The president's wife with one child and five treasures is the favorite of the group

Looking at Mu Jingchen again, he didn't even change his reading posture.

Huangfu Liyue felt a little bored, and left the room slowly.

Downstairs, several people gathered at the door.

They were staring in the same direction, discussing something enthusiastically.

Huangfu Liyue gradually approached and followed their line of sight.

Not far ahead, there were two women standing at the door of the old woman's homestay.

They looked excited and cursed at the inside of the homestay.

"You old woman, you spend all day in the house chanting curses and worshiping ghosts, are you cursing the people in our town?"

"The neighbors in the neighborhood have seen it. Those few missing travelers have come to live with you, and then disappeared inexplicably. Did you use some kind of witchcraft to harm them?"

The old lady didn't speak, she quietly looked at the strange Buddha statue in front of her, taking their accusations as air.

Furious, the two women walked into the house and smashed all the tables, chairs and benches inside.

The old lady still didn't respond, and didn't try to stop them, she just looked at the Buddha statue and muttered silently.

Seeing this, the two women quickly came to her, picked up the Buddha statue and threw it out.

"Smash this damn thing you worshiped, and see how you can do harm to others!"

The Buddha statue was broken in half, and the old woman finally had some reaction.

She clasped her hands together and bowed to the Buddha statue, as if she was begging the Buddha statue for forgiveness.

The two women were still angry, and stepped forward to kick the broken pieces of the Buddha statue far away.

"Old woman, let me warn you, if you pretend to be a ghost to harm others, we will not just smash the store!"

After saying this, the two women cursed a few more words, and then left angrily.

At this time, the people at the door of the hotel also discussed.

"Those missing passengers are not really related to that old woman, are they?"

"You don't know, this old woman was a famous witch in our town when she was young, she is very good at divination and exorcism, and the people in the town respect her.

But later, some people who lived in this homestay found that there were unclean things in it, and they spread it around, and no one dared to get close to her anymore.

The old woman has a weird temper, she never gets along with the neighbors, she stays in the house all day long to burn incense and pray to Buddha, even though there is no one in the house, she talks to herself from time to time, which frightens the passers-by.

People here are now walking around here when they pass by! "

"It's really evil. You can see that the thing she worshiped has a creepy face. Could it be something unclean?"

After such a discussion, everyone's eyes on the old woman changed.

"Didn't those two women just say that the neighbors around saw that the missing passengers lived in her house, but the police searched a while ago, but found nothing. Those few missing people seemed to have disappeared out of thin air!"

"It's too scary, let's stay away from her quickly, and don't let her do it to harm!"

Everyone was terrified and retreated one after another, leaving only Huangfu Liyue standing in place.

She doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, she just thinks they are scaring herself.

"Hey, girl, why are you still standing here, didn't you hear what they said just now?

Get in the house quickly, stay away from that old witch, don't get bad luck! "

Cheng Cui waved to her from inside the house, signaling her to enter the house.

She smiled indifferently.

"Aunt Cheng, I don't believe in ghosts and gods. Besides, that old lady is old. How can she harm those young and strong people?"

"Girl, you are too young. When the old lady was young, she was a sorceress who could psychic exorcise evil spirits. The missing pregnant women were probably taken by her and killed by her!"

Cheng Cui came to her and said in a low voice: "There is a legend in our place that a full-term fetus can make people live forever. Maybe that old woman just wanted to prolong her life and did such a wicked thing!"

After finishing speaking, she did not forget to remind: "You are pregnant, so stay away from her!"

"Ha ha……"

Huangfu Liyue smiled meaningfully.

She just finds these deceptive stories pedantic.

However, she also knew that people here were backward in thinking and believed in feudal superstitions, so there was no further argument.

"Aunt Cheng, thank you for your reminder, I will pay attention."

She looked at the old woman in front of her.

After the two women left, the old woman squatted on the ground to pick up the broken Buddha statues and put them together piece by piece with great care.

Huangfu Liyue raised her foot and walked towards the old woman.

"Hey! Girl..."

Cheng Cui still wanted to stop her, but Huangfu Liyue had already left.

Looking at Huangfu Liyue's back, she narrowed her eyes maliciously.

……

Huangfu Liyue came to the door of the homestay and helped the old lady pick up the fragments of the Buddha statue.

The old woman looked up and saw her, and suddenly stopped the movement of her hands, her cloudy eyes showed a trace of complexity.

"They are all afraid of me, but you are not afraid of me?"

Her dry hoarse voice was a little harsh, and it sounded very uncomfortable.

Huangfu Liyue did not answer immediately.

She returned the fragments she had picked up to the old woman, and said, "You have nothing to fear."

"hypocritical."

The old woman took the fragments, ignored her, and turned to enter the house.

Huangfu Liyue followed in.

The old lady stood on the altar, trying to put the Buddha statue together again, but failed every time.

Huangfu Liyue watched her movements, and said: "Before, I did think you were a little strange, so I moved to the hotel next door, but that doesn't mean I'm afraid."

The old woman turned a deaf ear and continued to play with the broken pieces of the Buddha statue.

Huangfu Liyue approached her.

"I can help you restore this Buddha statue."

The old woman paused, and looked at her with sunken eyes, which were a little softer than usual.

two hours later.

Huangfu Liyue restored the Buddha statue with an adhesive made of herbs.

Although it can't be completely restored, if you don't look carefully, you won't find that it was broken at all.

"Grandma, take a look."

The old woman glanced at the restored Buddha statue with satisfaction in her eyes, and sighed: "Girl, the merit is immeasurable, and there must be future blessings."

Huangfu Liyue only listened to it as a joke, and laughed it off.

The old lady put the Buddha statue back to its original place, lit three sticks of incense, and worshiped devoutly.

Although Huangfu Liyue was not superstitious, she respectfully bowed to her.

Seeing her actions, the old woman couldn't help feeling a little good in her heart.

"Everyone says I'm worshiping ghosts, so I stay away from them, but you girl is so bold that you dare to follow me to worship."

"If there are ghosts and gods in the world, they never hurt me. I should be in awe."

"You are transparent."

The old woman bent down to lift up the wooden chair and table, beckoned her to sit down, and muttered: "The most terrifying people in the world are not ghosts and gods, so there is no need to be afraid."

Huangfu Liyue sat down.

Looking at the old woman's old face, I couldn't help but think of the scene where the homestay was smashed up before.

"Grandma, the neighbors in the neighborhood are all prejudiced against you, why don't you explain a word?"
