Because no one came to him to exorcise ghosts, Zhang Meng spent the following days working in the fields to earn work points.
After these two times of “helping” others, the family no longer has to worry about food.
However, this is not Zhang Meng's wish. Her wish is to ensure that her grandmother and younger brother at home will have enough food and drink.
And in the future, I want my only younger brother to be able to go to college.
At breakfast today, Grandma Zhang ate very little, and her expression looked sadder than usual.
When Zhang Meng asked, she found out that the next two days would be the anniversary of her deceased parents' death.
However, this day reminded Zhang Meng of something even more terrifying. In her previous life, her younger brother, Xiao Zhang Tao, died the day before her parents' death anniversary.
Thinking of this, Zhang Meng felt cold all over, as if he had been pulled out of an ice hole in the middle of winter.
Looking at her younger brother eating breakfast in Xiangxiang, Zhang Meng secretly vowed that in this life, she would make sure her younger brother grew up safely in this world and let her watch him get married and have children with her own eyes.
After breakfast, while Grandma Zhang was washing dishes in the kitchen, Zhang Meng called her brother over from feeding the chickens in the yard and earnestly admonished him, "Brother, do you listen to me?"
Little Zhang Tao nodded, "Tao'er, listen."
Zhang Meng caressed her brother's cute round head lovingly and said seriously, "Remember what I said. Don't go anywhere these few days, especially to places with water. Do you hear me?"
"Why?" Little Zhang Tao asked curiously.
"Why are you asking so many questions? Anyway, I'm saying this for your own good. Just listen to me. Got it? Don't go to places with water, especially near the river."
"Okay." Little Zhang Tao agreed in a soft voice. Zhang Meng was still a little worried and insisted that her brother repeat what she had just said. Only after she was sure that he had listened to her did she feel relieved and continued to work in the fields to earn work points.
After a day of farm work, Zhang Meng returned home and found that there were guests at home.
"Third Auntie, why are you here? Did something happen at home again?"
Grandma San smiled and waved her hand, "It's okay, it's okay, I just came to see you guys, to see if you need any help?"
What Zhang Meng didn't know was that her image in Sanpo's heart was now as great as the gods that everyone believed in.
"I'm glad you're okay. Then, Auntie San, please take a seat. I'll go in and change my clothes first."
My clothes, after a day's work, are now covered in mud.
The third wife hurriedly said, "Okay, go change your clothes quickly."
Zhang Meng went into the house, changed into clean clothes and came out again.
Grandma San, who was helping Grandma Zhang pick vegetables, immediately wiped the water off her hands and patted the stool that had been prepared long ago. "Xiao Meng, Grandma San has a favor to ask of you. Do you have any extra talisman paper? Give me a few, or I can buy them from you with money."
"Third Auntie, why do you need the talisman paper?"
Grandma San smiled sheepishly and said honestly, "After what happened with your brother San Gou, I'm scared. What if this ghost comes to my family again one day? I'd better keep some talismans at home to make me feel more at ease."
After listening to her explanation, Zhang Meng couldn't help but smile, and finally gave Sanpo four or five pieces of evil-repelling talisman paper that she had drawn.
Of course, the money was confiscated. We all lived together, so it was a bit unreasonable to charge money.
Seeing that tomorrow is the anniversary of her parents' death, and her younger brother has not been to the river because of her instructions, and is now safe and sound, Zhang Meng finally felt relieved seeing all this.
Today in my previous life was the day my younger brother drowned. In this life, nothing happened. Does this mean that my younger brother’s disaster is over?
The next day, Grandma Zhang took her two granddaughters and grandson to the mountain to pay tribute to her deceased son and daughter-in-law.
After the worship, Zhang Meng immediately went back to work in the fields.
Today everyone in the village knew that today was the anniversary of Zhang Meng's parents' death, and they all tried their best to say something cheerful to comfort her.
As everyone kindly created an atmosphere, the sadness in Zhang Meng's heart gradually disappeared.
Just as it was almost time to get off work, a little boy about eight years old came to Zhang Meng in a hurry.
"Sister Zhang, something bad has happened to Zhang Tao. He, he fell into the river." The little man's name is Zhang Jiaming, and he is a good playmate of little Zhang Tao.
Zhang Meng was so scared that he dropped the hoe in his hand and immediately ran towards the river.
When she ran to the river, many villagers had already gathered there.
There were already two or three male villagers in the river trying to salvage the fish.
Zhang Meng looked at the calm river anxiously, tears flowing uncontrollably.
At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted, "Found it."
Zhang Meng quickly raised her head and looked into the river, and saw her lovely brother, now lifeless, being carried out of the water by a male villager and walked ashore.
Zhang Meng immediately stepped forward and looked at her pale brother, "Tao'er, I'm your sister. Open your eyes and look at me."
"Xiao Meng, I'm sorry, your brother may be dead." The male villager who was holding Zhang Tao told Zhang Meng the fact with a guilty look on his face.
Zhang Meng looked up and suddenly saw a wet man standing in the middle of the river. No, it should be said that he was a water ghost.
The water ghost's eyes glowed green as he stared at Xiao Zhang Tao.
Zhang Meng immediately remembered a story about water ghosts that she had read in that book.
It is said that the souls of people who drown in water will remain in the water, and they become water ghosts.
This water ghost cannot be reincarnated immediately. Only after finding a substitute can it leave the place where it died and go to the underworld to reincarnate.
If she guessed correctly, her brother was now the substitute found by this male water ghost.
Zhang Meng immediately grabbed little Zhang Tao, put him on the ground, then called a few villagers and whispered a few words to them. The villagers' eyes flashed with surprise, but they still nodded.
Zhang Meng immediately squatted down and tapped Zhang Tao's forehead and body several times, muttering a few spells.
After ordering, she immediately winked at the villagers she had just given instructions.
The villagers immediately shouted, "Hey, look, Xiao Tao is awake, he's fine."
"Yes, it's a blessing. If Xiao Tao had stayed in the water a little longer, he would have died."
When the water ghost standing in the middle of the water heard what the villagers on the shore said, anxiety flashed in his eyes. He immediately lowered his head and opened one of his hands. Suddenly, a ray of colorful light flew out from his hand and flew towards Xiao Zhang Tao.
When those rays of light flew over, Zhang Meng immediately reached out and pinched them accurately, pushing them towards little Zhang Tao.
At this time, little Zhang Tao, who was lying on the ground, coughed loudly a few times, and his mouth was full of water.
"Sister." Little Zhang Tao was frightened when he woke up and threw himself into Zhang Meng's arms.
