Old man Zuo carried Chen Yun on his back and ran as fast as he could, right back to the yard at the edge of his village.
He pushed Chen Yun on his back and pushed open the courtyard door. As soon as he put away the key, he saw Miss Ninth holding a hatchet in her hand and holding a big rooster in her arms, blocking the door of the main room.
There were several people hiding in the room shivering, including Liu Er's wife and children, as well as Dunzi.
Seeing that he was back, Miss Ninth breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw Chen Yun on his back, she quickly put down the big cock in her arms and the knife in her hand, and came forward.
"Grandpa, sir, what's going on? We seemed to hear a strange roar just now!"
Old man Zuo didn't dare to say more: "I just fell asleep, it's okay. From the Liu family, your head is also asleep next to the Tutu Temple. Go and help him back!"
It's okay! "
When Liu Er's mother-in-law heard this, she was so frightened that she quickly asked what was going on. Old man Zuo quickly assured that he was just asleep and asked her to help him back. Almost everyone in the village except the children was sleeping there.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she quickly led the child and ran towards the Earth Temple.
When she went out, Old Man Zuo quickly told Miss Ninth to close the door. He carried Chen Yun into the house and put her on the bed.
"Brother-in-law, what's going on?"
Dunzi asked curiously, completely forgetting that he was trembling with fear just now.
"I'm too tired. I just fell asleep. I'll be fine when I wake up!" the old man replied perfunctorily.
After Miss Ninth entered the house, the old man put the big rooster on the ground into Dunzi's arms: "Dunzi, take some grass and millet and feed the chickens in the yard!"
"Okay!" Xiao Dunzi nodded seriously, and went out with difficulty holding the big cock.
"Grandpa, what happened to my husband?"
Miss Jiu realized that Chen Yun had fallen asleep, which might be a big deal.
Old Man Zuo originally wanted to tell Miss Jiu everything, and then told her to wake Chen Yun up after a few years.
But just as he was about to leave his mouth, he added a sentence in front of what he wanted to say.
"I vaguely feel something is wrong about this, but I don't know where it is wrong. I will tell you what happened and listen. Is there anything wrong?
You know, I am getting old, seventy-one years old, and it is inevitable that I will be confused sometimes.
But you are different. You have been smart since you were a child. Otherwise, you would not be able to stop the people of your own clan from eating up your family as a female. This is definitely not something that can be stopped without getting married!
So come and listen to the whole story, I always feel uneasy! "
Miss Ninth also became serious, walked out of the room and told Dunzi: "Brother, you are accompanying the big rooster in the courtyard. If you hear someone coming, don't open the door and call us loudly. Do you understand?"
Dunzi nodded seriously: "I understand, sister!"
Miss Jiu then returned to the bedside, looked at Chen Yun who had fallen asleep, held his hand, and said to Old Man Zuo: "Okay, grandpa, tell me!"
"The thing is like this..."
Old Man Zuo told Miss Ninth everything that happened from the time they left the courtyard to the time he came back with them on his back.
Although Miss Ninth is smart, tough-minded, and always decisive, after listening to Old Man Zuo's description, she suddenly felt that something was wrong with her whole person.
This opened up a fantasy world for her, and the most magical thing was her newly married husband, who was lying on the bed and fell asleep at the moment, unaware of everything.
After Old Man Zuo told the story from beginning to end, he said to Miss Ninth: "You were his wife originally. I carried her back because I wanted you to wake her up at the right time, no matter five or ten years!"
But on the way back from the Tutu Temple, the more I walked, the more I felt something was wrong, but I didn’t know where it was.
The more I think about it, the weirder it becomes, but I don’t know where it is weird!
But all this must be decided before I fall asleep tonight!
Otherwise, after sleeping tonight, I may not remember anything, not his original name, and even less likely to wake him up!
If what the old ghost said was true, even those who were hit by luck on the spot might forget his original name.
But you are smart, come and help me think about it, what's wrong? "
At this time, Miss Ninth's mind was in a mess. She had never encountered such a fantastic thing. How could she make a decision?
But suddenly, Old Man Zuo's words "If what that old ghost said is true..." were like a bolt of lightning, splitting the chaos in her mind.
Miss Ninth quickly sat up straight and said to Old Man Zuo: "Grandpa, tell me again from beginning to end!
I seem to have found some clues! "
When Old Man Zuo heard what he said, he didn't waste any time and said it again from beginning to end!
Finally, Miss Ninth grasped the key point.
"This old man is so verbose! He's so kind! Everything is just right!
The most important thing is that the old ghost is a ghost!
And he knows so much! "
He knows too much!
Miss Jiu woke up the dreamer with her words. After Old Man Zuo told the story twice, he also felt something was wrong.
Miss Ninth continued: "Furthermore, not all people who know Mr. Xian's name have been struck by luck.
For example, Aunt Liu who ran out just now, and the other aunts and sisters-in-law who were not invited to burn the Earth Temple together, all know the husband's name.
Even my brother Dunzi knows that his brother-in-law is called Chen Yun!
The most important thing is that even the 500-year-old weasel demon who has been thinking about my husband-in-law on the mountain and that litter of weasels also remember my husband-in-law’s name!
However, I am the only one who cannot remember it!
This is very wrong!
Since there are so many people who remember my husband's name, it is impossible for my husband not to hear this name for five or ten years.
Therefore, what this old ghost wants to do is to seal off my husband's luck for a short time, not the length of time. In my opinion, five or ten years is just this old ghost's deception. "
Old Man Zuo was immediately impressed by Miss Ninth's words, but he didn't say anything and just listened to Miss Ninth continue speaking.
"Grandpa, you know that my father was also a scholar, otherwise the family would not have 6 acres of land left after the great changes.
My father once said, respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them. Why?
He said: The gods are far-reaching, and ordinary mortals are like ants in front of them. The gods view mortals as humans view ants. Will humans have compassion for ants?
Therefore, for ordinary mortals, gods are not approachable, so they should stay at a respectful distance!
My father was calm when he taught that gods should be kept at a respectful distance, but when it came to ghosts, his face was full of hatred.
My father said that he had read many miscellaneous books, but he had never recorded any good deeds by ghosts. The ghost stories recorded in books were almost always dead or injured, because for ghosts, mortals were food.
And regardless of any record, there is a sentence added before the record, that is: ghost talk, deceiving people's hearts, and cannot be trusted!
But Grandpa, the old ghost you just mentioned is too kind, something is wrong!
You are my husband's grandpa, and you have no children. You regard your husband as your own grandson, and you do everything you can to be kind to him!
I am my husband's wife. From the day we got married, we have both prospered and suffered losses. It is reasonable for us to help each other in the same boat.
But for such an old ghost, he was about to enter reincarnation, or he was about to disappear at that time, so why should he be so kind? "
Old man Zuo thought about it carefully. He didn't think it at the time. But now after hearing what Miss Ninth said and thinking about it carefully, there was indeed something wrong with that old ghost!
And it’s too wordy!
They are about to die, dissipate and reincarnate, and they still talk about the causes and consequences.
After thinking about it carefully, this seems to be a game.
Just like marching to war, this seems to be an ambush.
"Grandpa, what should we do if this is a trap?"
Although Miss Ninth is not frightened now, she is still young, but in this world, if she had been someone else, she might have been the mother of a baby.
His mind has matured long ago, and if he didn't have such a mind, his family would have been wiped out long ago, so how could he survive until now.
After Old Man Zuo found the crux, he also had an idea: "From beginning to end, this is a game, but fortunately it is not a dead game yet!
From the moment Chen Yun appeared in this world, he may have been targeted by others. They were targeting Chen Yun and did not dare to touch him just because of his great luck!
Now, they set up a trap for me to seal Chen Yun’s luck..."
Miss Ninth intervened at this time: "Grandpa, there is also destiny. My father also said that names represent destiny!
Sealing his name means sealing his fate! "
"Yeah! It's all the same!
Just because of his majestic aura and destiny, they couldn't touch Chen Yun, but it was obvious that they were very greedy!
They are very greedy for Chen Yun's luck and fate.
So, the other party started to set up a trap!
The weasel seeking to be sealed is a game, the weasel's revenge is also a game, and even the ghost on your brother Dunzi's back is also a game!
Even the 300-year-old white-flowered snake demon in the Earth Temple is a game, and the old ghost is a game within a game!
But who set this up?
Is it the 500-year-old weasel on the mountain?
It doesn’t feel like much! "
Old Man Zuo thought for a while and gritted his teeth: "No matter who set up this trap against Chen Yun, as long as the trap is broken, everything will be fine!
According to my decades of experience in marching and fighting, the more the enemy does not let our troops go, the more our troops will go!
The more the enemy does not let our army do something, the more our army will do it.
This is the simplest and most direct way to break the situation! "
Miss Jiu nodded: "What do you mean, grandpa, just wake up Chen Yun directly?"
"Yes!" Old Man Zuo thought that there was no other way to break the situation.
Because he felt that since the other party had set up this trap to seal Chen Yun's luck and destiny, he would not give him too much time to react, even if he might never be able to react.
Although the old ghost said before entering reincarnation that if Chen Yun was awakened within 5 years, he might turn into a crazy dragon.
But just as Miss Ninth said, ghost talk can confuse people's hearts and cannot be trusted!
Miss Ninth had already helped Chen Yun up, holding a wet towel soaked in well water. The well water was very cold, and the towel was also very cold.
She just put a wet towel gently on Chen Yun's face, trying to use the coldness to stimulate Chen Yun to wake up, but Chen Yun had no reaction.
At this time, the rooster that was playing with Dunzi in the courtyard suddenly clucked crazily, and then Dunzi's cry came from the courtyard: "Sister, the big rooster is hitting me!"
