Volume 1 Mountains and Rivers Chapter 22 A Daddy is full of sorrow

In the earthen embryo house, in the simple hall, the villagers have already set up the mourning hall, and everyone is tied with white linen.

"Okay, why is his uncle leaving?"

The eyes of the women present were all slightly red, Uncle Chen was still talking and laughing yesterday, why is it going to be bad today, which makes everyone unacceptable.

The men with gongs, leather drums, and bangzi also lowered their heads slightly and slowly struck them.

At this time, in the back room, Uncle Chen, who was dying, was lying on the bed, muttering to himself from time to time.

"Girl, girl."

"I'm leaving, why didn't my daughter come to see me."

The old woman who was over half a hundred years old on the side had long been crying silently, and she had been fighting for money, rice, oil, and salt all her life, but now she wanted to be separated forever.

"You don't have a daughter in charge of his house."

The regret of the old woman's life is that she failed to give birth to a son and a half daughter, and now listening to Uncle Chen's self-talk, her heart is like a knife.

"Yes, I dreamed of my daughter last night, and she came to see me."

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Chen Bo's sallow face, and it was difficult to hide the deep longing in his eyes, he really wanted to see Jiu'er.

"Village Chief, you're here."

Teng Yi came to the mourning hall, and the villagers who were sitting got up one after another.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Leaving a word, Teng Yi walked into the back room.

"Village Chief."

When the old woman saw Teng Yi, her tears couldn't be stopped, and she slowly retreated from her position and looked at Uncle Chen on the bed.

"He's in charge, the village chief has come to see you."

Teng Yi stepped forward silently and said softly to the old woman: "Sixth aunt, you have to take care of your body, this family still depends on you." ”

"Uncle Chen, I've come to see you."

Teng Yi sat on the edge of the bed, holding a stone in his hand.

"Village Chief, is it really you?"

Chen Bo suddenly turned his head, his cloudy eyes couldn't see Teng Yi clearly, and he stretched out his trembling hand with great difficulty.

Teng Yi hurriedly grabbed it and said, "It's me, I'm here to see you off." ”

"Village chief, will she come to see me?" Chen Bo looked at Teng Yi, and his eyes couldn't help showing a look of anticipation.

"Uncle Chen, wait a minute, Jiu'er will come."

"Okay, that dream is true, the girl will come." Listening to Teng Yi's words, Uncle Chen smiled with satisfaction.

Whew.

At this moment, a light wind suddenly blew in the inner room, and Teng Yi subconsciously got up and got out of the way.

In the line of sight, a girl in a white dress was standing quietly by the bed.

"Village chief, this." Aunt Liu's face showed a look of horror, although she couldn't see it, she could clearly feel that there was a person standing next to the bed, and then she thought of the girl that Uncle Chen had been thinking about.

Teng Yi didn't make a sound, guessed what the sixth aunt was thinking, and nodded at her gently.

At this time, Uncle Chen's eyes suddenly had a brilliance, he looked at Jiu'er, and tried all his strength to sit up.

"Girl, I finally waited for you to come."

Jiu'er hurriedly stepped forward to help Uncle Chen, slowly leaned him against the head of the bed, and opened his lips and teeth lightly.

"Daddy."

"Hey!"

Uncle Chen responded with a smile, and the old tears were rampant.

"Girl, I can't go to see you anymore in the future, you have to take care of yourself." Uncle Chen explained, and then looked at Aunt Liu.

"I've worked hard for you all these years, and I'll be a cow and a horse for you in the next life."

"He's in charge." The sixth aunt couldn't help but cry loudly.

"Uncle Chen, let's go." Teng Yi stretched out his hand to help the sixth aunt, looked at Uncle Chen, and whispered.

"Girl, I'm leaving." With a smile on his face, Uncle Chen looked at Jiu'er with a smile on his face, and gradually stopped breathing.

"Daddy, let's go."

Jiu'er carefully put Uncle Chen on the bed and silently covered him with a quilt.

After the sixth aunt was in a slightly better mood, Teng Yi stepped forward and put the stone in Uncle Chen's mouth.

In an instant, Teng Yi vaguely saw a vague figure get up from Uncle Chen, and walked out of the house without looking back.

Click.

At this time, Uncle Chen's body gradually became petrified, and after the kung fu of the tea, he completely turned into a stone man.

Boom.

At the same time, Teng Qi, who was standing in front of the village ancestral hall, smiled.

"The Lord of the Mountains is back."

"Ah abandon this?"

Su Wen didn't walk out of the village shrine in a little panic, only to feel that the earth was shaking.

"Don't worry, the mountain lord is back, we can breathe a sigh of relief." Abandon explained with a relaxed face.

"Ah Yi, he did it." Su Wen smiled and looked at the village from afar.

"Yes, it's incredible." Abandon followed suit.

In the blink of an eye, the gloomy aura in the village ancestral hall dissipated by more than half, and the scorching sun was in the sky ahead.

Feeling this warmth, Su Wen couldn't help but say, "It's still so comfortable." ”

Hearing Su Wen's words, he smiled and didn't speak, and his eyes were thoughtful.

Uncle Chen's funeral was carried out in an orderly manner according to the rules of Tengcun's ancestors for generations, and it was not until the other party was put in the coffin that the villagers showed their doubts.

"How did Uncle Chen become a stone man?"

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't dare to say much, so they could only hold it in their hearts.

The villagers carrying the coffin followed Teng Yi out of the earthen embryo room, and then the other villagers who saw him off hurriedly followed.

The sixth aunt was supported by Gui Ying and a few of them to walk behind the coffin, and she couldn't cry anymore.

"This?"

After walking a few steps, all the villagers subconsciously stopped, and they were all shocked to find that the village shrine had returned to its original position.

"The Lord of the Mountains is back."

This was supposed to be a happy thing, but because of Uncle Chen's departure, the villagers did not have the slightest smile on their faces.

In front of the village ancestral hall, Teng Qi had already been prepared, and after waiting for a long time, when he saw Teng Yi, he took the initiative to greet him.

"It's time to go in, it's all ready." As he spoke, he took a deep look at the coffin where Uncle Chen was lying.

Teng Yi nodded, and then warned in a low voice: "Don't disturb Uncle Chen's rest." ”

"Cut, I'm not interested in stone people." Teng Qi snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

Hearing this, Teng Yi ignored it and walked silently towards the village ancestral hall.

Su Wen, who was standing at the door, silently watched Teng Yi walk past her, never making a sound, and then she saw Zhou Xiaoyun among the people who saw her off, and her face immediately showed disgust.

As if sensing Su Wen's unkind gaze, Zhou Xiaoyun subconsciously looked over.

The two women looked at each other for a few breaths, quite a bit of a rivalry, and then gave up.

For three days, the candles on the side of the village ancestral hall were lit until dawn, and the sixth aunt had not left in the past three days, guarding Uncle Chen's coffin in despair.

Su Wen couldn't bear to see this, so he took care of the sixth aunt, and the two became familiar with each other.

"Aunt Six, the days ahead are still long, you have to take care of your body."

"Su asked, if you were my daughter, how nice it would be."

"Giggles, Aunt Six, this joke can't be made."

"Also, old woman, how can I have a clever girl like you."

Sitting outside the village ancestral hall basking in the sun, he could always hear similar words in his ears, and he couldn't cry or laugh about this.

Because of the existence of the sixth aunt, Teng Yi had to follow Teng Qi to secretly go to the grove to cultivate the first and second realms in the past three days, which was really inconvenient.

Fortunately, this uncomfortable day has passed, early in the morning, Teng Yi rushed to the field, and saw a figure squatting next to Jiu'er, he was stunned.

"Uncle Chen?"
