Yu Zhen is a complete novice driver. He has only obtained his driver's license for one year. Before, he only drove a small truck that sent flowers. When he drove, he was always guided by an old flower farmer. His accumulated driving experience was pitiful.
For the first time driving independently now, he is panicked.
"Don't be nervous, I will look at you."
Yu Zhen squeezed the steering wheel, not daring to move his eyes away from the road, and asked, "Can you drive?"
He thought that Yin Yan threw the car key to him because he didn't—
"No." Yin Yan replied, his tone calm and calm and undue beating.
Yu Zhenqian took a breath and decided not to talk to him again. Driving requires concentration, and he doesn't want to be distracted.
"But I can learn."
Seeing that he was not speaking, Yin Yan continued to speak, then closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair, and began to close his eyes to calm his mind. What he said and what he did were completely different.
"???"
Didn't you say that you would "look at you" and then "I can learn"
Yu Zhen couldn't help taking time to glance at him quickly, seeing that he actually leaned on the back of the chair with his eyes closed, staring silently, and then quickly returned to his senses, hurriedly flashing the turn signal, and swiping the screen with the ellipsis in his heart.
All the way out of the city cautiously, steadily and steadily, after arriving in the town, there were fewer cars and people along the road. Yu Zhen's nerves were a little loose, and he was just about to turn normally and enter the village road back to Lianhuagou Village. Seeing that an electric three-wheeler suddenly appeared on the previously empty corner ahead, there was an old man sitting on the tricycle.
He was shocked, and instinctively wanted to turn the steering wheel and step on the brakes, but suddenly he stretched out a hand to hold his hand firmly, preventing him from turning the steering wheel, and reminded: "Turn normally."
"But the front—"
"Turn it over, it's not a person, it's just a ghost."
Yu Zhen was stunned. The steering wheel didn't move, but the brakes were still stepped on. Then the body passed the tricycle that was crossing the intersection directly under his eyelids, parked diagonally on the side of the road, and turned off the fire.
Yin Yan released his hand, unfastened his seat belt, opened the door and got out of the car.
Yu Zhen repeatedly played the scene of the body taking him straight through the tricycle, but he still couldn't get his head back. It wasn't until Yin Yan opened the door on his side and the cold wind blew in that his thinking gradually returned.
"just… "
Yin Yan pressed his head to stop him from speaking, bent over to help him unfasten the seat belt, and took his hand to lead him out of the car.
The sky was completely dark, the road crossing into the village was empty, and the light of the street lamp was beating erratically, like a candlelight moved by the wind.
"There is grievance."
Yin Yan let go of Yu Zhen's hand, took a step forward, and raised his hand lightly.
The street lights flashed suddenly, the cold wind blew, and Yu Zhen was squinted. When he opened his eyes again, the figure of the tricycle reappeared at the intersection, in a strangely translucent state.
Yu Zhen took a breath and couldn't help but leaned against Yin Yan.
"The wish is not yet fulfilled. It is the lowest-level earth-bound spirit." Yin Yan put his hand into his pocket, turned sideways, and signaled Yu Zhen to come forward: "Go, this spirit body has not harmed anyone, and it is about to dissipate, so he can help him. Enter into reincarnation, otherwise he will be frightened and lost."
Earthbound spirit
After bumping into ghosts once, Yu Zhen was a little more courageous. Hearing that, he mustered up the courage to take a step forward and carefully look towards the translucent tricycle. Then, he froze after seeing the appearance of the driver in the car, and blurted out: "Li Erye?"
The originally translucent spirit body suddenly became solid after hearing his call. The driver whose face gradually became clear looked sideways, passing him as if he could not see Yin Yan, and fixed his sight. A smile appeared on Yu Zhen's face.
"It turned out to be the Taoist Yu boy, why hasn't he gone home? No car will enter the village so late, come, get in the car, and the second master will see you for a ride."
Yu Zhen didn't know many people from Lianhuagou Village, but Li Erye happened to be one of them.
Li Erye is diligent and enthusiastic. He usually grows a la carte and sells it in the town. Occasionally, he meets children in the village who come back from studying outside and take them home by the way.
Yu Zhen's Taoist temple is rather biased. The way home is different from the way other villagers enter the village. Before, when they met villagers when they came home from a holiday, other people were not willing to take him for a ride, or they didn't know him at all. Only Li Erye, every time he meets him, he will enthusiastically pull him into the car and take him back by detour. He is very nice.
But Li Erye had already passed away due to a traffic accident three years ago. When Yu Zhen learned the news, he went to the village cemetery to pay Li Erye to his grave.
Because he was an acquaintance, the fear in Yu Zhen's heart dissipated completely, replaced by a shallow sadness.
Three years later, he did not expect that Li Erye's soul was still trapped at the intersection where the accident happened and did not go to reincarnation.
"No need for Erye, I drove the car today."
Yu Zhen took the initiative to greet him, looking at the old man’s pale face different from his life, trying to show a usual smile, and asked with concern: "Second Lord, why are you stopping at the intersection so late? It’s cold and you won’t go home again. The family should be worried."
"It's not cold or cold. Today, my granddaughter comes home on holiday, and I have to wait for her. She usually saves money and will definitely not spend money to stop the car back in town, but how tired it is to walk back, she is a girl, alone at night It’s not safe either. I don’t worry about it until she waits."
Yu Zhen felt sour when he heard it, tightened his fingers, stretched out and shook the old man’s hand on the tricycle armrest, and said, “Then you don’t need to wait. Today, I just went to the town to buy rapeseeds. When I returned to the village, I ran into your granddaughter and brought her home safely."
"Already go home?"
"Yes, I have gone home."
Li Erye's expression was dazed for a moment, and then he showed a relieved smile. His pale complexion slowly returned to his former appearance, but his figure became weaker and weaker, and his voice became faint.
"Just go home, just go home, old man, I'm relieved... Boy Yu, go back soon, it's cold, don't worry about your grandpa."
The cold touch of the palm body slowly disappeared, the shadow of the tricycle completely faded away, and a few golden lights floated, swirling and drifting into his eyebrows, causing his forehead to become windless.
"Let's go, the shackles are gone, the bad news is coming soon."
Yin Yan didn't know when he walked behind him, took him by the shoulders and led him to the side of the car, stuffed it into the back seat of the car, then opened the driver's door, got into the car and ignited skillfully, and started on the road.
The misty bell was overwhelmed by the sound of the car starting, Yu Zhen recovered from her little emotions, touched the forehead that still had a trace of hotness, and glanced over the receding scenery outside the car window, and then she was taken aback and sat up. Grabbing the back of the driver's seat, he squatted and asked: "You, didn't you say you can't drive?"
"Ok."
Yin Yan nodded and continued to accelerate. Miraculously, he drove on the uneven dirt road with a sense of stability as if he was pressing a highway, and replied: "I didn't know it before. I just learned it and it will be done."
just
"Where did you go to study?"
"Go to memory."
"???"
He returned to the Taoist temple in a rush all the way, and Yu Zhen grabbed the handrail on the top of the vehicle, completely messed up in the wind.
Good, fast, and steady, directly comparing his driving skills to scum.
"arrive."
Yin Yan parked the car steadily at the door of the Taoist Temple, and looked back at the way he was holding the handrails with a calm face.
"..."
Yu Zhen glanced at his hand holding the handrail, and then at Yin Yan's back figure that was gradually being blocked by the door panel, and put his hand back with a slight embarrassment and guilty conscience.
With Yin Yan's smooth driving skills, his act of grasping the handrail is really superfluous and full of distrust of the driver.
Although Yin Yan still had a calm look just now, judging from his behavior of getting out of the car and entering the Taoist temple alone without greeting, he should be angry.
The person who has always been tolerant and gentle suddenly sent out an angry signal, and Yu Zhen was a little at a loss and a little panicked.
Now the two are grasshoppers on the same rope. In the subconscious, Yu Zhen, who has just lost her last relative in this world, has invisibly placed a kind of family-like affection on Yin Yan.
Yu Zhen has always been nervous and accommodating to his family.
Yin Yan, who had entered the Taoist temple first, had already turned on the lights in the Taoist temple in advance to prevent Yu Zhen from discrediting and falling.
However, Yu Zhen didn't realize this, and hurried into the kitchen, awkwardly explained: "Yin Yan, I don't doubt your driving skills. Grasping the handrail is just a subconscious reflection. I..."
Yin Yan turned around and stuffed the boiling water bottle into his hand, and said, "I know, go to wash, and then go to bed. The power you absorb needs to be digested."
Yu Zhen caught the boiling water bottle, really couldn't see his emotions from his expression, and asked carefully; "Then, are you still angry?"
"Like a puppy."
"what?"
"The way you were just now."
…
……
Yu Zhen raised his eyebrows and walked out of the kitchen without looking back, holding the water bottle.
When Yin Yan packed up and entered the room, Yu Zhen was already lying on the bed facing the wall.
The old bed was not big, it was only 1.5 meters wide. Now there are two pillows and two quilts on both ends, and there is a thick blanket on the quilt.
Yin Yan remembered that the pillows on this bed were placed side by side during the day. Obviously, the person who made the bed did not want to communicate too much with the other person who slept with him, so he deliberately made the bed like this.
He didn't say anything, turned off the light, lay down in the empty quilt very interestingly, and closed his eyes.
In a quiet rural night, there was only the sound of the branches being swayed by the wind. Yu Zhen suddenly opened his eyes and found that the sun was shining outside, and he was sitting on the threshold of the front house of the Taoist temple, in front of him was grandpa kneeling and throwing copper coins in front of the statue of Zushiye. Silhouette.
"grandfather?"
He was puzzled, thinking about getting up, but found that he couldn't move.
"Xiaozhen, you're all right, grandpa should go now."
The old man didn't look back, but the action of throwing coins in his hand stopped.
"grandfather?"
Yu Zhen felt tight, faintly aware of something, struggling to get up to contact the old man.
"This Taoist temple has been kept for so long by me, and it's time to get free." The old man sighed, and suddenly bowed his head to the statue of the ancestor, chanting unintelligible scriptures in a low voice, and then his voice gradually Low, the golden light rises, and everything around it begins to fade.
"grandfather!"
"Xiaozhen, go enjoy the blessing, in the next life, grandpa will continue to tell you stories."
Yu Zhen had a terrible dream. In the dream, the statue of Patriarch enshrined in Taoist Temple suddenly turned into a golden light and flew into the sky, and then everything in Taoist Temple began to decay and age.
The wall peeled off, the bricks and tiles broke, and the building became ruins in an instant, and Grandpa Yu was in this ruin, and the golden light that followed the deity's transformation disappeared.
When the dream was over, he held back tears and opened his eyes, and found that he was lying on the back seat of the car wrapped in a blanket, and the place in front of the car was supposed to be a Taoist temple, which was already in ruins at this time.
The first ray of sunlight fell in the morning, Yin Yan turned around in front of the ruins, looked at him through the car window, and calmly said: "Yu Zhen, you have broken the dust here. It's time to leave."
