Old Liu was shocked.
A few days ago, when I was selling sesame seed cakes in the market, I chatted with a constable about an interesting story from 70 years ago. I remembered that I casually told a story that everyone knew when I was young.
After that, he was invited to the palace by a big shot he couldn't usually see and even met the emperor.
Old Liu was so scared that he couldn't say anything. Was telling stories illegal? Old Liu thought.
When Yue Batian saw Old Liu's emotions gradually calming down, he gestured to the Chief of the Imperial Household.
The Head of Internal Affairs understood and walked to Old Liu. He squeezed out a smile on his stiff face and asked,"
"Old man, how old are you this year?"
"Qi... Reporting... Sir, this little old man is 75 years old!"
"Your son?"
"Dead!"
"Your grandson?"
"Dead!"
"This... How many people are there in your family?"
"Am I the only one at home?"
Old Liu was trembling and could only answer whatever you asked. He did not dare to say anything else.
Hearing Old Liu's miserable background, the sympathetic Gu Bai couldn't help but interject,
"Old man, your family has passed away. How have you been all these years?”
What Gu Bai asked was also what the Northern Region powerhouses present wanted to ask. Although they all had extraordinary powers, they had long since committed suicide in grief under the circumstances.
"Look forward, it's not a big deal."
Everyone admired him.
I didn't expect that we, who are used to seeing life and death, can't see it as clearly as a mortal.
Seeing that no one continued to ask questions, the chief steward continued to ask Old Liu,"
"Old man, can you tell us about the rumor from 70 years ago about the mute dog that Widow Zhang raised for ten years? The more detailed, the better."
Old Liu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. So he was asking about Widow Zhang from 70 years ago.
"Sir, you've come to the right person. I'm afraid I'm the only one in the world who knows about Widow Zhang. I was her neighbor when I was young."
Old Liu composed himself and slowly recounted the rumor from back then. Gradually, everyone seemed to follow the story as a bystander and traveled back 70 years.
"Little Liu, come quickly, let's go see the adults bathe naked.”
A group of six, five or six-year-old children tiptoed to the hole in the window of Widow Zhang's backyard. They took turns to look at Widow Zhang sitting in the wooden tub and taking a bath through the hole.
The children peeked at her and found it very fun. They couldn't help but laugh, which shocked Widow Zhang.
Furious, Widow Zhang put on her clothes and grabbed her weapon to chase after her. Soon, the entire village was filled with her curses, but the villagers were already used to it.
When Widow Zhang Niannian returned home, she saw a dog that looked like a husky lying on the ground and wagging its tail without saying a word. Although she was angry, she still brought half a bowl of rice from the kitchen to the husky. She squatted down and gently stroked it, her beautiful eyes already wet with tears.
"Little Tails, can't you yell at them when they bully me?”
The little tail dog, who was eating, heard its master's words. It tilted its head and took a look before continuing to eat.
night
"Thump! Thump!"
Just as Widow Zhang was about to rest, someone knocked on the door. Widow Zhang shouted twice, but no one answered. She was so nervous that she didn't open the door.
However, the knocking on the door continued. Even Little Liu, who was next door, was woken up. He looked through the window and saw that it was Second Uncle and Father, so he went back to sleep.
Too tired from playing during the day, too sleepy
She could vaguely hear her father shouting,"Your turn, your turn!"
In the next few days, Little Liu never saw Widow Zhang again. Some people said that he had been married to the county councilor as a concubine. Even the mute dog had disappeared.
Ten days later, when Little Liu was eating in front of the house, the mute dog next door limped back. At first, Little Liu and the villagers did not care about the mute dog.
On the third day after the mute dog returned, Little Liu's second uncle was about to open the door of Widow Zhang's house next door when the mute dog shouted,
"Get lost, if you don't want to die then get lost!"
Little Liu's second uncle, who thought that the mute dog had become a spirit, was so scared that he ran away.
One stone caused a thousand ripples, and soon," The mute dog that Widow Zhang has raised for ten years has spoken " spread like wildfire.
Since then, Little Liu and his family moved to the neighboring county. A few years later, his family members died of a strange disease. The fastest to die was Little Liu's second uncle.
...............
At this point in the story, Old Liu did not know what happened after that. Now, those who had experienced the rumors had all passed away.
When Old Liu was talking about the rumors, Gu Bai's eyes were filled with anger. He not only wanted to see Old Liu's life through the rules, but also to see if he was hiding anything.
And find out from his memory what he forgot and missed
However, the result was very normal. Old Liu's words were exactly the same as his memory.
This caused Gu Bai and the others to fall into a daze. The mute dog speaking and Mystic Moon suddenly turning blood red might be a coincidence.
It was not until the Head of the Imperial Household said something that made Gu Bai suddenly wake up,
"Old Liu was only five years old 70 years ago. How could he remember so clearly? He might have overlooked some things. Even I, who is in the Divine Transformation Realm, dare not say that I can remember the details 70 years ago."
Instantly, Gu Bai's eyes lit up.
First, when did Widow Zhang start raising dogs?
Secondly, what was the cause of Widow Zhang's husband's death?
Thirdly, what did Old Liu's father and second uncle do at Widow Zhang's house the night before she disappeared?
Thinking of this, Gu Bai decided to go to Widow Zhang's house from seventy years ago and see if he could use the Rule of Talent Qi to trace back time. After all, if some time had too great an impact on heaven and earth, Gu Bai, with his current cultivation, could not forcefully change the Rule.
