Chapter 746 Life-saving grace
Fang Ming took Ling Wei to Basha Ancient Village again. Ling Chuchu asked Fang Ming and Ling Wei what happened to them in the Sky Burial Mountain along the way, but Ling Wei was secretive and refused to say anything clearly. He just took him there in a few words.
, especially the part about getting older was not mentioned at all.
Watching Ling Wei talk about him, a look of thought flashed across Fang Ming's face, but then he returned to his original state.
Basha Ancient Village is indeed closed. No one can be seen outside the entire village, and no one even picks the vegetables in the fields. The entire ancient village looks like a dead village from a distance.
There was no one to be seen on the road.
When Fang Ming took Ling Wei to Basha Ancient Village again, even Ling Wei noticed that the atmosphere in the village was different from before. If the original Basha Ancient Village gave him a feeling of twilight and depression, then now
The Basha Ancient Village gave him a lifeless feeling.
"Where are the people? Where have they gone?"
Ling Wei was a little confused. He looked around but didn't see anyone in the village. However, Fang Ming's eyes fell on the corner of a certain alley, where a figure appeared.
Mo Ke, a disciple of Duobao Ghost Master in Basha Ancient Village.
Mo Ke walked out of the corner and was surprised at first when he saw Fang Ming. However, when he saw the stone tablet on Ling Wei's back, his mouth opened slightly, as if he had seen something incredible. The next moment he suddenly
Shout out.
Yes, it was the kind of shouting that a person would make when he was extremely excited. It was in Miao language, and even Fang Ming and the others couldn't understand it.
After shouting a few times, Mo Ke quickly walked towards Ling Wei. Ling Chuchu stood beside her brother extremely warily because she was afraid that Mo Ke would be harmful to her brother.
However, what Ling Chuchu didn't expect was that when Mo Ke was still two meters away from his brother, he suddenly knelt down and murmured in Miao language. Although he couldn't understand it, he could tell from Mo Ke's expression.
It can be judged that this is an act of surrender.
"Why are you kneeling down for me?"
Ling Wei was also dumbfounded. Why did such a good old man kneel down to him? If he remembered correctly, when Lulu took him back to the village for the first time, this man didn't give him a good look.
Why did it suddenly change so much this time?
Fang Ming looked at Mo Ke who was kneeling, and then looked at the dumbfounded Ling Wei, but he knew something in his heart, and he probably knew why Mo Ke knelt down.
At the same time, many villagers suddenly poured out of the deserted alleyway. These villagers all followed Mo Ke and knelt down towards Ling Wei, murmuring in Miao language.
"Fang Ming, what's going on?"
When one person knelt down towards him, Ling Wei was already a little confused about what to do. Now that so many people were kneeling down, he was even more caught off guard and didn't know what to do.
"You don't want to be the leader of the village, right? If I guess correctly, the reason why these villagers kneel down to you is because they recognize you as the leader of the village."
At first, Fang Ming was skeptical when he heard from Ghost Master Duobao that Ling Wei should be the leader of the village. He felt that this was a conspiracy by Ghost Master Duobao against him, and making Ling Wei the leader of the village was just an excuse.
However, after seeing the changes in Basha Ancient Village and experiencing the trip to Sky Burial Mountain, Fang Ming believed in Duobao Ghost Master. In such a mysterious place as Sky Burial Mountain, Duobao Ghost Master would never let himself and Ling Wei go to deal with him.
Go in.
The attitude of these villagers now explains everything.
"They recognize me as the leader of the village?"
Ling Wei was also the boss with his mouth open. Although he had such an agreement with the old man, he never really thought about being the leader of the village. This Basha Ancient Village is a big place and so backward.
There is no point in being a village leader in a place like this.
"I don't want to be the owner of the village, I just want my Lulu."
Ling Wei shook his head crazily, and at this moment Mo Ke also stood up and said respectfully to Ling Wei: "Master of the village, the ghost master is already waiting for you, please come with me."
"Let's go take a look first and then talk."
Fang Ming patted Ling Wei on the shoulder. There were still many secrets in Basha Ancient Village, and it was time to unravel them.
Mo Ke led the way, Ling Wei was still carrying the stone tablet. Along the way, the villagers looked at Ling Wei with reverence. No matter how old Ling Wei was, no matter where Ling Wei came from, in Basha Ancient Village, as long as he was
If you can become the leader of the village, you will have supreme power. This is a rule passed down from generation to generation.
A few minutes later, Mo Ke took Fang Ming and others to the back mountain and arrived in front of the stone house.
"Master is waiting for you inside!"
Mo Ke looked at Ling Wei, and Ling Wei looked at Fang Ming. At this time, he had no one and could only rely on Fang Ming.
"Go in."
Fang Ming patted Ling Wei on the shoulder and was about to follow Ling Wei in, but Mo Ke stopped him.
"Master needs to talk to the village leader alone."
Mo Ke's expression was serious, but Ling Wei gave up and asked him to face the old man alone. He had to be betrayed by the old man, so he would never do it.
"If he doesn't go in, then I won't go in either. Just let the old man stay inside." Ling Wei expressed his attitude directly.
"Fortress leader, this..."
Mo Ke had a look of embarrassment on his face. If someone else had said this, he would have been angry. But now Ling Wei is the leader of the village. In the village, the status of the leader is higher than that of the ghost master...
"That's all, Mr. Fang, I just want to have a few words with the leader of the new village. Don't worry, I won't hurt him."
At this time, Duobao Ghost Master's voice came from the stone house. Compared with the first time, there was no arrogance in this voice, and Fang Ming could even hear the meaning of prayer.
Ling Wei looked at Fang Ming eagerly. Fang Ming looked at the stone house and nodded towards Ling Wei after a while.
"Fang Ming, please don't hurt me. If I shout after a while, you have to rush in immediately. If it's too late, I might be killed by the old man."
Hearing Ling Wei's words, Mo Ke looked a little helpless. If someone else had called his master "Old Man", he would have released the poison a long time ago. But the identity of the person in front of him was unusual, so he could only pretend that he didn't hear it.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Fang Ming gave Ling Wei a comforting look, and at the same time told Ling Chuchu not to worry. After Fang Ming's assurance, Ling Wei walked into the stone house carrying the stone tablet.
As Ling Wei walked into the stone house, the stone door was closed, and because of the special nature of this stone house, people outside could not sense what happened inside the house.
Therefore, what Fang Ming said to comfort Ling Wei earlier was completely false. However, he believed that Duobao Ghost Master could not have evil thoughts towards Ling Wei. The reason why he was not allowed to go in was probably because Duobao Ghost Master wanted to talk to Ling Wei.
The content involves the secrets of the village.
"How long did I disappear this time?" While waiting, Fang Ming also asked Ling Chuchu.
"Seventy-three days later, if you don't come out, I won't be able to explain to my aunt."
Ling Chuchu looked at Fang Ming with complaining eyes. In the past seventy-three days, her aunt had made countless calls to inquire about Fang Ming's whereabouts. However, she did not dare to tell her aunt the truth for fear that her aunt would rush away in a hurry.
He came here just to tell the news to his father.
"So long?"
Fang Ming was also a little surprised. This trip to the Sky Burial Mountain actually lasted as long as two and a half months. It seemed that there were only a few days left before the New Year.
"Who says it's not the case? By the way, there have been a lot of calls on your mobile phone during this period, including the number of your little girlfriend. I told her that you were in a place with no signal, but she didn't say anything and just asked you to come out.
Call her back later."
Ling Chuchu took out Fang Ming's mobile phone, which Fang Ming gave to her before entering the Celestial Burial Mountain. Fang Ming took the phone and saw that there were indeed many calls on it, some received and some missed.
The ones he had answered were all those whose names he had noted, and were answered by Ling Chu Chu on behalf of Ling Chu Chu, while the ones he had missed were unknown calls.
Dazhu, Uncle Hua, his mother, Ziyu...Chen Ming, Hua Mingming...Han Qiaoqiao all called.
"I saw that you noted your names, so I picked them up because I was afraid there would be something important. Fortunately, none of these people have anything to do."
Fang Ming nodded and put his cell phone in his arms. There was no signal in the entire Basha Ancient Village.
…
Half an hour later, the stone door opened, and Ling Wei walked out. When he went in, he was carrying the stone tablet on his back, but when he walked out, the stone tablet on Ling Wei's back had disappeared, and his expression changed at the same time.
When he went in, Ling Wei's expression was wary and unhappy, but when he came out, his expression turned into helpless and heavy.
"Fang Ming, the ghost master said he wanted to tell you something."
Ling Wei looked at Fang Ming, and from Ling Wei's words, Fang Ming discovered that Ling Wei's attitude towards Duobao Ghost Master had changed. From calling him an old man at the beginning to calling him Ghost Master now, Ling Wei treated Duobao Ghost Master.
The attitude is completely different.
"Um."
Fang Ming nodded and walked towards the stone house. He was a little curious as to what Ghost Master Duobao said to Ling Wei that caused Ling Wei's attitude to change so much.
Entering the stone house, the difference from last time is that the light inside this time is extremely dim, and the stone tablet Ling Wei brought in happened to be placed in the center, and behind the stone tablet, there was a person
An old man with a stooped back.
"Duobao Ghost Master?"
Looking at Ghost Master Duobao who had almost turned into a hunchback, Fang Ming had a look of surprise on his face. For seventy-three days, Ghost Master Duobao looked as if he had aged more than ten years, with age spots covering his entire body.
Make a face.
"Why, I can't believe it, ahem... I didn't scare Mr. Fang."
