Yan and Yan turned around and saw a man wearing a government uniform.
"Are you looking for me?" Yan Yan pointed at himself.
The yamen officer nodded, "I just heard the girl talking to Mr. Li Zheng about Xiqiao Village."
Yan Yan asked thoughtfully, "Do you know about Xiqiao Village? Why did you tell me?"
"Girl, are you going to Xiqiao Village?"
Both of them had a series of questions, but neither one answered the other's.
"How can I go to Xiqiao Village now that there is a plague? If I go there, I won't be able to come back."
"That's what the girl said." The yamen servant said dejectedly, "In that case, I won't bother the girl."
With that said, the officer turned around and wanted to leave.
"Stop!" Yan Yan shouted in a deep voice.
Yan Yu's voice was filled with ghost power, and the government servant couldn't move even if he wanted to.
"It's inexplicable that you ask so many questions but don't tell me the reason." Yan Yan looked him up and down, "Do you think you can leave if you want?"
"Tell me, what do you want me to do in Xiqiao Village?" Yan Yan raised his chin, "If I find a cure for the plague, I might go to Xiqiao Village."
"I want you to bring out a fool from Xiqiao Village."
"What's wrong with you, idiot?"
"He is my savior," the officer said.
At that time, it was not only two people who were pushed into the river by the villagers of Xiqiao Village, but also him.
The fool had difficulty moving and was too old, so in the end he was rescued.
"There is no way to repay the kindness of saving my life. If I don't repay the kindness, I worry that I will suffer retribution in the future." said the Yamen servant.
"We take him out and you want to provide for him in old age?"
The officer nodded.
In fact, that fool is already too old and will not live much longer. Even if he is just an ordinary government servant, he can still provide for the fool until he dies.
Return to Xiqiao Village again.
Yan Yan still couldn't believe that a fool who could eat carrion would jump into a river to save people.
"I'll go to the fool's house again."
The fool's house is still clean and tidy, and there are no traces of rotting corpses in the restaurant.
Yan Yan was lying on the flat door of the restaurant.
There were no traces of blood, water, or pus in the wood crevices, and I don’t know how the fool cleaned them up.
The tips of his ears twitched, and the fool came back from outside, and then another pile of corpses was moved into the kitchen.
Yan Yan drifted out of the restaurant, turned around and drifted to other places in the yard. When he passed by the main room, he paused.
She seemed to feel the ghostly spirit.
In Xiqiao Village, which is filled with zombie aura and ghost aura, that wisp of ghost aura is very weak, and if it weren't for Yan Yan's powerful ghost power, he would have ignored it.
Floating into the main room, Yan Yan looked for the ghostly aura.
The fool behind him also entered the house and looked at the row of raincoats in front of him.
Yan Yan thought that the ghost could not escape from her grasp anyway, so he stood next to the fool and watched him change his raincoat.
She wanted to see what this fool looked like under his coir raincoat!
The straw hat was taken off, revealing a very old man with gray hair.
His lips and head shook unconsciously, leaving only two or three teeth in his mouth exposed.
Yan Yan thought to himself, no wonder even the carrion had to be boiled, so that the teeth could drink some soup and water.
But she still couldn't figure out how such an old man who knew how to eat human flesh could be kind enough to save others?
Yan Yan was deep in thought when suddenly a large wave of corpse aura came out.
The fool had already taken off his coir raincoat. Yan Yan looked over in confusion, his eyes widening instantly.
On the old man's back, which was covered with age spots and was so thin that his bones were visible, he actually carried a corpse!
The corpse on his back was deformed, but it was still clearly the corpse of a child. Judging from the body bones, he was estimated to be only three or four years old.
The child's half-sized skull was embedded in the back of the old man's neck, bending the old man's neck bones, and the body was curled up on the old man's back. Perhaps the old man was worried that the child's body would fall, so he hunched his back.
Nowadays, the spine may only be able to bend like this.
No wonder this fool looks the same when viewed from the front and from the side.
It turned out that there was a corpse on his back.
Yan Yan walked closer to take a look.
The child died earlier than the people who contracted the plague in the field outside, but there were no bloody pustules on his body, so his body was still intact.
After taking off his raincoat, the old man did not put it on immediately. Instead, he walked to the basin nearby, sprinkled something unknown into it, and then began to clean his body, including the body on his back.
Yan Yan didn't know what was sprinkled in the basin, but the spicy smell was exactly the same as what was floating around the town.
After the old man put on his raincoat and left the main room, Yan Yan came to the Kang.
There was a faint ghostly aura floating on the kang.
Yan Yan reached out and tapped the ghost aura with his fingertips, and the weak ghost aura instantly condensed into a soul.
And the appearance of the soul is exactly the corpse carried by the old man.
A child with pigtails.
Yan Yan asked him his birth date, and the child spoke honestly.
——Changfu...died of illness due to cold.
What made Yanji pay attention was that Changfu died after Zhang Er died, and their death anniversaries were only one day apart.
"Chang Fu, what's your relationship with that fool? Why is he carrying your body?"
Changfu is dead and he is a ghost. Naturally, he understands Yan Jie's black and impermanent identity. When he saw Yan Jie and asked him, he told the truth.
"He is my grandfather, the guardian of the village."
Zhang Er died suddenly, and it rained heavily that day. As a village guard, the fool naturally went to help.
At that time, Changfu was caught in the cold and his body was hotter than burning iron.
The burial took a day. The fool was really a fool. He was a fool. He took care of Zhang Er's death, but forgot that he had left Changfu at home for the whole day.
Changfu didn't eat anything all day long, and the cold and fever made him dizzy and weak, and he couldn't even get out of bed to drink water.
By the time the fool returned home, Chang Fu had already died for a long time.
"Before grandpa left, I told him that I didn't want to be alone."
Grandpa Changfu was really a fool, so he was carried on his back by Changfu, and the grandfather and grandson were never separated from each other.
"Will you blame him? He went out when he was sick, causing you to be young..."
"Sir." Changfu shook his head, "I won't blame grandpa, I just, I just don't want to leave grandpa alone, with no one to talk to him, and I haven't respected him yet."
There was a line of blood and tears on Changfu's face, and he knelt down to Yan Yan, "Sir, can you not take me away? Grandpa is old and won't live long. I want to wait for him."
Yan Yan took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
disgust.
What she hates most is getting involved in the affairs of living people.
"I will leave in a few days, and I must take you with me then."
He didn't say that he could wait for his grandfather, but at least he relaxed and let Changfu stay by the fool's side for the past few days.
Changfu was raised by a fool alone, and he became sensible early on. He knew that this was because Yan Yu had already tolerated him.
He kowtowed to Yan Yu repeatedly.
I heard two things about fools in a row.
This was completely opposite to the fool she saw who would eat carrion.
Yan Yan still asked Chang Fu why a fool must eat carrion.
