Travels

Chapter 116 Likeness

It may be because outsiders are not often seen, the two children were afraid of being born, so they shrank into the house dragging the bamboo pole.The eldest lady was a little dumbfounded, chasing after her and yelling repeatedly: "Don't run away, hey, I won't eat you again..."

Xia Wanmu didn't let out a sigh, and saw a fat woman coming out of the gate, protecting the two children behind her, and asked in a high-pitched voice, "What are you doing?!"

She had already clasped the door of the car, remembered the young lady's instruction and put it down again, turned to roll down the window glass a little, and listened quietly with her ears up.

"Sister, I just came to ask for directions, I'm not a bad person..." Ji Mingzhao's tone was embarrassing, and he stopped where he was, "Do you know where Zhalanpo is going?"

She didn't know whether Zhalanpo was real or if this person was just talking nonsense. In short, she was at a loss and couldn't figure out the young lady's routine at all.The eldest sister also looked very confused, but she still didn't relax her vigilance, and replied stiffly: "What Zhalanpo? I haven't heard of it!"

"Then is there a family surnamed Xu near here? A local rich family?" Seeing that the elder sister's expression became more and more confused, Ji Mingzhao reached out and pointed into the car, his voice lowered a little, "Elder sister, it's like this, I'm here to accompany me today. My cousin came to find her boyfriend. The boyfriend said that his family members were seriously ill, so he had to ask my sister to borrow a large sum of money. As a result, my silly sister was in a hurry, so I didn’t figure it out. Turned around, and then I couldn’t contact the man anymore. When she told me about it, I thought she met a liar? Ask her again, and she doesn’t know anything about the man’s details, so she knows My hometown has been stuck in this area, so I wanted to come and have a look..."

Xia Wanmu gathered her five fingers together and made a fist.

As expected of an Internet celebrity writer, he can spill dog's blood into a story in minutes, but this is made up in a hype, can people really believe it?

"Sin, there really isn't anyone with the surname Xu living in this area." The elder sister waved her hand, her voice softened, "Hurry up and go back before it's dark, the girls are from each other, and the mountain roads are not easy to drive, no Safety."

She let go of her fist silently.

"Hey, that bloody stinky man..." The eldest lady pretended to sigh, clasped her hands and put her mouth to her mouth, and showed a very embarrassed expression towards the eldest sister, "It's a pity that my cousin is very awkward, walking around here I've been asking a lot, and I still haven't given up. Before I came here, I didn't expect it to take so long. I didn't have anything in the car, and I ran for a day... Elder sister, can you make it easier for me? Let's have a light meal or something..."

She opened her eyes wide, and her eyes turned from the handful of red banknotes that the eldest lady took out to another person's face.The eldest sister frowned, looked back and forth between the money and the person several times, and slowly reached out to take the money.

"Come in and warm up by the fire."

The fat woman cast a distant glance into the car, turned around and entered the house, leaving a wide open door.Ji Mingzhao waved to her, smiling like a flower, she pretended not to see the dangling thumb on her chest, got out of the car and followed the people in.

"Sister Xia, what did I say? It's reliable!" The young lady leaned over with a smile, grabbed her arm and lowered her voice, "She didn't recognize me, and she probably doesn't know you either. As long as you don't take off the mask, you should be fine. After a while, you will pretend to be heartbroken and unable to eat, just sit next to you."

Before the words were finished, the two children who hid in the room before came out from some corner, one big and one small stood around, staring at them steadfastly.The younger one probably hasn't reached the age of school yet, with a droopy nose and pure curiosity in his eyes, but the older one is different. The tiger-headed boy frowned, unable to hide the doubts on his face. Wanmu inadvertently met those dark eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.

The boy opened his mouth and watched for a while, then his eyes widened suddenly, and one hand was raised to point at her: "You are the one..."

A woman's scolding suddenly sounded in the kitchen: "Hei Pi, you stupid child, are you still playing? There are guests at home, hurry up and bring tea to someone."

The angry voice was approaching, Ji Mingzhao saw that something was wrong, hurried to meet her, and while winking at her, he replied loudly: "It's okay big sister, let's do it by ourselves, just let the children play. You worked hard Here, let me give you a hand."

The polite voices of the two rang out lively for a while, and then gradually became quieter as the door closed.The spacious living room was somewhat airy, Xia Wanmu stood silently with the two children, dizzy from the strong light.

She squatted down, collected herself, and tried her best to ask the boy in a kind and calm tone: "Your name is Heipi?"

The little boy nodded.

"You just said, what am I? Do you know me?"

The boy opened his mouth, hesitated, and asked in a low voice, "Are you aunt's friend?"

Xia Wanmu hesitated for two seconds, then shook his head: "No."

A confused look appeared on the child's face, and she softened her voice: "Why do you think so?"

"My aunt has a picture. You look very similar to that person." The boy tilted his head and looked at her for a while, then added: "The eyes are exactly the same. Why are you wearing a mask, sister?"

"I have a cold, and I'm afraid of contagion." She answered patiently, but there was already a surge deep in her chest, "Where is that photo? Can I see it?"

"In my aunt's room."

Yu Qingge's room!She took a deep breath and her voice began to tremble: "Then why don't you take me to have a look? I also want to know how similar that person is to me."

"No, my aunt's room is locked, and my parents won't let me in, for fear that I'll mess it up."

"Then..." She didn't think that such a situation would happen again, and she still didn't give up after pondering for a long time, almost ignoring how strange her request was, "Do you know where the key is?"

The little boy named Heipi shook his head.

Xia Wanmu clenched her hands tightly, forced a smile on her face, suppressed the restlessness in her heart and continued to coax the child: "Will you take me to see your aunt's room?"

Hei Pi blinked, and pulled his brother upstairs, she followed behind, her calves were a little weak, and she absent-mindedly observed the surrounding environment.The house should have been renovated in recent years, and there are no relics of long-term life, let alone the shadow of Yu Qingge.Maybe this step was wrong, and there was little to gain from coming here. Except for the house, maybe the wild landscape has changed a lot. The only satisfactory answer is probably hidden in the locked room in front of her. The doorknob is slowly turned by the cold hand holding it——

The door was closed tightly, and the lock cylinder remained motionless.
