The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

"Whatever my mother wants to know, she will know it. But don't let her know that you didn't make a chair for her when you went to the mountain."

Yes, my second brother is right. That was when her legs and feet were still good. But now she lies on the kang all day and can’t go out. No one comes to visit her. How would she know about such things? Besides, she might not meet anyone even if she goes up the mountain.

I’ll see if I can find an opportunity tomorrow. If there’s a suitable opportunity, I’ll come again.

The two men gasped for breath at the foot of the mountain. They stood there for a while and prepared to go home.

The boss turned his head and saw that the fire was moving down the mountain. Could it be following him?

The second brother was about to move forward when he was pulled back by the eldest brother.

"Why are you pulling me?"

Really, you are using so much strength that your clothes are almost torn. Why don’t you use less strength? It turns out that if it’s not yours, it belongs to someone else, so you can just pull it hard. It doesn’t matter if it gets torn.

The boss pointed to a place and stammered, unable to speak.

The second brother thought that his eldest brother was really useless and must have been scared by something again.

Looking in the direction he pointed, the torch was actually moving down the mountain, apparently along the path the two had just taken.

Oh my God, could it be that I just said the wrong thing to my brother, did something wrong, and offended some unknown creature?

The two men stared at the fire that was getting closer and closer, and were so scared that they forgot to move.

Nier felt that the road was a little unclear and the flame was getting smaller and smaller. It should be that the oil was not enough. However, after finishing this difficult section of the mountain, it would be much easier when going down the mountain.

"Dad, I don't think this torch will last much longer."

The third brother also discovered this problem, and as long as it can hold on until it gets down the mountain, there will be no problem.

"It's okay. Daddy will definitely bring you home safely. Do you believe me?"

Ni'er hugged the third brother's neck. Her body temperature had been chilled by the whistling wind on the mountain just now, and now she felt much warmer lying on her father's back.

"Of course I believe it, haha, Daddy always keeps his word."

The flame gradually weakened, and finally flickered a few times before being completely extinguished.

The surroundings became dim, with only two or three stars in the sky blinking mischievously.

Fortunately, this place is not far from the foot of the mountain and there is no dense vegetation. The ground has been trampled by people going up and down the mountain, so it is much easier to walk on.

A cold wind blew, and the second brother hugged his arms and shivered.

"Brother, I don't know why I'm a little scared."

The eldest brother had the same feeling. Although nothing happened, he always felt something was wrong.

Suddenly I remembered a story I had heard someone tell before.

"Have you ever heard of this incident, second brother?"

The second child's mind was now filled with thoughts of going home, washing up, and sleeping. He didn't want to speak at all. The biting cold wind was blowing straight into his stomach, but chatting with the two of them could help dispel some of the fear, and he managed to continue the conversation.

"what's up?"

The eldest brother paused, then slowly said while thinking, "Legend has it that after a heavy rain, it is the best time for those lonely ghosts in the mountains to find a replacement."

"Generally, this kind of thing is done in the mountains. If it is not successful, they will keep following it. Those things are very persistent."

The eldest brother didn't pay attention to the expression and actions of his second brother. He didn't want to listen to such a story in such an environment at all. It was too immersive and it didn't feel very good.

He pulled the clothes a little tighter, and the cold mud stuck to his skin. He shivered and quickly took the clothes off. It would be better not to wear these clothes now.

"There are footprints and human scent on the trodden soil. They will follow those and find that person's home, and use magic to replace the person's core."

The second brother thought that his eldest brother had an extraordinary brain. Why did he have to talk about such things at this time, and describe them so vividly? He was really careless. This was not the time when he rolled down the mountain just now.

"Brother, please stop talking."

I really didn't want to listen anymore, so I quickly interrupted the topic. He was the one who scared me, so I had to teach him a lesson.

"So you said there are two of us, is it following you or me?"

The boss was speechless for a moment, and after a long while, he managed to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth, "That's not necessarily the case, what if it's a human?"

The second brother nodded and said, "That's true. Where do so many wandering ghosts come from?"

The eldest brother was getting more and more scared as he talked, but at the same time he felt a little happy and couldn't help but talk about it. But after hearing what the second brother said, the fear disappeared.

"That makes sense. If it was a human, the fire would not have gone out. If it really was that kind of creature, it would have been more restrained after coming down the mountain and done those shady things quietly."

The two men watched the fire moving towards the foot of the mountain without blinking, and they couldn't believe that it could be extinguished by such a coincidence.

The result became a truth.

When the eldest and second in command saw this scene, their scalps went numb and they broke out in cold sweats. How could the fire flash a few times and then disappear?

If it was a human, shouldn't they be adequately prepared? After all, they would have to go up the mountain to pick up the person. What if the fire was extinguished before the person was picked up?

And did he really follow me down the mountain just now? He was so blatant, he must be a skilled person.

The two were so scared that their legs were shaking and they turned around and ran home.

"Ah~ there's a ghost~"

The eldest brother regretted telling that story. If he had known this would happen, he would not have done it in the first place. He wanted to slap himself in the face, but it was too late.

"Don't follow me. Go find Lao Er, don't look for me."

The second brother snorted when he heard this. This was his own brother. He only thought about himself and never considered others. He would definitely pay the price when the time came.

"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't listen to him. Don't come to me. Go to him."

The eldest brother glanced at his second brother in panic. What should he do? He spoke out his true feelings. This stinky mouth is really bad.

"No, second brother, what I said just now was wrong. You are my biological brother. How could I let him take you away? I just slipped my tongue just now."

But I was thinking in my heart, I was just talking about it. If we want to catch someone, we should catch him. As a scapegoat, my second brother is more suitable.

After all, I am the eldest son in the family and will have to take on more responsibilities in the future. If he is really arrested, I will take good care of his younger siblings and three nephews for him.

The second brother sneered when he heard what his eldest brother said. What he said in a hurry was the truth, and all the talk about slip of the tongue was bullshit.

I can't wait to go home and grab that new door today.

Yes, this is a good opportunity. If successful, you don’t have to wait until the day to apply the talisman again. The sooner you use it, the sooner you can enjoy it.

"Brother, I am so sad. It turns out that you can abandon me no matter what danger I encounter. Are you really my brother?"

The second brother tried his best to make his voice sound aggrieved, to bring out the guilt in the eldest brother, even though there wasn't much in the first place, but a little bit would be enough.
