Hearing this, Long Xingtu pondered for a moment and asked, "What did your father do when he went out that night?"
With whom?
According to the villagers' confessions, your father borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, and after drinking, he had an accident and fell off the cliff!
”The dumb girl shook her head, "I was still young at the time, and my father didn't elaborate, just told me to stay at home and not wait for him."
I don't know exactly what happened. ”"What about Yun Niang?
The villagers said that the eldest prince Dai Yu has a good relationship with your father, studying together, and taking the test together, while Yun Niang has a bad relationship with your mother, and the two never communicate. ”"Between Aunt Yun and my mother, in fact, the relationship is not particularly bad, but it is not a good person, but it is not particularly good.After my father's accident, Aunt Yun would secretly come to see me in the middle of the night every few days and bring me some food, but Aunt Yun wouldn't let me tell anyone, she taught me to be careful in the village and to beware of the men in the village. ”"Beware of men?"
Long Xingtu's eyebrows jumped, "Is it because your mother was harmed by a man?"
”The dumb girl shook her head again, "I don't know, Aunt Yun didn't tell me." ”Long Xingtu's gaze became sharper and sharper as he stared at the little girl, "Then before I dripped blood and tested my bones this morning, you knew that the white bones in the waste well were your mother, right?"
”"I'm not sure, Aunt Yun only said that my mother was killed by bad people, but she didn't say that my mother died, I ......
I've always believed that my mother really ran away with another man, and I'm waiting for my mother to come back. ”The mute girl sobbed low again.Long Xingtu raised his hand and stroked her little head, and his tone softened, "Do you really believe that your mother is misbehaving?"
”The mute girl exclaimed, "I don't believe it!
My mother and my father have a good relationship, my mother loves me very much, every piece of clothing I wear, is sewn by my mother's own hands, my mother also said, when I grow up, I will take me to the capital to watch the fireworks!
”Long Xingtu looked at the weak girl in front of her in a daze, time seemed to pull her back to twelve years ago, she was also so desperate and looking forward to the fact that her relatives were still alive......
The dumb girl grabbed her sleeve, "Master Long, I want to go to Aunt Yun, I want to ask Aunt Yun clearly, is that white bone sure to be my mother?"
But I don't dare to enter the gate of Lizheng's house, please help me!
”"Don't worry, I'll help you ask Yun Niang."
Long Xingtu slowly suppressed his emotions, leaned over and looked at the little girl, "Dumb girl, how long have you been here?"
Did you see anyone else show up other than me?
”The dumb girl wiped her tears and said, "I just came, I wanted to enter through the back door, but the back door was locked, so I thought about climbing over the wall to get in, but as soon as I got on the wall, I saw Master Long, I was afraid that you would be angry, so I quickly hid in the tree." ”"Don't you see anyone else?""
Nope.""
By the way, how did you get out?
Isn't Sister Zhong looking at you?
”"My father was sick again, and Sister Zhong was busy taking care of my father, so I took the opportunity to go to the thatched house and secretly ran out over the wall.""
Okay, you go back first, it's not safe here.""
Oh, good."
After sending away the dumb girl, Long Xingtu carefully searched the vicinity again, and it was basically certain that the old patriarch had been here before he died, but except for the footprints of the dumb girl, no trace of the third person was found at the scene!
So, what is the old patriarch doing here alone?
And what does the acacia leaf on the window lattice mean?
Could it be that the old patriarch entered the room through the window?
But he is seventy-five years old, and he is not a martial arts practitioner, can he do it?
