Chapter Seventy-Six: Nightmare
"Go, we've got to go."
"Oh, I know, junior brother." Mu said with a smile, and Jiao'er Lang walked towards the courtyard gate with his arms thrown around.
Shen Yan calmly looked at Mu Yanxiao's back and muttered: "If you want to know that this is the result, I shouldn't take her back, it's really troublesome." He shook his head.
Mu came to the door with a smile and raised his hand to gently tap the courtyard door.
Soon, the voice of the person came out.
"Who?"
"Ao, I'm Lu Yan's..."Mu smiled and stopped, counting the number of years, she was speechless.
In the next second, an old woman dressed in a coarse linen cloth opened the door and asked, "Do you know Lu Yan?" Asking, she glanced at Mu and smiled, stunned.
Mu Yan smiled: "I'm Lu Yan's... Friend's son. ”
"Oh." The old woman breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”
"My dad asked me to come and see his old friend, please ask him.."
"My brother died decades ago."
"Yes, then can I meet your parents, my father especially wants me to see the two elders for him." Mu Yan laughed and made it up.
The old woman's eyes sank and she said, "Why didn't your father come?" ”
"Oh, my dad is lazy, let me do everything, it just so happens that I recently negotiated a business around here, and then came." Mu smiled as much as he could, trying to make himself appear real.
"You're only a teenager." The old woman said, looked up and down again, and smiled: "It's really young and promising." ”
"Aang, thank you for the compliment." Mu smiled and pointed inside: "Can I go in." ”
"I can't." The old woman shook her head.
"Why?"
"My father and mother have said that no one will be allowed to enter our yard at will, because, maybe," the old woman pulled out a charm, "you are a monster." ”
Mu Yan looked at the demon blocking talisman in the old woman's hand with a surprised smile, thinking about the memories of the people in the village, and asked, "How can you have this?" ”
"Since my brother passed away, my father and mother have been studying all kinds of charms, and to be honest, everyone in the village will come to us to buy them."
"How did your brother die?" Mu asked with a smile and pretending not to know anything.
"My brother was killed by the rattan spirit in the dry well, but... If it weren't for that dryad, my brother wouldn't have been killed, it was because of her, my brother, that he died. The old woman began to weep as she spoke.
Mu smiled and looked at the old woman in front of him who was sad about what happened decades ago, and comforted: "Don't be sad, that, can I go and see your father, I'm not a monster." As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed the charm from the old woman's hand and put it on her head: "Look, it's okay. ”
The old woman looked at the charm on Mu Yanxiao's forehead, and was stunned and said, "Okay, but I'll tell you in advance, my father's brain is a little abnormal, and they may beat you." ”
"Huh?" Mu was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and took off the charm on his forehead and said, "Are your parents crazy? ”
"No, since my brother died, they have always had nightmares, every time they have a nightmare, the next day it will become abnormal, the two of them didn't come out for a day today, I think, it should be another nightmare, so," the old woman stepped aside: "You be careful." ”
"Okay." Mu smiled and agreed, full of apprehension.
The old woman looked at Mu Yanxiao's slightly frightened look on her face, and spit out a word: "Please." ”
Mu Yanxiao nodded dryly, and just took a step before he was tripped by the threshold, and while the old woman's eyes widened, Mu Yanxiao fell to the ground.
