A peasant girl through the ages

Chapter 5
Kneeling under the statue, Xinyu respectfully kowtowed to the statue, then looked up at the statue, inexplicably, she just felt that the expression of the statue was kind.

Just when Xinyu was stunned, she heard a crackling sound, and the statue moved, and Xinyu fell to the ground in fright. The most important thing was that after the statue moved, there was a hole underneath.

Lin Xinyu was stunned for a while, and finally recovered. It's not that she never thought about running out to call her father, but her father doesn't seem too courageous. You said it's broad daylight, why does she feel like a ghost?All right, why is this statue still moving?

Lin Xinyu gathered herself together and got up courageously. She couldn't hide from what was supposed to come. It was all because of her, but she couldn't solve the puzzle. Why did such a ruined temple have such a mechanism? No matter how you think about it, it feels a little strange.

After thinking about it, I was naturally not afraid. I walked over slowly, and there was really something under the statue, a pile of gold bars and a yellowed letter.

Gold bars, Xin Yu didn't move, although the family lacked money, but this thing did not belong to her, and I don't know what happened to the money, let alone the private money saved by the master, right?

"Tsk tsk, who is so rich, and has nothing to hide in this place, what do you want to do?"

First, she picked up the yellowed letter paper and opened it to read, she really knew the word.

"Being able to open this base shows that your heart is very sincere. As for being able to read this letter, it shows that you are not a greedy person. Otherwise, you would have died long ago. Those gold bars are not real at all, they are poison. If you It's not the predestined person I'm looking for, you can take the gold bar under this letter and leave."

Xinyu was taken aback by the word poison, and patted her small chest. Fortunately, she didn't touch those gold bars first, and it probably wasn't some gold bars, and nine out of ten they were fake.

He looked up at the statue again: "Who is this, what kind of tricks are you playing, you old man can't be an old urchin?"

Naturally, the statue would not answer her question.

Xinyu took a look inside, let alone a gold bar, anyway, she was not the predestined person the other party was looking for, so she happily took the gold bar. With this thing, at least it can alleviate the current situation in her family.

But the problem is, she can't reset the statue, it's not the case that it is so empty.

Continue to kneel down and kowtow to the statue: "Well, senior, I don't know how to restore you to the original state. I took the gold bars away. I'm not your destined person. I've let you down all the time. But I am very grateful that you always left me a gold bar."

As soon as Xinyu's voice fell, the base made another sound, the pile of gold bars disappeared, and then a box was raised up.

Xinyu got up and checked, the box was not locked, took it out and opened the box, and found a piece of paper and a note inside, on the paper was written "Being able to open this box means that you are my destined person"

Lin Xinyu was really speechless this time, who would have thought that after kowtowing, she would find something for herself, and she didn't know what was written in this note, could it be some peerless martial art?

I thought about it in my heart, but my hands were not idle. I picked up the notebook, opened the front page, and briefly looked at it. It was more like a man's self-report and the other party's plea than a notebook.

Before I finished reading it, another box popped up below, and when Xinyu took out the box, the statue closed automatically. This magical mechanism made Xinyu have to admire.

Opening the second box, it turned out to be a box of jewelry and gold bars, and there was a note on it "Since you are my predestined person, this is your reward"

Lin Xinyu doesn't know what to say now, you say, she hasn't agreed to do things for others, the reward is given first, should she take this thing or not?

Don't take it, the statue is closed, take it, if it doesn't work out, why do you think she will explain to others?

Although this statue can't speak, this person must be worthy of his conscience, right?
Sighing, he patted the statue's hand: "Senior, I don't know if I can fulfill your old wish, but I will try my best to help you find it. If your relatives are gone, then I will try my best to help you investigate the matter." the truth.

No matter what happens, you can't let the murderer go unpunished, let alone let the things you have been guarding fall into the wrong hands. I will do my best for this. I really can't find anyone, and I can't help it. Please forgive me.

Our family is really suffering right now, and I really need this money, so I won't be polite to you—"

As soon as the words were finished, she heard a crackling sound coming from under the statue, Xinyu was so frightened that she quickly hid aside, but don't let anything come out, she is not greedy.

Soon, the sound below stopped, and the statue remained unchanged. Lin Xinyu reckoned that most of the organs below had been destroyed.

Xinyu held the two boxes and bowed to the statue again, "Senior, this junior bid farewell, you may rest in peace!"

Putting the things in the basket and covering them with grass, Xinyu came out to find Lin Changhe, saw her father's busy appearance, and hurried over to help: "Dad, you rest, I'll—"

Lin Changhe withdrew his hands and wiped his sweat with his sleeves: "Oh, old man, it's useless, and you sweat all over when you do some work. You are young, so it's okay to do a little work, just treat it as exercise."

Xinyu smiled, and said while working: "My mother can't let my mother hear this, otherwise it's better to talk about you."

Lin Changhe sat on the side with a smile: "Oh, your mother's mouth is not forgiving, but her heart is not bad."

"That is, who is my mother? It's a pity that a good person like my mother will treat me well if she doesn't recruit me. Dad, let me tell you, don't care what others say in the future. You have to be nice to my mother. Go on!" Where can I find a good woman like my mother?"

Lin Changhe just smiled and said nothing, Du Qiuchan is a good person, he didn't run away at all when he was involved in such a big matter, but helped her carry the family, he was grateful in his heart.

But this person also has shortcomings. He really can't stand that kind of mouth. When he opens his mouth, he throws a knife, but he doesn't make comments in front of the child.

Lin Changhe didn't say a word, how could Xinyu not understand, after all, she has an adult soul inside, isn't she?
"Dad, don't be unconvinced, my mother is not very good at speaking, but if you find someone who can speak, you will probably cry and cry to ruin your reputation first, and then find a good next home by yourself .”

The father and father chatted with each other, Xinyu was very fast, and it didn't take long to clean up the weeds in the yard and the ground.

Even Lin Changhe had to sigh: "Girl, I won't go to school in the future, let's go home and farm the land, and we two will be companions, your father and I can save the old trouble."

Lin Changhe doesn't want to do the work in the field. After so many years, can Xinyu not understand?
"Hehe, I think it's okay. When you get old, you don't have to do anything. I do the work of two people alone, and you just sit on the ground drinking tea and give me pointers with a fan."

Thinking about that scene, Lin Changhe himself couldn't help laughing: "Then I won't be a rich landlord anymore? Don't be judged by others, it's good if you have this heart, and when you have money, buy some delicious food for dad Drinking is better than anything."
