Zhang Lin nodded, okay, is there any other way besides promising him?

  "Zhang Lin, what is your purpose here?" Geng Lisan asked suddenly.

  Zhang Lin was at a loss for words. He came here to rob the tomb and to look at the contents of the coffin.

  But he couldn't tell Geng Lisan like that,

  "Third Master, I got lost here, so I had to come in."

  Geng Lisan snorted: "It seems that we have a fate. Since that's the case, I'll trouble you to investigate the matter of the Geng family."

  Zhang Lin really didn't even have a chance to refuse, so he agreed.

  "Then I'll leave from here now and ask." Zhang Lin stood up and was about to leave.

  But before he took a few steps, he was dragged back by Geng Lisan. He took off a piece of the rotten flesh from his wrist and stuffed it into Zhang Lin's mouth.Zhang Lin felt nauseated for a while.

  "Bah, bah, third master, what are you doing?"

  "Within ten days, I will give you the antidote when you come back."

  "Can't you come back?"

  "Then you will die"

  Zhang Lin was a little helpless and could only ask for more happiness.

  He looked back at the coffin and said, "Okay, I'll find out the situation for you, but I want something after it's done."

  "Can"

  Zhang Lin was about to go out, but the old woman stopped him this time: "Wait, take this with you."

  The old woman took out a map of brocade material from the coffin, on which was painted the former residence of the Geng family and the surrounding terrain.

  "This can help you."

  Zhang Lin took it, looked at the writing on it, and thought deeply.

  Then he put on the sheepskin jacket and went out,

  There was no golden light on the rune at the door, and it was dead silent. When Zhang Lin went out, there was still no change.

  Seeing the broken cement road at the door, Zhang Lin was a little bit in trouble. He tiptoed on the place where there was cement, and then walked out.

  Looking back, there was fog on the mountain again, Zhang Lin frowned and didn't look back.

  Judging from the terrain on the map, the place where the Geng family lived before is not far from here.

  Although time has passed for a long time, the mountains and rivers will not change.

  According to the drawing on the map, after climbing over two mountains, Zhang Lin came to a place with flat terrain.

  Looking around, a piece of golden yellow is planted here, and a large area of ​​wheat is planted here, and it will be harvested soon.

  After walking for a few days, I didn't have much to eat. I encountered two wild fruits along the way, so Zhang Lin was starving to death now.

  He jumped out of the wheat field, reached out and picked a few ears of wheat, and ate it.

  As he was eating, he found that there were watermelons growing in the wheat field, and just when he was thirsty, he picked a watermelon and smashed it open with his fist.

  The red watermelon flesh was brought to his mouth, he took a bite, and the sweet juice flowed to the corner of his mouth.

  He hasn't had water for two days, and this watermelon is a life-saving melon for him.

  After Zhang Lin finished eating a large piece, he picked up another piece and ate it.

  So sweet.

  The more you eat, the more addicted you are.

  While he was eating happily, a figure came into his eyes.

  An uncle in a gray and white coat, a straw hat and a shovel in his hand was looking at him angrily.

  As soon as Zhang Lin raised his head, he met the uncle's angry face, and Zhang Lin threw away the watermelon in his hand.

  "Master, I'm just too hungry. I saw a watermelon here and picked one."

  Seeing that the uncle didn't believe it, Zhang Lin explained again: "I'm really hungry."

  The uncle frowned and said angrily: "The wheat is ripe, the most annoying thing is to come to the field and spoil the banker at this time."

  How did Zhang Lin explain that the uncle didn't believe it, so he had to lose money: "Uncle, tell me the price, how about I pay you?"

  The anger on the uncle's face seemed to loosen, and he said slowly for a while: "Okay, if you are willing to pay, that's fine."

  Zhang Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief, nothing money can solve is not a problem.

  It was his fault anyway, and he took someone else's stuff anyway.

  The compensation.

  He put his hand into his pocket and said, "Master, although these things of yours are worthless, they are life-saving things for me, and I will pay you [-] yuan."

  The uncle nodded: "Okay.".

Chapter 228

  Zhang Lin fumbled with his hand in his pocket for a while, but couldn't find the wallet. He turned it over again, but still couldn't find it.

  No, I clearly put my wallet in the pocket of my clothes, why is it gone now.

  After flipping through it six times, the uncle's expression became impatient, and he said anxiously, "Do you still want to lose money?"

  Seeing that the uncle was in a hurry, Zhang Lin had to explain first and tell him not to worry: "I'll look for it again, I remember that the wallet is here, you wait for me for a while."

  After searching, he couldn't find it, so he simply pulled down the sheepskin jacket, and turned the left and right pockets over and over again, and there was only a box of matches in it.

  Looking at the box of matches in his hand, Zhang Lin was stunned. Why was his wallet missing? Did it fall out in the cemetery?

  This sheepskin jacket was only taken off when it was in the cemetery.

  The wallet should also have fallen out at that time.

  The uncle saw that Zhang Lin rummaged through and couldn't find the money. He thought the [-] yuan was to deceive him, so he said, "You smash it, I don't want [-] yuan, so you can pay me [-] yuan."

  Zhang Lin smiled helplessly, he lost his wallet: "Master, why don't you wait for me, I'll go back and come back again?"

  The uncle frowned and waved his hand: "I'm unlucky, you can pay ten yuan for a melon."

  ten dollars?

  Zhang Lin didn't expect the price cut to drop so fast, but he couldn't get it for only ten yuan.

  "Master, I really didn't lie to you, I really want to compensate, but can I delay it for a few days?"

  "What? Don't want to pay ten yuan? Don't go too far, boy." The uncle picked up the shovel and waved it.

  Zhang Lin shook his head, he really didn't do it on purpose, if he hadn't lost his wallet, he would have given the money to the uncle, but now, no matter how he explained it, the uncle just didn't believe him.

  Zhang Lin is also aggrieved, let alone ten dollars, he doesn't even have a dime.

  "Otherwise, you can send me an IOU, and I will pay you back later." Zhang Lin said.

  "I haven't seen you like this, you go, I'm unlucky." "The uncle has run out of patience, and if he continues, he may hit someone.

  Zhang Lin looked around, and although there was a wheat field, he didn't see anyone else.

  For those who are unfamiliar with their life here, and it is difficult to see someone, it is not good to just leave.

  Zhang Lin chased after three steps, stopped in front of the uncle, and said, "Master, what is this place? Why didn't I see anyone else?"

  "This is my family." The uncle said angrily.

  Zhang Lin snorted, and since that was the case, he could only go to the uncle.

  "I came from outside. Now that I'm here, my wallet has dropped, and I have no money to eat. Can you take me in, sir?"

  The uncle's eyes widened. He didn't ask for the compensation, and he had to keep it himself, which was too much.

  "You still want to eat and drink for free?" The uncle waved his shovel angrily.

  Zhang Lin didn't dodge, the shovel just hit his head.

  The uncle looked at him with his eyes closed and didn't hide. He took the shovel away and muttered, "What a bum."

  Zhang Lin didn't care what the uncle said about him, anyway, the most urgent thing right now was to find a place to eat so that he wouldn't starve to death.

  "So, are you willing to take me in?" Zhang Lin shouted.

  The uncle walked forward and said casually, "Come with me."

  Zhang Lin followed. Twenty minutes later, he came to a house. The uncle unlocked the door with the key, and the two walked in.

  The house has only three bungalows, and the place is not big.

  Zhang Lin wandered around, and then said, "You live here by yourself."

  "Well, it's just me, and you will be responsible for cleaning the yard and tidying up the sundries in the future."

  Zhang Lin also agreed. After all, there is no free lunch in the world: "Thank you for taking me in."

  In the evening, the uncle boiled potatoes and made some pickles, even if it was dinner.

  Zhang Lin ate a few potatoes, but there was no taste.

  The uncle rolled his eyes at him: "Why isn't it delicious?"

  Zhang Lin smiled.

  "That's how the food at home is. If you're not used to it, you should leave early."

  As soon as Zhang Lin heard this, he immediately explained, how could he go now, a place he finally found.

  "I'm just not used to it."

  The uncle snorted and went back to sleep.

  Zhang Lin took it back, sent the two plates back to the room, and then went back to the room to rest.

  There are three houses in total, one for the uncle and Zhang Lin.

  The remaining space is empty.
