"There's... there's... there's... there's shit!"
"I'm not blind, so don't move forward. Do you want to eat? I call you stupid, but you're not stupid enough."
"Don't talk, little dog. There's someone on the road."
"Hey, I listen to you, Senior Brother Li."
Not long after, Lu Zhuangyuan saw those people walking out of the forest.
When he saw the appearance of those people, Lu Zhuangyuan suddenly took a breath of cold air. No wonder his youngest son said there were ghosts just now. They looked so scary.
There was a thin man with patches of black and white on his face, a woman with white hair, a weird man with bow legs lying on someone's back, and there was even one person whose face was covered with hair.
Lu Zhuangyuan, who had traveled all over the world, could be considered well-informed, but he was still frightened by the scene before him.
"Dad, I'm afraid." Lu Xiucai kept shrinking back, as if he wanted to shrink his body as much as possible behind his father.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" Lu Zhuangyuan cursed at his youngest son in his heart. If there hadn't been a handsome Taoist priest and several Taoist boys in this group of people who looked normal, he might have turned around and ran away.
Lu Zhuangyuan trembled and bowed to Li Huowang. "Dare you ask this Taoist master, um... are these the spirits you have surrendered?"
As soon as he said this, he immediately received a large number of hostile looks.
"What are you talking about, old man? You're asking for a beating, right? Who are you calling weird?"
Lu Zhuangyuan saw that the handsome Taoist priest waved his hand to stop the aggressive black-and-white-faced monster, and he was even more convinced of his thoughts.
"Old man, may I ask, where does this road lead?"
"Wuligang! Ahead is Wuligang, not far, not far. Hahaha."
As soon as he said this, Lu Zhuangyuan secretly burned the horse's butt with the dry tobacco in his hand. The horse neighed, pulled the box and ran along the forest path.
"Hey! My horse! My horse! Follow quickly." Lu Zhuangyuan led the others and chased after the horse pretending to be anxious.
They ran so fast that they left those things behind them in no time.
They ran for an hour, and when they saw that their youngest son was running and vomiting, Lu Zhuangyuan whistled to stop the horse.
After he stopped, he ignored his younger son and immediately went to see how the horse was doing. In this troupe, horses are more precious than people.
By this time, the sky was slowly getting dark, and it was almost evening.
"My dear mother, what on earth are those things? They scare me to death." Lu Juren, who was sweating profusely, gasped for air.
Lu Zhuangyuan kicked him, "Don't you see it's getting dark? Go to the woods to find some firewood!"
Beside the forest path, a warm fire was lit, and soft multi-grain steamed buns were put into everyone's mouths. The sweetness of the grain soothed their frightened hearts.
"Look at how frightened you are. It doesn't matter if you run into some evil things while you are away from home. The more you do it, the less likely you are to panic. Let me tell you." Lu Zhuangyuan said to the others.
"Dad, maybe those aren't monsters. I think they look quite human, and the little Taoist priest even calls you father-in-law."
Hearing what his daughter-in-law said, Lu Zhuangyuan shook the water hyacinth in his hand.
"No matter what he is, let's not get involved. You all have to remember it. If you want to live longer when you are out, there are some things you should not mess with as long as you can avoid them."
This can be said to be Lu Zhuangyuan's philosophy of life. In any case, it was because of this that he lived to such an old age.
And he also plans to pass this point on to his younger and older sons. After all, when he gets old, the troupe will also rely on them to take over.
Passing the water hyacinth in his hand to his nephew, Lu Zhuangyuan looked at his granddaughter who was lying in his daughter-in-law's arms.
Seeing her grinding a small piece of steamed bun with her newly grown baby teeth, Lu Zhuangyuan felt more and more happy.
He turned around and took out a salted duck egg from a round jar on the car. After carefully opening a hole, he brought the sizzling and oily egg yolk to his granddaughter's mouth. "Come on, girl, suck this, this
It smells good.”
Seeing his granddaughter sucking hard, Lu Zhuangyuan's eyes suddenly narrowed with laughter.
Although it was a pity that he was not a grandson, he still felt very special to this little granddaughter.
Feeling that this was a good opportunity, Luo Jinghua immediately said: "Dad, look, Cui'er is so old now, shouldn't it be time for her to wear clothes? It's not a problem to wear a costume every day."
When his daughter-in-law mentioned money, Lu Zhuangyuan's smile immediately disappeared and his facial features wrinkled together.
He was about to refuse, but when he saw the loose costume on his little granddaughter, his heart softened again.
He took a few puffs of dry cigarette, and with more wrinkles on his face, he walked to the car, took out a long copper lock and opened the box.
After groping inside for a while, he counted fifty copper coins and came out.
"Don't go to the town to buy cloth. It's expensive. When you get to Wuligang in two days, go and ask whose woman is weaving cloth. Go to their house and buy a few square feet. Remember to ask several houses and find the cheapest one.
Home for sale.”
"Also, remember to buy cotton instead of linen. Xiu'er's skin is so tender that buying linen will cause discomfort."
"I understand." Luo Juan took the copper coins with a bright smile. She thought it would be good to get money to buy linen, but she didn't expect that the iron rooster actually crowed this time.
The child is small, so it doesn't take much cloth to make clothes, so I might be able to save some this time.
After seeing that his granddaughter had eaten all the yolks, Lu Zhuangyuan shared the remaining egg whites with the adults.
Although each person didn't share much, he was very happy to taste the salty taste. It was not easy to eat meat.
It was already dark, and there was nothing to do after dinner. I listened to Lu Zhuangyuan telling a few old stories I didn't know where, and I was about to go to bed.
The person who stayed up until midnight today was Lu Juren. After walking for a day today, Lu Juren was already very tired, but he still kept his energy up and stared at the fire in front of him, not to let it go out.
"Son, you go to sleep, I'll keep an eye on you." Lu Zhuangyuan sat next to his son and started smoking a dry cigarette again.
Lu Juren slapped Ha Qie and said, "Dad, I'm not sleepy. You can go to sleep."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Go to bed quickly. My old man doesn't sleep much."
Just as the two were arguing in front of the bonfire, Lu Zhuangyuan suddenly covered his son's mouth with his hand and pointed to the woods in the darkness in the distance.
"Hehe~" A high-pitched and thin female laughter suddenly sounded from their right side.
Lu Zhuangyuan and his son looked subconsciously, but saw nothing but darkness.
"Hehehe~ You think I look more like a human than a god?" The dark forest began to shake, as if something was coming out of it.
Lu Zhuangyuan was suddenly frightened and broke into a cold sweat. He knew that something was asking for silence.
Don't answer this randomly. If you answer it wrong, your family may be ruined.
But now the question is, what is it in the forest that is asking for my seal?
At night, the forest swayed rhythmically, making strange rustling sounds.
