Chapter 20: The God of Wealth is here(2/2)

But for a wealthy family that has stood in this land for thousands of years, it is really not a rare thing.

"Uncle, you are so familiar with this place. Did your family live here before?" Gao Zhuo asked tentatively.

He didn't know the origin of the old man, but he once heard his old man say that there used to be a chieftain family like this that had been passed down for thousands of years in the mountains.

It was a truly wealthy family, and all the Miao people did not dare to disobey the family's orders. It was called a country within a country.

But I don’t know what happened later. A fire caused the family to disappear without a trace.

It is said that he was attacked by bandits, and some said he was punished by the gods.

In short, from then on, few people mentioned this family.

Seeing that the old man was so familiar with this place, Gao Zhuo couldn't help but doubt the old man's true identity.

The old man lowered his head and did not explain. He just put his rough palm on the stone pillar in front of him and groped about one meter down the stone pillar. He could find a deep scratch.

Even though more than half a century had passed, when he touched this scratch, the old man could still clearly think of his father in his mind, who was bigger than him when he scratched a knife mark on the stone.

The remarks.

"Azai, you have grown taller again. From now on, my father will cut you on this stone every year. When one day you grow this tall, you will be the master of our family."

"Okay, okay, then I will be like my father and become the patron saint of our family."

The words spoken back then echo clearly in my mind.

But the knife mark that measured the height stayed at this height forever.

Thinking that the old man's eyes were slightly red as if there was sand in them, he wiped them with his sleeves a few times and then said to Xu Tong and the others: "Let's go, after passing here, there is Black Wind Mountain behind."

At the foot of Black Wind Mountain, a group of people were sitting under a tree, warming themselves by the fire and eating dry food.

He still couldn't help complaining: "What are we doing here? We are really suffering. If I had known it was so difficult in the mountains, I shouldn't have come."

"This will make you feel uncomfortable. Let me tell you, it's winter. If you go to the mountains in summer, hey, the mosquitoes in the mountains alone are enough for you to drink a pot."

Mentioning these bugs in the mountains, everyone couldn't help but feel terrified. Although the Miao people gave them deworming medicine, the medicine was not 100% effective.

Last night, someone was bitten by an unknown insect while sleeping.

As a result, the next morning, the person had turned into a pool of thick blood.

Thinking about that scene, I felt a cold feeling in the collar on the back of my neck. I inevitably felt a little regretful, but it was too late to regret now.

A man gnawed on the biscuit in his hand and said in an envious tone: "Hey, I envy those who were not selected by those seedlings. They should have withdrawn from Western Hunan by now."

"Why don't you evacuate and wait to die? So many of our people have died recently. Last time, seven people died and were discovered by the police before they had time to collect their bodies. Now there is a big fuss. If I hadn't been involved in a murder case, I would have evacuated long ago.

, why should I follow you into the mountains?"

As soon as the murder was reported, all the major exits and expressways were subject to various inquiries. Only the road into the mountain had no police, so those with criminal records had no choice but to go into the mountain.

"It's not that the information given by Feng Lailou was inaccurate. It said that someone was in Jishou. Who knew that so many natives suddenly appeared in Jishou? You said that boy named Xu Tong is really capable. So many natives are protecting him.

He, we can only watch helplessly as this God of Wealth stands there, no one dares to make a move."

Several people were talking to each other, and suddenly one person raised his head and said: "Someone is here again."

Several people looked back and saw four figures. A huge red coffin had appeared in their sight. They were eating sesame seed cakes in their mouths, but they didn't take it seriously.

However, suddenly someone rubbed his eyes and stared at the face of one of them carefully, and then the cake in his hand fell to the ground.
