I miss you

Chapter 46 Xu Jinghuo

For the sudden fire, Mr. Xu also expressed his great apology. After meeting Zhou Jiayu, he apologized again and again, saying that he was a little careless after all. He didn't expect that person to be so courageous and dare to be here. Zhou Jiayu made a move.

Zhou Jiayu graciously said it was nothing, just curious if their house and those paper figurines could really touch fire?

Elder Xu said with a smile, "This paper figurine is made of a special material. Generally, fire is incombustible. Only the fire of the sun can make it burn."

Zhou Jiayu remembered the lighter that Lin Zhushui had left for him, and it should be the flame of the Sun.

Elder Xu said again: "The one who attacked you is actually a member of our Xu clan..." When he said this, his eyes were full of pain, "Our Xu family has rules since ancient times. , this rule has lasted for hundreds of years, and it is also the foundation of our Xu family's inheritance."

Zhou Jiayu said: "Then what's his situation?"

Xu Laodao: "He is extremely talented, but his ideas have diverged from ours." He told a story intermittently. The content of the story is a bit old-fashioned. .In the end, he violated the rules of the tribe and was expelled from Sheshan.

The story was very simple, but Zhou Jiayu could hear the regret in Old Xu's tone.

Elder Xu said that before the man went down the mountain, he tried to attack the most important sacred object in their clan, but luckily he was stopped in time.But he didn't expect that he actually set his sights on Zhou Jiayu, Lin Zhushui's disciple, and repeatedly attacked him.Although they were unsuccessful, seeing Lin Zhushui's reaction, he was clearly irritated.

"Let's go to the cemetery at night." Mr. Xu said, "If you can get the recognition of your ancestors, then he won't be able to touch you in the future."

When Mr. Xu said these words, Lin Zhushui remained silent.After Xu Lao finished speaking, he suddenly waved to Zhou Jiayu and said, "Come here."

Zhou Jiayu approached Lin Zhushui ignorantly.

Lin Zhushui didn't speak, bit his index finger, and after the blood overflowed, he handed the finger to Zhou Jiayu: "Hold it, suck the blood off it."

Zhou Jiayu was stunned for a moment, then said in a daze, "Sir, this is..."

Lin Zhushui said: "That place is very cloudy, you will be affected if you go there, drink some of my blood."

Zhou Jiayu wanted to say something more, but Lin Zhushui urged, "Hurry up."

So Zhou Jiayu could only bite the bullet and hold Lin Zhushui's index finger, and gently licked Lin Zhushui's injured wound with his tongue.Although Zhou Jiayu had always felt that Lin Zhushui's fingers were icy when he got the tattoo before, but now it was only a few drops of blood, and Zhou Jiayu felt as if he had swallowed a huge stream of heat. The throat slid down to the stomach, dispelling the cold inside him.Zhou Jiayu's face was red, and his forehead even started to sweat slightly.

After the blood was sucked by Zhou Jiayu, Lin Zhushui naturally took his fingers out of Zhou Jiayu's mouth.Picking up the tissue prepared next to him, he wiped the wound on his hand and some kind of transparent liquid.

Zhou Jiayu didn't know whether he was really hot or embarrassed, his whole face was flushed, his eyes quietly glanced at Lin Zhushui's fingers, and he silently lowered his head.

Lin Zhushui said: "How do you feel?"

Zhou Jiayu said, "It's...very hot." He suddenly remembered something, and said, "Sir, did you add your blood to the water you gave me to drink on the train?"

Lin Zhushui said, "Yes."

Zhou Jiayu said: "Ah...then thank you sir."

Lin Zhushui's tone was light: "What can I thank you for?"

Mr. Xu watched the interaction between the two, smiled very kindly, and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Lin to have such a side. It really is the deep love between the master and the apprentice, and the love between the master and the apprentice."

Lin Zhushui didn't answer, Zhou Jiayu smiled a little embarrassedly.

The departure time is set at around [-]:[-] pm. It is said that the cemetery is very special and can only be entered at night.

Zhou Jiayu made some dinner casually, and the four of them ate together.

Since these paper figurines stopped hiding, they began to jump around. When they ate, there was one beside them. Judging from their hairstyle, it should be a boy. It kept opening its mouth to the bone stick held in Shen Yiqiong's hand. Slobber.

In fact, Zhou Jiayu really admired these paper figurines. Even though their facial features were drawn in stick figures, they moved extremely vividly, with the charm of a real person.

Shen Yiqiong was a little uncomfortable being stared at, and said to it: "Can you still eat meat?"

The paper man actually nodded.

So Shen Yiqiong hesitated for a while, and handed a piece of meat shaved from the big bone stick to it. The paper figurine happily picked it up and stuffed it into its mouth, eating happily.

Shen Yiqiong looked at him with a thoughtful expression.

Zhou Jiayu looked at his expression and said, "What are you thinking?"

Shen Yiqiong said: "You said the paper figurines seem pretty cute too. Can our family raise one? It will cover all the laundry and sweeping in the future..."

He had just finished saying this, but the paper figurine seemed to understand, glared at Shen Yiqiong with those flat eyes, stood up and ran away.Shen Yiqiong showed embarrassment: "Wow, can you understand this too? If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have said it in front of it."

Zhou Jiayu couldn't help laughing.

After dinner, Lin Zhushui planned to set off.

If Zhou Jiayu followed other people, Shen Yiqiong would have to tell him to be careful, but at this time Zhou Jiayu was following Lin Zhushui, so not only was Shen Yiqiong not worried, but he even said with a little jealousy, come back early Ah, I will miss you.

Zhou Jiayu said contemptuously, "Do you miss me or Mr.?"

Shen Yiqiong said, "Can't you think about everything?"

Zhou Jiayu said, "Can you stop staring at me when you say that?"

Shen Yiqiong snorted, and said aggrievedly that he was going back to eat sweet potatoes instead of playing with Zhou Jiayu.Zhou Jiayu thought to himself that Shen Yiqiong's mental age was impossible, fourteen would be pretty good.

Lin Zhushui was still waiting outside the door, Zhou Jiayu hurried out to meet him.

The place they were going to seemed to be quite far from the village, and it was said that it would take one night to go back and forth.Originally, Zhou Jiayu was thinking that walking in the snow at night might be troublesome, but he didn't expect to see four or five paper figurines pulling a sleigh cart at the entrance of the village.

Zhou Jiayu: "..." Damn it, there is such an operation?

"Come up, come up." Elder Xu sat in the front driving seat, smiling kindly, "It's coming soon, hold on tight when the time comes."

Zhou Jiayu nodded, and Lin Zhushui and Lin Zhushui were done.When he first got on the sleigh, Zhou Jiayu thought that no matter how fast the sleigh would go, he didn't know it was actually on the road.

The paper figurine was wearing special snow shoes, its running speed was no worse than that of a sled dog, and it could handle some troublesome mountain terrains.

Zhou Jiayu felt that the whole person was going to be blown into a fool by the wind, no wonder Mr. Xu told him to remember to wear a hat when he went out. Zhou Jiayu thought he was afraid of being cold at the time, but now he thought it was simply because he was afraid that his head would be frozen off Alright.

Zhou Jiayu fluttered in the wind, watching the changing scenery around him.There was no snow, and the moonlight sprinkled on the ground, casting a bright light.Lin Zhushui sat beside him, but the wind around him seemed to be separated by something invisible, and even the trembling of his hair was not obvious.

Zhou Jiayu suddenly felt that this scene was actually quite romantic. He and Lin Zhushui were gliding through the jungle in the middle of the night on a sled.The moonlight is beautiful, and everything around is very quiet. Of course, it would be more perfect if his head is not so cold that it seems to be about to fall off.

Lin Zhushui's voice was still calm, he said, "Zhou Jiayu, are you cold?"

Zhou Jiayu sniffed, and said, "I...not...cold..." He regretted saying this, his voice trembled like an electric shock, and he couldn't believe that he wasn't cold when he said it.

Lin Zhushui sighed softly, feeling helpless, he said: "If you are cold, sit by my side."

Zhou Jiayu was a little torn in his heart, and before he could respond, Elder Xu said, "There's still a long way to go, young people, don't push it hard!"

These words made Zhou Jiayu give up his resistance, and sat down beside Lin Zhushui honestly.

Obviously this movement was not superfluous, because Zhou Jiayu obviously felt that the surroundings were not so cold when he got closer.

Lin Zhushui was like a big fireball, trying to control the temperature he radiated, but as long as he got a little closer, he could clearly feel the burning energy in his body.

"Is it still cold?" Lin Zhushui asked.

Zhou Jiayu shook his head honestly, and said, "It's not cold anymore." He felt that after sitting next to Lin Zhushui, the wind seemed to be cut off, without the head-on wind, the whole head would be blown. The feeling of freezing is finally much better.

The sleigh drove all the way forward, along the winding mountain road, and drove into the bushes.

Although the terrain became more and more troublesome, the speed of the paper figurine was not affected at all. Zhou Jiayu felt that it must be at least eighty yards.

Mr. Xu was not joking when he said that the road was very long. It was twelve o'clock in the morning, and they arrived at their destination after a four-hour journey.

The destination is a cave hidden in the bushes.The cave is very low, and the side is covered with snow-covered bushes. Even if you get to the door, you won't find a hole if you don't look carefully.

Elder Xu bent over and entered the cave, while Lin Zhushui walked last, sandwiching Zhou Jiayu to prevent accidents.

In the small cave, one could only bend over to pass through. After walking tens of meters inside, the rock wall above disappeared, and a huge iron door appeared in front of Zhou Jiayu.The iron gate looks like it has been around for a while, and it is five or six meters high. If it is purely human, it will definitely not be able to push it.

Mr. Xu still had a cheerful look, and with a wave of his hand, the paper figurines who were originally dragging the sled slowly came to the front, grabbed the doorknob and began to exert force.The strength of these paper figurines is really great. The heavy iron door was pulled out by them in less than a moment to allow people to pass through.

"Let's go." Elder Xu beckoned.

Zhou Jiayu followed behind him, but seeing that the paper figurines had no intention of coming in, he said, "Aren't these little paper figurines coming in?"

Old Xu said: "Well, they can't come in."

Zhou Jiayu groaned, and watched the paper people slam the door shut.

Behind the door, there is a huge cave. On the rock walls around the cave, there are some torches. These torches were burning when they came in. It seems that they should have been kept in the cave all year round.

Mr. Xu walked ahead familiarly, leading the way for Lin Zhushui and the others.

The road in this cave is a bit complicated, with forks everywhere, Zhou Jiayu vaguely heard some small noises from the fork that they didn't take, and he said suspiciously: "Mr. something?"

Old Xu smiled and said: "Some, some, this can be regarded as a protective measure, if you go wrong, you won't be able to get out."

Zhou Jiayu: "..." He silently took a few steps forward.

Originally, Zhou Jiayu thought that there should be many paper figures in this cemetery, but he didn't expect to see not a single paper figure along the way.However, according to what Elder Xu said before, it should be that the cave has some restrictions on the paper figurines.

After walking for about ten minutes, after bypassing a huge rock, an astonishing scene came into Zhou Jiayu's eyes.

Seeing such a spectacle, Zhou Jiayu couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's so beautiful——"

Old Xu smiled: "Yes, it's very beautiful."

In the deepest part of the cave, there is a huge pothole, and in the pothole, stands a huge tree.This tree is different from ordinary trees, the ice is the branches, the snow is the green leaves, and the branches and leaves are stretched and hidden in the dark depths.The faint light of the torch shone on it, and even a faint reflection could be seen.

It's so beautiful, Zhou Jiayu sighed, the tree extended to the top of the rock, the trunk was so thick that Zhou Jiayu couldn't even see the whole picture clearly.The roots of this snow-covered tree cannot be seen from below, and the crown cannot be seen from above, but as far as Zhou Jiayu can see, it is already 200 meters long, but I don't know how tall it is.

At first it was the tree itself that attracted Zhou Jiayu's attention, but he soon noticed that there were other things hanging from the tree.

It seemed to be paper figurines covered in snow and frost, their bodies were wrapped with red threads, and they were hung on the branches of the ice and snow trees one by one.

Zhou Jiayu thought of the ancestor that Xu Lao said, could it be the big snow and ice tree in front of him?

Does this tree grow naturally?Or artificial?Zhou Jiayu was amazed, and his mind was filled with messy questions.

On both sides of the cliff near the tree trunk, there are countless coffins. These coffins should also be made of paper, and the number is simply innumerable. If you want to come to this area, it is the cemetery that Xu Lao said.Born in a tree, died in a tree, no wonder this is Xu's holy place.

Elder Xu said to Zhou Jiayu, "Go over there and put your hands on the tree trunk."

Zhou Jiayu glanced at Lin Zhushui, then called out to Mr.

Lin Zhushui reached out and gently pressed his shoulder, and said lightly: "Go, I'll watch from the side, don't be afraid."

After hearing Lin Zhushui's words, Zhou Jiayu's flustered mood calmed down strangely. He took a deep breath, and slowly approached the bottomless pit, and then put his palm on the snow-like tree trunk. .

Almost as soon as the palms of his hands were attached, Zhou Jiayu felt a chill rushing down his arms towards his body. He opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound. He saw that the surrounding branches and leaves seemed to have Like life, it gathered towards him, his body was lifted by the branches and sent to a high place.

The branches were stroking his body slowly, like a mother examining a newborn baby, earnestly, meticulously, and with the gentleness of a mother.

The coldness in his body began to dissipate gradually, Zhou Jiayu heard a voice, that voice was very old and indistinct, a bit like humming some song, lingering around his ears.

Drowsiness suddenly flooded in, and Zhou Jiayu's consciousness began to separate from his body. He had a comfortable feeling of returning to his mother's womb, and he didn't even want to think about what was going on.

However, at this moment, this comfortable feeling was interrupted.

Zhou Jiayu heard Lin Zhushui's voice: "Zhou Jiayu—wake up!"

The sound was like thunder, causing Zhou Jiayu to tremble all over. He woke up from the abnormal feeling in an instant. He opened his eyes, only to find that his body was almost touching the tree trunk. Step, under your feet is the black pothole with no end in sight.

Lin Zhushui stood behind him, grabbed his arm forcefully, and called his name: "Zhou Jiayu!"

Zhou Jiayu suddenly came back to his senses, his face was a little dull: "I, what's wrong with me?"

Elder Xu showed some embarrassment beside him, and said, "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry, I didn't expect Zu Shu to like him so much."

Zhou Jiayu was in a daze until Lin Zhushui pulled his arm to keep him away from the big tree again, and then he came back to his senses: "I, what's wrong with me?"

Lin Zhushui didn't say anything, but reached out to touch Zhou Jiayu's forehead, and after confirming that there was no abnormality in the temperature, he said, "Is it done?"

Elder Xu said, "It should be done."

Zhou Jiayu couldn't figure out what they were talking about.

Lin Zhushui said: "Since it's done, let's go, the place is very cloudy, he can't stay for too long."

Elder Xu nodded. They were about to leave when Zhou Jiayu suddenly heard a crackling sound like ice cracking. Lin Zhushui obviously heard it too, because his footsteps stopped instantly, and he said in a low voice: " Wait—someone else is here."

Elder Xu was taken aback when he heard the words: "Other people? How could it be..." Before he could speak, a huge branch of the ice and snow tree in the darkness suddenly broke directly, bringing ice, snow and branches with it. Countless little paper figurines at the head fell directly into the deep pit.

When Mr. Xu saw this scene, his face was ashen. He seemed to have guessed what was going on, and was trembling with anger: "Xu Jinghuo——are you fucking crazy?"

When Zhou Jiayu heard the name Xu Jinghuo, his first reaction was that the name seemed to match Lin Zhushui quite well...

No one responded.

Old Xu said angrily: "You actually did something to the ancestor tree—you, you, what are you thinking?! Don't hide!! I know it must be you!!" a figure.It's just that the voice was standing on a high tree trunk, looking down at them from a height, and the person called Xu Jinghuo by Mr. Xu slowly said: "Mr. Xu, I'm only doing it for Mrs. Xu's good."

Old Xu was going crazy, Zhou Jiayu didn't doubt it at all, if he had a pair of wings on his back, he would definitely fly up for the first time and fight Xu Jinghuo regardless of 21.

"I'm really doing it for your own good." It was a man's voice. It sounded very young. The owner of the voice should not be more than 30 years old. He stood on a tree trunk and said softly, "Old Xu, if you let Mrs. Xu go on like this, Sooner or later we will be wiped out."

Old Xu sneered: "Then what you are doing now will allow the Xu family to continue?"

"Of course." Xu Jinghuo said, "And you...you are quite amazing..." He shifted his gaze to Lin Zhushui, "Your name is Lin Zhushui, right? I've heard of you, you are amazing , very powerful—”

Lin Zhushui sneered: "Miao Zan." He said Miao Zan, but what he did was not polite at all. He reached out and took out three paper cranes from his pocket, and blew on the paper cranes.

Xu Jinghuo panicked when he saw this scene, he said: "Don't let the paper crane out - if you let it out, I'll cut off another branch!"

Mr. Xu hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin!" Looking at his expression, it seemed that Xu Jinghuo wished that Xu Jinghuo would let Zu Shu go and attack him.

Lin Zhushui didn't speak, he held his palm slightly, and in his palm, the three paper cranes started to fly slowly. There were bright flames on the wings of the paper cranes, and they didn't seem too easy to provoke.

Xu Jinghuo breathed a sigh of relief: "It's more or less the same."

Old Xu said: "Xu Jinghuo, come down quickly, I don't blame you for what you did before!"

Xu Jinghuo said: "You really don't blame me?"

Old Xu gritted his teeth and said, "No wonder!"

Xu Jinghuo grew up when he heard the words, he said: "Even if I said, I stole Hongxiu's body from here - you really don't blame me?"

Hongxiu?Yanhongxiu?Hearing this name, Zhou Jiayu realized that this matter seemed unusual.

When Mr. Xu heard the name Yan Hongxiu, he was irritated again, and said angrily, "You have the guts to say it! You are, you are—" A string of local words came out of his mouth, although Zhou Jiayu couldn't understand , but it is obviously cursing, and it seems to be quite dirty.

Xu Jinghuo laughed loudly when he heard the words, and he said: "I also want to tell you that I also released the locust tree demon. They are all dead now, and they don't even have a chance to reincarnate!"

Old Xu roared: "Shut up!! You bastard!!" He was about to take something out of his arms, Lin Zhushui said coldly: "Old Xu, calm down, he is trying to provoke you on purpose."

When Xu Lao heard the words, he stopped for a moment, and he seemed to have reacted. Xu Jinghuo said these words, obviously for another purpose.

"Cut it off." Lin Zhushui's fingertips gently teased the flaming paper cranes flying around his palm, and he whispered softly to the figure in the dark, "Xu Jinghuo, If I were you, I would cut off another branch and let us know how powerful you are."

Zhou Jiayu was shocked when he heard the words, and didn't understand why Lin Zhushui said such things.

Unexpectedly, Xu Jinghuo laughed loudly, and he said: "Mr. Lin, someone told me to be careful about you before. I thought they were thinking too much. I didn't expect that when we met for the first time, you really impressed me."

Lin Zhushui sneered: "Meeting you for the first time? I can't see it."

Xu Jinghuo said: "Oh?"

Lin Zhushui said, "Didn't you come here on the same train as us?"

Xu Jinghuo didn't respond.

The flame in Lin Zhushuidao's hands burned even brighter. His voice was very soft and gentle, but what he said was not so comfortable. He said: "Although I don't like to kill people by hand, but for you, I can make an exception."

When Lin Zhushui said this, his tone didn't sound like he was threatening, but Zhou Jiayu could tell that he was serious when he heard it.

Xu Jinghuo never made any provocative words, and he obviously felt that Lin Zhushui's words were not intended to scare him.

Lin Zhushui's body began to emit a scorching heat that was incompatible with this icy space. Zhou Jiayu standing beside him was probably the one who felt it the most.

Although Xu Jinghuo had the word "fire" in his name, he seemed to hate flames very much. He stayed on the branch and didn't speak for a long time. Just when Zhou Jiayu thought he couldn't say anything, he said: "Mr. Lin , You are indeed powerful enough. But no matter how powerful a person is, if he has a weakness, he will become fatal." When he said the word weakness, he set his sights on Zhou Jiayu.

"Weakness?" Lin Zhushui smiled brightly when he heard this. The strong confidence in his words made Zhou Jiayu feel as if something had hit his heart. He said, "I, Lin Zhushui, want to protect you." Can a person who is caught be called a weakness?"

Xu Jinghuo wanted to refute again, but a cluster of flames ignited on his body, and he said in horror: "This is impossible——when will you——"

Lin Zhushui sneered: "Nothing is impossible."

Zhou Jiayu watched Xu Jinghuo who was standing on the branch turned into a burning man, burning from head to toe, but it was very strange that he didn't make any sound, just stood up straight Falling from a branch into a bottomless pit.If he is really human, I'm afraid it will definitely be more ominous than ominous.

Old Xu's face was not very good-looking, and he said: "Mr. Lin...Xu Jinghuo..."

"Not dead." Lin Zhushui said coldly, "This is just a paper man manipulated by him. He should still be on Sheshan."

Old Xu said: "Paper people? But paper people are not allowed to touch our ancestral tree."

Lin Zhushui said: "What if this paper man was not born from this ancestral tree?"

Old Xu's eyes widened, as if he couldn't accept Lin Zhushui's words at all.

Lin Zhushui gently brushed away the ashes in his palm, and said: "Excluding other possibilities, this is the only answer. Tell the people in the village to pay attention, Xu Jinghuo's natal paper figurine is damaged, and his body will definitely be damaged. Get hit hard, don't let him go."

Elder Xu nodded his approval.

Zhou Jiayu also heard the name Yan Hongxiu from Xu Jinghuo's mouth just now, he hesitated for a moment, but still asked out the doubts in his heart, and said, "Old Xu, what happened to that Yan Hongxiu?" What's the matter?"

Old Xu said: "That's a long story..." He slowly told Zhou Jiayu about Yan Hongxiu and Xu Jinghuo.

Yan Hongxiu does not belong to the Xu family, but a relative of the Xu family.Their ability to manipulate paper figurines is getting weaker and weaker, and they have almost lost this ability in Yan Hongxiu's generation.

But Yan Hongxiu is a different kind, she is very capable, and she is loved by the ancestor tree.It's a pity that the sky is jealous of talents, and Yan Hongxiu, who was not yet twenty, was found to be terminally ill and died soon after.

After she died of illness, Mr. Xu buried her around the ancestral tree as usual.But one day, it was discovered that Yan Hongxiu's body had disappeared, and at the same time as her body, there was also the locust tree spirit whose temperament had changed drastically because of Yan Hongxiu's death.

At the beginning, Mr. Xu suspected that it was caused by Xu Jinghuo, but there was no evidence, but now he heard Xu Jinghuo admit that he led all this.

When he said these things, Zhou Jiayu was listening, but Lin Zhushui walked to the ancestor tree.He closed his eyes, as if he was listening carefully for any movement under the pothole.

"Have you guys gone down to see it?" Lin Zhushui asked suddenly.

Elder Xu was stunned: "The bottom is too deep, and paper figurines can't be brought in. We have never gone down."

Lin Zhushui said: "There should be a dark river underneath."

Old Xu said: "You mean..."

Lin Zhushui said: "Xu Jinghuo transported the note he cut off just now out of the dark river."

Old beard Xu began to tremble with anger again, scolding the bastard, how dare he covet the branches of the ancestral tree——

Lin Zhushui's expression was a bit strange: "But there is good news."

Elder Xu said, "Huh?"

Lin Zhushui pointed to the big tree of ice and snow: "Your ancestor tree is angry."

Although Lin Zhushui said such a sentence, Zhou Jiayu didn't understand what Zu Shu was angry about.Until they left the cave and rode their sleds to a river near here.According to Mr. Xu, there is only one river nearby. If there is a hidden river, it must be connected to this river. Moreover, the water temperature of that river is relatively high and it does not freeze all year round, which is quite special.

However, when they got there, they found that the river that Mr. Xu said would not freeze had already been covered with a thick layer of ice.Generally, when a river freezes, there will still be some running water underneath, but this river is completely frozen.Presumably this is the result of the ancestor tree getting angry.

Under the ice, Zhou Jiayu saw the palm prints of many people. The palm prints were so densely packed in the river that the scalp felt numb.

Looking at the river surface, Zhou Jiayu suddenly felt that the palm print was somewhat familiar. He said, "I've seen this situation on the ice rink too!"

Elder Xu said, "Ice rink?"

Zhou Jiayu nodded: "Isn't there an ice sculpture exhibition under Sheshan? When Shen Yiqiong and I went to see it, we also saw a lot of handprints under the ice rink."

Old Xu said: "Oh, that's left by the paper figurine." He said, "The paper figurine is used to support the people above to collect ice, and sometimes it will leave some fingerprints."

So that's the case, Zhou Jiayu's doubts were solved, and he was faintly relieved - it's not a human palm print, so it's good.

"Open the ice." Lin Zhushui said suddenly, "There is something under the water."

After hearing Lin Zhushui's words, Mr. Xu took out a whistle from his bosom and blew it vigorously. The next moment, several paper figures appeared in front of Zhou Jiayu's eyes.These paper figurines seemed to be blown by the wind, and they stood in front of their eyes in an instant.

Elder Xu gave them an order to break through the ice.

A few paper figurines bent down and began to work hard.

Zhou Jiayu noticed the whistle in Old Xu's hand, and remembered that Xu Jinghuo deliberately provoked Old Xu before.

Kacha, Kacha, although the paper people's hands are made of paper, they are not soft at all when breaking through the ice. They quickly cut the frozen river into several large pieces, and began to search for what Lin Zhushui said.

Lin Zhushui had said before that there was something under the water, but when he saw the paper figurine lift up the frozen ice, Zhou Jiayu involuntarily took a few steps back.

Inside that huge block of ice were four dead bodies.

Zhou Jiayu was very familiar with the appearance of the corpse, it was the few college students he met on the train.But that's fine if that's the case, but these four corpses were actually tightly hugging a thick branch.That branch was clearly cut off from the ancestral tree just now.

"This, this..." Mr. Xu said in amazement, "How can there be dead people here?!"

Lin Zhushui didn't answer, but just ordered the paper figurine to bring the dead man and branches to the bank and get up.

Zhou Jiayu leaned closer to Lin Zhushui, with a look of impatience on his face: "Sir, how long has the accident happened to these students?"

Lin Zhushui said, "It's been a few days."

Zhou Jiayu counted and found that there were only four people. He recalled what Lin Zhushui said before, and was stunned: "Sir, that Xu Jinghuo came into the mountain with us pretending to be a college student?"

Lin Zhushui nodded.

Zhou Jiayu looked at the genders of the corpses, and found that there were three men and one woman, and one girl was missing, and that girl was the Xiaoju whom he had exchanged phone numbers with...

Zhou Jiayu was startled: "Is Xu Jinghuo a girl?"

"Men." Lin Zhushui sneered.

Zhou Jiayu: "..." He admired Xu Jinghuo's makeup skills, except that he felt that Xiaoju was a little too tall, but he didn't notice anything unusual at all.

"Let's deal with the corpse and branches first." Lin Zhushui said, "Don't lean over, be careful with the corpse."

Zhou Jiayu was still wondering if Lin Zhushui was wrong and why he should be careful with the corpse, but in the next second, he watched helplessly that the corpse, which was holding the tree trunk stiffly, moved a bit.

Zhou Jiayu: "?!"

Elder Xu also saw it, and said in surprise, "Mr. Lin, this corpse can move!"

Lin Zhushui said: "Of course it can move." He was not surprised at all, "Otherwise, who will transport this branch."

Zhou Jiayu: "..." It seems...it makes sense.

The author has something to say: Today’s comment section is for the driver, Chang Dudu’s sister:
