Chapter 33: Peng Zhe's Home

Originally...... His grandfather did not die, but was haunted by a strange thing, and he was always in the countryside of his hometown, but no one dared to approach him except his family,

And even his parents rarely went to see his grandfather, and he lived alone in a dilapidated old house, and now it is unknown what the situation is.

"I want to save my grandfather, so I ......" Peng Zhe covered his face, and his voice was full of tears.

I really didn't want to go in my heart, I just said so cruel words, but I didn't expect the actual situation to be like this.

"That...... I didn't mean it just now, don't take it to heart......" I touched my head a little embarrassed, embarrassed.

It turned out that he didn't want to betray me, he just wanted to take it to save his grandfather......

"This thing was originally yours, I thought too much......" Peng Zhe shook his head and smiled at me a little weakly.

I couldn't go away even more, and I blamed him for not saying anything and making him recall this bad past...... My heart was crossed, and I blurted out directly-

"Otherwise, I'll go back to my hometown with you and help your grandfather!"

When I had this idea in my head, I didn't expect it to come out of my mouth.

As soon as the words came out, Peng Zhe and I were stunned, he was stunned at first, and then suddenly stood up excitedly!

I was about to explain what I meant, but suddenly he hugged me hard!

I froze in place, but he patted me on the back!

"Thank you...... Thank you! There was a subtle tremor in his voice, but it choked on the words I wanted to say.

Just help him once, he saved my life, shouldn't it be time to reciprocate......

I silently thought in my heart, even if I was afraid, I nodded slowly.

And...... I actually wanted to see if this bone was really as amazing as I imagined......

Can you help me keep the goblin at bay?

……

Within a few days, Peng Zhe and I asked for leave with the instructor, who was originally a difficult instructor, because he had always been afraid of us because of the previous things, and he was afraid that we would get sick, so he was granted leave without saying a word.

I didn't expect it to go this way.

After taking leave and returning to the dormitory, he found that Peng Zhe had already packed up his things.

"What is this?" I picked up a book on top of my backpack, and the title page of the tattered book was gone, and I don't know if it was turned out of that corner.

"The simple reading of the "Diamond Sutra", I think it still works, and it is always more reassuring to bring it." Peng Zhe scratched his head embarrassedly, most of this thing was found from Du Jiang, he always liked to pile up these miscellaneous things in the dormitory.

However, the mahogany sword was not included.

"Where's your home?" It was only then that I realized that my understanding of Peng Zhe was limited to him as a person, and I could even say that I didn't know anything about his family.

"It's in the village of the county near City B, and there is a bus to get there." Peng Zhe patted me on the shoulder comfortingly.

I had a natural fear of the countryside in ghost stories, and I shuddered to hear him say that.

"Don't be afraid, this bone is effective for ordinary ghosts."

……

After several bus trips, just when I was dizzy, Peng Zhe told me that I had arrived in the village.

I didn't throw up, but I didn't get any better.

"I haven't told my parents yet, but I should be there before dark, don't worry!" Peng Zhe patted me on the shoulder comfortingly.

I just wanted to get a good night's sleep now, and I didn't want to say anything, so I just nodded.

Their village was at the end of the road, two or three stops away from the station, and we had to walk the rest.

I didn't know that there was such a remote place in City B, but now it is an eye-opener, with large flowers blooming in the forest, if it weren't for Peng Zhe explaining the past of their village, I even think this is a paradise.

But...... The thought of what he said gave me a shiver for no reason.

It's really a ghost village, right?

Fortunately, I was smart in my hands, although I saw some strange things on the road, they didn't attack us, and we arrived at Peng Zhe's house smoothly before dark.

His home is different from what I imagined, I thought that the house in the village should be heard, but I didn't expect it to be a two-story building, but the wall skin is a little peeling, and I can't see the previous color for a long time.

At the door, a middle-aged woman was packing up her things.

"Mother! I am back! Peng Zhe, who was beside him, shouted and ran towards the woman.

The woman was slightly stunned, and immediately looked at the two of us after hearing Peng Zhe's voice-

I almost fell to the ground with a slam on my feet!

The woman's face...... Half of the muscles actually atrophied, and at this time, they were drooping on the side of their face full of wrinkles, and they had no figure in any eye, as if they had been robbed of their brilliance!

I subconsciously opened my eyes and walked forward as if nothing was wrong!

Why didn't Peng Zhe tell me that he had such a strange illness......

"Mother, this is Lu Yan, my roommate, he has nowhere to go during the recent school vacation, so I will take it home!" Peng Zhe explained loudly, and I had to smile awkwardly.

The woman didn't seem surprised by my arrival, but after looking me up and down, she smiled slightly.

But...... Half of her face was implicated by this smile, and the whole face slowly showed a strange arc, and I was so frightened that I immediately looked away......

There seemed to be some kind of magic in his eyes that scared me......

After dinner, I met Peng Zhe's father, a farmer who seemed to be honest, and he didn't say anything, just told us not to go out and walk around at night, it was very dangerous.

But he didn't explain the specific reason, but he just glanced at Peng Zhe meaningfully, and he seemed to understand what it meant.

"What do you mean, your dad?" After returning to Peng Zhe's room, I looked at him curiously.

"Alas, Uncle Zhang from the same village has passed away, and he is doing a funeral in the past two days, so it is scary to go to the province elsewhere in the evening." Peng Zhe sighed helplessly.

When I heard the dead man, I was so frightened that I couldn't laugh, I thought it was something, but I didn't expect it......

"That'...... Your grandfather ...... "I said with some caution, I never saw where the man I was trying to help was.

"Grandpa is not at home, in a small shed on the edge of the village." Peng Zhe didn't worry too much and explained to me.

But tonight was obviously not the time for us to leave to find his grandfather, so we had to leave again the next day.

Early the next morning, I was woken up by the crowing of chickens, and when I looked at my watch, it was only six o'clock.

I wanted to go back to sleep, but Peng Zehe next to me suddenly pushed me.

"Alas, are you awake? Take you to a place and it's definitely okay now. Peng Zhe whispered something in my ear, and my curiosity was immediately aroused.

Regardless of the drowsy insects, I picked up my clothes and followed Peng Zhe out cautiously.

It seems that he is going to a place that his father will not let him go, otherwise he would not be so cautious. Thinking of this, my mood also became excited!

After "...... shhh

It was still early in late summer, and it was already fully light, but I didn't see anyone else in the village.

Every house here lives a short distance away, but I haven't seen anyone other than her parents since I came here yesterday!

I couldn't help but wonder a little, but I didn't take it to heart when I thought that it wasn't appropriate to go out last night.

"Where are we going...... "Peng Zhe led me into an overgrown haystack near the house, where the overgrown ground was densely packed with all kinds of plants that I couldn't name.

At the end of the haystack, a dilapidated log cabin was leaning on a rickety basis, as if it were about to fall when the wind blew.

"My grandfather is here, didn't he ask yesterday?" Peng Zhe's expression was also a little nervous, and his hands were also rubbing his fists.

I followed Peng Zhe and cautiously walked towards the dilapidated wooden house, with a pile of erected grass in the middle, adding an eerie ......

Walking into the haystack, I felt a bad feeling, as if a yin wind was slowly blowing around me, freezing my back with goosebumps.

I clung to the bone, and as long as it was there, I could at least have some comfort in my heart......

Squeak...... The old wooden door made a creepy sound, and I couldn't help but shudder and shrink behind Peng Zhe.

The door slowly opened, and I was a little afraid to look at it......

"Grandpa?" Peng Zhe's voice suddenly sounded in front of me, and I stuck out my head to look ahead, but I didn't see anyone.

Peng Zhe gave me a strange look, "How could Grandpa not be there?" He will wait for my ...... when I come back before."

He muttered to himself as he went in and fiddled with the contents.

I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, listening to Peng Zhe's statement that his grandfather seemed to be entangled in something bad, so I was scared.

But I was a little relieved that I didn't see it......

"Did you go out for a walk? It's pretty cool now, maybe—"

"Impossible." Peng Zhe interrupted me, "Grandpa is not in good health, he almost never goes out, and only comes out at night!" ”

I was slightly stunned, and a chill slowly rose up in my back......

It was obviously forbidden to travel at night, but his grandfather was ......

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that grandpa is the guardian of this wood, so he often goes out at night." Peng Zhe explained to me at this time.

This wood...... When I came yesterday, I saw that this forest is not as big as a football field, and the trees are all sparse, and some have even died for an unknown amount of time, and are rotting.

His grandfather turned out to be the guardian here?
