Chapter 248 The theory of buying longevity

"Why is this child back?" A woman gritted her teeth while holding her sleeping child.

The young man on the side had an ugly face and an angry look in his eyes. He cursed: "You are not that damn scholar. Why are you meddling in other people's business? You are simply a bitch."

The woman on the side also nodded, with resentment in her eyes.

Then she looked at the young man and asked, "Now that people are coming back, can we still buy longevity?"

As she spoke, a look of expectation appeared in the woman's eyes.

Hearing this, the young man shook his head and said, "No, since the child is back, we have to wait for the next time Ren Biaozi comes to the door."

After hearing his words, the woman immediately collapsed and cried: "How long will it take to wait for the next Biaozi? I can't wait that long. I only have thirty years to live. If I don't let the longevity god extend my life for another twenty years, I will die of old age like those short-lived species!"

When the young man heard what she said, his expression turned ugly. He looked directly at the child in the woman's arms with a look of disgust in his eyes.

Seeing that the young man was silent, the woman wiped her tears, looked at him, and said in a hoarse voice: "Can't you also live for another twenty years? Aren't you in a hurry?"

"Shut up!"

The young man was extremely impatient at this time and roared at her.

"Well..." At this moment, the child seemed to be awakened by the roar. He opened his eyes in a daze, looked at his mother with tears in his eyes, and asked with concern: "Mom, why are you crying?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to wipe away his mother's tears, with a look of worry in his eyes.

"It's okay. Mom saw you came back, so she cried for joy." The woman smiled reluctantly and comforted in a low voice.

The young man on the side saw this and remained silent, his eyes filled with indifference.

At this time, this scene was happening in every family in the village. The parents of those children hated Li Si to the core and wanted to eat him alive to relieve their hatred.

At the entrance of the village, an old woman looked in the direction of the village with a strong look of ridicule in her eyes.

"Is everything ready?" At this time, a stooped old man walked over from the shadows and whispered.

When the old woman saw the old man, she nodded and said, "We are ready. We will move the people in the village to another place tonight."

"Hey...how did this happen?" The old man coughed and sighed.

Hearing the old man's sigh, the old woman shook her head and said: "Every year, the longevity god will get a batch of blood food, but I didn't expect that he would keep looking for our village all these years."

Speaking of this, she sighed and said: "It's a pity that the underworld can't take care of this matter. It's because the parents of those children are willing to sell their children to live longer, and it's the hands of Biaozi, and the underworld can't catch it." handle.

Haha, a child has a life span of forty years. If I were alive, I would not be able to resist temptation. "

Hearing this, the old man also shook his head, and then said with a smile: "When I said this, I wanted to laugh a little. I didn't expect that the longevity god would be so unlucky this time, and the matter of selling longevity would be disturbed by a scholar. I went to check it out. , that man Biaozi is already dead, and the longevity god may not be able to eat blood food this year."

Hearing the old man's words, the old woman was slightly startled, then smiled and said: "I didn't expect that he is still a ruthless character. I was wrong about him."

The old man also smiled, and then said with a serious face: "It's already late now, Ren Biaozi is dead, we'd better move the people in the village quickly, otherwise it will be a big trouble if the longevity god comes."

"Okay, let's do it quickly." After hearing this, the old woman nodded cautiously.

Then the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and their figures disappeared into the darkness.

Li Si tossed and turned in bed, the gloomy faces of the children's parents always lingering in his mind, making him unable to sleep.

There is something wrong with this village. Granny Liu is weird, and the parents of those children are even weirder.

He always felt that when he sent those children home, their parents looked at him as if they were enemies and wished they could eat him alive.

Could it be that these children were actually sold by their parents? But this doesn't make sense, because the children's expressions of joy when they see their parents cannot be faked.

If it was sold, then you can definitely tell the difference.

"It's so weird." Li Si sat up from the bed, frowning tightly.

He didn't believe that all the people in this village were ghosts, because it was too scary. His yin and yang eyes looked at all the people in the village and found that there was nothing unusual about them.

This also means that if the people in the village are afraid of ghosts, then they are all ghosts above the intermediate ghost level.

At this moment, an idea flashed through his mind and he immediately stood up from the bed.

A chill enveloped his whole body, and he suddenly remembered that when he was sending his children back, there was no old man coming out of any of the children's homes.

This is obviously not normal. If a person does not have an elderly person in his or her family, then it is understandable. However, if all the children do not have an elderly person in their family, this is abnormal.

It's impossible for all the old people in their family to go back to sleep.

Thinking of this, Li Si immediately walked out of the room.

After coming out, he found that the bay horse was still gnawing on the hay he had prepared at the door of the yard, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Afterwards, Li Si walked into the village.

After walking into the village, he found that the atmosphere in the village was very strange and there was no sound at all. This made Li Si feel that although the houses in the village were complete, they lacked a trace of popularity, just like a deserted village that had been deserted for a long time.

Thinking of this, he found a nearby courtyard, walked in, pushed open the house, and looked inside.

The results of checking in the house surprised Li Si. He found that everything in the room was very neat, but there was no one there.

People seemed to disappear out of thin air.

Next, he searched all over the village and found that there was no one left in the village, and the only person was himself.

"Scholar..." At this moment, an old woman suddenly appeared in the distance and waved to Li Si.

Looking at the old woman, Li Si's face became cautious. This old woman was the same Granny Liu he had met before. He was already sure that this Granny Liu was a ghost, and the disappearance of Wangjiacun was also very possible. Something to do with her.

Thinking of this, Li Si walked over.

"Who are you? Where have the people in the village gone?" He looked at Granny Liu with an ugly expression.

When Grandma Liu heard his question, she smiled and said: "Scholar, I am the landlady here. Thank you very much for sending these children back this time. You have done me a big favor. So I will give you a piece of advice. Recently, if you encounter a smiling old man in white clothes, you must stay away from him.

As for the people in the village, you don't have to worry. I have moved them elsewhere and they will live normally. "

Hearing Granny Liu say that she was a landlady, Li Si was slightly relieved. He understood that he didn't have to worry about the safety of the villagers at all.

Because he learned from Nie Da that these gods from the underworld will always protect the people in their place and generally will not harm them, so the safety of these villagers has been guaranteed.

It's just that the old man in white that the landlady mentioned made Li Si a little confused, because in his memory, he had never had any grudge against any old man in white.

Thinking of this, Li Si was about to ask Granny Liu, but at this moment he suddenly discovered that Granny Liu had disappeared without a trace.
