Chapter 16 Exchange
The village is not big and there are few people.
In addition, many people were working in the fields in the morning, so when Chu Yao went out for a walk, most of the people he met were children going to school.
What's more, Chu Yao took the road that was repaired. There were people walking in front of the repaired road, but there were no people on the uneven road in the back that was still full of dirt and stones.
All the way to the end.
Chu Yao saw the house surrounded by a separate yard.
There are rows on the left and right in front, and here, opposite the house is a mess of ruins.
Chu Yao stepped forward and knocked on the iron door.
The door knocker was covered with rust, and slag fell off with the impact.
It looks very dated.
Fortunately, the sound of the iron hitting was very loud, and there was a quick echo from inside.
"Here, who is it?" An old voice came, and after a while, Chu Yao saw an old man in a coat coming out through the wide crack of the door.
Chu Yao said: "Hello, I am Chen Anyan's friend."
"Friend?" Grandpa Chen squinted his eyes, put his hand on the door and didn't rush to open it, but looked at Chu Yao carefully.
Grandpa Chen asked, "What does Xiao Yan's friend want me for?"
Chu Yao thought for a while and didn't tell about Chen Anyan's death, but said: "Chen Anyan had an accident outside and couldn't come back, so let me come and help him take care of the old man."
Grandpa Chen was taken aback when he heard the words, opened the door and said, "That's it, then come in."
Grandpa Chen put his hands behind his back, bowed his waist and walked slowly in, muttering: "He hasn't been home for a long time, and he didn't know to call me, so something happened."
Just as Chu Yao stepped into the yard, he suddenly trembled, feeling a chill all over his body.
The instant vigorous breath is like a living person entering the underworld, this kind of coldness that penetrates into the bone marrow.
Chu Yao calmed down, and calmly took out the fan and held it in his hand.
There is indeed a problem with this yard.
"Sit down first, I'll get you a glass of water." Grandpa Chen called Chu Yao into the room, pointed to the round table, and then walked out on his own.
Chu Yao said, "Don't bother..."
Grandpa Chen didn't listen, he opened the curtain and walked out.
Chu Yao half-spoken, but did not stop anyone.
He had no choice but to sit on a chair and wait for Grandpa Chen to come back before asking some more questions.
The yards in the countryside are very large, and there are at most three or four rooms in a yard, divided into upper and lower rooms.
The room is also big, probably because the old man doesn't have much stuff, so it looks empty.
There is a quilt on the kang, which is neatly folded.
Apart from that...
Chu Yao looked at the photos on the shelf on the left and frowned.
It was a single photo of Chen Anyan.
It was more like a passport photo. In the photo, Chen Anyan looked straight ahead with a blank face.
The background color of the photo is bright red. Chu Yao guessed that the old man thought about his grandson so he put up a photo.
But colors other than red...seem to be white?There is also a bit of black and gray feeling.
Under the bright red color, it doesn't look very good-looking at all, but it's a bit gloomy.
Chu Yao stared intently for a while and then withdrew his gaze. It's always bad to touch the old man's things casually. Let's wait for Grandpa Chen to come back and ask him.
Thinking of this, the photo frame placed on the shelf suddenly fell off!
Chu Yao quickly got up and rushed forward a few steps, picking up the photo frame that was about to fall to the ground.
Chu Yao took a closer look and found that there was no damage. When he was about to put the photo frame back, he found that the red inside the photo frame was a bit shifted.
From a distance, I thought it was a photo with a red background. Perhaps it was because of the drop just now that the red paper was on one side.
... This is not a photo, but a piece of red paper cut out from the photo and clipped in the frame together.
Chu Yao raised his hand and gently unscrewed the buckle on the back of the photo frame, took off the outermost layer of glass, and the neatly cut red paper on the photo slowly fell.
The black-and-white photo was stuck tightly to the backboard, motionless.
——'唰'
There was a sound behind him, and Chu Yao quickly turned sideways.
I saw the thick wooden stick smashed straight down!
It hit the cabinet with a 'bang'.
The violent shaking made the things on the shelf fall down.
Grandpa Chen held the stick and looked at Chu Yao with a ferocious face, "Who allowed you to touch Xiaoyan?!"
Before Chu Yao could speak, Grandpa Chen threw away the stick, grabbed the photo frame and hugged it in his arms, choked up and said: "The others are gone, this is the only photo he left me, how can you move it casually?" ?!"
"Sorry." Although Chu Yao didn't take it on his own initiative, he read it anyway.
Grandpa Chen glared at him, put the photo frame back on the cabinet, and shouted: "You go! I don't want to see you, you go out!"
"Okay, don't be angry." Seeing Grandpa Chen blushing with anger, Chu Yao was afraid that something might happen to the old man.
He stood up and said, "I'll see you later."
Grandpa Chen closed the photo frame in his arms and ignored him.
Chu Yao had no choice but to walk out the door just in time to see Zhou Helan walking towards him.
When Zhou Helan came, he still had a bag of buns in his hand.
Seeing Chu Yao standing there, Zhou Helan hurried forward a few steps, handed the bun to him, and asked, "How is it? Did you gain anything?"
Chu Yao shook his head, "Confiscate the harvest."
Also got scolded.
"So mournful?" Zhou Helan raised his eyebrows, and handed him the bun, "Don't worry, it's only the first day here, and we've reached this point, and it's not a matter of minutes to solve the case."
Chu Yao took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun and thought as he walked forward, he wasn't mourning, but saw Grandpa Chen thinking of his own grandfather.
When he was in a coma, grandpa would often cry quietly to him who was unconscious when he was alone. The heart of the older generation really loves the younger generation.
Chen Anyan made a terrible death, but never thought that his parents were not around, and his grandfather was the only relative in the world. What would happen to his grandfather after he died?
"By the way, Captain Gu told me just now that there are many photos of Chen Anyan's dead body on the roof of the building on the Internet. The photos are spreading too fast and they may not be able to hold them down. They plan to release them at another date."
Zhou Helan said: "But I am afraid that the public will panic after the announcement, so I want to solve the case here as soon as possible."
Chu Yao nodded, "Yes."
Now that the Internet is so developed, it is indeed possible to suppress the deletion of the entire network, but if it exists, someone has seen it, and when the time comes to chat with friends in private, it still cannot be blocked.
After eating two more mouthfuls of buns, Chu Yao suddenly froze.
Zhou Helan stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes, "What's wrong?"
Chu Yao asked: "This news hasn't been announced yet, so does Chen Anyan's family know?"
Zhou Helan said: "I don't know, no one knows except Chen Anyan's wife."
Chu Yao put down the steamed stuffed bun, and asked again: "You said, under what circumstances would people put black and white photos of juniors at home?"
Zhou Helan laughed, looking at Chu Yao's face, he secretly thought young, and he said in a sophisticated way: "Then you don't have to ask, of course it's only when people die."
Chu Yao got up suddenly, and ran towards Grandpa Chen's house without saying a word.
How did Grandpa Chen know that Chen Anyan was dead? !
"What are you running for?" Zhou Helan hurried to catch up, and Chu Yao was so startled that he almost didn't keep up.
While running, Chu Yao said, "Grandpa Chen's house has black and white photos of Chen Anyan. I suspect that Grandpa Chen already knows that Chen Anyan is dead."
Zhou Helan said: "This is impossible." The news has not been announced to the public, and the only relative who knows is Yan Xiaorong, but she is still in the situation.
Chu Yao didn't give an explanation, but asked him: "What do you think is the first thing that comes to mind when a person is desperate?"
Zhou Helan didn't know either, so he casually said, "Go home?"
After he finished speaking, he laughed himself, looking for his parents.
Immediately he stopped abruptly.
Chen Anyan might come back to find Grandpa Chen!
That's why Grandpa Chen knew that Chen Anyan was dead!
But... what is there to worry about?
"I don't know when Chen Anyan will come back." Zhou Helan said, "Don't run away, you may not see Chen Anyan if you go now, you should have run away long ago."
Chu Yao said: "The black and white photo I saw was covered with a piece of red paper and disguised as a normal photo. Grandpa Chen didn't need to do such a thing. I suspect..."
Zhou Helan's eyes widened suddenly, and he said in disbelief: "No, it's impossible?! Chen Anyan was so mad that he attacked his grandfather?!"
If it was someone else, Chu Yao might hesitate, but if it was Chen Anyan, Chu Yao was really not sure.
One must know that Chen Anyan didn't even let herself go.
Chu Yao ran to the door and knocked, but this time there was no response for a long time.
Could it be that he was trying to scare the snake away?
Chu Yao turned his head to look at the wall next to him. Just as he was about to climb over the wall and enter, the door opened.
Grandpa Chen stood at the door, looking at Chu Yao with an expression of disgust visible to the naked eye, "What are you doing here again?"
Chu Yao glanced at the old man's hand, the palm of his right hand had obvious scald marks, and it was bright red.
Sensing his gaze, Grandpa Chen moved his arms back stiffly.
Chu Yao asked, "Grandpa Chen, what happened to your hand?"
Grandpa Chen said angrily, "It's none of your business."
Chu Yao smiled, "When I came here for the first time, Grandpa's hands seemed to be fine?"
"What do you want to say?" Grandpa Chen glared at him, "It was scalded when I poured hot water for you!"
"I don't think it's scalded by hot water." Chu Yao slowly lowered his eyes, looked at the hand on his back that was trying to hide, and said coldly, "It looks like it was burned by a talisman."
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Grandpa Chen was furious, "Are you trying to say that I'm lying? It's just that I'm hurt, so I have nothing to lie about!"
Grandpa Chen's hands were shaking with anger, "And the talisman you mentioned, I've never heard of it, and I don't even know what it is."
"Of course you don't know. If you knew, you wouldn't deliberately cover the black and white photos with red paper. Because of the existence of talismans, you can't destroy the photos, because the photo frames leave the shelf for too long and the array on the shelf will automatically operate. .”
Seeing Grandpa Chen's sudden change of expression, Chu Yao knew that he had guessed right.
Chen Anyan didn't take the photo away directly, but tried his best to cover it with red paper, because of the tie between the formation and the eyes of the formation.
Chu Yao said again: "And...you will be burned by the purification talisman on the photo if you hold the photo frame in your hand. After a long time, you will be saved without doing anything."
Grandpa Chen said, "Don't frame me, old man."
Chu Yao looked at him indifferently, "Chen Anyan."
Grandpa Chen froze all of a sudden.
"The formation on the cabinet was specially set up by Grandpa Chen to remind people later that the Spirit Purification Talisman is a high-level talisman, and that blessing is enough to purify you and allow you to reincarnate into reincarnation."
"Your grandfather prepared so much for you..."
Anticipating Chu Yao's long speech, Chen Anyan interrupted first, and he roared, "He just wants me to disappear! He doesn't want me to live!"
"The high-level Purifying Spirit Talisman is a spirit-for-soul exchange. Grandpa Chen traded his own soul with the Talisman Master in exchange for it!"
Chen Anyan suddenly opened his eyes wide, his gaze was dazed.
Seeing the astonished appearance of the other party, Chu Yao couldn't help sighing, and said lightly: "Even if you don't kill him, he won't live long."
