Chapter 217 The Weird Old Man



When going to Sanwa Village, Zhang Meng took a tricycle driven by Zhong the Hunter.

When we arrived at the Zhong family's house, the Zhong family's daughter-in-law was already waiting anxiously at the door.

As soon as she saw the two of them, she ran over with her son in her arms.

"Witch Zhang, I've finally got you." The Zhong family's daughter-in-law shouted this to Zhang Meng as if she was looking at a savior.

"Hello." Zhang Meng greeted her.

"Hello, hello, Witch Zhang, my name is Cuihua, you can just call me Cuihua." The daughter-in-law of the Zhong family smiled embarrassedly.

"Let's go inside and talk." Zhang Meng said.

The Zhong family's daughter-in-law then remembered that the other person had been there for so long but she had still kept him outside the door. So she slapped her forehead and invited Zhang Meng into the house with an embarrassed look on her face.

As soon as Zhang Meng sat down, Zhong the Hunter took the burnt talisman paper and placed it on the table. "Comrade Zhang, look at this! It scared me when it was burned."

Zhang Meng took a look and saw that the talisman paper had turned into ashes. It was obvious that it had encountered some evil thing and caught fire.

Seeing Zhang Meng staring at the pile of talisman paper ashes without saying a word, the Zhong family's wife was extremely anxious and couldn't help but speak first, "Witch Zhang, is my husband okay? You must help him. He's the only male laborer in our family. If anything happens to him, our family will fall apart."

Zhang Meng withdrew her gaze from the table, glanced at the couple, and said honestly, "If I'm not mistaken, this talisman paper spontaneously combusted because an evil spirit approached Comrade Zhong. In other words, it's fortunate that this talisman paper prevented Comrade Zhong from this disaster, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."

As soon as she finished speaking, the faces of Zhong the Hunter and his wife immediately turned pale.

The Zhong family's daughter-in-law couldn't bear the news and her whole body shook a few times.

"Wife, you have to hold on." Hunter Zhong quickly supported the wife of the Zhong family who was about to fall down.

The Zhong family's wife came to her senses and held onto Zhong the Hunter's arm tightly, tears streaming down her face. "Dad, what should I do? How could you get into this kind of trouble? If anything happens to you, what will happen to Xiaoda and me?"

When Hunter Zhong saw his wife crying, he could only wipe her tears because he was not good at speaking.

Seeing this, Zhang Meng had no choice but to continue, "Don't worry too much. Since this happened to me, I will do my best."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Zhong couple looked at her at the same time.

The Zhong family's wife stuffed her son into the hands of Zhong the Hunter, then quickly walked over to Zhang Meng and shook her hand. "Witch Zhang, I'm counting on you." Zhang Meng patted the back of her hand and immediately looked at Zhong the Hunter. "You just told me at my house that you'd been to that place at the end of the village. Can you take me there now?"

The Zhong family's wife had just finished wiping away her tears. When she heard Zhang Meng's words, she immediately looked over with wide eyes. "Could it really be that stinky old man's doing? I told you, that old man is always talking nonsense. You can tell at a glance that he's a bad guy."

Hunter Zhong pulled his wife aside with an embarrassed look on his face and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense. This matter has not been confirmed yet. And although Uncle He looks mysterious, I believe he can't be a bad guy."

Seeing that her husband was still speaking for the old man at this time, the Zhong family's wife was furious. She stretched out her hand and twisted his ear, "You, just be smart. You are such a fool. Would someone tell you in person if they were a bad guy? You are just a pig-headed person. Everyone is a good person."

Hunter Zhong hissed and let his wife pull his ears. After a while, the wife got bored and quickly let go.

Finally rescued, Hunter Zhong hurried away. Zhang Meng looked at the couple and smiled.

Although the two seemed to be a little noisy, she could tell from their expressions that this couple was the type that would become more affectionate the more they quarreled.

Not long after, Zhang Meng was led by Hunter Zhong to the place where they said Uncle He lived.

It was a very dilapidated tiled house.

Seeing Zhang Meng staring at the house, Hunter Zhong explained, "This house used to belong to a landlord in our village. They went through criticism and struggle sessions, and eventually the whole family seemed to be wiped out, leaving the house in this dilapidated state."

At this moment, an old man with white hair walked out of the dilapidated tile house.

"Who is speaking at my door?"

When Hunter Zhong heard the voice, he immediately called out to the old man who had come out, "Uncle He, it's me, Hunter Zhong. I brought some people here to take a look."

"It's you. This is my home. No one is welcome here. Leave here quickly, or I'll beat you with a stick." After giving the warning, the old man turned around and went back into the house.

Hunter Zhong looked at Zhang Meng a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Comrade Zhang, Uncle He has a temper like this, a little weird, so many people in the village don't want to get close to here."

Zhang Meng looked at the staggering figure entering and narrowed her eyes.

She actually smelled a strong ghostly aura from this old man.

Seeing Zhang Meng staring at Uncle He's back, Hunter Zhong immediately gave her a simple smile and explained, "Uncle He is like that. He has a very strange temper. That's why no one in the village wants to deal with him."

Zhang Meng glanced at him and saw that this honest man was still explaining for Uncle He who almost killed him. He shook his head, smiled, and turned back.
