"Grandma Luo's house is on the hilltop opposite my house. You can walk with me later. I'm almost going to drive the sheep back to cook. Hey, it's strange. I've never heard of Grandma Luo before.

Are there any relatives like you?"

Yang Hongyu helped the yellow dog Baicai wipe away the blood, then gently rubbed Baicai's dog's head distressedly, and asked with his face raised.

I smiled and explained: "Xiao Yu, you don't know, your grandma Luo is the youngest sister of our grandfather's generation. She married to you from Guizhou decades ago, and has never returned to her parents' home, and has never been with her grandfather again."

They have also lost contact. Grandpa and the others are getting older and are not in good health, so they thought of letting a few of us juniors come to visit my aunt, so as not to cut off this family relationship in our generation."

The little girl seems to be very happy with the way I call her. Xiaoyu should be her nickname. My brother's authentic Lancang accent is really popular.

She hooked her fingers at me, gesturing for me to get closer. I glanced at the well-behaved Baicai and slowly moved closer.

She said in a low voice: "Are you brothers and sisters? That sister, she looks so fierce. Please help me say something nice to her, just say that Baicai and I know we are wrong, and ask her to stop being cruel to me, okay?"

", Xiao Yu said, his eyes secretly glancing at Tang Keyun from time to time. That look was both funny and cute.

I nodded and waved to Taiqing and the others.

"What are you doing? What did you two whisper just now?" Tang Keyun's tone was a bit strange.

Tai Qing smiled and said, "Okay, I'm still a kid, so I'm not a bad person, right? Xiao Yu?"

I have to say that being handsome really appeals to all men and women, old and young. This guy is tall and can easily give people a sense of security.

Seeing what Tai Qing said, Xiao Yu nodded, and I immediately said: "Okay, okay, our Tang Dynasty beauty is the prime minister who can support a boat. Besides, Xiao Yu also knows that he is wrong. This

Why don't you take us to visit relatives?"

Tang Keyun is a smart girl. Besides, the two of us gentlemen are trying to coax her along with her temper and analyze the pros and cons. This girl is still sensible, but she has a preconceived bad impression of Xiao Yu, so

When I walked with my little baby, I still had some grudges.

Yang Hongyu is an 11-year-old girl. She has a grandfather who depends on her at home. Grandpa farms in front of and behind the house, and she is responsible for herding the three sheep that her grandfather and grandson bought after hard work.

We asked her why she didn't go to school and whether her parents didn't care about her. Unexpectedly, she didn't complain or look sad. Instead, she happily told us the reason.

"I was picked up by my grandpa. I haven't seen my parents since I was a child. Grandpa said that our home is too far from the school and he is afraid that it will be unsafe for me to go to and from school alone. Moreover, the teachers in the school taught me better than them.

Don’t look at it, I didn’t go to school seriously, I know a lot of things!”

After all, she is a child. When the little girl talks about the people she is close to and respects, her joy and pride are beyond words.

We all looked at each other.

Yang Hongyu has a cheerfulness and optimism that we can hardly imagine. This may also be a kind of happiness for her.

Beauty Tang was also moved by the little girl's life experience. She no longer cared about the previous incident and turned into a close elder sister.

"Xiao Yu, can you make friends if you don't go to school? You must know that children of the same age as you should be studying in school and have made many friends."

Yang Hongyu drove the three goats she called "Big Hair, Er Mao, and San Mao" and led us downhill while chatting with us.

Perhaps there are very few people to chat with her, but she always answers our questions seriously and expectantly.

"Well... I have a lot of friends, but they all go to school. We can only play together after school or when they have a break. I still remember that the teachers from the school came to my house and asked my grandpa to promise me to go to school.

It’s just that grandpa never agreed. Then I never went there, and I just learned things from grandpa at home, hehe.”

Ordinarily, in this era, there are very few old people like Xiaoyu and her grandfather who stubbornly refuse to send their children to school. Moreover, compulsory education has become popular. Tuition and miscellaneous fees for primary schools were exempted in 2006. Studying and going to school is no longer a burden. As for

The "security issue" her grandfather mentioned is unclear.

After walking for less than ten minutes, she pointed towards an old-fashioned mud-skid house and said that was the aunt's house we were looking for. Xiao Yu said that she would drive the sheep back first and prepare dinner later.

She didn’t go with us. After saying that, she glanced at me, then at her dog Baicai, and asked me dubiously: "Don’t lie to me. If something goes wrong with my Baicai, neither my grandpa nor I will let it go."

Your cabbage, let’s go!”

These seemingly threatening words came from the mouth of a child. While they were a bit more funny, they also made people see the child's innocence and kindness.

"How cruel must these parents be to abandon such a good child?..." Tang Keyun felt quite emotional for a while.

I felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this, and I was even more determined to solve the mystery behind his disappearance. Of course, what I wanted more about was to learn more about him.

Pulling back our thoughts, the three of us looked at the house that almost blended into the surrounding mountain environment, and we all felt a sense of loneliness and desolation in our hearts.

It’s not that I’ve never seen an earthen dustpan house before, but the original green and black tiles on the top of the house in front of me have lost their original appearance. Instead, they have been replaced by long and messy weeds, and the exterior walls of the house have also been covered with dirt.

The traces of time exude the luster of the mountains and rocks behind.

We stood in front of the wooden door that was coated with pulp and had cracks all over the top and bottom. We ignored the faded and cracked paper portrait of the door god on it. Through the door panel and the gap between the two door panels, we could vaguely catch a glimpse of the scene inside the house.

Bang bang bang!

Tang Keyun didn't discuss it with us and knocked on the door directly.

"Is anyone here? Is anyone here?"

This girl is sometimes much more decisive in doing things than the two elder men like us.

When we knocked on the door and called, no one answered. At first we thought it was because the old man had difficulty with his legs and feet or had hearing problems, so we called a few more times. But after waiting for a long time, no one answered the door, so we wondered if he might go out and be away from home.

Out of politeness and safety considerations, we didn't dare to push the door in, so we had to sit in rows in front of the door.

*I have seen that there is no one inside. But there is an awkward feeling in the room, which is indescribably weird. How about you go in and explore?* What kind of bad idea did the ghost girl come up with? She knew it was weird, but she still...

Let my brother explore the road! I suffered a lot in her hands, so I immediately complained to her.

*I think we should act more prudent and not be like reckless people. Since there are weird things inside, we should think of countermeasures to ensure everyone's safety. Don't just let me go...*

"Ah! Damn..."

The buddy was knocked backwards by a force coming out of his body. Before the word "Fuck" could be heard, two wooden doors were knocked open with a clang, and he fell onto his back in a panic...

*Damn girl, your uncle’s... Ouch!*

Just as he scolded her, a door panel probably couldn't withstand the impact just now, and scattered into several small wooden boards and fell down. Two of them hit my buddy's belly...

I stood up cursing, and that guy Tai Qing came over to help me with a smile, but my buddy saw Tang Keyun quickly put the phone into his pocket. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and it wasn't until later by chance that I realized that this girl was actually embarrassed by my buddy.

His appearance was recorded on video... People’s hearts are not as old as they used to be!

"I said, Ah Fei, why are you so crazy? Look at the tatters on the front door."

This guy Tai Qing has a smile on his face, and there is a bit of blame in his words. I want to complain, but I have no place to redress my grievances!

"Yo yo yo, Chao Wei, what's wrong with you, pfft - kidney deficiency and weak feet?" The Tang beauty went even further, even if she laughed out loud, she also attacked her personally...

This couple is a bitch! I don’t have the same experience as you.

Although it's embarrassing to break someone's door, and it also feels a bit like breaking into a house, there is no other way. The matter is at this point, so we can only take one step at a time.

I held my back and stood up with Tai Qing's help, secretly scolding the ghost girl in my heart.

Making such a big fuss was contrary to our original intention, but there was nothing we could do about it. It was not until I got very familiar with the ghost girl that I realized that she was trying to clear the way for my brother to get stabbed. It was simply inhumane!

The courtyard is surprisingly tidy, which is in stark contrast to the dilapidated appearance of the house. The first thing you can see is a half-person-high stone mill in the northeast corner, with debris accumulated on it and dirt and moss hanging on it. There are probably no donkeys, and it looks like it has been idle.

Many years.

Outside the closed hall, there is an old-fashioned wash rack with washbasins, towels and other items. There are also some dried chili peppers and corn cobs hanging under the eaves, which is full of the atmosphere of life.

While we were observing, the ghost girl yelled to be careful, but because her tone did not sound urgent or nervous, I relaxed and then felt a pain in my arm, as if I had been hit by something!

"What's wrong with you? Hey, what is this?" Tang Keyun saw that I was behaving strangely, so she asked, and then she seemed to have discovered something.

I saw her picking up an object as big as a quail egg from beside my feet, taking one look at it, and then started playing with it with great interest.

"There's a note wrapped around it!"

Tai Qing and we looked at each other after hearing this, gathered around her, and read the note together.

/Three talents, proceed with caution/

The two of them may still be a little confused, but their brothers were surprised. The Sancai on this note is probably the Sancai Association!

Could it be that the Sancai Association really pursued Cao Yazi?

The ghost girl and I warned her that there were a few strange auras that appeared and disappeared suddenly. She probably used a spell such as the Red Pot Invisibility Technique that disabled her five senses. From this, we can infer that it was probably the people from the Sancai Association.

.

I took a few steps back and touched Tai Qing's arm with my arm, signaling that he was in danger and asking him to take care of Tang Keyun.

The boy understood, and protected Tang Keyun by his side, slowly moved closer to me, and the three of us slowly retreated towards the gate.

I only brought two red pots for each person when I came here. They were prepared to be used as a last resort in case of danger. After all, this thing is only effective for an hour. The ghost girl repeatedly emphasized that over-reliance on this kind of unknown origin is extremely convenient.

Not only will it not be of any help to our own training and improvement, it will also cause us to develop a dependence mentality, only seeking convenience when encountering problems and avoiding thinking too much.

Moreover, this thing is not completely free of side effects. Not to mention that the invisibility method was researched by the Sancai Association. The birth of this red pot alone is very mysterious, and it is inextricably linked to the ghost bone rock and the living talisman of the doll grave.

Relationship, the body of ordinary people may not be able to support the damage caused by frequent use of Akatsuki.

Zhang Renshi (Zhang Tuo) once told me that the Red Pot Invisibility Technique is an efficacious magic that can only be found in Dengxing Village. Although he used the Red Pot Invisibility Technique on me at that time, he did not teach me how to recite the incantation and urge me to do it.

Later, when Mrs. Liu came to the hospital to see me, I found out from her.

"This Chihu invisibility method is indeed spread from the Sancai Association, but it is not a profound method, and there is no definition of territory. I have experimented before, and it can be used outside of Dengxing Village, but the invisibility time is different.

Another two hours, but the effect is the same."

This is what Old Mrs. Liu said exactly, but she didn't have a way to crack the Chihu invisibility method herself. She just taught me how to use it, but that's enough!
