Chapter 202: The Ancestral Hall is Lost
Uncle Quan now knows that Zhou Yuefeng must not be his apprentice, but he is also old when he thinks about it, this successor is a little anxious, seeing that Zhou Yuefeng is also reliable, he knows that the person he chooses will not be wrong. Besides, that kid himself likes it from the bottom of his heart, and Zhou Yuefeng said that he can help him make peace, and Uncle Quan is a little unhappy.
Zhou Yuefeng got out of Uncle Quan's tent and did not go back to his residence directly, but went directly to Liu Xi, opened the curtain, and saw him sitting there, Bihe bandaging his wounds.
Yue Feng walked over and looked at it and said, "When did this wound get right?" Why didn't you hear you talk about it? ”
Liu Xi retracted his arm and said, "When I saved Uncle Quan, my arm was scraped on the stretcher that carried the corpse, it's okay, just let Bihe give me some medicine in a while, Young Master Feng, are you okay with coming to me so late?" Bihe saw that the two of them were about to talk, so she opened the curtain and walked out.
As soon as Bihe walked out, Zhou Yuefeng asked straight to the point: "Liu Xi, are you willing to learn from Uncle Quan, Uncle Quan admires you very much, and he is old, and his ** has no one to inherit, I think you are more suitable." But there is a sentence to say in front, that is, the Quan family needs the disciples to change their surnames to accept disciples, and I don't know if you can do this. ”
Liu Xi thought for a while and said: "Young Master Feng, I have been an orphan since I was a child, this surname is not so important to me, but this matter is very important, after all, my father-in-law raised me for a while, I have to go back and talk to him." ”
Zhou Yuefeng looked at Liu Xi and felt that this kid was indeed affectionate and righteous, and said: "Old Zhou is okay over there, if you want me to go back and tell him, it's okay, but if you don't worry, go back with me and tell him in person." ”
Liu Xi said: "There is nothing to worry about, it's just that I also miss my father-in-law, and ......" Speaking of this, Liu Xi's face turned red, and Zhou Yuefeng knew that he might have thought of taking Bihe back to show Lao Zhou, so he said: "Oh, I know, that's good, let's leave tomorrow, go back and give Lao Zhou an explanation, and then you come back to apprentice." ”
After speaking, Zhou Yuefeng walked out of Liu Xi's tent, but there was a doubt in his mind all the time, that is, there were very few people in their Quan family who had descendants, so none of their descendants were pure bloodlines of the Quan family, that is to say, although they were all surnamed Quan, they had nothing to do with the original Quan family except for the ** Quan family.
Zhou Yuefeng was a little worried that Uncle Quan's temper would not allow Liu Xi to marry, so he walked around the courtyard a few times, but he was still not sure, so he returned to Uncle Quan's residence. Uncle Quan was already about to fall asleep, and when he heard that Zhou Yuefeng was back, he immediately closed his clothes again and asked, "What's the matter?" Will that kid follow me? ”
Zhou Yuefeng replied: "Uncle Quan, the surname is not a problem, the key is that you can also see it, his affection for Bihe, you have no descendants as the Yellow River water ghosts, so if he can make concessions, can you have the courage to let him marry a wife?" ”
Uncle Quan didn't speak, he seemed to be thinking, Zhou Yuefeng didn't answer, he waited patiently, and after waiting for a while, Uncle Quan took a hard puff of the big cigarette pouch, spit out a smoke ring and said, "Okay, that's it!" This era has also changed, and these old customs should be broken, but this craft is said to be nothing to be lost. ”
Zhou Yuefeng was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Uncle Quan, I'll let that kid tell you in person." After speaking, he called Liu Xi over, and then returned to his residence, he slept peacefully this night, and the next morning Zhou Yuefeng just got up, and saw Liu Xi helping Uncle Quan work, like a master and apprentice.
It seems that they talked very speculatively last night, so Zhou Yuefeng pulled Liu Xi aside and asked, "What's the matter?" Is it done? ”
Liu Xi said: "Young Master Feng, thank you for always taking care of me, and thinking about me everywhere, I agreed to his conditions, and he also allowed me to be with Bihe, but I can't follow Young Master Feng in the future." Speaking of this, Liu Xi was a little disappointed and lowered his head.
Zhou Yuefeng patted him on the shoulder and said: "Good brother, this errand of the Yellow River water ghost is not a long-term solution, now the government has ignored them, Uncle Quan also knows, now give them that little silver dollar because of looking at a little face, Uncle Quan should let you find another way out at that time, the door of the Zhou family will always be open for you, Lao Zhou and I are also waiting for you." ”
Liu Xi seemed to be relieved a little when he heard this, and said, "Young Master Feng, when are we leaving?" I told Uncle Quan that I would go back to see my father-in-law first, and then come back to learn from my teacher. ”
Zhou Yuefeng greeted everyone: "Brothers, let's go!" "Everyone had finished eating, packed up and picked up their equipment, and Uncle Quan gave them a small boat, so that they could walk much faster by water.
Uncle Quan was a little reluctant to them, and sent them all the way to the river, and everyone got on the boat to say goodbye to Uncle Quan, who stood by the river all the time, and finally watched everyone's backs disappear at the end of the vast water before going back.
As soon as he got on the boat, Zhou Yuefeng felt that something was wrong with Bihe, but he didn't know why, he couldn't ask about a girl's heart, so he asked Liu Xi to ask. Liu Xi went for a while, Zhou Yuefeng sat alone on the bow of the boat and waited for news, most of the boat had sailed out, and it was almost to the place where they met He Luoyu before, and Liu Xi came back.
When Liu Xi came back, he directly said Bihe's thoughts: "Young Master Feng, Bihe wants us to go back to the village." Zhou Yuefeng thought that there were no more relatives in the village, and what else did she have to go back to, Liu Xi continued: "She said that although we already know about the underground of the ancestral hall, it is true that this ancestral hall is often haunted, and she wants us to help guide the spirits, otherwise the villagers will still live in fear." ”
Zhou Yuefeng thought about it, it was true, they were just in a hurry to find the water monster and the tomb before, the shadow ghost in the ancestral hall and the cloud of fog they haven't cracked yet, although these things are useless to them, but save people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, and said: "Okay, let's go over and have a look!" ”
Immediately greeted the brothers: "Brothers, let's go to Qianming Village in a while, dock the boat first, let's go up and then leave!" ”
When Cui Fatzi heard that he was reluctant to go up, he knew that there was no treasure there at all, so he snorted: "Brother Feng, why are you doing that thankless thing, there is nothing, and you are still delaying your work." ”
In fact, the horse monkey didn't want to go, but for the sake of face, he said: "Lao Cui, don't complain, those villagers didn't help us less, Brother Feng means to go to the ancestral hall, didn't you hear it?" Let's help them, and we can be regarded as accumulating yin virtue for ourselves. ”
They drove on the river for more than half a day, and then they arrived at Chenming Village, and a feeling of being a thing or a person suddenly came to their minds, and the place where they went ashore was less than ten meters away from the destroyed altar before, and the ruins of the broken wall were still faintly visible. But strangely, the fog here is gone!
Pulled the boat to a shallow place and docked, tied the boat to a wooden stake on the shore, at first Zhou Yuefeng thought that the fog by the river was small, but they didn't have a trace of fog all the way to the village. Zhou Yuefeng stopped a local villager and asked, "Little brother, when did the dense fog in your village disappear?" ”
The little brother recognized Zhou Yuefeng and them at a glance, and replied, "Isn't this the descendant of the Zhou family?" Strange to say, about a few days after you left, the fog was significantly less, about half, and I can't remember the specific day, but it completely disappeared three days ago, and the fog suddenly disappeared. ”
Hearing his words, Zhou Yuefeng seemed to have a point in his heart, and after a few words of greeting, he continued to walk back, and Cui Fatzi asked, "Brother Feng, do you know what this fog is all about?" Zhou Yuefeng nodded and said: "Judging from the time when this fog fades away and finally disappears, it should correspond to the time when He Luoyu was killed by us, and this fog is most likely caused by He Luoyu." ”
The horse monkey listened to it and said, "Don't talk about Brother Feng, it's true, didn't we kill the biggest He Luo fish exactly three days ago?" "But these are also their speculations, and now there is no evidence against them, and they don't dare to make a conclusion, it's good that the fog is gone, otherwise this thing will cover the whole village, and it won't look like a place for a person to stay.
The person arrived in the village quickly, and Bihe couldn't help but be sad when she returned home, but fortunately, Liu Xi was with her, so she didn't want her life.
Bihe made dinner for everyone, and after dinner, night fell. Zhou Yuefeng changed his outfit and stabbed the horse monkey: "Monkey, wake up, follow me!" The horse monkey rubbed his eyes, got up very reluctantly, and then called Cui Fat Man and Yue Lin, and when he went out, Cui Fat Man yawned and asked, "Brother Feng, do you want to call a few more brothers?" ”
Zhou Yuefeng said: "No need, there is nothing in the ancestral hall, just a few shadow ghosts, it is enough for you to help me fight, if it wasn't for the hurry to find the water monster and the tomb, I would have cleaned them up a long time ago." After saying that, a few people wore night clothes and shuttled through the darkness, the village was not big, and soon arrived at the ancestral hall.
Although they have been in it countless times, and they know the situation in and under the ancestral hall, this house made of tomb bricks still looks depressing at night, making people a little suffocated, and they don't know what those brainless Red Guards thought at that time, and they couldn't stop their feelings.
Zhou Yuefeng took out the compass and cast some magic, the compass quickly turned up, and finally stopped slowly, Zhou Yuefeng said: "Brothers, there are only two ghosts here, but they are a little older, so they are more difficult to deal with than ordinary ones." After saying that, he began to set up a formation, gave each of them a charm, and let the three of them stand in front of the ancestral hall in a triangle.
said: "Something will come out in a while, the three of you must control him, and you can't let him escape!" The three of them nodded with the charm, and Zhou Yuefeng opened the door and entered the ancestral hall. As soon as I entered the ancestral hall, a musty smell rushed to my face. Zhou Yuefeng looked around, and immediately made a gossip that covered the entire room.
The three people outside saw that this gossip was used to purify the soul, and they had already seen Zhou Yuefeng use it many times, as soon as this thing came out, suddenly a black gas began to churn back and forth in the purple halo of gossip, and the three of them held the charm in their hands tightly, not knowing what would happen next.
