glamorous ghost wife

Chapter 523 Head-to-head confrontation
The night breeze was cool, and after leaving the bamboo house, I took a casual walk, and stopped again when I passed a three-way intersection.

I am very unfamiliar with this place, and the only memory I have is when I was still in my family. Everything about the hermit family is a mystery to me.

"I don't know how to choose, right? Every road leads to a different place, but as long as you know where you are, you can also return here, just like your life. You went out from here, and now you figure it out. Come back again."

An old voice sounded behind me, I turned around and saw that it was the old doctor just now.

I bowed to him.

He helped me up, looked me up and down with his eyes, and the smile at the corner of his mouth deepened.

"I didn't expect you to be so big now. When I saw you, you were still in your infancy. Now you are also a good-looking talent. Show me your meridians."

I gave him my hand, and he probed, his originally smiling expression suddenly became serious, and finally a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. After probing for a long time, he stroked his white beard and let out a clear sigh.

"The members of that family are really surprising. We expected that you would not survive, but now your meridians have been opened, your body is no different from ordinary people, and your mana has reached the realm of a pseudo-celestial being. It’s amazing, come, sit down in my gazebo, I’ve prepared good wine for you, let’s have a good talk.”

I didn't refuse, and followed him directly to the gazebo. This gazebo was built next to the medicine garden. When the breeze blew, a faint fragrance of medicine entered the tip of my nose, which was refreshing.

This old doctor quickly learned how to enjoy it.

"We don't have any expensive wine here. This is my own brewed fruit wine. It's called fruit wine, but every fruit can be brewed into a top-notch elixir. It's good for you to drink it."

The gurgling aroma of wine permeated the air, taking a deep breath, I felt refreshed.

"I've been visiting you for so long, and the junior still doesn't know how to address you?"

Every move of this old gentleman is very similar to a person I know, Ling Xuzi.

"It's a beautiful day tonight, between you and me just drink, we don't talk about anything else, as for the title, it's just a foreign matter, you can call me whatever you like, people here call me old man medicine, you can do whatever they want. "

He took the wine cup, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, feeling very happy.

I didn't hold back any more, clinked glasses with him, and after a few glasses of wine, I suddenly felt a little dizzy. I am not a person who can drink, and I usually control the amount of alcohol I drink, but now I am extremely confident The old man passed out in a trance.

When I woke up again, I only felt a burning pain in my body. I moved, but I couldn't move my arms and legs.

There was an angry shout in his ear.

"He woke up, burn him to death, we can't let him do harm to the hermit family again!"

"Yes, he must be burned to death!"

Many echoed.

I opened my eyes, and a glare of sunlight came in. I wanted to raise my hand to cover it, but found that my hands and feet were tied.

The inhabitants before me were hermit families, all sullen, with torches in their hands, and a small bundle of sticks was already set ablaze at my feet.

"What do you want to do?!"

I let out a low growl, only to find that my voice was extremely hoarse.

What exactly is going on?Could it be that all of this was the conspiracy of that old man last night, who deliberately got me drunk, sealed my mana, and handed it over to the hermit family.

And what good would it do him?
I looked around, and there was no sign of him in the crowd, nor Lan Zifeng and Ling Ding. They may still be in the bamboo house now, so I haven't found it yet.

"What do you want to do? Of course, you are the scourge of burning to death. Our hermit family doesn't need your Zhang family at all, and you, Zhang Ziheng, clearly know this, but sneaked into the hermit family. You did it out of deliberate intentions." Why? Are you still not reconciled to making us look like this, and now you still want our lives?!"

An old man in yellow shirt stepped forward and said indignantly.

I scanned around and found that all the people here have become old men and old ladies, but they are full of energy, and they don't look old at all. Could it be that their appearance has changed?

When they saw that I didn't speak, the man in the yellow shirt directly stretched out the torch to my feet angrily. It was covered with oil, and with a bang, the fire wrapped me tightly like a fire dragon. Some dry firewood, now that the wind blows, the fire burns even more vigorously, they want to burn me to death!

However, I am not worried. With my current ability, I can break free from the rope and escape. I am just waiting, waiting for someone.

"Stop it, have you had enough trouble!"

A shout rang out among the crowd, and the crowd opened a road immediately, and three or five people carrying buckets came out from there. They put out the fire and untied the rope for me. The person I walked over bowed and said: "Patriarch."

The white-bearded old man in front of him is the patriarch of the hermit family, the most powerful person in the entire hermit family.

Looking at his appearance, he is different from other people. He still has black hair on his temples, and there are not so many wrinkles between his eyes. He is a few years younger than they look.

He patted the ashes off my body, and when he looked at me, his eyes were full of love.

"Why don't you come to me when you come back, your child has grown up so much now, let uncle take a good look at it!"

I circled around so that he could see it more clearly, and the surprise in his eyes was even greater, so he nodded, "Yes, you are indeed a good-looking talent, you have only come back after so long, and I have always missed you very much, come on, Go to uncle's place and have a good meal, your aunt will miss you."

He grabbed my shoulders and was about to leave without any explanation, but those villagers who made trouble quit, and stepped forward to ask: "Village chief, do you really want to let the whole village die before you are willing?" ? This person is obviously a scourge, and you let us get rid of him, isn't it for the sake of the whole village?"

"Modi, that's enough for you. Don't forget your own identity. I haven't pursued you for inciting the whole village to persecute Zhang Ziheng. Now you come to bargain with me. As the patriarch of the hermit family, will I harm you?" Can't your own people?"

When the patriarch said this, his eyes opened angrily, and a fierce aura erupted from his whole body, directly suppressing the anger on Modi.

Modi sighed, then raised his head and said: "Patriarch, Modi people are soft-spoken and never thought of betraying you or the hermit family, but Zhang Ziheng cannot stay in the hermit family. Is it a punishment given to us by God? If you insist on staying, then I, Modi, will kill myself here today to show my determination!"
