Finally we are here. I thought my hometown was the poorest place, but now it seems that my knowledge is a little short.

There are some people walking around in many shops in front, some setting up stalls, and some drinking tea and chatting. It seems that people here are enjoying themselves.

No wonder, most of the people staying here are middle-aged people.

Maybe it’s because I still have strong feelings for this place that I didn’t leave. Most young people who hope to live a good life have left this place and gone to work outside. So this is almost a suitable place to live.

"Hey, what's going on?"

Suddenly I saw not far away, it seemed like a group of people wearing white clothes were coming.

"Dead people!"

At this time, the man next to him sighed.

"It's already the fifth one."

Those people seemed very sorry.

Everyone stared at the coffin behind them, as if they saw someone claiming their lives, and everyone's eyes showed panic.

"What happened?"

I asked the person next to me.

Those men were old men in their sixties, and they looked at us strangely, "Are you from outside the country?"

I nodded.

"It's strange, how come outsiders come to our place?"

Those people immediately started talking.

"Passing by, passing by."

I laughed.

"Hey, young man, this place is not for you. Look, five people have died in the past few days. Hey, really..."

The man wanted to say something, but was stopped by the person next to him.

There seems to be something taboo about it. I guess we are outsiders.

"Do you know what's going on?"

I asked Three Hands.

He touched his head and said, "Hey, it all happened in the past few days. Why didn't you know that these people are all from the mansion. It seems that five people died in one breath. It's really weird."

"Could it be an infectious disease?"

Xiao Zhang asked cautiously.

"No way?"

Why are they all from the old house?

The old house belongs to a large family, and it is said that it is one of the richest families in the township.

Although this township is not big, it has a lot of people, densely distributed in this plain, and is surrounded by mountains and rivers. They can fish and hunt, and they can live a self-sufficient life.

So it is true that we have no worries about food and clothing.

"Whether he died of illness or not, you can tell just by looking at the body."

Only then did I learn that Xiao Zhang was originally a graduate student in anatomy.

"However, if you dare to open the coffin, your lives will be taken." The three hands on the side were frightened and quickly stopped them.

Soon, the people carrying the coffin seemed to go up the mountain.

We decided to find the captain first. It seemed that the place was not very big. Maybe it was just because the signal was not good or the phone was lost that he did not contact us.

So we were a little relieved.

"Where did he go?"

I asked Three Hands.

"He was inquiring about Zhang Dachui's home at that time." The three hands seemed to hesitate, "This..."

"What's wrong?"

I asked.

"This Sledgehammer's house has been abandoned for a long time, so there is no one at all. But at that time, they didn't believe that they wanted to take a look, so I didn't follow them. I really don't know where they went. Don’t know anymore.”

Three Hands said.

"Let's go to his house."

Zhang Dachui's family only has one ancestral home.

Along the way, Three Hands told me about Zhang Dachui’s family. Originally, Zhang Dachui’s family was very poor, but it seemed to have improved somewhat in recent years.

It’s just that I haven’t seen Zhang Dachui in recent years.

After all, Zhang Dachui is the first college student to go out here, so everyone still has some impressions.

"Speaking of Zhang Dachui, it is said that he has a treasure at home."

This sentence of three hands attracts us.

"Baby, what baby?"

I asked.

"But they are all legends. I have never seen the specific treasure. Maybe it is just a worthless thing. After all, not many people have seen it."

Three Hands said.

I think if this kid had really seen it, the treasure would have fallen into his hands long ago.

Being able to steal the wallet from the captain without anyone noticing shows that his ability is extraordinary.

"But later, someone said that the treasure was his and that he was deceived by ancestor Zhang Dachui."

Three Hands said. "It seems that the person's ancestors belonged to a landowner, so everyone still believes it. It is said that the thing was dedicated to the ancestors and was sold by his son to Zhang Dachui."

"Is this really happening?"

I was suddenly connected to what I had recently learned, and it seemed that there was indeed something going on.

No wonder, the middle-aged man went to the city and said that Zhang Dachui had cheated Baobao.

Could it be that his unsatisfied son really sold the treasure to Zhang Dachui because his family was poor?

Soon, we arrived at Zhang Dachui’s residence.

But this place seems to have been abandoned for a long time.

Surrounded by some decaying houses.

Almost no one lives there anymore, even the beams have collapsed, and there are no people anywhere. Weeds have grown all over the house, and the walls are covered with moss.
