C42 (1/2)

After hanging up the Brother Huang's phone, the three of us followed the mountain road and headed straight for the Lotus Cemetery. I had originally planned to let Elder Liang follow those people back, but this old man became interested and wanted to take a look at the tomb.

According to his words, you have to find yourself a better place because you're a man with your neck buried in dirt.” As the old man walked, he said, ”This place has extremely good feng shui. Look, hills and hills, like stars in the Milky Way, and this place is named Lotus Seed Mountain. Lotus seed has been a sacred artifact since the ancient times, what a good place!

”Haha …” Listening to Elder Liang's nonsense, he felt that it was rather interesting, and his depressed mood had lightened by quite a bit.

I said, ”It seems that you still have a high cultivation. How many years will it take for you to reach your level?”

Elder Liang laughed. He walked between Liao Mengfann and I, only to see him raise his arms and pat both of us on the shoulders, ”Good boy, after you have experienced too much and experienced too many storms, and seen too much life and death, you will have reached my level!”

The Elder Liang sighed, then said: ”In this world, nothing is a big deal, living well is the most important, there are countless of cases, do you want to lose a lot of precious things because of a case? Do you understand? ”

”But …” Isn't that what we do? ” I asked doubtfully.

”Ha ha!” Elder Liang slapped my head hard, ”Rotten wood can't be carved …”

I sighed helplessly. Can't you explain it more clearly? I looked at Liao Mengfann from the corner of my eyes and realised that she had her head lowered, as if she was deep in thought. In that instant, she seemed to be looking at me from the corner of her eyes. Only, for a split-second, I saw a lot of complexity in her eyes.

After about ten minutes, we arrived at the gate of the Lotus Hill cemetery. There sat an old man in his sixties or seventies. I walked over and handed him a cigarette.

”Gramps, I'm from the Public Security Bureau. I need to ask you something!” I lit a cigarette for the grandpa. ”Is there a large graveyard near this cemetery?”

The grandpa nodded and said, ”Yes. Don't enter the cemetery. Walk east along the cemetery wall. Turn left at the end. You can see a small path. Walk up the road for five to six minutes and you'll see it!”

”Okay, thank you!” I nodded to the grandpa.

”Lad, wait a moment!” The old man called out to me, and when I turned around, he said to me, ”You should be going to the grave, right? Seeing that you're quite a nice person, and that land is about to move, if you have a family member buried there, you should dig it out and change places as soon as possible! ”

The grandpa chuckled at me, ”The cemetery here is quite cheap. It's a good location for a hundred and fifty thousand yuan. 70 years is the same. You just have to pay another 50,000 yuan when the 20 years are up.”

”Heh …” I smiled. ”Thank you, but you can do your work first!”

After bidding farewell to the old man, we walked along the road that he had pointed out. Elder Liang was a little exhausted, so when we were halfway up the mountain, I smiled playfully at him and said: ”Elder Liang, do you still want to buy a tomb? Your pension should be more or less full! ”

”Haha!” ”This kid!” Elder Liang was amused by me, and he said: ”Hey, you can't die! Better to live well! ”Let's go!”

While I was leading the way, Liao Mengfann helped the old man walk up. During this time, I heard Liao Mengfann say to the Elder Liang, ”Grandpa Liang, don't be angry at Little Chuan.

”Pfft!” I resisted the urge to laugh out loud, but in my heart, I was actually happy. It seems that Liao Mengfann isn't that cold, she still knows how to speak up for me, it seems that my impression points are really high in her heart!

The mountain path was not too steep, but the soil was a bit soft. There was no helping it, it had just rained a few days ago. The air was filled with a faint fragrance, the wild flowers blooming all over the mountain were so beautiful.

I raised my head and saw a large mass of graves reflected in my eyes. There were tall ones and low ones, and some of the tombstones had already collapsed. The mahogany coffin that had long since rotted away was now dug out by someone and placed beside the grave.

Brother Huang said on the phone that Deng Yawen's grave had a tombstone, so the three of us quickly found a lonely little grave.

The grave was surrounded by wildflowers, but if you looked carefully, you would see that the wildflowers bloomed in an orderly manner. There was also no grass in front of the grave. It was very clean. It seems that someone came here often to take care of her, right? Could it be Wang Guifen?

The gravestone was carved with Deng Yawen's date of birth and death, and at the same time, the gravestone was erected with her adoptive parents' names. At this moment, the tombstone was stained with large amounts of splattered blood, and the ground around the tombstone was also covered in black blood.

A foul stench assaulted me, and I saw a turbid black substance on the altar of the tombstone. Elder Liang carefully walked over, and after looking at it, he said: ”This must be Zhao Qianer's brain!”

”Ah?!” ”Brain?” My body felt a little cold. ”Use your brain to give evidence to the deceased. What kind of hatred is this!”

”The depth of my love, the depth of my hatred!” It was at this time that Liao Mengfann walked to my side.
