Chapter 415 A Strange Story
In Zhu Chuideng's eyes, Ye Xiaoman was unable to carry any load on her shoulders or lift anything with her hands. When they arrived at the field, he and the old ox went to plow the land. Ye Xiaoman squatted on the edge of the field, and together with Zhu's brother and sister, who were kicked out of the house for making noise, they peeled bean pods and waited for planting in spring.
Stalking is boring.
Ye Xiaoman stared at Zhu Chuideng for a long time and came to the preliminary conclusion that Zhu Chuideng was just an ordinary farmer who went between home, farmland and selling goods in town.
Apart from his pretty face and the powerful beauty of his muscles bulging when he works, he is no different from an ordinary person.
Finally, a few brothers came to find Zhu Chuideng. Ye Xiaoman pricked up her ears and found that their topic was nothing more than discussing whether it was a good time to hunt wild boars in spring and whether they should go to the mountains to set traps - the mountains were more dangerous than before, but they had to go for the sake of their work.
Ye Xiaoman stared at Zhu Chuideng too blatantly, and the teenagers who were talking around Zhu Chuideng noticed it. They turned around and deliberately teased her, suddenly shouting "Aunt Zhu" in a mischievous way and giggling.
Without laughing for a few seconds, Zhu Chuideng took off his straw hat and fanned the back of his head.
"Aunt, I'm Kong Erxiao. Congratulations on your wedding." One of the dark-skinned boys took advantage of Zhu Chuideng not noticing, ran over and squatted beside Ye Xiaoman, asking for a piece of wedding candy.
Ye Xiaoman was just about to ask Zhu Chuideng's acquaintances for information when she suddenly heard the sound of bells clanging and gongs and drums.
Kong Erxiao, Zhu Xiaoge and Zhu Xiaomei immediately became excited, "The monk is performing a ritual."
Zhu Chuideng had just finished discussing hunting with his brothers when he heard the noise and turned around. Ye Xiaoman was running with a group of onlookers and her figure was almost gone.
The most imposing black-tiled bungalow in the village is the village chief's home.
There was an eight-immortal table at the door of the village chief's house, with statues of the Three Pure Ones enshrined and offerings such as three animals. Two Taoists were waving peach wood swords, chanting a long string of incomprehensible scriptures in strange accents, and performing rituals while shaking their heads.
They poked the talisman paper on the table with their swords and shouted, "Demon, show yourself now!" The talisman paper seemed to have caught something ominous and started to burn automatically without fire.
"Wow!" The surrounding villagers opened their mouths wide and burst into exclamations.
Ye Xiaoman stood in the crowd and shook her head.
These two so-called cultivators had no spiritual energy at all, and were even weaker than her fake five spiritual roots.
They take advantage of the villagers' desperation and extort money from them.
Ye Xiaoman looked around. The village was unusually lively. All the neighbors had come after hearing the noise, but Zhu Chuideng was not there.
"Where's the Chui Chuideng?"
Kong Erxiao stood beside Ye Xiaoman and ate melon seeds. "Brother Deng hates monks and doesn't want to watch these."
Ye Xiaoman smelled the scent of intelligence, "Did Zhu Chuideng have any grudges with the monks?"
As soon as she smiled, Kong Erxiao's face immediately turned red and he told her everything.
"Aunt Cherry, it's a long story."
Kong Xiaoer lowered his voice and asked mysteriously, "Has Uncle Zhu ever told you about Brother Deng's life story?"
Ye Xiaoman picked up the melon seeds from Kong Xiaoer's palm and started cracking them, "No."
"Everyone in the village knows about Brother Deng's affairs. Since you are already a family, it's okay for me to tell you this."
"Our Brother Deng has a miserable life." Kong Xiaoer sighed, looking up to the sky. "Brother Deng's birth was once a strange story in the surrounding villages."
Kong Xiaoer opened up and revealed all the details of Zhu Chuideng's life story.
Zhu Chuideng's life script started with a hell-level difficulty copy.
When Zhu Chudeng was giving birth, her mother suffered a difficult labor, resulting in two deaths.
Zhu Dalang, his biological father, aged ten years overnight. He bought a thin coffin and buried his mother in the back mountain of the village. The ancestral tombs of the Zhu family were gathered in the southeast of the back mountain in a sunny place.
The deceased's coffin was closed and he was buried in the earth. Three days after the funeral, a wandering cultivator came here and passed by the grave of Zhu Chuideng's mother. Suddenly, he heard the cry of a baby from beneath the grave.
There are many graves in the empty mountains and babies crying in the ghost tombs. Ordinary people would have been scared to death. However, the wandering cultivators relied on their magic weapons to protect themselves and bravely dug up the graves.
Under the dim moonlight, the wandering cultivator saw that the dead woman had a rosy complexion, a strange smile on her lips, and a crying baby in her arms.
The wandering cultivator found the scene before him eerie and terrifying. He finally bent down and picked up the baby from the coffin. Suddenly, he felt two gazes piercing his face like steel needles, and he glanced to the side out of the corner of his eye.
At some point, the dead woman opened her eyes. There was no white in her eye sockets, only black. She looked at him dimly, her ten fingernails growing seven inches long as she dug into his heart...
Kong Erxiao shook his head regretfully, "Deng's mother somehow turned into a zombie and was killed by a passing immortal. The immortal took Deng back to the village and returned him to Uncle Zhu."
The wandering cultivator ground Zhu Chuideng's mother to dust and scattered her ashes, and wanted to kill Zhu Chuideng as well. However, Zhu Chuideng was a living person after all, and he didn't want to get involved in the cause and effect, so he returned Zhu Chuideng to Zhu Dalang and suggested that Zhu Dalang kill Zhu Chuideng.
The original words of the casual cultivator were that he had cast a fortune and learned that the child's birth was unknown, with four pillars filled with pure yin and bad luck. His fate was too strong, and he would harm his mother before he was born, and would harm his father, relatives, and everyone in the world in the future. It would be a disaster if he kept him.
Zhu Dalang couldn't bring himself to do it, so the wandering cultivator sighed and muttered, "Maybe this is fate." He left without any further entanglement.
The words of the wandering cultivator were like a curse, and bad luck continued to haunt Zhu Chuideng. In the previous eight years, Zhu Dalang had married a second wife, who gave birth to a daughter, but all three of them had passed away one after another.
Ye Xiaoman said, "This casual cultivator seems to have only done what he was supposed to do. It doesn't make sense that Zhu Chuideng hates him to the extent that he hates all cultivators."
Kong Erxiao: "Oh, Brother Deng has always believed that his mother is not a demon, but has just temporarily entered a state of suspended animation and gave birth to him in a coffin. It was that monk who killed people indiscriminately."
"Brother Deng also said that the monk took him home out of kindness, but he suspected that there was a treasure buried in his family's ancestral tomb, and the spiritual energy of the treasure gave his mother a chance to live."
"It's just that the monk's cultivation level is low and he can't take the treasure, so he came to test his father's intentions."
"His parents, stepmother, and stepsister were all killed by the enraged monk."
Ye Xiaoman: "...This is a dark story. Zhu Chuideng is so sure of what he said. He must have seen something with his own eyes. I have to believe it."
Kong Erxiao: "Anyway, since then, gossip that Brother Deng is an evil star has spread throughout the village. Second Uncle Zhu originally didn't want to take Brother Deng in, if it weren't for the pressure from the elders, if it weren't for his desire for the inheritance left by Uncle Zhu, humph."
"Even now, there are evil spirits in the village, and many people think that it is Brother Deng who is responsible."
"It's just some baseless comments. I, Kong Erxiao, grew up with Brother Deng, and I'm living a good life, aren't I?"
When the melon seed shells fell to the ground, Ye Xiaoman had a new inspiration.
She rushed back home for eight hundred miles and woke up the sleeping Jing Zhui.
"Boss, get up and dig the grave!"
