In the dead of night, Zhou Qishan could not take action immediately.
He collected some leaves, packed a large bag, and took them home.
Chen Banshan didn't sleep all night. Early the next morning, he ran downstairs to Zhou Qishan's house and started crying and howling.
"Xiaoshan, can you still sleep at this hour? I couldn't sleep if it were me!" This kid almost raised a loudspeaker and shouted downstairs.
Zhou Qishan scratched his head, struggled to get up from the bed, yawned, and glanced at his phone. The time on it pointed to less than five o'clock. It was getting late in the mountains and the sky was completely dark.
He scolded: "It's only four-thirty-five, and you're not letting people sleep!"
Although Zhou Qishan was not too sleepy and managed to sleep for more than an hour, it would be really unpleasant to wake up suddenly!
Chen Banshan is also familiar with it. He has been playing around here since he was a child. He is also familiar with the situation in this place. He is familiar with the way and went into the yard.
Seeing Zhou Qishan brushing his teeth in the yard, he said with a smile: "Xiaoshan, aren't you up? I didn't come here by mistake..."
Zhou Qishan said angrily: "Even if I get up, Uncle Guan'er is already very old. He is probably still sleeping at this point. What are we going to do here, drink the northwest wind?"
Chen Banshan sat down on the big bluestone at the threshold and said with a smile: "Uncle Gun'er always gets up early and goes late at night. He gets up much earlier than us. If we go there later, he has to work in the fields.
Okay, I’ve made inquiries clearly, just don’t worry, it won’t be early.”
Zhou Qishan was stunned, but he didn't expect that this kid was so thoughtful that he had already figured it out.
But in this case, after brushing his teeth, he rushed to the destination with Chen Banshan. Chen Banshan had many calculations, "Uncle Gun'er is also strange. I asked about it. He is an old bachelor. He has never married a wife.
It’s also quite strange. In our village, even though the older men are ugly and stupid, none of them have wives... He is the only one who has been a bachelor until now."
Zhou Qishan also felt that this boy's investigative ability was really strong, but he thought for a while and said, "I heard that Uncle Gun'er is afraid of women. Didn't the old man at the entrance of the village say that Uncle Gun'er's stepmother made him lame when he was a child? Later, he said
He walks with a slight limp, I guess that's the reason."
The two of them walked all the way and arrived at the door of Uncle Gun'er's house. This place is a bit remote and close to the mountains. There are not many residents living around it. There are three or two empty yards nearby. No one lives there. It is a sparse area.
He was going to the city, and he couldn't come back without taking his family with him.
Chen Banshan pointed to one of them, "These are basically the homes of Uncle Gun'er's brothers. I heard that they all went to work in the city to make money. They took the family over many years ago and kept Gun'er.
An uncle."
Zhou Qishan nodded, Uncle Gun'er's brothers were also capable, and this matter became a popular story in the village.
But I don’t know why, Uncle Gun’er didn’t go with us and stayed alone in the village. I don’t know what he wanted to do.
While they were talking, they saw a stooped figure walking out of the nearby courtyard wall, holding a chamber pot in his hand.
When Chen Banshan saw it, he immediately shouted: "Uncle Gun'er! Uncle Gun'er!"
When the figure saw Chen Banshan, he actually turned around and was about to enter the house. Chen Banshan hurriedly chased after him in three steps and two steps, "Why are you running... We are all fellow villagers who bowed their heads and didn't look up to see each other."
Zhou Qishan also hurriedly chased after him and asked gently: "Uncle Gun'er, it's us!"
Seeing Zhou Qishan also coming, Uncle Gun'er's face was a little uncertain. He didn't know what to do. He forced a smile and said, "Xiaoshan, you... why are you here?"
Chen Banshan hurriedly interjected: "Isn't there still something coming for you? What's the matter? Everyone said that they don't do anything bad and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. What are you afraid of?"
"How can you compare yourself to a ghost? You fucking thing..." Zhou Qishan was also a little helpless. Chen Banshan really couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth.
Uncle Gun'er looked at the two people and didn't know what he was thinking, but he was silent for a while and suddenly said: "Do you have anything to ask me?"
The two looked at each other and said nothing for the time being.
Uncle Gun'er put the chamber pot aside and said, "You guys come in with us."
Although Zhou Qishan and Chen Banshan didn't know what kind of medicine he sold in his gourd, they had an intuition that this matter might be related to what they were investigating. Seeing that Uncle Gun'er had opened the door, they hurriedly followed in.
Uncle Gun'er's house is really shabby and very small. Without a woman, the men's nest will be messy, not to mention that there is a strange smell of mildew in some places.
Chen Banshan had to pinch his nose and mutter: "Damn, my house is dirty enough, why is Uncle Gun'er less human than me?"
Zhou Qishan pulled the kid and told him to stop talking nonsense. But in the darkness, Uncle Gun'er suddenly said: "We are indeed not very good people."
Chen Banshan and Chen Banshan didn't react to these words. It was so dark in the room that they could only clearly see the outline of the person walking in the front. Uncle Gun'er's figure looked weird and twisted, and the things on the four walls were even more ferocious and terrifying.
.
Everything in this room seemed a little mysterious. Zhou Qishan vaguely felt that something was wrong. He even heard Chen Banshan swallowing his saliva.
The main thing is the smell of rotting and spoiling. It's not like Zhou Qishan has never smelled it before. It's like the smell of some animal carcasses gradually decaying. When Zhou Qishan was in the border area, he teamed up with some border anti-drug police to arrest the drug lord Ma Zai.
,
I once smelled a similar scent in a gathering place of the other party.
This was not a good impression. Zhou Qishan's comrades said that they had nightmares for more than ten days in a row. The dreams were full of corpses, including dead policemen and drug dealers.
From that time on, Zhou Qishan hated drug dealers deeply and wanted to kill them whenever he saw them.
But the smell was actually here, which made him a little worried.
Fortunately, not long after, Uncle Gun'er managed to touch somewhere and lit an oil lamp. Suddenly, the originally dark room was illuminated with light.
Seeing that although the furnishings in the house were somewhat messy, they were mostly household items, this scene made them both swallow their hearts in their stomachs.
Uncle Gun'er invited the two of them to sit at the table. Chen Banshan hurriedly asked: "Uncle, we came so early in the morning, it's us or not, it's Xiaoshan who is yelling to come early. This is not our problem... You are too much
Be patient..."
This kid threw the shit basin directly onto Zhou Qishan with his backhand.
Zhou Qishan's face darkened and he cursed: "You little bitch, what are you talking about..."
Chen Banshan continued: "Uncle, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Uncle Gun'er looked at the two young men with a pair of slightly cloudy eyes. He sighed: "You are here this time because of the wooden chicken, right?"
