Chapter 174
In an instant, the yard was dark and crowded with "people".These people include men and women, old and young, ugly and handsome, and have all kinds of clothes.They all had their hands in their sleeves, and they all squatted down.In this way, although Zhou Shui sat back on the stool again, he still stood out from the crowd.

Zhou Shui roughly estimated that there must be more than 100 people in this courtyard.These people were all squatting in silence.But his eyes were all looking towards Zhou Shui.Squatting down with your arms sleeved is considered a sign of weakness and no hostility.Zhou Shui knew this. Since the other party was not hostile, there was no need for Zhou Shui to be nervous.Zhou Shui made a gossip on purpose: "When did you arrive, and you didn't say hello in advance."

It doesn't matter what Zhou Shui said, the following chattered away.Some talked about it for a while, some said they had just arrived, and some said they had stayed here all day, and they couldn't hear a word in a hurry.

At this moment, Zhou Shui heard someone call out behind him: "Who are you talking to? You..." He only heard half of the words, and only heard a "thump", which was the sound of someone falling down.Zhou Shui knew it was Old Chen from the sound, and said to himself: It's bad, Uncle Chen has never seen this scene before.Don't be scared out of good or bad. "

When Zhou Shui turned his head, he saw that Old Chen was sitting on the stone steps at the door with his mouth open and his eyes wide open.Pointing at everyone, speechless.It turned out that Old Chen got up at night, heard someone talking outside, opened the door and walked out.Although these supernatural beings appear in human form, they are weird and have all kinds of shapes, so that people can tell that they are not human at a glance.As soon as Lao Chen came out of the house, he saw the monster in this yard. Thanks to knowing that Zhou Shui was there in advance, if it weren't for this, Lao Chen would have been scared sick.

Zhou Shui hurriedly helped Lao Chen up, and couldn't stop comforting him: "It's okay, it's okay, they don't mean anything malicious."

All the ghosts also said in unison: "No malicious intentions, we are still old neighbors."

Old Chen calmed down.Zhou Shui helped him up and let him sit on the stool.Seeing that these monsters had their arms folded and squatted on the ground with an "honest" look, Lao Chen felt more at ease.He turned his head and asked Zhou Shui: "These are your friends?"

Zhou Shui didn't know how to answer.These monsters looked expectant, as if they were waiting for Zhou Shui to speak, waiting for Zhou Shui to say that they were friends.Zhou Shui is not a person who sticks to small details, so he simply laughed and nodded: "Although it is the first time we met, we hit it off right away, and it is not an exaggeration to say that we are friends."

The monsters were overjoyed.Some say it's not an exaggeration, some say it's a friend.Old Chen let out a long breath and said, "Why don't you talk to me and let me avoid it?"

Zhou Shui thought to himself: The purpose of these little monsters' trip must be related to Lao Chen or this small mountain village.Lao Chen is the rightful owner, so there is no need to go back and spread the word.So Zhou Shui said: "Uncle Chen, these friends must have something to do with our village or the people in the village. Please listen. Don't worry, don't worry about your safety."

The monsters also said: "Old Chen, we watched you grow up. When did we hurt you? This person is a fairy, and he has rules. We will never hurt anyone."

Old Chen hesitated for a while, but said, "That's fine, then I'll listen."

The monsters are going to talk again.Zhou Shui waved his hand: "Everyone said, who should we listen to? Well, you choose a few representatives. Let's talk in detail."

The representatives were selected quite quickly, and three were selected, an old man, an old lady, and a young girl.Of course, this is only "similar in shape", it seems that the three of them are the leaders of this group of monsters.

The old man had a thin face and an old-fashioned look. He opened his mouth and spoke the local dialect: "I heard that the young man's surname is Zhou? Well, this surname is Zhou. Master Wen's surname is Zhou, King Wen of Zhou."

The old lady rolled her eyes at the old man, and said in a low voice: "The head of the family, King Wen's surname is Ji, what kind of Zhou is his surname? This blindfold can't reach it, is it timid?"

The old man was a little embarrassed, and said forcefully: "Why do you say that your surname is Ji? You caught up, and you gave it a name? I said that my surname is Zhou, which has the same surname as the young man. What's wrong?"

The old lady said again: "King Wu, his son, isn't he called Ji Fa?"

The old man stared at him: "He also has a son named Bo Yikao, so he is also named Bo? Besides, you can't have your son's surname whatever your father's surname, father and son's surname? Wouldn't that be a mess?"

The old lady fell silent.The girl said: "Grandpa and grandma are busy talking about the business. After a while, you will have to hide again. Sigh, I don't know if it will work?"

The old man stood up, took a step forward, leaned in front of Zhou Shui, nodded and bowed and said, "There is Zhou Yu, it doesn't matter, have you heard of him?"

Hearing Grandpa's name being mentioned, Zhou Shui subconsciously stood upright.The smirk on his face was also put away.He bowed slightly and said, "This is my grandfather. It seems that you and my grandfather are old friends. What do you call the old man?"

Hearing what Zhou Shui said, the old man let go: "I said he looks alike. 60 years ago, your grandfather was like you now. But your grandfather is not like you. This group of big girls and young wives, you never Where did it come from?"

Zhou Shui blushed.Although a little angry, it's not easy to attack.Listening to the tone, this fairy family seems to have lived in his own house.According to the rules of the Xian family, once you enter the hall, the host and guest are the ones.Although the Baojiaxian of the ancestors cannot enter the ancestral hall, they must be respected as the ancestors.To tell the truth, if there is really a tribulation and six disasters for the family offering immortals, the immortal family will also do their best, so why not call it Baojiaxian.Therefore, seeing the fairy family is like seeing the ancestors.Otherwise, why would Mr. Zhou lead his son and daughter-in-law to kowtow at the entrance of the Zhao family hall?

Zhou Shui has to figure out whether he has entered the incense hall of his ancestors, which is related to Zhou Shui's future actions.Zhou Shui cupped his hands: "Ask the old man to respect and taboo?"

At this time, the old man let go completely: "Don't you arrange a seat for my old man?" Lao Chen took two more stools from the room and waited for the old man and lady to sit down.Old Chen took out his cigarettes again and lit them for the two himself.The old man sat down boldly, turned his head, and introduced to the monsters behind: "Everyone, don't be restrained, this judge is not an outsider, we are from our own family. In terms of seniority, you are all his elders. After a while, everyone complains about the hardships and difficulties. If he dares to say no, I will slap him a few times. Hey, you said it was a coincidence that a judge came here, and he was also a grandson. Haha. "

The old man turned his head and said to Zhou Shui: "I'm not going to hide it from you. I have sat in your house, but it can only be counted as half. I went to your house with my father and my elder brother. Oh, it was during the Daoguang period. I remember, your family was the head of Duke Jigan at that time..."

Having said that, Zhou Shuixin said: "Yes, another master who cannot be offended."
