"...It's okay, old man, isn't this all in the past, is it in the past?"
The people next to him were afraid that the old man's mood would be affected, so he quickly comforted him,
"Yeah, it's in the past, it's in the past... Now you don't have to be hungry anymore, and you don't need to wear a piece of clothing in turn... Sorry, I have a bad memory, I forgot that you young people don't like to hear These old things."
"No, old man, we like to hear, we like to hear what you always say."
"Really? Haha...cough cough cough...you little fellows are good at coaxing people."
The old man smiled and coughed twice, his face became more energetic, but a little sickly rosy.
Seeing this, the people sitting next to him couldn't help but look a little worried, but no one made a sound, only those who were close helped stroke the old man's chest.
"...I'm sorry, guys, I might spoil your interest. Xiaoyu, push me to go to the bathroom, I'm going to trouble you again, I don't know why, I always want to go to the bathroom... ..."
Hearing this, the worried expressions on the faces of the people sitting next to him became more and more obvious, but no one spoke.
The young man pushing the old man responded first, and then prepared to push the old man to the toilet.
"Mr. Xu,"
At this moment, Lian Ge stepped forward again,
"Huh? Master Lian?"
The old man raised his head and looked at Lian Ge with a little doubt in his eyes.
"Mr. Xu, can I talk to you alone?"
Lian Ge looked at the old man's unusually energetic and ruddy complexion, and asked calmly.
"It's definitely possible. I originally planned to talk to the real person later." The old man replied with a smile,
"However, people have three urgencies, can you let the old man go to the toilet and talk again when I come back?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the old man, didn't answer, and shook his head.
Seeing this, the old man paused, stared at Lian Ge with some cloudy eyes, then turned his head and said to the person beside him,
"You guys go to the side to chat for a while, Xiaoyu, you go to rest too, I will have a conversation with the real person alone."
Hearing the sound, although everyone was a little puzzled, they still followed the old man's words and got up and walked away.
After everyone moved away, the old man in the wheelchair looked at Lian Ge again,
"Reverend Lian, do you know what you need to tell the old man?"

in the courtyard.
It was still noisy and lively, and the guests gathered and chatted.
But from the corner of their eyes, many people glanced at a quieter area in the courtyard from time to time, paying attention to it.
……
In quieter areas,
After the old man let the others leave, only Qi and Lian Ge remained in the area.
Looking at Mr. Xu sitting in the wheelchair, Lian Ge stretched out his hand and pushed him to the dining table again, and then sat down beside him,
"Mr. Xu, you are dying."
Lian Ge looked at the old man and said calmly.
Hearing this, the old man was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile:
"I know, and I think most people should."
"Old man, you still have less than an hour." Lian Ge looked at the old man and continued.
Hearing this, the old man was silent, neither refuted nor angry,
After a long time, he spoke again and said:
"Then it seems... I can't attend this old man's wedding. Don't add bad luck to people on their big day. It's a pity. I wanted to see that brat from the Wang family get married..."
The old man shook his head, there was only some regret in his eyes, but he didn't have the slightest fear of facing death.
Lian Ge watched the change in the old man's expression,
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge looked into the distance and continued:
"You can still attend the wedding. I can force Mr. Xu to stay for half a day."
Hearing this, the old man had some doubts in his eyes,
"Renren Lian, I believe you are a true cultivator, otherwise Taoist Chen would not respect you so much. It's just for no reason. Why do you want to help me, a bad old man?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge turned his head, looked at the old man in the wheelchair, smiled slightly,
"It's a deal. Mr. Xu will give me a reward, and I will help you stay in the human world for half a day."
Hearing this, the old man stared at Lian Ge, sized him up with cloudy eyes, and then said with a smile:
"Just take whatever you want."
Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head,
"The reward is three shrapnel, 58 lives, and the three shrapnel must be embedded in the chest, abdomen, and shoulder respectively. But haven't you already paid the reward, old man?"
Lian Ge looked at the old man, smiled slightly and said.
Hearing this, the old man looked at Lian Ge and smiled.
"Old man, get ready and try to concentrate."
The smile faded, Lian Ge turned serious, and at the same time drove the mana in his body, and said to the old man.
Hearing this, the old man nodded and closed his eyes slightly.
Lian Ge stared at the soul in the old man's body with his heavenly eyes, and using his magic power, flicked his fingers, and used a spell in the "Elementary Spells" on the old man.
"Decree from the 120th generation of the Lian family, gather Yin and lock the soul!"
Accompanied by a low voice that only two people nearby could hear, the spell was applied to the old man,
In an instant, from the perspective of Lian Ge Tianyan, the soul in the old man's body seemed to be tightly wrapped and sealed in the body by a layer of barriers, and the soul was temporarily stabilized.
"Old sir, that's enough." Lian Ge withdrew his hand and said at the same time.
Hearing this, the old man opened his eyes again,
"Hey, Master Lian, I seem to feel more refreshed." The old man moved his hands and said.
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge glanced at the old man, then turned his gaze to the distance,
"Old Mr. Xu, I have temporarily sealed your soul in your body. This will force your body and soul to unite and create some illusions, but this will not change the state of your body itself. In other words, your body will still be in accordance with It is expected to collapse step by step, and when this technique loses its effect, your soul will leave the body very quickly."
"This is enough, old man, I am very satisfied." The old man replied with a smile.
"Mr. Xu, you still have half a day. If you have anything to confess, just confess, and if you want to do anything, just do it. I won't waste your time, old man."
Lian Ge said, stood up from the seat again,
"Okay, thank you, Master Lian." The old man stood up tremblingly and reluctantly said.
Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded, then turned and walked away.
At the same time,
The courtyard had been paying attention to the people here, and when they saw the old man stand up from the wheelchair, they immediately rushed over.
"...Old man, be careful...are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay..."
Hearing the sound of the old man talking with the crowd behind him, Lian Ge avoided the crowd and walked to the other side of the courtyard.
……
"Master Lian, this is..."
On the other side of the courtyard, Chen Luodao noticed that Lian Ge was coming, and immediately greeted him, then looked at the old man Xu who was surrounded by everyone in the courtyard,
"Then why did the old man stand up?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge glanced at the old man in the courtyard, turned back to look at Chen Luodao, shook his head slightly,
"It's just a flashback."
Hearing this, Chen Luodao sighed slightly,
"Pity……"
Hearing the sound, Lian Ge just glanced at Chen Luodao and didn't answer.
Turning around, Lian Ge sat down again at the table next to him.
……
Time passed slowly.
The layout of the wedding scene became more and more perfect, and more and more guests came.
Although many people were worried about Mr. Xu's condition, the wedding was still going on in an orderly manner.
From the time when the bride was picked up by the welcoming team, to the sound of the wedding march, and the opening of the banquet, it was moving forward step by step.
After Lian Ge gave the old man a spell to stay for half a day, he didn't go over to communicate with the old man too much.
Like a normal wedding banquet, Lian Ge randomly found a table and sat down, eating food and watching the wedding ceremony.
As for the rest of the people, after the old man gave the new couple some energy to witness the marriage, although they were still worried about the old man's physical condition, they were also affected by the festive atmosphere of the wedding scene.
The courtyard gradually became lively, and everyone ate and drank, as if it was no different from a normal wedding.
at last,
After the bride and groom toasted the guests at the table, the wedding banquet gradually came to an end.
The guests gradually left the table, and the courtyard gradually returned to silence, with only a few drinkers still dealing with the leftovers on the table.
After Mr. Xu left, Lian Ge got up and left the banquet, and stepped out of the courtyard.
……
outside the yard,
From time to time, people who left stepped out of the yard, and several children were running around holding balloons from the wedding scene at the gate of the yard.
Lian Ge slightly stamped his feet outside the courtyard, looking at Chen Luodao's master and apprentice who also followed him out of the courtyard,
"Renren Lian, should we look back at this moment or..." Chen Luodao noticed Lian Ge's gaze, and asked proactively,
"Chen Daochang, I still have some things to do, so you don't have to wait for me." Lian Ge replied.
"That's alright, Master Lian, Xiaoxuan and I will go back to the temple first." Chen Luodao didn't hesitate.
Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled and nodded.
……
After watching Chen Luodao's master and apprentice disappear from sight, Lian Ge looked away,
After gesturing slightly to the officials of the underworld who were still waiting at the entrance of the courtyard, Lian Ge moved away and walked straight to the other side of the village.
After a while,
On the other side of the village, Mr. Xu's house.
Compared with the western-style villas of other houses in the village, the house of Mr. Xu, the old village chief, seemed much simpler.
It's just a front yard without walls, plus a few one-story bungalows.
Leading a few civil servants of the underworld to the front of Mr. Xu's house, Lian Ge slightly stamped his feet, glanced at the scene in front of him, and then looked away.
After casting a small spell of 'invisibility' on himself to weaken the sense of existence, Lian Ge followed several people who came from all over the village and stepped into the home of Mr. Xu.
