Chapter 178

Seeing Xiao Wu glaring at him, Xiao San walked up to the other party and whispered: "Do you have any problems with the other party? Just this can also be the person in charge of a stronghold?"

When it came to business, Xiao Wu's expression became serious, and he shook his head slowly: "Probably not, after all, the stronghold is right there, and the other party also knows the code, it should be one of our own, and if something really goes wrong, the higher-ups will not won't notice."

Xiaosan thought about it and thought it was right, but curled her lips and said, "Then what do you say about the other party? Pretending on purpose? Pretending for whom?"

Xiao Wu walked forward and said, "Don't pay attention to her, as long as she doesn't get in the way, let's find Tu Su's residence first."

Su Bai saw the two muttering at the side, and didn't know what they were talking about. Seeing that Xiao Wu had left, he hurried to Xiao San's side, and said with a smile, "Little San, what did you say to Xiao Wu just now? Didn't you find a clue?"

"Hehe, there is no clue, we just discussed what to have for lunch!" Xiao San laughed and left.

Leaving Su Bai with a dark face, not to mention pulling down, I really thought I couldn't find a clue!Muffled to follow behind the two, Hong Yang, who was at the end, saw that the three of them had left, only then came to his senses, and chased after them shouting.

The old village chief was right, Su Bai and the others quickly found Tu Su's house, it was really dilapidated, not to mention the walls leaking everywhere, and there was not a single tile left on the roof!If it weren't for a rusty lock hanging on the dilapidated gate, no one would think that this could still be called a residence!

Several people looked at each other, Xiaosan said: "Go ahead and have a look."

A few people didn't go through the gate, and the wall next to it was broken, leaving only a remnant wall less than one meter high. They easily crossed over and entered the yard.

The yard is full of weeds, and now it has a new look, but it is even more desolate. After sweeping around, Su Bai only saw earth, stone, bricks and nothing else. The scale of this residence is not small, except for a row of main rooms, There are also side rooms on both sides, but unfortunately there is no door on the door frame, no windows on the window, only holes, and you can clearly see the situation inside the house. Of course, the inside is full of bricks, tiles and stones, not even the residue of tables and chairs!

Xiao San patted his forehead and said, "It's like this, what else do you need to see? Do you want to tear down this wall to see if there are any martial arts secrets hidden inside?"

Xiao Wu shook his head and said: "There won't be any in the wall, do you think that among those who came before, no one has done this?"

Su Bai looked towards the wall, and sure enough, he saw holes everywhere, or it was broken, obviously it was man-made damage, it seems that someone has paid attention to it, the reason why the rest of the wall can survive is probably ruled out. There are agencies.

Xiaosan scanned around again, shook her head and said, "Let's go, it looks like you came to the wrong place!"

Hong Yang was still looking at it with great interest, and suddenly said: "Do you think it might be hidden underground? How about we dig it out and try?"

Xiaosan said helplessly: "Sister Hongyang, you still plan to dig three feet! It's good that this house can be preserved, so don't destroy it?"

Hong Yang said indifferently: "What's the matter! Do you think this house can still be used by people? Or there are other people in the Tusu family? This house will be completely demolished and rebuilt sooner or later. Let's inspect the foundation for them!"

After hearing this, Xiaosan also felt that this was the truth, but is it really necessary to dig three feet into the ground?He looked at Xiao Wu, and saw that the other party didn't respond.

Hong Yang didn't care so much, seeing no objection, he immediately started to find a place, cleaned up the ground, but suddenly found that there were no tools, raised his head and said: "Wait a minute, I'll find some tools."

Talking about it, he went out in a hurry. This is a rural area, so there are naturally a lot of farm tools, not to mention Hong Yang came back with a few shovels.

Throwing the tools at Su Bai and the others, Hong Yang said: "What are you still doing in a daze! Xiao San, you are in charge of the yard, Xiao Wu, you go to the main room, Xiao Bai to the west room, and I will leave the east side to me."

"Why do I have to dig the yard!" Xiaosan protested. After all, the yard is the largest, but he also agreed with Hongyang's idea of ​​digging the ground. Maybe he just didn't want to give up like this. After all, it was so far away. It’s here, so if you can’t, just take a look and leave.

Xiao Wu acted as if he hadn't heard, and went into the main room with a shovel in his hand. Su Bai and Hong Yang were not slow to react, and entered the east and west rooms. Seeing a few people ignoring him, Xiao San muttered, I couldn't hear what he was saying, but I thought it wouldn't be a good thing.

Little San did not slow down his work, but he didn't have much enthusiasm. He dug here and there, obviously coping with things, and didn't feel that he could really dig out anything.

Su Bai entered the West Room and took a good look around, but it was actually similar to what he saw outside. After all, there was nothing but bricks and tiles, and new discoveries were not made just by entering the room.

He sighed, feeling that there might be nothing underground. If he wanted to come, if those who came before were really yearning for Tu Su's martial arts cheats, even if the wall was demolished, they would never let it go. Go underground.

It's just that the traces of holes and broken walls on the wall are hard to erase, but not necessarily on the ground, and it may have been dug by someone, but at this time it can no longer be seen.

Su Bai cleared out a piece of ground, and found that the ground was full of potholes, which seemed to be signs of being dug up, so he felt that nothing would be dug out.But with a shovel in his hand, if he didn't dig twice, it really wouldn't make sense, so he just dealt with it casually.

"What are you doing!"

But not long after they dug, there was a loud shout from outside the house. Su Bai looked out and found that it was the old village chief.

The old village head had an angry look on his face at the moment, and he said angrily: "How can you dig people's houses! It would be nice to let you see, but this land can't be dug! Come out to me!"

Su Bai raised his eyebrows, seeing Xiaosan and Xiaowu went out, he followed suit, Hong Yang patted him on the shoulder, and whispered: "How is it? I'm right, maybe the martial arts cheats are in the This underground!"

"How do you know?" Su Bai asked in a low voice.

"Tsk! Think about it, if there is nothing, why is the old guy so nervous? It's just a dilapidated house, and you won't be allowed to dig it. Doesn't this mean that he has a ghost in his heart!" Hong Yang said to Su Bai. Can't see it, expressing a very disappointed expression.

Su Bai actually felt a little surprised, but said: "Sister Hongyang, maybe you are overthinking. The old man has something to do with that Tu Su. Of course I don't agree with you destroying his house."

Seeing what he said, Hong Yang glared at him immediately, ignored him, and went to look for Xiao San, but at this time Xiao San and Xiao Wu had already left the house and arrived in front of the old village chief. So much to say.

Seeing that several people had come out, the old village chief's expression softened, and he said, "You guys, you are also here to find martial arts secrets? I advise you not to waste your time, if there are any martial arts secrets, it would have It has already been taken away! Why wait until now?"

Hong Yang Jiao snorted, "Then why did you stop us from digging?"

The old village chief sighed and said, "I know Tu Su's family well. They only have a house like this. It's just a thought. They can't watch others destroy it, right? Besides, Tu Su is also a person who came out of our village. He is a role model to some extent. When talking about it to the younger generation, if the place where he lives is gone, no one will believe that Tu Su belongs to our village."

Xiaosan and Xiaowu looked at each other, Xiaosan smiled and apologized: "Old man, I'm really sorry, we will never dig again, don't worry, we are not here to find some martial arts secrets, really!"

The old village chief smiled noncommittally, seemingly in disbelief, and shook his head, "Forget it, you haven't eaten lunch yet, have you? The home meal is ready, if you don't mind, you can come together."

Just as Xiao San was about to refuse, Xiao Wu at the side said first: "That's really troublesome old man."

In fact, the old village head seemed to be polite, but Xiao Wu actually agreed, he was taken aback for a moment and said, "Then come with me."

The old village head's house is not far from Tu Su's house, only tens of meters away. The old village head's house is just an ordinary house. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Old woman, stir-fry two more dishes. Use the one I caught this morning." The fish is stewed, and there are guests at home!"

The one on the left should be the kitchen, with cooking smoke in it, and an old lady came out. The old lady is not really old, at least she is younger than the old village chief, and she looks about 60 years old, and the old village chief looked They are in their seventies and eighties!

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, is this an old cow eating tender grass?You must know that at this time, the age of the husband and wife is generally not too old. Of course, those wealthy families who marry concubines are exceptions.

Seeing Su Bai and the others, the old lady immediately smiled and said, "Who are these young people? They are not from our village, right? Don't stand still, come into the house quickly, and I'll cook two more dishes."

"Grandma, don't bother! We can eat whatever we want, I really bother you." Xiaosan said politely.

"No trouble, no trouble! It's rare that you can come, and the house is not so lively!" The old lady said and went into the kitchen again.

The old village chief led Su Bai and the others into the main room, and Su Bai asked, "Old man, are you the only two elders in your family? Where are your children?"

The old village chief shook his head and said: "Only we old couple, perhaps because of our previous life's sins, will have no children in this life."

Su Bai didn't expect this to happen, he thought the other party's children had gone to work in the city!Thinking about it again, it seems that in this era, people don't often go to the city to work, right?
However, it is naturally not easy to ask such questions, so he didn't mention it again. Soon the meal was ready, it was just some vegetables, and there was only one fish for meat. Su Bai and the others ate a little casually, and it tasted good. , Of course, I also asked about Tu Su cryptically, but I didn't get any useful information.

After a meal, Su Bai and the others bid farewell and left, and did not stay long at the village chief's house.
