At this time, Ouyang Xuanzi said, "It's very clean here."

"Who are you? I heard that you are not a local person?" The blind man was wearing a gray dress, which seemed to be a monk's robe. He looked at us as he spoke, his eyes were pitch black and very deep, but his face was red, which meant that he was in good health.

"We are Shen Qingqing's friends. Shen Qingqing's grandparents are gone. We are here to investigate this matter and want to ask if you know about this matter." I said, and Shen Qingqing also said: "Yes, my grandparents are gone."

"How long has it been since your grandparents disappeared?" asked the patriarch, his eyes always staring at us. Although I knew he couldn't see it, I still felt uncomfortable when I looked, so I went to another place to check it out.

The patriarch thought for a while: "I think something is wrong recently, but I don't know what's going on. I haven't been here."

"Then are the village chiefs of your village?" I asked, and the patriarch said, "The village chief should be my grandson now. I haven't left here for a long time. I will die here in a while. I will not ask about the outside affairs. You can go to my house to see, my grandson should be at home."

"Okay, let's go to the patriarch's house to see." After Anzi said that, he went outside. We followed Anzi to the outside. When he arrived outside, Anzi said, "I knew that this old man was very stubborn and would not tell us anything. We should go to the village chief's house to see first."

"Is this what you patriarch usually like?" I asked An Zi, and An Zi said to me, "You don't know that you have to look at the people before you can talk about them. Don't mention them. He always felt that this place should not be moved in for other people. Until now, he doesn't accept that some people live here. A few years ago, my father had a cousin who married a wife. The wife was from another place. When he was about to get married, he even said not to marry someone from outside, but later he was kicked out.

After that, it seemed that he had never come out again. And his eyes were also made by his parents. My parents said he broke it in the ancestral hall. I don’t know very well why it was like that, but something must have happened.”

Anzi was not fully explained, and we were not very clear about the specific matter. Since we didn't understand, we didn't continue to ask anything. When we arrived at the door of the village chief's house, Anzi knocked on the door. Not long after, a man in his 40s was around the age of 40. He looked ordinary and spoke ordinary. When he saw a few people at the door, he asked, "Anzi is back, have you brought the guests back today?"

"I came back yesterday. These two people are my friends. You have seen Qingqing. I have something to do when I came to you today. Do you know where Qingqing's grandparents went?" An Zi asked, and the village chief asked, "Are you not at home?"

"It's been a long time since I went home, and I don't know where I went. Qingqing's parents are not in China, so I found a friend to come and help. If you know, please help me find it." After An Zi said that, the village chief felt that the matter was a bit serious, so he came out: "These are two good people, where can they go if they are not at home, and Uncle Shen can't do any work anymore. Where can I go?"

"If you don't say it, what do you do when you see this?" An Zi asked. The village chief came out and thought for a while: "Let's do this, I'll call up the people in the village and ask if they have ever seen Uncle Shen. Even if they haven't seen him, everyone can help me."

"Okay, I'll tell the villagers too." After An Zi said that, the village chief had already come out to tell others. As a result, we delayed the whole morning. In the afternoon, a group of people sat in the village chief's house and were surprised that they all felt that an old man and an old lady shouldn't have disappeared.

I asked at this time: "When was the last time you met Qingqing's grandparents?"

"When was the last time?" These people heard me ask you to look at me, and I looked at you, and I couldn't remember it.

An older man said, "The last time I saw the couple was at the entrance of the ancestral hall, I remember they came out from there and said some divine words. I went over and asked them what they said, but they said nothing to me, but I saw that Grandma Qingqing's face was not very good, and she also said that this matter could be solved like this. I didn't hear anything after that, and I don't know if it was useful?"

After the man said that, I looked at Ouyang Xuanzi. Ouyang Xuanzi didn't say anything, but An Zi said, "Why didn't this patriarch tell us the truth?"

"What did you say? Have you seen my grandfather?" asked the village chief. Anzi said, "I have seen it. It was in the ancestral hall. We went to the ancestral hall first and then came here. But the patriarch said that he hadn't gone out for a long time. We said Qingqing's grandparents were gone, and he never said he had seen it."

"It's nothing strange about this. My grandfather is like that. He never talks to the outside world. I'll take you to see it again. Life is at stake and we should tell us." After the village chief said that, he came out of his home and explained a few words to the people in the family, asking the people in the village to help find people, and they can't just wait.

The explanation was made clear that the village chief took us back to the ancestral hall. When he arrived at the door, the village chief was like Anzi. He first bowed and then burned incense. He was done before he took us in.

Sure enough, the patriarch was sweeping the yard in the yard. Autumn was coming, and there were fallen leaves in the yard. When he heard us go in, the patriarch asked, "Who?"

"We." An Zi said as soon as he came in, the patriarch was stunned for a moment, and continued to sweep the yard without saying a word. At this time, the village chief walked over and stopped and said, "Grandpa, I am a grandson."

"Achang, what are you here? Is your family no longer busy?" asked the patriarch, his eyes still so empty, and the village chief said, "Isn't this the uncle Shen and his wife missing? Qingqing is looking for someone. Qingqing's parents are not in China now. We can't just watch it. Qingqing and her parents are old classmates, and they can't contact each other now. Do you think so?"

"That's your business. When they leave the village, they should know that sooner or later this matter will come to their door." After the patriarch said that, he threw the broom in his hand to his grandson and walked into the ancestral hall. The gate of the ancestral hall opened, and he walked in directly. I saw that his legs and feet were neat, and he didn't look like someone who had something to do.
