On the way back, Shen Rong and Changsheng still took the shortcut.

After returning home, Shen Rong helped Changsheng wash his face. Only when they lay down in bed did Shen Rong say to Changsheng, "Changsheng, you can't tell anyone about what happened today, understand?"

"Oh." Changsheng said in a muffled voice while lying on the inside.

He felt that he had been deceived by Sanniang, and it was not fun to scare people.

As for not being able to tell this to anyone else, Changsheng felt that Sanniang had said this enough and he had gotten used to it.

After running around at night, Shen Rong couldn't fall asleep for some reason. She turned over and looked at Changsheng, "Changsheng, are you afraid of ghosts?"

Changsheng didn't answer her immediately, but thought for a while before asking, "What is a ghost?"

Shen Rong paused. To be honest, if Changsheng hadn't been with her tonight, she would have been a little scared.

How could she, a person who had died once, not respect ghosts and gods?

Thinking of Changsheng's childlike cognition, Shen Rong was worried that if she explained, Changsheng would be frightened. However, she couldn't bear to lie to him, so she could only say, "Changsheng, ghosts are transformed from people we miss but can't see."

Changsheng was silent for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking about, and said in a low voice: "Changsheng... I'm not afraid... of mother..."

Shen Rong felt a pang in her heart. She remembered her mother telling her that when Changsheng returned to Taohua Village, he was only two years older than her. She had just been born at that time. Changsheng had lost his mother since then and grew up with his sixth grandfather and sixth grandmother.

She reached out and patted Changsheng on the back, "Well, but your mother has always been protecting you! You just can't see it."

Changsheng heard her say that and subconsciously moved closer to Shen Rong, "Really?"

"Well, really."

The two were so close that Shen Rong could even see his dark eyes.

The other person's scorching breath enveloped her, and she could even feel the heat in the quilt next to her. Subconsciously, she wanted to get closer. When winter came, her hands and feet were cold when she slept at night, and the quilt was cold when she slept all night.

Shen Rong always envied Changsheng's warm bed.

But she was too embarrassed to ask Changsheng to sleep in the same bed with her, so every night after falling asleep, she would wrap herself in the quilt and squeeze in subconsciously.

Every time she woke up in the morning, Changsheng would look at her with an accusing look on his face.

Shen Rong's thoughts drifted away gradually, and sleepiness slowly came over her. She didn't hear clearly what Changsheng said. Before she fell asleep, Shen Rong recalled what happened tonight. She wondered if Shen Yuan dared to dig the grave again?

It would be better to let Xiao Zhuzi keep an eye on Shen Yuan during this period of time.

If she still has that idea, Shen Rong doesn't mind scaring her a few more times.

On this side, Shen Yuan ran back home in one breath.

She didn't dare wake Liu up and tiptoed into the house.

She wanted to take off her wet clothes, but her hands and feet were too weak to move.

Shen Yuan had no choice but to lie down on the bed with his clothes on. Only then did he realize that his feet were aching slightly, his head was a little dizzy, and cold sweat was pouring out of his body.

She really encountered a ghost!

Shen Yuan had nightmares all night, and his dreams were filled with the hanged ghost who was demanding his life.

The next morning, when she woke up, she found herself sick.

Liu did not see Shen Yuan get up to make breakfast early in the morning. When she entered the house, she found her daughter-in-law unconscious with a fever.

Liu didn't care about Shen Yuan's life or death at all. After closing the door, she made some food and went out to visit friends.

As for whether to hire a doctor for Shen Yuan, Liu never thought about it. Doesn't it cost money to see a doctor? Just wait and see.

As soon as I went out, I found that everyone in the village was looking for something.

"Sister Wang, what happened?" Liu pulled someone over and asked.

"Oh! My sister Wu is missing!" The woman called Mrs. Wang slapped her thigh and said with a worried look on her face.

Wu is missing?

How did he suddenly disappear? Before Liu could ask, several villagers came running over from the west of the village, "We found him! We found him!"

After a while, several men came over carrying a wooden board. On the board was Wu, who had disappeared overnight.

Mrs. Wu had been freezing outside all night, her face had turned blue and white, her exposed feet had turned black, she was barely hanging on to her last breath, and she was mumbling nonsense!

Liu felt it was unlucky, but she still stayed to watch the fun for a while.

Liu got some new gossip and felt very uncomfortable, so she went into Shen Yuan's room.

"Gu Shen, are you feeling better? I have something to tell you. Wu was dragged to the west of the village by a ghost last night and was harmed. She was just found back now and is almost dying..."

As soon as Liu entered the room, she started talking saliva flying, without noticing that Shen Yuan's face was pale.

When Shen Yuan heard Liu say that Wu was dragged by a ghost to the foot of the mountain west of the village and harmed, she couldn't recover for a long time.

Wu was dragged by the ghost to the foot of the mountain west of the village...

Could it be that the scream last night was from Wu?

Could it be that she was harmed by that hanged ghost?

Shen Yuan thought of the scene she saw last night, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, and her dizziness became even more severe.

Shen Rong heard the news early in the morning that Mrs. Wu had encountered a ghost last night.

The messenger's words were very convincing.

It was said that when Wu got up at night, she was dragged by a ghost to the west side of the village. She stayed at the foot of the mountain all night and was tormented by the ghost all night. When she was found, she was only breathing her last.

Shen Rong raised her eyebrows as she thought of the scream last night.

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

If that voice was indeed Wu's, why was she going to the west of the village so late?

And secretly followed Shen Yuan.

Unfortunately, no one knows how Wu got there in the middle of the night.

When Wu was found, she was no longer conscious. She was startled and kept shouting "ghost, ghost!", which frightened Gu Laogen and her children terribly.

The person left within two days.

Shen Yuan's illness had just gotten a little better, but then he heard the news that Wu had died, and he was frightened and fell ill again.

This was indeed a shameful thing that she couldn't do. Shen Yuan swore to herself that even if she died of poverty in this life, she would never dig a grave again!

When Shen Rong heard that Shen Yuan was sick, she thought about it and realized that Shen Yuan was frightened.

She took a packet of medicine for colds and went to see Shen Yuan.

Shen Rong was shocked when she saw Shen Yuan.

Obviously, Shen Yuan was very frightened this time and he was seriously ill. He was so thin that only a bag of bones was left.

First she broke her leg, then she fell ill, and her appearance changed from a bean sprout to a shriveled vegetable.

Her face was dry and yellow, and she didn't have any girlish vitality at all.

An old cotton coat hung empty on his body.

When Shen Rong saw Shen Yuan like this, she remembered the tragic ending of her previous life and felt a little happy in her heart.

She knows Gu Zhaoming.

Gu Zhaoming was a good-looking person. In her previous life, when she was still beautiful, he lit the lamp and spent countless nights with her. When their love was deep, he held her face and kissed her, obsessed and devout.

In this life, Shen Yuan still has an ordinary face, and he looks sick because of illness.

It was only a matter of time before she was disliked by Gu Zhaoming.

She put down the medicine and talked to Shen Yuan for a while.

When Shen Yuan was speaking, he looked at Shen Rong's rosy face and felt extremely jealous!

How come Shen Rong is getting prettier and prettier?

She didn't need to look in the mirror to know that she looked like a clown when sitting next to Shen Rong. How annoying!
