Chapter 3: Wang Daren's revenge

A few days later, my mother and Wang Daren mourned together in Kawada Village......

It was my biological mother, and on the day of my mother's funeral, my grandfather and I went to Kawada Village together.

The funeral ceremony in Kawada Village is the same as in Niujia Village, where the coffin must be carried around the village before being buried, and then the coffin must be carried up the mountain for burial.

It is said that the purpose of this is to leave a memory for the deceased, so that they can settle this period of grievances in the mortal world and reincarnate in the underworld with peace of mind.

However, when carrying the coffin around the village, it is important not to let the coffin hit the ground, otherwise, something bad will happen around the village.

Unfortunately, on the day of my mother's and Wang Daren's funeral, the rope on the coffin carrying Wang Daren suddenly broke.

As a result, Wang Daren's coffin smashed a large hole in the muddy ground, which frightened the Eight Immortals and nearby villagers.

According to our rules, from the moment the coffin is lifted, the coffin cannot touch the ground, and the coffin cannot be lowered until it reaches the cemetery.

Carrying the coffin is particular, and if the coffin is not carried well, the person who carries the coffin will be unlucky at home.

That day, after Wang Daren's coffin landed, all the eight immortals knelt in front of Wang Daren's coffin, and the grandfather kept screaming.

On top of that, they mumbled some strange things that I didn't understand.

My grandfather and I stood around the cemetery and watched as they buried Wang Daren and my mother together.

By the time my grandfather and I returned to Niujia Village, it was already half dark outside.

In the days since Wang Daren left, nothing had happened around our village.

But on the seventh day after Wang Daren left, there was a bloody disaster in the homes of the eight immortals who carried him up the mountain in Kawada Village.

Immediately afterward, one strange thing after another slowly happened around our Niujia Village.

On that day, it was dark and the whole sky was gray.

After a day in the mountains, I didn't catch any prey.

I was not willing to go back empty-handed, so I walked around the mountains for a while, hoping to meet some surprises.

As I was walking on the mountain, I walked into a bamboo forest.

The fog in the bamboo forest is heavy, and it is eerie everywhere.

At first, I didn't know where I had gone, but I remembered that I had been to this place until I saw the tombstone......

"Wang Daren's Tomb!"

These five big words appeared in front of my eyes, and in the dog days, I was scared out of a cold sweat.

At this moment, I only felt a cool swishing behind me, as if a pair of eyes were secretly peeking at me, observing my every move.

Now, what puzzles me the most is how I got here, and ...... And my mother's tombstone has disappeared in the bamboo forest.

I vividly remember that on the day my mother was buried, Wang Daren's tombstone was next to her tombstone.

But......

A gust of wind blew, and I shivered.

At this moment, Wang Daren's tombstone slowly approached me, and I felt like I was in a dream.

"Assert ......"

Immediately after, a shrill laughter erupted from the cemetery.

At the same time, a shadowy phantom appeared on Wang Daren's tombstone.

The phantom and blue light mingled and swayed in the wind in the bamboo forest.

"Could it be a corpse ......?"

When Wang Daren's tombstone was about to come to me, I suddenly woke up.

Then, I pulled out my legs and ran frantically towards the bamboo forest.

After leaving the bamboo forest, I continued to run down the hill without stopping, although I heard my grandfather's voice behind me, but after what had just happened, I would rather die than believe that my grandfather was behind me.

When I got home, I told my grandfather what happened to me today.

My grandfather's face changed in shock after hearing this: "It's not good, the first seven have just passed, this Wang Daren must be looking for us to take revenge." ”

"Grandpa, why did Wang Daren seek revenge on us?" I was puzzled.

"Do you think, a few days ago, the ghost door was opened, and after your father came back, Wang Daren and your mother's corpses appeared at the entrance of our Niujia Village the next day, don't you think this matter is a bit strange?"

After Grandpa finished speaking, it dawned on me.

"Also, when Wang Daren was carried by the Eight Immortals in Hetian Village, the rope suddenly broke." Grandpa continued: "Only the rope of a person who dies suddenly breaks, otherwise, how could such a strong rope break for no reason. ”

"Grandpa, what should we do now, if that's the case, it's bad." After listening to my grandfather's words, I was soaking wet.

"In this way, tomorrow you and grandpa go to our cattle market for a walk, grandpa will take you to meet an old friend, maybe he has a way." After Grandpa finished speaking, he sighed.

"Uh-huh." I nodded, and that's all there was to it.

The next day, my grandfather and I came to Niujia Town......

After passing through the bustling crowd, we came to a fortune teller's stall.

"Unpredictable Prophet, Take the Lead......" A large white flag was supported by a long pole, and the white flag prominently presented these eight big characters.

"Grandpa, can you believe this?" I looked at the old man and was skeptical.

"Don't talk nonsense about children, this is your grandfather's best friend in life and death." Grandpa bared his teeth and glared at me.

In the early years, I heard people tell me that my grandfather was a disciple of Taoism. So, naturally, I wouldn't be curious that my grandfather made this kind of friend.

However, my grandfather was a disciple of a Taoist family, but my grandfather never mentioned it to outsiders, and I never heard my grandfather tell me.

"Old friend, I haven't seen you for many years, why do you have time to come today?" After the old man saw me and my grandfather, he quickly got up and took a photo with my grandfather.

"As the saying goes, if you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, and today the old man does have something to ask for." After Grandpa finished speaking, he bowed to the old man.

"Brother Dao, please speak, you and I are in the same case, and what do you want or not?"

After the old man finished speaking, he looked at me.

At this moment, the old man's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he saw something from me.

"Old friend, our Niu family has been passed down from generation to generation, and I only ask you to help me save this child's life, as long as this child is okay, it is worth it even if Lao Yu gives up this life."

After my grandfather finished speaking, his affectionate eyes stayed on me.

"Alas...... Brother Dao, one life is worth one life, what you owe always has to be repaid, you have to be mentally prepared. The old man looked at his grandfather and sighed.

"As a Taoist disciple, I naturally know this." Grandpa nodded.

"In that case, the poor road will go with you." Lao Dao picked up the dust, shook his head, and walked out with a big swagger.

"My grandson is saved, my grandson is saved." Grandpa was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly followed.

I froze there for a long time, not understanding what they meant, until that day......
