We both stepped into the courtyard gate at the same time.
At a glance, I saw that the door on the west side was open, and Zhu Xie was standing in front of a bookshelf with Dun Kong in his arms. Dun Kong was holding a book tightly in his hand and refused to let go.
Zhu Xun took the book down.
Because of this, Dunkong's crying face was covered with tears.
"Lao Zhu." I shouted in a low voice, and at the same time, Zhu Xian stopped his movements.
Dunkong struggled twice, shrank from him, and ran towards He Fei.
Soon, he arrived in front of He Pheasant, who picked him up.
I caught a glimpse. What Dunkong was holding in his hand was actually the Xu Fu Travel Notes?
At the same time, I discovered that Dunkong, who was originally very ill, seemed to be in much better spirits.
"Sir... Young Master, he..." Zhu Xie lowered his head and explained in a low voice.
Basically, Dunkong was lying here looking at it for a long time, and suddenly he opened the door.
Zhu Xie wanted to coax the child, but he didn't stop him.
But he didn't expect that Dunkong wouldn't let go of the note when he took it.
He just wanted to put it down and come out quickly.
I took a deep breath and said, "Lao Zhu, it's okay. Let Dunkong hold it first."
There is a little more thought in my eyes.
Logically speaking, Dunkong is still just a child, and he is still at the stage where he doesn't understand anything.
But suddenly he held Xu Fu's Travel Notes and refused to let go. There must be something wrong with it.
Everything recorded in Xu Fu's Travel Notes is a talisman. It can even be said that every page in the first half of the book is a talisman.
Could it be said that there is a talisman in this book that is good for Dunkong's soul?
People have an instinct, especially children, to approach things that make them comfortable.
"Yin Yang?" He Zhi called me softly.
Only then did I come to my senses and let go of my thoughts.
I smiled and looked at Zhu Xie, and then said: "It's Dragon Boat Festival, I'm going on a long trip, let's go to the house to have a meal with Zhu Xie."
Zhu Xie nodded, obviously he had some guesses.
On the way back to Li's house, I hugged Dunkong over.
He lowered his head, hugged Xu Fu Travels with his hands, and pouted his little mouth slightly.
I don't know if it was because of nervousness or other reasons, but there was a trace of blood on the cheeks that had always been pale.
After a while, we returned to the house.
A two-year-old child was running around naughtily in the courtyard, with a dark piece of Gu jade hanging around his neck. He looked extremely lively and had completely different personalities from Dun Kong.
Next to the wooden table in the main hall, the second uncle held a wine glass in his hand, sipping it one mouthful at a time. Xu Zhengjin, a paper man, sat beside him, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.
As soon as I entered the house, Paperman Xu looked at me and nodded.
The second uncle also turned around and shouted to the child: "Pingjiang, come over and start dinner!"
That child is the second uncle's son, Liu Pingjiang.
Liu Pingjiang let out a wow and ran to his second uncle's side excitedly.
After the second uncle hugged him, he picked up the wine glass and brought it to his lips.
Liu Pingjiang pursed his lips, whined and dodged, and was about to cry.
"You're an old man who doesn't cultivate himself. You feed your child alcohol every day. Do you want him to be a drunkard like you?" Paperman Xu frowned and said.
"What do you know? Wine is the essence of food." The second uncle said angrily.
He Zhi smiled bitterly and shook her head, and she stepped into the kitchen.
At this moment, the kitchen door is open, and Bai Shuangqin can be seen busy inside.
I said hello to my second uncle Zhiren Xu, and Zhu Xie did the same. The two of us went to the main room and sat down.
The second uncle glanced at me and then said: "Dragon begets dragon, phoenix begets phoenix. My Liu Guishou's son was born with a three-thirds alcohol tolerance. Look at Yin and Yang, Dunkong is so big, and he actually wants to study?"
"Yin Yang, Dunkong is not in good health. Studying at such a young age... I don't feel very good."
"According to what my second uncle said, you had a lot of yin energy when you were young, so you learned how to fish out corpses. It would be better to let Dunkong follow me to fish out corpses first, or learn some paper-tying skills from Paperman Xu, now that you are older , be Mr. again.”
"There is no need to rush." The second uncle's first sentence was obviously to refute the paper man Xu, but after he said it, he became much more serious.
There are hidden problems in the escape, and the second uncle and the paper man Xu don't know everything.
They knew they couldn't help with this matter, but they were more worried.
I just mentioned the two phenomena of heavy Yin Qi and weak soul.
Xu Ze, the paper man, shook his head and said: "I don't think so. Dunkong is not in good health. He learned his skills early and has some blessings from his destiny. A low-ranking person will always be a low-ranking person."
The second uncle's eyes suddenly widened. He glanced up and down at the paper man Xu, and his tone became much colder: "I don't see any difference. It's just you who have distinguished yourself."
"Just say less. The child is here, so we can't teach him to be quiet. I think what Lao Xu said makes sense. If Pingjiang can learn to learn talismans, there is really no need to go into the water with you to fish for corpses." The voice came from outside the house. .
Bai Shuangqin and He Fei were carrying some dishes respectively. Bai Shuangqin complained slightly and said to the second uncle: "Why are you giving your child alcohol again?"
The second uncle glared at her but said nothing.
The room became quieter, and I smiled, lowering my head to pay attention to the change in Dun Kong's complexion.
I have determined that Xu Fu's Notes are of great use to Dun Kong.
It's just that I really don't understand the talismans among them, and I don't know which one is effective.
However, if he were to hold this travel journal, nothing unexpected would happen.
I can't even understand this book, and my second uncle, Paper Man Xu, and He Zhi can't even understand it. Moreover, the people around me are all relatives, or close to relatives, so it's impossible to guard against doubting them.
As for what Bai Shuangqin said just now, I can understand her thoughts.
My second uncle never mentioned this matter to me.
When the food was on the table, Bai Shuangqin divided it with chopsticks.
He Zhi said softly: "Second uncle, uncle Xu, and aunt, after finishing this meal, Yin Yang will go away for a while."
There was a look of surprise in the eyes of the second uncle. He frowned and said, "Far away? In the past few years, Tang Town has been quiet and peaceful. Is there anything troublesome that I came to ask you for?"
The paper man Xu Ze had a thoughtful look on his face, and he suddenly said: "Jing Jing, it's not really Jing Jing. We all know how much pressure Yin Yang has endured by staying in Tang Town."
The second uncle suddenly stopped talking.
Xu Cai, the paper man, asked me what was going on, and his intuition told him that I looked too calm.
This calm seemed to be for them, not because someone came to ask for help.
I let Dunkong sit on my lap, and after a moment of concentration, I briefly talked about Jiang Pan's matter and how it was related to my fate.
During this trip, I will take Jiang Pan back to Dixianglu to bury the master and show Dunkong his body on the way.
The second uncle's face suddenly looked much better. He nodded and said, "This is indeed a serious matter. I thought..."
His words suddenly stopped.
The meal that followed became much quieter, and everyone around the table was thinking.
When I finally put down my chopsticks, I also made a plan.
