"Uncle?" Zuo Chen blinked and answered the call.
"Hello, Chen Wazi, where are you?"
On the other side, First Uncle's tired voice could be heard. It was obvious that he had been busy all day.
"Oh, I'm on the street. I'll go back after buying some groceries.”Zuo Chen replied. It was almost dusk, and there were not many people buying groceries. Most of them bought groceries early in the morning, and very few bought groceries at night.
However, Zuo Chen thought that since he was out, he might as well buy some vegetables and meat to cook a good meal for his uncle.
Meat was cheap now, not as expensive as it would be after the swine fever ten years later.
Ordinary pork was seven to eight yuan per catty, and the slightly better half fat and lean pork was only eleven yuan.
As for the pork belly, it was 13 RMB per 500 grams!
Zuo Chen didn't hesitate and bought two catties. He didn't even bother to haggle over the price.
Compared to the prices ten years later, the current prices were really cheap.
Five thousand yuan was equivalent to six or seven thousand yuan in ten years.
Five thousand yuan was not a small amount.
He also casually bought some vegetables, a few apples, and some oranges.
He took these things and went straight home.
Riding a Phoenix brand bicycle from the previous era, Zuo Chen staggered back home.
The sky was not dark yet, but it was close to dusk.
The weather in April changed so quickly that it would be completely dark soon.
"Hey, you slept on my back tonight? Or on top of me?" Zuo Chen suddenly thought of something and muttered to himself.
No one answered him.
Zuo Chen grinned. He was already a ghost, yet he was still shy?
As he rushed home, he teased the female ghost on his back.
Outsiders would think that Zuo Chen had gone crazy. He had been talking to himself along the way, saying some inexplicable words.
Zuo Chen didn't care about the strange looks of the people around him.
So what if he said it?
Could it eat him up?
"Ding Ling, Ding Ling…"
Zuo Chen rang the bell and rode home unsteadily…
"Woof woof woof…"
Zuo Chen could hear Dust Ball's roar from afar.
As Zuo Chen got closer to the door, Dust Ball's cries became softer.
Dust Ball was sitting on the floor at the entrance of the house, staring blankly at Zuo Chen as he approached…
Dust Ball whimpered as if she felt threatened. She started to retreat and looked at Zuo Chen with fear. She wanted to step forward but was afraid of the female ghost on Zuo Chen's back...
Dogs were psychic, let alone a large black dog.
Obviously, a dog's eyes could see things that human eyes couldn't.
"Come!"
Zuo Chen waved his hand and stroked the dog's head. He ignored Dust Ball and went into the kitchen with his vegetables and fruits.
That night, Zuo Chen made three dishes: a plate of braised pork, a plate of fried pork with green peppers, a stack of vegetables, and a tomato egg soup.
Four dishes were enough for the uncle and nephew!
That night, Zuo Chen scooped a bowl of rice, picked up two dishes with his chopsticks, and inserted them into the rice for Su Ling to eat.
Su Ling was a ghost, so she could only eat like this.
Zuo Xian saw it and did not say anything. He only glanced at the female ghost lying behind Zuo Chen and sighed softly.
He didn't say anything about how humans and ghosts had different paths. No matter how strong this ghost was, it couldn't kill Zuo Chen!
Zuo Chen's fate was very hard. Not only did the person who borrowed the knife say so, but Zuo Xian also knew how to read people's faces and could also see Zuo Chen's fate.
"Uncle, I'll board the ticket tomorrow morning.”Zuo Chen looked at Zuo Xian and smiled, indicating that he would return to Provincial City early tomorrow morning.
As for the man who wanted to introduce his daughter to him, he could do whatever he wanted.
If he couldn't figure out that he had gone to the provincial capital, then this person wouldn't be a loan person.
"Hmm…"
Zuo Xian looked at Zuo Chen and nodded. Then, he put down his chopsticks and turned around to enter the room. He took out a silver Tai Chi Eight Trigrams pendant and a letter and handed it to Zuo Chen."Wear this around your neck for protection. If you encounter any trouble in the capital, take this letter to the people of the Qingyang Palace. Tell them that you want to see Martial Ancestor Lyu. They saw the pendant on your neck and will let you in!”
"Pendant?"
Zuo Chen was stunned. He took the two items and examined them carefully.
No one had used letters for many years. He didn't expect that his uncle would not only write letters, but also have a red seal. There was a Tai Chi pattern on the red seal. It was obviously a special seal.
As for the Taiji Eight Trigrams Pendant…
The pendant was the size of a coin. The Eight Trigrams were acquired Eight Trigrams. Both sides looked the same. It was just an ordinary pendant.
Zuo Chen was a little suspicious. Would others really let him in if they saw it?
Zuo Xian looked at Zuo Chen and knew what he was thinking. "If you're still worried, just say that you're Zuo Changqing's nephew."”
"Oh, okay, got it!"
Zuo Chen grinned and hung the Taiji Eight Trigrams pendant around his neck.
When Zuo Xian saw this, he subconsciously looked at the female ghost in the red dress lying behind Zuo Chen.
However, the female ghost was like a phantom and did not care about the so-called Eight Trigrams pendant at all.
As expected…
Zuo Xian let out an indiscernible sigh. This level of small magic tool was still unable to get rid of this female ghost.
At that time, he could only see if his master could get rid of it.
The letter not only stated Zuo Chen's identity, but it also described his situation in recent years. It also mentioned the matter of the female ghost behind Zuo Chen.
Let's see if Master can get rid of it. If he can get rid of it, then get rid of it. If he can't get rid of it, then he has to seal it!
If Zuo Chen encountered any trouble, he would have to ask his master for help.
That was all the contents of the letter.
Now that the world was not peaceful, he knew that Zuo Chen was different. He could not teach Zuo Chen anything, so he could only leave some backup plans and send Zuo Chen to the Qingyang Palace at the critical moment...
"Alright, go wash up. I'll call you tomorrow morning!”After Zuo Xian finished eating, he began to clear the dishes and chased Zuo Chen upstairs.
Standing in the washroom, Zuo Chen stared blankly at Su Ling's figure in the mirror.
Immediately, a wicked smile appeared on his face.
"Hehehe, beauty, I'm going to take a shower, don't peek!”
