Niu Jianguo seemed a little surprised by my kind deed, and murmured: "Brother Fan, I can't tell you are quite kind."
“It’s a little effort, if you can help, please help.”
It’s not easy for the old woman either. She’s very old, blind, and now she has no son. I’m afraid her life will be sad in the future...
Just as I was walking forward, I heard an old lady's voice behind me.
"My son is dead. Please stop harassing him and just give him a peaceful life..." the old woman said helplessly.
I raised my eyebrows, my eyes fell on Niu Jianguo, and asked: "Pay attention to see if anyone else is here. Send two more people to protect the old grandma."
Niu Jianguo nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call someone now."
"By the way, ask the villagers here to see where the fourth child's coffin is buried."
"Brother Fan, you don't want to..." Niu Jianguo said with his eyes widened.
"I'll go take a look at it tonight. I feel that this old man's death is too strange. There may be some mystery in it," I said.
Niu Jianguo was thoughtful, and I quickly left the fourth house.
That night, Niu Jianguo came to me again and said that he had figured out the location of Lao Si's grave. I immediately took Lao Zheng with me and let Niu Jianguo lead the way, and went straight to Lao Si's grave.
"The fourth child's family was so poor that they couldn't even open the pot. Even the coffin was purchased by a few relatives who pooled their money. They didn't bury it in a good place, so they just dug a hole by the river and buried it." Niu Jianguo said during the day.
I spent some money to get the location of the tomb from the relatives of the fourth family. The place is a bit remote and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it.
In the darkness of the night, I, Lao Zheng, Niu Jianguo and another younger brother came to the river in the dark. In a thicket of weeds, I saw a small grave where a simple tombstone was erected.
There is a man's name engraved on it, but other than that, there are no other decorations.
"Here we go, let's get to work!"
Niu Jianguo greeted his younger brother and sat down next to him, smoking a cigarette, looking very cool.
I rolled my eyes, thinking that this guy was really a boss, so I simply picked up the shovel and worked with his younger brother. I was so moved that the younger brother didn't even dare to express his anger...
The grave mound was not big, and it didn’t take long for the two shovels to reach the coffin.
Niu Jianguo threw down his cigarette, made a torch on the spot, lit it, looked at the coffin, shook his head and said, "Brother Fan, there is something wrong with this coffin."
I also noticed the same thing about the coffin. There were no wooden nails on the coffin lid.
"Open the dish and take a look." Niu Jianguo said.
Caitou rubbed his hands, used a shovel to open the gap in the coffin lid, and then exerted force, the coffin lid was slowly pried up...
I looked closely, and by the light of the fire, I found that there was a shroud inside the coffin, and there was nothing else.
"What the hell, where is the body?" Niu Jianguo said in surprise.
I couldn't help but frown. If I hadn't come to open the coffin, I wouldn't have known that it was actually an empty coffin!
"Did someone steal the body?" Niu Jianguo asked.
I observed it for a while, then shook my head and said in denial: "No, I don't think the body was stolen, but the fourth child is not dead at all."
"How do you know?"
"Look at the corners of the coffin, there are several small holes, which can obviously be used for breathing, and there are no wooden nails on the coffin lid. In my opinion, the fourth child must have escaped from his shell and deliberately pretended
Die suddenly to avoid being found."
"Avoid? Niangpixi, who is he trying to hide from? Could it be that he knows you are coming to find him?" Niu Jianguo asked.
I thought for a moment and said: "It's probably not that you are avoiding me, there is probably someone else..."
As soon as I finished speaking, Lao Zheng, who was silent at the side, suddenly looked back and said, "Someone is coming. Find a place to hide quickly."
Lao Zheng's ear is obviously much better than ours. As soon as he said this, we hurriedly hid behind a big rock nearby.
In less than half a minute, as soon as our front legs were hidden, a group of figures rushed over from the back legs.
I held my breath and looked up, and found that the people who came were all unfamiliar faces, four or five of them. Although the number was not large, everyone had a sharp aura about them, and they all seemed to be masters...
These people immediately noticed something strange in Laosi's coffin, and their expressions suddenly changed.
One of them said in a cold voice: "Brother, the body is gone, what should we do now?"
The leader was a tall and thin man. He looked around the coffin and said with a cold face: "The fourth child is probably not dead. Go back and arrest the old woman. I want to see if he can get out."
Several people came and left quickly. As soon as they saw that the coffin was empty, they didn't stay much and immediately went to the fourth child's home.
I said something bad to myself. Looking at this scene, the old woman might have to be captured by them and used as a hostage.
It's just that this fourth child is so popular all of a sudden. Not only am I looking for him, but people outside are also looking for him. Could it be that the secret of the relics on his body has been exposed?
I frowned, as if this was the only reason that made sense.
"Brother Fan, there are people who care more about what we are doing now than us," Niu Jianguo said.
I raised my eyes and said, "Those people are from outside. Sha Village is your territory now. What do you think we should do?"
When Niu Jianguo heard this, his eyes gleamed, and he geared up and said excitedly: "Niang Pixi, let's do his grandma's job. If you dare to act arrogantly in my territory, Fatty, you must ask my fist first!"
Niu Jianguo was suddenly angered by me, quickly returned to the village, and then summoned his younger brothers.
After a while, Niu Jianguo had led more than a dozen people to join me. At the same time, his younger brother also came to report that someone had broken into the fourth child's house and was about to capture the old woman as a hostage.
When Niu Jianguo heard this, the fat on his face trembled, and he said angrily: "Mother, Pixi, you really dare to mess around in my territory, fat master. Come with me, I can't let go of any of those bastards."
!”
Niu Jianguo angrily led the people over. Lao Zheng and I smiled at each other and followed behind, ready to watch the excitement. In all conscience, I couldn't bear to do anything to an old man. No matter what, I went to catch one.
For an old man in his 60s or 70s to be a hostage, this method is too damn despicable...
A few minutes later, Niu Jianguo led people to the door of Lao Si's house. He happened to bump into the four or five people he had seen before, holding the old woman and preparing to pull him out.
"Niang Pixi, come to Fatty and I will surround them. If these bastards dare to come and arrest anyone, don't let any of them go!"
Niu Jianguo waved his hand, and a dozen boys behind him quickly displayed their weapons and surrounded several strangers.
Niu Jianguo raised his head and said with a look of disdain on the world: "People inside, listen to me, you are surrounded, put the old man down quickly, otherwise I will tie you up one by one and throw you into the river to feed the fish!"
"
Niu Jianguo was quite talkative, but unfortunately the people inside just glanced at him and were not too surprised.
Soon, a sound came from inside.
"Niu Jianguo, right? I'll give you three minutes to get the people out of here, and don't mess with the grandpas!"
"Niang Pixi, who are you?" Niu Jianguo scolded!
"From Second Uncle Qin's family!"
As these words fell, Niu Jianguo, who had been fearless just now, suddenly changed his expression, and then suddenly became scared...
