Chapter 1 Ancestral House

The next day, I bought the return ticket and returned home.

My mother was naturally very happy when she saw me coming back. Although my father was dissatisfied with my absence for several days, she still put the biggest piece of fish in my bowl. Thinking of the experience during this period, I felt warm in my heart and almost fell down my tears. Fortunately, I tried hard to eat and swallowed the tears.

But it was a bit troublesome to explain the injuries on my body, so I had to say that I accidentally rolled down the hillside while playing, so I hurt my head and scratched my hand. My mother blamed me for being too careless and told me not to go to such a dangerous place to play in the future. I smiled and nodded, but said in my heart that I actually didn’t want to!

This night was the most serene time I had in this period of time. I didn’t dream, and I slept until dawn. Until I woke up in the morning, I felt that my previous experience was like a dream. Everything was so incredible and incredible. Only the wounds on my body and the backpack in the corner of the room reminded me that they all happened.

I opened my backpack and when I walked out of the desert, we followed Dawuti's persuasion and threw them all into the sea. Fortunately, we did this, otherwise it would be difficult for us to explain clearly when the police investigated.

I took out the lost and regained haircut from my bag and took it in my hand and looked carefully. The lanyard on it was broken by the faceless monster. I planned to go out and buy another one after another. Suddenly, I found a crack on the haircut at some point, which surprised me and felt very distressed.

Did it break during the snatch from the Single Ring Royal Tomb? I quickly brought a soft cloth and carefully wiped it, thinking about the remedy in my heart. Perhaps because I wiped it too hard, with a slight "click", the hair marks in my hand were completely broken. I was shocked and cold sweat suddenly flowed down.

But the hair-blade did not turn into a pile of pieces as I imagined, but was still a whole. The broken one seemed to be just a part of the surface. I slowly lifted down a piece with a knife and suddenly found that what was broken was just a layer of patina outside. Under the patina, there was another layer.

I thought about it, and then carefully removed all the patina on the outside, which leaked out the patterns inside, as well as many scratches and tiny depressions on the surface of the copper seal, but the words engraved at the bottom were still the same. Looking at the hair-shed mark in front of me that peeled off the outer patina, I thought this should be its true face. Although it did not have the smooth and warm feeling, it was more ancient and vicissitudes.

Why wrap the original hair-shed seal and disguise it? Is it to protect the hair-shed seal itself or to hide something? Is it really a secret contained in it?

I took the hair cream seal again and looked carefully. Soon I found some strange places. There was a small hole about two millimeters in diameter at the top of the hair cream seal. At the bottom of the hair cream seal, which is the place where the eight words "The Heavenly Officials Blessings No Taboo" are engraved, there are also many holes, large or small.

I found a toothpick and poked it one by one, and basically all went deep into the inside of the haircut. There were some tiny ones that could not be poked in at all. But I didn't find any mechanism, so what are these small holes used for? I put them in the sunlight and couldn't see the purpose of these things at all.

I suddenly wanted to call my second uncle. I was very good at this kind of thing. Maybe he could come up with some tricks, but when I mentioned my second uncle, I felt heartbroken again. His whereabouts are still unknown. Although after someone left me that strange symbol, the possibility of my second uncle still being alive has increased a lot, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents. Whenever I think of these, my heart still gets up and down.

However, I tentatively called my second uncle. Unexpectedly, his phone was turned off.

I found a handkerchief to wrap the hairshed seals and put it into the innermost part of the drawer.

After this trip, my backpack was worn out so badly that I poured out all the pieces and a few dirty clothes inside, and there was a jewelry box with very exquisite packaging. I was stunned for a moment. I had forgotten this thing. I reached out to pick up the jewelry box, feeling a little sad.

I opened the jewelry box and there was a Rongchang Pavilion delivery document on it. I took a look and quickly tore the document and threw it into the trash can. If my parents knew that I bought a bracelet for 500,000 yuan, they would definitely think I had snatched the bank, but there was no explanation for this matter.

Looking at the delicate and gentle bracelet under the jewelry box, I seemed to see the beautiful girl with picturesque eyebrows and eyes again. When I recalled our experience, I finally smiled bitterly and shook my head. Everything was over. I took out the bracelet and walked quickly to the kitchen, "Mom, I'll give you a gift..."

The snowflakes were floating, and it was the Spring Festival again in a blink of an eye. Looking at the falling snow outside, I couldn't help but think of the snow in Altay again and those people. I called Yuanxiao and heard my voice. Yuanxiao was very happy, but I could hear that he seemed very busy. I asked him if there was anything. Yuanxiao laughed and reassured me, saying that I would come to play with me after the New Year.

Although Lantern Festival was easy to say, I can guess that Tang Handong's death will definitely bring great changes to the Tang family. Moreover, in the undercurrent and power-sharing Tang family, Lantern Festival will definitely be difficult. I am really worried about him, but I, an outsider, can't help him, and I hope he can handle it.

During the Spring Festival, the whole country celebrated, but I was a little happy. After the Spring Festival, I would go back to my hometown to worship my ancestors. My grandfather's lineage was only my father and my second uncle. Now the problem arises, and the second uncle can't contact me. I don't have any reason to worship my ancestors. This is a joke in my hometown.

My dad has been upset about this matter recently. I know that I often play with my second uncle. I have asked me several times about my second uncle in the past two days. I have been fooled by it all. I know that my second uncle is missing, but I still have to hide it and pretend that I don’t know anything. The pressure is really huge. I am really afraid that I will tell my dad one day if I can’t hold on.

But in the end I still held back, and during the Chinese New Year, my second uncle really didn't come back. There were thousands of lights and firecrackers outside, and every family was happy. But I pretended to be nothing, but there was always a thorn in my heart. Where did the second uncle go?

When I returned to my hometown to worship my ancestors on the first day of the first lunar month, my father's face was not very good-looking, probably because my second uncle couldn't contact me. I quickly persuaded him, "Dad, my second uncle may really have something urgent, so I can't come here, so don't blame him!"

But my father shook his head, "If you don't come, you won't come. I'm not blaming your second uncle. I just can't contact him. I'm a little worried!"

As expected, my brotherly love is still deep, and I am afraid that my father will be too worried, so I lie casually again, "Some time ago, when I went to play in my uncle's shop, I heard that he was going to the south to get some medicinal materials. It seemed like an old customer's urgent matter, and the number is quite large. I guess my uncle has been busy with this matter and it is difficult to get out for a while."

"Do you know where you went?"

"This," my mind was turning rapidly at this moment, "Well, it's probably Kawagui, and he is also an old drug dealer who has been working with for many years, so there will be no problem."

The father nodded, "The industry that your grandfather has left behind has been thanks to your second uncle over the years, so it is difficult for him!"

"In two days, I will go to my second uncle's store and check the contact information of the supplier there to know my second uncle's situation."

“Okay.”

Finally, I dealt with my dad. I was sweating coldly. It was really not easy to have to smooth things over for my second uncle. If I see him again, I have to let him compensate me!

It is very tedious to worship ancestors. It is said that our Zhuo family has been since my grandfather's father and practiced medicine here, so we settled here. Speaking of which, our Zhuo family is not a native native. Although we have experienced several generations here, it is somewhat considered a foreign surname, so there are not many families with the Zhuo surname. Despite this, it takes more than half a day to go through a ritual.

The previous one was about my father and uncles. I was so bored that I sneaked out. I wandered around the village casually, recalling some of my childhood. Speaking of which, I spent basically here with my grandfather when I was seven years old.

When I was young, I was in poor health. I went to hospitals all over the country, but my health still did not improve. Although my parents were anxious, they still had to survive and maybe their life would continue. They had to go out to work. So I was fostered at my grandfather's house.

My grandfather is an old Chinese doctor and his medical skills are also well-known locally. Although my grandfather is helpless about my physical condition, he is much better than ordinary people to take care of him. At the same time, this is also my grandfather's wish. I didn't expect that this place would last for several years, and I just occasionally returned to the city to live with my parents for a while.

Perhaps it was God's favor, and finally, under the care of my grandfather, my health gradually improved. It enabled me to return to the city to go to school healthily when I was seven years old. This time, when I came back, I saw these, and I reminisced about my childhood. However, my memories of this place were basically all about things after the age of six, and my memories before the age of six were very vague. I think it was probably because I was still young at that time and I was in poor health.

I once doubted my childhood experience because of this, but now thinking about it, that's really nonsense!

Since my grandfather passed away, I rarely come back. Before I knew it, I walked to the door of my ancestral home. My grandfather had lived here before. After his old man went west, it has been empty. It's been over the year. My father or a few aunts will come back to clean up.
