Reborn 1980: Remarry the old neighbor next door

Chapter 237 Token
"Those who need to use this kind of witchcraft must pay their price."

Lao Zhang thought of the young and blooming woman whose face slowly rotted away later, and felt pity in his heart. If he had stopped her at that time, maybe it would have been a different story.

"Old Zhang? Old Zhang?"

Wang Guojun shook Lao Zhang's shoulders and brought Lao Zhang back to reality from his past memories.

"Huh? I remembered some things from the past."

"Lao Zhang, how can we resolve it?"

Wang Guojun frowned, feeling confused.

"Maybe someone would understand that Miao village back then."

"it is good."

Under Lao Zhang's explanation, Wang Guojun and Tian Mengqing began to make preparations.

After arranging a month's supply of milk powder for Wang Zeyu, Tian Mengqing and Wang Guojun set off with Lao Zhang's token.

Along the way, Wang Guojun took Tian Mengqing over mountains and ridges, seeing all the scenery along the way.

Finally, after seven days of journey, Wang Guojun and Tian Mengqing arrived at the Miao village mentioned by Lao Zhang.

Looking around, there are thousands of households in the Miao village.

The complicated environment forced them to be more vigilant. At the same time, the workload of finding the village chief's home became much larger.

When Lao Zhang was young, it was already 50 to [-] years ago. There have been earth-shaking changes. I wonder if this technique has still been passed down.

Wang Guojun took Tian Mengqing deep into the Miao village. On the narrow road, there were cow and horse excrement and bustling pedestrians.

Tian Mengqing and Wang Guojun inquired all the way, asking everyone they met. Finally, God paid off and they found out about a family who had been the village chief in that era.

The villagers seemed to be very taboo about talking about this family.

Finally, with the unremitting efforts of Wang Guojun and Tian Mengqing, they found a kind person who was willing to show the way.

Following the guidance of the villagers, Wang Guojun and Tian Mengqing saw a dilapidated house.

"OK, thanks."

After thanking the villagers, Tian Mengqing and Wang Guojun walked along the road towards the house.

Almost all the tiles on the roof have fallen off, leaving only some broken tiles scattered on the roof.

The doors and windows were broken and rotten, and it looked completely deserted. The mud at the door was covered with weeds.

As he got closer, a pungent musty smell hit his nostrils.

In the corner of the wall, some mildew spots on the ground came into view.

Faced with such an environment, Tian Mengqing felt a chill go down his spine and couldn't help but tighten his hand on Wang Guojun's hand.

Wang Guojun looked back at Tian Mengqing and pursed his lips in encouragement.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

In such a harsh environment, there are still people living in a house that is in danger of collapsing at any time. What kind of people would live in such a house for a long time.

Wang Guojun had no idea that this family was good at witchcraft, so he couldn't rule out that they would also order something else.

But victory was right in front of him, and he had to move forward bravely.

Wang Guojun unconsciously squeezed Tian Mengqing's hand harder.

Tian Mengqing knew that Wang Guojun was also under great pressure, so she nodded to cheer him up.Finally, they found an old man with white hair and rags in a place that looked like a kitchen.

"Hello~"

Wang Guojun greeted cautiously.

Silently following Wang Guojun, Tian Mengqing stared nervously at the strange old man in front of him.

The hearing of the old man's ears should still be very good. After Wang Guojun spoke, he didn't look very surprised. He just tilted his head slightly and looked at the person with his peripheral vision.

The old man said nothing, and Wang Guojun spoke again.

"Hello, we are looking for the Miao village chief of this village 40 years ago. Do you know?"

Hearing that Wang Guojun and others were looking for the village chief named Miao, the old man paused for a moment, then continued to break off the fire-kindling branches in his hands and threw them into the stove pit.

Seeing the old man's reaction, Wang Guojun knew that the old man must know something, so he continued to ask.

"Old man, I don't know if you are the owner of this house. The people in the village pointed out this place to us just now."

"We have something urgent to find the village chief. The person next to me is my lover. She was harmed by an adulterer and possessed by witchcraft, so we must find someone who can forgive her. Otherwise, if this continues for a long time, she His health is very worrying.”

Wang Guojun told the old man in front of him all their reasons for coming here, hoping to make the old man feel compassionate and help them.

The old man never meant to let go.

Tian Mengqing and Wang Guojun couldn't figure out what the old man meant. They just felt that such an old man had a weird personality, just like what the villagers on the road said just now.

"Old man, as long as you can help us, we will try our best to satisfy you if you need anything."

As soon as Tian Mengqing said these words, the old man raised his eyelids and turned to stare at Tian Mengqing. Tian Mengqing was a little scared. She retreated behind Wang Guojun, not daring to look directly into the old man's eyes. Wang Guojun protected Tian Mengqing.

"Old man, if you can help us, what is your wish? As long as it does not violate morality and justice, and it is not a matter of murder and arson. As long as we can do it, we will do our best and never break our promise."

Wang Guojun followed Tian Mengqing's words and made another promise to the old man. The old man seemed a little moved.

The old man turned his loving gaze to Wang Guojun again. He stared at Wang Guojun expressionlessly, then looked at Tian Mengqing behind Wang Guojun, and finally spoke, his orpiment-stained teeth exposed.

"Really, I can make any conditions?"

Wang Guojun turned to look at Tian Mengqing behind him, then turned back and nodded firmly.

"As I said just now, as long as it does not violate benevolence, justice and morality, and it is not murder and arson, as long as we can do it, we will do our best and never break our promise."

The old man stroked his white beard, thoughtfully.

"Tell me what your specific situation is."

Seeing that the old man finally spoke, Wang Guojun took out the token that Lao Zhang had given him before leaving just in case.

"Old man, do you know the owner of this token? I don't know if he is still there. The old man at home asked me to give it to the owner."

The old man started to tremble. He stretched out his calloused hands and took the thing from Wang Guojun's hand tremblingly. It was like a hydrangea but different from a hydrangea, like a monkey holding a bead.

The old man was holding the thing, with stars in his eyes. This thing seemed to carry a lot of stories.

"Is this really given to you by an old man in your family? Are you the descendants of the owner of this token?"

The old man's series of questions could not conceal his excitement.

"We are not his descendants, but this old man is destined to live in our house."

The old man nodded, and his attitude seemed to have softened a lot, compared to the indifference he had when they first met.
