Chapter 1818
A Different Era
When Cheng Xinhua was a child, he learned kung fu from Cheng Yuan and calligraphy from Shan Wencheng.
Cheng Xinhua liked the two of them very much.
Actually, these two people are from his grandfather's generation, but they look young, so he calls them uncles.
When they first heard the news of the two people's deaths, not only he, but even Chengxing couldn't believe it.
The two of them are much stronger than many people, how could they possibly not be able to withstand the hardships of the countryside?
Both of them were intelligent and made arrangements as soon as the situation started to become chaotic.
On the surface, it was a demotion, but in reality, they went to a remote mountain village to seek refuge.
But man proposes, God disposes; they were caught in a landslide and died.
Cheng Xinhua sighed deeply.
Cheng Xinhua inquired with Liu Tong about the two men's activities in the village. He learned that they often caught prey in the mountains, which not only improved the lives of the people in the cowshed but also allowed the villagers to have a treat, so that the villagers would no longer make things difficult for the people in the cowshed.
Cheng Xinhua sighed even more: "How could such an accident have happened?"
Liu Dong: Perhaps you'll have a chance to see them again! After all, those two are doing just fine.
The nanny prepared several elaborate dishes and served them on the table just as Chengxing and his wife returned home from get off work.
Cheng's wife also thought that Liu Tong was a relative from Chengxing's hometown, and treated Liu Tong with the attitude of a junior.
Knowing that Liu Dong had been admitted to Tsinghua University, I felt even closer to him.
After the meal, Chengxing took Liu Tong to the study.
Liu Tong spoke up: "Is there something you need my help with?"
Chengxing: "Yes..."
Chengxing has an old friend named Zhang Shan, who has a son and a daughter.
Because of what happened during those ten years, Zhang Shan was sent to the countryside, and his children were also implicated and went to the countryside as educated youth.
After returning to work, Zhang Shan called his son and daughter back to his side.
The son came back with his wife and grandson, while the daughter came back alone.
She divorced her husband from the countryside.
Zhang Shan then thought of finding her another man.
Zhang Hongmei agreed, but after going on one blind date, she went a little crazy.
She said that a child was crying in her ear, she couldn't sleep at night, and felt as if her body was in an ice cave.
Even though the heating was on full blast in the room, she was still shivering from the cold.
Zhang Shan sought medical help for her, but no illness was found.
Having experienced ghostly events, Chengxing considered one possibility.
He told Zhang Shan his guess.
Zhang Shan also believed in these things.
Zhang Shan: "Have you ever encountered something like this? How did you resolve it?"
Chengxing: "I met a truly masterful person."
Zhang Shan: "Where is the expert? I will go and invite him myself."
Cheng Xing: "The expert is not in the capital. However, he has been admitted to a university in the capital and will be coming to the capital in a few days."
Zhang Shan: "Going to university? How old is he?"
Cheng Xing: "Nineteen years old. What's with that expression? Don't look down on him just because he's young. He's a real expert."
She then told Zhang Shan about her father and grandmother.
Zhang Shan: "When he comes to the capital, please ask him to come and help Hongmei. If he can solve the problem, I will definitely reward him handsomely."
Liu Dong stood up: "Let's go."
Chengxing quickly realized what was happening and took Liu Tong to Zhang Shan's house.
Their home is in the same neighborhood as Zhang Shan's, less than 200 meters away, just a few steps away.
Before coming, Chengxing called Zhang Shan.
Zhang Shan was already waiting at the gate.
Although he knew the master was young, Zhang Shan was still taken aback when he saw Liu Dong.
Fortunately, he quickly recovered and warmly shook hands with Liu Tong, leading her inside. Liu Tong said, "Comrade Zhang, let me meet your daughter first."
"Oh, okay, okay."
Zhang Shan led Liu Dong upstairs and opened the door to a room.
Liu Tong glanced inside and sighed.
Zhang Shan asked nervously, "Master, what's wrong? Is the matter difficult to handle?"
Liu Tong: "It is indeed difficult."
He took out two yellow talismans and handed them to Zhang Shan: "You use one, and give the other to your daughter. Stick the talismans on your foreheads. What you do after that is up to you."
After saying that, he turned and went downstairs.
Zhang Shan: "??"
Zhang Shan was puzzled, so he followed Liu Dong's instructions and stuck a yellow talisman on his forehead.
He looked into the room and gasped.
Ghosts! Ghosts really exist!
His daughter was being haunted by a ghost.
Zhang Shan desperately wanted to call out to Liu Qiu so that she could come and exorcise the ghost.
But Liu Dong just told them to handle it themselves, which clearly means she doesn't want to get involved.
So how are they going to deal with the ghosts?
Then, he heard the little girl ghost, who was only four or five years old, call Zhang Hongmei "Mom".
Meanwhile, the male ghost kept questioning Zhang Hongmei about why she had abandoned them.
Zhang Shan gasped.
The two ghosts were clearly Zhang Hongmei's ex-husband and daughter.
What did Zhang Hongmei do?
Why did her ex-husband and daughter die?
Zhang Shan understood why Liu Dong had left; he simply couldn't get involved in such family matters.
Zhang Shan walked over and said, "Good child, I am your maternal grandfather."
He then said to the male ghost, "I am Zhang Hongmei's father. Can you tell me what she did?"
Zhang Hongmei screamed, "Dad, who are you talking to?"
Zhang Shan sighed and stuck another yellow talisman on Zhang Hongmei's forehead.
Zhang Hongmei thus also saw the little girl and the male ghost.
Zhang Hongmei screamed again: "Why have you come to Beijing? Du Laosi, I've already divorced you. Why are you still looking for me?"
Old Du was furious: "How dare you say that? If it weren't for you, how could my daughter and I have died?"
"What? You're dead?" Zhang Hongmei reached out to hug the little girl, only to find her hand passing right through the girl's body.
Zhang Hongmei was shocked. She had feelings for her daughter, which made her forget her fear.
"My dear, my dear... how could this happen?"
“It’s all your fault,” Du Laosi said. “You look down on me, a country bumpkin, and you divorced me, which I accepted. But why did you abandon Nannan? She is your own flesh and blood. Nannan didn’t see you and cried all night. She ran out of the house when I wasn’t looking. She’s going to look for you.”
"I went out to look for her, and then, and then..."
As it was too dark, he couldn't see the road clearly and fell into the reservoir with his child, and the two of them drowned.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hongmei burst into tears.
Zhang Shan also fell silent.
It was his daughter who wronged both of them.
After a while, Du Laosi picked up the little girl and said to the two of them, "Don't worry that we'll bother you. I just brought Nannan to see you and fulfill her wish. Now that her wish has been fulfilled, we'll leave now."
After saying that, the two figures disappeared.
The chill in the room disappeared, and the warmth from the heating made the two of them sweat.
Zhang Hongmei burst into tears again.
Zhang Shan sighed, didn't try to persuade her, and turned to go downstairs.
"Master, thank you so much this time!" (End of Chapter)
