On the way back to Shajing Village, because Wu Mingyi asked, Yin Xiu told him the reason why he came to Shajing Village to look for Wu Zhongkun in the same way that Aunt Ling Xueyan said.
As for the real truth, it is naturally inconvenient to disclose.
"Little brother, do you want to go to my house and wait for a while, or come with me to find the old man in charge of the genealogy in the village?" Wu Mingyi asked Yin Xiu immediately after returning to Shajing Village.
Yin Xiu replied without thinking too much: "I'd better go with you. It will save you an extra trip."
"Well, that's fine." Wu Mingyi nodded.
At that moment, he said to his wife: "You take Xue Yan to sit at home first. I will take Brother Yin to find the sixth uncle, and ask the sixth uncle to find the genealogy and check it out..."
Aunt Ling Xueyan responded: "That's okay, I'll take Xueyan home first. You guys are busy with your business."
In the countryside, women rarely get involved in men's affairs.
After finishing speaking, she looked at Ning Yuejing who was following Yin Xiu, and couldn't help but ask Yin Xiu, "How about your apprentice go back with us and wait?"
When Yin Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Ning Yuejing.
At this time, Ning Yuejing took the initiative and said, "Master, I want to go with you..."
Since Xiaojing wants to follow, let's go together.
Yin Xiu didn't want to reject Xiao Jing's idea, so he responded: "Okay, then you can come with me."
After they parted ways, Ling Xueyan and her aunt naturally went back home. Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing followed Wu Mingyi to find the 'Sixth Uncle' he mentioned.
As for the other three men who were originally with Wu Mingyi, they were still at the resort and did not follow them back to the village.
"Uncle Six is the eldest in the village now. He is eighty-seven years old this year. He is the only one who knows the old things in the village best."
"There are two copies of the genealogy in the village. Except for one kept in the ancestral hall, the other is kept in the hands of the sixth uncle..."
On the way to the 'sixth uncle''s house, Wu Mingyi also told Yin Xiu something about the 'sixth uncle'.
Yin Xiu nodded understandingly. Eighty-seven years old is considered a long life for ordinary people.
After a while, Wu Mingyi took Yin Xiu to a small farmyard with red bricks and blue tiles.
There are dogs in the courtyard. Probably smelling the scent of strangers, before Yin Xiu and his party could reach the door, the yellow-and-white native dog rushed out and yelled "bark, woof" at Yin Xiu and others...
Yin Xiu didn't care.
Wu Mingyi was about to scold the local dog and chase it away.
At this time, it was Xiaopi who was annoyed by the warning "woof" sound. He pulled his head out of the backpack in front of Ning Yuejing and pointed at the barking dog standing at the door. He bared his teeth and growled.
"Ouch!"
Although Xiaopi's voice was not very loud. But it is very calm and vigorous, with a sense of majesty and domineering in it.
The native dog who heard Xiaopi's roar was frightened and immediately whimpered in fear. He glanced at Xiaopi with only one head exposed and grinned fiercely at it, and quickly peeed with his tail between his legs. Ran…
When Wu Mingyi saw this scene, he turned around in surprise and glanced at Xiaopi, whose head was sticking out of the backpack in front of Ning Yuejing. There was a look of surprise in his eyes.
Because of Yin Xiu's transfiguration technique, although Wu Mingyi originally saw Xiaopi running over and sitting on Luluo's mount Black Panther, Xiaopi did not show any magic after all, and he only regarded Xiaopi as an ordinary little boy. Just a dog.
But at this moment. He was somewhat surprised to see that Xiaopi, who was only slightly bigger than those teddy dogs, could scare the shit out of an adult dog with just a low growl.
Moreover, I heard Xiaopi’s cry just now. It doesn't look like a dog at all. On the contrary, it is a bit like the roar of ferocious beasts such as ligers, tigers and bears.
Although Luluo had asked Xiaopi if he was Pixiu before, at that time Wu Mingyi, Yunqing Laodao and others were still floating in the air with the bubbles spit out by Luluo. How could they hear what Luluo said
"Brother Yin, this puppy of yours seems to be very special. What breed is it?"
Wu Mingyi couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay. As for what kind it is, I'm not too sure..." Yin Xiu smiled and casually brushed it off.
Wu Mingyi saw that Yin Xiu didn't want to say more, so he stopped asking. He immediately took the initiative to change the conversation, "Brother Yin. Come with me. Usually the sixth uncle is at home."
Said. He walked towards the gate of the small courtyard.
Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing also followed suit.
After a while, several people walked into the yard, and Wu Mingyi shouted: "Sixth uncle. Sixth uncle, are you at home?"
Soon a very old voice came from the room, "Who is it?"
Immediately afterwards, an old man with a face full of wrinkles, slightly dark skin, and an old look walked out. However, looking at his steps, he is still very steady. It can be seen that his body and bones are still very good, and his spirit is also very good.
"Sixth uncle, it's me, Mingyi."
When Wu Mingyi saw the old man coming out, he quickly stepped forward and said.
When the old man saw it was Wu Mingyi, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, his eyes were dazzled together, and the wrinkles on his face formed straight lines.
"So it's Mingyi, come on, come in and sit down!"
Wu Mingyi is the 'richest man' in Shajing Village. He also built a leisure resort in the village with two big bosses. Not only did he make a lot of money, but he also boosted the economic consumption of the village. Every household in the whole village was more or less wealthy. Benefited.
So when he saw that Wu Mingyi was visiting, the old man seemed very happy and enthusiastic.
"Hey, thank you so much Uncle Six..."
Wu Mingyi responded politely. Then he invited Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing to go inside and sit together.
After Wu Mingyi led Yin Xiu and the two of them into the house, the sixth uncle was also looking at Yin Xiu and Ning Yuejing. Judging from his expression, he was probably guessing in his heart that Wu Mingyi had brought such two strangers to him. What are you doing at home
Fortunately, Wu Mingyi did not show off. After sitting down, he immediately said: "Uncle Sixth, I came to you today because I have something to trouble you with..."
"Oh? What's the matter, you, a big boss, actually want to come to me, an old man, for help?" The sixth uncle grinned in surprise when he heard this.
He had almost lost all his teeth, so when he grinned, he immediately revealed the few remaining big yellow teeth.
Wu Mingyi said: "Sixth uncle, this is brother Yin Xiuyin. He wants to come to you to ask about something. I'd better let him tell you in person."
While speaking, Wu Mingyi pointed at Yin Xiu who was sitting next to him.
When the sixth uncle heard this, he couldn't help but look at Yin Xiu in surprise and asked, "Young man, what do you want to ask me?"
"That's right. I'd like to find some information about a man named Wu Zhongkun in your village. I wonder if you know such a person? Or could I trouble you to check the genealogy of your village to see if he has any descendants? Still..."
Yin Xiu asked directly.
The sixth uncle's face showed surprise, "Wu Zhongkun?"
"I'm not too familiar with this name. What do you mean, he has passed away?" Uncle Six asked with a slight frown.
Yin Xiu replied: "I think he should have passed away. He was born at the beginning of the last century. He is already more than 110 years old..."
"A hundred and ten years old?"
When Uncle Six heard this, he couldn't help but exclaimed. He probably didn't expect that what Yin Xiu was looking for was information about such a deceased 'old man'.
"No wonder I didn't feel familiar when I first heard your name. In that case, he should be my uncle."
After saying that, Uncle Six stood up and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get the family tree from the village and look for it for you."
"Okay, that's troublesome." Yin Xiu responded politely.
The old man quickly walked to the room at the back of the hall. After about six or seven minutes, he came out with a yellowed old book in his hand.
"This is the family tree of our village. I'll look it up for you right now..."
The old man walked back to the chair and sat down, then placed the old genealogy on the coffee table on the side and started to rummage through it.
Yin Xiu waited patiently.
After about three or four minutes, the old man suddenly pointed to a place on the genealogy and said, "I found it. It's here. Come over and see if it's this name."
Upon hearing this, Yin Xiu quickly stood up and walked over.
Even Wu Mingyi couldn't help but walked over to see what was going on.
When Yin Xiu approached, the old man put the genealogy in his hand in front of Yin Xiu, let him see it, and said, "Look, see if this name is the Wu Zhongkun you mentioned. Is the spelling correct?"
Yin Xiu looked carefully and found that the name was correct. The year of birth recorded above is not different from what Yin Xiu knows. As for "sudden years", Yin Xiu didn't know about it.
"It should be him. The birth date and year recorded above are the same as what I know, and the name is also correct." Yin Xiudao. There was a hint of joy in his tone.
It's always good to find out some news about old friends. At least I can go and worship one or two.
"That's it… "
When the old man heard Yin Xiu's words, he couldn't help but smile on his old face.
For an elderly person like him, he is still very happy to be able to help others and show some of his own value.
"Hey, this is... Lin Sheng's name! Is this Wu Zhongkun Lin Sheng's grandfather?" At this time, Wu Mingyi, who had followed over, stared at the family tree for a while and suddenly shouted in surprise.
Hearing this, the old man quickly looked down and said, "It's really Lin Sheng's grandfather. So, Wu Zhongkun is named 'Uncle Tiger'?"
Hearing the old man's tone, he was obviously a little surprised.
It can be seen that he did not know the real name of the 'Uncle Tiger' he was talking about. This genealogy is kept in his hands, and he probably hasn't read it much. (To be continued.)
