Seeing the expression on Zhao Youliang's face, Director Zhou immediately asked him a question.
"What's wrong, Quantum? Is something the matter?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Youliang quickly shook his head, indicating that he was fine.
He didn't want to tell everyone everything, not because he was deliberately keeping it a secret, but because telling ordinary people about supernatural things was useless and would only cause them more trouble.
Director Zhou didn't press further, but simply sighed softly.
“Quantum, I know you’re really capable and kind, but there’s no need to make things difficult for yourself.”
"Like I said before, we should pay for the sins we've committed... I'm already extremely grateful that you were able to save my son."
At this point, Director Zhou took out a bankbook from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Youliang without saying a word.
“Quantum, I know that your sister-in-law and I will not survive, and none of our relatives will survive either.”
"This is our life savings. Half of it is for you, and the other half is for you to pass on to the children when they grow up."
"Child...child, if you can help me raise him, I will be eternally grateful and I will kowtow to you!"
"If you can't raise them, please send them to an orphanage! Please!!"
At this point, Director Zhou made a gesture as if he were about to kowtow to Zhao Youliang.
Zhao Youliang respected the other person's character and could not accept it, so he quickly helped him up.
"Brother Zhou, what are you doing?! Stop doing that!!"
"If... I mean if, you and your sister-in-law really were harmed by something evil, I will raise the child to adulthood, just like my adoptive father raised me!"
"This money will definitely all be used for the children!"
"It's not just yours, it's the same for Brother Chen's family and Li Mao's family!"
Upon hearing Zhao Youliang's words, Director Zhou was moved to tears.
Aside from repeatedly saying "okay," he couldn't say anything else for a while.
Actually, there was something Director Zhou didn't tell Zhao Youliang: when the two elders appeared to him in his dream last night, they were being escorted there by evil spirits.
They arrived covered in wounds and told Director Zhou:
People from the five major surnames are doomed, everyone in this town is doomed, except for Zhao Youliang and Sister-in-law Yingchun.
That's why we have this situation of entrusting the orphan to someone today.
If it weren't for the possibility of life and death, who would be willing to entrust their child to someone else?
Let alone entrusting your life to someone, you'd probably think about them even for a few days!
Alas, the hearts of parents are always full of love and worry!
After leaving the mourning hall of the Zhou family elders, Zhao Youliang felt heavy-hearted.
However, he quickly turned his grief into strength and devoted himself to spiritual practice.
After all, only by having high spiritual cultivation can one save their life and the people they want to save!
During his cultivation, Zhao Youliang was pleasantly surprised to find that his cultivation had improved significantly.
Although I don't know exactly how high it has become, it's definitely much higher than it was before yesterday.
Zhao Youliang is now capable of dealing with at least one vengeful ghost that has produced strange phenomena!
How could this be? Could it be because it absorbed the power of the old immortals?!
With this thought in mind, Zhao Youliang, feeling guilty, practiced even more diligently.
Time flies, and night falls in the blink of an eye.
Despite the oppressive atmosphere, the barbecue stalls remained busy, and the people drinking there all had gloomy faces, as if it were a final celebration.
Meanwhile, at the Water and Land Dharma Assembly on the other side, the chanting of sutras continued unabated.
To Zhao Youliang, it sounded more like the menacing laughter of vengeful ghosts.
"Damn it, is there really no hope?"
Zhao Youliang cursed under his breath as he angrily stared at the evil spirits at the Water and Land Ritual.
Sensing Zhao Youliang's gaze, the vengeful ghosts, led by the two puppets, immediately looked back.
His ashen face looked even more terrifying under the stark white light.
Zhao Youliang had suffered greatly since childhood and had a gentle but firm personality. Seeing this scene stirred up the fighting spirit in his bones.
Therefore, instead of avoiding eye contact, she silently asked, "What are you looking at?"
"If you keep looking at me, I'll fight you to the death right now, you believe me?!"
Perhaps because of the awe-inspiring power of "selflessness" last night, the ghosts immediately began to tremble after Zhao Youliang unleashed his fury.
At the same time, led by the two puppets, they disappeared with a whoosh.
"this?!"
The scene before him left Zhao Youliang completely bewildered.
"Are you all afraid of me? Do you think I'm that powerful?"
"No way... How about we try fighting that thug right now?"
"If I can beat a dog, then that means I'm really good..."
While pondering to himself, Zhao Youliang glanced at the big yellow dog that had come with him with ill intent.
At this moment, Big Yellow was carrying a bunch of little puppies on its back, bowing and scraping around Sister Yingchun, its face full of flattery.
Upon noticing Zhao Youliang's "malicious" gaze, he immediately looked over alertly.
"Woof woof woof!!"
Seeing this, Zhao Youliang mustered his courage and went to meet him, and recklessly uttered that classic line.
"Brother Dog, Brother Dog, don't get me wrong, I just want to kill you, or be killed by you!"
The big yellow dog was stunned when it heard this, clearly it was the first time in its life it had heard such a bizarre request.
He immediately let out a howl and pounced on Zhao Youliang, pinning him to the ground and subjecting him to a brutal beating.
Poor Zhao Youliang was still powerless to resist.
"Ouch, it hurts so much!"
"Brother Dog, Brother Dog, be gentle! I was wrong, I was wrong, okay?!"
"I admit I got cocky, I became arrogant..."
While the big yellow dog was making its move, the little lackeys certainly weren't idle, and they started "misbehaving" on Zhao Youliang's crotch.
While causing mischief, they chanted slogans in unison: "Grandpa Yellow is so mighty, he beat Quantum until he cried out in pain!"
Fortunately, Sister-in-law Yingchun felt sorry for Zhao Youliang and quickly stopped him when she saw what was happening.
"Big Yellow, what are you doing? Why are you bullying Quantum again? Stop it right now!"
The big yellow dog and his lackeys were clearly habitually afraid of this beautiful, pretty widow.
He stopped immediately upon hearing this, but still stared at Zhao Youliang with hostility in his eyes.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Youliang quickly got up with a groan and hid behind Yingchun's sister-in-law.
Upon seeing this, the other barbecue diners immediately burst into laughter, creating a commotion.
Unfortunately, he quickly swallowed his laughter under the unfriendly gaze of the big yellow dog.
The situation was like a duck quacking happily when suddenly someone grabbed it by the neck.
The townspeople have suffered from dogs for far too long...
Seeing this, the big yellow dog finally withdrew its fierce gaze with satisfaction and carried its little lackeys back to the paper shop to guard the door.
When the barbecue diners saw the big yellow dog leave, they instinctively got up to see it off, their movements perfectly synchronized.
Seeing this, Sister Yingchun shook her head helplessly and asked Zhao Youliang in a low voice.
"Quantum, what did you do to offend Big Yellow?"
"Look what you've done to yourself..."
Zhao Youliang, feeling bitter inside, immediately pouted and voiced his thoughts.
Sister-in-law Yingchun was also very surprised when she heard this: "What? The evil spirits over there are afraid of you? Why would they be afraid of you?!"
"Wait a minute, I know why. They're not afraid of you. Look ahead..."
