Chapter 633: Puzzle Solved
Hearing him call himself Luo Gongyuan, my whole head felt as if it had been blown open. Then I shouted at him, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you be Luo Gongyuan? After Luo Gongyuan opened the door for me, the person was already dead, how could you be him? β
Hearing me choke at him like this, the old man's somewhat unrecognizable face showed a chuckle, and he said to me: "Yes, child, my life is over after I opened the door for you. But although my life is over, my body is still there! And I believe that this ghost friend can see that I am a dead person, and if it weren't for the protective effect of the tortoiseshell spirit, I would not have been able to breathe, and I would not have been able to speak! β
"No, no, really? Are you really Luo Gongyuan? I looked at the old man, surrounded by a dark green glow, in disbelief.
Just when I couldn't believe this old man's words, Yu Yunchang, who was beside me, spoke.
"I don't care who you are, let me call you brother first! Brother, I already know that you are indeed a corpse, and I am also shocked as to why you can breathe and speak now. Maybe it's the effect of these dark green rays that surround you! Let's not talk about that, but let me ask you, how did you end up hiding under this little cabin? Also, how did you become such a miserable appearance? β
After hearing Yu Yunchang's question, the old man who claimed to be Luo Gongyuan sighed softly, and then said to us: "Before I tell you these things, can you give me a cigarette to smoke?" I haven't smoked it in a long time, you don't know, I used to have the best bite. β
"Luo Gongyuan is a Taoist priest! He doesn't smoke! Your words betrayed you all at once! I said loudly. In other words, I really haven't seen Luo Gongyuan smoke, and I have the impression that Taoist priests don't smoke
Seeing me question him like this, she smiled and said, "Who did you hear that I don't smoke?" I just don't smoke in front of people for the sake of my image, in private, I smoke. β
Hearing him say such things, I hesitated for a moment, and then under the gesture of Yu Yunchang's eyes, I took out the cigarette I was carrying in my pocket, and then threw half a box of cigarettes and a lighter in my pocket in front of him at the same time.
I was going to walk over and give the old man an order myself, but I was so tired that I didn't even have the strength to get up.
Seeing that I threw the cigarette and lighter over, Yu Yunchang hurriedly picked it up, and then lit a cigarette for him himself.
When the cigarette was lit in the old man's mouth, the old man took a hard puff, but probably because he smoked too hard, and immediately after, the old man coughed violently.
"Ahemβ"
Ahem, ahemβ"
"Alas! If you're in a hurry, don't be surprised, don't be surprised! β
After the old man had stopped coughing violently, when he had comfortably inhaled a cigarette, and then exhaled the smoke, the old man spoke
"Actually, my appearance is to prevent the resurgence of the Chiyou Demon God. On that day, when I opened the door to reverse the time to win a chance for you kid to start over, I died, but although I am dead, my body exists in the closed door village, you may not know this, but the remnant soul of Chiyou who occupies the parrot's body knows. Without you knowing, it put my body in a box, and then buried it in the ground of this wooden house, tortured my body in every way, and finally wanted me to sleep in the ground, and in time to use my body to make some articles, such as making my body become his army of corpse slaves or something, which is somewhat similar to the altar slaves in Magu Village. But he never thought that later"
"What happened next?" Yu Yunchang asked.
"Later! When it hid me underground, my body used a piece of tortoise shell hidden in my body, and then released its tortoiseshell spirit to activate the power of the stone turtle array, establishing an opportunity to protect my body, and blocking all evil demons and monsters, in order to protect my body from being used by parrots. Of course, I prepared this tortoise shell in my body in advance, because I calculated that I would have such a day. β
Hearing what the old man said, Yu Yunchang's eyes suddenly lit up: "What's the matter with the piece of tortoise shell I found in the wooden house?" The dark green glow on your body now must come from it, right? What does it have to do with the tortoise shell you hide? β
"No, the tortoise shell in the wooden house was deliberately left there by me, because I calculated that I had this catastrophe and would be buried at the bottom of the wooden house, and the tortoise shell left behind was used to promote our reunion today!" The old man took a deep breath of his cigarette and replied.
"Not from Li Changjuan? Is it really reserved by you? β
Seeing Yu Yunchang say this, the old man smiled and said: "Believe it, believe it, don't believe it, in fact, if you look for it carefully, you will find that there are still many places left in Fengmen Village where my tortoise shell remains, because I have always carried eight tortoise shells with me, and now I have used up two pieces, and there are six pieces in other parts of Fengmen Village!" β
"How do you prove that what you say is true? Didn't you say that the other tortoise shells were left in the village? Then if you tell us where they are, we will believe you, and at the same time prove that you are really Luo Gongyuan. Yu Yunchang said with a frown.
"I can't prove it, and I won't prove it, the tortoiseshell wants to find it yourself, I won't say, just let it all go with fate!" The old man replied.
"Then if what you said is true, and all this was deliberately arranged by you, then let me ask you, what do you want to arrange such a meeting?" I asked in a deep voice. At this point, I don't want to think about the truth of what he said, anyway, it's pointless to dream.
Seeing me ask, the old man who claimed to be Luo Gongyuan smiled and said, "When we meet again, I want to solve your confusion and add a warning to you." β
"Oh? Help me solve a puzzle and add me a warning? How so? Now I regained a lot of strength, so I stood beside him and asked.
"Let's help you solve a puzzle first, in fact, you were indeed born in the Yu family in Fengmen Village, and the ghost in front of you is indeed your grandfather, and what flows in your body is the blood of the Yu family. But I want to solemnly explain that after you were born, you didn't kill everyone in the Yu family. Indeed, as the parrot said, the Yu family was all killed by our Daomen Qingfeng Daoist, which is also a shame for our Daomen. However, this is not a killing due to the arrival of you, but a grudge between the Qingfeng Dao Leader and your family! β
"Huh? Do you have a grudge with our family? As the old patriarch of the Yu family, how could I not know? Yu Yunchang asked rhetorically.
"This is not clear, in fact, the grievances of the Qingfeng Dao Leader are linked to a person named Yu Shichang in your Yu family, and Yu Shichang is one of your cousins."
Then, the old man told me and Yu Yunchang about a series of grievances and grievances between Qingfeng Daochang and Yu Shichang
It turned out that according to this old man who claimed to be Luo Gongyuan, Yu Shichang and Qingfeng Daochang had known each other since childhood, and once Yu Shichang was playing by the river in Fengmen Village and met the little beggar Qingfeng Daochang. At that time, Qingfeng Daoist told Yu Shichang that he was an abandoned orphan, his mother died early, and his father lived a miserable life outside by cheating, eating, drinking, and later, his relatives were afraid of being affected by him, so they abandoned him.
After learning about the pitiful life experience of Qingfeng Dao Chang, Yu Shichang agreed with him that every Sunday in the future, they would meet by the small river outside Fengmen Village, and Yu Shichang would bring him a lot of delicious food. It was from that time that the two established a deep friendship.
After the two grew up, Yu Shichang relied on his family relationship to find a job in the village that was very decent and had a lot of money at that time. And Qingfeng Daochang, relying on his perennial ability to wander outside, inexplicably followed a Taoist of Longhu Mountain, and became a Taoist who hunted ghosts and exorcised evil spirits, and made himself like a fairy every day, making some small money by exorcising evil spirits from his house
