Qin Hairui widened his eyes and asked in horror: "People? Who?"
Qin Shu poured out all the stones in the cloth bag and handed it over with the exquisitely crafted cloth bag.
"Look, this bag has a very good texture. It looks like it's made of silk."
Qin Hairui took the cloth bag and examined it carefully. Even though it was wet, it felt very smooth.
"You mean, the dark river leads to other villages?"
Qin Shu shook her head: "It's unlikely! The rope I used to detect underwater was only a hundred meters long. It couldn't even reach Yushan Village, let alone other villages that are farther away."
Qin Hairui opened his mouth slightly, his scalp exploded in an instant, and he felt hairy all over.
He stammered, "Who would have tied this bag to the rope?"
Very good question!
This is what Qin Shu wants to know too!
Qin Shu did not answer, but held a stone and quietly absorbed spiritual energy.
Rich spiritual energy flowed through the palm of his hand and rapidly flowed into his whole body.
The spiritual energy contained in this small stone is even stronger than that of the palm-sized imperial green jade.
Qin Hairui waited a long time without getting an answer, and asked again: "Ah Shu, what exactly is the vitality recorded by our ancestors? Could it be the flesh and blood of a ferocious beast?"
Qin Shu shook her head: "I don't know either. If you want to know the truth, you can only go to the dark river to see what's going on."
Qin Hairui stopped him without thinking: "No! This is too dangerous!"
"You've seen it before. Once the whirlpool at the entrance of the dark river gets bigger, it will suck people in."
Qin Shu pushed back the hair that was sticking to her forehead, and looked at Qin Hairui quietly with her charming eyes.
"Brother, I want to live. Even if it's a dangerous place, I'm going to try it!"
Qin Hairui opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
“Boom!!”
Suddenly, rumbled thunder in the sky.
Qin Shu looked at the night sky and found that the stars had disappeared. Lightning flashed across the night sky, instantly illuminating the entire valley.
She stood up and said, "It's going to rain. Let's go down the mountain quickly and come back to explore after the rain stops."
After changing their clothes, the brother and sister hurried down the mountain.
As soon as they got home, the drizzle suddenly turned into heavy rain.
"You guys are finally back. I made breakfast. Eat it while it's hot."
Mother Qin brought two bowls of porridge, placed them on the table in the living room, and greeted the brother and sister.
Qin Hairui had been busy for so long that his stomach was growling with hunger. He grabbed the meat bun on the table and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
Qin Shu sat opposite, sipping her porridge: "Brother, why don't you see sister-in-law?"
"She went back to the city to study and only comes back every Saturday and Sunday."
"Are you guys together more often than apart?"
"It's OK. I'm usually in the city, so I can see you every day if I want."
Qin Shu lowered her eyelashes slightly and asked quietly, "When are you and sister-in-law going to have a baby?"
“Cough cough cough…”
Qin Hairui choked unexpectedly and started coughing violently.
He glared at his sister with resentment: "I've only been married for a short time, and you're already urging me to have a baby."
Qin Shu glanced at her expectant mother and said with a smile, "Mom and Dad have been waiting to hold their grandchildren for a long time."
Qin Hairui drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, suppressed the discomfort in his throat, and said hesitantly:
"Let it take its course. Jingxian is still young."
Qin Shu nodded thoughtfully: "Indeed, it's okay to wait another year. When I was pregnant, I was about the same age as my sister-in-law."
Qin Hairui was speechless: "Don't worry about me, worry about your own situation. You have seen how dangerous the entrance to the dark river is. Next time we explore, we must be fully prepared."
Li Rong asked nervously, "Ah Shu, what did you gain from going to the back mountain?"
Qin Shu said softly, "We have some gains, but the entrance to the underground river is too small. If we want to find the life force recorded by our ancestors, we will probably have to go there again after a while."
In fact, she wasn't very sure, she was just trying to comfort Qin's mother.
Li Rong clasped her hands together and said, "That's good. Your father didn't sleep all night and knelt down in the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors. I hope everything goes well for you."
"Sister Arong, why are you telling these things to the child?"
Qin Jianguo walked into the living room wearing a raincoat, looking a little uncomfortable.
"You haven't done anything shameful, so why don't you tell me?"
Li Rong stood up, took the wet raincoat and hung it on the wooden door.
"I didn't say no." Qin Jianguo saw that his wife was unhappy and quickly changed his tone.
He handed the small cloth bag in his arms to Qin Shu, who was looking at him eagerly, and said, “After you left, I remembered that your grandfather was a bit nervous for a while before he passed away.
The old man was always flipping through the ancestral books. I remember that he often flipped through these books. After the old man passed away, I was buried with him. There may be some important records in them. You can take them back and study them. "
Qin Hairui: "Dad! Did you dig up Grandpa's grave?"
Qin Shu: "Did this book come out of grandpa's coffin?"
The brother and sister exclaimed almost at the same time.
Qin Jianguo coughed dryly, his eyes dodging: "The open-air graves are all empty, and I can't be considered to be digging the old man's grave."
He admitted that he dug up his grandfather's grave!
Qin Shu and Qin Hairui looked at each other and recalled the time when they dug up their ancestral graves several years ago.
Qin Jianguo suddenly frowned and said sternly: "Don't talk about me. Didn't you dig up the graves of the Qin family's ancestors? You are all the same. Don't laugh at anyone!"
Li Rong tugged at her husband's sleeve: "Come on, the kids just came back from outside and are eating a hot meal, and you're still being mean to them!"
The strict father attitude that Qin Jianguo had put on instantly became weak.
"You just didn't speak for me, you just protected them!"
Li Rong said nothing and stuffed a meat bun into Qin's father's mouth.
"Eat it quickly, it will get cold soon."
Qin Shu was flipping through the old books that Qin's father had brought back at the dinner table.
The things recorded above were very unfamiliar, and Qin Shu couldn't find any clue for a moment.
"Dad, thank you for your hard work. I'll take this book back and study it."
"Go ahead, your eyes are almost like pandas, go back and get some sleep."
Qin Shu took the lead: "You guys continue eating, I'll go back to my room first."
She turned and left, and at the bedroom door, she ran into Ah Hua Sao, who looked haggard.
"Madam, this is your phone. The eldest young master called in the early morning and I answered it without permission."
Qin Shu looked at Ahua's expression and her heart beat faster.
She asked in a tense voice: "What did you say to Xie Lanzhi?"
How much does Sister Hua know about the gunfight that happened last night, the conversation with her eldest brother outside the airport, and the showdown with her family about her rebirth?
Qin Shu held her breath and stared at Sister Hua.
The latter showed a stiff smile: "I reported to the eldest master that you, Master Chen, and the young lady are all asleep. I will call you back when you wake up."
Qin Shu's anxious heart suddenly relaxed.
As long as it’s not exposed!
She was afraid that she would not even have any underwear left at Xie Lanzhi's place.
"I see, thank you—"
Qin Shu thanked Ahuasao and reached out for her cell phone, but found nothing.
