Bazhou is the intersection of the three provinces, and further up is the birthplace of the Xuanhe River.
Although they were in the same province, it still took us two days to reach our destination despite the distance of thousands of kilometers.
It happened to be early morning when we arrived in front of Tang Town.
There are specks of fog, and the entire Tang Town is surrounded by undulating low hillsides.
The earthen mountains are covered with green turf, not showing any trace of earth color, and exuding extremely strong vitality.
The entire Tang Town is full of buildings with strong ethnic customs. Either a large house with a red roof and glazed tiles and a pavilion-style building on the top, or a single-story house with a yellow tile roof.
The special thing is that no matter how big these houses are, they only have one roof.
At least as far as I could see, I could see that there was a house bigger than the Feng family, and it only had that roof.
These are all sub-houses within the house.
Even if there is a courtyard, the brightest light can only be found under the skylight exposed in the middle pavilion.
I originally thought that based on the strength of the Gou family, the house should be the largest in Tang Town.
But he didn't expect that the Gou family was not in Tang Town, but to the north of Tang Town, almost ten kilometers away.
I even saw the first bay of the so-called Jiuqu Hanging River!
In my own impression, the Xuanhe River is full of sediment and the environment of the entire river is not very good.
In fact, this first bay is at least several hundred meters across.
The water flow is gentle, and there are many small islands on it with lush vegetation. There are many water birds on the water, and there are also fishermen crossing it.
Liu Wensan sighed softly: "Xuanhe has raised countless people and swallowed up countless lives. There are also bones under this tranquility. Don't take it lightly just looking at this beauty."
I nodded and said I certainly wouldn't.
When passing the first bay, we also bypassed a hill, and there was a temple behind the hill.
After walking for a few more kilometers, we stopped in front of a meadow with a tributary flowing out of it.
The Gou family's house is located here.
The entire house is astonishingly large. The average house is only three meters high, but this one is at least five or six meters high. The courtyard is high and the walls are thick.
The door is painted bright red, the roof is made of yellow tiles, and there are some strange carved eaves beasts.
There are many boats parked on the tributaries outside, mostly small boats.
This looks more like a corpse-retrieving boat carved on Gu jade, used by corpse-recoverers.
Gou Huang and Xie Ming also got out of the car, and the door was opened.
Only a few people wearing commoners and white hats came out to pick us up.
It was different from what I imagined when I arrived at Gou's house and saw hundreds of people scooping up corpses.
Gou Huang told us to go in first and have a rest, as we were too tired to move.
They also need to be prepared before they can get down to business!
Although Gou Huang spoke in an easy-going manner, his smile was really fake.
Intuition and facial expression cannot be faked.
Especially when I arrived outside Gou's house, I didn't think there was anything wrong a moment ago, but now I felt an indescribable depression.
White hair and sweat appeared on my body for no apparent reason.
Subconsciously, I actually wanted to ask Gou Huang if anything had happened to the Gou family recently.
Because the moment I felt depressed, I thought of Meng Xinshu and her child, the ghost baby protected by the family fairy!
With Xu Baipi protecting him, Xu Damin would be killed!
Xu Baipi will definitely be killed because of his son, and he will never let go of Meng Xinshu.
But Meng Xinshu’s obsession is to come to the Gou family for revenge!
She will definitely not be entangled with Xu Baipi for a long time.
The moment the words were about to come out, Chen Xiazi suddenly looked at me with his gray-white eyes. He patted my shoulder and interrupted my words before I could finish them.
"Liu Wensan, this place is not peaceful. You'd better not get drunk and jump into the water."
Liu Wensan: "..."
"Blind Chen, your eyes are not working well, and your brain is motion sickness? Which of your eyes saw me going into the water?"
"A drunk person will never say that he is drunk, and Liu Wensan, who does not follow the rules, will never abide by the rules." Blind Chen said in an understatement.
But this was abnormal enough. Blind Chen actually said so many words.
This made it clear to me that he was aware of my actions and came to stop me.
Soon I figured it out too.
Meng Xinshu's matter is a mortal enemy of the Gou family. I can't get involved, otherwise I will offend Meng Xinshu, and then the danger will be even greater.
I myself also understand the principle that every wrongdoer has his own owner and every debtor has his own owner. The Gou family must repay their debts themselves.
Entering the door of Gou's house, the light was slightly darker, and the overall tone of the house was very heavy.
I suddenly remembered the similarities...
Isn’t the house in Ji Niang’s grave roughly like this? Roofs enclose all courtyards.
The difference is not small, and the essential structure of the house is also different.
After walking through a closed corridor, we came to a separate courtyard. Gou Huang asked us to rest first, and later someone would bring us food and drink, and the rooms would be available for us to stay in.
When he left, he patted the courtyard door, smiled and told us to try not to go out of the courtyard to avoid unnecessary trouble.
After a minute or two, Liu Wensan frowned and said, "This place is filled with dead people, like a ghost house."
"The courtyards in Tang Town have all been opened up and have a second floor built to let in the daylight. The roofs here are sealed, and one house contains dozens of houses. It is indeed the construction method of the Yin House. It is said to be a Yin House, but it can also be regarded as a tomb..." I started to say. .
Liu Wensan quenched his saliva, then glanced at Blind Chen and said, "Blind Chen, what did you mean just now?"
I quickly went to persuade Liu Wensan and explained what I understood to Blind Chen. Of course, my voice was very low and I noticed that the walls had ears.
Liu Wensan remained silent.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, someone brought food, all of them young men.
Wearing the same attire, commoner, white cloth wrapped around his head.
They didn't speak until they were walking out. Liu Wensan grabbed someone's shoulder and asked them to bring some wine. The man waved his hand and pointed with his mouth open. There was a severed tongue inside... …
Then he pointed to his ears and shook his head.
Liu Wensan's face turned ugly and he let him go.
After eating and chatting briefly, Liu Wensan said that he could only wait until Gou Huang came. He was so tired from the journey, so he should go to bed first.
I am indeed tired. Although I have many doubts in my heart, keeping my spirits up is the first priority.
I chose a room and went in. I watched Shadow Burial for a while before falling asleep.
I have almost memorized what I should remember in the House Classics. I just need more practice to integrate these things.
I am wary and sleep very lightly.
But after sleeping for a little longer, I felt a faint fragrance. On the contrary, my body felt dead and my consciousness kept falling.
Although I fell asleep, I could feel something pressing on my chest, it seemed like a pair of small hands, pulling at my clothes.
Inexplicably, I heard a young and gloomy voice.
"Luo Shiliu, let me see what color your conscience is." These words were particularly hollow, which made me feel like I had lost consciousness, and I felt even more frightened.
