Chapter 29
This document seemed to be a reassurance given by the mayor to Xiao Liu, and also hinted to him that the world in the future would not be peaceful, and arranging him there would definitely be of great use, so he didn't need to worry about anything else and could just focus on his work.
With the mayor's approval, Xiao Liu's transfer was handled very quickly. Within a few days, he arrived at the village in the countryside with his luggage.
Ying Huai didn't know about the personnel transfer in the neighboring village at first. After all, even if he had some ability, it would be impossible for him to know what was happening in the neighboring village in a short period of time.
The reason why he knew this was because Tang Rufeng's appointment documents were delivered by Xiao Liu. He mentioned it casually when he came, and when he was leaving, the village chief repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay but he refused.
It seems that his action this time was to tell the village chief that the mayor would not be too involved in the internal affairs of Daxi Village, but when necessary, the mayor still needed to know the movements of Daxi Village, and the channel for delivering the information was Xiao Liu.
After explaining this, Xiao Liu said goodbye to the village chief and his group, turned around and headed back to the upper reaches of the village.
He had just settled down in the village and there was still a lot to sort out and understand.
Although the village is not big, there are still many things he needs to learn.
The village chief who stayed behind looked at the letter of appointment in his hand, still a little confused.
The mayor appeared in front of him before and threatened him in front of him. He thought that this mayor looked young, but was a person who only cared about his own interests.
Even when the mayor later told him that Tang Rufeng would be appointed as a village cadre in Daxi Village, he was still hesitant, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
But there is no need to worry now. The letter of appointment has already been issued. Even if the town leaders find something unusual in Daxi Village in the future, it will not be easy to send people to Daxi Village.
Not to mention that he stopped them, even the mayor didn't get much benefit from it, and he knew that the people in Daxi Village were unusual, so he wouldn't let those people do whatever they wanted.
Thinking of this, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief.
"Godmother, we don't have to worry about pressure from above anymore!"
The village chief fiddled with the letter of appointment in his hand and walked around the trunk of Yinghuai's locust tree several times. He was so happy.
Ying Huai didn't react much. He was used to it. The villagers, whether children or adults, would sit under the tree and chat and enjoy the scenery when they had nothing to do, and would hang around him when they had something to do or were bored.
Even though the villagers know that their godmother can now communicate with them in their minds, they still can't change these habits and they still keep repeating them.
Ying Huai didn't react at all. The little old lady lying under the tree was being swayed by him. She found him annoying and poked a child next to her, asking him to come forward and call him village chief.
"Master, Grandpa is calling you."
In response to Zuzu's order, Shitou was very active. Before anyone else could move, he stood up and rushed towards his grandfather's current position, yelling.
"Ohhh, okay."
The village chief shuddered when his little grandson called him. He came to his senses and looked in the direction of his mother. He could only nod helplessly and agree.
"Okay."
Shitou was satisfied, turned around and went back to the place where he had played before.
"You're making me dizzy from spinning around all the time. Don't you have anything to do now? What did the guy who just delivered something give you? Don't you need to deal with it?"
Zuzu looked at his son coming over and asked a series of questions like a machine gun.
The village chief's nonsense made her dizzy and she wanted to sleep.
Now is not the time to go to bed. She is old. If she sleeps during the day, she won’t be able to sleep well at night.
She would still choose to stay awake in the pitch black darkness or to see the sunlight during the day and spend a leisurely day.
After hearing his mother's mediation, the village chief stopped, thought about the things he needed to deal with, and calmed down.
"Okay, I won't bother you here anymore. I'll go take care of things first. Be careful and call for help if you encounter any problems."
After saying that, the village chief walked towards the Tang family.
Listening to the village chief's words, Zuzu felt helpless. It was not a good thing for her at this age. Every time she met someone, they would tell her to be careful and stare at her like a child.
Ying Huai looked at the helpless look of the old lady and felt like laughing.
He fiddled with his flower string, picked out the ones with buds, put some spiritual energy into them, and gave a small string to the little old lady.
Even though Grandpa looks healthy now and doesn't have any major health problems, he is old after all and still has some underlying diseases.
There was no way before, but now the spiritual energy in Ying Huai's body is gradually accumulating, and as time goes by, the concentration of the spiritual energy in this world increases, and he can also speed up the pace of cultivation.
Ying Huai would not be stingy when he had extra spiritual energy in his hands.
"Did my godmother send me something delicious?"
Zuzu looked at the locust beans that fell into his arms and picked them up with a smile.
Ying Huai didn't say anything, just waved his hand. Because his attention was diverted and he was not on Zuzu, he didn't control the strength of his hand. Suddenly, the branches of the locust tree rustled, as if a strong wind was passing by, rustling the leaves.
"What's going on?"
Zuzu was puzzled. He held the locust beans and looked up at the locust branches that had just stopped shaking, with confusion on his face.
But Ying Huai was now sensing the direction the village chief was going, and had no time to explain to Zuzu. He only took the time to put a comforting message into the old lady's mind and then turned his attention away.
Over there, Ying Huai sensed that the ghost energy that had appeared on Tang Rufeng before was gathering.
Ying Huai had noticed the inexplicable ghost aura that appeared on Tang Rufeng as soon as it first appeared.
It's just that the source was not known at that time, and Ying Huai was worried for a while at the beginning. After all, people and ghost energy have been together for a long time. Regardless of whether the ghost energy has the intention to hurt people, they are two extremes after all, and one side will definitely be hurt.
However, these worries were resolved later when Ali caught a little mouse and the mouse was taken away by Tang Rufeng.
There was no sign of any danger to Tang Rufeng in the short term, so Ying Huai put his matter aside.
But just now, Ying Huai looked a few more times in the direction the village chief went, and then he realized that the ghost aura in the place where he was used to was getting stronger when he didn't notice it.
It has even reached the point of solidification.
Is this normal? Of course not!
The heaven and earth are abnormal. Could it be that the underworld is also abnormal, to the point where ghosts start to appear?
Just thinking about Ying Huai gives me a headache.
He is just a little demon plant, he really has no ability to take care of the affairs of heaven and hell!
Before this, he even had a hard time staying alive. Although it seems easier now, his spiritual energy is still not enough, and he starts to feel stretched when doing anything.
"What's going on here? Why is it cooler here than over there on such a hot day?"
The village chief walked towards the Tang family, but halfway through he felt something was wrong.
He stopped, muttered to himself in confusion, looked up and around, and looked around.
It's alright! The sun is shining.
I shook my head, thinking that I was being too suspicious.
"We still have our godmother in the village, what big deal can it be?"
Ying Huai was speechless when he heard his words.
Why should I trust him so much? He is just a half-dead demon plant!
"Old Tang, are you home? Open the door. I'm here to talk to Rufeng."
Looking at the closed gate in front of him, the village chief reached out and knocked on it.
While knocking, he tilted his head and looked into the yard through the gap in the gate.
At this time, it was impossible to tell whether there was anyone in the yard, it was very quiet.
"Hmm? Village chief, what's going on?"
Hearing the noise outside the yard, Grandma Tang opened the closed window in the house, looked out the gate, and then got up and went out.
He opened the gate and looked at the village chief with some curiosity.
Ever since her son Rufeng fell ill, she and her husband have been taking care of Rufeng and have not contacted the villagers for a long time.
That is, sometimes when he went out to work in the fields, he would talk to the villagers and chat for a while, and then he would run back home because he was worried about Tang Rufeng at home.
The village chief is also busy, apart from visiting Tang Rufeng every month to check on his situation and show his concern.
Normally, when we meet, I would ask a few more questions, comfort him, and let my eldest son help with the heavy chores.
"Come on, come in."
After opening the courtyard gate, Grandma Tang quickly led the village chief in to sit down.
In the two years after Tang Rufeng returned to the village, many matters that needed to be coordinated and handled were basically handled by the village chief.
The two old couple didn't understand these things, and Tang Rufeng's parents were busy working in the city.
"Why does your house feel so cool? Is the air conditioner on?"
As soon as he entered the main room, the village chief felt the chill.
This kind of coolness was different from the coolness he had felt outside at the beginning.
Before, when he was outside, he felt that the temperature was slightly lower as he got closer to the Tang family, but he could still feel the warmth when the sun fell on his body.
But it was different at the Tang family. As soon as he walked in and sat down at the table, in just a short while, the hot sweat on his body that had come out from walking outside had cooled down.
"The air conditioner is on such a low setting and it's still so hot outside. The sudden change in temperature can be harmful to your health."
The village chief was not prepared to continue talking about this irrelevant topic. After giving a warning, he was ready to shift the topic to the document he had just received.
"Where's your Tang Rufeng? Can you ask him to come out? This is about him."
As he spoke, the village chief lowered his head and took out the document in his hand and placed it on the table, ready for Tang Rufeng to look at it when he came out later.
While the village chief was speaking, Grandma Tang was listening on the side and poured him a glass of purified water. When she saw that the village chief had said this, she finally reacted and answered.
"I'm not really sure about the hot and cold you're talking about, but my wife really doesn't know what's wrong with her. She's had a cold for two days and is still lying in bed taking medicine and resting."
He first reached out and moved the water in front of the village chief farther away to prevent it from accidentally spilling on him, but then he answered the village chief's words in a very organized manner.
"As for Rufeng, he seems to be feeling much better these past two days, but he's still the same as before and doesn't like going out much. He's now staying with his grandfather to take care of him."
As Grandma Tang spoke, a smile appeared on her face.
She was obviously very happy that her grandson's health had improved.
"I'll go call him, wait a minute."
Ever since the little mouse came home, Tang Rufeng's health has indeed improved a lot thanks to its transformation of the ghost energy.
Also because of the presence of the little mouse, the evil spirit brought out by Tang Rufeng did not cause any harm to the old couple's bodies.
It was just ghost energy after all. Although it no longer had any intention of hurting anyone, its own characteristics still lowered the air temperature around the Tang family by one level.
Grandpa Tang caught a cold because of the sudden temperature difference between going out and coming home.
