"Uncle, what do you mean?"

Of course I was unhappy when I heard the old man say this.

"Hehe, how many days can you live with these two top Yinsha Village?"

I glanced at him and said with a forced smile: "What, is there any explanation?"

The old man turned around and glanced at Sang Lan and Ji Yayun, turned his head and said, "One is the red robe Xisha, the other is even more powerful, the mother and son who were burned to death by fire! If you are entangled by them, are you still better?"

My heart skipped a beat. Ji Yayun was indeed wrapped in red clothes and red shoes, and Sang Lan...

Looking back on the situation that happened to her in the past two days, I couldn't help but shivered.

"Old man, you are a master. Do you have a way to help them get rid of the troubles of being plagued?"

The old man laughed dryly: "You still want to help them? You can't even protect yourself!"

The old man seemed a little anxious, took a sip of cigarettes and whispered: "Master Ding, I have never taken advantage of anyone in my life. Since I smoked your cigarette, I will always repay you. In this way, when you arrive in Xiaotaoyuan Village, you will first go to my shop to smash the clay basin I placed on the table, and then go to Taoyuan behind me to pick a peach. As long as you do both of these things, you can turn your destiny around and save your and those two women's lives."

"Uncle, isn't this your shop?" I looked back and there was indeed a clay basin on the table.

The old man didn't answer me, but his eyelids swept down, "Look at your hands!"

I subconsciously looked down and my whole body twitched violently, almost screaming in fear.

A scarlet centipede was crawling on the back of my left hand!

I hurriedly shook my hand hard, but the centipede seemed to be nailed to it and could not be shaken off no matter how hard it was.

Looking up, the old man disappeared.

Just as I was in a state of fear, suddenly, a hand was placed on my shoulder from behind!

"ah!"

I finally couldn't help but scream and wanted to run away, but I was shocked and hit the door frame...

"Xu Huo, are you okay?" A weak voice rang out.

I hurriedly raised my head, but found myself in the car and my head hit the steering wheel.

Thinking of the centipede I saw just now, I quickly raised my left hand, but there was no centipede, only the scar of the cliff.

Turning back, Ji Yayun and Sang Lan both hugged in the back seat, looking at me tremblingly.

Ji Yayun said carefully: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Nightmare...

Nightmare?

I covered my painful forehead and looked out and left and right.

The rain was much lighter, and the car parked under a big tree on the side of the road. Where are there any small village shops around?

"How could it be here?" I tried to recall what happened before.

Ji Yayun said: "I'm worried that it's heavy rain, so there's a danger if I drive again, so I said I'll find a place to stop. You... just parked your car on the side of the road and parked under the locust tree."

"Lotus tree?"

If you look closely, the tree on the roadside is just a locust tree.

The branches and leaves are lush and the trunks are thick and the person can't hold it.

After a while, I gradually understood my thoughts.

I didn't sleep well last night, and I fell asleep as soon as I stopped the car. Everything I had just dreams.

But what happened to the small shop in the dream and the old man who called himself Mr. Ding?

besides……

Huai Shu...Huaiyuan Village...

After some fright, I didn't even bother to think about it. Seeing that the rain stopped, I looked out the map and found the right path and headed straight to Xiaotaoyuan Village.

Finally, I arrived at Xiaotaoyuan Village and found the Taoyuan of Zhang Xi’s family. The fenced door was locked from outside, and I saw that the door of Taoyuan’s shack was also locked.

I called Zhang Xi, but it still couldn't get through.

"Guru..."

I looked down at my stomach, turned around, and looked down along Sang Lan's lowered head.

She had a "growth stomach washing" last night. She felt sick in the morning and didn't eat much, so she was hungry.

Looking at the watch, it was already past eleven o'clock.

Under the old locust tree, I actually slept for an hour.

Ji Yayun said: "Why don't we have a meal first and then try to call your friend."

"Have a meal……"

I'm not worried about not being able to contact Zhang Xi, the key is where to eat is a problem.

Zhang Xi’s orchard is in Xiaotaoyuan Village, but his family lives in the county. Restaurants are rare in rural villages.

"Go and get in the car."

There is no restaurant, but there is always a convenience store. Now I can only buy some instant noodles and some other meals first.

"If we can't contact your friend, will we be in vain?" Sang Lan asked.

"Tsk, it doesn't matter. At worst, you can just climb over the fence and go in. Besides, every family here plantes peach trees, and peaches are already next season. Which fellow villager can't ask for a few pieces of wood?"

While I was relieved to my mother and mother, I drove around and looked around, and before I knew it, I arrived at the end of the village.

"There is a small shop there!" Ji Yayun pointed at a distance and said.

When I took the opportunity, I shivered all over and almost stepped on the accelerator as the brake.

It was indeed a small shop, a cross-open window, with the wall saying "console" written in red paint.

Thinking of the dream I had under the old locust tree, I couldn't help feeling chilled.

This convenience store is exactly the same as the one I saw in my dream!

I parked the car, hesitated for a while before getting off with my lip.

"Is anyone? Buy something!"

Sang Lan shouted twice at the convenience store and turned around, "It seems that no one is there."

I walked straight to the main door, looked at the two closed mottled wooden doors, and my breathing became heavy involuntarily.

"The store is open, there should be someone inside." Ji Yayun said and knocked on the door.

She knocked twice, and before she could take back her hand, the door creaked open.

"ah!"

Seeing the situation in the room clearly, Ji Yayun and Sang Lan screamed at the same time.

In the room, an old man in a mourning dress was lying on the door panel set up in the middle.

There were incense and candles on the table, and in the middle was a magnified black and white photo.

This is actually a mourning hall for mortals!

"Let's go, go quickly!" Ji Yayun cried and pulled me.

However, at this moment, my whole body was stiff and I couldn't move at all.

The person in the photo is actually the old man who asked me for cigarettes in his dream before!

"What are you doing?" someone asked behind him.

In a trance, I heard the man say "Oh" and "Why did Mr. Ding fall? Shuanzi, hurry up and find the village chief!"

I slowly walked into the mourning hall and saw the face of the corpse parked clearly, and felt a dizzy turn.

By the time we woke up, dozens of people had gathered inside and outside the house.

An old man about sixty years old walked to the corpse with a cigarette pole and looked at it. Then he looked at the portrait decorations on the table and murmured: "Brother Ding, why did you leave just by saying that..."

Ji Yayun pulled me aside and said, "I just asked the villagers that this old man is an old family in the village. He opened a small shop alone and planted acre of peaches. He knew that he was about to die, so he sent it to him."

"Did you find out he left?" Lao Yangang walked over and asked.

Sang Lan hurriedly said: "We originally wanted to buy something, but when we shouted outside, no one answered, and he pushed open the door, and he was like this."

Lao Yangang said in a deep voice: "I am the village chief of Xiaotaoyuan Village, Lao Yang. I will thank you for Lao Ding. If you hadn't bumped into him, he would have to let the mouse chew it all night."

"You're welcome." Ji Yayun glanced at me and said to him carefully: "Captain Yang, it's nothing, let's leave first."

"Let's go."

Village Chief Yang waved his hand and turned to the outside and asked, "Have you asked about the matter?"

"Here you." With a calm response, a half-large old man in his fifties and thin body walked in.

Asking about things is a side job and a profession.
