Chapter 77 A New Discovery

But Jiang Kefan was so full of things in his heart that he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning.He lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, and as time passed, his anger disappeared.

After the anger dissipated, I was inexplicably confused.In fact, he also didn't understand why he was so irritable.Maybe it's because he confides in Ruan Su, but Ruan Su is always secretive, hiding something and not wanting to tell him.

This feeling of unequal information is always very uncomfortable.

Jiang Kefan was in a daze, and later found that the night was already very dark when he was tossing and turning, and Ruan Su, who was sitting by the window sill, seemed to be still motionless.

Jiang Kefan turned over tentatively, and found that Ruan Su was sitting on the window sill like a statue, his nose was a little red from the night wind, but he didn't seem to have the slightest intention to move away.The gentle moonlight shone on his eyelashes, making the outline of his skin softer.

His eyes wandered, not knowing what to think.

But Jiang Kefan didn't want to see him, so he turned his back.But seeing no one in front of him made him feel even more depressed.

In the end, Jiang Kefan got up from the bed, "...forget it, I can't sleep."

"..."

"It's almost there, let's go find Peng Ming."

Ruan Su looked at the night outside the window, and it was almost the same, so she got up, "Let's go."

The two of them tidied up briefly, and when they were about to go out-there was a sudden sharp sound of grinding claws outside the window eaves.With a "meow", a group of black balls landed flexibly on the windowsill.

Ruan Su raised half of his body and recognized that it was the black cat he rescued a few hours ago.

Actually followed here.

Ruan Su stretched out his hand to the black cat, and the cat immediately walked towards him with its tail up, rubbing his palm affectionately.

"Meow~"

Jiang Kefan was stunned, "Since when did you keep pets?"

"Misunderstanding, I saved it before."

Ruan Su explained casually, let go of her hand, and didn't take it to heart.The next second, the cat next to him suddenly neighed like a restless cat.

"what happened?"

Ruan Su reached out and rubbed its ears soothingly, but the black cat jumped off the window sill and rushed into the night.

The cat's stamina swept to the window, and the window slammed on Ruan Su's body.Ruan Su took a step back subconsciously, without noticing, she leaned half of her body out of the window.He struggled to pull the window sill, but because his right hand hadn't fully recovered, he lost his strength—he rolled directly down to the second floor!

"Grass!"

There was a rolling sound downstairs, and Jiang Kefan was so frightened that he rushed to the window sill without even wearing his shoes, "Ruan Su!?"

Fortunately, the second floor of the earthen house was not too high.Ruan Su landed on his back and landed on the grass fairly steadily. He stretched out a hand from among the broken leaves and made an "ok" gesture.

And the black cat had already disappeared into the night, and it was unknown where it went to patrol again.

Jiang Kefan blinked, and suddenly found that there seemed to be something hidden beside the collapsed haystack on the first floor.

It was a little far away, so he couldn't see clearly.But with the moonlight, he could vaguely distinguish the curved outline of that thing.

Seems to be--

Jiang Kefan was startled, immediately put on his shoes and pushed the door out, staggering all the way down the stairs and into the backyard.Ruan Su also stumbled up from the haystack at this time, seeing him so flustered, asked suspiciously: "I'm fine, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

"There's something!" Jiang Kefan pushed aside layers of haystacks, "There's something behind you, we all missed it."

Unexpectedly, the cat's kick accidentally gave them a reminder.The two partnered together and found that hidden corner in the dark.After pulling away layers of broken grass, the scene of that thing was immediately clearly exposed in front of the two of them.

It turned out to be a dry well.

The location of the well was very particular. It was in a dead corner of the house and yard, and with the accumulation of fallen leaves and dead branches, it almost escaped their eyes.As soon as the grass next to the well was pulled away, a strong stench of livestock body came to the face.

"Couldn't this be the place where the old man threw dead chicken corpses?"

Ruan Su looked around for a while, then found a thick straight branch, stuck it into the dry well, and fiddled with it twice.The bottom of the well was very deep, and there was a stench coming from one side. It smelled a bit like the stench of livestock, mixed with the smell of rotting plants.Ruan Su looked down again, and found that there were many leaves and branches hidden inside. It should be that the garbage was dumped here directly when taking care of the backyard.

"It seems..." Jiang Kefan frowned, "It seems nothing special."

The two looked at each other, and finally decided to restore the scene first.

After piled weeds on the mouth of the dry well again, the two sneaked into the street by night, looking for Peng Ming everywhere.But there was no one on the street, only the weeds were blown by the wind by chance. The "Day of Crossing the Tribulation" is approaching, and the ancient village is desolate.

"But what about the others?" Jiang Kefan was still puzzled, "Aren't there 10 of us?"

Ruan Su thought for a while: "It's hard to say. The main god has upgraded the system... Maybe the number of players has also been reduced."

But it shouldn't turn into a game of two people all of a sudden, right?

Jiang Kefan clenched the hair in his hand, at least Peng Ming...should be with them!

But after searching in vain all night, they found nothing in the end.So much so that when they got home, both of them were so tired that they fell asleep.

Ruan Su woke up early the next morning.He fell asleep lying on the tea table yesterday, and when he woke up early in the morning, he saw Jiang Kefan still lying on the bed, sleeping peacefully. It seemed that he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.

Ruan Su didn't have the heart to wake him up, and went downstairs by herself.

As soon as he went down the stairs, the voice of Lao C who was busy in the kitchen came from the living room.I thought that the movement yesterday would wake him up, but I didn't expect that Lao C's sleep quality was good. Once the door was closed, he slept smoothly until dawn.When Ruan Su and Jiang Kefan tiptoed back in the middle of the night last night, they found Lao Bing's bedroom door was still closed, and there were occasional light snoring sounds from inside.

However, fortunately, Lao Bing slept deeply and didn't know about it, otherwise he would be shocked and it would be difficult for them to explain.

At this time, Lao C also saw him, and poked his head out from the kitchen: "Good morning, little brother! Did you rest well yesterday?"

Ruan Su nodded politely: "Very good, thank you for your concern."

"Breakfast will be ready soon, let's sit and rest first."

Ruan Su came to the bathroom, intending to wash her face.When she came out refreshed, Ruan Su stood in the backyard and blew on the wind, but finally couldn't hold back, and went to the corner of the backyard based on her impression, and touched the weeds to see that the well was still there.

Yesterday's discovery was confirmed again, Ruan Su frowned, feeling weird for some reason.

He was thinking about it, when a voice suddenly came from far behind: "Have a good breakfast! Little brother, hurry up and ask your companions to come down for dinner together!"

"understood!"

Ruan Su also responded, and temporarily looked away, turned and left the yard, walked up the stairwell, intending to wake Jiang Kefan up.

But this time, when he passed the stairwell, he couldn't help but pause.

In the shadows under the stairwell, something seemed to be half hidden.When I took a closer look, I found a lot of old furniture piled up there, including a wooden dresser.

dresser?

How could there be a dressing table in the home of an old man living alone?

Ruan Su couldn't help approaching it curiously, and felt that there were some female cosmetics such as rouge and black powder inside.

He withdrew his hand, returned the things to the original place, then returned to the entrance of the corridor, and went upstairs to wake up Jiang Kefan.

Early is a few steamed buns with eggs.After eating half full, Ruan Su asked Lao Bing about his doubts.

"Uncle Bing, what's the usual weather like here?"

"Weather?" Lao B thought about it carefully, "It's usually quite foggy here. In the past month, it has always been foggy, but it rarely rains. If there is rain, it will be misty and light. Not to mention. Why do you suddenly ask such a question?"

It hasn't rained heavily... Ruan Su thought for a moment, and then explained, "I found a well in your backyard yesterday, and it seems to have dried up."

When Jiang Kefan heard him bring up this topic, he couldn't help waiting intently for Lao C to answer.

Lao C thought for a while, and finally remembered, and replied, "Oh...that is an insignificant abandoned well. Many years ago, the village was short of water, so it dried up naturally. Now I have used it to pile leaves. .”

Ruan Su nodded.Lao Bing suddenly changed the subject, and warned earnestly, "Besides, from today onwards is the 'Crossing Tribulation Day'. During these three days and nights, you must stay behind closed doors and be careful. Last night... I heard you There seems to be some movement, what happened?"

Ruan Su thought for a while, then replied, "It's a cat...a cat jumped onto the window sill."

Lao C smiled and explained: "There are indeed a lot of wild cats here. It is common for them to jump into people's houses and pick up some leftovers to eat. Please don't be offended."

Ruan Su said hello, paused for a while, and then brought up another topic.

"Aside from your son, did anyone else live in this house?"

Lao C paused, "Well... I did live there. But how did you know?"

While peeling the eggs, Ruan Su mentioned casually, "That's right, when I woke up last night, I found some women's clothing and jewelry in the cabinet in the stairwell..."

Lao B was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile.

"Brother, you are really careful. That's right, it belongs to my daughter-in-law Fang Fei."

"Before the accident, the three of us did live together. But after my son disappeared, in order to avoid suspicion, my daughter-in-law moved out, and now she is living with the shop assistants in the family shop. Speaking of which, I also have a lot of problems. Haven't seen her in a long time."

Jiang Kefan and Ruan Su were stunned at the same time, "Shop?"

"Yes," Lao B was startled, and then responded with a dry smile, "Ah, thanks to me, I forgot to mention this to you."

"My son and his wife set up a sugar shop by himself, selling some snacks, dried fruits, etc., a small business. I visit the shop occasionally, and the two of them manage the business pretty well."

Ruan Su understood at this moment, and it made sense for him to notice that there were sugar boxes everywhere in Lao Bing's house.

At this time, the eggs in my hand just finished peeling.Ruan Su naturally put the boiled eggs into Jiang Kefan's bowl, and asked, "Excuse me, where is your daughter-in-law Fang Fei's sugar shop?"
