Chapter 47 Ma Yun's Doubts

Mahu Weaving's house is very close to the coffin shop, less than two miles away. While Chen Jin was walking leisurely with a small step, he came to his house unknowingly.

When he was home six days ago, Chen Jin met Mahubian on the road. At that time, he told Chen Jin that he would pick some fragrant peaches when he had time to eat.

After class yesterday, I encountered it again on the street, and the other party mentioned the matter of picking peaches again.

So, Chen Jin was doing nothing in the coffin shop, and he was just about to eat some fruit, so he came to Mahu Buyer's house with shamelessness.

"Oh, Master Chen is here, please come in the fast house."

When Chen Jin appeared at the entrance of Mahu Bedding Houseyard, he was in the yard and called Chen Jin to walk into the house, saying, "You are here today. We are just ready to fry the batter and bring some batters back later."

"How embarrassed I am, Brother Ma."

"Well, if it weren't for your master and apprentice, our family wouldn't know what would happen."

After bringing Chen Jinying into the house, Ma Hubang poured him a cup of tea, and then shouted to the backyard: "Wife, Master Chen is here, please wash a few fragrant peaches and bring them up first."

Accompanied by Mahuber's shouts, a woman's response came from the backyard. Then, a little boy who looked about seven or eight years old and had a terrifying head ran up from the backyard.

The little boy is named Jack Ma, and he is very familiar with Chen Jin because the school they studied is the same as the class. Therefore, except for the school holidays, they met several books every day.

"Brother Jin." The stubborn Jack Ma ran to the hall and called out to Chen Jin.

"Yes!" Chen Jin nodded and responded, then found a topic and asked: "Have you copied the article assigned by the Master?"

"It's done, I copied it yesterday."

Since something evil happened to the Ma family and was handled by Mr. Wang, Jack Ma has been very close to Chen Jin.

In addition to the fact that his parents often mentioned Chen Jin's master and apprentice, there was also the terrifying night that he would never see in his life when something happened to the Ma family.

Therefore, in the little guy's heart, Chen Jin is an extremely powerful existence. In addition to being grateful to Chen Jin, he also has a deep admiration for him.

"Super guest, Master Chen, hurry up, try to see if my freshly ripe peaches are sweet or not."

In the hall, when Chen Jin and Jack Ma were talking, Ma Hu's wife brought a plate of peaches and delivered them: "Originally, we married couple wanted to pick some peaches today and then fry some spoons to send to your master and apprentice. Now, you can come here for a while and take them back."

"Hello, thank you sister-in-law Jinlian!"

After a few brief conversations with the woman, she went to work in the backyard for work, while Chen Jin stayed in the front hall while eating peaches while talking to Jack Ma.

"Brother Jin, tell me a story."

"Stories? What kind of stories do you want to listen to?"

"It's interesting and scary. After listening to it, I learned to tell it to others and scare them."

"You guy..."

Chen Jin did not refuse Jack Ma's request. He reached out and pinched the other party's little face, then looked at a place in the room for a brief period of brewing, and then began to tell a story.

...

It is said that in Zhongzhou, there is a huge peak hidden in the clouds and mist. It is called Xifeng Mountain by locals. This mountain is also called the first peak in Zhongzhou.

No one can measure how high the peak is, but if you want to climb from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, you will not be able to reach it in three days.

On the top of the tall Xifeng Mountain, there is snow that does not melt for many years and ice that does not melt for thousands of years.

Therefore, every time the hot summer season is hot and the heat is unstoppable, some people will go to Xifeng Mountain to escape the heat and cool off.

One year during the Great Heat, a group of people appeared at the foot of Xifeng Mountain.

This group of people has a total of seven. They are not residents living at the foot of the Jufeng, but a group of travelers who come here to see them.

After arriving at the foot of Xifeng Mountain, the seven people rested overnight and began to climb the first peak of Zhongzhou.

On the first day, the seven people met many people who were climbing the mountain. They climbed until dark and stopped at a flat hillside to rest for a night.

The next day, they continued to climb to the top of the mountain, but there were no more travelers climbing the mountain along the way.

Because when they stopped yesterday, the height they were at was enough to cool down, and when they climbed up, the temperature would get lower and lower.

But the purpose of these seven people coming here was not just to cool off the heat, but to climb to the first peak of Zhongzhou.

In this way, after climbing for a long time, because the mountain road was too dangerous, one of the seven people accidentally slipped to the ground and scratched their legs by gravel on the ground.

In desperation, they set up a simple tent, placed the injured person, and the other six continued to climb up the mountain.

The injured person looked at the backs of the six companions who were gradually moving away, and felt extremely lonely.

But he could only wait alone on the mountainside, waiting for his companions to return.

As the bored waiting, the sky gradually dimmed, and the injured person could only go into the tent to sleep.

I don’t know how long I slept, but when he woke up, he found that there was a faint torch light outside the tent. He immediately opened the curtain door and took a look. He found that the direction of the torch appeared was the direction his companions went up the mountain before.

Soon, the torch came beside him, and he saw clearly that the person holding the torch was his companions, but there were only five companions coming back, and one person was missing.

After asking, he realized that the missing person had been killed.

It turned out that after these six companions placed him there, they climbed up the mountain together. Before dark, they had already climbed to the snowy area on the mountain.

After nightfall, they found a flat place and prepared to rest for a night.

But who expected that as soon as they settled down, an avalanche occurred. The person who was missing was dead and buried forever by snow on this first peak in Zhongzhou.

After listening to the stories of his companions, the injured man lowered his head and silently prayed for his companions.

However, at this moment, a figure rushed out of the darkness and ran to him quickly.

With the ignition of fire, he found that the figure suddenly rushed out of his face was covered with blood, and his clothes were scratched. However, he still recognized at a glance that this person was the companion who died in death.

After the companion who was supposed to die under the avalanche and who was covered in blood appeared, he took the injured man's hand and ran down the mountain, and at the same time he also explained.

What he said was roughly the same as what the other five said, except that the end result was that the avalanche buried the five people under the snow, and he was the only survivor.

...

Having said this, Chen Jin turned his head and looked at Jack Ma beside him, and found that he was looking at him intently, waiting for the story to follow.

At the same time, not far away, Mahu Wean was holding a cloth bag in his hand, containing his own fragrant peaches and freshly made fried dough, and was also listening to Chen Jin telling this story.

"What's next for brother?"

"Next, you can guess it yourself. Do you think the five people died in the avalanche, or the one with blood in the middle of the body?"

After leaving a question for Jack Ma, Chen Jin said goodbye to his father Ma Hu, and then took Xiangtao back to the coffin shop.
