As I walked down the mountain, the more I thought about it, the angrier I got. What life is good and cheap? Did I deserve my father's early death? He was born to serve others?

Superstition! Foolish!

In my heart, Old Man Zhang is already on par with a scammer. In all seriousness, who knows, he was just saying in his heart that he shouldn't try to cheat me of my money. As to how he knew about my dream and why he had the same birthmark as me, I now thought it was nothing more than a clever swindler.

After dinner, everyone gathered on the playground of the dormitory. They built a bonfire and started a bonfire party. Since we were at the edge of the village, we weren't afraid of interfering with the villagers' daily routine. Everyone was singing and dancing to their heart's content.

I was still alone in the bedroom, lying on the bed. This kind of overly lively scene really didn't suit me. In his boredom, he heard a knock on the door.

I got down from my bed and opened the door, only to see the big guy Zhang Shan standing outside. When he saw that it was me, he directly skipped the part of greeting me. The first sentence he said was, "Grandpa is sick!"

"He fell ill?" Before I could react, I subconsciously repeated his words.

"Humph!" I was just angered by you! " Zhang Shan saw that I did not react and was a little angry.

"Please, what's this got to do with me?" I have decided that they were liars. This time, it seemed like he was trying to cheat money. It was time to extort and extort.

"If it weren't for the fact that you made it sound so bad this afternoon, would Grandpa be so angry that he would be obsessed with phlegm?" The more Zhang Shan spoke, the more excited he became, he was already ready to beat someone up.

I looked at his hill-sized figure blocking the door. I might not be able to beat him, but he'll probably be able to save his money. Therefore, I took out my wallet from my pocket and gave the remaining money to Zhang Shan: "Here, this is the money for your grandfather's medical expenses. You can take care of it." In any case, in this small mountain village, you wouldn't be able to spend money. Our food, accommodation, and cars are all paid for by the company, so it doesn't matter to me whether I have the money or not these few days.

However, I did not feel any guilt towards my belief that the grandfather-grandson pair was a "liar." I only gave him the money so that they would stop bothering me. I even wondered if I should go down and call the police after tomorrow's expansion, so I could arrest them all.

"I don't want your money!" Zhang Shan's gaze directly fell on me as he looked over the bill that was wagging in front of his face.

"No?" "I was also stunned, didn't you come to find me so late at night just to scam me for money?" If you don't want money, then what do you want? "

"I need you to do me a favor. Grandfather said that if you help me with this favor, then I will do whatever you want to do in the future. We will definitely not disturb you again!" Even the matter of him taking me as his master can be voided. " Zhang Shan recited the conditions like he was reciting from behind his back. I knew that Old Man Zhang must have asked him to say this.

"What a joke!" "I leaned against the doorframe, looking at him with disdain as I laughed." My matters were originally not up to you guys to decide, but now it's as if I'm asking for your consent. You should tell the old man that he was the one who tricked me into taking him in as my master. There's no way I can count it! "

"Grandfather also said that if you don't agree to anything, I can use my method to resolve it." Zhang Shan imitated me and leaned on the other side of the door frame, looking at me with a mischievous smile.

I recalled the scene where he carried me up the mountain at noon. I couldn't help but say with uncertainty, "There are so many people here. I dare you!" To tell the truth, I was still worried that he had done something to me.

"I may not be able to take you away with me under the pressure of so many people, but I can at least beat you up so that you won't be able to get out of bed for three or five days. As for me, I was only given a scolding by a village branch to sweep the f * cking toilet for a month. "Choose whether you want to go or not!"

Who said that the big guy had four limbs and a brain? This fellow was the most favorable critic for this sentence! At this moment, I was speechless.

I walked in front dejectedly, and Zhang Shan followed closely after me after taking two steps. After exiting the base, I stopped and turned around to ask Zhang Shan, "Where are you going?"

"Zhao Youde, the western end of the village!" The guy pulled two sheep from somewhere and held the rope in his hand while the two bearded guys bleated at me from behind.

"Please! How do I know who Zhao Youde is? "Where is his home?" Talking to this guy was extremely tiring.

"Here!" It's the yard up by the river with the lights on. " Zhang Shan raised his chin, and then pointed in my direction.

The two of us walked in the darkness of the village. Mountaineers had little entertainment at night, and almost every household turned off their lights at eight or nine in the morning and went to bed. This made Zhao Youde, the only one with a light on, stand out.

When we were almost to the gate of Zhao Youde's house, I noticed that there was a white muslin over the gate and a white banner thirty feet tall on the wall. Two big white lanterns were flickering, looking especially frightening in the night.

A man in his senior year led a young man about my age. When he saw us approaching from afar, he quickly got up from his squat corner and walked up to us.

"Shan, where's Master Zhang? Eh? "What are you doing?" The elderly man saw Zhang Shan following an unfamiliar young man and walking over, holding onto two sheep in his hands, and was puzzled.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Zhao. It just so happened that grandpa was sick today. What your family has asked of you, Grandfather said, seems to be out of the question. Tomorrow will be the seventh, I must send Second Uncle away before midnight tonight. This is the sheep you sent over a few days ago. Grandpa wants me to return it to you. Also, Grandfather said that since we failed to complete the task, we have something to do with you. Let me bring the old sheep over as well, and treat it as a bit of compensation to Second Aunt. "

As Zhang Shan was speaking, a village woman with a haggard expression walked out of the courtyard. After hearing Zhang Shan's words, she sighed: "Forget it, Shan, how can we blame Master Zhao? If we have to blame anyone, we should blame him for being unlucky, us mother and daughter both being unlucky. "If you can't find the money, then don't. Just let them go with virtue."

"That's right, Shan. People who are alive shouldn't bother people to begin with. You can do your best. Take the sheep back. Master Zhao had contributed a lot to the village in the past few decades, so who wouldn't remember his good points? So what if he did? Furthermore, Master Zhao is now ill, and eating more meat can make up for it. " The elderly man followed suit.

"Huh?" Zhang Shan also sighed. We'll talk about this later. Tonight, the most important thing is to recall Second Uncle's nightmare and send him to the place where he should go. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he were to overdo it. I'll do what I have to do tonight. "

I looked coldly at their one-on-one responses. Ye Zichen sneered in his heart. So they really are a bunch of acrobats. To think that they were willing to give up like that. I'd like to see what they're up to.
