Chapter 451 Seeking a Talisman



Such a joyous occasion naturally brought happiness to the family as well.

He was only looking for his grandchildren, and the smile on his face seemed somewhat forced.

They're supposed to be cousins, but the gap between them is getting bigger and bigger.

When they graduate from university and return, they'll only be able to look up to them from afar.

Xun Liangcai is truly happy for his sister's family. With all the children doing well in the future, his sister and brother-in-law will have someone to rely on.

They had intended to treat their brother-in-law well, but to their surprise, he and his family not only brought their own food but also their prey. So they brought their sons home to bring over all the dried goods they had collected over the past few days.

"When I have some free time, I go up the mountain to pick some wild mushrooms. You can take them back with you when you leave."

It seems my parents won't be giving me anything. They can't expect me to come here with bags and bags of things only to leave empty-handed.

Xun Liangtian was somewhat annoyed that his second brother hadn't given him a heads-up, but then he saw his wife carrying a basket as she followed him in.

Sister-in-law Xun also gave her some dried mushrooms, while giving her husband a disapproving look. Was she the kind of person who didn't know manners?

However, we now have one less layer of protection than others, and our hearts are much less at ease.

Xun Liangcai slipped another peace talisman into my hand. I used to draw a lot of those in my spare time. Now that my cultivation level is declining, the quality of the talismans is getting worse and worse. You should find an opportunity to release all of these remaining stock.

Normally, I'm busy with work outside the village, so I only have a little time available outside the village. I have to find those jobs in my spare time.

After we finished eating, we were left to clean up the mess. Hua Xiangyun quietly pulled Xun Liangcai aside and slipped a wad of cash into his pocket.

These are all troublemakers; sending them away sooner will restore peace and quiet to the outside of the village.

Hua Xiangyun showed no joy. "This uncle will shamelessly accept it. He'll see what the boy dislikes, and as long as it's something his uncle can help with, his uncle will find it for him."

Do you know why?

His seventh aunt received the news and cried all the way back, but she never expected that as soon as you got close, your nephew's mental state would deteriorate significantly.

They rarely grow outside the house; they're all dried in the sun and saved to make a dish in winter.

During the conversation, Xun Xingshun heard that all the educated youth who had gone to the countryside with Xun Liangcai had passed the primary school entrance exam. He was filled with envy, saying that he would be very happy if the educated youth outside the village could pass the exam and leave.

"Seventh Uncle, what is he doing?" Xun Liangcai quickly took it out and handed it back to me.

"If he does that again, you'll get angry. Don't forget, you're his nephew. Do you really think he can hold a grudge against you?"

"Xiangyun, if he's still cunning, wait until next spring or autumn to come. There will be fewer mushrooms down the mountain then, and your aunt can take him down to find some."

Thinking it was just a child's curiosity, the young woman smiled and said to you, "It's rare, so you don't need to put in much effort to pick it up."

Hua Baoguo did not refuse his two brothers-in-law's kindness. "These things are really rare in the city, so I'll shamelessly accept them."

When you came back, you remembered that he had given you a talisman. You guessed that was the reason, so your seventh aunt gave the talisman under your body to your nephew. You thought that the symptoms would disappear in an instant.

Sure enough, Qiu Zhengli looked at Xun Liangcai with a hint of hesitation. "That nephew of Dali is taking money. I really couldn't bring myself to ask. That stuff is incredibly valuable; I have no idea how much I can rely on. Just a few eggs and family ties... it's really..."

Several strange things have happened around me, but I've never become suspicious or paranoid.

Hua Xiangyun said, "I hope so." To be honest, I also have a lot of doubts about my nephew. After all, I've been so unlucky, and my nephew from my wife's family almost lost his life in a traffic accident. Do I really think these ghosts will be able to do anything?

"When you get back, have his aunt collect some eggs for him. They can't afford to boil them and leave them to eat on the roadside after school."

Hua Xiangyun continued to stuff more into your pocket, saying, "This uncle shamelessly gave it to you."

"Seventh Uncle, keep that for Aunt to protect herself." As for how little it is, you'll give it to her anyway, since everyone has the same suspicions.

They knew that many people in the city needed these things, but in the end, they didn't ask for them.

Xun Liangcai thought to himself, "No wonder. After that, my seventh aunt kept secretly watching me, her eyes full of gratitude."

Ever since we found out we didn't pass the exam, we've had a long face every day, like someone owes us something.

Xun Liangcai didn't refuse, saying, "Thank you, Uncle."

Every day after work, they assign us tasks, and it's disheartening to watch.

"That's the talisman he gave me..."

Xun Liangcai knew that the problem was not yet solved when he heard this. Now that his seventh uncle was talking about it, it must be because his seventh aunt had given away the talisman.

The Hua family's brother-in-law was very polite and brought gifts for each of their families. They could still give away such a small amount of mountain produce.

As soon as his seventh aunt left, I went back to being like this.

Hua Xiangyun looked at the dried mushrooms thoughtfully, "Are there many mushrooms on the mountains around here?"

Although Grandma was like that, we were still wrong to find a home. Our lives were bad, and our little family used to be more comfortable.

We can't get our hands on the meat, but we definitely don't have time to prepare those dried mushrooms.

Xun Liangcai knew that if he said anything, the honest man would feel uneasy. "When spring comes, I'll save some dried mushrooms for you. Tonight, I'll make a big chicken stew with mushrooms. That's pretty good."

Your nephew's life was saved, and now he's living a pretty good life.

"Speaking of which, you should thank him. He knows that a few days later, his seventh aunt's nephew had a stroke, and even a shaman saw that it was bad. Everyone in the family was telling us to prepare for a funeral."

Those kids really have some common sense. In the future, when people move graves and collect bones, they will use earthenware jars. Over time, these jars might be exposed on the ground. I just happened to bump into them at that moment.

Seeking talent, he said, "Those ghosts were once human too, and under certain circumstances, we would also harm people. After all, the price we pay for harming people is less, so if he thinks that way, it won't seem so terrifying."

At the same time, I secretly reminded myself and my wife that we had to make sure Dong XZ was broken, otherwise if someone asked for a favor, would we give it to them or not?

"The rascal recalled that day, I was walking on a mountain road and I peed by the roadside. There was no earthenware pot around, so I peed into this pot. Everyone was guessing that the reason might be that."

Then, with a relaxed expression, I asked, "Xiangyun, did he say that the surrounding area is full of bad influences?"

Hua Xiangyun nodded quickly, "Worry about it. Leave all of those to your uncle. If you leave him some bad ones next year..."

In comparison, I felt that my own child was bad in every way. Sure enough, my old friend knew how to educate his child.

These spirits are also afraid of the yang energy beneath a person's body; if they truly clash with it, we will suffer.

Xun Liangcai had no idea what to do; he decided to wait and see.

Moreover, while my nephew is helping us, he could cause you trouble.
