Chen Hu looked at Qiantui, then at Wan Yucheng, and shook his head: "Who are you? I don't know you!"

Chitose stretched out his hand and raised the rattle in his hand.

"Chen Hu, is this yours?" Sui Sui asked.

When the little boy saw the rattle, he immediately showed a look of surprise: "Wow, it turned out that you picked it up!"

With that said, I'm going to grab it.

At this time, an old man with white hair and walking stick came out from the next room.

When he saw the rattle in Chitose's hand, he froze instantly.

A look of extreme fear flashed in the cloudy old eyes.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and get out! Get out!"

The old man yelled, and raised his crutch to blast Sui and Sui out.

Wan Yucheng quickly pulled Suisui aside and stood in front of her.

Seeing the old man's reaction, Chitose had a plan in his mind.

She nimbly dodged to the side, and shook the rattle in her hand again.

"Grandpa, do you know the origin of this rattle?" She asked with a smile.

The old man became furious instantly, his eyebrows and beard seemed to be trembling.

"I don't know!" he growled, "I don't know anything! Get out of here!"

Chitose's little face turned serious.

"Grandpa, if you don't tell Suisui the truth, someone will be killed by this thing!"

"Did you know that the little girl who picked it up is the same age as Sui Sui, and her life is in danger anytime now!"

After hearing Chitose's words, the white-haired old man seemed to be touched.

He didn't speak, just leaned on the crutch with both hands, panting heavily.

After a long time, the old man finally spoke again.

"Even if I tell you, what's the use? You're a little doll, what can you do?" His voice was hoarse.

Sui Sui laughed happily: "Grandpa, Sui Sui is no ordinary little doll!"

"As long as you know its origin, Sui Sui will naturally have a solution!"

The old man looked the little guy from head to toe again.

I found that this little doll was not only extremely beautiful, but also exuded a rare cleverness all over her body.

Definitely not an ordinary doll.

The old man thought for a while before saying, "Okay, I'll tell you."

"Come with me into the house!" he said, walking towards the house on crutches.

Wan Yucheng led Chitose into the house.

Both the woman and Chen Hu didn't know what happened, they were both stunned.

"Mom, what's the matter with grandpa?" Chen Hu asked.

The woman shook her head: "Who knows! As soon as your grandfather saw that rattle, he felt as if he was stimulated, and his whole body was abnormal!"

"Then I'll go in and listen to what they said?" Chen Hu said.

The woman quickly waved her hand: "Your grandfather has a bad temper, be careful he will give you a walking stick!"

Chen Hu shrank his neck in fright.

At this moment, there are only the old man, Wan Yucheng, and Chitose in the room.

The old man sat on the chair alone, took out a pipe and pot, and filled it with shredded tobacco.

Knocked on the sole of the shoe.

"Where did you two dolls come from?"

Chitose: "We are from Beijing!"

The old man nodded.

He looked at Chitose again: "You said, a little girl picked up... picked up this?"

He only glanced slightly at the rattle in Suisui's hand, as if seeing a ghost, his eyes were bounced back.

Sui Sui nodded: "Yeah! The dirty things inside have gotten into her body, and she is in danger at any time!"

The old man sighed deeply.

"Sin!" He patted the wooden table next to him with his hand.

"Grandpa, tell Sui Sui the origin of this thing, Sui Sui has a way to get rid of it completely!"

The old man frowned slightly and looked at Suisui: "You, you really have this ability?"

Chitose raised the corner of his mouth triumphantly: "That must be dripped!"

The old man was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"it is good!"

Then, he told the origin of the rattle exactly.

In the 30s, the army was in turmoil, and the common people were in dire straits.

At that time, Central China suffered a rare severe drought.

There has been no rain for three years, and no crops have been harvested.

The severe drought caused the great famine, and the wave of fleeing famine swept across.Along the road, starvation was everywhere, and dead bodies could be seen everywhere.

The situation in Xiatang Village is not much better.

At that time, almost all the people in Xiatang Village were surnamed Chen and belonged to the same family.

Chen Xingfa, who was the head of the village and patriarch at the time, took a strong labor force to the back mountain to dig grass roots, peel off tree bark, and even pick up mule dung. He basically ate up everything that could be eaten.

People in the village starve to death every day, and those who are alive are all skinny.

Seeing the people of his clan starve to death, fleeing from famine, Chen Xingfa was very anxious.

On this day, a fleeing team came from outside, and stumbled into Xiatang Village.

Chen Xingfa wanted to drive them away, but he couldn't bear to see that all those who came were old, young, women and children, and they were all dying of hunger.

I thought to myself, even if there is no food, it would be better to let them have a place to rest, so I didn't drive them away.

However, the world is unpredictable, who would have thought that he would be soft-hearted for a moment, but made a big mistake.

As the village head, Chen Xingfa agreed to take in these fleeing famines and arranged them to rest in the abandoned ancestral hall at the east end of the village.

Unexpectedly, early the next morning, a woman fleeing famine came to Chen Xingfa's house crying.

Said that his son who had just turned one year old was missing, and asked him to help him find it.

Chen Xingfa felt strange after hearing this.

A one-year-old child can't even walk well, so how could he run out by himself?

Could it be that he was abducted?

However, the villagers in Xiatang Village are simple in nature, and there has never been any child abduction before.

After comforting the woman, he mobilized the villagers to help find the whereabouts of the child.

At noon, an elder in the family, who was Chen Xingfa's uncle in terms of seniority, came to his house.

As soon as Uncle Chen entered the room, he closed the door.

Holding Chen Xingfa's hand, weeping.

Chen Xingfa was puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, and hurriedly asked the reason.

Uncle Chen sobbed and said intermittently: "Xingfa, lost that child... that child... Alas! It's all done by my unfilial son!"

It turned out that early this morning, Uncle Chen's son excitedly said that he had hunted wild rabbits on the back mountain, and personally cooked a pot of delicious meat for his parents.

Uncle Chen and his wife were so hungry that they didn't even have the strength to speak. When they saw the stewed meat, they ate it all together with their son.

Hearing old man Chen say this, Chen Xingfa faintly felt something was wrong.

After such a long drought, there is no grass growing on the mountain.The bark has been gnawed away by people, so where will there be hares!

An inexplicable uneasiness and panic rose in his heart.

Uncle Chen went on to say that after eating a pot of meat, the old couple finally recovered.

Uncle Chen walked out of the house to bask in the sun, when he happened to see his son burying something in his yard with a shovel.

He walked over curiously, but what he saw was a pile of children's bones!

The old man was so frightened that his legs gave way and he fell to the ground.
