Hundred Ghosts

Chapter 79

They didn't want to care about it, and Lin Zi didn't have much to say, so he followed her and continued on.

All the way to a slightly dilapidated hut.

The old woman was washing the fishing nets at the door, and the old man was basking in the sun, but he didn't open his eyes when he saw someone coming.

The woman stepped forward and called into his ear, "Old man Lin, who do you think is coming?"

The old man rubbed his eyes and muttered non-stop, "You little girl is too bad...don't disturb my sleep with anyone..."

"Open your eyes and see."

"Don't look, don't look, the old man just wants to sleep..." Even though he said that, he opened his eyes.

He stared at Miss Lin, and unconsciously said, "Hexi..."

He scrambled and got off the reclining chair, and rushed straight to Miss Lin's side. The speed made Lin Zi dumbfounded.

The old man has good physical strength, he doesn't even have this ability.

When the old woman heard the movement, she turned her head and looked over. She was so shocked that she dropped the online dating in her hand. She didn't bother to pick it up, and limped over with a trembling voice, "He Xi? Is it you? You finally know you're back? Mother has been waiting for you for a long time, she has been living here without daring to move, but this wait has made Mother wait for more than ten years."

The old man agreed, took Miss Lin's hand and chattered, "No matter what, you are my daughter. If you don't let you come back, you really won't come back? Why weren't you so obedient before? You sweet child... that kid is really not What a good man, we are afraid that you will be bullied! But you are disobedient! You listen to that kid and you don’t listen to us, but fortunately, you are back now."

Miss Lin was confused, and said weakly, "Well, I..."

"You don't need to say anything, Dad knows everything."

"What do you know?"

He said dryly, "I know you have been wronged."

you know shit!

He Huai almost laughed when he heard that, and he said, "Look at her, how old is she? Are you sure she is your daughter or granddaughter?"

Miss Lin nodded and said, "'Hexi' is my mother's name."

"Are you her daughter?"

"Correct."

He grinned, "No wonder... I wonder if He Xi is living a good life, why is she much younger than before... What about her? Don't say she didn't come! I'm her old man, she can't not see!"

"My mother..." Miss Lin choked up, "I want to see my mother too...but she's not here anymore."

"She's not there? Where did she go?"

"My mother passed away long ago."

Not long after his daughter left that day, he regretted it, and waited for her to come back day after day for more than ten years.

The moonlight at night is so cool, it’s so cool to the bone, looking at the moon and thinking about people, does my daughter also look at the full moon and miss him?He didn't dare to travel far or move, for fear that his daughter wouldn't be able to find them when she came back one day.

In the past ten years, more than one person said that she might not come back, but he didn't want to, and he refused to believe it. He stubbornly thought that maybe she would come back to see her parents tomorrow!

After more than ten years, he has already shown his old age, and he is still worried that she won't recognize them when she comes back.

Now someone told him that she really wasn't coming back.

"ok, I get it."

In an instant, his back seemed to be bent a lot, and the old woman passed out directly. This kind of thing is too cruel for the old man. Lin Zi couldn't bear it, helped the old woman into the house to rest, and asked Miss Lin to tell her the ins and outs Grandpa listen.

He Huai patted him on the back, "Master, you have to cheer up, in the future, at least you will have a granddaughter to accompany you..."

He forced a smile, "Yes, you are right, the old man can't fall down, he will go fishing tomorrow, and the granddaughter is still waiting for the old man to raise him!"

Lin Zi came out and could only shake his head with a sigh.

Life is inherently bitter, and we always have to experience life and death parting, sending off relatives, lovers, and friends, and then walking into the abyss of death. The little interesting things in life are nothing more than making fun of bitterness, like sparks of fire, With a trace of warmth, but fleeting.

The easiest thing is to die, but the days are still very long, and we must continue to live for the warmth.

Miss Lin has also settled down, so there is nothing to worry about. He Huai stretched her waist, waved to the old man, and pulled Lin Zi out of here, "In this case, we should go too. Hey, Lin Zi, what do you want?" Don't you eat fish? I saw roast duck and fish near our inn, it must be delicious..."

"You have eaten?"

"I see that there are a lot of people in his shop. If it's not delicious, how can there be so many people?"

"Then go and taste it..."

"Both, wait!" The old man called to stop the two of them, "It's getting late, and the gates of the city will probably be closed when you go back, so you'd better rest here for a night before leaving."

What he said was not unreasonable. Lin Zi looked at the drowsy sky and squatted at the gate of the city to wait for dawn when he went back, but...the two of them couldn't stay here either.

There is a reason for the Luotou clan to come to this remote place and not associate with outsiders. Is it really okay to keep them here?

For example, if you can't sleep in the middle of the night and open your eyes to look out the window, heads are flying around outside... Most people are already scared to death.

"Since the benefactor can send my granddaughter here, he must have heard that our family, if you don't dislike it, why not rest here for a night first, and let me be a landlord."

"That's not good?"

"The benefactor doesn't have to leave the house at night. The old man has fresh fish at home. If you don't mind, you can give the benefactor a taste."

Lin Zi and He Huai looked at each other, so why refuse?

"That would be troublesome."

The people at the seaside may not cook fish as delicately as those in restaurants. There are only some fish and green onions sprinkled in the fish soup, but the taste is indescribably delicious.

A total of five fish that weighed about half a catty were stewed, one for each person. He Huai was still not full, but he was embarrassed to eat any more.Lin Zi drank two bowls of soup and ate half a fish, and gave him the rest of the fish in his own bowl under the excuse that he couldn't eat it. The old man asked them if they were full, and they both patted their stomachs and said they were full.

Miss Lin lived in her mother's former boudoir, and the old man said that they should live in the room of himself and his wife - they didn't have extra luggage at home, and they couldn't even sleep on the floor.

He Huai had no choice but to say that the two of them had slept during the day and were not sleepy now, and wanted to go for a walk, so they slept first.

The old man had no choice but to come back soon...

Looking at the silver stars twinkling in the sky, it can be seen that tomorrow will still be a good weather. The two of them walked barefoot by the seaside. Lin Zi picked up a lot of beautiful big shells. He Huai said that if he likes, he can wash these shells and take them back. .

There are octopuses in the sea, the size of a palm, it looks a little disgusting, but He Huai said that it is delicious when grilled...

These were all things he had never seen before, and Lin Zi gradually understood why He Huai always wanted to take him on a trip—he was a mortal with a lifespan of only a hundred years, but He Huai himself was a sacred tree, he could live for thousands of years In the past year, I have only been tossed and turned in his life for a moment.

But he has thoughts on himself, but he can't be with him from beginning to end.

So I walked with him more during my lifetime, and when he walked alone for a long time in the future, I could see his figure wherever I went, which was also a comfort to myself.

Look, I've been here with him before, and he loves the shells...

At that time... Maybe it's really not just loneliness and longing.

They didn't go back until midnight. On the way, Lin Zi suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing over his head. When he looked up, he was startled.

Flying in the night sky is a monster bird with ten necks, nine heads, and eighteen pairs of wings. The wings squeeze each other easily. It flies crookedly, but doesn't stop, heading towards the Luotou clan. fly away.

He Huai narrowed his eyes and looked carefully for a while, "It's a ghost car!"

"I know, go back and have a look!"

The bird's name is Nine-headed Bird, also known as "Ghost Car", and the bird is also called "Guhuo Bird". It has ten necks and nine heads—the tenth head was shot by Zhou Gongdan's hunter. Each head has a pair of wings.

Even if it looks weird, the most terrifying thing is that this kind of bird preys on children!

They rushed back, and it seemed that something had happened in the village. There were screams, torches were lit, and the screams continued, and they could hear them so far away.

He Huai pulled him to speed up, and Lin Zi was so tired that he was almost out of breath, but he managed to catch up, everyone was just terrified by the sudden arrival of such a strange bird, and no child had been caught by it.

"Everyone, don't panic!" Lin Zi shouted, "This bird is a nine-headed bird, and it likes to prey on children!"

As soon as these words came out, the scene became even more chaotic. The women hugged their children trembling, screaming, and the crying of the children was sharp and ear-piercing.

He Huai Fu forehead, big brother, don't tell the truth, not everyone is as bold as you.

Lin Zi continued to yell, "Steady everyone, stop crying, the child, if you attract its attention, it will take you away!"

The child who hadn't cried yet was frightened by his words and burst into tears...

He Huai had no choice but to come by himself, "Don't cry, it's okay, everyone put out the lights, let your dog out, and you can drive him away!"

There are many dogs in the inland, who can guard the gate and hunt, but there are fewer dogs in the seaside. There are only two or three dogs in the entire Luotou clan.

But those dogs were struggling enough, and none of them were cowardly, barking at the nine-headed birds in the sky.

The bird was indeed afraid of the dog, so it flew up.

Seeing that it really worked, He Huai hurriedly said, "Quick, turn off the lights, put out the lights!"

The lights were also extinguished little by little, but the Nine-Headed Bird didn't intend to leave yet. He Huai scratched his hair in worry, and Lin Zi asked softly, "Is it because there are too few dogs to scare it away?"

"I think so too, but where can I find a dog now?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't find the dog. Do you really expect the dog to eat the bird?"

He Huai immediately understood, and whispered to the people around him, whispering a few words.

After a while, there were "barking" sounds one after another, and some of them were very similar.

It was a desperate fight, and I don't know if it will succeed, but the nine-headed bird really left after hovering a few times above its head.

The author has something to say: Well, the last chapter is indeed a little short, and there should be one or two chapters to be updated today
