Chapter 6, there are others.
This statement caused a solemn expression to settle upon the faces of all present.
Upon seeing this, my uncle asked on my behalf, "Master Duan, does this not count as a violation of your instructions?"
I see that the child's grandfather has returned, possibly not to harm the child, but perhaps to protect the child
My mother also said, "Yes, we get along very well with our neighbors."
However, the pressing matter is not to lament these issues, but to consider how to resolve them
Uncle asked anxiously.
Is there really no other way
I briefly recounted the things I had experienced, but after listening, the official shook his head and said, "Is it not these?"
Duan Gong pinched his fingers, yet did not rush to speak
I do not know if any ghostly entities will come knocking tonight, I can only wait for now, I took a deep breath, feeling extremely anxious inside
I approached, and my parents came forward to ask me how things were going
"Duan Gong, what do your words mean? Who else wants to harm my son?" my father asked with a concerned expression.
I was young and anxious, and my personality was quite straightforward, so I directly asked: "Duke, just tell me directly, who is our family's enemy?"
Master Duan continued to speak
After Master Duan finished speaking, he did not delay and stepped out, leaving my home
My father spoke in a fierce manner
It now appears that those following you are the enemies of your family; after your grandfather's burial, they will not spare your grandfather either
However, my uncle was still here, looking at me with concern, and he even reached out to pat my shoulder, reassuring me not to be afraid. I nodded and said, "Okay"
Indeed, how could my father bear to harm his own grandson
Currently, there are individuals plotting against us, seeking to sever the lineage of our family
However, there is currently no way to do so. Duan Gong told me: "I will go back first tonight. If the light is not off, you do not need to look for me. If it is off, remember to find me."
Uncle opposed, saying: "It is impossible. Our family has always been very simple in the village, and we have a good relationship with the people in the village, basically without any conflicts."
The gentleman continued to speak
Duan Gong spoke leisurely, and my entire family was instantly frightened to the point of turning pale.
Uncle then asked, "What is that?"
It is now around eleven o'clock, and my uncle has just seen off the elder. My mother, having somehow procured a willow branch, presented it to me, instructing me to bathe with the willow branch to dispel bad luck
The master asked my father to remain calm for a moment. After a brief calculation, his gaze returned to me, and he suddenly asked, "Child, have you offended anyone recently?"
The heart and mind feel as if they are suspended by a breath, tightly tensed and not daring to relax in the slightest
Duan Gong's expression was tightly furrowed; seeing such an expression, one could tell that something bad was about to happen
It is of no use for me to stay now, I must go back to prepare some things
After waiting for a short while, the sound of arguing grew closer. Suddenly, in the next moment, a loud bang echoed from outside my bedroom door
The sound was very loud, and there were several bangs. Just as I was about to ask who it was, a familiar voice came from outside the door
Just as I was about to fall asleep, a voice suddenly echoed in my ears, and I couldn't help but be lost in thought for a few seconds upon hearing it
It is calculated that there is a line of death energy obstructing his fate palace. It now appears that the one who desires the child's life is not just his grandfather.
However, Duan Gong's expression still did not relax, and he continued to ask me, "Is there really none?"
After I finished speaking, however, Mr. Duan did not respond immediately; instead, he remained silent
My father became anxious and said: "Which son of a turtle dares to harm my son? I will definitely take his life"
There was indeed one occasion when I looked back, which was after we had reburied my grandfather properly.
Uncle expressed a sentiment
After just a few exchanges of dialogue, the sound of an argument came from outside the door
As soon as the words of the official were spoken, they immediately attracted the attention of the crowd towards me, and the expression of concern reappeared on my parents' faces
As soon as my second and third uncles' families heard that I was in trouble, they were no longer willing to stay here any longer. They exchanged greetings and hurriedly left.
It seems that someone is having a conversation
At this moment, I also noticed the expression on Duan Gong's face, and suddenly an ominous premonition arose in my heart
My parents breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and my uncle's previously tense expression also softened a bit. However, at that moment, the elder approached and said, "Child, did you not listen to my words and turn back?"
After graduating from middle school, I followed my uncle to slaughter pigs and also sold pork. Over the years, I have been living outside. It is absolutely impossible to say that I have never had any disputes with others while out there, but if one were to say that there are deep-seated grudges or enmities, that would basically be impossible.
I listened to her words, bathing with willow branches, and at night I lit an oil lamp under the bed. However, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
I heard the sound of an argument, and immediately felt that something was amiss; it seems that trouble is brewing
If the child has not offended anyone, then it must be your Chen family that has offended someone
In the tone of Dongguan, it is evident that she does not believe it
After listening, Duan Gong seemed somewhat unconvinced and calmly said: "Think carefully, why did the child's grandfather suddenly feel disappointed? Is it truly because of the child's impetuousness?"
It seems that nothing will go wrong, and I should be able to have a good night's sleep tonight
The repeated questioning by the elder made me begin to doubt myself, but I remember that while carrying my grandfather's body to the grave mound, I truly did not look back
Duan Gong said to me, "If I had known, I would have directly helped you solve it."
Duan Gong stared at me and said, "Tonight, when you go to sleep, place an oil lamp under your bed. If the oil lamp survives the night without incident, it means you are temporarily safe. If it does not, it indicates that you are in serious trouble."
Even to the point of being very afraid
After some contemplation, I have decided to recount the matter once again in this manner
Just by listening to his words, my heart couldn't help but start beating "thump". I admit that I am truly beginning to feel nervous now
When Lord Duan suddenly uttered these words, it was as if everyone had awakened from a dream.
"Duan Gong, are you not staying?" my mother suddenly asked with concern
I glanced at the current time; it is already quite late
I truthfully recounted the general situation to them
I found myself in a state of distraction and did not respond immediately. After a while, I finally spoke up and said: "No."
The oil lamp remained lit even after midnight, which filled my heart with great joy. Five more minutes passed, and it was still the same.
I took out my phone to check the time, and at that moment, I also noticed a glimmer of light seeping through the gaps in the floorboards below. Feeling this ray of light, the tension in my heart instantly eased a little.
