After I was murdered, my scumbag uncle went completely crazy

The car was shaking all the way.

I originally thought that Gu Hanting’s presence was so strong that I might not be able to sleep.

Who knew I would fall asleep so quickly.

When I woke up, I found that I was actually resting my head on the palm of Gu Hanting's hand, and my hand was still holding his arm.

When on earth did I end up in this position? How come I have no memory of it at all?!

He wouldn't have been holding on like this all the way, right? !

I felt a little embarrassed when I thought about how his shoulder was numb from how I fell asleep last night.

"Are we there yet?" Noticing that the car had stopped, I turned my head and looked around. The strange and desolate scene made me subconsciously ask, "Where is this? Why is it so desolate?"

Gu Hanting glanced at me with a very dark look in his eyes.

I felt a little guilty for some reason and pursed my lips, "What's wrong?"

Could it be that this is Mr. Chi’s hometown?

But this is too absurd!

The Chi family is a well-known family in Yuncheng after all, and they have been engaged in business for three generations. It doesn't make sense that their hometown would be so remote and backward.

Unexpectedly, Gu Hanting said, "This is the hometown of the Chi family."

"Haven't you come here with them to worship your ancestors before? Why do you seem to be unfamiliar with this place?"

I was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to explain.

Considering Chi Xi's current status in the Chi family, it is understandable that she has never participated in the ancestor worship.

But before the Chi family knew that Chi Xi was not their biological daughter, they were still very kind to her.

"I don't come here often, and... it feels like this place is changing every time I come back."

I pretended to look around, trying to find some familiar scenes in my memory.

Unfortunately, there is none at all.

Could it be that Chi Xi had never been here before? !

I just don’t know whether Gu Hanting will believe my reason.

Fortunately, he believed it.

"Well, there are hardly any people around here, and the environment is getting more desolate every year. There are indeed changes."

I breathed a sigh of relief quietly, "Have the Chi family arrived?"

"I don't know, it should be here."

"Then where do we find them?" I asked in a low voice.

Gu Hanting looked at me again. There was so much in his eyes that it made me feel uneasy.

"I don't like coming here. I always feel it's eerie and scary."

I reluctantly explained, "So every time I come here, I close my eyes."

He accepted my statement again, reached out and patted the back of my hand, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

I nodded, feeling like I had escaped another disaster.

"I'd better give them a call and ask where it is."

I called Father Chi, told him we had arrived, and asked about the location of the ancestral home.

Father Chi told me that if I followed the path at the entrance of the village and saw a big locust tree, I would walk east for about 700 meters, climb over a small hill, and the ancestral home would be at the bottom of the hill.

I followed his instructions and went into the village with Gu Hanting.

As a result, the further we walked, the more desolate it became, and I even felt that it was chilly and eerie all around me.

I didn’t believe in ghosts and gods before, and didn’t think there was anything wrong with them.

But after experiencing becoming a ghost and then being possessed and reborn, I realized that there are really many things in this world that cannot be explained by common sense.

The Chi family's ancestral home is a perfect place for shooting horror movies when the lights are turned on in the middle of the night.

I swallowed my saliva and held Gu Hanting's arm not daring to let go.

I finally found the big locust tree, but looking at the similar surroundings, I felt a little overwhelmed.

"How do you tell which is east?"

Gu Hanting reached out and tidied up my scattered bangs. "Are you scared?"

You don't need to look to know that I must not look very well at the moment.

"A little bit." Mainly because this place is too gloomy.

Gu Hanting held my hand and said, "With me here, nothing will happen."

"You don't understand..." I wanted to explain, but how could I make him understand such an incredible thing?

"Forget it. You won't understand even if I tell you."

"I understand!" Gu Hanting looked at me very seriously and said this.

For a moment, I was a little shaken by his serious look.

I thought, why not just tell him about my rebirth.

But in the end, I suppressed the urge.

Gu Hanting didn't force me and took me to the east. After walking about seven hundred meters, we saw a small earthen slope.

After going over the hill, you will see a building that looks like an ancestral hall.

In the desolate surroundings, the ancestral hall is so complete that it is out of place.

Father Chi stood outside the ancestral hall, and for the first time, his usually selfish and worldly face showed respect.

When he saw Gu Hanting and me, he immediately came over to us in a fawning manner.

"Mr. Gu, you guys are here. Isn't this place hard to find?!"

He wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was exhausted after walking all the way here.

"I should have come to pick you up, but I still need to set up things here, so I didn't come. Please don't blame me, Mr. Gu."

Gu Hanting waved his hand and said nothing.

Father Chi did not continue to flatter him, but walked over and performed a simple sacrifice at the door, then pushed open the door of the ancestral hall and went in.

The ancestral hall is an old-style ancient building.

Entering the dark door is a patio.

Further inside the patio is the main room.

Behind the main hall is the place where ancestors are enshrined.

Father Chi led us all the way there and then lit some incense in front of a bunch of queues.

Chi Yu and Chi's mother put on a show of fairness, and the three of them kowtowed to the ancestor respectfully.

Father Chi was still kneeling on the mat, muttering something, but no one knew what he was asking his ancestors to bless him with.

After he finished paying homage, he stood up and introduced his ancestors in order.

"This is Xixi's fiancé, the future son-in-law of our Chi family."

"I have brought him here today to meet all of you ancestors, and to let you recognize him."

Chi's mother said with a sour tone, "Xixi's fiancé is not an ordinary person."

"You must bless them to live in harmony and happiness."

"Whether our Chi family can move up in the future depends entirely on Xixi, our fiancé."

She complimented me, and Gu Hanting and I pretended not to understand her sarcasm.

Seeing that none of us spoke, Mother Chi felt bored.

Chi Yu frowned, "Why don't you come and kowtow to the ancestors?"

"Just because you are about to join the Gu family, you are not going to acknowledge the ancestors of the Chi family, right?!"

I gave her a cold look.

"I'm not from the Chi family. Is it weird that I don't recognize the ancestors of the Chi family?"

Father Chi's face suddenly became a little ugly, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of our ancestors?!"

I felt a little emotional, but out of awe for the king, I didn't say anything. Instead, I took the incense beside me and lit it.

After bowing three times, I inserted the incense into the incense burner and said to Gu Hanting beside me, "Okay, let's go."

Gu Hanting retracted his gaze, his voice a little hoarse, "Aren't you going to see the waterfall?"
