Following grandpa's instructions, my father placed grandma's belongings next to grandpa and lit a seven-star lantern under the bed.
From morning to afternoon, my father refilled lamp oil twice.
In the evening, two white cranes suddenly flew into the yard. White cranes strolled in the yard as if looking for food.
My father didn't dare to disturb him, so he just sat in the house and watched helplessly as they walked into the house one after another, walked around the main room, and went directly to grandpa's bed. Next, my father saw an incredible scene.
The two white cranes actually knelt in front of Grandpa's bed, nodded three times in a row, and then turned and left.
The moment they flew out of the yard, my father suddenly heard a loud "click!"
The sound was like a broken beam.
My father turned to look and saw that the flames of the seven oil lamps had turned green and flickered, as if they were about to go out. So I quickly carried the lamp oil over and prepared to add more.
However, as soon as he reached the bed, the oil jar in his father's hand fell to the ground.
"Abba!"
My father was trembling all over and slowly approached his grandfather on the bed.
At this time, Grandpa's face was pale, and there were dewdrops on his beard. My father stretched out his hand and touched it, and his breath was like a gossamer.
"Abba!"
My father knelt down on the spot.
At this moment, my father suddenly noticed that there was another person beside him.
An imposing man!
This man looked to be about thirty years old, with a few moustache, wearing a black tunic suit, and a white cloak on his back. He looked like he had come from afar, but his leather shoes were bright and spotless.
"Stop crying, your father is not dead yet!" the man next to him said expressionlessly.
The father rubbed his eyes and asked, "Who is this eldest brother?"
"Brother?"
The man snorted coldly.
"Didn't your father tell you that my surname is Bai?"
"My surname is Bai? It turns out to be my uncle!"
His father stood up quickly and bowed to him.
The man named Bai still had a cold face, turned around and walked towards the door.
"Don't call me uncle, I don't have a nephew like you. From now on, you can call me Master Bai."
"Bai...Master Bai!"
Father hurriedly carried the teapot to the yard, placed the washed teacup on the millstone, and poured tea for Master Bai.
"Master Bai, is my father really not dead yet?" his father asked timidly.
"Two of the three souls have gone. Your father will not leave until your child is born and his obsession is over."
"my child?"
"That's right! Boy, you have to work harder in the bridal chamber tonight. If you don't understand anything, just ask me."
Having said this, Master Bai grabbed the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and smiled to himself.
"I'm taking advantage of you, kid! I was a dead man, but I didn't expect to come back to life. Forget it, in this era, one person can still have two wives..."
"Boy, do you know why this is?" Master Bai turned his head and looked at his father.
The father thought for a moment and said, "Because my father knows magic!"
Master Bai looked impatient.
"wrong!"
"It's true that your father knows magic, but he alone can't control your resurrection. You have to thank your mother for this matter. Your mother..."
Young Master Bai raised his head and looked around. When he saw that there were no ears or eyes around him, he continued, "Your mother is from our fifth family."
"Five Families?"
"That's right! Have you heard of fox yellow and white willow ash? Speaking of your mother, she is the apple of our eyes. Although she is from the Fox family, all four of us like her very much and treat her like a daughter. Treat it."
"It's a pity that such a good woman was deceived by your father, a human who knows magic."
"Hey! It's all good luck!"
Father looked at Young Master Bai carefully, and the more he looked, the more familiar he seemed. Especially those beards of his.
"Fox yellow and white willow ash, aren't these... the five great immortals?"
"You said, my mother is a fox fairy?"
"Silly boy!"
Young Master Bai looked at his father again and couldn't help but shook his head in disappointment.
Not to mention Young Master Bai, even his father himself found it incredible.
If he is so stupid and doesn't know any magic, could he be the son of the Fox Fairy?
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like it?
"Don't be stupid. While there is still time, go find a casserole and come over. Let's cook something to eat!"
After that, Master Bai took out a glittering brocade bag, grabbed it in his hand and shook it.
A lot of things fell out of the small kit, like magic.
"This is a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum. Silly boy, do you smell it?"
"And this ginseng, it's not even a thousand years, it's five hundred years old. You are very lucky. When I celebrated my birthday, Grandma Bai was reluctant to let me eat it. But now she gives it to a silly boy like you. What a waste!" "
"This deer antler is not bad either..."
"And this deer whip, it's so big that only the Deer King deserves to own it!"
"Grandma! You are too partial!"
"This... such a fat bear paw!"
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Seeing more and more treasures, Master Bai was so angry that he ran three times in the yard.
"Boy, go and make a stew. You eat the meat and I drink the soup. I can't take advantage of you, kid."
The father looked confused.
"Um...Master Bai, why do you want me to take so many supplements?"
Master Bai said angrily: "Because you are going to the bridal chamber tonight, and I have already found out about your wife's background. It is said that she is very fierce! If I don't let you make up for it, I'm afraid that you will be squeezed dry by her!"
"Also, the attitude of the five families is very clear now. You are dead anyway, and we have no hope in you at all. Therefore, we can only place our hope in the next generation."
"The next generation?"
"That's right! Did you know that when you were just born, the five of us gathered together and the Hui family, who are good at divination, did a fortune-telling for you. The result was that the fortune-telling! It's not that ugly!"
"Hey! At that time, Mr. Gray was so dumbfounded by that hexagram that he thought his spiritual power had disappeared!"
"Hahaha!"
"The son of the majestic Fox Fairy is actually a waste! He was born with a Taoist body, but he has no spiritual roots!"
"It's just that you can't practice Taoism, you're still a living dead!"
"Such a result made the Hu family so angry that they vowed to cut off all contact with your father!"
"However, just seven days ago, your father suddenly came to our five families and asked the Hui family to tell your fortune again."
"What was the result?" asked the father.
"The results shocked all the five families! The hexagram showed that a silly boy like you actually has a son who is not only born with a Taoist body, but also has a pair of heavenly eyes that can see the heaven and the earth and recognize ghosts and gods..."
"That's why the five of us are willing to come out to protect you. Moreover, we have collected so many precious medicinal materials. I hope that you can take good care of yourself and give birth to a son as soon as possible, so that the five of us can open our eyes!"
"That son of yours is one of the best among men! Even my uncle, I can't wait!"
"Silly boy, go get some stew!"
"Let's stew it!"
