Chapter 77 Chapter 18 Gesture Secret Words

When Huang Dejun turned his head, he hurriedly gave me an OK gesture, and then he was taken away by Lao Yan.In the 1990s, not many people were familiar with Western culture. Like Huang Dejun, who lived deep in an ancient house and specialized in playing tricks, how could he make such Western gestures?You must know that the relatively high-tech things in Huangcuoli are only tape recorders, and he doesn't have a TV, so how can he get in touch with Western culture. I stood there in a daze, wondering what Huang Dejun's gesture meant. Why did he say OK to me?Or the sign language that is not OK, because Huang Dejun is a mute, so he may sign language, does the sign language of OK have other meanings in sign language?But I heard Huang Dejun talking just now, and called "Lu Jianxin". Since he can speak, there is no need to learn sign language.Now I can't ask Huang Dejun in front of my uncle, otherwise I will harm Huang Dejun.

After Lao Yan took him away, I thought about it again, but I couldn't think of any tricks.I stood with my arms folded, and stepped on the stone bricks a few times, but I couldn't find the location of the basement. There was no strange place on the ground, let alone the hidden door of the mechanism.However, when the dead chicken appeared on the first day, it left a few scratches. When I looked there, I always felt that it reminded me of one thing.I knelt down to look at the scratches, and kicked hard on the stone brick, thinking that there would be a switch underneath to open the basement, but it turned out to be in vain.

I was alone like a lunatic, and found that it was useless to look around, so I simply stopped looking for the mysterious basement.If the storm came, and my uncle was so afraid of death, he would definitely hide in the basement, instead of sitting in the house so stupidly waiting to die.I'll be able to find the basement if I just keep up, maybe the entrance is somewhere else, not outside the main hall. When I returned to the Hucuo, I saw that the three cousins ​​had closed the door, and I was leaving in less than three days, so I decided to go to the second cousin to catch up and say goodbye in advance.Unexpectedly, the second cousin was not in the room. He and the little cousin were talking in the big brother's room, and they seemed to be discussing the spread of the fisher girl's curse.It's not good for me to intervene at this time, otherwise the first cousin and the younger cousin will criticize the second cousin again, so I plan to find Mu Qingxiang.

I retreated from the second cousin's door, and when I passed Lao Yan's room, I suddenly froze.Almost all the rooms in Huangcuoli were unlocked, even the door of the eldest uncle was unlocked, but Lao Yan's room was locked with a big lock.I couldn't help wondering if there was any treasure in Lao Yan's room. The uncle did not allow the three children to lock the door, but allowed a servant to lock the door.I resisted the urge to break in, and at the same time remembered that my little cousin had said that my uncle's will was to be kept by Lao Yan, and it was likely that the will was in the room, so Lao Yan had the right to lock the door.

Is there anything special about that will, why is it so cautious, is there anything surprising about it? At this time, Mu Qingxiang came out from the opposite room of the Nursery, and when she saw me tiptoeing around, she shook her head, not knowing whether she was disappointed with me or telling me not to think about it.I was just curious, I never thought about picking the lock and sneaking in. I suffered a lot in my uncle's room, and I learned how to be good.Seeing Mu Qingxiang standing opposite, staring at me intently, I walked over like a child who did something wrong, for fear that she would scold me again.

Mu Qingxiang didn't blame me, she didn't ask what I was doing just now, after I approached, she said: "Have a good rest, go to a place with me at night." "Going to learn how to recognize tea with eyes closed?" I asked. "No, you don't need to learn now. Since your uncle keeps using excuses to drive you away, it's useless even if you win. Let's use other methods to get him to tell the truth." Mu Qingxiang said to me. I was relieved, it was less stressful not to learn it right away, this kind of kung fu is hard to learn without many years of experience.The sea breeze was too strong outside, I was afraid that Mu Qingxiang would catch a cold, so I asked her to go back to the room and talk about it in detail.As soon as I entered the room, I hurriedly told Mu Qingxiang everything about Huang Dejun's ability to talk and his gestures.But Mu Qingxiang wasn't surprised at all, she seemed to know about it a long time ago, and she smiled at me when she saw that I was a little disappointed.In the past, Mu Qingxiang seldom smiled and was colder than an iceberg. When I saw her smiling at me, I felt that the whole room was full of sunshine.Mu Qingxiang only smiled for a second or two, and soon returned to her usual demeanor.

The sea breeze made the windows tremble. I think my little cousin was right to worry. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Huangcuo to pass the test of this storm safely.Mu Qingxiang didn't care at all, she told me that as soon as this day passed, my uncle would tell me the location of the ancient city of Yuequan.The premise is that we must find out the secret of the great uncle and the truth behind the strange incident in Huangcuoli. Needless to say, Mu Qingxiang, I wanted to do this a long time ago, but I couldn't do it.Because a series of strange things are all scattered, like a plate of sand, you can't find their intersection.Mu Qingxiang spread out the blueprint of Huangcuo, and said that these strange things seem to have no connection, but in fact their connection is Huangcuo itself, because these strange things all happened in Huangcuo.Such as the second floor that does not exist in the blueprint, the basement that only exists in the blueprint, the missing black tiles, the torn dead chicken, the dusty persimmon tea, and the organs soaked in formaldehyde, these things can be clarified. I know why my uncle came here.

"Then do you know what Huang Dejun's gesture means?" I asked incomprehensibly. Mu Qingxiang put her eyes on the blueprint and said slowly: "Actually, you can see that if Huang Dejun wants to escape, it is very easy. He is not under absolute surveillance. I think the reason why Huang Dejun refuses to Go, choose to stay, this answer is also related to Huangcuo. So, tonight we will uncover the mystery of Huangcuo, so that we can find Yuequan ancient city as soon as possible." I remembered the silver coins on the first dead chicken, so I asked: "You are right, could uncle come here for those French silver coins? He is a profiteer, and he will definitely do anything for money."

"This is unlikely. If he really wanted to find those silver coins, he would have turned Huang Cuo upside down, but now he seems to be recuperating here every day. Besides, when he found the silver coins that day, everyone was stunned. Who might they be?" They don't know where the silver coins are, even Huang Dejun doesn't know." Mu Qingxiang analyzed. When I heard Mu Qingxiang explain it in such detail, I was immediately overwhelmed with admiration, but Huangcuo doesn't seem to have hidden weapons, otherwise Huang Dejun would have lived there for so long, and it's impossible not to have discovered them.Mu Qingxiang laid out the blueprint flatly, and she asked me to look at the blueprint carefully to see if I could see the clues.I don’t know much about architecture, so it’s better to ask me to look at blueprints if I played with a few building blocks when I was a child.

Mu Qingxiang wasn't joking with me, she pointed to the blueprint and said: "There is no abnormality in the picture, but if you look outside the blueprint, its gate is facing an ancient monument on the sea cliff, but the current gate of Huangcuo , what did you see when you went out?" I tilted my head and thought for a while, then replied: "Go out and look, and the opposite is the sea and the stone cliff. The ancient tablet has been removed. But there are traces of the stone tablet, and its original location seems to be in Huangcuo. more than ten meters to the right."

Mu Qingxiang said to me: "Have you ever thought about why your uncle forbade the three brothers and sisters from the Lu family to go out?" "Because the family education is strict, why else?" I was confused. "Because Huang Cuo is probably not the original Huang Cuo. If my guess is correct, this Huang Cuo should have been rebuilt later. Your uncle didn't let the three brothers and sisters out because he was worried that they would inquire about Huang Cuo. history, so as to discover the secret of that basement.” Mu Qingxiang looked at me and said, “Therefore, there is a second floor that does not exist in the blueprint, and a basement that only exists in the blueprint, because the current Huangcuo is not the original Huangcuo at all. house." I suddenly realized that it turned out that my uncle didn't let those three cousins ​​go out because of this incident.Especially the little cousin, who has so many mouths, would definitely go to Wutong Village to ask the villagers when Huangcuo was built, what major events happened, and even when Huang Dejun became dumb.Huang Dejun has never been dumb, and the villagers all know about it. The uncle made Huang Dejun pretend to be dumb, so that the three brothers and sisters would not make ideas on Huang Dejun, because it is very difficult to communicate with the dumb. .For example, the gesture Huang Dejun made with me just now, I still don't understand the meaning of it, it is more profound than a wordless scripture. My uncle has a bad relationship with me, and I will definitely not listen to his orders, so he didn't bother to stop me from going out.But the uncle used a psychological trick, that is, he introduced Huang Dejun to me as a mute from the beginning.Few people in the world are willing to pretend to be dumb, let alone let others introduce him as an introduction.When we heard our uncle's introduction, we naturally wouldn't doubt it, let alone ask the villagers if it was true. "I didn't expect my uncle to be so good at using psychological tricks!" When I thought of the experience of this year, many people have used this kind of measurement, I couldn't help but feel chills all over my body.Psychological tricks are terrible, even worse than ghosts and gods. If the uncle used scheming in this matter, maybe other things have also designed traps for us to fall into.Maybe the father's frustration was also caused by the elder uncle. After all, he didn't tell his father where the ancient city of Yuequan was, which made his father more and more obsessed. Having said that, if this yellow house is fake, then the real yellow house should be more than ten meters away.However, there is only one ancient house on the entire sea cliff. If there is another ancient house, we cannot be blind and not see it.Maybe it was destroyed during the war. Just ask the villagers about it. The uncle was worried about these things, and the three cousins ​​were grounded. But why did my uncle do this? Is there anything important in the real Huangcuo? Even if the original Huangcuo has been destroyed, can that important thing remain until now?
