Pension Strategy
Chapter 31: old woman 31
Go back in time to the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Appointed to Zhang Youfu and several brothers to prepare things for the guards together.
Everyone in the village is very busy, even a few long-tongued women who usually like to sit under a tree and quarrel are rare.
The exception is that Zhang Tieshan was restless early in the morning and wanted to speak in front of Ning Qiu, but as a hunter in the village, he was most familiar with the dangers and safety in the forest. One of them, so he has been dragged into the team and arranged up the mountain, and he has never found a chance to start.
Ning Qiu already knew what was going on, and he didn't take it to heart, it was just a grasshopper who couldn't afford to jump.
Everyone was lined up, Ning Qiu and Liu Zhu walked into the ancestral hall alone, and locked the door from the inside.
Liu Zhu put away a long list of keys and looked puzzled, "Sister, what did you ask me to come here alone for?"
In the early morning of this morning, my old sister whispered in his ear that she would come over alone later, he originally thought it was a mistake, after all, in the ancestral hall, in addition to food, the ancestors The spirit cards, and some clan rules and genealogy, etc., are not worth coming.
"Is there a secret room in our ancestral hall?" Ning Qiu took the lead, and when she got straight to the point, Liu Zhu was stunned, stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a while .
Of course, Ning Qiu is only stating a fact, and does not need Liu Zhu's affirmation, she continued: "If I am not wrong, the switch of the secret room is on a certain spirit card."
There are still some aftertastes after burning candles in the inner hall.
Ning Qiu raised her head, looked at the rows of spiritual tablets, and finally fixed her eyes on a tablet named Zhang Yunzong, the village chief thirty years ago and the prince who was exiled to his land. In the years when he joined forces with the Turks to rebel, he was the incumbent head of the village when he was almost wiped out. After his death, the village head gave the position to Liu Zhu's father, who was also a villager who survived until Liu Zhu's death twenty years ago. Dad died suddenly, and this was passed on to Liu Zhu.
Why is an ordinary village targeted by so many people? This is a puzzling thing, what she thought was a rural pension, inexplicably turned into a rural battle.
Ning Qiu didn't understand it at first, but when they knew that Zhang Youcai and Liu Dashan could not control the temptation, they were deliberately pulled into the casino to lose money and borrow money, and then Gu San came to ask for debts , seeing the tracer powder left on his body and the bugs he brought in that were controlled to investigate, she knew that this was a set of chain tricks that had been dug a long time ago.
What happened later, Ning Qiu has been able to determine that there must be some important treasure in this village, and it is not attracted by a wave of people, so he will not move, use various methods to test carefully, Poison is the simplest and most rude method. As long as everyone here is killed, things can be easily obtained, but I didn't expect to be cut off by her.
It was small, but when she was offering the incense, Ning Qiu noticed a difference in her eyes. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that there were traces of dust on the place where Zhang Yunzong's spirit card was pressed.
The time to clean up the spirit tablets is set on the 15th of each month, and when wiping, the tablet will definitely be picked up to wipe the dust below. There are regulations, which are all done by the village chiefs of the past dynasties. Yes, then why Zhang Yunzong's spiritual card is different, Liu Zhu must know.
Ning Qiu's decisive words left Liu Zhu speechless. He kept it a secret for decades. He subconsciously wanted to deny it, but he remembered that the old lady had called him in, and he knew it very well. , even if you deny it, it's useless.
Liu Zhu sighed, he turned to the door, stuck his head out to look left and right, and then closed the door of the inner hall, "You are right, there is indeed a secret room here, and The organ is on the spirit card."
Once the secret is revealed, they will suffer the disaster again.
Now that he was discovered like this, Liu Zhu felt a sense of unease that he was stripped, but also a little relaxed. The secret was pressed for a long time, and his heart would be burdened. Every time he sleeps at night, he is frightened. , I was afraid that I was dreaming, so I said it.
Ning Qiu turned to look at him, "Have you seen the secret inside?"
"No, before my father died, he asked me to swear that he would never open the secret room. He said that it is good to know the secret, but if you know too much the truth, you will only die faster." Liu Zhu shook his head. Of course he was curious about whether to open it up to find out, but every time he thought of this, he remembered his father's taboo expression before he died, and he never opened it. Until now, the loess is buried in his neck. age.
Sometimes he also admires himself quite a bit. He can keep a secret for so long without letting anyone find out. Sanwan Village is an ordinary village, no different.
"Your father is right, the truth is often associated with danger. But if the secret is known to a second person, there will never be a time of peace."
Ning Qiu squinted his eyes, his voice a little cold.
"What is going on in the village is just the beginning. As long as this secret is still here, the trouble will not end."
"How come! This secret has been kept for three generations and has never been mentioned to anyone. Only when one dies will the next one be informed." Liu Zhu was shocked. If the secret room has not been opened, how can it be a disaster.
Ning Qiu said indifferently, "Because creating a secret can never be accomplished by a single person."
Liu Zhu pulled his shoulders and grew old again. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he let out a long sigh, agreeing with Ning Qiu's words.
Three generations of them are tight-lipped, but what happened to Zhang Yunzong during the war in the village 30 years ago, why did he send someone to build a secret room in the village, and then set up an organ to explain to future generations to protect this Secret, they have been doing it without knowing the reason, but those who knew Zhang Yunzong back then might know about it, and that's how it came to be.
"Sister means..." Liu Zhu already had a hunch, so when he heard Ning Qiu say to open it, he nodded calmly, took the long bench beside him, Stepping on it, I touched the third row from the bottom up, the third Yunzong spirit card from the left, and then rotated it slightly. Finally, I saw the whole shelf of the spirit card clucked away, revealing a dim hole in the corner.
Liu Zhu opened it for the first time, saying that he was not nervous would be a lie. , Liu Zhu quickly got off the bench, "Wait for me."
He also took the lanterns piled up in the corner, picked up the lampshade, lit the candle, and covered it again, and then walked in behind Ning Qiu.
The lantern was taken back.
Comfortable.
Walking down the two slate stairs, Liu Zhu was startled, "Sister, what about that door."
He looked back, the door was still open, it would be bad if someone came in and saw it at this time.
Ning Qiu raised the lantern and took a picture on the walls on both sides, and saw a lamp cup that would not light beside a stairway, "Go and rotate that lamp cup."
A demon that can devour you in one bite looks very infiltrating.
But they all came in, and it's not good to say it now, and Ning Qiu has already walked step by step calmly, Liu Zhu can only bite the bullet and follow behind.
It took about fifteen steps to walk, and they reached the last step. There are three forks in front of them, each of which is exactly the same, and they don't know how to choose.
"Sister, what should I do?" Liu Zhu had a headache, and he had already retreated.
In this dark and depressing underground room, over time, it is easy for people to slowly raise a sense of suffocating crisis.
Even if he is old, he is mentally prepared for death when the time comes. He should be very calm, but in the face of unknown dangers, people's subconscious fear is regardless of age.
