Chapter Seventeen [Su Mazi]
"You opened the coffin because you wanted to get the jade pendant?"
After the man sat down, the cousin had already thrown away the apple core in his hand, took another one out of his pocket, stretched out his hand, took out a white handkerchief, wiped it, and spoke lightly.
"Yes, since you know, why bother asking?"
The middle-aged man snorted coldly, relaxed his face, and looked at his cousin coldly.
The cousin's eyes were still on the apple in his hand, with a sneer on his lips and said:
"Why bother asking? Are you able to get your hands on this thing? Do you think you can really take away the jade pendant? With your corpse poison?"
The man glanced at his cousin, with a smile in his eyes. He knocked on the table and said:
"If it hadn't been for this boy Zhong Yuan last night, do you think you would still be standing here talking today?"
The cousin stopped his hand, put it down, turned his head and stared at the man, and said in a cold tone:
"You have no chance now. This is something belonging to the Zhong family. You, an outsider, cannot get it. Besides, my cousin is in charge of the jade pendant now. If you want to get your hands on the jade pendant in the future, you are going against our Zhong family."
"The Zhong family? A ghost hunting family, very good. I remember it. Don't be careless. Besides me, there are many people who want to get this jade pendant. You can't let them get it easily. I did move it yesterday.
The hands and feet of the coffin, because I want to see if the jade pendant was buried with it. This is a treasure related to the two realms of yin and yang. People on the road have coveted this treasure for a long time. The old man helped me overcome difficulties during his lifetime, and now you have discovered it.
, I will stop, if one day this jade pendant is no longer in your hands, then don’t blame me, Su Mazi, for not remembering the old love."
After the man who claimed to be a man finished speaking, he stood up, left the table, and walked outside the funeral shed.
After listening to Sumazi's words, I knew that this person must have some relationship with grandpa, and he knew about the jade pendant in my hand, and had a relationship with grandpa during his lifetime. He came here just to take the jade pendant secretly, which seemed to kill grandpa.
The person with my mother was not him, but someone else. However, I was very unwilling to let him go like this. After all, he injured me yesterday and stunned my cousin. How could he just let it go? I watched
Looking at my cousin, he seemed to see through my thoughts and just shook his head solemnly at me.
Now the clue was cut off at once, which made me feel a little upset. After reminding me, he was still eating apples slowly. When the food was served, he only ate some vegetables and left the table.
After I had eaten, I went to the room to wake up Fatty Hei, and then went to the mourning hall to do some trivial things.
In the afternoon, my uncle came over. He pulled me aside and asked softly:
"Did you notice anything strange when you were keeping vigil yesterday?"
I was slightly stunned. Did my uncle already know what happened yesterday? It seemed impossible. My cousin would definitely not tell his father about it.
Seeing my hesitation, my uncle touched my shoulder blade and said again:
"You kid obviously has a yin bone, so it stands to reason that you can see some things. Xiao Yuan, tell your uncle honestly whether you have seen grandpa's soul."
It turned out that he asked me if I had seen my grandfather’s soul. I shook my head and said:
"I didn't see it last night, but when I was too tired, I had a dream and saw grandpa."
"Really? Did the old man say anything to you? Did he say who killed them?"
The uncle looked disappointed at first, but after hearing what I said next, he immediately became energetic and looked at me nervously, for fear of missing something.
"He told me not to take revenge and to follow you back to the metropolis. He said that you would protect me and that the jade pendant should not be given to others."
I told my uncle the truth. He was my father’s biological brother. We had the same blood flowing through our bodies. If we didn’t rely on him, who could we rely on?
The uncle was startled, then sneered. He clenched his fists tightly and said to himself:
"Old man, do you still think I am the kid I was back then? Do you think I haven't grown up yet and you are afraid that I won't be able to avenge you? What a joke, even if you don't tell me, I will still find my enemies and find my brother!"
After saying that, his face looked a little ferocious.
The gentle uncle seemed to have disappeared, and now he has become very angry.
"Xiao Yuan, after the funeral is over, you can follow me back to the big city. I will arrange a class for you and then you can study in the city."
After my uncle calmed down, he patted me on the shoulder and said.
I shook my head and told my uncle what I was thinking:
"Brother-in-law, thank you for your kindness. You just need to help me find a suitable job. I want to make money, and I also need to find my father. I don't know whether he is alive or dead, and I must find him."
I know that nothing can be done without money, but as long as you have money, many things will be easier to do.
The uncle was stunned for a while, then patted my shoulder and said:
"Silly boy, don't worry, my uncle will make arrangements. Your father is my brother, shouldn't I go find him? We are all members of the Zhong family."
Seeing the sincere look on my uncle's face, I thought about it and said:
"Uncle, are you a ghost hunter?"
The uncle's expression changed slightly, he glanced around, took me to the back of the house, and asked with a slight frown:
"You know? Who told you?"
I was about to speak when suddenly my cousin stood behind me, glanced at my uncle coldly, and said:
