"Third Uncle, Third Uncle, what do you mean by what you just said?"
"Third uncle, please tell me. I know you are hiding something from me. Even if you can't tell it, you can just reveal it to me a little bit."
After Lin Laosan said the inexplicable words, he left, but Xu Guodong was completely confused. There was no other way. What Lin Laosan said meant that he, Xu Guodong, might encounter that kind of terrifying thing again in the future.
Living people live in a world of living people, and most people have never thought that there is an invisible and intangible existence wandering around them in this extremely familiar environment.
The same was true for Xu Guodong. Because of the smoke and Lin Laosan, he saw the terrifying appearance of those things.
Horror, fear, fear, although it is not so scary that it will make you pee, but in fact it is not much different.
When I think about being surrounded by a lot of evil ghosts, all of them trying to tear him into pieces with their claws and claws, and turning him into a mess, that kind of scene is completely unimaginable.
It's definitely not fun to go from a living human being to a pile of rotten meat that no one can recognize.
And he also understands his depth. To put it bluntly, Xu Guodong is just an ordinary person. Let alone fighting against ghosts, if a ghost really comes to him, it will be difficult to escape.
It would be okay if he was just alone. At worst, he would leave Linjia Village and return to Fengcheng. After all, although he lived in poverty in Fengcheng, he had never encountered such a strange thing. In his knowledge,
Maple City is still a safe place.
But he couldn't do this. At this time, he was no longer a single man who had enough to eat and the whole family was not hungry. Now Xu Guodong had a wife and children, and had lived in Linjia Village for three years.
The sudden departure from Linjiacun made Lin Juan far away from her parents. If she wanted to fulfill her filial duty, she would have to travel a long distance. This was something Xu Guodong didn't want to see.
Moreover, the child is so young and the family does not have much savings. It is definitely not easy to return to Maple City to live.
The most important thing is that even if Lin Juan agrees, he can take Lin Juan back to Maple City, but the current situation is that heavy rain is coming, and this small mountain village that has been quiet for a long time does not know what will happen.
No one is sure how far we can go from Linjiacun.
Even if we leave, it will be after the weather clears up.
But judging from the thickness of the brown clouds, this heavy rain will definitely not stop anytime soon, and if it doesn't stop raining, they will have no way to leave.
Lin Laosan just took him away from the small courtyard full of ghosts. Although he escaped, he also knew in his heart that those evil ghosts had not disappeared, but were only temporarily restricted.
In that courtyard.
When will he run out?
Are there any other ghosts in this village?
Xu Guodong didn't know all of this. The only thing he knew was the clues he heard from Lin Laosan's words - he would encounter ghosts in the future.
The feeling of his body being frozen was definitely not that wonderful to recall. He knew that if he encountered that situation again, he would probably not be able to run away and would have to let those evil ghosts take his life.
This time, Lin Laosan is by my side, but what about next time? What about the next time?
He won't be lucky enough to escape every time. If he encounters such a terrifying thing, if he doesn't escape once, there will be only one consequence - death.
It might even involve his family and children. This was the first time that he was so panicked and wanted to know how to deal with the evil ghost.
Xu Guodong followed Lin Laosan along the way, constantly asking questions and wanting to know more about this matter, but Lin Laosan didn't seem to hear it, and just walked calmly until he arrived.
It finally stopped at the door of his house.
"Xiao Xu, this matter is not something you can get involved in. You can stay at home peacefully during this period. When the rain stops, I will find a way to send you and Juanzi away. Don't come back to this village again in the future.
in."
Lin Laosan's expression was still serious, and his tone was completely unacceptable. At this time, his eyes changed, and he looked at Xu Guodong with an inexplicable look.
"Third uncle, what happened?"
"Does all this have something to do with that old Taoist? Is he causing trouble?"
"You invited him here in the first place. Could it be that you didn't notice anything wrong with them before?"
Xu Guodong gritted his teeth. Lin Laosan said this for his own good. He knew that in this situation, he should not ask so many questions, but the previous words still echoed in his mind.
He will encounter ghosts and some strange things in the future.
The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring of spring, let alone the kindness of saving a life?
Although Xu Guodong is not that strong or has that many abilities, he also wants to run away and escape from this place, but he also wants to repay Lin Laosan's kindness.
Lin Laosan's words already had the flavor of asking for help, which made people feel sad and uncomfortable.
Xu Guodong is a contradictory person. His worldview has been changed, but his character as a scholar still retains his persistence even in the most difficult times.
Even if he is afraid, even if he is worried, even if he has various concerns due to family reasons, he still wants to do as much as possible for Lin Laosan and the Linjia Village.
For his misunderstanding, for some of his previous situations, for his feelings towards Lin Laosan
Those unfounded speculations and doubts, that's why I said such words.
Although he is just an ordinary person, although he has no abilities, he is still affectionate and righteous.
"Okay, let's go home."
Lin Laosan pondered for a moment, his throat rolling up and down, as if he was hesitating to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything. He reached out and patted Xu Guodong's shoulder, turned around and pushed open the courtyard door.
Stepping into the yard, he saw Xu Guodong standing outside looking at him intently. Lin Laosan was not polite to him and dragged the dumbfounded guy in.
There was a hint of stubbornness in Xu Guodong's character, but it appeared at this moment, but his arms couldn't twist his thighs. Lin Laosan carried Xu Guodong into the house like a chicken.
"We're back."
Upon entering, Lin Laosan shouted, and his wife and Lin Juan ran out immediately. Apparently they were also worried about Lin Laosan and Xu Guodong.
When they came to the door, they saw that the two men were soaked by the heavy rain and there was no dry place on them. The two women complained a few times and dragged their husbands into another room.
Lin Laosan's wife found Xu Guodong a pair of Lin Laosan's clothes and asked the two men to change into them. She took Lin Juan back to the main house.
After changing clothes, the two of them did not go to the main room. Lin Laosan sat there waiting for Xu Guodong to change clothes, as if he had something to say to him.
Xu Guodong's movements were not very quick, and it was still a bit difficult to take off the wet clothes from his body. Lin Laosan's clothes were too big for him. He finally put them on, but he looked a little embarrassed, like a child at home.
Clothes for adults.
Lin Laosan's clothes fit him perfectly, like a big robe.
"Uncle Third, if you have anything to say, just say it directly."
The door to the room was closed, and they were not worried about being overheard by the two women in another room.
"You have seen what happened today. Seeing a ghost is not a good thing. Moreover, we were touched by a ghost just now. Our whole bodies were cold. That means the ghost has touched your body. Please be careful in the future."
"It does happen, and it's not a trivial matter, but something that concerns the entire Linjia Village."
"I can't tell you the whole story, but you have to remember to stay away from the old Taoist and the young man next to him. I haven't determined yet whether they are enemies, and it will take some time to confirm, so
You'd better stay away from this vortex."
Lin Laosan didn't explain many things, and Xu Guodong understood it clearly, but the more he said it, the more confused he became.
"Don't you think the old Taoist represents another force in this village?"
