Chapter Twenty-Three: If it were you, I would come to you later
Grandpa assured the village chief, and then the village chief beckoned Grandpa to go up and rest.
After I watched my grandfather and them rest one after another, I went back to my room, and I was just about to rest when I suddenly heard someone knocking on my door.
I slowly got up and walked to the door, then leaned outside.
I heard the sound outside a little familiar, but I couldn't resist who it was, but now that grandpa and they are there, I have nothing to hide, so I opened the door directly, and to my surprise, since it was outside, it was ......
"Hello, I'm sorry to bother you so late, but I'd like to talk to you, okay? I've been looking for a chance to talk to you when I met you, but I haven't been able to find a chance. β
The little Taoist priest looked at me sincerely, his tone was full of pleading at all, like a joke, I looked at him like this, although I felt a little awkward in my heart, but I was really embarrassed to say anything, because from the time I realized that it was indeed his eyes looking at me a little strange, I can't say why, but it was strange.
"If you have something to say as soon as possible, I'm really a little sleepy at the moment, if you can, I think we still have something to say tomorrow, after all, it's too late, and it's not suitable here, you stand at my door, I'm a little girl."
I didn't want to refuse him so much, he and his master brought back the corpse of the village guard, which can be regarded as helping us. No matter how I can't help but give him face, it's just that it's not too appropriate.
It's just a big night, and it's really a little inappropriate.
He glanced at me, then said to me with an innocent face: "I know, I know it's not very convenient, but I'm afraid I won't have this opportunity again tomorrow." It's really inconvenient to have adults around, and I want to tell you something about myself alone, and I think you should be able to understand it. β
Well? I thought he would promise me if I said that. I didn't expect it to be my carelessness, he was ......
I looked at his sincere eyes, hesitated for a moment, and agreed.
I told him to wait, went back to my room, changed my clothes, and followed him down.
The two of us sat down in front of the village guard's morgue. I sat down and looked at him a little embarrassed and asked, "What do you have to tell me?" I can't figure it out. β
I didn't hide it at all, and I said it very bluntly that I couldn't figure it out. I don't know him, but because of our relationship in the village, we can see him and know each other, so how can it be an acquaintance?
So I can't figure out what he can say to me, and if I want me to say something about him, he should say it to his master.
He heard that I was a little confused, and he didn't react much, just looked at me a little strangely and then said seriously to me word by word: "I just want to ask you a question, that is, did your grandfather or the second master of your family's fox fairy Hu tell you about your life experience or your future marriage?" β
My grandfather told the fox fairy about my marriage? I glanced at him, looked down and shook my head.
"No, they never told me anything about marriage. And I'm young, what do they say these things for? β
He just nodded a little embarrassedly when he heard this, and then said slowly to me: "Then let me introduce myself to you, my surname is Zhou Yusheng, and I have been practicing with my master on the mountain since I was a child." I'm just like you, my background is not very good, and then it's not too normal in other aspects, but my master once divined the marriage for me, and it has something to do with you. β
Divination of marriage, has something to do with me? When I heard this, I only felt speechless in my heart for a while, what is related to me? Is this really weird?
"You're kidding, right? Marriage? What kind of marriage is to see at a young age, and it's too early to say this. Is that what you're talking to me about tonight? β
I looked at him strangely, and suddenly he turned his head to meet my gaze.
I looked at him with a clear look in his eyes with a hint of immaturity, and his white and tender skin could be blown apart, which made me sigh to myself as a girl. I couldn't help but look at his appearance, and I just felt a little embarrassed.
I don't know how to talk to him about this, but I'm too young to have to do this.
But the name is Zhou Yusheng, and this name is really good.
"I know it's not appropriate for me to tell you this, but I also wanted to share it with you out of curiosity, otherwise I wouldn't have told you this, you're only there at your age. If one day, if it's really us, then I'll come to you. β
He gave me a blank look, then slowly turned his gaze to the village keeper on the side.
I followed his gaze, and there was a strange look in his eyes. To this day, I still can't figure it out, how did he run away on his own? This is a bit unbelievable, and I was still guarding Wang Fuji at the time.
"Where did you find him? The two of us were guarding there well, but suddenly he left. And it's a shame that we don't even understand what the hell is going on. β
I said this with a lot of guilt in my heart, and that time I was standing in front of the morgue, and I didn't know how there was no one.
Zhou Yusheng glanced at the morgue, then slowly looked at me, and said with a serious face: "That's really not to blame you, my master said, even if this matter is placed in your grandfather's place, it may not be able to handle it well." Because this is related to the secrets of the village, this village is not at all what it looks like on the surface, I don't know what you think, but its layout is very unusual. β
The layout of the village? I listened to him and slowly sank my thoughts. I know the layout of this village, and it is indeed a bit strange. But the last time I was with Wang Fuji to look for a question, I was too panicked, and I didn't rush to ask, and the doubts in my heart at that time were just doubts.
"The layout of this village is a typical Hakka layout, and it stands to reason that there will only be two or three cases of this in a normal village. But this place can be seen everywhere, and you say that this kind of layout is more or less known to the elderly, isn't this a little strange? β
As he spoke, he found a stick on the ground and drew it for me, and I looked down at the crooked picture he had drawn and felt amused.
At this level of painting, he was really embarrassed to take it out and paint it for me, but it doesn't matter, it looks real or okay?
I looked at him like this, and then I stretched out my hand and gestured to the entrance of the village he drew and said, "What are you doing here with such a big circle?" And why is there a big gap at the entrance of the village? β
Zhou Yusheng heard my doubts, and explained to me with a calm smile: "This is the strangest thing in the village, do you know? Master and I chased him to the entrance of the village. As for what exactly he took him, I don't know, I just know it's outrageous. When I was there with my master, my master said that the thing suddenly disappeared, and we didn't dare to rush over and run away with someone. β
Well? Suddenly gone?
I looked at him puzzled, and then I looked down at the picture he had drawn. I always feel like I've seen this pattern somewhere, and I can't say how familiar it is, but I just think it's very similar, but for a while, I really can't remember where I've seen it.
I stared closely at the entrance of the village, and I always felt that something was not too right.
"If you think about it, is there something missing from this position at the entrance of the village? The entrance of a village is the faΓ§ade of the whole village, how can this place be so empty? It's just weird. β
When he heard me say this, he just lowered his head and thought about it for a while, and then suddenly he raised his head and said to me, "I don't remember it, because it was already night." I can't see anything clearly, and I've been following my master, I can only remember the general route, and nothing else. β
I thought it was a little strange when I heard him say he couldn't remember, but I didn't say anything more.
I looked down at the picture, and the more I looked at it, the more I felt that something was wrong.
Zhou Yusheng looked at me with a serious face, suddenly burst out laughing, and then said bluntly to me: "You look so cute seriously, it's just too cute." β
It's the first time I've grown up like this, and I'm almost ashamed to death when I hear this.
I looked at him with an embarrassed smile, and then slowly turned to look at the village keeper on the morgue.
Maybe it's because his life is too pitiful, maybe it's because this life is too bitter, but anyway, I think it's a bit hasty for him to go into the ground like this.
"There are some people who come to this world and don't enjoy any blessings, and they can't take anything with them when they leave. He must have been desperate that night, right? It's all my fault, if I had found out earlier, I'm afraid he wouldn't have said that. β
I suddenly sighed, and I immediately frightened Zhou Yusheng.
He looked at me motionless, just turned his head a little strangely, and then put down the branch and said to me, "Are you okay?" That night we all felt a great deal of something special outside the village. It's just that we didn't know what was going on at the time, but don't worry, I don't think there's anything wrong with you. β
I listened to him comfort me like this, and my heart felt a little warmer, but it didn't warm much.
It's just that some people who are not too happy turn their heads to look at the village guards, coming in a hurry, going in a hurry, I really don't know what people come to this life for, are they here to suffer?
