C47

Standing on the balcony, blowing on the cool night wind, I dialed Zuo Xin Tong's number.

"Hey, Le Le! Let me tell you, I'm going to die slow today. After finishing my work in the company during the day and updating my novel at night, I'm really ? "So I mean, I forgot to call you back today. Sorry."

It's actually very rare for me to hear a sincere apology from Zuo Xin Tong, but my mind is a little muddled right now, so I don't care about this at all.

"Zuo Xin Tong, I want to ask you this. The car that was following your car yesterday, have you finished repairing it?" I asked anxiously.

"It's fixed! He drove off today. Why did you ask that all of a sudden? " Zuo Xin Tong asked curiously.

"I just saw a piece of news. There was a traffic accident at the place where we collided with him yesterday. A car crashed into a tree by the roadside. I think that car is the same one from yesterday." I think I'm talking incoherently.

"Dead?" Zuo Xin Tong asked.

"From the news, it seems like he didn't die, the ambulance was sent to Renmin Hospital." I replied.

"It's the Renmin Hospital again." Zuo Xin Tong keenly noticed this point.

"Zuo Xin Tong... To tell you the truth, it's not like you did anything to repair the car! " I asked, worried.

"What a joke! I don't have the time. " Zuo Xin Tong could faintly hear the sound of the keyboard typing. Seems like she was extremely busy, she did not even forget to type a few words into the computer while she was busy making her phone calls.

"Alright, you're busy." I hung up and found Wen Chu Yang leaning on me with his arms crossed over his chest. His nose was a little red, obviously the impact from earlier was too much.

"Wen Chu Yang, what do you think?" I put down my cell phone, feeling vaguely uneasy.

"You suspect the old lady in white?" Wen Chu Yang lowered his head, and played with the fan in his hand.

"I'm just suspicious. What do you think?" I asked Wen Chu Yang.

"I don't have any opinions, but I don't feel any resentment from her body. Her soul is still very clean. But such a soul is still stuck in the human world. There must be some unfulfilled wish. " Wen Chu Yang said, then used the fan in his hand to pat himself on the shoulder and laughed: "Like me."

"Now that you say it like that, I remember, she did say she wanted to ask Qi Zi Yi for help. I just don't know what it is. " I'm a little regretful now. If I had listened to her wish back then, I might not be so clueless now.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from inside the house, followed by the sound of a bowl breaking.

After Wen Chu Yang and I looked at each other, we immediately pulled open the door and rushed in. The dining table in the living room had already been completely flipped over and the plates and bowls were still constantly being broken, so Father, afraid that Mom would get hurt, was protecting her.

Although they couldn't see, I could see clearly that Third Granduncle was using his walking stick to smash the bowl on the ground, causing it to shatter, in order to create a threatening effect.

"Le Le, come here quickly! The Third Granduncle is here! " My mother beckoned to me nervously.

"Yeah, I saw him." My tone was calm, my gaze never left Third Granduncle's stooped body, thinking, so it turns out that this old man only had the ability to smash other people's chopsticks?

However, when I thought about how my blind parents would be tortured like this every day, I suddenly felt displeased in my heart. Wen Chu Yang followed behind me and stood there, looking at the table full of food that was flipped over on the ground, he unconsciously frowned.

"Yue Le, you ?" You can see Third Granduncle? " Mom looked at me in surprise.

"Yeah, you can see it." I nodded and said to my dad, "Dad, you go in with my mom first. Leave the things here to me. "

"Yue Le, if you have anything to say, speak properly to Third Granduncle!" His father hesitated for a moment before finally agreeing. At first Mom didn't want to go into the back room with me, she wanted to stay with me, but finally, at Dad's persuasion, they both went back to the room and closed the door.

"Third Granduncle, didn't you just bury him to rest? Why do you keep coming here to cause trouble! " I looked at Third Granduncle with a smile, the same shrivelled and shrewd as the first time I saw him.

However, after such a long period of time, the mood I saw him in was completely different. I was no longer afraid of him, nor did I question him.

"If you don't come with me, I won't let your family live peacefully for even a day." Third Granduncle said as he straightened his back, brandishing his walking stick and was about to smash it onto the television.

Suddenly, Wen Chu Yang swept past my body like a gust of wind, and used the fan in his hand to block Third Granduncle's walking stick that had fallen to the ground.

"Heh heh, bad old man. Since this girl is unwilling to marry you, you should know your own limits. At your age, if you miss women, you can always find a suitable partner to match your age. Why are you always trying to chase after a little girl? " Wen Chu Yang's white figure landed in front of Third Granduncle.

The current scene looked extremely comical. Wen Chu Yang was dressed in white, with hair flowing down like a waterfall of snow and ink. Third Granduncle's face was filled with wrinkles, his back was hunched, and he looked very old.

It's hard to imagine that the two of them are fighting over me right now! Oh, there's still a little excitement in me at the thought.

"It's you again!" The way Third Granduncle stared at Wen Chu Yang couldn't even be described with words of hatred, it made sense. Back then, in order to save me, Wen Chu Yang caused a huge commotion at Third Granduncle's funeral, and even the dead treated it as a peace.

"It's not me again." Wen Chu Yang used the fan to push away Third Granduncle's walking stick. Then, he opened the fan with a swoosh, and fan the area in front of him with his movement, "The little miss has already agreed to marry me, so of course I won't be too far away from her. But old man, you are our witness! "

"Bastard!" Third Granduncle had never received such treatment in his life, he was so angry that he swung his walking stick at Wen Chu Yang.

Wen Chu Yang dodged the cane, avoided the cane, and teased Third Granduncle while smiling: "Bad old man, I knew you didn't have any evil intentions and didn't want to hurt you, so you should go to where you are going. As for that curse, the story of whole village dying, don't repeat it over and over again for us. As the saying goes, people have their own lives, so what do you want to forcefully change? It actually can't change much. "

"What do you mean by each of their lives!" Is the Longevity Village going to die because of this cursed little girl? " Third Granduncle was fuming with anger.

"Then this girl will be born in your village! It was also your fate that led you to this calamity. " Wen Chu Yang said unconcernedly, "Since fate has been decided, then there is no need to painstakingly change it. "You might as well live a virtuous life and pray for a good family in your next life."

"You ? "You ?" Third Granduncle pointed at Wen Chu Yang, so angry he could not speak for a long time. Perhaps he felt that he was no match for Wen Chu Yang in terms of words or strength, so he turned his head and faced me, and questioned me with a tone that seemed to be filled with disappointment: "Mi Le Le, don't tell me that you really aren't considering the safety of your own village? Their lives are in your hands! "

"Third Granduncle, you must be joking. Their life and death were determined by them. What could a twenty year old girl like me do? The first time he returned to the village after birth, he had a feeling of hometown. However, the moment he entered the village, he was tied up by all sorts of villagers and prepared to bury him alive in a coffin. Third Granduncle, you actually want me to think about those people who almost killed me? That was also death, so why didn't they consider the desire of a young girl like me to live on? "

I didn't think that this matter that concerned my life could be said out with a smile. To be honest, whether or not I was a calamity or a cursed person, I didn't care, but what I cared about was that the villagers were full of malice towards me.

They didn't treat me well, they didn't comfort me, they didn't tell me the whole story, they just simply and roughly wanted to nail me, a living person, directly into a coffin.

I cannot accept, much less forgive, such an act.

Now you're saying that you want me to sacrifice myself for such a group of people!

Is this a joke?

"Mi Le Le, are you not afraid that your ancestor's grave will be dug up!?" Third Granduncle's expression became gloomy, and his tone carried an irresistible threat.

"Digging into my ancestor's grave? Hehe, Third Granduncle, you must be getting old! " I looked at him with disdain and sneered, "Even if you instigate the entire village to dig up my ancestor's grave, my ancestors would still take it all to heart. They would definitely not tolerate a group of people who wanted to kill his descendants and dig their own grave! Third Granduncle, if the villagers really do that, who do you think will be the one to take revenge for my ancestors who have long been buried in the ground and suddenly become like corpses in the wild, under the sun? "

It was clear that Third Granduncle did not expect me to say these words. He stared at me blankly for a long time, and finally let out a deep sigh as he muttered to himself, "Could it be that the heavens really want my Longevity Village to die?!"

"Third Granduncle, you're thinking too much." I really want to advise this old man. What if he was wrong?

"Shut up! You unfilial descendant! You are not fit to be a member of the Longevity Village! " Third Granduncle held onto his walking stick, and knocked on the ground, "I'll be leaving today, you should think about it carefully, I'll come back in a few days!"

With that, the Third Granduncle walked out the door and disappeared.

"Huff ?" I let out a long breath and looked at the mess on the floor. I thought I had wasted so many delicious dishes, but my stomach was still growling.

"Delightful... Your Third Granduncle has left? " Mom and Dad saw that I was no longer talking to the air, so they came out of the room to ask me.

"He's gone, but he said he would come back in a few days." As soon as I said that, I regretted it, because my mother's face immediately turned ugly.
