Chapter 37 A glimmer of hope
Chapter 37 A ray of hope
The boy nodded vigorously.
"Yes."
"The whole village."
Afraid that Bai Lingyan would not believe him, he hurried to explain.
"Their behavior is very strange, as if they have collectively lost their souls."
"I don't know why, but they wanted to catch me later. I finally ran away."
He was scared to death!
It felt like there were zombies in the village.
Don't mention how scary it was.
And it wasn't just one person, but the whole village.
He seriously suspected that something unclean had entered their village.
So the first thing he did when he ran out was to quickly ask someone to help.
Bai Lingyan's eyes moved slightly.
He didn't go to Nanshan Park.
Because he knew that a great merit would come to him today.
But he didn't expect that this time it would be the whole village.
This is rare.
The boy asked nervously.
"I saw your contact information at a stall in Nanshan Park."
"I asked several people, and they said... that you are here."
In fact,
before coming here, he also asked other people.
After hearing what he said, everyone ignored him.
Then a man came over.
The man pointed to the empty stall.
"If you can find that person, your problem will be solved."
And a master next to him kindly told him a fortune.
"Very bad."
"This fortune means we can't return, so we have to circle it if we go."
"But the blank space in the corner can also give us a glimpse of hope."
"I remember that young master's surname is Bai, why don't you go find him and see what he says."
Hearing this,
he went to the stall when he arrived.
He saw a contact number on the stone mountain next to him.
"So I came here."
Bai Lingyan nodded.
He didn't leave his contact number, and he didn't know to leave it.
It was probably Su Yixuan who helped him get it.
Bai Lingyan: What a good deskmate!
"My... friend left it."
Not only a deskmate, but also a friend.
The boy said again,
"I can sell my house to you."
"Although it may not be worth much."
"I"
Bai Lingyan:...
"That's not necessary."
"I'll go with you."
He was going to go anyway.
Presumably, the loss of luck before
has made those people feel bad, right?
This time,
he must give them a super double gift.
The boy looked at Bai Lingyan expectantly,
fearing that he would regret it.
"When are we leaving?"
Bai Lingyan looked down at the time.
"Now."
The sooner we go, the sooner we will return.
This time it may take some time.
After the two of them went out,
the boy looked at him again and again.
Bai Lingyan:?
"Do you have anything else?"
The boy shook his head and nodded, and after struggling for a long time, he finally spoke.
If he didn't speak, he might feel guilty, because he was a student of about the same age as him.
The boy was a little ashamed that he didn't tell the truth before.
"I'm sorry, I should have told you clearly."
"It's just that the masters I invited before have become the same as the people in my village now."
"Are you sure...are you sure you really want to go with me?"
"If not, I'll look for it."
Bai Lingyan: !!!
How can that be!
The merit is his,
no one can snatch it from him!
"Don't worry."
"I won't."
The boy's eyes were filled with joy.
"That's good."
"Another thing is that my home is far away and quite remote."
"You may have to bear with it. It's a long car ride."
Bai Lingyan: ...
"It's okay."
The boy showed a long-lost smile.
"Then I'll stop a car."
As soon as the driver heard that it was going to their village, he drove away.
Boy:?
He continued to stop.
He stopped four or five cars, and
finally one was willing to go after paying more.
But fortunately, the man's car was okay, and it shouldn't be too tiring to sit.
The boy turned around and asked,
"Is this okay?"
He deliberately picked a good car to stop.
Bai Lingyan sat in the back and
the boy got on the co-pilot.
He said,
"My name is Chen Sheng." "I
'm a student from the Nanshan campus." "I'm
a freshman now."
Bai Lingyan said "um".
Chen Sheng said,
"I found that the people in the village were abnormal. It was during the May Day holiday."
The May Day holiday was five days.
He wanted to stay at home for one more day.
So he took a car back to his hometown on the afternoon of the first day.
After four or five hours of driving, it was already dark when he got home.
He got off the bus at the entrance of the village.
As soon as he got off the bus,
he met the old lady who always liked to chat with him walking on the road.
Mr. Chen called out from a distance.
"Second grandma!"
As a result,
the other party just looked up at him
and continued walking forward.
Chen Sheng thought she didn't hear him. In addition, the vision was not good at night, not to mention that she was an old man.
It was normal that she didn't see him.
He didn't have anything to do, just casually said hello.
Chen Sheng didn't care too much. He
just called the old lady again.
"It's dark, don't walk around, go home quickly!"
After shouting,
Chen Sheng started to walk home.
After walking a few steps, he met another person.
This time,
he met his uncle. He
was a little hard of hearing
. Chen Sheng shouted at him at the top of his voice.
He didn't hear it.
Chen Sheng: ...
Later,
Chen Sheng stopped shouting.
However,
as he walked, he suddenly bumped into someone.
He looked up and it turned out to be his third uncle.
"Third uncle?"
"Why are you walking without any noise?"
His third uncle didn't even look at him. He
continued to walk forward.
And there was indeed no sound of footsteps.
Chen Sheng looked at his back, and after looking for a long time, he couldn't see what shoes he was wearing.
There was no movement at all.
After that,
he met a few more people one after another.
But because it was too dark, he couldn't tell who it was.
So he didn't say anything.
Otherwise, a sudden sound might scare people.
Mr. Chen went straight home.
His parents work outside all year round, and only his grandparents are left at home.
This time his mother called him and asked him to go home to see his grandma and the others.
In fact, even if his mother didn't say it, he would have planned to come back.
His parents are busy, and they care too much, so there is no freedom to go back to their hometown.
It's already vacation, so of course he can stay wherever he feels comfortable.
When he got home, he found the door was still open. He
thought that
maybe the two old men and women forgot to turn it off.
The lights in the house were off.
He opened the door quietly. He
secretly went to his grandparents' room to take a look.
He saw that they were already asleep.
He didn't say anything either. He
planned to give them a surprise the next day.
This time, he didn't call them in advance when he got home.
Mr. Chen took a car for half a day.
When he got home, he was sleepy and tired and yawned.
He climbed onto the bed and looked at his phone for a while and fell asleep.
Unknown to him,
the grandparents in the other room suddenly opened their eyes.
They picked up the crutches at the bedside and walked out.
The two old men's footsteps were so light that they seemed to be floating out.
There was only the "clacking" sound of the crutches landing on the ground.
