Chapter 1338: The Xu Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It had been two days since Da Qing suggested that they invite the Buddha over to worship it. Chi Shuyan hadn’t done anything for the past two days. In addition, the villagers were very vigilant, so she could only walk around the village at most.

She did want to use the Invisibility Talisman to go to the temple to investigate, but when she thought of how that unknown thing was being worshiped by the villagers, and how she had yet to figure out exactly what it was, she decided not to do anything that could alert the other party.

Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to see her if she used the Invisibility Talisman, but some “things” might still be able to.

Without enough information, she still preferred to act cautiously in someone else’s territory.

As for bringing the Buddha statue back, she naturally wouldn’t do it since she knew that there was something wrong with it.

It was just that the villagers seemed unable to tolerate this decision.

So, at 9am that day, just as Chi Shuyan and the others finished breakfast, an unfamiliar villager in his forties came over. His eyes were inexplicably dark and hostile, and he said coldly, “Our village chief is looking for you. He wants you to go over after breakfast!”

After saying that, the man immediately left, but his dark expression and hostile eyes left a deep impression on Chi Shuyan, Qi Zhenbai, Wu Haoming and Xiao Shan.

After all, the villagers they knew were very friendly and welcoming.

Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming thought of the strange Buddha statue and the strange things in the village. Wu Haoming couldn’t help but immediately put down his chopsticks and ask Chi Shuyan, “Chi… Sister-in-law, what should we do now? It doesn’t seem like a good idea to drag things out. Why don’t… why don’t we invite…”

Before Wu Haoming could finish speaking, Xiao Shan immediately interrupted him. “Invite that thing back here? Do you have a death wish?”

Wu Haoming also immediately retorted, “Won’t we die anyway if we don’t invite that thing in? Also, we might not necessarily die even if we invite it in!”

He had been staying in the village for several days. Although nothing had happened, Wu Haoming keenly sensed that something wasn’t right. However, they hadn’t found any useful information in the past two days. Wu Haoming felt inexplicably flustered and that something wasn’t right.

So, he was very irritated. As soon as Xiao Shan disagreed with him, his heart burned with anger.

But Wu Haoming quickly realized he was being emotional, and immediately calmed down. After regaining his composure, he explained, “President Qi, Sister-in-law, I’ve already found out something in the last day or two. For example, I’ve found out the true reason why the villagers believe in this Buddha statue so much – I heard from the villagers that this Buddha statue is a real spirit. If there is something you want, you can sincerely worship the statue every day and become a believer, and maybe one day, it’ll fulfill your wish. There used to be someone with the surname Xu in the village who was so poor that every day was a struggle. Also, his mother was old and terminally ill. Not to mention being treated in the village, even if she went to a big hospital for treatment, she would definitely die. It just so happened that this Xu person was a very well-known filial son. When he found out that his mother was ill, he went to the village temple every day and knelt for the whole day. Back then, many people in the village said that this filial son was stupid, but guess what happened after that, Sister-in-law?”

The more Wu Haoming spoke, the more enthusiastic he became. He forgot about his anger at Xiao Shan just now, but when he occasionally glanced at President Qi, who was sitting silently opposite him, he felt inexplicably diffident.

President Qi was the famous and decisive Chief Qi from back then, yet Wu Haoming had actually directly flared up in front of him just now? Did he want to die?

Wu Haoming lamented at his guts. Fortunately, President Qi didn’t move.

Chi Shuyan met Wu Haoming’s gaze and replied, “After his mother recovered, the Xu family also became rich?”

Wu Haoming had originally been deliberately keeping Master Chi in suspense, but who would have thought that she was so powerful? He didn’t need to say more, and she had actually guessed everything?

Wu Haoming’s eyes instantly widened in shock, and he looked at Chi Shuyan in disbelief. Chi Shuyan laughed a little. Wu Haoming had been giving so many clear hints just now; she would really be stupid if she still couldn’t guess!

Wu Haoming was still in disbelief. “Chi… Sister-in-law, you’re too awesome! Too smart!”

Chi Shuyan: …

Qi Zhenbai’s originally calm eyes immediately turned sharp as he looked at Wu Haoming.

Fortunately, Xiao Shan interrupted excitedly at that moment. “How is that possible? Is it really true? It’s fake, right? What happened after that? Old Wu!”

This was something Old Wu had heard, so he really didn’t know the details.

Wu Haoming was alarmed by President Qi’s sharp gaze, and he hurriedly shut his mouth and didn’t dare praise Master Chi anymore. He continued, “Later, that Xu guy’s mother did recover, and the Xu family suddenly became one of the richest families in the village. It was just that they found life in the village too boring, so they moved to the city. By the way, the house we’re living in was where the Xu family used to live. This was decades ago! I heard that when a few villagers went to buy things in the city, they saw the Xu guy and his mother living well, so the villagers respect and revere this Buddha statue!”

Xiao Shan had long forgotten his anger at Wu Haoming’s outburst, and was very immersed in Wu Haoming’s story. As soon as Wu Haoming finished listening, Xiao Shan immediately asked, “Sister-in-law, is it really that effective?”

Chi Shuyan raised her eyes slightly. There was no warmth in them. She didn’t know if it was true or not, but she knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. What happened to the Xu family back then probably wasn’t like that.

Chi Shuyan had a feeling that if she wanted to figure out the Buddha statue and what was going on in the village, she had to figure out what happened to the Xu family back then first. Even though Wu Haoming had found out that the Xu family was living well, decades had passed, and looking for them would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Thinking this, Chi Shuyan felt inexplicably tired.

At that moment, a pair of slender hands placed a cup of water in front of her. The man’s tone was intimate and natural, and there was some restrained concern between his eyebrows. “Are you tired? Rest for a while first!”
