Chapter 70 The Village Chief's Secret
After seeing what he wanted to see, Zhang Tong quietly exited the room and followed the stairs back to the first floor.
After taking a look at the young people who had already started to put away the dishes, Zhang Tong opened the door and came to the courtyard of the village chief's house.
Here, you can vaguely see the fog-shrouded school, standing like three huge tombs on the edge of the village.
"After all, it was because of the appearance of supernatural creatures like tigers that secretly enshrined Baojiaxian."
"Or is it because of some other external influence?"
Zhang Tong looked in the direction of the school and chewed the village chief's words over and over in his heart.
Can a dead person be resurrected?
Zhang Tong really doesn’t know whether people can be resurrected after death. Maybe it’s not impossible?
But Zhang Tong felt that even if it was possible to do something that violated the laws of nature, it would still require a huge price to pay.
"Just like my extraordinary power, in addition to the rare extraordinary materials and formulas, I also need to accept the test of the black space during the promotion process. If I am not careful, I will be completely lost."
Thinking of the horrific scenes that he experienced when he was promoted to an extraordinary apprentice, Zhang Tong felt more and more that there would definitely be a huge price to pay for such things as resurrection from the dead.
"Are you the one who wants to be resurrected?"
His eyes were always fixed in the direction of the school. Although Zhang Tong couldn't see the coffin due to the fog, he knew that the person lying in the coffin should be the one who was most concerned about the village chief.
"If I didn't show that I knew something about ghosts and gods, the village chief would never have asked this question to outsiders, right?"
Zhang Tong's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
It wasn't until the sound of footsteps came from behind that Zhang Tong returned to his normal appearance.
"Dahai, what are our arrangements for the evening?" Fan Long asked quickly when he saw Zhang Tong standing at the door.
Although Fan Long is the oldest among them, it is obvious that Zhang Tong is the backbone of them now.
Zhang Tong thought for a while, then shook his head:
"I don't have any plans. I'll go back and rest soon."
"After you go back, you two take care of the two senior sisters while I go out for a walk."
Zhang Tong did not explain what he was going to do when he went out, but everyone who had seen Zhang Tong's magic was wise enough not to ask.
…
Walking on the muddy path in the mountain village, Zhang Tong looked at the tile-roofed houses and bungalows hidden in the mist around him, while Zhang Tong felt solemn and cautious.
"If it's really what I thought, it would be such a surprise."
When Zhang Tong saw the Baojia Immortal Spirit Tablet, a possibility arose in his mind. It was a possibility that even he was not willing to believe.
Wearing a carbon fiber knight uniform and a saber stuffed into his boots, Zhang Tong walked towards the village committee.
Along the way, even the patrol members who met Zhang Tong, a young man who seemed to have extraordinary abilities, simply avoided him instead of approaching him for questioning.
The journey was smooth, and Zhang Tong soon arrived at the village committee of the mountain village.
It's said to be a village committee, but it's actually just an ordinary courtyard, with at most just a few more rooms inside.
The lights of the village committee were still on, and the village chief could be vaguely seen sitting in front of the window, wrapped in his clothes, writing something while burying the case.
Opening the door, Zhang Tong walked in directly.
The creaking sound of the door pushed open made the village chief slowly raise his head, and after seeing that the person coming was Zhang Tong, the village chief's face showed a complicated expression.
The friendly smile before and the demeanor that the village chief should have no longer existed. The village chief sitting there looked like an ordinary little old man.
Seeing the village chief's changing expression, Zhang Tong pulled up a chair and sat down: "Did you know I would come?"
Snap!
The village chief slowly picked up his pipe, lit it with a lighter, took a deep puff, and then looked at Zhang Tong with a tired expression:
"I know, when I asked you that question, I knew you would come."
Zhang Tong nodded with a calm expression: "Since you know that I will be suspicious, why do you still ask me that question?"
"Haha...why?" The village chief suddenly smiled, his smile was very forced.
The pungent smell of low-quality tobacco filled the whole room, and the village chief looked directly at Zhang Tong:
"I can tell you why, but before I tell you, I want you to tell me... whether people can be resurrected after death!"
Under the dim light, the village chief's face full of grooves seemed to have a hint of madness.
Looking at the village chief calmly, Zhang Tong shook his head: "I don't know, maybe there is, but it will definitely cost a lot."
"It's good to have it, it's good to have it. She didn't lie to me, hahaha, she didn't lie to me."
After getting Zhang Tong's answer, the village chief seemed to have gone crazy suddenly and started to giggle, his old face filled with a dreamy sense of happiness.
she?
This word made Zhang Tong's heart move, and the body sitting on the chair subconsciously leaned forward.
Staring at the village chief, Zhang Tong said in a deep voice: "I have answered your question, it's time for you to tell me the truth, right?"
Hearing this, the village chief took a deep breath, looked at Zhang Tong calmly, took a sip of the tobacco leaves he bought at the market, and then spoke slowly:
"You all know about my son, right?"
"He had an accident a week ago. I don't know exactly what happened. I only know that when he was carried back, he was already out of breath."
"My heart hurt at that time."
"I'm just one son. It's impossible for our old Wang family's incense to end here, right?"
"Just when I was desperate, a woman came to me and told me that she could resurrect the dead."
"Haha... Of course I don't believe this, but the skills she displays next make me believe it."
"Did you know? She actually let my son's ghost possess him!"
Zhang Tong listened carefully, and at the same time looked at the village chief with strange eyes. Can he believe this kind of deceptive trick?
As if sensing Zhang Tong's gaze, the village chief chuckled:
"Haha, don't believe it."
"I didn't believe it at the time, but I verified it and it was my son's ghost."
"My son talked to me for a while, and she came back to her senses."
"She told me that she has the ability to resurrect the dead, but the conditions are very harsh."
"All electromagnetic radiation must be cleaned up."
"So I took advantage of the night to destroy all the power lines in the village and the signal station on the top of the mountain!"
Having said this, the village chief showed a painful expression on his face. He covered his face with his hands and muttered to himself in an unusually guilty tone:
"But I didn't expect this. I really didn't expect this!"
