Chapter 1034

Bai Changfeng said helplessly: "Then let's go to Qijia Village first."

Qi Tang said hello, and led them into Qijia Village first.

Although there are some people in Qijia Village, there are only four or five elderly people left behind. The surrounding fields are deserted, and the forests and weeds are almost taller than adults.

Only in the middle, there is a small road, which is probably walked by people. It is very narrow and can only accommodate one person to walk through.

Qi Tang was quite familiar with this place, and soon took them to the home of an old man in Qijia Village.

This old man's house has a single yard, but the yard is piled up with stones of different sizes, as if the people in the past built it by hand.

The old house is also built of yellow mud mixed with straw. It has been exposed to wind and sun for so many years, and it has not collapsed, which is considered a blessing in misfortune.

Qi Tang led them, stood at the gate of the yard, and said in a low voice: "The old man here, according to his seniority, I have to call him the third grandfather. His seniority is very high. He is over 90 years old. Sometimes he is sober, sometimes he is confused. , and afraid of the sound, let's go in slowly."

Bai Changfeng nodded cooperatively.

Qi Tang pushed open the old wooden door that had almost no protective effect, only decorative effect, walked in, walked lightly to the door of the main room, pushed open the half-covered door, and looked in, "Third Grandpa, you are in the house ?"

The yard looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a long time. It was full of weeds, but there was a row of bluestone slabs in the middle, barely enough for people to pass.

There are thick spider webs under the eaves, and the wooden porch next to it has traces of being eaten by termites, giving it a precarious feeling, as if a gust of wind blows randomly, and the house may die at any time.

Seeing this scene, Xia Xin couldn't help but whispered: "This place is too dilapidated, doesn't the Third Grandfather have any descendants, and no one came to clean it up?"

Qi Tang was still looking into the room, and when he heard Xia Xin's words, he said, "Third Lord seems to have six sons, but three died that year, and there are only three left, all of whom are in the city, and they don't want to come back. Let's take the third grandfather to the city to enjoy the blessings, but the third grandfather refused to go anyway, so the father and son froze."

Qi Tang also went to ask the sons of the third grandpa, and wanted them to take the old man over.

But they all said that as soon as the old man went to the city, he would make all kinds of noises, saying that they didn't want to stay in the city, but they didn't want to come back to accompany the old man, let alone pay for the repair of the house.

The euphemism is that the old man will not want to go back if the house is well built and comfortable to live in. If this is the case, the old man will not live comfortably, and maybe one day he will be willing to go back to the city.

Qi Tang couldn't make sense to them, and the third grandpa didn't want to let outsiders in, so no one came to clean up the house.

Xia News said that he couldn't help but be speechless, it is useless to have six sons!

At this moment, there was a dull breathing sound in the room.

Qi Tang's eyes lit up, and he said, "Third Master, are you in the house?"

There was another voice from inside, an old voice like loose sand, as if it would be blown away by the wind, "Who is it?"

"The third grandfather is me, Qi Tang." Qi Tang pushed open the door and walked in.

Jiang Li, Bai Changfeng and others followed into the room. The room was paved with a layer of bricks, but it was still dirty. There was a thick layer of dust everywhere, and no one cleaned it for some time.

When several people walked in, the surrounding dust seemed to be flying.

Xia Xin couldn't help raising his hand, and fanned the floating dust in front of him.
