After burying Li Youren's body, we headed to Lijiagou.
Along the way, everyone was quite silent and didn't say much.
Niu Bi, Niu Deheng and I were all tired, while Li Fang and Li Youde were depressed and sad, and naturally they had no desire to talk.
Xiao Yuan, the only one who might be chirping non-stop, has flown directly back to Lijiagou - you can tell Li Yuan the whole situation first so that he can be mentally prepared.
Sure enough, when we returned to the hunchbacked old man's house in Lijiagou, Li Yuan ran out of the yard, hugged Li Youde and cried.
Li Youde, who has always been very strict with his son, did not scold Li Yuan for crying and being unmanly. He also cried while holding his son.
The hunchbacked old man beside him shook his head and sighed.
This is really the Li family’s debt!
But speaking of it, they were also victims - it was all a conspiracy created by that crazy Taoist.
Anyway, this matter is finally over...
I will tell them when the mood of the three people in the Li family has stabilized a little.
"Boss Li, we have to go back to Chongqing as soon as possible. I don't want to skip school casually anymore. If you still want to rest in your hometown for a few more days, you can."
When Li Youde heard this, he quickly stood up.
"Brother Wu, let's go back with you! This time, I really want to thank you so much. You are the savior and reborn parent of our entire Li family."
What he said was true.
If we hadn't driven all night to come here to help - or if we had just hesitated, we would have wasted a few hours.
It is estimated that their family is afraid that only Li Yuan, a freshman in high school, will be left!
I feel at ease with Li Youde's gratitude.
"This old man is also responsible for your successful rescue this time. Originally, the people in Lijiagou were actually a little afraid of your family. After all, Li Fuxi has been causing trouble for several years and feels that it is unlucky. It's him. You took the initiative to come to your old house to find us and tell us about the situation back then."
Li Youde nodded vigorously and took the hand of the hunchbacked old man.
"I will also keep my kindness in mind. Are your grandchildren working in Fengjie County? I will take them to Yucheng City and arrange their jobs. I will also take you here to provide for them in their old age!"
"This can't be done. I'm not telling you these past events just for money..."
I smiled.
"Old man, don't refuse. You deserve this. Boss Li's family has a big business. As long as he can survive, how much more money can he make in the future?"
…
Half an hour later, we left Lijiagou.
After walking on the dirt road for another ten miles, we returned to the provincial highway.
Everyone got in the car and drove to Yucheng.
As soon as we left the mountains, the mobile phone signal was restored. As soon as I left, the ground vibrated and kept making a beeping sound...
At least twenty or thirty text messages flooded into my phone like crazy!
Niu Bidu joked that Brother Wu was really worried about a lot of people. He hadn't used his phone for a day or two, and he was almost full of text messages, right?
I clicked on my inbox and saw that it was basically from Yao Nan, Tang Xinyu, my dad, Wang Dachun...
[My deskmate, where did you go on the weekend? I can't get through the call. Please reply when you see the text message. 】——This is Yao Nan.
[Wu Zhong, are you free on Sunday? I want to go shopping and buy some clothes. I don’t know which ones look good. Can you accompany me? 】——This is Tang Xinyu.
[What is my son doing? The phone has no signal! Did he go to the mountains to do errands again? Pay attention to safety! I didn't tell your mother, otherwise she would be nagging and anxious again. By the way, your father and I have already rented my shop. 】——This is my dad.
[Angkor, do you want to go to an Internet cafe and play StarCraft or World of Warcraft with me online? 】——This is Wang Dachun.
These four people have sent seven or eight text messages, and this is just the content of one of them.
I felt that typing text messages was too troublesome, so I called my dad directly to reassure him.
As for Wang Dachun, just reply "I'm busy on the weekend" and that's it.
I guessed that Yao Nan and Tang Xinyu could make it back to Chongqing in the evening, so I asked them to have a late-night snack and discussed it in detail while we ate.
call!
After doing this, I took a deep breath, put down my phone and leaned back in my chair. Holding hands in a solid seal, entering a state of meditation with eyes closed...
After returning to Chongqing, Li Youde insisted on inviting me to his home and said he wanted to thank me.
"Boss Li is interested, thank you in advance. It is quite late today, and you have been tortured by the demon all night. Although you have taken the [Blood Recovery Pill] to supplement it, your body is actually still very weak. Go back and take a good rest first. Come on! Thank you and so on, the future will be long."
"Think of others in everything you do. Brother Wu taught me what it means to be a truly righteous person and a person among gods and immortals!"
Li Youde was deeply moved.
Of course I was embarrassed to tell him. In fact, it was mainly because I promised Yao Nan and Tang Xinyu that I would go back and treat them to a late-night snack tonight.
I'm afraid if I let them go again...
Tangtang should be fine, she is really gentle.
But Yao Nan, this arrogant little girl, is afraid that she will cause trouble again.
Xiao Yuan seemed to have read through my thoughts, so that after Li Youde and the other three left, she stared at me with contempt.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen such a handsome person!"
"Tsk, tsk, Wu boy, I find that you are getting thicker and thicker."
"Haha, each other."
…
To me, the end of the Li Yuan family's ancestor worship incident in Fengjie was just an ordinary episode in life. After returning to school, classes will continue.
The monthly exam is next week, so I need to review my homework more.
Although Master, this irresponsible woman, is no longer around, I still pretend that she is around and strictly demand my academic performance...
After the monthly exam was over, it happened to be time for the Eling Ghost Market to open again.
Of course I won't miss it.
And this time, Hu Xiaoyue also clamored to go with him - as a slave, it seemed to be a more reasonable request.
She said that she had been in Chongqing for a long time and no one had ever taken her to Eling Ghost Market.
"Master, you are my first time!"
I:"……"
"Get out of here! Although I know I took you with you to the ghost market for the first time, but don't make it so misleading."
"I know, Master, don't be angry."
Hu Xiaoyue looked like she honestly admitted her mistake.
I am really helpless!
Late Saturday night, we went to Eling Ghost Market.
I have been studying in Chongqing for more than half a year, and I am already familiar with it.
Even when I bought a ticket at the door and entered, I nodded and smiled at the two chubby black "cat kings".
After all, they both know my master!
Although Uncle Sun said he wasn't very familiar with me, and I didn't want to take the initiative to reveal my identity to get closer, it was still appropriate to just nod and become an acquaintance.
The two squatted there with a proud and incomprehensible expression - I guess they don't know why a "weak" monk like me always smiles at them?
When we entered the ghost market, except for Hu Xiaoyue, who had no experience, he followed me. The three guys, Niu Bi, Niu Deheng and Xiao Yuan, went to visit the stalls they were interested in...
