Chapter 321 The Witch's Guidance

"Father, what are you saying?"

Ms. Deng was completely confused. Her whole family had been sleeping in the temple last night, and when she woke up this morning, Fatty Tiger was still sleeping next to her. There was nothing like what Fatty Tiger was talking about.

Wang Laishuan was also bewildered. He wiped his face with his hand and recounted what Pang Hu had just said:

"He said he met Niu Niu's mother, a little flying car, lots of food, grain, a bed, a table, chairs and such."

"Niu Niu's mom, little flying car?"

Wang Baoquan kept repeating these two words, and the more he thought about it, the more convinced he was that his guess was correct.

"You guys stay here and keep an eye on him, I'll be right back."

After saying that, Wang Baoquan got up and left. He wandered around the whole town, asking everyone he met where he could find a shaman who could tell fortunes.

There weren't many original inhabitants left in the town; most had fled to escape famine. After searching for a long time, he finally found out about a local woman named Granny Wang, who lived at the very back of a secluded alley nearby.

According to the information he had gathered, as soon as Wang Baoquan entered the alley, he saw a woman dressed in black coming out of the innermost house. She was wearing an oversized veil that covered her entire face.

Seeing that the person was about to pass by him, Wang Baoquan quickly chased after him and asked:

"Excuse me, are you Wang the fortune teller?"

Wang the fortune teller wasn't surprised, and stopped to ask:

"Has something happened to your grandson?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Baoquan was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out of his head. He knelt down with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly to the sorceress.

"The immortal is indeed incredibly wise. My grandson is indeed being haunted by a female ghost. Please, immortal, lend a hand and drive that female ghost away."

The fortune teller counted on her fingers, shook her head slightly, and sighed:

"It's hopeless. He's just unconscious now, but it will get worse. He's possessed by evil spirits and won't live much longer. Please leave."

With that, Granny Wang was about to leave.

In these chaotic times of war, finding someone who can see the future is extremely difficult. Wang Baoquan couldn't let her go, so he grabbed her clothes and pleaded, kneeling on his knees:

"Immortal, you are Guanyin Bodhisattva who has descended to earth to save us from suffering. Please think of another way."

They say saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda, you can't just ignore this! Just name your price, I'll agree to any conditions, as long as my grandson can be saved.”

The old woman sighed again, and after calculating with her fingers for a long time, she said:

"That female ghost originally came looking for her daughter, but unfortunately your grandson is more adorable, so she wanted to use her daughter to exchange for your grandson's life."

This female ghost is a wandering spirit, and she died unjustly. She's incredibly powerful; I'm just a sorceress, I don't have the ability to subdue her. Even if I want to make money, I also want to live. You'd better watch yourself."

After Wang the fortune teller finished speaking, she shook off Wang Baoquan's old hand and tried to run away, but he held her tightly.

"Immortal, you can't leave. You are so powerful, you must have a way to break this. I only want the solution, I don't want that female ghost's life."

Fat Tiger was Wang Baoquan's darling, how could he just watch him die? Capturing Granny Wang was capturing the hope of survival.

"Oh dear, the one who tied the knot must untie it. That female ghost's daughter is haunted by her obsession. Why don't you just send her daughter away?"

Wang Baoquan suddenly realized what was happening and stood up to leave.

“I’ll throw her away when I get back.”

Before he could even take a step, Granny Wang stopped him, warning him in a low voice:

“You’re likely to suffer a backlash if you do this. She already knows your grandson and has entered his consciousness. If her daughter doesn’t do well, your whole family won’t have a good time either.”

"What should we do?"

Wang Baoquan almost burst into tears as he slapped his left hand against his right palm. Nothing worked, nothing worked; what was he to do?

"Give her away, whoever is willing to accept her, preferably someone who will treat her well."

"Ah! This..."

As Wang Baoquan was wondering where to find such a family, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and he found that the old woman Wang had disappeared. He was stunned and stood there for a long time.

"Have we really encountered a deity?"

Muttering to himself, Wang Baoquan ran back like a madman.

**

"Get her away, quickly."

Wang Baoquan had been gone for so long, and then he rushed back in a panic. Hearing what he said, his family members stood up in surprise, but no one moved.

Although Niu Niu isn't very useful, she doesn't eat much either. When Wang Baoquan wasn't around, Deng Shi and Chen Shi tried to get her to do things, and she was quite obedient.

Anyone would like such an obedient child, and the Deng and Chen families were no exception; they were much less troublesome than Fat Tiger.

"why?"

As soon as Chen asked the question, she was met with a barrage of insults from Wang Baoquan:

"Why? Her mother has come to take Tiger's life, and you're still asking why?"

Do you want to watch your grandson die?

After being scolded, Chen dared not disobey Wang Baoquan's wishes, so she had no choice but to ask in accordance with his instructions:

Where should I send it?

Deng thought, "Such an obedient child. Ma Rulan and Wen Meijiu both came to ask for her before. No matter what their purpose was, or whether they were really related to Niu Niu, her father-in-law was unwilling to give her up. Now we can't just throw her out to starve to death, can we?"

"Where else can we send it? Of course, we'll send it to Meijiu and that girl Rulan. Don't you have any brains? Hurry up and call them."

"Hey, I'll go right away."

Upon hearing that her father-in-law was going to give Wen Meijiu, Deng Shi breathed a sigh of relief. At least Niu Niu had a good place to go, and she ran away in a flash.

A short while later, Mrs. Deng came running back, panting.

"Father, the wine can wait until tonight."

Upon hearing this, Wang Baoquan jumped up with wide eyes. His grandson was still unconscious, and he couldn't wait that long.

"What? Why doesn't she just fly to the moon?"

"Father, don't worry. Meijiu said they're busy cooking for the guards right now and don't have time. They'll come to find you when it gets cooler tonight."

When Deng went there, Wen Meijiu spoke to her in a very kind tone. Deng was anxious about her son, but she couldn't tell Wen Meijiu the truth. She only said that her father-in-law had come to terms with it and was planning to return Niu Niu to her.

Since the other party didn't know their background and had a good attitude, Deng had no reason to suspect that Wen Meijiu was doing this on purpose, so she wanted to advise Wang Baoquan to calm down.

"What are you waiting for? Is this something that can be waited for? They're more likely to cause trouble than get things done."

At first, Wang Baoquan only had suspicions, but after meeting Wang the fortune teller and seeing her disappear in front of him, he realized that this matter was of great importance.

Having never witnessed such a scene, Deng was naturally not as anxious as he was, and he felt that Deng did not care about his eldest grandson.

After scolding Deng, Wang Baoquan paced back and forth anxiously, then suddenly stared at his wife, Chen.

"What do you see me doing?"

Feeling uncomfortable under his gaze, Chen retorted.

"Go and take Niu Niu's indenture with you this time. Give it to Ru Lan, but don't tell Mei Jiu yet."

Wang Baoquan was afraid that Wen Meijiu would change her mind, so he gave the indenture to Ma Rulan. Regardless of whether Ma Rulan's claim of kinship was true or false, as long as she accepted the indenture without Wen Meijiu's permission, Niu Niu would be theirs and would have nothing to do with him anymore.

Even if that female ghost comes to haunt his grandson again, he will have an explanation to give to the gods in heaven.
