    ?

    The dead cat that ran out added a little weird atmosphere to the journey.

    Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao forward, only to feel that it was getting darker and darker, a little inexplicable.

    "Why is it so dark?" Bai Yutang couldn't help frowning, it's not like he hasn't walked around at night, even if there is no moon, it wouldn't be so dark.

    "The wind is also light." Zhan Zhao said suddenly, "It seems that there are thick clouds in this area?"

    "Yes." Bai Yutang nodded, "The ancestral hall is right in front."

    "OhBrother Bai." Zhan Zhao called Bai Yutang suddenly.

    Bai Yutang stopped to look at him.

    "Actually, I can walk by myself." Zhan Zhao moved his hand, Bai Yutang looked down, his wrist was still in his hand.  Let go, the atmosphere is a little awkward.

    Zhan Zhao took a step forward and felt that his shoulders were touching his shoulders, so he said, "Remember to tell me if there are pits or rocks."

    "Uh, good." Bai Yutang nodded, and walked forward side by side with Zhan Zhao, paying special attention to whether the road under Zhan Zhao's feet was smooth It seemed that Zhan Zhao didn't like the feeling of being taken care of.

    Although the journey was weird, nothing happened again, and the two went up the mountain quite smoothly.

    This horse belly ancestral hall is indeed very dilapidated, and there are no lights. Bai Yutang listened, but there was no voice.

    "Is there no one?" Zhan Zhao was a little disappointed, "I thought there would be a few little hooligans here."

    "Maybe you don't dare to live anymore." Bai Yutang took out a fire pocket, and looked around with the faint light.

    The inside of the ancestral hall is quite gloomy, especially the horse belly statue in the middle of the main hall that is neither human nor ghost.

    There are still several piles of extinguished bonfires on the ground. It seems that some people have indeed lived here before, probably those wandering wild children.

    "It should have been a while since no one came." Zhan Zhao said, sniffing around, "Do you smell a musty smell?"

    "I smell a lot." Bai Yutang frowned and said, "There is also the smell of corpses."

    "It must have come from the mass graves behind." Zhan Zhao said, and patted Bai Yutang, "Shall we go and have a look?"

    Bai Yutang couldn't help frowning, "Look at the mass grave?"

    Zhan Zhao smiled, "I don't know if there will be anyone nearby, so let's take a look around in the temple first."

    Bai Yutang found a relatively dry place in the main hall, lit a bonfirethe surroundings immediately became bright.  Looking around, there is nothing unusual. The white walls have peeled off a lot. I wonder if those children are naughty, and there are many black paintings on the walls

    Bai Yutang walked over slowly, looked at the paintings, at first he thought they were drawn casually, but after a closer look, "It looks like the ones your elder brother drew on the bedside."

    Zhan Zhao was taken aback when he heard this, "Really?"

    Taking out the portrait of the fourth son and their rubbings for comparison, Bai Yutang nodded, "The words by the bedside are part of a whole wall of scribbles."

    A lot of willow sticks that were burnt to black charcoal were thrown beside the wall There are also small black handprints on the wall, obviously, these were drawn by children.

    "It's impossible for those children to live in Room No. 1 in Tianzi, so the eldest brother has been here?" Zhan Zhao got some clues and fumbled for them.

    Bai Yutang hurried over, "Where are you going?"

    Zhan Zhao grabbed the hair on Bai Yutang's chest with one hand, "I'm looking for you."

    Bai Yutang pulled his hair back and let him put it on his shoulders, "Do you want to look around to see if there are any other clues left by your elder brother?"

    Zhan Zhao nodded, "Sure enough, he is a bosom friend."

    Bai Yutang was inexplicably awkward when he heard the "confidant".  In a blink of an eye, I saw a candlestick on the altar with half of the unburned candles on it.

    Bringing the candle and preparing to light it on the bonfire, Bai Yutang discovered something

    "Here are some bones."

    "What bone?"

    "Very small and thin." As he said, Bai Yutang picked up the fire with a branch, and found a few burnt mouse skins.

    "It's a mouse."

    "Oh." Zhan Zhao nodded, "It's probably because the children have nothing to eat, so make a snack with roast mice."

    Bai Yutang frowned slightly, put down the firewood, and stood up, "But the cat ate the mouse and died."

    "The child is dead too isn't it?" Zhan Zhao asked back.

    The two suddenly felt strange again.

    After a long time, Zhan Zhao suddenly said, "By the way, I found one thing."

    Bai Yutang looked back at him, "What?"

    Zhan Zhao uses his fingersIt was 20:00, but the water surface was still dark and calm At this time, the sky was at its darkest.  In the silence, there was a slight "creaking" sound from the mass graves in the distance. I don't know if it was the wild dogs gnawing on the bones or the corpses grinding their teeth.

    "I can't see it at this time"

    After a long time, Zhan Zhao suddenly broke the silence, "It's very exciting!"

    Bai Yutang amused him with his words, and the atmosphere was not as tense as before, "Let's go into the main hall and draw all the pictures on the wall to see if we can find clues. As for the surrounding area, we'll talk about it after dawn.

    "Yes." Zhan Zhao nodded in agreement.  The two turned and entered the hall.

    When the two of them left the yard The water in the pool suddenly opened up again, and a black head slowly popped out from the center of the pool

    Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao returned to the front hall, the bonfire was still burning, and the light made it less gloomy.

    Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao to sit down on a futon, took out the pen and paper he had with him, and began to trace the pictures on the wall.

    The surroundings became quiet again, except for the rustling of paper.

    Zhan Zhao sat on the futon with his chin in one hand, thinking wildly in his head Bai Yutang is good at kungfu, and what is rare is that he is also very talented in writing, good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.  According to Gongsun, even if he doesn't know kung fu, he is still a leader in throwing Bai Yutang into Mr. Wen Sheng's group.

    Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but click his tongue twice.

    Bai Yutang heard his movement, so he asked, "What?"

    "Hmm" Zhan Zhao thought for a while, "From now on, you should call me hello or hey."

    Bai Yutang didn't say anything, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

    After a long time, Yuantian finally turned pale, and Bai Yutang copied the paintings on the entire wall.  Putting the paper away, he walked to Zhan Zhao and sat down next to him, heaving a sigh of relief.

    Zhan Zhao closed his eyes, his elbows were only on his knees, as if he was resting.

    Bai Yutang said, "Worried about your brother?"

    "Um."

    Zhan Zhao nodded and asked, "Are you good at communicating with children?"

    Bai Yutang thought for a while, "What do you think?"

    "Girls are probably better" Zhan Zhao replied with a half-smile.

    Bai Yutang shook his head, "Why do you ask these questions?"

    "For a while, that little monkeymay not pay attention to us." Zhan Zhao said, "This kind of kid has been bullied since he was a child, and he doesn't trust outsiders."

    Bai Yutang turned to look at Zhan Zhao, "Is he similar to your brother when he was a child?"

    "He should be worse than my brother." Zhan Zhao switched hands, "My brother doesn't have a tail anyway."

    Bai Yutang grew up surrounded by his elder brother's love and care. He has never experienced this feeling, but he probably won't get better. He raised his face, but his eyes fell on the beams of the roof.  After looking at it for a while, he couldn't tell why Bai Yutang suddenly felt that something was wrong with the beam, it was bowed downwards, not straight.

    "This is for you." Zhan Zhao took out the badge of Kaifeng Mansion from his waist and handed it to Bai Yutang, "I want to go to the county government office. Let's examine Liu Zhenren's body. You can pretend to be me."

    After Zhan Zhao finished speaking, he didn't hear Bai Yutang's answer, so he was a little puzzled, "Brother Bai?"

    "Huh?" Bai Yutang came back to his senses.

    "What's wrong?"

    "It seems" Bai Yutang said as he stood up and jumped onto the beam.

    Zhan Zhao also stood up when he heard the commotion, and soon Bai Yutang jumped down, "It seems that we really should go to the county government."

    Zhan Zhao was puzzled.

    Bai Yutang glanced at the beam, "I know where the bodies of those three little beggars are!"

    An hour later, the sky brightened.

    Early in the morning, when the policeman Liang Bao got up, he found that there was a letter beside the bed, with only one sentence - the body was on the beam of the horse belly ancestral hall.

    Liang Bao felt strange, so he brought his hands down to the ancestral hall, and really found the bodies of the three teenagers on the beam, he couldn't understand it.

    At this time, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also returned to the inn first, and the two decided to have a long-term discussion.

    Back in Tianzi No. 1 room, I saw that Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liang had already gotten up, and were sitting at the table eating snacks.  Seeing the two came back, Xiao Liang hurried to order two more snacks.

    Zhan Zhao went to the table and sat down, taking a rest.

    Xiao Sizi held a crab roe bun and stuffed it into Zhan Zhao's mouth.

    Zhan Zhao ate the steamed stuffed bun and said with a smile, "Little Si, help me find some clothes after eating, I need to take a bath later."

    The fourth son was not fully awake at first, but when he heard the word "bath", he immediately lifted his spirits and asked, "Take a bath?"

    "Well, if you rub my back again, it will be the same as before." Zhan Zhao said casually.

    Xiao Liang had already brought in some refreshments, Bai Yutang sat down, and everyone had breakfast together.

    "Well" The fourth son hesitated for a moment, and said, "I won't wash it for you."

    Zhan Zhao was taken aback, "Why?"

    "I asked Baibai to wash it for you." The fourth son muttered, "Or take a big bucket and you two wash it together."

    "Ahem"

    After the fourth son finished speaking, Bai Yutang choked on the porridge (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)The fourth son hadn't fully woken up yet, but when he heard the word "bath", he immediately lifted his spirits and asked, "Take a bath?"
