Chapter 229 Looks a bit like a smoke bomb
From the moment Su Niannian saw Gu Nan and hugged him, she finally felt relieved.
Let Gu Nan hold herself.
After Gu Nan picked up Su Niannian, he walked to the kang and placed Su Niannian on the kang.
The whole person leaned forward.
"What? Are you so worried about me?" Gu Nan's low voice appeared in Su Niannian's ears.
Because the distance was so close, Gu Nan's warm breath when he spoke fell on Su Niannian's ears.
"Nonsense!" Su Niannian turned her head and became a little shy.
"You keep saying that you want me to go back to the army. Once I return to the army, what I will encounter will be ten or a hundred times more dangerous than tonight." Gu Nan's Adam's apple rolled, and every word he spoke fell into Su Niannian's ears.
Yes, after Gu Nan returns to the army, he will encounter many dangerous things.
Su Niannian became a little worried because of Gu Nan's words.
"You will protect yourself well, right?" Su Niannian put her arms around Gu Nan's neck and asked Gu Nan seriously.
Su Niannian's eyes were fixed on Gu Nan's eyes.
Gu Nan took advantage of the dim candlelight and gave Su Niannian a deep kiss on her lips.
"Yes." Gu Nan's voice was firm and confident, making Su Niannian feel extremely relieved.
Su Niannian tightened her arms, and Gu Nan's hands lost support, and he fell on Su Niannian.
"Gu Nan, you are really, really, really important to me. Please protect yourself well outside, okay?"
"I love you very much. If you die this time, I don't want to live anymore." When Su Niannian spoke, she felt her nose sour and tears quietly slipped from the corners of her eyes.
Gu Nan propped himself up, then looked into Su Niannian's eyes and carefully helped Su Niannian wipe away her tears.
He knew that Su Niannian loved him very much, and he loved Su Niannian the same way, but what did she mean by "if you die this time"?
"Silly girl, don't cry. And why did you say that if I died this time, you wouldn't live either?"
"Could it be that there was another time when I died?" Gu Nan thought for a moment and said jokingly.
When Su Niannian heard this, tears continued to flow.
Didn’t we have what happened last time? You don't know how I survived those thirty-seven years without you.
If I hadn't promised you, if I hadn't promised you that I would live a good life, I really wouldn't have been able to survive those long thirty-seven years.
Su Niannian's eyes were red and she hugged Gu Nan tightly.
"Silly girl, what's wrong with you?" Gu Nan felt Su Niannian's hug with all her strength.
I don’t know what happened, but all I can do now is to comfort the little girl in my arms.
Su Niannian hugged Gu Nan and felt Gu Nan's body temperature.
In this life, no matter what, she will protect this man with her life.
It was as if he had used everything to protect himself in his previous life.
No, even if it was not the last life, even if it was only this life, her Gu Nan had always loved her so much.
No matter what happens, her Gu Nan loves her with his life.
"I love you so much." Su Niannian's gentle voice echoed in Gu Nan's ears.
Gu Nan felt Su Niannian rubbing his neck gently.
"I love you too, so much." Gu Nan's deep voice also rang in Su Niannian's ears.
The temperature in the room slowly rose.
A little sauce brewing...
It was already two hours later.
Gu Nan brought some warm water and carefully helped Su Niannian clean herself.
Su Niannian felt sore in her thighs and waist.
He couldn't help but glare at Gu Nan.
Gu Nan also knew that he had used too much force and couldn't help scratching his head.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how did the visit to the village chief's house go?" Su Niannian then thought of the important matter.
Gu Nan sat next to Su Niannian, put his arms around Su Niannian, and put Su Niannian in his arms again.
"The stove at the very edge of the kitchen shows no signs of having been used, and the stove pit is also sealed." Gu Nan lowered his voice and whispered in Su Niannian's ear.
"Are there any movable bricks that can be taken down to see what's inside?" Su Niannian turned her head and asked Gu Nan.
"No, it's all sealed with cement." Gu Nan replied.
"Not only that, I also sneaked into their main room." Gu Nan continued.
Su Niannian couldn't help but widen her eyes. This bastard of hers was really brave.
He even dared to sneak into the main room!
You know, Li Guofu's family has quite a few people.
Li Guofu had three sons and one daughter. His daughter married into the county, and two of his three sons are married, while one is unmarried.
All live together.
In addition, there are wives, daughters-in-law, grandchildren...
With so many people living in that yard, it would have been fine if Gu Nan had just sneaked into the kitchen at night, but he even dared to go to the main room.
"What are you doing in the main hall? Even if there are any cultural relics, they would not be placed in the main hall openly, right?" Su Niannian asked Gu Nan curiously.
"I'm going to see if there is a cellar." Gu Nan continued.
Now, Su Niannian understood something.
In rural Northeast China, generally speaking, almost every household has a cellar.
Used to store vegetables for the winter.
For example, potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, cabbages and so on.
The entrance to the cellar is usually located in the main room. After all, no one would put the entrance to the cellar in the bedroom.
There are cases where the cellar entrance is located in the yard, but that situation is relatively rare.
I would also worry about problems like rain or snow in the yard.
"Did you find anything?" Su Niannian asked Gu Nan curiously.
Gu Nan hugged Su Niannian and told her everything he had found out at Li Guofu's house.
Su Niannian opened her eyes wide.
"This... is too weird!" Su Niannian was surprised when she heard this.
It turned out that Gu Nan had discovered two entrances to the cellar in the main hall.
One of them is very hidden.
But after opening the blanket covering it, there was actually an iron plate underneath, and it was locked.
Gu Nan was afraid of alarming them, so he did not open the lock and go down to check.
The other conspicuous cellar is very ordinary.
After Gu Nan opened the wooden board covering it, he could see what was inside.
Mostly there were some grains, but the edge of the cellar was actually built with a circle of blue bricks.
This can provide a good moisture-proof effect, but of course it is also expensive.
"So, what should we do now?" Su Niannian leaned on Gu Nan and asked Gu Nan.
"If we want to continue the investigation, I'm afraid we can't do it secretly anymore, so we still have to tell Zhou Qishan and ask him what he thinks."
"I think there are already a lot of suspicious points now. Li Guofu is a major suspect. We can send people in to arrest him directly." Gu Nan said.
