marriage contract

Chu Junyi had a great time that night, with a slight smile on his face all the time.

When they returned to the inn, they saw their companions who had returned from a tour, and the two unconsciously let go of their holding hands.

When Second Master Zhuang saw the two of them in front of the inn, he felt a "thud" in his heart. He seemed to see that the two of them were still holding hands, but when they got closer, he realized that they were only a little closer.

This also relieved Zhuang Erye in his heart. No matter what they would choose in the end, he hoped that the two of them could think clearly before making a decision.

The few days of rest in Jinan Prefecture are rare and relaxing. They have also been out for a while. Everyone has different experiences and experiences. Finding a teahouse to communicate with each other and discuss with each other can promote relationships and deepen academic understanding at the same time.

Qiuwei was in August, and they had to rush back to the capital before Qiuwei. This time, not only Chu Junyi was going to end Qiuwei, but nearly half of the people in the same company were going to compete.

Zhuang Erye and Liu Siye have already won the exam, but they don't plan to participate in next year's Chunwei.

In order to return to the capital before August, he drove directly to the capital after leaving Jinan Mansion.

After entering the territory of Hejian Prefecture, I met a village on the road, got out of the car and asked for the way, knowing that the nearest town would still take half a day to walk.

After taking a look at the already dark sky, I finally decided to stay here overnight.

There is no inn here, and if you want to stay overnight, you can only live in a farmhouse.

There are nearly a hundred families in this village, and they choose a few families who are willing to let them stay, and give some money as a reward, and the place to stay will be available.

Not long after they packed their things, there was a commotion outside.

Because the selected families are very close, they all gather together when they hear any changes.

"What happened?" Zhuang Erye asked the landlord, Aunt Chen, who was beside him.

"I don't know either." Aunt Chen looked blank.

At this moment, a figure ran towards Aunt Chen at high speed, and stopped in front of Aunt Chen. It was a teenage boy. He took a few breaths, and then said intermittently: "Mother, mother...it's not good...it's a big deal Oh no……"

"What's wrong, look at the sweat on your head." Aunt Chen wanted to reprimand her son at first, but she felt a little distressed when she saw that he was sweating from running, so she wiped his sweat with her sleeve, turned around and said, " My Er Niu is a little irritable, please don't take offense."

Er Niu didn't care what other people would think, and grabbed Aunt Chen's sleeve, "Mother, it's not good! Hu Zi and Liu Zi are drowning!"

"What?! Drowning?!" Aunt Chen immediately became anxious when she heard Er Niu's words, and quickly asked, "Is there anything wrong? Can you be rescued?!"

"People have been rescued, and when I saw that they were all rescued, I hurried back to tell you, so I don't know how they are doing now." Er Niu said everything he knew like crackling beans.

"Take me to take a look!" Aunt Chen said anxiously.

Er Niu responded and trotted to lead the way.

"Master?" Second Master Zhuang turned to look at Mr. Nie.

Mr. Nie glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "Go and have a look."

Master Zhuang got the order and rushed out. Mr. Nie shook his head and sighed, and said to the others: "Let's go and have a look."

Along the way, I met many people who were going there, and they were not afraid of going in the wrong direction. After a while, Second Master Zhuang ran back and brought back the news he had inquired about.

It turned out that there was a pond not far away. It has been hot in recent days, and the children in the village like to swim in the pond to cool off.

It was the same today, a group of children were playing and playing in the water, and when it was getting dark, they went ashore one after another.

The last two children were Hu Zi and Liu Zi. When they were about to go ashore, they suddenly dived into the water. The children on the shore didn't know why, and after watching for a while, someone asked, "Are you drowning?"

It happened that the fathers who caught up with the children came to call them home, and when they heard that someone was drowning, they jumped down to save them, and then rescued the two drowning children.

The two children were still helping Zhuang Erye when he passed by, so I don't know what's going on now.

Mr. Nie nodded.

As they approached the pond, there were cries ahead, which soon turned into cursing.

"Master?" Zhuang Erye turned his head and asked.

"Go and have a look." Mr. Nie said.

The pond was already crowded with people. Standing on the outside and looking in, you could see two children on the ground in front of you through the gap. They were both in their teens, but one was lying down with a pale face, and the other was pale. Sitting pale, with horror in his expression.

Two women were standing aside, arguing and cursing each other, and behind them stood two men, both of whom were livid and glaring.

Zhuang Erye was confused and couldn't help asking the person standing in front of him.

Standing in front of them was a middle-aged woman, just at the age of gossip, and when she saw that they were foreigners, she gave a general account of the specific situation.

Huzi's surname is Wu, and the sixth's surname is Zhao. The relationship between the Wu family and the Zhao family has always been very bad.

On the contrary, the relationship between the younger generations in the family can be improved a little bit, even if they are not very dealt with, they will get together to play together from time to time.

As a result, the children of the two families drowned together, Hu Zi was rescued, but the six children were gone.

The Zhao family said that the six sons were killed by the tiger, and the Wu family said that the six sons drowned the tiger. Just now they were taking care of their own children, but now they are alive and dead, and the two families are on the same page.

"Why did they drown? Could it be because they pulled each other?" Zhuang Erye asked doubtfully.

"No." A child standing next to him shook his head, "Hu Zi and Liu Zi are so far away that it is impossible to meet them."

"Then what are they arguing about?" Zhuang Erye pointed to the few people who were about to go all out.

The child hesitated before saying: "The tiger son is closer to the shore, so he was rescued first, and the sixth son is farther away."

Everyone understands.

"Actually, Hu Zi is also very pitiful."

"Yeah, they were all scared and stupid."

"I don't know if the doctor can cure people."

"What's the matter? Isn't Huzi awake?" Second Master Zhuang asked curiously.

"Huzi just woke up and called the Zhao family's parents directly. Isn't that just being frightened?"

"And he also said that he is the sixth son."

"Isn't that right, let the doctor take a good look at it when you go back, and don't have any accidents with the people who have finally been rescued."

"There is such a thing?!" Zhuang Erye looked surprised.

The onlookers were talking.

Chu Junyi's body trembled, and he lowered his head and stared at the ground.

The quarrel between the previous two families gradually subsided, and even Li Zheng came out to mediate the conflict.

And Huzi also seemed to have come to his senses at this time, seeing the Zhao family couple wiping their tears and going to clean up the body of the sixth son, he showed an expression uglier than crying, and said in a hoarse voice: "Father, mother ! I'm really a six son!"

When the couple of the Zhao family heard what he said, they rushed to the Liangmen door with fire, and the wife of the Zhao family rushed forward, slapped the tiger to the ground with a slap on the head, and cursed: "It's all about you, the mourner!" Men Xing! How could you die if it wasn’t for saving your six sons first! You still have the face to say you are the six sons! Why would you live without the six sons!”

Seeing her son being beaten, the wife of the Wu family was furious, so she rushed up and slapped the wife of the Zhao family, saying, "Why did you beat him? Why did you beat him! That little animal of yours cares less about my son. What is it! If you dare to hit him, I will kill you!"

The two women pinched, and the men of the two families were not idle.

Huzi's father still felt sorry for his son at first, but when he thought of his son referring to the Zhao family as father and mother, his anger also rose. He grabbed Huzi by the collar and picked him up, cursing angrily: "You give me a father and a mother!" See clearly, who is your father and mother! After raising you for more than ten years, to call someone else's father, has your conscience been eaten by dogs?!"

"Even my own son despises you, what's the point of your life! Since Huzi is willing to be our Zhao family's son, then I will reluctantly accept it, and it happens that the family still lacks a job!" The sixth father gritted his teeth. sneered.

Hu Zi's father was furious, he let go of Hu Zi's collar and was about to beat Liu Zi's father.

Li Zheng quickly directed several people to pull the four people away.

Chu Junyi raised his head, and happened to see Huzi sitting on the ground. His clothes were wet, his face was still covered with mud, and his tears kept streaming, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Are you okay?" Gu Chengzhi asked softly, he could feel Chu Junyi's nervousness, his body was tensing unconsciously.

Chu Junyi didn't speak, just shook his head and glanced at him, then turned his gaze back to Huzi.

Gu Chengzhi frowned, and the emotions in Chu Junyi's eyes were too complicated to tell what he was thinking.

Mr. Nie sighed, shook his head, and started to walk back.

The rest of the people saw that Mr. Nie was about to go back, so naturally they also left together.

When Chu Junyi left, he looked back. Huzi sat on the ground blankly, staring at the two families in a daze.

Lowering his eyes for a moment of silence, Chu Junyi turned around and said to Gu Chengzhi who was waiting at the side: "Let's go."

Gu Chengzhi frowned again, his footsteps paused but he followed.

Back to the place where they lived temporarily, the landlord didn't come back, but Er Niu followed them into the house.

"My father and mother have gone to Huzi's house, and they won't be back until later." Er Niu came here to pass on the message, and asked them to go to a neighbor's house for dinner.

The problem of dinner was not difficult to solve. After dinner, the landlord and his wife came back.

Mr. Nie asked about the situation. The landlord couple and the Wu family and the Zhao family are all relatives. They stayed here overnight, so it's better to pretend not to know.

Aunt Chen wiped her tears when she mentioned this matter, and when she saw someone asking about it, she said it like pouring out bitter water.

Huzi was brought back to the Wu family, but he still refused to call his parents, and insisted that he was the sixth son, and also talked about many things about the Zhao family.

Some people said that Huzi was bewitched by evil spirits, and others said that he was found by something...

Anyway, they discussed looking for the witch to have a look tomorrow, if it doesn't look right...

"What if it doesn't look right?!" Chu Junyi asked quickly.

Gu Chengzhi tilted his head and glanced at him.

Aunt Chen just wiped her tears and didn't speak.

Chu Junyi's heart was cold.

At night, all the people who had driven for a day went to sleep exhausted. The farmhouse slept on a kang, and it would not be too crowded for a few people to squeeze into a big kang.

Chu Junyi was lying facing the wall, and Gu Chengzhi was next to him.

"Can't sleep?" Gu Chengzhi asked softly.

"En..." Chu Junyi replied in a muffled voice.

"What's wrong with you today?" It's always been wrong over the pond, and even more so after returning.

Chu Junyi was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned over.

Gu Chengzhi watched quietly, he was waiting for Chu Junyi to speak.

Chu Junyi clenched his fists tightly and looked straight into Gu Chengzhi's eyes.

"Gu Chengzhi." Chu Junyi called him.

"En." Gu Chengzhi responded.

"Do you believe in moving souls...or reincarnation?" Chu Junyi was worried.

Gu Chengzhi's expression was very surprised, he didn't expect Chu Junyi to ask him this question, he thought for a moment before saying: "I don't believe it."

"Oh..." Chu Junyi lowered his eyes, he guessed that Gu Chengzhi would say this, but he still couldn't stop the disappointment in his heart.

"Do you believe it?" Gu Chengzhi almost understood why he was wrong when he heard him ask this question, "It's better not to pay too much attention to this kind of thing."

"En..." Chu Junyi pursed his lips and turned to face the wall again.

Gu Chengzhi looked at him helplessly.

In the early morning of the next day, it was still daylight, and Chu Junyi didn't sleep well all night, as if the sky had already dawned as soon as he closed his eyes, and his heart was heavy, but he didn't intend to continue to sleep.

He got up and put on his coat, tidied his hair and went out lightly.

Aunt Chen mentioned last night that Huzi was sent to a thatched hut at the east end of the village, where she would do the rituals directly after inviting the witch in the morning.

Chu Junyi identified the direction and walked towards the east of the village. At the end, he could see a thatched hut, which was very dilapidated and not as big as the ear room at home.

When seeing this hut, Chu Junyi's footsteps gradually slowed down, and finally stopped a few meters away from the hut.

This is where the child spent the night, sent there just after drowning, when he was full of fear and despair...

Chu Junyi only felt uncomfortable in his heart, clenched his sleeves with the hands hanging by his side, and then stepped forward to push open the door that could barely be called a door.

When Huzi heard someone coming in, he quickly looked up, and when he saw that it was a stranger, he lowered his head in disappointment.

Chu Junyi saw that Huzi's eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, he probably didn't close his eyes all night.

The two just stood there and sat there, neither of them spoke.

Chu Junyi sighed softly, squatted down and said softly, "Six."

As soon as Hu Zi heard these two words, he immediately raised his head, his blue and chapped lips kept trembling, and he wanted to speak but his throat seemed to be blocked by something.

Chu Junyi felt sad, but he didn't come here to reminisce with Hu Zi, there are some things Hu Zi needs to know, and then he has to make his own decisions.

"Do you know why you were sent here?" Seeing his confused face, Chu Junyi pursed his lips and said, "If you don't know, then listen to me, they went to find the witch...you know what I mean ?"

Huzi's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"What do you think?" Chu Junyi asked softly.

"They don't believe me, they don't believe me...how can this be...they, they..." Hu Zi's voice was dry and hoarse, which made Chu Junyi's eyes water.

"They don't believe you." Chu Junyi's voice was unusually calm, and he added: "Not many people would believe such a thing."

"Do you believe?"

"I believe it, but others don't."

Chu Junyi sighed again, then stood up and said, "How to choose, you can decide for yourself." After speaking, he turned and left.

Because of ignorance and ignorance, it is not only ghosts and gods that make people fear, but more is the unknown.

How many people die every year because of being branded as evil spirits, and what is even more frightening is that the relatives of those who died as evil spirits will feel lucky because of this.

He couldn't bear it, but there was nothing he could do.

As soon as he opened the door, before Chu Junyi stepped out of the hut, he froze in place as soon as he raised his head.
