C198 Old Man Liu
"Hm!" After running around in the morning, I think you must have just come out! "
Bai Zhenjiang nodded, took a bottle of water from the secretary beside him and took a sip.
"That's right!" "Brother Bai's run is over, he's going back to eat breakfast!"
Jiang Chen glanced at the secretary who passed water to Brother Bai. As expected of the big boss of Guihai, even after the morning run, there were still people following him.
"No rush. Come, Little Jiang, sit over here!"
Bai Zhenjiang smiled and gestured Jiang Chen to sit on the bench beside him.
However, Jiang Chen was curious. Could it be that Bai Zhenjiang had something to talk to him about today? Normally, he wouldn't ask him to chat in private.
Of course, this was except when playing chess. Even when playing chess, Bai Zhenjiang would only chat with Jiang Chen about insignificant matters and rarely talk about work and family.
"Xiao Jiang, you must have been living here for months! "I'm used to living here!"
"Not bad!" The environment here is one of the best in terms of Guihai, so it is much better than the place I used to live in. "
Jiang Chen was telling the truth. During Yan Family, he was living with his father, Mrs. Yan, and Yan Dieh.
"As long as you're used to it."
Bai Zhenjiang continued, "Oh right, Little Jiang, do you know where that Mr. Wu from before went? Can you contact him now? "
"Mister Wu?"
Jiang Chen was stunned. Bai Zhenjiang should be referring to the person who lived in his villa before him!
But when Jiang Family gave him this villa, it was empty. Maybe it was cleaned, so he couldn't see any signs of people living there. Jiang Chen was even less clear on who lived there before.
He slightly shook his head and said, "Brother Bai, to tell you the truth, when I moved here, the mansion was already empty. Brother Bai slightly shook his head and said," Brother Bai, to tell you the truth, the mansion was already empty when I moved here.
"Oh!" "So it's like that!"
A hint of disappointment appeared on Bai Zhenjiang's face and his expression became a bit gloomy.
"Brother Bai, is there anything I can help you with?" If you really need it, I can try to contact my friend, but as for whether or not I can contact him, I can't guarantee that … "
Jiang Chen said.
"Then there's no need to trouble yourself. Actually, it's not a big deal. I just had a chat with Mister Wu when we met in the past. Recently, I remembered that I wanted to meet him again."
Bai Zhenjiang clearly wanted to say something but hesitated. There were some words that he didn't want to explain to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen didn't ask any further. He looked Bai Zhenjiang up and down and secretly calculated in his heart using the "Star Observation Push Arithmetic" that his uncle had taught him.
"Brother Bai, I don't think you look that good!" It seems like you haven't had a good sleep for a long time, and there's black energy lingering around your forehead, making the divine altar dark and unclear. Is it because something happened at home recently, or …! "
Jiang Chen also wanted to say something but hesitated. He purposely made Bai Zhenjiang curious so that Bai Zhenjiang could speak first.
Bai Zhenjiang's eyes narrowed as he said seriously, "Little Jiang, what else did you see?"
"Brother Bai, if you are too weird, it's not good for me to tell you. However, if I'm not wrong, during your recent meal, you might have encountered something that confused you. I mean …" This is something that ordinary people cannot understand, yet cannot understand. "
Jiang Chen said lightly.
Bai Zhenjiang's body trembled. He did not expect that the normally ordinary Jiang Chen would talk about him at this moment.
"Little Jiang, you're mostly right."2
Bai Zhenjiang relaxed his body and said: "Actually, I don't believe you either. You should have guessed my identity, so how could I admit to the existence of these weird things! But recently, I did encounter some things that were very hard to understand, which troubled me a lot. "
Thus, Bai Zhenjiang started the conversation and told Jiang Chen about the strange things that happened to him recently.
Bai Zhenjiang's family was famous for their Guihai. Although they were not as famous as Ma Family, they were still quite famous in terms of teaching.
His father had died many years ago, but his mother had died three years ago. This strange event had occurred not long ago when he had gone to clean up his mother's grave.
That day was the anniversary of his mother's death. As usual, he went to the cemetery to search for tombs. When he returned home, it was already past eight in the evening.
After a tiring day, he was tired too. After washing up, he went back to his bedroom to sleep.
However, just as he fell asleep, he heard something knocking against the wall.
Bai Zhenjiang only had one child, and was a girl. He went abroad to study early, so there was no child prank in the house.
He thought it was a servant chopping things in the kitchen, so he pushed his wife and told her to go see what was going on.
When his wife went to see him, she said nothing. The servant had already gone to bed, and no one knocked on the wall.
Bai Zhenjiang felt it was strange, but he didn't care and continued sleeping.
However, just as he was about to fall asleep and his consciousness was about to go into a blur, he heard the sound of someone knocking on the wall again. This time around, it was even louder, as if it was next to his ear.
He immediately woke up from his stupor and walked around the room, yet he could not find the source of the sound.
When he returned to the bed, the sound was still ringing. After all, he had not slept that night.
The next morning, Bai Zhenjiang felt weird, so he got his secretary to call the construction expert to check up on him.
However, even after a thorough check, he was still unable to find the source of the problem.
Since he did not sleep all night, Bai Zhenjiang did not have the mood to work the next day, nor did he want to go back to the villa to rest. At night, he got the driver to drive him and his wife back to the Bai Family house, which was the house Bai Zhenjiang's parents lived in before they died.
The house was near a farm in the suburbs, and behind it, there was a famous mountain in Guihai, and in front of it, there was a small river.
However, Bai Zhenjiang nearly lost his life when he thought of this decision.
That night, after he and his wife had finished their dinner, he was unable to stay awake. He fell asleep on his bed shortly after six in the evening.
This time, he slept soundly, not even knowing what had happened outside.
It rained heavily that night, but Bai Zhenjiang didn't know it at all. Although he usually slept soundly, it was definitely not as heavy as that night.
After sleeping for an unknown period of time, Bai Zhenjiang felt like he was dreaming.
He dreamt that someone was calling out to him. He thought that since it was a dream, he didn't mind seeing who it was. He followed the voice in a daze to an empty space behind the old house.
This plot of land was used by his parents as a small garden to grow vegetables. After his father's death, his mother did not have the heart to take care of it. However, due to her poor health, she moved to a sanatorium.
Bai Zhenjiang came in a hurry and didn't let anyone clean the yard first. Therefore, he searched for the sound while he pushed the weeds around.
Pushing aside the weeds, he found a well at the side of the clearing.
He was very familiar with this well. When he was young, he often gathered water here with his father.
However, this well had been abandoned for many years and no one had used it. How could there be any sound coming from inside?
