He was the one carrying the umbrella; he had no idea there was someone else next to it.
He Xuan and Cang Ze: ...What a coincidence, they didn't even know there was another person traveling with them.
The three of them looked at Chen Qi with trepidation.
This umbrella was given to me by Chen Qi.
Chen Qi calmly said, "He is human, and in his current state, he is a living soul. He won't harm you. Didn't you come to invite that powerful being? Let's go together, and you'll be able to see his true form!"
Tian Hongtao: "Then... how could the village chief's auntie see it? We can't see it!"
The village chief's wife smiled sheepishly: "Well, I have the ability to see ghosts. I always try to shield myself when I'm outside, but I don't pay much attention to it at home. I didn't expect you to bring one of them with you. I didn't recognize them all. Please forgive me!"
Tian Hongtao: ...It would have been better not to ask at all; it's even more frightening.
According to this woman, such sights can be seen everywhere in the village.
"My aunt is over 90 years old. She won't even let me into her yard, except for my wife who brings her food!" the village chief said with some difficulty.
Aunt Wang was married three times when she was young, and was divorced three times because she never had any children.
After being divorced for the third time, she returned to the village. Now that she was older, she had no intention of remarrying.
Later, the villagers worried that she would affect the reputation of the other girls in the village, so they let her live in a cave behind the village.
The villagers helped repair two rooms, and the village chief's wife delivered the meals.
They've been sending them for so many years.
Aunt Wang never returned to the village. She lived a very simple life on her own for many years.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving, Chen Qi immediately requested to meet this Old Lady Wang.
In particular, after leaving and returning, he brought back four young men.
Aunt Wang was quite a scolder; he had been scolded by her when he was young. But after he listened to Aunt Wang's advice and married this woman, her scolding lessened.
However, they still wouldn't let him into the courtyard on the other side of the cave.
They wouldn't even let her live in the village in her old age.
Chen Qi: "She will see us. The village chief, please help me buy some things!"
"You tell me, and I'll have someone go and buy it!"
"One whole pig, one whole chicken, one whole cow, one whole fish, all one of each! No need to butcher them, just bring them over! Here's ten thousand yuan, the sooner the better!"
“These are for the grand ceremony. Fish and chicken are easy to find; there are plenty in the village. But the larger items have to be taken outside the village. I'm worried about that…”
Shen Qi knew exactly what the village chief was worried about.
They were simply worried that the villagers wouldn't dare to go out, fearing that the curse would strike.
"Don't worry, just tell them seven times at the village entrance that you're going to prepare items for the memorial service, and you'll be safe to come and go! It would be best if the village chief took the younger members of your family with him to buy the best items, and the rest of the money can be used as a delivery fee!"
Village Chief: ...Alright then.
It's not that the village chief is greedy for money.
The village chief thought that if there were any consequences, his own family would bear them, which was better than being scolded by other families.
The village chief drove out with his son and two grandsons. At the village entrance, each of them said more than ten times: "Go and prepare the items for the memorial service."
Only then did they slowly leave.
Strangely enough, they didn't feel any discomfort even after they arrived in the county.
However, without delay, they quickly went to the livestock market to buy everything, and then went to the nearby fruit shop to buy some other items needed for the memorial service before hurrying back.
At this time, Chen Qi also arrived in the mountains, led by the village chief's wife.
In front of a cave, there was a small courtyard.
"My aunt lives here. I'll go in and let her know!" the village chief's wife said softly.
I was worried about the old lady getting angry; it was terrifying.
