Chapter Ninety-Four: The Tomb Keepers
When the group arrived in the village, lunch time had already been missed, but because of Fang Niang, the Ying family and the Qiu family knew that Xia Yanru was back in the village, so they sent someone over to call for dinner.
In the end, Ying Fengshan decided that the two families would get together again in the evening, and then let Xia Yanru take her two friends to their house to eat, Fang Niang has been thinking about it at home.
The two families didn't force it, but listening to Ying Fengshan's words, the two families were going to get together at night, and they were a little curious, this is not a year, although Xia Yanru has a good relationship with the two of them, but it is not that they don't come back all year round, what is the situation of this gathering?
Ying Dad took the time to come over and ask, Ying Fengshan bluntly said that it was related to Fang Niang, and the rest waited for the two families to get together in the evening and then talk about it in detail, no way, his son didn't say it, and he didn't want to ask forcibly, so he had to wait for the night to come with a stomach full of doubts.
If they had only known about Fang Niang's situation verbally through Ying Fengshan before, when they really met, Yu Feng and Tu Hongxing felt that Fang Niang's condition was serious.
"You are Aru's friends, that is, Fang Niang's friends, I invite you to eat candy!" Fang Niang opened her bright eyes, and after the unremitting efforts of Xia Yanru and Ying Fengshan, she finally stopped calling Xia Yanru Bao'er.
"Thank you Fang Niang, you are so nice!" Yu Feng's mouth was sweet, and he didn't treat Fang Niang lightly because of his abnormality.
"Uh-huh, Fang Niang is good!" Fang Niang herself was also very happy, generously took out a large handful of candy and handed it to Yu Feng, As for Tu Hongxing, it seems that there are fewer than those given to Yu Feng, obviously people with sweet mouths are very popular with anyone.
Yu Feng naturally saw the difference in the number of the two handfuls of candies, and proudly raised his eyebrows at Tu Hongxing, and his expression was as low as he was.
Tu Hongxing shook his head speechlessly, put away the candy, and thanked Fang Niang very sincerely, because of his personality, he really couldn't be as sweet and coaxing as Yu Feng.
The three of them had a simple meal at Ying's house, knowing that there was a dinner in the evening, Yu Feng and Tu Hongxing didn't want to bother, after all, they were both outsiders, but in the end, they couldn't resist Ying Fengshan's warm invitation, even Fang Niang, who didn't know why, also said that they wanted to eat together.
There was still some time before the night, Xia Yanru locked herself in her room and continued to make medicine to treat Fang Niang, Fang Niang's situation could not be cured by medicine alone, but it could play an effective role in relieving it.
Obviously, the treatment process will be very long, and if it is put into the future, it may be more convenient to go through surgery, but it is not suitable for such high-risk surgery at the moment, and there is no brain specialist who is strong enough now.
"You, what did you say?" Halfway through the dinner, Ying Fengshan informed the two elders of the purpose of Xia Yanru's return, and Fang Niang's mother was the most excited.
"Fengshan, don't dare to joke about this, we don't suspect Xiao Xia, but Fang Niang's illness" Father Qiu can still hold on, but the slightly trembling left hand on his lap reveals his emotions at the moment.
"Naturally, I don't dare to joke about Fang Niang's affairs, I know that you must be a little disbelieving when you say this, but you also know Xiao Xia's ability, she really has a way to cure Fang Niang." Ying Fengshan knew that this news was too unbelievable, but he firmly believed that Xia Yanru could and Fang Niang would be fine.
The two families were silent, and they all looked at Xia Yanru, the more they looked at it, the more they felt that she was a handsome and delicate girl, maybe she had some deep background, after all, food and materials are not something that ordinary people can get if they want to, but is it really okay to cure diseases and save people, or Fang Niang's condition?
Everyone silently put a question mark in their hearts, but no matter how much they don't believe it, they won't say it stupidly, not to mention that maybe it can, while they are questioning, they don't have a trace of expectation in their hearts.
"I believe in Natsu!" In the end, it was Fang Niang's mother who said it sincerely, and the expectation in her eyes was very deep.
"Don't worry, I never do things that I am not sure about, but the treatment process is definitely not too fast, and this disease is more time-consuming to treat." Xia Yanru solemnly made a promise.
At the end of the dinner, both families were still a little unable to come back to their senses, but Qiu Mu, who firmly believed in Xia Yanru, did not stop smiling on her face since the end of dinner.
Everyone knows that the old lady is in a good mood, and no one will pour cold water at this time, whether they believe it or not, they all show a good attitude of Fang Niang.
As the night passed, news began to spread that Fang Niang was about to recover from her illness in the village, but it was not too exaggerated, but even these facts and not news were a thunderbolt for the villagers of Shishan Pass.
The relationship between the Ying and Qiu families in the village is good, and the people in the village are basically very happy for the two families, except for the one who has a ghost in his heart.
No one doubts the authenticity of this news, it is really Xia Yanru who has surprised the people in the village too much, and even thinks that maybe Fang Niang will be fine tomorrow will not be surprised.
"It must be stopped!" An old voice came from the stone house.
There are many similar stone houses, this place is like a natural village, it is located in a shallow valley of Yanwen Mountain, and the people who live here are really relying on the mountain to eat and live by God.
"Dad, I, I don't know what to do." The man who came to report the news was a little panicked, he was the murderer who attacked Fang Niang in the first place.
"Waste, do you want me to teach you this kind of thing?" The old man in the stone house rebuked angrily in an unkind tone.
The man was silent, it was indeed he carelessly found out that Fang Niang was abnormal, so he smashed Fang Niang with a stone in a hot head, because he was panicked, he didn't have time to confirm whether the person was dead or alive, but fortunately, although Fang Niang was not dead, but the person was also stupid, the man put his mind at ease.
Now that the Ying and Qiu families have confirmed that Fang Niang's condition is improving, isn't this equivalent to a time bomb that will expose him at any time, how can this not make the man worried.
Seeing that there was no sound outside the house, the old man in the house looked ugly, and his tone softened slightly, "Shi, you should know that this place must not be discovered by anyone, and you should know the duty of our ancestors to live here for generations!" ”
The stone outside the house knelt on the ground and continued to be silent, he felt a sadness in his heart, for himself and for this group of clansmen who would never see the light of day, their ancestors did not know how many years they had lived here, because of the clan rules, no one dared to leave, and he was just an illegitimate child born by the old man in the stone house at the bottom of the mountain, otherwise he would have to live in this shallow valley for the rest of his life.
"Go and kill that Fang Niang, only by solving her can you truly never suffer in the future, and you will always be responsible for the mistakes you made when you were weak." The old man was resolute, when he knew about it, he wanted the stone to get rid of the person once and for all, but unfortunately this son was not raised by his side since he was a child.
Shi listened to the head drooping even lower, he knew very well that the old man's words were the best way to deal with it, and he also knew that only he could do this matter, but after doing it, he would only face two endings, one was to be imprisoned, and the other was to return here and live a life of no day.
"Dad, do we have to live like this?" Shi didn't understand, he didn't understand after knowing his life experience since he was a child, he didn't understand, why a good group of living people had to guard the tomb of a dead person who didn't know how many years had been dead.
"Presumptuous, that's not something you should question. Okay, stone, go ahead, get things done and come back. The old man let out a loud shout, and soon his tone softened again, the fate of the grave keeper was set from the beginning, whether voluntary or involuntary, nothing could be changed.
