Chapter 1917 Villagers Discuss

Most people in Niulan Village heard the noise at night.

So during the day, the village chief asked everyone to put down their work and gather together.

Niu Shun, who was involved and had seen the shadow with his own eyes, was called to the front for questioning.

Niu Shun told the villagers everything that happened last night, and they were terrified. After all, Niulan Village had never encountered such a supernatural thing, and this was the first time in their lives. Is something big going to happen?

"Shunzi, are you sure someone is not deliberately scaring us?" Qian Xiulan looked very scared and kept patting her chest with her hand, "Auntie is timid, don't make up stories to scare Auntie..."

"What I said is true," Niu Shun pointed to the other side, "They saw it too!"

The one he pointed at was the Yang family who followed the sound last night and witnessed everything.

"Is there really a ghost?" Qian Xiulan walked anxiously to the Yang family camp headed by Yang Jie and asked worriedly.

"Yang Lian!" The bookboy reported to him after he came back. Yang Jie didn't know whether he should believe it or not, but he did hear the voice clearly.

Yang Lian, the bookboy transformed by Jia Zhengjin, took a step forward, pretending to be frightened, and his voice trembled slightly: "Really! I heard a strange cry last night, and the young master asked me to take people to check it out. We found Niu Shun's door all the way and happened to find something guarding the door and calling. Before we went up, Niu Shun opened the door and roared, scaring the monster away..."

"It can't be a wild beast. It can't be seen clearly at night?" Niu Bao asked.

"It can't be a wild beast at all. Although I didn't see it clearly, the thing did disappear instantly, not by running." Niu Shun answered affirmatively.

"So scary..." Qian Xiulan turned around and held her husband's hand, "Why did such a monster appear in our village?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Da Liu quickly hugged his wife, "Our Niulan Village is blessed by our ancestors, and nothing will happen..."

"I think it's a bit strange." Niu Xi said, "Are there a lot of strange things in our village recently?"

"Why?" Because Niu Xi now follows Niu Shun to the mountains to "chop wood" every day, everyone has a better impression of him, and the tone of the village chief's speech is not as annoying as before.

"It's like this," Niu Xi thought for a while and said, "Actually, Shunzi and I went up the mountain to chop firewood, and we met a weasel halfway to ask for a title. Shunzi said it looked like a human, and the weasel left with satisfaction.

I felt it was weird at the time, and such a thing has never happened in our village... and then there was another strange thing calling at Shunzi's door last night..."

"Oh, that's right!" Qian Xiulan clapped her hands and pointed at Niu Xi and said, "Didn't you also meet immortals in the mountains and get elixirs? Otherwise, how could you cure my brother Bao's illness?"

"So, there have been a lot of strange things in our village recently..." The village chief was a little worried, and his eyes turned to the two cultural people at the scene-Wang Xu and Yang Jie, "Mr. Wang, Master Yang, what do you think about this matter?"

"This..." Wang Xu touched the goatee on his chin, " As the saying goes, a gentleman does not speak of strange things... But there have been a lot of strange things recently. Is there something strange? "

Yang Jie saw Wang Xu looking at him and thought for a while: "Speaking of which, the day before yesterday, my father and I both had our ancestors come to us in dreams and told us to go back to the old house in the village to study. I didn't expect these changes to happen. Could there be a connection?"

"Oh? Your Yang family's ancestors came to us in dreams?" Qian Xiulan came over in surprise and stared at Yang Jie and asked, "Is it true?"

"Absolutely true! My father and I both dreamed about it, otherwise we wouldn't have returned to the old house at this time." Yang Jie replied, "But the ancestors asked me to go back to the old house to concentrate on studying. What is the connection with these strange things?"

Qian Xiulan looked at Yang Jie carefully, and after a while she spoke: "Could it be that your ancestors didn't ask you to come back to study, but were reminding you of something?"

"Remind you of what?" Hearing this, Yang Jie looked at a loss.

"Xiu Lan, what do you mean by this?" The village chief asked curiously.

Qian Xiulan turned around and found that many villagers were looking at her, so she said, "This is too coincidental! Look, this ancestor Yang Jie came back to the village in a dream, and strange things appeared at Shunzi's door that night..."

"Aunt, you are being unkind, aren't you?" Yang Jie's face changed, "Do you suspect that this matter has something to do with me?"

"That's hard to say!" Qian Xiulan looked at him seriously, "Who asked you to come back at this time? Such a strange thing happened that night..."

"You need to talk nonsense, woman!" A close maid beside Yang Jie stood up angrily, "My young master has no idea, I heard that the sound affected my reading, so I asked Yang Lian to take people there!"

"That's right!" Yang Lian, the book boy transformed by Jia Zhengjin, stepped forward quickly, "The young master was also disturbed by the strange cry at night, so I went to investigate. Besides, other things happened before the young master came back, such as the immortal he met, and the weasel they met asking for a title."

"That makes sense!" The village chief said hurriedly, "Xiulan, the young master Yang just came back, it's just a coincidence! What we should consider now is how to deal with it. This is the first time our village has encountered such a strange thing, and we must pay attention to it!"

The villagers nodded one after another.

Suddenly someone shouted to Niu Xi: "Xizi, didn't you meet a immortal? In addition to the elixir that cured your father, didn't he teach you anything else?"

Niu Xi suddenly became nervous and shook his head hurriedly: "Where is there anything else? It's good enough to have the elixir!"

But I suddenly remembered Niu Shun's mother's dream and the maze treasure. Could it be that the maze is related to the strange events that happened recently?

Did Shunzi and I open the maze and release the monsters sealed inside? Otherwise, why did they all go to Shunzi?

Niu Shun looked at Niu Xi with doubt. He didn't know what Niu Xi was thinking, but it seemed to be related to him.

Was he worried about the maze?

He quickly blinked at Niu Xi, then shook his head, asking him not to tell anyone.

Niu Xi didn't understand what Niu Shun meant. The two of them exchanged glances, but couldn't reach a resonance.

Fortunately, Niu Shun didn't mention Niu Shun's mother's dream and the maze.

"It's really scary to think about it..." Qian Xiulan said, "Village Chief, you have to take care of it!"

The village chief thought that I can take care of other things, but how can I take care of this ghost?

So he turned his eyes to Wang Xu and Yang Jie, two scholars, for help.

Scholars know a lot and are calmer when encountering things. Maybe there is a way.

The villagers naturally followed the village chief and turned their eyes to the two scholars.

Feeling the pressure, Wang Xu and Yang Jie exchanged glances, approached and whispered a few words, and finally reached a consensus.

"Village chief, and everyone else!" Wang Xu said seriously, "This matter is too strange, and the book does not introduce how to deal with it. How about this, just go to the county to find a cultivator to come and take a look?"

"There is a Taoist temple in the county, you can go there to find someone." Yang Jie said.
