Chapter 155 Tang Tang is in trouble
Chu Runrun sighed helplessly. She was born to attract ghosts, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Alright! Let's eat quickly. We can think about this after dinner."
Ning Zhi said this and gave the last piece of duck to Chu Ruanruan.
Chu Runrun only ate half of it and couldn't eat any more.
"Third brother, I don't want to eat duck anymore. Chi Longfei hasn't eaten a single piece yet. Give it to him!"
"All right!"
Just as Ning Zhi was about to give the duck to Chi Longfei, Chi Longfei quickly leaned back holding the bowl, his face full of disgust.
“I don’t like this!”
Chi Longfei shook his head like a rattle.
"I remember you enjoyed the roast duck last time. Why do you hate the duck so much this time?" Tian Yuyuan asked puzzledly.
"I don't like smoked duck, you guys eat it!" Chi Longfei laughed dryly.
The duck was smoked with peach wood, it would be strange if he could eat it!
Seeing this, Ning Zhi could only eat it himself.
Soon, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill. Chu Runrun went to lie down on the sofa, and suddenly saw Ning Zhi's cell phone ringing.
It was a video call from Tang Tang.
"Third brother, Tang Tang sent you a video!"
Hearing this, Ning Zhi immediately dropped his bowl and chopsticks and walked over quickly.
Looking at Ning Zhi's anxious look, Chu Runrun couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Third brother, this video call lasts for one minute. If you're a second late, Tang Tang won't hang up!"
As soon as Chu Ruanruan finished speaking, the video call was hung up.
Chu Ruanruan: "..."
When did she become a jinx?
Ning Zhi called back immediately, but no one answered after waiting for a long time.
"Strange, why didn't you answer it?" Everyone gathered around curiously.
Ning Zhi put down the phone with a bit of disappointment: "Maybe something happened suddenly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone rang again.
Ning Zhi quickly answered the phone, but Tang Tang in the screen looked terrified and tearful.
Ning Zhi couldn't help but frown: "Tang Tang, what's wrong with you?"
"Ning... Teacher Ning, my grandpa is back and he wants to kill all of us, help... help..."
Before he could finish his words, the screen went black.
"Tang Tang! Tang Tang! Speak!"
The video was interrupted, and Ning Zhi immediately called back, but no one answered no matter how many times he called.
Ning Zhi called again, but Tang Tang's phone was turned off.
"What happened? Tang Tang just said that her grandfather is back, but wasn't her grandfather dead?" Tian Yuyuan asked in surprise.
"Third brother, do you have the phone number of Tang Tang's parents?" Chu Runrun asked hurriedly.
Ning Zhi shook his head, but then he remembered: "Second brother and Tang Tang's father are partners, he should have it!"
So Ning Zhi quickly called Ning Feng and asked for Tang Xinquan's number.
But when he called, the phone was turned off.
"Third brother, do you know where Tang Tang's hometown is?"
Ning Zhi frowned and nodded.
That night, Chu Runrun contacted Han Liming and asked him to try to contact the police station in Tang Tang's hometown to see if he could find out about the situation in Tang Tang's family.
This group of people set out on the journey to Tang Tang's hometown.
Tang Tang's hometown is in a small mountain valley in the northwest and is extremely poor.
Tang Tang told Ning Zhi that her mother had seven brothers and sisters, and Xin Hailian was the eldest.
Because she was a girl, Xin Hailian only studied for a few days before her father, Xin Chengzhi, stopped her from studying and wanted to save the money for her brothers and sisters.
Xin Hailian hated the unfairness of fate, so she resolutely left the mountain village and came to the city despite Xin Chengzhi's obstruction. She relied on her own hard work and finally had the life she has today with Tang Xinquan.
Because she had a falling out with her father, Xin Hailian has rarely been back home in all these years.
When Xin Chengzhi passed away this time, she had to take her family back to attend the funeral.
The car drove all night and Chu Runrun and the others fell asleep in the car.
Ning Yu, Ning Feng, Ning Zhi and Ning Xuan took turns driving and finally entered the northwest at dawn.
When they were almost at their destination, the car stopped. There was a mountain road ahead. The RV was too big and it was too dangerous to drive over, so they simply rested in the RV for a while and prepared to drive the off-road vehicle over later.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the sun in the northwest was shining scorchingly.
When Chu Runrun woke up, Ning Xuan, Ning Yu, Ning Feng, and Ning Zhi, who were driving, were still sleeping, but everyone else had already woken up.
As soon as Chu Runrun got out of the car, she saw a desolate sandy land and towering mountains standing before her.
The northwest wind brought with it the scorching sun and sand that blew onto Chu Runrun's face, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes.
"Tang Tang's hometown is quite remote!"
"Yes! Otherwise, why are these people so feudal? They have refused to leave the mountains for generations, and even poverty alleviation efforts cannot help them!" Tian Yuyuan said speechlessly.
"Where is Tang Tang's hometown?" Ge Hanlin asked.
Tian Yuyuan pointed to a place with rows of thatched houses at the foot of a mountain in the distance and said, "That's it!"
"In this day and age, there are still such shabby thatched houses. This is too backward!" Ge Hanlin said in surprise.
Chu Runrun looked at the residential area below with seriousness in her eyes.
After the four people in the car woke up, the nine people and the dog carried their belongings and drove down the off-road vehicle to the foot of the mountain.
Before getting off the bus, Chu Runrun gave each person a piece of talisman for self-defense. The entire village was shrouded in yin energy, and there was no telling what was inside.
When they arrived at the entrance of the mountain village, Ning Zhi tried to call Tang Tang again.
This time the call actually went through, but it was a man who answered the phone.
"Hey, who are you looking for?"
Ning Zhi frowned: "I'm looking for Tang Tang, is she there?"
"Oh! Wait!"
The man on the other end of the phone sounded extremely impatient.
"Tang Tang, someone is looking for you!"
Soon, Tang Tang's voice was heard.
“Hello…Hello!”
Tang Tang's voice was trembling with fear.
"Tang Tang, we are at the village entrance now, please come out and pick us up!"
After Ning Zhi finished speaking, there was a long pause before Tang Tang's voice came:
"well!"
Before hanging up the phone, Ning Zhi said again: "Don't be afraid! We are all here!"
Tang Tang seemed to be crying, and her voice became even more unstable.
Not long after, Tang Tang walked out of the village. When she saw Ning Zhi and the others, she could no longer hold back her tears.
"Teacher Ning, wuwuwu..."
Ning Zhi hugged Tang Tang and patted her back gently: "It's okay! We're all here!"
Tang Tang cried for a long time before she stopped: "Teacher Ning, you...you are finally here!"
"What exactly happened? What happened that day? Why can't I get through to you on the phone?" Ning Zhi asked hurriedly.
Tang Tang was about to answer when he heard a man's voice behind him:
"Tang Tang, who allowed you to escape? Hurry up and keep vigil for Grandpa!"
A burly young man walked towards Tang Tang angrily. When he saw Ning Zhi and the others, his eyes were full of vigilance:
"Who are they? You called them here!"
Tang Tang was obviously very afraid of this man and quickly stepped back in fright.
"They...they are my friends!"
