As for Coffin Yang's gift, it simply went to waste.
However, if I go back this time and tell Coffin Yang Yi about my relationship with Lin Xueling, he will definitely smile from the corners of his mouth to his ears.
Maybe they’ll even give me some awesome magic weapons or something.
I was sitting in the car, and Lin Xueling was still driving. Actually, I couldn't bear to see my wife so tired.
It’s just...I can’t drive it!
Lin Xueling was not worried and handed the steering wheel to me. If the car suddenly overturned, we would not be killed by the skinned ghost or the cat-faced monster, but we would be tortured to death by ourselves.
That would be funny.
It was almost six o'clock in the evening when we arrived at the village. It was summer, the sun had not set, and the sky was slightly bright.
Two cars, one large and one small, slowly drove into the village, attracting some villagers to gather together curiously.
"Whose child is this? They want to come back after becoming successful? A big truck also came."
"It's not like that. Nowadays, young people are all running out. Who will go back to a small village when they are rich? They are probably moving. Didn't you see the moving cars coming?"
"That's right! Whose house do you think this is? The car in front seems to be worth a lot of money."
"You ask me, who should I ask to go? We can just join in the fun, and it doesn't matter what happens to us anyway."
The car slowly stopped at the entrance of the village. I opened the door and stepped out of the car. However, the villagers who were still smiling and whispering to each other lost their smiles the moment they saw me, and even their expressions became weird.
The originally noisy village entrance suddenly became silent as I got out of the car.
I am not blind either, so their abnormal expressions made me feel a little weird.
"what happened?"
Seeing that none of them spoke, I couldn't help but ask.
"Oh my god, Tianyi, please go home and take a look! Alas! Your grandma and third uncle were here and left last night. You were not in the village at that time and we couldn't contact you, so we raised money to help your grandma and third uncle. Build a mourning hall, go home and take a look."
The speaker was an old man, my neighbor.
When I heard this, I felt like I was struck by lightning. I stumbled and fell directly to the ground.
Lin Xueling, who was in the car, saw me falling to the ground, so she hurriedly ran out of the car and helped me up with everyone else.
"Grandma and uncle are both very strong. How could they just die? You must be lying to me. My grandma and uncle are in such good health. How could they die? It's impossible. You lied to me. You are talking nonsense!”
I yelled at everyone like crazy, and then ran all the way towards home.
Tears have already moistened my eyes, and the tears have stayed in my eyes and have not yet flowed out. I know that what they said cannot be lies, because no one would joke about such a thing.
Grandma and third uncle may...maybe they are really gone...
I held the last bit of luck and ran to the small courtyard. At this moment, the small courtyard was lifeless and felt lifeless.
Yellow and white round paper money was scattered on the ground, a soul-inducing flag was pinned at the door, two black lacquered wooden coffins were laid out in the small courtyard, and there was an offering table in front of the coffins, and two black and white photos of the deceased were placed on it...
And the people in the photo were grandma and third uncle.
When I saw this scene, the tears that were suppressed in my eyes could no longer be held back, like water in a river that opened its gates and kept flowing.
I knelt in front of the deceased photos of my grandma and my third uncle, and cried for an unknown amount of time until my eye circles were red and swollen, my throat became hoarse, and my tears could no longer flow.
I just stopped crying. I felt like I was lost. I knelt in front of the portrait in a daze, without speaking or moving. My eyes lost their light and I looked stupidly at the photos of my grandma and my third uncle.
Lin Xueling, on the other hand, knelt beside me and said nothing, just holding my arm.
She knew that it was useless to say anything now. Only this kind of silent companionship could make my lonely heart feel a nostalgia for the world.
Night is slowly coming, and the snow-white moonlight is shining on the ground, bringing a glimmer of light to this endless darkness.
I looked up at the stars, my eyes filled with confusion.
Why?
Why do I suffer such injustice?
I clearly killed demons and saved people's lives, but in the end, I couldn't even protect my own family.
God, you are so unfair to me!
Complaining is useless, but it can vent the anger in my heart. After the anger dissipated, I gradually regained my rationality.
I knelt on the ground for several hours, moving my legs slightly, feeling the kind of bone-piercing pain.
But this little pain is nothing to me.
He slowly stood up, took Lin Xueling's hand, and together they respectfully offered a stick of incense to grandma and third uncle.
Then he strode out of the courtyard.
It's not that I don't want to keep vigil, but I have important things to do.
That is to find out who killed grandma and third uncle.
I want to find this murderer, which is the motivation for me to live.
I led Lin Xueling quickly to the door of Coffin Yang's house. The door was unlocked, so I pushed the door open and entered.
But unexpectedly, the moment I entered, a cold light blade swept towards my neck.
"Ah! Be careful!"
Lin Xueling's eyes widened and she pulled me back fiercely, so that my throat was not blocked by the sharp blade.
I was frightened for a while, so I pulled out the sword blade, pointed it at the man in black in front of me, and said sternly: "Who are you and why are you in my master's house?"
"You have offended our elders and you still want to live?"
The man in black had a hoarse voice, as if he was using a voice changer, making it difficult to distinguish between men and women.
"So... that is to say, the death of my grandma and third uncle is related to you."
My eyes were cold, and I took out a Sanqing soul-soothing bell with one hand, shook the bell, and made a crisp sound.
As the bell swayed, the branches of a lush old tree in the courtyard began to dance. The slender branches were like whips, beating mercilessly on the man in black.
The man in black did not expect this, and was caught off guard at first, but after he stabilized himself, the blade in his hand danced like a flower, cutting down countless branches and leaves.
While I was ringing the bell, I was secretly calculating the timing. As long as I found a flaw, this person would die.
If there is no flaw, I will not rush forward desperately just because I am eager for revenge.
This man has sharp swordsmanship and extraordinary skills. Even if he wins, he will be seriously injured.
Furthermore, he is just a pawn. The person who really harmed my family is still behind, and it is the forces behind him that I want to take revenge on, not just him alone.
Although the branches and leaves of this old tree are lush, they cannot withstand being cut with a sharp knife.
I glanced at the coffins lined up beside me, and immediately stepped forward with my feet and made a seal with one hand.
"The wood has a spirit, the coffin has a spirit, the wooden coffin listens to my orders, the feng shui suppresses the demons, and the coffin is raised!"
Following my explosion, several coffins on the ground rose up from the ground and hovered in mid-air. As I pointed forward, several coffins also moved forward.
When the man in black saw the coffin coming towards him, he hurriedly dodged. However, the coffin was not as fragile and fragile as a tree branch. The blade of the knife could not cut it off directly.
In addition, the coffin is relatively large, and the position where the man in black is standing at the moment is not wide.
Even though he dodged in time, he was hit by one of the coffins and staggered. He groaned and almost fell to the ground.
This is the opportunity I have been waiting for.
Faced with the man in black's defenseless weakness, I stepped forward with my sword and stabbed the man in black in the chest.
