Old Man Wu's words made me slightly stunned. How did he know that I couldn't get in?
It seems that he didn't lie just now. He should have been watching us from beginning to end. But I can't figure out why this old man is staring at us? Could it be that he has something to do with Mr. Hu?
This makes me feel more and more that today's incident must have been deliberately arranged by someone.
Hu Xue shrugged her playful nose and said to Old Man Hu: "Grandpa Wu, can't I just take him to my own home? Why is it that you, old man, want to play chess with my grandpa again?"
But Old Man Wu waved his hand towards her, "What do you know, girl? Come on, come in with me."
As he spoke, he walked towards the door of Hu's house. After taking a few pictures, the man just opened the door again. When he saw that it was Old Man Wu, he immediately showed a respectful look.
"Mr. Wu, you're here, what's the matter?"
"Nonsense, open the door, I want to go in and find Old Man Hu," Old Man Wu said unceremoniously.
The other party glanced at me, and then with a smile on his face, he said to Old Man Wu: "Is the old man really not at home?"
"Don't I know if he's at home or not? Get out of the way!"
Old Man Wu pushed the man away and walked directly inside.
The other party didn't dare to say anything, so he could only open the door. Old Man Wu waved to me again, gesturing for me to follow him.
Although I have doubts about his enthusiasm, I have achieved my goal by entering the Hu family.
Just like that, I followed Old Man Wu into the Hu family's courtyard.
The yard is very large, basically equivalent to the area of a factory, and there are many buildings inside. It seems that the Hu family has a large population.
Old Man Wu pointed to the innermost courtyard and told me that it was Old Man Hu's courtyard. As he spoke, he took the lead and walked over there.
But I was suddenly shocked. This compound is not simple.
I secretly observed the buildings in the small courtyard, and the more I looked at it, the more incredible it became, because the houses in the entire courtyard were very particular, and they were arranged according to the Bagua directions. It seemed that they had been directed by an expert.
This arrangement of buildings is called the Return of the Eight Immortals in Feng Shui. It coincides with the Six Yao of the Eight Diagrams and corresponds to the sun, moon and stars. You have me in you, and you have me in you. It can protect the owner's wealth and keep people from wandering around. It is a top-level Feng Shui.
pattern.
I secretly wondered in my heart, could it be my grandfather's handiwork?
This feng shui pattern of the return of the Eight Immortals is enough to take possession of the entire Qinglong Mountain for one's own use. No wonder the Hu family's business can reach such a large scale!
Hu Xue was not idle either. He pointed at these buildings while walking and told me about the people living in them. Through his explanation, I learned that Mr. Hu actually had seven children.
This made me a little surprised, but I felt relieved when I thought about the old man's age. In their time, the average family had at least three or four brothers and sisters, and it was not uncommon to have more than five, six or six or seven.
"Do your family members usually live here? It's quite lively!" I sighed.
To be honest, I still feel a little envious in my heart. What I long for most is this kind of family affection.
Hu Xue shook her head, "We all bought houses in the city. We rarely live here. They are basically empty. We only come back to get together during the holidays. The rest of the time we are here
company, or in other places."
I nodded gently, it was inevitable that this big business would be big, and the life of a rich person might not be as beautiful as I imagined.
While I was talking, a fierce dog barking suddenly came from a small building directly to the west. Sure enough, I heard a strange voice.
"Does anyone else have a dog in your family?" I asked curiously.
"No, no one keeps dogs!"
Hu Xue glanced at the dog barking courtyard to the west and whispered to me: "That is the location of Hu Jiu's family."
When I said this, my heart suddenly moved, and I subconsciously took a second look at Hu Jiu's small building.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always feel like there’s something a little unusual about this small building!
But I didn't think much about it. Just when I was about to walk past, the door of the small courtyard suddenly opened.
The door happened to be facing us. I glanced at it subconsciously and couldn't help but stop in my tracks.
Because I saw a familiar figure in the yard.
When the fat man saw me stopping, he stopped too.
"What's wrong?"
I pointed to the small courtyard and said nothing.
As the door of the small courtyard was opened, two people walked out. One of them was a middle-aged man. However, I jumped over some people and my eyes fell on the other person, because this person suddenly became a thief.
Hu Jiu who broke my coffin.
Parked in the yard behind them was a white truck, which seemed to be pulling something, covered with a square tarpaulin.
I couldn't help but sneer. Don't worry, the things on this car must be the Coiling Dragon Coffin stolen from my house.
Sometimes things in this world are just such coincidences. I wasn't planning to find him, but he appeared in front of me on his own.
Sometimes, I have to sigh, this seems to be the arrangement of fate. Even I did not expect that it was precisely because of this meeting that I was able to retain the entire Hu family.
When I found them, the other party was obviously aware of it. Hu Jiu raised his head and saw me at a glance. The boy's eyes were a little dodgeful, thinking that I was here to cause trouble.
"How did you get in?" Hu Jiu asked subconsciously.
He seemed to know that I was coming, but he didn't think that I could enter the house.
"Let me thank you for Xiaoxue!" I said with a smile.
"Thank me, thank me for what?"
Hu Jiu looked confused.
"Of course, thank you for helping Xiaoxue pull this coffin back, but we are all a family, so saying thank you seems a bit foreign!" I smiled at him again.
Hu Jiu seemed to understand, and hurriedly chased him out of the yard and stopped him. I asked loudly:
"Zhang Jiuyang, what do you mean by this?"
"It doesn't mean anything, I just want to thank you for bringing the coffin back for me." I said with a smile.
Hu Jiu looked at me with a mocking look on his face, as if he had heard some particularly funny joke.
"Zhang Jiuyang, don't get me wrong. I bought this coffin with money. What does it have to do with you?"
Before I could say anything, the fat man became unwilling and pointed at Hu Jiu's nose and started to curse.
"You are so fucking shameless. You stole something while we were not at home. We haven't settled the matter with you yet, and you spent money to buy a coffin. Did you spend a fucking penny? If you were put in Jiangcheng
If the matter comes out, let me see how you end it?"
Hu Jiu's expression suddenly changed, and he snorted gloomily. Before he could speak, he suddenly heard someone talking in the yard.
"Mr. Hu, where is this statue?"
As he finished speaking, he suddenly saw that the tarpaulin on the cargo card in the yard was ripped off.
What was placed on the car was the Coiling Dragon Coffin I carved. But what I didn’t expect was that there was a stone sculpture next to the Coiling Dragon Coffin. The stone carving was completely black and looked a bit like it was showing its teeth and claws. ""
Before I could see clearly what kind of stone sculpture it was, the middle-aged man next to Hu Jiu changed his expression and closed the door with a bang.
