Chapter 54 4. He is not alone

Zhu Neng seemed to be sick. He was weak all over, sweating profusely, had a headache, was in a trance, afraid of seeing people, afraid of seeing light... So, he shut himself in the room, drew the curtains, turned off the lights, and created the illusion that no one was around.But just outside, there were a group of women and a dwarf, and they talked cheerfully. Zhu Neng knew why they were so excited, the reason was very simple, because they knew that Xuanzang's parietal bone relic was about to be obtained.They were so numerous that they were not afraid of Zhu Neng's tricks at all.

More importantly, they took away Zhu Neng's cell phone. At this time, Zhu Neng was completely isolated. It's been a nightmare day. The next day was the day when Zhou Dagui's daughter-in-law was going to hand over Xuanzang's parietal bone relic to him. The first thing Zhu Neng did after waking up was to find a phone, and then called Niu Chuanli. To his surprise, Niu Chuanli said on the phone that he had arrived in Wulibao Town, and it was near the Earth Temple. Let Zhu Neng rest assured. So, Zhu Neng seemed to grasp a life-saving straw. After eating the breakfast prepared by Liu Yuejin, he went out.Bai Jingjing followed behind him, looking very excited.The others were gone, and Zhu Neng thought they must have gone to the Earth Temple in advance.

It was still cloudy, the sky was dark and rumbling, and it looked a little weird. The whole world seemed to be waiting for something. As soon as he walked out of the guest house, Zhu Neng saw the trash collector and the woman with heavy makeup.She sold some waste newspapers to the junk collectors, as if she suspected that the junk collectors were not accurate in weighing, and the two quarreled. They didn't even look at Zhu Neng. When walking past Zhou Dagui's house, Zhu Neng stopped.He tiptoed to see what was going on in the yard, but he saw nothing.After waiting for a while, the courtyard door of Zhou Dagui's house was still closed, no one came out yet, and there was no sound inside.

So Zhu Neng and Bai Jingjing continued to move forward. The wind was blowing, and the world was extremely deserted and desolate. "Hey, I asked you something, don't be angry." "Go ahead." "Why do you have to get Xuanzang's parietal bone relic?" "Don't you want it?" "In no mood." Bai Jingjing stopped suddenly, she raised her head, looked at the dark clouds in the sky, her expression suddenly became dark: "Do you know what Lao Yuan used to do?" Zhu Neng widened his eyes. Bai Jingjing closed her eyes, and began to mutter indistinctly, like talking in sleep, the tone made Zhu Neng shudder.After a while, Zhu Neng recognized that what she was chanting was a nursery rhyme.

This is a nursery rhyme that Zhu Neng often listened to when he was a child—— The little boy sits at the gate, crying for a wife.What do you want a wife for?Light up the lights and talk.Blow out the lamp, be your companion, and put your braids on tomorrow morning. When Zhu Neng was a child, Zhu Yiming often chanted this nursery rhyme.At this time, his eyes became much clearer, not so dull, as if he remembered something beautiful. How did Bai Jingjing know this nursery rhyme? Zhu Neng coughed dryly. Bai Jingjing seemed to have just come back to her senses, she murmured: "Old Yuan is a director."

Zhu Neng's eyes widened again. "He is a very talented director. I believe that the films he makes are no worse than anyone else's, but except me, no one believes in him, and no one invests in him. He can only make some low-cost films. Movies. Over the years, he hasn’t come up with anything famous, and then he can only raise monkeys because he has no money..." Bai Jingjing muttered to herself, as if she was confiding. Zhu Neng seemed to understand something. Suddenly, a furry thing emerged from the ditch by the roadside. It lowered its eyes and limped towards it.It was the same dirt dog, it was even dirtier, with a bone in its mouth and dripping blood.

Bai Jingjing seemed to be frightened, and suddenly stopped talking. Zhu Neng waved at it and knelt down to scare it. But it was not afraid, and still stood in the middle of the road, looking at them steadily. At this moment, Zhu Neng suspected that it was not a dog, but a wolf.Finally, they walked around it cautiously and continued on. Along the way, Bai Jingjing didn't speak any more. They came to the pine forest.On a cloudy day, the inside is even more gloomy.There was a wind blowing, and the branches "rustled", like a scene in a horror movie. It was empty and there was no one around.The wind blew up the grass clippings on the ground, and there were two or three pieces of white paper money.

Walking into the pine forest is like walking into hell, into another world. The forest is getting deeper and deeper, and it seems that there are countless pairs of eyes hidden in it.Zhu Neng knew that they were Xu Lan, Sun Kong, Yuan Hui, Grandma Yuan, the old woman who sold him mineral water, Guan Yin, and the waitress who came back to the hotel... They are all his enemies. He didn't know if he could get out.At this time, how much he hoped that Niu Tradition would appear. After walking for a while, the surrounding pine forest became thinner, and Zhu Neng saw the Earth Temple. The weeds in front of the Earth Temple have been sorted out, and the wind blows up the paper ash on the ground, flying around.Looks like someone just burned paper here.

However, Zhu Neng couldn't see anyone around. Bai Jingjing stopped and spoke suddenly. "You're scared of this place, aren't you?" Zhu Neng didn't know what she meant, so he didn't speak. A dark figure appeared behind the Earth Temple, seemingly emerging from the ground. She is Zhou Dagui's daughter-in-law. She walked towards Zhu Neng step by step.She held a small cloth bag in her hand, which was bulging.Is it Xuanzang's parietal bone relic?Zhu Neng's eyes widened, and Bai Jingjing's breathing became heavy. Finally, she stood in front of Zhu Neng, as if she didn't think it was enough, she took another small step forward, almost sticking to Zhu Neng.After a long time, she stood on tiptoe and whispered in Zhu Neng's ear, "I came today to tell you a secret."

Zhu Neng listened nervously. "The secret is—your grandfather didn't have Xuanzang's parietal bone relic at all." After she finished speaking, she seemed to be unable to bear it, and burst out laughing. Zhu Neng seemed to have received an electric shock. Finally, she put the small cloth bag in Zhu Neng's hand, and walked away slowly. What's in the little cloth bag?Zhu Neng was extremely nervous. Taking a deep breath, he slowly opened it... At this time, a group of people walked out of the pine forest——Xu Lan, Sun Kong, Yuan Hui, Grandma Yuan, the old woman who sold him mineral water, Guan Yin, and the waitress who came back to the hotel.

Their eyes glowed. Zhu Neng didn't look at it at all, he handed the little cloth bag to Bai Jingjing.A group of people gathered around, and when passing by, Xu Lan didn't even look at Zhu Neng, she stared at the small cloth bag in Bai Jingjing's hand. Bai Jingjing's hands were already shaking. Finally, she opened the small cloth bag. Everyone was dumbfounded—— In the small cloth bag, there was no Xuanzang parietal bone relic, but some money and a piece of yellowed paper.The paper looked old, worn, and deeply creased. Zhu Neng was very curious, so he leaned over to have a look. This is a notice of redress—— Comrade Zhu Yiming was labeled as a rightist in the anti-rightist struggle, and his relatives and children were also implicated.It has been verified that the case is purely false and unjust, and it has been decided to give him a complete rehabilitation, restore his reputation, express his cordial condolences, and issue a notice of rehabilitation as proof. Hope to muster more energy and work hard to build four modern socialist powers. The date of inscription below is July 16, 1979. Zhu Neng was also dumbfounded. At this time, more than a dozen people came out from the pine forest, all of them had the words "POLICE" written on their clothes, and several of them were holding handcuffs, which were emitting a blue cold light. The police uniform on her body finally exposed the identity of the woman with heavy make-up. When she walked in front of Bai Jingjing, her originally frivolous eyes became as sharp as knives. Bai Jingjing's face was ashen. They were all caught. The trash collectors and those in black also changed into police uniforms, very majestic.They walked up to Zhu Neng, and the trash collector said, "Why didn't you call the police?" Zhu Neng obviously hadn't recovered yet, he faltered and said, "I think, I want to find evidence of their crime... and then call the police." The trash collector smiled and said, "You're looking for evidence? What do you want us police to do?" Zhu Neng was speechless.
