Chapter 115 Her Son
There was also an acquaintance among the people who came from Zixiao Sect, Chi Xu, whom she had met once before.
Because they both encountered the black market, they shared a common secret, and their relationship was somewhat tacit and subtle.
After staying in the old site of Linjia Village for a few more days, almost all the Qi training cultivators had left, leaving only dozens of people still waiting.
At night, the moon is high in the sky.
Perhaps it is because night is yin, the dead air is always more active.
However, the deathly aura here is far less dense than that in Sunset Plain. With careful precautions, the impact on cultivators can be almost negligible.
Although monks do not need to restore their physical strength through sleep every night like ordinary people, they will inevitably feel relaxed at night when they have such free time.
At this moment, many people were sitting cross-legged on the ground with their eyes closed.
Cheng Shuyan was just like everyone else, recuperating, when the surroundings suddenly became bustling.
The bustling sound came into my ears, full of the flavor of the city life.
She felt something was wrong and when she opened her eyes she saw an unexpected sight.
At this moment, the sun was shining brightly in the sky and it was no longer night. The monks around had completely disappeared.
She woke up on a wooden bed with a straw mat and a simple quilt in a room made of mud walls.
She got up from the bed and walked around the room, and found that it was just an ordinary house. The house was very simply decorated with only a table with a kettle and a few ordinary porcelain bowls on it.
The environment looked similar to that of her Cheng family in Shiqiao Village, just an ordinary mortal house.
Not only was the sudden appearance of the house illogical, but strangely, she herself had become a mortal, without any cultivation at all.
Cheng Shuyan looked down and found that he was dressed completely like a woman, with rough hands covered with traces of labor.
Such families usually do not have things like bronze mirrors. She walked into the outer woodshed and found a jar of water inside.
She looked down and saw that what was reflected in the water was not her face, but a completely unfamiliar woman!
This is not right!
Her head suddenly felt a little confused, and she couldn't understand why she suddenly became like this.
Before she could figure out what was happening, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by a woman's scream.
"Mrs. Zhang, are you home?"
Cheng Shuyan hurried to the yard and opened the door, only to see a younger woman standing at the door, her hand still raised in the air as if to knock on the door.
Information about this woman suddenly emerged in Cheng Shuyan's mind.
"Sister Li, what's wrong?" Cheng Shuyan blurted out without thinking the moment he saw her.
"What's wrong?" The woman gave her a strange look. "Didn't the village chief say that every household had to go to the ancestral hall to discuss matters today? Everyone in the village is here, except you. So the village chief asked me to come and see what's going on."
Cheng Shuyan suddenly had another memory in his mind. Yesterday, the village chief asked his grandson to go door to door to inform everyone about today's meeting.
"Yes, yes! I remember now. I have to go to the ancestral hall today. I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but my brain just can't remember anything!"
She hurried out, closed the door, and followed the woman to the ancestral hall.
On the way, she suddenly had some questions, so she asked the woman, "Sister Li, didn't my husband go?"
"Your husband?" The woman's eyes were even more suspicious, as if she had seen a ghost: "Mrs. Zhang, don't be really confused, didn't your husband die a long time ago?"
Died a long time ago?
Yes, he had died a long time ago. Lin Liu died in the autumn four years ago. He was killed by a tiger while hunting in the mountains. It was she and the villagers who found his body.
Cheng Shuyan thought of this past event, nodded in a daze, and said nothing more.
When the two arrived at the ancestral hall, they saw that it was full of people, and almost all the villagers had come.
She looked at them one by one, and information about these people emerged in her mind.
"Aunt Zhang, you are so forgetful! The whole village is waiting for you."
A young girl saw her rushing over and said something in a sarcastic tone.
The girl's name is Lin Zhen, and she is her niece.
Now, a middle-aged man in front of the girl frowned and stopped Lin Zhen: "Okay, Zhen girl, it's not easy for your Aunt Zhang to be alone, so stop talking."
She looked at the man named Lin Shao who was speaking and always felt that he was somewhat familiar.
But everyone here made her feel familiar. Her head was a little dizzy, and she couldn't understand why this person made her feel so special and familiar.
Many people in the ancestral hall were whispering, and the scene seemed a bit chaotic.
The village chief standing in the front cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention.
"Everyone, stop for a moment. I've called everyone here today, and I'm sure you've all guessed what it is.
Yesterday morning, a holy river appeared faintly from the horizon, and the Lin family's bloodline also felt the call of the holy river. It seems that the person predicted by the ancestor has appeared.
Our Lin family is finally about to be revived! It is time to let everyone in the Thousand Spirit Realm know that the Lin family of ten thousand years ago was not wiped out, and we still live under this sky! "
"Lin!"
"Lin!"
"Lin!"
As the village chief finished speaking, a burst of high-pitched and surging voices suddenly rang out in the ancestral hall.
Everyone was shouting "Lin", and Cheng Shuyan felt his thoughts became more confused and he had no ability to think at all.
The village chief raised his hand to stop the crowd, then turned his gaze to her and asked, "Lin Liu, you are not of the Lin family's bloodline, so I guess you haven't felt any strange phenomena. So, tell me, what did your son say to you yesterday?"
From Lin Liu’s family?
No, that's not right!
"I'm not from Lin Liu's family, I'm not Mrs. Zhang, I'm Cheng Shu..."
She suddenly couldn't remember who she was.
Cheng Shuyan held her head tightly with both hands, a look of pain on her face. She felt a splitting headache, as if something was disappearing.
"Mrs. Zhang, what's wrong with you?" The woman who brought her over asked with concern when she saw this.
"Oh, I think she has gone crazy! Or she is deliberately pretending to be crazy here!" Lin Zhen disliked her very much and said sarcastically.
The village chief also frowned, his expression displeased: "Mr. Lin, stop your nonsense! Today we are discussing the future of our clan. No matter how much you looked down on us peasants in the past, you shouldn't be so presumptuous today!"
Mrs. Zhang...
Aunt Zhang...
Lin Liu's...
These names entered her mind one by one from her ears, and gradually, Cheng Shuyan's eyes began to become confused.
"Yes, I'm from Lin Liu's family..." She muttered to herself in a trance.
"Village Chief, Zhier went to the academy yesterday, and I didn't see him."
She remembered everything. Her name was Zhang Yining. She was originally the daughter of a wealthy businessman in the city. Later, her family fell into poverty. She was rescued by Lin Liu by chance, and she married Lin Liu and raised his children from then on.
Her son's name is Lin Zhi.
