There was the sound of digging from the top, and dirt was falling down. Ling Yun quickly protected his face and looked towards Jiabao. Jiabao said with a sad face, "I knew I would be in big trouble if I helped you. The old fox is digging my grave!"
Fortunately, the soil is thick enough and it won't be possible to dig into it for a while.
Ling Yun asked, "How long until dawn?" No one knows this better than the little ghosts. They are afraid of the sun and are alert to the time.
"There's still more than half an hour. Don't worry, that old fox can't dig through the lid of my coffin."
The little guy looked confident. Ling Yun knew that there was no danger for the time being, so he leaned over and started chatting with Duan Jiabao. She was not afraid of this kid.
"How long have you been dead? Why don't you go report and line up to be reincarnated?"
"I have been dead for more than seventy years, and my parents are probably no longer here. I have lost the incense and incense provided by my relatives, so I cannot go to the underworld." Duan Jiabao counted the time with his fingers.
This child seemed to be pure-hearted and had not done any real harm to Uncle Lin. He even helped them. Ling Yun saw that he still had some humanity left in him and thought that he might be able to help him. Now that he thinks about it, he left Uncle Lin behind. This may also be to save him. The fox is getting married today. If Uncle Lin who comes down the mountain meets him.
It is estimated that it is really a narrow escape, even if it is frightened, it will probably have sequelae.
Indirectly, he saved the lives of the three of them. Ling Yun had nothing in his hands now, and he really didn't have the confidence to deal with the fierce old fox outside.
"Duan Jiabao thanks you for your help tonight. I can't guarantee that we can find your family, but when we go back we can help you build a mountain temple, help you submit a letter to ask for the title, become the mountain god here, and receive the incense of the people."
"Really, you won't lie to me?" He looked at Su Youting, obviously knowing that Su Youting really had this right, and his life was too precious.
"It's okay if I say yes!" Ling Yun said very firmly. She really wanted to help this poor and kind-hearted kid within her own ability.
Duan Jiabao blinked his big eyes and said with a distressed look, "It's really good. Then it's worth it for me to set up my own nest to protect you today. Just ask the old fox to dig it! She will be honest at dawn."
After saying that, the will-o'-the-wisp in his hand was extinguished, and the surroundings fell into darkness again, and the air quality was still smelly and poor.
The waiting time was excruciating, with the constant sound of digging and falling soil crumbs overhead.
I don't know how long it took, but my breathing started to become unsmooth, and Jiabao's voice came again, "I will send you out. At dawn, the old fox is gone. I can't get out. You must remember your promise to me!"
He spoke in a low voice, as if he was weak.
Ling Yun knew that this was because the tomb was damaged and Ming Jiabao's strength was also weakened a lot. He probably said these words with all his strength.
When everything went dark, they had left the space they were in. The light outside was still dim. It was obvious that the sun had just risen and had not yet penetrated the branches and covered the entire ground.
But it is much brighter than at night, and the fog has disappeared. In the morning in the mountains, everything is a soft green, and the air is filled with the smell of green grass.
But I guess Uncle Lin won't like the taste too much. After all, he ate a lot last night.
"We've been out all night, let's go back quickly, I'm afraid my mother will be anxious!"
Ling Yun had no objection. Su Youting carried Uncle Lin on his back, and the three of them quickly headed down the mountain.
Before going down the mountain, Ling Yun put his hands together and bowed to Duan Jiabao's small grave without Wang, and said softly, "Just wait for me. I will definitely honor what you said."
The small grave had been dug flat at this time, and there were traces of careless digging of soil on it. Most of the small earth bag was gone, and there was no appearance of a grave.
Ling Yun is not only worried about her mother-in-law. She is also worried that the three teenagers may also encounter any danger. It was really not a good time to go out last night.
Returning like an arrow, they descended the mountain very quickly. Before they entered the village, they saw Su Chen and Hu Zi waiting anxiously at the entrance of the village to the mountain.
Seeing that they had returned safely, several people quickly greeted them.
When Huzi saw his father being carried back unconscious, he immediately went to check on Orion Lin and calmed down after seeing that there was no blood.
"Brother Youting, my father is...?"
When Mrs. Su Chen saw her two children back safely, the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. She let out a sigh of relief, pulled Hu Zi and said, "If you have anything to say, let's go home first."
The Lin family and the Su family are not far apart, with only Zhang Chunliang's family between them. The aunt who helped take care of the Chen family yesterday is Zhang Chunliang's mother.
After placing Orion Lin on the kang in his house, Su Youting breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his head.
"Youting, why did you come back just now?"
Huzi, the others, and Su Youting naturally hid nothing, and immediately told them about the strange things they encountered yesterday, with still a little fear on their faces.
Su Youting now understands the three little brothers very well. After all, he has also encountered strange things, and he still has lingering fears.
Ling Yun almost didn't need them to speak. After seeing the traces left by the amulet paper she gave in Hu Zi's palm, he knew that they must have encountered something very fierce, otherwise the amulet paper would not burn violently and leave traces on people's bodies.
She said calmly, "You are probably overthinking it. Go and hire a doctor for Uncle Lin first. He has eaten a lot of messy things."
The three teenagers turned around and ran out. As long as they were not asked to go up the mountain, they could go anywhere, let alone just go to the village to find a doctor to do errands.
Ling Yun was going to take some firewood to the kitchen to cook something just after they left.
When Su Youting saw it, he immediately ran ahead. This girl must have been exhausted after running around in the mountains all night with him. How could she be asked to do heavy work? He took the lead and ran directly to grab firewood to help.
Mrs. Su Chen thought Ling Yun was hungry, so she hurriedly said, "Let's go home and eat. I can't sleep at night. The newly steamed steamed buns are still warm, and there are also braised beef offal."
Ling Yun did not hide anything from her mother-in-law and said softly, "Mom, Huzi and we all encountered something unclean last night. I'll make some ginger soup and let everyone drink it to remove the yin energy."
"Hey, did you encounter those things yesterday? Were you injured? Are you still scared now?"
"Mom, we are all fine. Look, not even a hair is missing. I will tell you in detail later."
While he was talking, Su Youting had already lit the fire in the stove and washed the pot.
Afraid that there would be no sugar here, Su Chen quickly ran home to get the brown sugar Ling Yun bought yesterday. She also brought the food and put it on the table.
Water was added to the big pot, half a bag of brown sugar was put in, a large piece of ginger was smashed and thrown into the pot. The water was boiling quickly after the fire was strong.
Ling Yun first filled a bowl and handed it to Su Youting.
This brown sugar ginger water has many benefits. It can not only dispel cold and dampness, but also remove yin energy and breed yang energy, quickly replenishing physical strength.
It's best for them to have a bowl now.
I thought Ling Yun would drink the second bowl by herself, but she didn't expect that she went directly into the room, held Uncle Lin's head, and poured it in carefully one by one.
Although Uncle Lin never woke up, he still knew the basics of swallowing. When something came into his mouth, he subconsciously started to swallow. After taking several sips, he turned sideways and started vomiting by the kang.
