Reiki revived, they want me to save the world!

Chapter 41
In this situation, Muyan definitely can't tell him the truth.

"My uncle and grandpa live here, I'll come and see him." Mu Yan blurted out such a sentence without thinking.

When Chen Wei heard Mu Yan's answer, his eyes darkened for a moment, and then returned to normal, but his voice had a deep meaning.

"Really? I have lived here since I was a child. Who is your uncle and grandpa? I can take care of you for you if you don't have time. We are all classmates and should help each other."

Muyan was a little dumbfounded, but she couldn't take back what she said.

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the front left, there was an old man wearing dark blue clothes and black cloth shoes, sitting on a small bamboo chair basking in the sun, saw Muyan pointing at him, and waved at Muyan.

Muyan didn't expect this strange old man to cooperate with her so much, but the old man has cooperated with her, can she stop acting?

The answer was no, so she stretched out her hand and waved to the old man as well.

"See, that's my uncle and grandpa."

Chen Wei didn't expect that she would dare to follow her fingers, let alone that the old man would respond to her.

Others don't know, Chen Wei still doesn't know?That old man Zhou is a widowed old man who has lived alone for more than ten years and has never heard of any relatives.

Someone lied to Muyan, and she didn't want to stay where she was, so she said goodbye to Chen Wei and walked towards old man Zhou.

"Master, where are you basking in the sun?" Mu Yan squatted next to the uncle, because she saw Chen Wei still standing there looking at her from the corner of her eye.

"Yes, yes, girl, what's the matter?" the uncle asked Muyan with a smile.

"It's okay, sir, I'll come over to say hello."

After chatting with the uncle on the spot again, Chen Wei turned and went home.

Seeing Chen Wei leave, Mu Yan bid farewell to the uncle and prepared to leave.

"Girl, you happen to be here. I have a letter here. Please read it for me. I am old and my eyes are blurred and I can't read clearly."

Muyan saw that old man Zhou was quite kind, so she didn't think much, and went into the house with old man Zhou.

Old man Zhou seemed to be living alone. There was a square dining table on the left hand side of the door, and two benches were stacked on the side of the table against the wall.

On the right hand side is a long stool covered with a layer of quilt cushions. In front of the long stool is an earthen stove, the kind that burns briquettes.

The place facing the gate is a shrine made of a cabinet. On the shrine is a plate of fruit, a plate of snacks, and a bowl. There are still a few burnt incense stuck on the rice in the bowl.

Above the shrine, there is a portrait of Guanyin Bodhisattva. The Guanyin on the portrait has kind eyebrows, kind eyes, and compassion for the world.

The room smelled of sandalwood, and it was cleaned quite clean, which surprised Mu Yan.

Because there are few elderly people who live alone who can clean their home so clean and tidy.

After Muyan and the old man entered the door, the old man led Muyan to the Sifang table, lifted a wooden stool, picked up the rag hanging under the Sifang table, and wiped the stool clean.

Seeing the old man's busy work, Muyan's affection for the old man became stronger.

"Master, you don't need to be busy. I have to go home for dinner. Where's your letter? Let me read it first."

The uncle agreed with his mouth, and he still didn't stop what he was supposed to do.

After Muyan sat down, he brought out some fruits and desserts, put them on the table, let Muyan eat first, and went to the bedroom to look for the letter.

After he finished speaking, he looked around, as if something was missing, he poured a glass of water for Muyan with a disposable paper cup, and placed it in front of Muyan.

Then he smiled at Muyan, and then entered the room, looking for a letter for Muyan to read.

Mu Yan felt that this old man was a simple and honest old man.

Maybe it was because she was old, Muyan waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for the old man to come out, she was a guest at someone else's house, and there was no way to look around.

So Muyan obediently sat on the stool and waited for the old man.

Muyan was too embarrassed to eat fruits from other people's homes, especially those from an old man who lived alone, so she picked up the water glass and took a sip of water.

After she finished drinking the water, the old man came out with a letter wrapped in a brown paper envelope.

"Girl, this is the letter. My son sent it to me. I'm getting old and I can't read the words clearly. Read it to me."

Hearing what the old man said, Muyan felt very curious. In this day and age, do people still communicate with each other by writing letters?

Before she finished her doubts, the old man on the other side had already explained to Muyan.

Old man Zhou has a son, who is 38 years old this year. He didn't like toys since he was a child. He likes to read some books related to spiritual practice, and his academic performance will always be at the bottom.

At that time, old man Zhou's wife was still there. Seeing his son's condition, he discussed with his wife and decided to respect his son's choice.

What surprised him and his wife was that their son actually chose to study. Since then, he studied very hard, and finally, he worked hard during the college entrance examination and got into a good university.

His son hadn't been in college for two years when his wife got sick and died.

His son didn't come back either. He just called him to comfort him. After that, his son wrote him a letter every three to five months.

After hearing about old man Zhou, Muyan guessed that Zhou's son may have always been interested in those things, but he chose to study because he didn't want to hurt his parents.

But his heart is not on this, whether it is Taoism or Buddhism's attitude towards life and death, they are not attached and can see it openly.

So the son of the Zhou family didn't find it difficult to accept the death of old man Zhou's wife, and maybe even thought it was normal.

Mu Yan shook her head, she didn't have a good rest last night, she was a little dizzy.

She opened the letter that old man Zhou's son had written to Zhou Kaotou, the handwriting of old man Zhou's son was very good, and Mu Yan didn't bother to read it.

"Dear father, my business ability has become more prominent recently, and the leader intends to promote me, so I don't have time to come back to see you... Take care..."

Muyan felt that her eyelids were getting heavier, and she looked at the smile on Old Man Zhou's face in a daze, but felt that the originally kind smile had become a little weird.

Then she closed her eyes and lay motionless on the table.

Seeing her lying on the table, old man Zhou tentatively called her twice, "Girl?...Girl?"

Muyan didn't seem to notice anything, and didn't respond, old man Zhou took another step forward, shaking Muyan's shoulder, but Muyan was still motionless.

He stood up, went to sit on a long stool, took out his mobile phone and called someone.

After a while, a thin man came out from the backyard of old man Zhou's house.

The man was dirty and smelly, his hair was knotted on his head and neck, and scattered in strands on his head and neck.

This thin man walked up to Muyan, looked at Muyan who was lying on the table with her eyes tightly closed and her brows slightly furrowed, and nodded in satisfaction.

Then he raised his hand and reached out to Muyan...
