The more I think about it, the more I feel like my brain is running out of ideas.
It's like every time I want to know the answer, a layer of fog appears in front of me and tells me that it is not the real answer.
In the end, I just stopped thinking about it, closed my eyes, leaned back on the seat and rested my mind.
In fact, after what happened in Fengling Village, I had already put aside my mind. I couldn't go back to Niang'er Village, and I had to fulfill the three-year agreement. No matter what, I couldn't live up to the woman who made me dream.
So no matter what the answer is.
No matter what I will face when I come out this time.
I just need to know that I have to go on and find a way to get what I want, that's enough.
As long as you don't die, it's not a big problem.
Really dead.
It can also be regarded as relief.
After I figured it out, I immediately felt much more relaxed.
I leaned on my seat and closed my eyes to rest my mind from the beginning, and then fell into a deep sleep.
I was indeed very tired. I was always on tenterhooks in Fengling Village. Although I took a break, my spirit was always tense.
Only now can I truly breathe a sigh of relief.
But what I didn't expect was that it was just the beginning of everything when I got into Liu Shan's car and left Fengling Village.
It was already late at night when I woke up.
Tie GeDa also stopped at a place called Tianmen Village.
Liu Shanzheng looked depressed and looked very anxious.
I asked him what was wrong, and he told me that the car suddenly stalled when we drove here and could not light up no matter what. He also said that he could only stay in Tianmen Village for one night.
I could see that Liu Shan was very anxious, but it was obvious that he had nothing to do.
I don’t quite understand what Liu Shan said. After all, I’ve seen something like an iron lump a few times, but I’m not sure what it is. I know that this iron lump is more powerful than a sedan chair, and it only needs one person.
Just be able to use it, that's all.
Liu Shan and I went to bed together, because it was already late at night. Although this place called Tianmen Village is not a dry village like Niang'er Village in my eyes, nor is it as deserted as Fengling Village, the lights can be seen at a glance
It was bright, but there was no one outside the village.
Liu Shan said that Tianmen Village is a relatively large village nearby, and you can go to the city after passing Tianmen Village.
Because the three villages of Tianmen Village, Fenling Village and Niang'er Village are relatively close to each other, they once had a unified name, Fengmenling.
When I heard Liu Shan say this, my heart that had already relaxed suddenly lifted up, and a thought also popped up in my mind.
Is it really a coincidence that the iron knot is broken?
While I was thinking, Liu Shan had already walked into Tianmen Village.
Tianmen Village is indeed much larger than Fenling Village and Niang'er Village, and even the houses look a little different, not deserted at all, which made me feel a little relieved about my uneasiness.
After we walked for a while, Liu Shan found a house with a light on and knocked on the door.
After knocking for a while, no one came to open the door. However, Liu Shan did not give up. He knocked on several doors in succession, but strangely, no one recalled it.
This made Liu Shan a little depressed.
"It's strange, why no one wants to open the door."
"We are not bad people."
I wasn't too surprised by this, or because of what happened in Fengling Village, I subconsciously felt that these people should not open the door. Who knows who is outside?
Thinking about it, I smiled and said, "Otherwise, just rest outside for the night."
Liu Shan shook his head and said, "How can that be done?"
"You came with me, and I can't let you suffer in any way."
"There is just no hotel here, otherwise there would be no need to go to such trouble."
Liu Shan sighed as he spoke, looked around, and then said, "Why don't you wait here for a while, and I'll ask again?"
I was about to refuse, but Liu Shan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked quickly behind me. I turned around and noticed that there was a middle-aged man behind me holding a bag of things and walking hurriedly.
Came over.
Liu Shan saw him exactly.
"Brother, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
Liu Shan walked up and said hello with a smile.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly when he saw Liu Shan, but he still stopped, but his tone was not very good.
"If you don't stay at home at night, why would you go out for a walk?"
Liu Shan was obviously stunned for a moment, but he still smiled with an embarrassed look on his face: "That's it, the car suddenly broke down when we were passing by here. There is no way to repair it in the middle of the night, and we have no place to stay."
"Do you think it can be convenient?"
But the middle-aged man waved his hand and refused without thinking: "It doesn't matter if it's other times."
"But not today."
Liu Shan was puzzled and asked: "Is there any significance to this?"
The middle-aged man sighed and said, "My father just left today. According to our custom here, we need to make way tonight."
Liu Shan still doesn't quite understand.
The middle-aged man explained: "Don't you see that everyone is staying at home?"
"I just came out to buy some candle paper money, otherwise you wouldn't be able to touch me."
Liu Shan was stunned for a moment, and then as if he came to his senses, he took out a few pieces of paper and handed them over, "Brother, please forgive me."
"We have no choice but to apologize for any offence."
"Consider this money as a gift to you."
"We're leaving now."
The middle-aged man took the pieces of paper, looked at Liu Shan and me again, then sighed and said, "Forget it."
"You don't have anywhere to go this late at night. Wandering outside will disturb my father's journey."
"It will be troublesome if something goes wrong."
"Well, if you don't mind, you can stay at my place for one night."
"I'm going to keep vigil tonight. If you have any taboos..."
Liu Shan quickly said: "There is no taboo, there is no taboo."
"We promise not to cause any trouble!"
Seeing Liu Shan say this, the middle-aged man nodded.
I was a little surprised when I saw this scene.
All it takes is a few pieces of paper?
I also saw that Liu Shan seemed to have some abilities. Anyway, if I was rejected, he would definitely leave directly.
But I didn't ask any more questions.
For me, all I need to know is that I have a place to stay tonight, even though it's not a big deal for me to make do in that iron hole for one night.
Not long after, Liu Shan and I followed the middle-aged man to his home.
I also learned his name on the way. He said his name was Zhao Erhu and we could just call him Uncle Hu.
