Chen Qi shook his head: "You don't need to go in. Wait until those things arrive before coming in with them. No matter what sounds you hear, don't come in, understand? It's for the good of your descendants!"
The village chief's wife immediately nodded.
She indicated that she would not go inside unless her husband and children returned.
Shen Qi stepped to the door.
The door, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened with a whoosh.
An elderly man with a full head of white hair sat in the middle of the courtyard. As the gate opened, the old man lowered his head slightly and said, "This is not a place for rich people like you!"
There was a hint of frustration and desolation in his voice.
Chen Qi: "You spared my people, so I'm coming to take them back!"
"I treated you with courtesy, please don't..."
Shen Qi walked in at that moment.
He Xuan and the other two, also holding umbrellas, exchanged glances and reluctantly followed him in.
Upon seeing the umbrella Tian Hongtao was holding, the old aunt's voice softened, and she said with a hint of helplessness:
"I'm...sorry...he said he was willing, so he was just trying to fool me?"
"It's just a joke, don't take it too seriously. Xiao Tian, go inside and bring over five stools so we can sit down and chat!"
Tian Hongtao: ...I want to refuse.
He Xuan winked at him.
Tian Hongtao slung the umbrella over his shoulder, gritted his teeth, and went inside to get a stool.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
He took out five stools.
After sitting down, Tian Hongtao's whole body stiffened.
There are two rooms in this courtyard. One is where he just went in to get a stool, and the other is locked.
Inside that main room, there was another presence that nearly scared Tian Hongtao to death.
Because inside, in the very center of the room, there was a coffin, and inside lay a person dressed in a bright red wedding robe.
Tian Hongtao remembered that the village chief's wife had said the person sitting next to him was dressed in a bright red wedding robe...
Oh my god, that was terrifying!
He stood close to Cang Ze, who knew that the guy had been frightened again, so he had to hold his strength to avoid being pushed over.
“How come this person isn’t dead? He looks like he’s been dead for two days, how come he’s still alive?” Mrs. Wang suddenly asked, looking at Tian Hongtao.
Thump!
Tian Hongtao couldn't sit still any longer.
He fell off the stool and onto the ground.
Cang Ze was also pulled to sit on the ground.
Both of them had cold hands and feet.
They all thought of Tian Hongtao's portrait...
Chen Qi took out several teacups from somewhere, and pinched a few tea leaves, one leaf per cup, and brewed them with hot water from Aunt Wang.
"With me here, they naturally won't die. Come here, one cup of tea each. It'll calm you down, and you won't die after drinking it!"
"Slowly... Okay, as long as you don't mind the heat!"
Before Chen Qi could finish speaking, He Xuan came over and brought each of them a cup.
The three of them didn't even blow on it before taking a bite.
Drinking scalding hot water leaves your mouth full of blisters.
The three of them seemed oblivious, all looking at Chen Qi.
Chen Qi: "Sit down and relax! You don't have to die!"
"Thank you, Master!" He Xuan helped the two people sitting on the ground up.
However, she subconsciously sat down next to Shen Qi.
I always felt that Mrs. Wang was a bit eccentric.
It's still more reassuring to sit next to Shen Qi.
Mrs. Wang gently shook her head and said nothing more.
"Would you like some?" Chen Qi asked, handing a tea leaf to Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang narrowed her cloudy eyes, but did not respond: "It's impossible for me to release him. He is the most suitable puppet partner I have found in a hundred years! My body can't hold on for many more years. I must find a partner to ensure the village continues to be peaceful!"
