Inherit the family's old shop

Chapter 62
The old man said with a smile, and there was no trace of shadow on his face anymore. I feel that the old man is not so disgusted with the people who beat the ghost whip at Mangshan. What's more, what on earth is he going to do with my jade bracelet!
At this time grandma called us to go out for dinner, grandpa waved to me, let me go first, he sat down for a while, I watched him sitting on the kang and smoking a cigarette, there was no joy or sorrow on his face Can't see any expression.

I responded, and hurried to the kitchen. Chen Hanbiao was also seated. Speaking of which, this idiot still had his feet pierced in my house, and he was addicted to eating, drinking, and sleeping, but there was no shortage of food for him at home. The fool and his family get along well, so he just stays here.

Grandma left a portion for the old man in the pot, and we ate first, then Chen Hanbiao is used to cooking alone, and his craftsmanship is probably not very good, so he kept praising grandma while eating Fan, to be honest, I've known him for the past few days, and today's mouth is sweeter than honey. If it were someone else, I really thought he was flattering.

But I know that this idiot is sincere, he may not say anything if he doesn't taste good, but if he really praises it, it's from his heart, not pretending.

While we were having dinner, the old man came out, glanced towards the kitchen, but didn't say a word, he saw that it meant he was going out.

I hurriedly asked, "Grandpa, you haven't eaten yet, why are you going?"

"Why not, go out for a stroll, hey, it made me upset so early in the morning, I can't eat now!" The old man replied to me, and when he was about to go out, he came back in a hurry.

The old man said at the door of the kitchen, "Jiujiner, let Biaozi take you for a stroll after eating in a while, don't hold back at home, people have troubles, and when you are free, just go It's easy to get cranky, go out for a walk, relax and relax!"

The old man said with a smile, I understand what this means, the old man has a clear understanding of my thoughts, he knows that I have been a sensitive person since I was a child, and I like to think about random things when I am free, and now there are a bunch of miscellaneous things, He was afraid that I would have a wild dream and come up with something wrong.

I agreed, and Chen Hanbiao also agreed, "Don't worry, old man, I've been around this village since I was a child, and I'm sure I'll have fun with you!"

The old man nodded and went out. Grandma didn't ask any more questions, and I didn't ask any more questions. Everyone knows the old man's temper. He will say what he wants to say without you asking. If you don't want to say it, you just say it. The lip service is also for nothing.

After dinner, Chen Hanbiao was going to take me out. Originally, I planned to go out of the village again, because the jade bracelet was lost, and Xiaohua Daner and I couldn't get in touch. What happened to the jade bracelet? Mangshan Ghost Whipman took it away, no matter what his purpose is, I have to remind Xiao Huadaner first.

But as soon as I mentioned the village, Chen Hanbiao quickly shook his head, "I can't be the master of this matter, let's go for a walk in the village, but I don't know the outside of the village, Jiujiner, you can't get out I'd better ask your grandpa, I really want to take you out to make a fuss, the guy in your grandpa's hand hasn't poked me into a sieve yet!"

I curled my lips when I heard it, "What are you talking about, is the old man that kind of person? Let's go out for a walk and come back before dark!"

But no matter what I say, this idiot is determined not to leave the village after eating the weight, and I have no choice but to change my mind, since I will not leave the village, then let's go to the mulberry forest.

To tell you the truth, I still had such a ten-thousandth of an idea in my heart, that the jade bracelet was lost in the forest, even if the old man was dazzled and couldn't find it, this matter can be compared to the hands of Mangshan who hit the ghost whip I feel much more comfortable here, although I know that the chances are almost zero, but after all I have a thought in my heart, if I don't go around, I don't feel at ease.

Chen Hanbiao didn't say anything about this sentence. He seemed to be more interested than I was. The idiot on the road said to me, "The mulberry forest is not big, so I wondered why I left last night. I won't be able to get out for most of the night, let alone, I really want to go wandering around again!"

I know this fool is a foolish and bold guy, and he is a guy who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back, but this meaning is just what I want. I couldn't get out in the mulberry forest last time. I thought it was a ghost hitting the wall. Listen This idiot's piss did not break in the past, only now did he realize that it was the fault of those children from the aristocratic family.

I was a bit of a road idiot, and I only walked this road once. This road was basically led by Chen Hanbiao. The mulberry forest was not close to home. We walked for more than half an hour to get there. Standing in front of the mulberry forest, looking at the crooked neck tree not far away, I suddenly thought of the woman in the red coat hanging from the crooked neck tree.

If it weren't for this woman, I wouldn't be able to enter this forest, and I wouldn't be able to get the trick, let alone lose the pair of jade bracelets. Thinking of this, I sighed. Chen Hanbiao waved at me and went in first. Then he also entered the woods.

After entering the forest, Chen Hanbiao seemed to be looking for something. I didn't ask much, and walked around the crooked neck tree twice. I left some traces, although it was winter, and the mulberry leaves on the ground could not see footprints or anything, but that night I ran for a long distance, in fact, I just wandered around in this forest for a long time , this trace is absolutely indispensable.

After walking a few steps, I really saw a messy leaf, a layer of messy footprints, it’s okay, walking along this leaf, there are traces of my fall every now and then along the way, and I slipped away. After all, it turned out to be a big circle. I thought it was a long run that night, but in the final analysis, I spent half the night wandering around this mulberry forest.

I can see the end of the place clearly, because it is extraordinarily messy here, the leaves of a layer of mulberry trees have been trampled in a mess, that was where the group of paper piercers surrounded me, I lowered my head and lifted those Looking for the leaves of the tree, in fact, it doesn’t take much effort, the jade bracelet is thrown into the pile of leaves, it is eye-catching at first, if there is any, I can see it at a glance, but I still have the patience to go through it several times , I searched twice along the road I walked, but as expected, I really didn't find it.

At this time, Chen Hanbiao also came over touching the back of his head, "Jiujiner, this is not right, I obviously walked in a straight line that night, and I also marked some of the trees, but today I came here to have a look, Damn, I actually walked in a big circle, take a look!"

I looked for a week along the path pointed by Chen Hanbiao. Chen Hanbiao walked in a big circle like me, but his circle was much larger than mine, and the radius of light was more than ten meters larger. It can be imagined No matter how we turned around that night, it was impossible for us to meet and go together. Speaking of which, the methods of those aristocratic children were really not simple.

As expected, he didn't find the pair of jade bracelets. Chen Hanbiao found out what happened that night. The matter was supposed to be over. We were planning to go back, but when I didn't expect it, I saw a man not far away. There seems to be something on a tree.

Just a few steps away, I asked Chen Hanbiao to go over and take a look, but when I went over to look, there was a big cut with clearly visible veins on the tree, as if someone had cut it in a circle with something. The bark of the tree is a spiral circle, looking at it at a glance, it is more than one meter long.

Chen Hanbiao was also taken aback when he looked at it, "Good guy, who made this, but it doesn't look like someone scraped it out with a knife at leisure, Jiu Jiner, look at this hole, it looks like it was made with a knife. Something was strangled abruptly!"

I touched the cut, and there were deep and shallow traces with my little finger, but it was very rough when I touched it, and the strength to strangle it was definitely not small.

Seeing this, I suddenly thought of the mangshan ghost whip that the old man said. Looking at the traces, could it be the cut made by the mangshan ghost whip? The bark is like this, but it was hit on a person , that's not directly pulling off a layer of skin.

Chen Hanbiao was watching here, and I didn't explain much, because what the old man said was a bit mysterious. No matter how good this fool is, he is still an outsider. When I talked with the old man, even my grandmother gave me I went out, but I still don't understand what it means. The less people who know about this matter, the better.

I didn't say much, I pulled Chen Hanbiao and walked back, because I couldn't see anything here, and there was no need to waste time here, but Chen Hanbiao suddenly said, I want to go back to his house to have a look, and Said the old man said, let him stay at my house for a few days first, no, this is just the time to go back to those few changes of clothes.

Hearing Chen Hanbiao say that the old man asked him to stay at my house for a few days, I was puzzled, and I couldn't say that he didn't want to, because Chen Hanbiao was doing well, and he had always protected me in this mulberry forest, and I remembered his friendship. , but I know that the old man is not the kind of targeted person. He wants Chen Hanbiao to take it with me at home. He definitely has some purpose. Of course, I don’t ask more, because I know he doesn’t say much.

I responded to Chen Hanbiao and followed him to his house. I was laughing and joking along the way, and I was just an accompanying guest. I just listened to Chen Hanbiao talking alone, and told me the general outline of the village. Last time In the evening, I was talking about going to Laolong Mountain, but I didn’t expect this idiot to remember it, saying that it’s okay to go home, and it’s not too late, so he took me to Laolong Mountain for a stroll.
