Chapter 420 Exploration

When Xiao Qin saw her grandfather, his body suddenly tensed. I seemed to have seen some beast.

"Grandpa, why are you back?" Xiao Qin asked with a stuttering stutter.

Xiao Qin's grandfather ignored Xiao Qin at all, but instead turned his eyes on Hu Qiu and me, staring at us tightly.

For some reason, under his eyes, I actually felt a heavy pressure.

I subconsciously placed my hands behind my back and quietly prepared for overprinting.

But after a while, Xiao Qin's grandfather suddenly grinned and smiled silly.

"Oh, the guests are here! Are you from the city?" Xiao Qin's grandfather greeted him enthusiastically.

The other party's reaction was really beyond my expectations, especially when he saw the honest smile on his face, he didn't look like an abnormal person no matter how he looked.

Hu Qiu quickly laughed, "Oh, you are Xiao Qin's grandfather, are you?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I am Xiao Qin's grandfather!" Xiao Qin replied with a smile.

In addition to being honest, there is also a hint of shyness in his smile, which is a simplicity that only people in the mountains have.

I couldn't help but frown slightly. Could it be that I was thinking too much?

"Hello, Grandpa, we are indeed from the city. Come and see Xiao Qin!" Hu Qiu continued to be polite with the other party.

"So it's Xiao Qin's friend? That's great!" Xiao Qin's grandfather seemed very happy.

"Yes, we have a good relationship!" Hu Qiu said.

Speaking of this, I saw Xiao Qin's face paler, his body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and suddenly there was a hint of resentment in his eyes when he looked at Hu Qiu.

She was actually scared!

Why is she afraid?

I am increasingly confused, but I understand one truth: if things are abnormal, there will be evil.

This village must have an unknown secret, and this secret is likely to be related to Xiao Qin's grandfather.

At this time, the polite words of both sides were almost done. Xiao Qin's grandfather quickly and enthusiastically invited us in.

"Hurry, please sit inside and rest!"

As he said that, he turned to look at Xiao Qin, "You go find your second master and ask him to slaughter the sheep in the mountains and keep them for your friends to entertain you at night. They are distinguished guests, so don't you neglect them?"

Xiao Qin was obviously stunned for a moment, with a look of panic on his face, and flashed by, and finally he gritted his teeth and said:

"Grandpa, isn't there no one left in our village to spend the night?"

"You kid didn't keep anyone in the past because no one came on weekdays. These two are your good friends. They come to see us from so far away and have to entertain others. Besides, there is so much snow outside, how can you leave!"

"Go quickly!"

"I, I...I understand!"

Xiao Qin suddenly stuttered, she glanced at us in a complicated way, turned around and left.

In her eyes, I saw sympathy and even a faint feeling of unbearance.

Soon, Xiao Qin's grandfather invited us into the main hall, and the three of them sat down with guests and hosts. Xiao Qin's grandfather brought us the leftover rice dumplings we had just eaten.

Hu Qiu was not polite either. He first peeled a rice dumpling and handed it to me, then peeled one by himself, and started eating it with relish.

The old man looked at us eating rice dumplings and smiled silly, looking like a simple mountain man.

"Girl, thank you for coming to see my granddaughter. Didn't you cause trouble for you?" Grandpa Xiao Qin asked.

"No, Xiao Qin is quite sensible!" Hu Qiu said.

"That's good, that's good. Since you are here, let's have a good rest for two days. I'd better serve as the landlord and treat you well." The old man said with a sincere look.

"This is not suitable, right?" Hu Qiu said politely.

"Oh, there is nothing wrong with it. We are all real people in the mountains. We are not happy that you can stay!"

"So that's the case, we'll disturb you!" I interrupted Hu Qiu and agreed.

Hu Qiu glanced at me, and after the picture was very hot, he put the rice dumplings in his hand on the table, and then he reached out to take off his coat.

Because she was a little too big, she accidentally dropped the sachet sachet that had just been placed in her pocket.

Grandpa Xiao Qin was obviously stunned when he saw this sachet.

Then, I noticed that the expression on his face seemed to freeze for a moment, and a haze flashed through his eyes. Although it was quickly covered up by him, I saw it all in my eyes.

There is indeed something wrong with this capsule!

And this old man also has problems!

As for Xiao Qin, I feel there is a problem!

Now I seemed to understand a little why Xiao Qin took off the down jacket and hung it on the tree. Combined with what happened just now, she should be afraid of bringing the smell outside in.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look like Hu Qiu, trying to secretly reveal some information to him.

Unexpectedly, Hu Qiu just happened to look at me and secretly gave me a look.

I was slightly stunned and realized in an instant that I thought Hu Qiu was accidentally, but now it seems that she deliberately dropped the sachet.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart. Hu Qiu was indeed smarter than me. How could she not even think of something I could think of?

We passed our eyes in a flash. Xiao Qin's grandfather seemed to be thinking about something and did not notice our little movements.

Hu Qiu hung his clothes on a wooden chair and then asked in a pretended manner:

"Grandpa, I'm really curious. It's so cold outside, why are you so warm here? It's like a paradise."

Faced with Hu Qiu's sudden problem, the old man quickly smiled and explained.

"This place was left by our ancestors, and we don't know why this happens. However, some TV experts have been here before, saying that there is hot air underground and can emerge from the soil, so the winter here is not very cold!"

"Oh, it's true. I remember watching it on TV when I was a child, and the experts did say that." Hu Qiu said.

"Do you still remember the name of that expert?" Hu Qiu asked.

"No, I don't remember it, it's been many years!" Grandpa Xiao Qin said hurriedly.

Hu Qiu suddenly smiled and continued, "That's so regretful. I don't know where those experts have gone? I can't find anyone until now."

Xiao Qin's grandfather's face changed slightly, and then returned to normal.

I felt like the old man didn't tell the truth, otherwise he wouldn't have had this expression.

Hu Qiu obviously saw it too. She winked at me, and I immediately understood what she meant. This was what made me say hello to Baoer.

Without hesitation, I asked directly: "If the old man asks you something, you have to tell me the truth."

"What's the matter?" the old man asked with a smile.

"I have two friends who came here last night. One is thin and the other is short. They are not old. You should have seen them in their 20s, right?"

The old man's face changed slightly.

"Are you talking about those two young people? They are your friends!" The old man looked at me in surprise.

Hu Qiu and I were slightly stunned at the same time, but we didn't expect that he would admit it so easily.

"Yes, it's my friends. Where are they now?" I asked quickly.

A look of regret suddenly appeared on the old man's face. After hesitating for a moment, he said:

"I'm so sorry, something happened to you two friends!"

"What's wrong with them?" I suddenly became nervous.

The old man sighed and said apologetically: "They entered the village last night. They looked quite tired. They seemed to have been traveling a lot of roads. The people in our village even invited them to have a meal!"

" Then what?"

"We originally arranged for them to rest in the village. After all, there were no shops in front of the village and behind the village. There were many wild boars in the mountain, and they often came out to play at night, so we asked them to leave the next day. Unexpectedly, the two young people didn't listen at all. They secretly ran away after we fell asleep in the middle of the night."

"Run away? They left the village?" I immediately frowned.

"It's good to leave the village. They encountered a wild boar attack. We discovered it only when we heard the movement. Later, everyone from the village went out together, but no one was found until now."

When the old man said this, a deep self-blame appeared on his face.

"It's all my fault. If I had someone look at them, this wouldn't happen!"

Looking at the old man's guilty look, Hu Qiu and I were both stunned.
