C155 Could It be That This Was a Bad Omen?

"Dad, what happened? Did Captain Guan kill those wild wolves? " Fan Wengong saw that his father stopped talking and stopped smoking and drinking tea. He asked impatiently. He was completely fascinated by this legendary story. The more he listened, the more interested he felt.

Fan Youmin did not immediately answer his son's question. He just silently smoked and drank tea. Although his expression was unusually cold, the attentive Fan Wenbin still discovered that his cold expression could not hide the violent waves rolling in his heart.

From the story of the second generation's ancestor Fan Jinggeng that his father had just told him, he seemed to have faintly sensed something. Thinking back carefully, his father and mother had made several phone calls early in the morning, anxiously asking him to go home. Only then did he feel that something was wrong.

In this very ancient and mysterious story, the first generation ancestor of the Fan Family, the founder of the Fan Family in Daan, Fan Shide, and his eldest son, Fan Weigeng, died on the second day after they heard the howling of the wild wolves.

Could it be that his father had heard some special meaning from the sudden howls of the wolves that happened in the middle of the night last night? When he thought of this, Fan Wenbin came to a realization. He understood the real reason why his parents called him urgently to hurry home.

Could it be that today, more than two hundred years later, a terrifying incident of his father and brother inexplicably dying would occur in the Fan family? Impossible, absolutely impossible. In the end, he firmly shook his head, and in the depths of his heart, he firmly denied this kind of almost fantasy-like idea.

At the same time, when he told this mysterious story that was full of mysteries to his father and spoke the truth, he also became suspicious, developing a type of firm and unyielding mentality. It was because this story was too miraculous! It was so magical that it made people have no choice but to develop heavy suspicions.

Fan Wenbin was almost fifty years old this year. He had heard many legends about the Fan family's survival and development in the past two hundred years. However, this was the first time he had heard such a bizarre story like what his father had told him. Moreover, he had heard it with his own ears.

According to his understanding, this story had a very close relationship with the Fan family's future prosperity and glory. When his grandfather Fan Zhengkun lived, he would probably tell it to his descendants, and it would also be remembered by them forever. However, Fan Wenbin had never heard of it.

Could it be that his father fabricated it? Fan Wenbin shook his head. He firmly denied this view. Then, whether it was real or fake, he was unable to say for a moment.

"Dad, go on. In the end, did the Chief of Police solve the case?" Fan Wengong anxiously urged again and again. He even used a slightly dissatisfied tone to say, "Don't just drink tea and smoke. Don't talk. "

This morning, when he was still sleeping, he received an urgent call from his father. He quickly ran over. After listening to his father's narration, he was very surprised, but at the same time, he had a deep suspicion of his father's words. His house was not far from his father's house, and the house was built in his own contracted land at the village entrance.

In the early 90s, after Fan Wengong got married, due to his wife and mother frequently having conflicts, he finally got approval from the Mei Ban Village Government and the village committee to build a few houses in his own contracted land and move out with his wife and children.

At that time, in the countryside, every household was very poor. Old, old, young, big and small families lived together. It was a common occurrence to live in a courtyard. There were too many people talking, and when one looked up, one could see that there was a lot of conflict between the father and the son. It was very normal.

As the saying went, every family had a scripture that was difficult to read, and the Fan family was no exception. Wang Fang and her daughter-in-law had quarrels every day, and sometimes they even touched each other, making Fan Youmin so angry that Fan Youmin did not have any temper. Fan Wengong felt that if this continued, it would not be a good idea. In a fit of anger, he would start another fire, so as to avoid getting angry every day when they met.

The two families weren't far from each other, and they were in the same village. If it was really as his father had said, last night at midnight, a group of wild wolves surrounded the courtyard where his parents lived. They howled in the middle of the night. Then, no matter how much he slept, it was impossible for him to not hear a bit of sound.

Besides, even if he slept very soundly and did not hear it, he still had his wife and children. It was impossible for the whole family to sleep like a dead pig. The wolf's howl was so loud that it rang through the middle of the night, but it couldn't be heard at all.

Of course, if the whole family could not hear it, there was only one situation. That was, the whole family was dead. If they really slept to death, then they really wouldn't be able to hear the wolf howls in the middle of the night.

Later, with such a ridiculous doubt, Fan Wengong asked his neighbors and got an answer. It was the same. He did not hear anything, let alone the wolf howling. There were even people who thought Fan Wengong had come to their house early in the morning and asked if there was something wrong with his brain.

After hearing the same answer from the neighbors, Fan Wengong naturally did not believe his father's words. However, he saw that his father and mother did not seem to be lying to him. They said it very well, and he was skeptical. He thought to himself, What exactly is going on?

Until now, after hearing the very ancient and almost absurd story that his father had told him, just like his elder brother, Fan Wenbin, a trace of inauspiciousness was naturally born in his heart.

When Wang Fang saw that her son was anxious to know the outcome of the story, she actually could not help but interrupt and say, "Don't be anxious, tell your father to slow down for a while. The wild wolf ran away long ago, and it was not behind his butt. Why should he be anxious?"

Perhaps it was because she hated the fact that Fan Wengong and her family had lived under the same roof for a few years. He had also stirred up a spoon in a pot for a few years and had even quarreled with his wife countless times. Therefore, she was a little disgusted with her son and did not like him at all. In her heart, her eldest son's family was the best.

A long time ago, not long after she married Fan Youmin, Wang Fang had heard her husband tell her this story. At that time, there was no television or other entertainment activities. Once it was dark, everyone went to bed to sleep. They had a hard day in the production team like donkeys. They were so tired that they just wanted to eat and have a good sleep.

One night, her husband could not sleep. In the darkness, he told her this magical story very bored. Of course, there were other stories. However, this story was the most magical. It was so magical that it made her afraid of hearing the howls of wild wolves.

Although many years had passed and she had not heard the howls of wild wolves, when she thought of this story, her heart could not help but tremble. She was worried that sooner or later, she would hear the howling of wild wolves outside her yard in the middle of the night.

It was precisely because of that old saying that whatever she feared would come. Last night, when the first howl of the wild wolf sounded, Wang Fang was immediately awakened. Upon hearing it carefully, it was indeed the howl of the wolf. Immediately, she couldn't help but think of this very mysterious and terrifying story.

She held her violently beating heart and did not dare to make a sound, nor did she dare to wake her husband who was still sleeping soundly. She just lay on the bed and opened her eyes wide, silently listening to the increasingly intense and terrifying howl of a wolf. Her heartbeat also became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to burst out from her chest.

Very soon, Fan Youmin was also woken up by the fierce wolf howl. He asked his wife in a daze, what was that sound? After a moment, he heard it clearly and then said to himself, "So it's the wolf's howl. Now there's a wolf. I haven't heard a wolf cry for a long time. "

When he was young, it was probably in the 50s and 60s of the last century when he followed his father, Fan Zhengkun, to work in the fields. In the back mountains, he could occasionally see wild wolves and foxes. Later on, he rarely saw these wild animals.

How many years had passed? Now, not to mention seeing wolves, even if he wanted to pick up wolf dung, he would not be able to find even a little bit. Even a very remote and desolate place like the Red Groove was nowhere to be found. There were no signs of humans or wolves all year round, let alone in a place with a very dense population on both sides of the Yellow River.

Just like his wife, the moment he heard the howl of the wolves, he could not help but think of this story that he had heard from his grandfather. Then, he suddenly sat up with a frightened and fearful expression. After listening for a moment, he finally believed that it was indeed the howl of a wild wolf. There was nothing wrong with it.

Immediately after, a subtle feeling surged out from the depths of his Dantian. Very quickly, it covered his entire body and tightly gripped his heart towards an invisible large hand, causing Fan Youmin to involuntarily feel nervous and afraid.

Just like his father, Fan Zhengkun, who was once the head of a big family, he had also been very bold since he was young. Naturally, he was not a person who was afraid of trouble. However, at this moment, he still faintly felt a trace of fear. Moreover, this fear was mixed with a strong sense of unease that covered his entire body.

After a short while, he wanted to go out and take a look, but his wife held him tightly and softly advised him not to go out at this time. Once he went out, he might not be able to come back. You have to know how the ancestors of the Fan family died.

So, with the same complicated feelings, the old couple laid on the bed and did not sleep again. They opened their eyes wide and waited until the sky was bright and the wolf howls stopped. Fan Youmin then went out to take a look. Behind the hall, he found a pile of cold wolf dung covered in a thin layer of frost.

After that, the old couple discussed and decided to quickly call their sons and ask them to hurry back. On the phone, they only said that something happened at home, but they didn't say the truth about the wild wolf that came at night. They were worried that their sons wouldn't believe it and wouldn't come back.

At this moment, seeing that his father was talking about the most critical moment, smoking and drinking tea, and did not continue, Fan Wengong could not help but ask with great interest, "Dad, what happened after that? Has this case been solved by the chief of the police?

Fan Youmin finished smoking a cigarette and took another sip of tea. His cold eyes slowly swept across the crowd and sighed heavily. Finally, he said something unexpected in a deep voice. "The night when the captain was locked up, he was bitten to death by a wild wolf in the Fan Family Compound. "

This sentence greatly exceeded Fan Wengong's expectations. He stared at his father in disbelief for a moment, then turned around to look at his elder brother, Fan Wenbin. After a long time, he let out a long sigh, and after letting out a sigh, he muttered to himself, "How could it be like this?"

Seeing her son looking at her with a puzzled look, Wang Fang could not help but interrupt. "Your father heard the same thing as I did. That night, the police officer was indeed bitten to death by the wild wolf in the Fan family's compound. Your dad didn't lie to you. It's true.

For a moment, none of them said anything. The room was filled with a very depressing atmosphere. Everyone was immersed in this very ancient and almost absurd story. Their hearts were heavy and uncomfortable.

In order to solve the truth of his father and brother's death, Fan Jinggeng did not hesitate to spend a large sum of money to invite the famous expert who solved the case to the provincial capital, Chief Guan. In the end, Chief Guan was bitten to death by a wild wolf in the Fan family courtyard. Furthermore, right under his nose, this was something that Fan Jinggeng would never have thought of.

"What happened after that?" After a long while, Fan Wengong asked in a soft voice. He felt that even if Captain Guan was bitten to death by a wild wolf under his nose, Fan Jinggeng would not stop there. This second generation ancestor of the Fan Family was not a person who would shrink back or even feel disheartened when faced with setbacks.

Before Fan Youmin could speak, the curtain was lifted and the third son, Fan Wenlin, walked in with a cold expression. He glanced at him nervously and quickly. Everyone in the room glanced at him. Finally, they looked at their father's face with doubt and anxiously asked, "Dad, what happened at home?"

This morning, he and his wife, Liu Aijuan, were just about to go to work when they received an urgent call from their father. Immediately, they were given a big fright by their father's words. They quickly discussed with their wives and called the Water Conservancy Bureau leader to apply for leave. Only then did they ride the electric scooter and rush back to their hometown, facing the bone-piercing cold wind.

At first, he wanted to call his big brother Fan Wenbin, but was stopped by Liu Aijuan. She said angrily. "You have no future at all. You always look for your big brother, wanting to take advantage of him, and make Duan Xiangmei see me as a joke. "

Seeing his wife's angry look, Fan Wenlin chuckled. He smiled and didn't call his big brother anymore. In his home, regardless of whether it was big or small, or whether it was a light and heavy matter, it was all up to Liu Aijuan to decide. It was a very typical "wife housekeeper. "

In the mid-1990s, after Fan Wenlin graduated from the Provincial Water and Electricity School, he was assigned to work at the county Water and Water Bureau. After working face-to-face with Liu Aijuan for more than a year, he naturally became a couple.

Liu Aijuan's home in the county town didn't have much influence. Her uncle had once been the head of the Water Conservancy Bureau. When he was about to retire, he had thought of a way to get his niece in and become a temp.

When they first got married, the difference in their salaries was huge, and their status in the family could be considered equal. However, not long after, they had an opportunity. Liu Aijuan had become a civil servant who received the same national salary as Fan Wenlin. Their salaries were almost the same.

As a result, their status at home. . . A huge change naturally occurred. Liu Aijuan transformed into the highest ruler of the family. She didn't like her husband at all. She was very picky. In the end, he actually despised Fan Wenlin for being a village man. He was a born bumpkin who had worked for more than half his life. He couldn't even buy a house and let her stay in a single dormitory for many years.

After the New Year, Liu Aijuan insisted that she buy a new building in Tongsheng District with a mortgage loan. Finally, she moved out of the single dormitory of the Water Conservancy Bureau. The couple felt that the sky was especially blue, and the water in the Yellow River was especially clear. Their eyes were filled with green mountains, green rivers, and fragrant birds.

At first, according to Fan Wenlin's idea, if he wanted to buy a new house, he would buy the Sunshine Garden District, which was only one wall away from Tongsheng District. It was because the Garden District was developed by Hua Cheng Group. Looking at his younger brother's face, Fan Wenbin would definitely give him a huge discount. This way, he would be able to save a large sum of money.

However, just as his voice landed, it was criticized by Liu Aijuan like a firecracker. Her tone was very strict and fierce, as if she was criticizing her enemy. Fan Wenlin, who was criticized, was covered in dirt and could not say a word.

Finally, Fan Wenlin understood why Liu Aijuan bought a house in Tongsheng District instead of a cheap house in Yi Yuan District. There was only one purpose, and that was to not let Duan Xiangmei see her as a joke.

Sigh, a woman's hair is long and short-sighted. In order to not be worth a single cent of face, she would rather spend a few tens of thousands to buy a high-priced building than buy a cheap building that her big brother developed. This kind of straight line thinking made Fan Wenlin feel that it was very funny and also a bit inconceivable.

Today, after hanging up the emergency phone call from his father early in the morning, he wanted to contact his elder brother and go back to his hometown with him. Because he knew very well that his father must have called his big brother before he called him.

However, just as he was about to make the call, he saw Liu Aijuan glare at him. Fan Wenlin couldn't help but be terrified. He hurriedly turned off his phone and got on the electric scooter. Facing the cold wind, he hurried back to his hometown to see what kind of emergency had happened.

At that moment, seeing that his three sons had all returned, Fan Youmin repeated what had happened last night. Finally, he glanced at them and asked in a worried tone: "Tell me about it. Did the wolf howl last night foretell a bad omen?
