Mistaking a horror game for a romance novel, he unexpectedly became a legend.
Chapter 240 Making trouble
People kept coming to pay their respects in the mourning hall. Lu Xiao was dragged over by Song Yi. The thought of what he was about to do made him want to run away.
Zhou Linnan sat down with his mother in his arms, and his mother's tears never stopped.
Even now, Zhou's mother cannot accept the fact that her son is dead. Zhou Xi was very obedient from childhood to adulthood, had good grades, and was handsome. The couple had a son late in life, and the entire Zhou family was very satisfied with this child. But how could such an accident happen?
Zhou's mother's eyes were sore and her vision was becoming blurry. Seeing his wife's condition, Zhou's father was afraid that she couldn't hold on any longer and wanted to take her downstairs to rest.
Suddenly a sound came from the entrance of the mourning hall, which startled Zhou's father and mother.
Following Song Yi's suggestion, Lu Xiao pretended to "go crazy".
Although Lu Xiao was unwilling, his performance was quite good. At this moment, Lu Xiao's eyes were red. He rushed into the mourning hall, one hand on his neck, and said to Zhou's father and mother:
"Mom and Dad, help me, I can't breathe."
Lu Xiao kept repeating this sentence, and for a moment, his behavior stunned everyone in the room, even Zhou's mother forgot to cry.
Song Yi, suppressing a laugh, quickly came over and grabbed Lu Xiao's wildly flailing hands, feigning concern:
"Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao, what's wrong with you? You were fine just now, how did you suddenly go crazy?"
Lu Xiao's eyes were red, and it was clear that something was wrong with him. He even called Zhou's parents "Mom," which immediately excited Zhou's mother, who wondered if her son had returned.
Lu Xiao struggled in Song Yi's arms, repeating that sentence over and over again, but his heart was in agony. Please, just end this already!
Zhou's mother: "Xiao Xi, is it Xiao Xi?"
"Is that you? Mom missed you so much."
When Zhou's mother tried to go up, Zhou's father stopped her, fearing that Lu Xiao would hurt her.
Lu Xiao stretched out his hand towards Zhou's mother.
Song Yi: "Uncle Zhou, Lu Xiao's condition is not right. Don't you have a geomancer in your family? Why don't you ask him to come and take a look? Could it really be that Xiao Xi has returned?"
Zhou's father and the others believed in this, and as soon as they heard Song Yi say this, they immediately asked the steward, Lao Liu, to go find someone.
Old Liu didn't want to go; today was very important for his son. Chen Wenjie was in the room watching the formation, making sure nothing went wrong.
Old Liu: "Mr. Lu seems to be suffering from some kind of illness. We have a doctor at home, so why don't we have him come and take a look?"
After Lao Liu finished speaking, without waiting for Zhou Linnan's consent, he wanted to take Lu Xiao away on his own initiative. Song Yi quietly patted Lu Xiao on the back, and Lu Xiao shouted again:
"I don't want to see a doctor, Mom and Dad, please save me, I'm suffocating, don't let them take me away."
As a desperate mother who had lost her son, Zhou's mother was unwilling to give up as long as there was even the slightest hope.
She was so excited that she could barely stand, holding onto Zhou Linnan's leg.
"Old Zhou, our son is back."
Lu Xiao's condition was too obvious; his blood-red eyes made people think of ghosts and gods.
If it really was his own son, how could Zhou Linnan bear to abandon him?
"Old Liu, go and invite Mr. Chen over."
Butler Liu was about to speak when Zhou Linnan suddenly shouted at him, "Hurry up and go!"
Zhou Linnan got angry, and he couldn't go against him anymore, so Lao Liu immediately went to ask someone for help.
Song Yi restrained Lu Xiao's hands, but hid behind Lu Xiao, trying hard to suppress her laughter. Lu Xiao's acting skills were a bit worse than hers, but they were good enough.
Chen Wenjie guarded the formation inside the house. This formation was important not only to Liu Dong and his group, but also to himself.
Such magic violates natural law, and if it fails, one will suffer a backlash.
The voice of the butler, Old Liu, came from the doorway. Chen Wenjie frowned and opened the door:
"Didn't I tell you not to bother me unnecessarily?"
Old Liu: "I didn't want to either. There's a man in the mourning hall who seems to be possessed by something. He's calling Zhou Linnan 'Dad.' Zhou Linnan wants you to go over there."
Chen Wenjie: "What possessed you?"
Old Liu: "Yes, that man's eyes were bloodshot. Could it be Zhou Xi coming back?"
After all, he had done something wrong, so Lao Liu was still a little worried.
Chen Wenjie sneered: "Although Zhou Xi is lying in a coffin, he is not dead yet. How could he possibly be back? Could it be someone pretending to be crazy?"
Old Liu: "He doesn't look like that to me."
Old Liu wouldn't lie to him, which piqued Chen Wenjie's interest. He turned around, closed the door, and instructed his junior disciples not to allow anyone to enter the room before following Old Liu.
As soon as they left, Zhou Yuyan went inside and swapped the positions of the two little figures inside the formation.
The golden energy that had been slowly flowing from Zhou Xi to Liu Dong in the air stopped, and there was even a phenomenon of it flowing back.
Liu Dong was refilling the teacups for the guests. He was feeling more and more comfortable as he exercised, but suddenly he felt a wave of fatigue. This feeling was very unpleasant, and Liu Dong wondered if he had been working too much.
Inside the mourning hall, the bloodshot in Lu Xiao's eyes slowly faded. Chen Wenjie arrived, and Zhou's mother immediately rushed over, saying:
"Master, look, isn't this my son back?"
Chen Wenjie looked at Lu Xiao, but couldn't see anything on him at all. Yet, Lu Xiao's current appearance was very suspicious, and he probably really did have a mental illness.
Chen Wenjie: "Mrs. Zhou, he has nothing on him, so it's probably a real illness. Why don't we have a doctor come and take a look?"
Song Yi questioned, "Huh? Mr. Chen, are you sure? My brother's condition is very strange."
Chen Wenjie looked at the young man who was questioning him, and his arrogant attitude became even more pronounced:
"I have the third eye; I can't possibly be wrong."
As they were talking, Lu Xiao went mad again, and he said to Zhou's parents:
"Dad, Mom, I can't breathe in the coffin. Can you open it and let me out?"
Zhou's mother now only believes in her son: "Xiao Xi, hit him, and I'll have someone open the coffin right now."
Upon hearing that they were going to open the coffin, Chen Wenjie and Lao Liu's expressions changed.
When Zhou's mother wanted to have the coffin opened, Chen Wenjie was the first to stop her:
“No, I’m helping Young Master Zhou clear his karmic obstacles after his accident, so this problem can’t be solved.”
Song Yi: "Zhou Xi has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child. He also does charity work with Uncle Zhou. What karmic obstacles does he need to overcome?"
Chen Wenjie was just making things up on the spot. He had done similar things many times before, and he could just make up any excuse without anyone questioning him.
But that was before he met Song Yi!
Song Yi: "What if Young Master Zhou wants to come out on his own?"
Chen Wenjie: "Impossible. If it were really the young master, wouldn't I have sensed it?"
There's still morning dew, purple wood chips, and I definitely have money in my bank account.
