Chapter 144
The old man was sobbing as he spoke, holding his head in his hands and crying like a child.

Shui'er heard the old man say so miserable, couldn't help but also shed tears, walked over to comfort him, and the old man gradually calmed down.

Not long after, the old lady had already prepared the meals, cleaned up a table for the Eight Immortals, and set out a few small dishes. After everything was settled, she came over and saw that Shui'er's eyes were red and tears were still hanging on her face. So he comforted him: "Miss Shui'er, you don't have to worry, Daoist Qingyang's spells are so powerful, nothing will happen."

Shui'er nodded, did not speak, and did not dare to mention what the old man said just now, for fear of touching the sad things of the old man.Wiping away tears, he walked to the table and sat down.

With his back to the two of them, the old man lit another pot of cigarettes, smoked "clack-clack", and did not speak.The old lady was probably afraid of getting used to the old man, so she didn't dare to go over and call him.

After dinner, Shui'er looked at his watch. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening. At this time, one stick of incense had been replaced, and the second stick of incense was half burned.

The old grandma is getting old, and she usually has the habit of going to bed early. At this time, she is already haggard and sleepy, so Shui'er said to her: "Grandma, you and grandpa should go to bed early, I will watch here by myself. That's fine, when I was in school, I often read novels all night long, and I didn't get sleepy at all."

"Old lady, go to bed first if you're sleepy, as long as Miss Shui'er and I stay here and watch." The old man also spoke.

The old lady nodded and responded, feeling a little embarrassed, and said: "My old lady is not in good spirits, and she will feel sleepy at this point, so I will go to lie down for a while, and I will take over your shift in the middle of the night."

"Grandma, there's no need, you can just sleep. I can't sleep even if you let me sleep now." Shui'er laughed.

The old lady didn't say anything, she turned around and went into the back room.

The night was very deep, and everything was silent, except for the old man's occasional puffs of cigarettes, there was no other sound.

Now that she had just put on the fourth stick of incense, Shui'er suddenly felt that her eyelids were a bit heavy. She raised her hand and looked at her watch, and found that it was already past one o'clock in the morning.

It's really quiet tonight, it's so quiet that you can't even hear the chirping of insects outside the house!

Shui'er was in a trance, she was really sleepy, she hadn't had a good sleep in the past few days, and she was a little tired, she gradually felt that she couldn't hold on anymore.
