Mortal bone

Fairy Lingyue at the side glanced at the tombstone, and saw that on the tombstone carved from the leg bones of a black monster, "Xu Zhi'an's Tomb" was very neatly written, and the inscription read "Eldest grandson, Xu Taiping stands" .

Regarding Xu Taiping's grandfather Xu Zhi'an, Fairy Lingyue tried to contact him several times when she briefly woke up in the ground fruit, but every time she was about to talk to him, she was forced to fall into a deep sleep due to lack of spirit energy.

So she only knows that this is an old farmer who likes to be well-mannered, honest, and often goes to the fields with his little grandson on his back.

"Crash..."

At this time, Xu Taiping took out a jug of ordinary spirits, sprinkled half of the jug on the mud in front of the tombstone, and then drank the remaining half of the jug "Gulong Gulong".

"call……"

After letting out a long breath, Xu Taiping solemnly knelt in front of the tomb and kowtowed three times, then looked at the tombstone in front of him with a grin and said:

"Grandpa, grandson is gone, grandson will definitely see all the mountain scenery you like for you!"

"If one day, my grandson sees all the scenery on this mountain, I can go on a tour that day, and my grandson will come to see you again!"

Hearing Xu Taiping's promise to his grandfather Xu Zhi'an, a gentle smile appeared on Fairy Lingyue's face inexplicably.

"Taiping, or that Taiping."

Fairy Lingyue smiled and said secretly in her heart.

"Let's go, Sister Lingyue, go to the imperial city, don't let senior brothers and sisters wait for a long time."

At this time, Xu Taiping, who had already stood up, called Fairy Lingyue.

"Let's go."

Fairy Lingyue nodded first, then smiled helplessly and said:

"It seems that we were really tricked by Lian Tong again."

"and many more!"

Just when Fairy Lingyue returned to the gourd and Xu Taiping was about to leave Yufeng, a somewhat immature boy's voice suddenly sounded behind them.

"Who?"

After hearing this sound, Xu Taiping was startled, and immediately took out the cloud umbrella and opened it with a "bang".

"Snapped!"

At this moment, in the open space behind Xu Taiping's cemetery, a clod the size of a manhole cover was suddenly pushed away, revealing a dark hole.

Seeing the suddenly pushed open hole, Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue were both shocked.

Because they had just repeatedly used telepathy, none of them had noticed the existence of this cave.

Just as they were waiting in full force, a small head wearing a bamboo bamboo hat suddenly poked out from the hole like a groundhog.

It was a little boy about ten years old.

But before Fairy Lingyue and Xu Taiping saw the little boy's appearance clearly, he retracted the head wearing the bamboo hat again.

When the little boy retracted his head into the hole, Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue couldn't sense his breath again.

"The bamboo hat on this little doll's head seems to be a treasure that can block the breath."

Fairy Lingyue suddenly said with certainty.

Xu Taiping nodded.

He also felt that the bamboo hat was a bit weird.

"Little guy, are you from Qingniu Village?"

Xu Taiping tentatively asked the little boy.

"Your name is Xu Taiping, right?"

The little boy didn't answer, but asked Xu Taiping back.

"How do you know my name?"

Xu Taiping was a little surprised.

"You... you just need to answer me... yes or no!"

The little boy said in a nervous tone.

He still refused to stick his head out of the hole as he spoke.

"I'm."

Xu Taiping nodded.

"You grew up in Qingniu Village, and then you were taken to the mountain by a fairy to practice Xu Taiping?"

the little boy asked again.

"Yes."

Xu Taiping nodded again.

After hearing Xu Taiping's answer, the little boy suddenly stuck his head out of the hole, then grabbed the edge of the bamboo hat with both hands, stared at Xu Taiping very vigilantly and said:

"Since you are that Xu Taiping, then you are sure that you were almost sold to be a school boy when you were picked up by the immortal?"

"I remember."

Xu Taiping nodded, carefully scrutinized the little boy's features, and found that he was somewhat similar to his cousin, the son of Uncle Er Niu.

"Could it be..."

A guess gradually emerged in his mind.

"Then do you still remember how much money your second uncle and aunt sold you for?"

At this moment, the little boy asked Xu Taiping again.

Hearing this, Xu Taiping didn't answer, but just stared at the little boy without blinking.

"You... tell me quickly... how many taels of silver?"

the little boy asked timidly.

"30 taels."

Xu Taiping looked at the little boy with a smile.

Hearing this, the eyes of the little boy in the bamboo hat suddenly lit up, then he turned over and crawled out of the hole, weeping with joy, he ran to Xu Taiping and said:

"Great Uncle, I finally see you!"

But just when the little boy was about to pounce on Xu Taiping, Xu Taiping picked him up with one hand.

"Are you the descendant of my uncle Xu Erniu?"

Xu Taiping asked with a smile while holding the little boy.

"Hmm, um, um, that's my grandfather!..."

The little boy nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Your grandfather and the others..."

After Xu Taiping said this, he realized that the question was a bit stupid, after all, mortals rarely live to such an advanced age.

"Great uncle, my grandfather passed away before I was born, and my grandfather passed away when I was six years old. Daddy... Daddy..."

The little boy seemed to have guessed what Xu Taiping wanted to ask, but before he finished speaking, his expression darkened.

"Your father died in this fire, right?"

Xu Taiping gently put the little boy down.

"right……"

The little boy nodded instinctively, then shook his head vigorously and said:

"No, no, my father and I both escaped the fire. After the fire was extinguished, my father found a villain who set the fire, so he placed me here, and he went after the villain himself. As a result, he never came back…”

"That means your father is probably still alive?" Xu Taiping frowned.

"My father must... must have been killed."

The little boy's eyes became hot, and then he took out a longevity lock from his arms and handed it to Xu Taiping, saying:

"Before my father left, he told me that if the lock is broken, it means that he has been killed, and I must not get out of the cave."

When he said this, he suddenly raised his head to look at Xu Taiping and said:

"Unless I meet you, Grand Uncle."

"Don't worry, I'll know right away if your father was killed or not." Xu Taiping comforted the little boy, and then gently placed the hand engraved with the lotus pupil curse mark on the little boy's forehead.

Immediately, a picture entered his mind.

No matter whether this little boy is the descendant of his second uncle or not, Xu Taiping has to find out what happened to him.
