Chapter 218
"We, let's not." Teacher Jiang was frightened and wanted to leave.

"It's okay, if you can't listen anymore, you go and wait for me." Zhu Xiaozhou thought that it was already here, how could he not stop?Anyway, here they are, maybe we can find the truth from the old man's "story".

Although it is a bit bizarre, no one is sure how true the old man's narration is.

And listen.

Teacher Jiang couldn't persuade Zhu Xiaozhou, so he looked at Bai Yuan.Unexpectedly, Bo Yuan stood behind Zhu Xiaozhou unmoved. Teacher Jiang knew how to do it, and walked to a distance by himself, blocking his ears.

Resolutely don't listen.

The old man continued to tell Zhu Xiaozhou and the others that when the man raised his eyes, he saw the prince's body standing in front of him.And the emerald wrench is on the prince's hand.
The man was frightened and kowtowed repeatedly, saying that they just couldn't live anymore and didn't intend to disturb them, just wanted to take some valuables out and sell them to live.Since it disturbed him, he didn't want anything, but asked that prince to spare his life!
"Who knows, the prince actually understood it. He even told him that as long as he can do one thing for him, he would be willing to give him all those things." The old man said.

"work."

Zhu Xiaozhou muttered, this prince actually asked a tomb robber to do something?

"What else can he do, I agree." The old man continued, "Then the prince asked him to find something with his finger wrench. He also agreed on a time limit and told him. If he fails to come back before that time limit If he does, he's dead."

"Oh!" Zhu Xiaozhou understood, "So he brought that prince's finger out, but he didn't do anything for him. As a result, he was sucked into his life by that emerald finger finger, and his intestines were pierced. To save lives?!"

"That's right!"

The old man is proud, I didn't expect someone to guess it right.

"Xing Sansuan looked at him like that, so he made a fortune for him. Then told him that you robbed people's tombs first, but failed to do what they did. I can't help you. However, I It can extend your life for three days. You use these three days to go home, find your family, take care of your funeral, and don’t die outside.”

Afterwards, Xing Sansuan took over the man's finger, tied up a straw man, wrote his birth date on it, put it in a cloth bag, and buried it in his yard.

Knowing that he had few days to live, the man staggered home.

After returning home, I explained to my family members that I couldn't make it, and then I lay down there and died.

"But why did the emerald ring finger become Xing San's calculation?" Zhu Xiaozhou asked.

"That's the story. Xing San counted as a disaster for that man. He didn't let him die outside, but he sent him back home, extended his life for three days, and buried his finger in the ground of his house. After that person died, things often came looking for him in the middle of the night.”

According to the old man, it was the "prince" who came to the village in the middle of the night to look for him.

Because the person who worked for him died, he came to look for his own things, so he turned to Xing San.Relying on his past merits, Xing San talked to him and said that he would continue to find someone for him, but the premise was that before he found someone, he could not harm his family members.
Therefore, the wrench was left in Xing Sansuan's hands.

"Listen" doesn't look like it's getting into trouble either.

Zhu Xiaozhou pondered in his heart, Xing Sansuan and Finger Pulling, and the "Prince" in the ancient tomb. How trustworthy is this old man's words?I always feel that it is not true, but I can’t say which words are deceiving
"It's getting late." The old man looked at the sky, "You can't leave tonight, it seems that you can only stay overnight."

Only then did Zhu Xiaozhou pay attention, it turned out that it was almost seven o'clock before he knew it, and he hadn't eaten anything that day, and his stomach was rumbling. "Yeah, it's so late, so we won't bother you. I wonder if there is a hotel near here?"

"Hotel? There is no hotel in this place." The old man said, "Even the car is gone now, you can't leave. If you don't mind it, just stay at home. Although the house is not clean, it is also It's better than living outside here."

"That's right!" Teacher Jiang came over when he heard that there was a place to live, and persuaded Zhu Xiaozhou, "It's getting late, and I don't know if there is a car when we go back now, so we might as well live here. "

"Here? Are you sure you can live here?" Zhu Xiaozhou was free to say anything, but worried about whether she could adapt to this environment.

If you lived in the village, what would happen at night?

If he hears a little more movement, then Mr. Jiang must be scared out of his wits!

"I..." Teacher Jiang looked up at Zhu Xiaozhou, then at Bai Yuan.

If she was alone, she would definitely not have the courage to live in such a place, but now, there are two of them by her side
Now she is very fortunate to have invited Zhu Xiaozhou and Bai Yuan to come with her, otherwise she would be worried tonight.

"Okay, since you're not afraid, let's stay here." Zhu Xiaozhou looked at Bai Yuan.

Naturally, Bai Yuan didn't have any objections, but he couldn't help but sighed when he heard Zhu Xiaozhou say that.

The old man specially arranged a room for them in the yard, and entered the middle room, with one room on each side, so it happened that Zhu Xiaozhou and Mr. Jiang lived in one room, and Bai Yuan lived in one room by himself. "Just live here. The countryside is certainly no better than your city. Everything is more convenient there. We don't have this or that here. You just leave."

"Master, can you tell me where I can fetch water?" Teacher Jiang asked, "I really can't sleep if I don't wash my face after a busy day."

"Hey, I'm afraid it's too late." The old man said, "It's too late. If you want to fetch water, you have to walk a long way from here. It takes an hour to go back and forth to the Daoxi River."

"It's so far away?" Teacher Jiang was stunned. He never thought that it would be so inconvenient to fetch water. "Either, or else"

"Otherwise, let's forget it, it's just one night, and Renren will pass." Zhu Xiaozhou advised her, since they are all here, let's do what is convenient now.

"we can only do this."

One thousand and ten thousand of Mr. Jiang are unwilling. If she knew this was the case, she would not come here no matter what.

Too guilty.

"Are you hungry? Shall I ask the old woman to get you something to eat?" the old man asked enthusiastically.

"Okay." Teacher Jiang was already too hungry. No matter what it was, even if it was farm food, he didn't care about whether it was delicious or not, as long as he could fill his stomach.

"Don't bother." Zhu Xiaozhou refused, "Master, we are not that hungry. It's getting late, you and grandma should go to bed earlier. We have disturbed you very much by living here, so we don't have to Prepare food for us."

"You..." Teacher Jiang was puzzled.
