The white-bearded old village chief looked at his son, originally wanting to scold him and stop meddling in other people's business.
But, after he thought about his son's words carefully, he felt that his son's words seemed to make some sense.
After all, the village had been closed for decades, and its contact with the outside world was cut off by the strange fog. Weddings and funerals were all done within the village.
This resulted in many people in the village being related to each other.
Even if they are not related to each other, in the past few decades, everyone has looked up and seen each other, and there is still some affection for them.
If you really look at your relatives and friends being killed by that evil star, you will feel a little bit regretful.
The old white-bearded village chief thought for a while, looked at his son, and then at his other family members, and said, "Let's do this. I will go and gather the elders from the elders' association first."
"Then, regarding this matter, I will discuss this matter with the clan elders and try to obtain their cooperation. If those clan elders can stand on our side, then it will be easier to collect the fragments."
"If the clan elders don't agree, then we will do it ourselves. Let the clan elders take those who are unwilling to hand over the fragments to find trouble with the evil star!"
"Anyway, no matter which one of them is unlucky, I'll be happy!"
"As for you, take advantage of this time to quickly go find your relatives and friends, and try your best to persuade them to cooperate with us and hand over the pieces. Don't fight against the evil star. There will be no good fruits to eat!"
The old white-bearded village chief's wife and daughter-in-law listened to his words, nodded hurriedly, and then hurried out.
Seeing that his wife and daughter-in-law had all run out of the house, the old white-bearded village chief knelt down again, looked at his little grandson, patted his head, and said kindly: "My dear grandson, you were just scared." Is it broken? It’s okay, the bad guy has left. Go inside the house and sleep for a while."
The grandson of the old white-bearded village chief was really frightened by Wang Yu's destructive behavior just now, and he burst into tears. There were still tears on his face.
When he heard that his grandfather told him to go to sleep in the house, the child was simple-minded and didn't think too much, so he nodded obediently and walked towards the back room.
The white-bearded old village chief looked at his grandson's back with a smile on his face, and slowly stood up.
When his little grandson's back disappeared from sight, his smile immediately disappeared and his face immediately darkened. He turned to look at his son and said viciously: "You stinky boy, do you have any brains?"
"That thing around your neck is your head, not a weight! It's not a decoration! You have to use it! Before you speak, can you think about it first and then speak it out? Is that okay?"
"In front of them, you said, 'If you say this, will you believe it?' What do you mean, if you say this, will you believe it? When you say this, you are not saying that what we just said is a lie." ?"
"Fortunately, your mother and your wife are stupid. I can explain it casually. If you say this to others, they will be suspicious. We were just making up a story!"
The white-bearded old village chief's son was so frightened by his father's sudden scolding that his face turned pale with fright.
He quickly nodded and admitted his mistake: "Dad, I know I was wrong. Didn't I just get grabbed by the neck by that evil star and affect my head? It's as if my head is filled with paste. For a while, I can't feel it at all. I can’t turn the corner.”
When the white-bearded old village chief heard what his son said, he didn't pursue it too much. He just snorted coldly and said, "I'm going to find those old guys from the clan elders' association now. You and your mother will do the same." Same, go find your relatives and friends."
"If we can persuade them to hand over their things, that would be the best. If we can't persuade them, then forget it. We have done what we should persuade them to do. If they want to die, let them die!"
The white-bearded old man, the son of the village chief, nodded to show that he understood. Then, he asked: "Dad, do you think that evil star can come back alive when he takes these fragments and goes into the woods?"
His father glanced at him and complained angrily: "I think you kid, it's true, your brain has been damaged, right? You just couldn't remember what you said to me?"
"You just said that if we don't listen to that evil star, we will all die. If we listen to him and hand over those fragments, we may still be able to live."
"Isn't it a little too late for you to worry now about whether he can come back alive?"
When the white-bearded village chief's son heard what his father said, he suddenly became anxious and defended: "I wasn't looking at the evil star at that time, but I really wanted to kill you. I was afraid that he would kill you, so , can I give you a step down?"
"What I said at that time was just to deal with that evil star. They were all lies! Now that he is gone, of course I have to tell you the truth!"
"We have done various experiments on these fragments at that time. It may be useful, but it is useful, and it may be useless, but it is useless."
"We don't know what kind of strength that evil star is. Can he come back alive? If he dies there, then we all have to die!"
The old man with a white beard, the village chief, shook his head after hearing his son's words, sighed, and said: "What are you telling the truth? This is the current situation."
"We, now, can only burn incense and worship Buddha, and ask for the blessings of Bodhisattvas so that the evil star can come back alive. Otherwise, our whole village will be unlucky!"
"But, who am I, your father? I have other ways, so don't worry!"
The white-bearded old village chief said, with a mysterious smile on his face, which made his son stunned.
He didn't care what his son's reaction was. After saying these words, he waved to his son and walked out of the house.
The son of the village chief with a white beard listened to what his father said. Although he didn't know what else his father could do, he still trusted his father.
Although he was confused as a monk, he did not ask questions at his father's back, but walked out.
The two of them, and even their other family members, didn't notice at all that Su Yumo, who had hidden his figure, had been standing beside them.
From the moment they started talking to the time the white-bearded old village chief and his son left, Su Yumo saw everything they said and did.
After the white-bearded old man and the village chief's son left, Su Yumo followed him and walked out of the house.
----------------------------------------
When Wang Yu walked out of the back door of the white-bearded village chief's house and walked to their backyard, he heard the white-bearded village chief's son call out "Dad," but he didn't hear the rest.
This situation made him alert.
He remembered that when he left the house and went outside to discuss matters with Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi, the bad old man's son also called him dad, but nothing happened.
At that time, I was anxious to discuss things with the two of them, so I didn't take this situation to heart. However, thinking about it now, I feel that something is wrong.
It's not like we just met and need to say hello. Who would just call "Dad" for no reason, and then there would be no more words?
Usually, when you address others by addressing them, you want to attract their attention and pave the way for what you will say later.
Generally, no one would just address someone with one sentence and then have nothing to say, unless someone stopped him from what he wanted to say later!
However, in that room, the only person who could stop the bad old man's son from talking was the bad old man himself!
So, why did that bad old man stop his son from talking?
They have all come out, and they are the only family left in the house. What is there to say that other family members cannot know?
What on earth did his son want to say?
Forget it once, this is the second time!
Both times, he stopped his son from talking. This is enough to prove that the bad old man doesn't want others to know what he has to say, even his own family!
Even his own family members have to hide it, which further proves that the words and things he just said to him are hiding something!
