes out at night.

"I was wrong, I never dare to do it again." The woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Feng Lin.

"Get up, what's your name?"

Xu Ruoying pulled the woman up.

"My name is Mianmian."

"Mianmian?" Xu Ruoying was a little confused.

"I was adopted by my grandparents. They said I liked to eat noodles when I was a child, so they called me Mian Mian."

He replied face to face.

"Are your grandparents gone?" Feng Lin asked.

"kindness."

Mianmian lowered her head and responded. At this moment, her stomach suddenly growled.

She immediately covered her belly.

"Hey, I'll give you a good thing."

Feng Lin took out a pack of military compressed biscuits from the space ring and handed it to Mianmian, "Eat it."

"Thank you... thank you."

Mian Mian excitedly took the biscuits, tore open the packaging bag and started eating.

"After you finish eating, remember to help me with the work."

Feng Lin took out a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Mianmian.

"Okay! I'm very strong."

Mian Mian smiled while eating.

"I need someone strong."

Feng Lin walked into the room and took out the shovel.

Mian Mian finished the biscuits in the blink of an eye, drank half a bottle of mineral water, and finally exhaled.

"Are you full?"

Feng Lin came over and asked.

"Hehe... not yet." He rubbed his head in embarrassment.

"Work first, and I'll let you eat when you're done." Feng Lin threw the shovel to her.

Mianmian took the shovel and asked strangely: "Brother, what do you want me to do?"

"Leave my grandfather's grave flat." Xu Ruoying said with a smile.

"It turns out this is my sister's home." Mianmian giggled a few times.

"Don't be flat, I'll let you dig the grave." Feng Lin came over and said.

Xu Ruoying was immediately confused. She immediately pointed at Feng Lin and shouted: "How can I be sorry for you? I served you for two hours yesterday, and you still want to dig up my ancestral graves?"

"Calm down."

Feng Lin rolled his eyes, put his arm around Xu Ruoying's shoulders, looked in front of him and said, "Hurry up."

"good!"

After all, Mianmian is a master of An Jin. He looks young, but with Qi Jin, he is far beyond ordinary people.

She works tirelessly here.

In just a few minutes, the raised mound of soil on the grave was dug up.

Then I dug deeper, about two meters deep, and reached the coffin board.

"Okay, clean up the soil around the coffin." Feng Lin said calmly.

Mianmian nodded and started working here again.

With prolonged exposure to the sun, her eyes gradually opened.

After a while, the entire coffin board was exposed to the air.

Feng Lin walked over, lifted up the coffin board with one hand.

Xu Ruoying was so frightened that she immediately closed her eyes and did not dare to look.

It has been so many years, and my grandfather must have been a skeleton long ago.

Feng Lin looked inside and smiled softly: "As expected, Xu Guoshou is not dead at all."

"What?"

Xu Ruoying, who was closing her eyes, immediately opened them. She walked over and looked at the coffin.

It was empty, there was nothing inside.

"How is it possible? Although I was still young at the time, I clearly remember that my grandfather's heart stopped beating and his body gradually became cold."

Xu Ruoying couldn't believe it. She remembered that she couldn't sleep well for many days in a row.

Xu Chuan also cried very sadly.

"I can make people's hearts stop temporarily and their bodies become cold."

Feng Lin finally understood why when Xu Chuan told the real human about the fake grave, the real human didn't look for him again.

Because the fake grave was also empty, the real humans, like themselves, guessed that Xu Guoshou just faked his death.
