Views:

Liu Xun and Li Mengyao walked side by side in front, while Liu Zhang and Dapeng followed behind. Dapeng was carrying a bamboo basket full of paper money, and he was scattering the paper money as he walked.

"That girl who looks like a fairy, could she be Liu Xun's wife?" When Li Mengyao was standing here just now, the villagers were reluctant to speak. After all, they didn't know Li Mengyao's identity and were afraid of saying something wrong and making her unhappy.

"It looks like he should be, otherwise they wouldn't be walking together! And worshiping is a very formal thing. Liu Xun and Liu Zhang are both orphans without parents. Old Liu is gone, and Liu Xun is the elder brother, and the eldest brother is like a father! So it's right for him to walk in front, and this woman walking in front with Liu Xun must be his wife." An older man in the village explained to the villagers.

"The girls in this city are so pretty. Look at their small waists, so sexy. Liu Xun is so lucky." A burly man in his forties said with a smile, looking at Li Mengyao's back.

"Shuiling, you big-headed ghost, what are you looking at? No matter how smart you are, you can only look." As soon as the big man finished speaking, his wife slapped him on the back of the head.

"You stinky bitch, look at yourself, your waist is as big and thick as a bucket, your thighs are like a dinosaur..." The big man felt a little embarrassed to be guarding so many people, so he shouted loudly.

"What's wrong with my fat waist? I was the most beautiful girl in the village. Who is so shameless to pester me every day?" The big man's wife was unhappy and started to quarrel with him.

"Alright, alright, wife, let's talk about it at home. There are too many people here, please give me some face..." The big man blushed and leaned over to his wife's ear and whispered.

"Haha, Erniuzi is depressed again..." The surrounding villagers laughed in unison, and the big man followed his wife back home...

In the green onion field two miles away from the village, a grave stands out. In front of the grave is a stone tombstone with five simple characters on it: Tomb of Liu Yice...

Liu Yice was the old man's name. The earthen grave was already covered with green grass. Liu Xun and Liu Zhang came to the grave and knelt down. Li Mengyao walked to Liu Xun's side and also knelt on the ground. Dapeng did not come forward but knelt down behind Liu Zhang.

Just when Liu Xun and the other three knelt down, a horse neighing was heard from behind, and a carriage stopped in front of the onion field.

Dapeng stood up and took the bayonet from his sleeve in his hand. In this day and age, people still used horse-drawn carriages, which would make anyone who saw it confused.

"Dapeng, step back." Liu Zhang glanced at the carriage, his face changed slightly, and then he shouted in a low voice to Dapeng.

Upon hearing this, Dapeng put away his bayonet and continued to kneel on the ground. Liu Xun just stared at the tombstone numbly. He never looked back even when the carriage appeared.

Finally, the person on the carriage got off. It was an old man with white hair. He was holding a bottle of wine with three big characters on it: Erguotou...

The old man walked to the grave, sighed softly, opened the lid of the wine, and sprinkled it on the grave. When he was done, he said softly: "You old man, you left as soon as you said you would. I know you like to drink Erguotou."

At this point, the old man lifted the bottle and said with a smile: "Look, it's from Niulanshan! It was produced in 1991, and it's hard to buy now! Do you know that I have a bottle hidden, and you pretended to be dead to trick me into giving you this bottle of wine?"

The old man laughed loudly, grabbed the paper money in the bamboo cage underground, and threw it into the air, saying loudly: "Just go with peace of mind. Look at your two grandsons and granddaughters-in-law in front of you. Are they very happy down there? This is how you will be in your life, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart! I'm afraid they are all very happy down there after seeing this scene, right?"

The old man said this, looking at the green onion field, his eyes fixed on a stone brick at the edge of the green onion field, sighed, and then said: "I know the third brother has been here and set up the Bagua formation for you. Don't worry! What you are worried about will not happen. Liu Xun is back now, and you have no regrets. It's time to rest in peace!"

At this point, the old man's eyes sparkled, and he clapped his hand towards the tombstone and shouted: "Liu Xun, Liu Zhang! Kowtow to your grandfather and let him go in peace."

After the old man finished speaking, Liu Xun and Liu Zhang kowtowed three times to the ground, then slowly stood up and turned to look at the old man.

"Xiao Xun, come with me." The old man looked at Liu Xun and looked him over carefully, but a hint of worry emerged in his eyes.

"Second Grandfather..." Liu Xun followed the old man's footsteps and stopped when they reached the end of the green onion field. The old man was Liu Xun and Liu Zhang's second grandfather, who lived at the foot of Thousand Buddha Mountain.

Speaking of this, we have to mention that Liu Xun and Liu Zhang were raised by Liu Yice, so old man Liu Yice is their grandfather. When they were young, their second grandfather often came to the village, so Liu Xun also had a deep impression of his second grandfather.

The most mysterious one is the Third Grandfather. As the saying goes, you can only see the head of a dragon but not its tail! Since Liu Xun was old enough to understand things, he has only seen the Third Grandfather once when he was a child.

"Second Grandfather, tell me who killed Grandpa? Liu Zhang, you were afraid that he would act rashly and get into trouble, but now I'm back. You watched me grow up since I was a child. Don't you still believe me?"

When they arrived at the end of the field, Liu Xun started to speak, but when he finished speaking, the old man snorted coldly, looked at Liu Xun fiercely, and said: "I wanted to tell you, but you are not as good as you were five years ago! Not as good as Liu Zhang, at least Liu Zhang knows how to endure, what about you? Your eyes are full of murderous intent now, are you afraid that others don't know the hatred in your heart?"

"Second Grandfather, I..." Liu Xun clenched his fists. How could he not have hatred? Now he wanted to find that man immediately and cut him into pieces.

The old man looked at Liu Xun with a helpless look in his eyes. He sighed and said, "Okay, I won't tell you who that person is, at least not now! If you want to know who that person is, wait until you can stand on your own and then ask me."

"Be independent..." Liu Xun knew his second grandfather's temper. Once he made a decision, he would never change it even if he died.

Since he knew that there was no hope at the moment, Liu Xun no longer forced himself. After all, this matter could not be rushed. Second Grandfather was doing this for his own good. Thinking of this, Liu Xun temporarily suppressed the hatred in his heart and asked softly: "Second Grandfather, weren't you at the foot of Qianfo Mountain? Why are you here?"

Is it a coincidence? But this is too much of a coincidence. Liu Xun never believed in coincidences. Moreover, when the old man got off the carriage, he saw Liu Xun and Liu Zhang, and he was not surprised at all, so this is not a coincidence at all. (To be continued)
