Chapter 664 The young widow who inherited her dead husband’s estate (4)

The young widow who inherited her dead husband's estate (XIV)

Dong Dafu didn't care about what happened that night. After eating those two large boxes of fried noodles, his blood sugar level rose immediately, and he fell asleep immediately accompanied by the smell of soap after taking a shower.

As a result, just two days later, Dong Dafu unexpectedly heard gossip related to this matter.

"Hey, have you heard? Recently it seems that the Ministry of Agriculture or the Ministry of Forestry, anyway, there is some department hanging around our area every night. Some people say that it seems that some important animal has been lost or something. I heard that a first-class protected animal imported from abroad accidentally ran away, and they are looking for it everywhere."

Dong Dafu bought two vegetarian cold skin rolls for five yuan early in the morning and was eating them when he heard a few friends who were moving goods chatting.

He ate the rest of the cold noodle roll in a few bites, then took a few gulps from the large thermos he had bought specially before he went over and handed each person a cigarette.

"What are you guys talking about? I'll listen too."

The guys who were moving the goods were all familiar with him. They put their cigarettes behind their ears and said, "I'm just gossiping. I heard my wife telling my mom at home that my mom always likes to go downstairs to join in the fun after dinner. She heard it from others, and it's true."

Dong Dafu didn't hear it clearly just now. "What was lost? A first-class protected animal? How can this thing be lost?"

"Ah, why not? Wasn't there a news report last year about a tiger that ran away on its own and was later tracked down?"

The guy was unloading the goods while talking, and Dong Dafu was very envious of his enthusiasm.

However, he knew that although these people earned at least 500 yuan a day, they were all hard laborers.

If I get hurt one day, I will have no income, and I dare not get sick. I have hidden injuries all over my body. When I am over 50, I am basically full of pains. It is like I am earning money by using my body in advance.

"Then this isn't a big deal, right?"

Dong Dafu felt that this was not a big news. It was just an animal that was lost. Even if it was from a national or second-class animal, it had nothing to do with ordinary people like them.

When the buddy heard this, his eyes rolled around and he looked around before speaking in a low voice.

"You don't know this, right? If it was just a lost animal, my mother would have been well-informed and wouldn't have listened to it. The key point is that she heard that this lost animal was seen by someone when he came home from get off work at night."

When he did this, an inexplicable atmosphere arose.

Dong Dafu also became interested. "What do you mean? Is this animal of any significance?"

The man clicked his tongue a few times, lowering his voice.

"Isn't it a bit mysterious? I heard from my mom that more than one person saw it in that area. They said it was a fairy-like animal that was glowing. It was very conspicuous when it ran past at night. But so many people said they only saw white light. If you ask what kind of animal it is, no one can see it clearly. Don't you think it's mysterious?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guys who had been listening to his gossip suddenly lost interest, and some even said something disdainful of him.

"You are talking nonsense. We haven't believed in this stuff for 800 years. Why do you and your mother still believe in it?"

"That's right. Now people say that in the scientific age, we must be scientific."

"It's boring. Let's work. Let's finish early and go home early."

Several people dispersed in a hurry, and the guy didn't think much when he saw Dong Dafu staying.

He was actually a little skeptical about this matter, because his mother was indeed a bit superstitious, but it was not surprising that all elderly people were like this.

He took down the cigarette, took a deep puff, and continued to work.

Dong Dafu stood there, breaking out in a cold sweat in broad daylight.

Others didn't know that he had actually seen the white light with his own eyes. Was it an animal?

Dong Dafu tried hard to recall, but was horrified to find that he couldn't remember what the thing looked like.

His heart suddenly felt like it was thrown into ice water and soaked, feeling very cold.

"You mean you might have come across something unclean?"

Song Ning was also surprised when he received Dong Dafu's call. After thinking about it, he told Dong Dafu about his recent illusion that there was someone around him.

When Dong Dafu heard this, he let out a strange cry.

"Hey buddy, don't scare me!"

Song Ning pursed her lips and said, "I do have this feeling, but I can't say for sure whether it is true or not."

Recently he always felt that he didn't know whether it was because he had moved to the countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, that his health had improved a lot.

A while ago, he collapsed from exhaustion after a day of planting seedlings. His arms and legs were neither arms nor legs.

But in the past two days, he thought there might still be mushrooms on the mountain, so he went up the mountain twice to look for mushrooms. Not only did he find one almost every time, he can even remember what kind of mushrooms he dug and in which locations. His brain is so good that even he is afraid of it.

After coming down the mountain, he would come back to tend to the fields and feed the chickens and ducks, check on the fish in the fish pond, go upstairs from time to time to turn over the mushrooms that were drying in the sun, and clean the front and back yards.

After a whole day's work, Song Ning felt that he was not as tired as before.

In general, he felt that his body had become lighter and more agile, and his eyes and ears were sharper. Sometimes he could even feel that the two watchtower geese at home were approaching, which made him pay more attention to his vague feeling.

"Hiss, if that's what you mean, does that really exist in this world?"

Dong Dafu was originally a staunch materialist, but he couldn't help but see what he really saw that night.

Now that these two things happened at the same time, he began to waver.

Song Ning couldn't explain what was going on, but they could both feel the uneasy feeling in each other's hearts even through the phone.

Dong Dafu still has a lot of crooked ideas. "Fortunately, mine is nothing serious. I just happened to see it. If you really think something is wrong, I remember that I checked last time and there is a Taoist temple in Gu County that is quite famous. Why don't you go there to pray and ask for a talisman or something?"

Even if nothing happened, I'd just give myself some peace of mind.

Song Ning was moved when he heard this.

It seems like it’s okay?

Dong Dafu also said, "If you pray for a talisman that works, please bring one for me so that I can take it with me when I go to your place to get the dried mushrooms. I am a little nervous now after hearing about that. Whether I sleep with fear or with peace of mind in the future depends on you."

Song Ning found it funny and agreed immediately.

"Okay, I'll check it out in the next two days and then go over to take a look. If you really want to solve the problem, you don't have to come over specially, I can just send it over together."

Dong Dafu refused. "No, I will have to go to your place to breathe in the fragrance of the earth. I work in this city every day and the smell has become so strong that I need to go to your place to get rid of it."
