After a while, several people finally walked into Shajing Village.
As Ling Xueyan said, a large area of the mountains and rivers in Shajing Village has been turned into a resort.
Look at the layout of the mountain and the water. The clear spring water gurgling down the mountain. There is also a large lake in the center of the resort. There are boats in the lake for tourists to play. There are many lakes and rivers on the other side. With the scenery of willows hanging on the shore, the entire resort looks pleasant and makes people feel quite relaxed and happy...
It is indeed a great place for a relaxing vacation!
"Let's go, I'll take you to my uncle's house!"
Walking on the main road in Shajing Village, Ling Xueyan turned back and said to Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing behind her.
"good!"
Yin Xiu responded.
After a while, Ling Xueyan led Yin Xiu to the courtyard of a rather luxurious villa. Judging from the appearance of the villa, it was obvious that someone had specially designed it.
Moreover, the entire villa together with the courtyard is quite spacious, at least more than one acre, close to two acres.
There are many trees planted in the courtyard, covered with turf and flower beds, and the walking walkways are paved with marble. Even in a suburban village, such a luxurious villa courtyard is quite enviable.
Not to mention anything else, in terms of construction cost alone, this villa, together with the trees and flower beds in the courtyard, would cost at least several million.
It can be seen that Ling Xueyan's uncle is also a rich man.
"You guys wait a minute, I don't know if my uncle is at home or not, I'm going to take pictures of the door." Ling Xueyan turned around and said.
Then he walked forward, patted the closed iron door, and shouted inside: "Uncle, aunt. Are you at home?"
Ling Xueyan shouted several times in succession.
Not long after, a voice came from inside, "It's Xueyan here. Just wait a moment, and I'll go down and open the door for you..."
The sound actually came from upstairs. If you look up, you can vaguely see a person standing in front of one of the windowsills on the second floor, opening the curtains and looking outside.
"Okay aunt!"
Ling Xueyan also raised her head, narrowed her eyes and glanced at the man in front of the window on the second floor of the villa, and responded quickly.
After a while, a woman in her forties, who seemed to be very well-maintained, came out of the villa and quickly walked to the door and opened it.
"Xueyan, come on, come in quickly..."
The woman opened the iron door. He quickly greeted Ling Xueyan.
Ling Xueyan smiled sweetly and responded: "Hey, thank you, aunt."
After saying that, she looked back at Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing behind her, and then said to the woman: "Aunt, these two are my friends. They want to ask uncle something."
"oh?"
When the woman heard this, she raised her head and glanced at Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing with some surprise. Finally, her eyes fell on Yin Xiu. Seeing Yin Xiu's handsome appearance, she couldn't help but glance at her niece Ling Xueyan in front of her. There was an inexplicable smile in his eyes.
Then he greeted him very enthusiastically: "Come, come, come in together. If you have anything to do, go inside and sit down to talk..."
Yin Xiu naturally saw that the other party seemed to have misunderstood something. However, since they didn't say anything about this, it wouldn't be easy to clarify anything. It would just seem pretentious and self-righteous.
So Yin Xiu just smiled gently and responded: "Okay, then I won't bother you."
"Don't disturb, don't disturb. Come on, come in quickly!" Ling Xueyan's aunt greeted with a smile.
Yin Xiu smiled, then turned around and called Ning Yuejing beside him, "Xiao Jing. Let's go."
"Um."
Ning Yuejing responded softly and walked in together with Yin Xiu and Ling Xueyan.
After a while, several people walked into the villa. The decoration inside was as Yin Xiu expected. It's very luxurious, even a bit majestic.
Ling Xueyan's aunt asked Yin Xiu and the others to sit down. He went to pour a few cups of tea, and then asked: "I wonder what I call this little brother?"
Yin Xiu took the tea cup and responded politely: "My surname is Yin, and my name only has the character Xiu."
After a few brief greetings, Aunt Ling Xueyan asked: "By the way, Xueyan just said that you have something to ask her uncle. I wonder what it is? Her uncle is still at the resort, not at home. What's the matter? If so, you can talk to me first..."
Yin Xiudao: "That's right, I came to Shajing Village this time to find someone..."
"Find someone?"
Aunt Ling Xueyan was slightly startled, and then asked: "I wonder what the name of the person you are looking for is? I basically know everyone in this village."
Yin Xiu couldn't help but smile and said slowly: "The man I want to find is called Wu Zhongkun. I don't know if you have heard of this name."
"Wu Zhongkun?"
Aunt Ling Xueyan frowned and thought for a moment, then quickly shook her head and asked, "Are you sure he is from our Shajing Village? Why don't I seem to have heard of anyone with this name in the village?"
Yin Xiu responded: "He is indeed from Shajing Village. But if nothing else, he should have been dead for many years, so it's not surprising that you haven't heard of this name."
Hearing Yin Xiu's answer, Aunt Ling Xueyan was immediately surprised and asked: "How old is the person you are looking for?"
"If you count the age, he should be around 110 years old. That's why I said he should have been dead for many years..."
Yin Xiu replied.
Aunt Ling Xueyan was even more surprised when she heard this, and said: "If you are already one hundred and ten years old, you must be gone long ago. It seems that I have never seen anyone in this village who has lived past ninety years since I married here. Calculating this, if there was such a person in the village before, he must have been dead for at least twenty or thirty years."
"Maybe."
Yin Xiu responded, "I came here this time just to ask the old people in the village if anyone knows this person. The most important thing is to find out if he has any descendants, and where he is buried." , I want to go and pay homage..."
Hearing Yin Xiu's words, Aunt Ling Xueyan couldn't help but nodded slightly and said, "I'm afraid I really have to ask the elders in the village or look up the genealogy to find out."
"But why do you suddenly want to find such a person who has been dead for at least twenty or thirty years?"
Not only Ling Xueyan's aunt was curious, but Ling Xueyan, who was sitting nearby and listening, was also looking at Yin Xiu curiously.
In this regard, Yin Xiu had to excuse: "It was an ancestor of my family who had a close relationship with him when he was young. However, due to the war, the two parties lost contact for many years. Not long ago, my family was packing up the things left by that ancestor. I just discovered a suicide note, so I came here based on the information mentioned in the suicide note, hoping to find the grave of my ancestor’s old friend so I could pay my respects.”
"If there are still descendants of our ancestor's old friend, it would be best to meet them..."
It was naturally impossible for Yin Xiu to tell them that Wu Zhongkun was his friend. He was an old monster who had lived for more than a hundred years. So I can only use this excuse to cover up.
After listening to Yin Xiu's explanation, Ling Xueyan and her aunt didn't have any doubts.
"So that's it."
Aunt Ling Xueyan nodded suddenly, and then said: "Let's see, Xueyan's uncle is still at the resort. I will go with you to find him later, and ask him to go to the village to ask the old people who are there. I don’t know the person you’re talking about.”
"Okay, I'll trouble you then..."
Yin Xiu said hurriedly.
"Then you guys wait here for a while, I'll go change my clothes and come down." After that, he said to Ling Xueyan: "Xueyan, you stay here for a while, I'll come down soon..."
Aunt Ling Xueyan was wearing loose home clothes.
"Hey, okay, Auntie, you go ahead." Ling Xueyan responded quickly after hearing this.
After Aunt Ling Xueyan walked upstairs, Ling Xueyan looked at Yin Xiu in surprise and said, "I didn't expect that the person you are looking for is over a hundred years old and has been dead for a long time. I thought it was someone from this village. I actually know a martial arts master like you!"
Yin Xiu smiled and said: "Are you surprised to meet me? You can be regarded as knowing me now."
"Uh... Okay. But anyway, I just think that a martial arts master like you should be the kind of master who comes and goes without a trace and walks around the world casually. There should be a big distance between him and ordinary people."
Ling Xueyan tilted her head slightly, glanced at Yin Xiu, and said.
"Actually, it's not bad. It's just that most ordinary people may have never been in contact with it, so they will feel that the distance is very far away, and it may even feel a little unreal."
After a slight pause, Yin Xiu continued: "Really speaking, in addition to some people who have been cultivating in the mountains and fields, there are still many warriors who are among ordinary people in the city."
"For example, Wu Zhongkun I mentioned just now. In fact, he was a martial artist back then. If he still has descendants, there must be more or less some kung fu passed down in the family... "
Ling Xueyan was surprised when she heard this, "Is it true? It turns out that there are martial arts masters hidden in my uncle's village! I just don't know whose ancestor the Wu Zhongkun you are talking about is from."
Yin Xiu shook his head and said: "Ask your uncle to ask, it would be best if you can check the genealogy. I also hope that he still has descendants left."
This is Yin Xiu’s true words.
His friendship with Wu Zhongkun back then was quite close. If he still has descendants left, Yin Xiu will also be happy. Not to mention anything else, just because of the friendship with Wu Zhongkun back then, it would be okay to take care of his descendants more or less.
But Yin Xiu was worried that Wu Zhongkun had no descendants left behind, or that he had already left the village and disappeared somewhere unknown. After all, the wars and turmoil decades ago not only killed many people, but also caused many people to move to other places.
After chatting with Ling Xueyan in the living room for about ten minutes, Ling Xueyan's aunt finally changed her clothes and came downstairs.
"Okay, let's go."
When Aunt Ling Xueyan came downstairs and saw Yin Xiu and Ling Xueyan chatting, she said hello. (To be continued.)
