What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

This is her unique skill; there shouldn't be anyone else in the world who could learn it.

Skilled psychics usually have one or two unique abilities.

"After watching a lot, I learned a little bit, just a little bit."

An Chen put on an innocent and harmless expression.

"..."

Jiuge is having an existential crisis.

"Waaaaah, my head hurts so much. Oh no! My vegetables fell on the floor."

Once he regained his senses, the little dog Egg got up from the ground, large tears streaming down his face.

......

After calming the puppy down, the sun had already disappeared from sight.

Only the last rays of sunlight illuminated the earth.

Jiuge remained silent, her expression not very pleasant.

An Chen scratched his head, beginning to reflect on whether he should have revealed his abilities.

The puppy Egg had led the two to the residential area.

The people in Gouziwan all live in earthen buildings.

The kind that's covered with dirt and bricks, very few of those houses have painted walls.

In the most dilapidated areas, the houses have no roofs; they are simply covered with thick thatch. When it rains, it will definitely rain heavily on top and lightly on the bottom.

Jiuge has only seen houses like this in very old pictures online.

Seeing the real thing for the first time, she was quite shocked.

“There are people living in places like this now,” An Chen whispered in his ear.

Although the country is working very hard, there are still some corners that have not been fully taken care of, where many people still don't have enough to eat.

Some children are even abandoned by adults after birth because they cannot afford to raise them.

"?"

Jiuge's mouth opened slightly, her expression one of disbelief.

I never imagined that there would still be such ignorant people in modern society.

Thinking about it this way, she clenched her fist.

......

Along the way, the spirits suddenly stopped showing any signs of evil spirits after sunset.

When they arrived at the door of several small houses, there were even enthusiastic elderly people sitting on the steps drying their food, who greeted Jiuge and Anchen.

On the road, several children were playing a game called hopscotch.

They drew a few small squares with bricks, and the boys and girls, who hadn't even grown their hair yet, lined up and jumped one by one.

Little Dog Egg looked like he really wanted to jump, but after looking at An Chen and Jiu Ge, and thinking about his grandparents at home, he hesitated.

"Give me the basket, go play, just don't be late for getting home." An Chen took the basket off him and stepped aside with Jiu Ge.

The woman washing clothes had already reached her doorstep.

When she saw An Chen and Jiu Ge, her expression became somewhat subtle.

That look in his eyes was hard to tell whether it was doubt or panic.

"You woman, come in here!" The door opened, and a strong man grabbed the woman washing clothes and pulled her inside.

"No, I don't have it... Oh, I have Haohao Western Medicine..."

Chapter 78 The World Is About to Change

As the man dragged the woman doing laundry inside, he muttered, "Don't look at other men, you shameless bastard!"

Jiu Ge's fist hardened, and An Chen grabbed her arm.

"Don't be impatient, you'll see."

There was no need for Jiuge to make a move; nearby farmers who had returned had already rushed forward.

Jiuge breathed a sigh of relief, and An Chen smiled.

Before long, the well-behaved little dog Egg returned.

"Let's go, we'll get yelled at if we stay any later."

He took the basket from An Chen's hand and put it back on his back.

The little dog, Egg, stopped next to a relatively large house.

“This is it, this is my home.” He pointed to the gate, then to the old man staring blankly at the sky.

"This is my grandma. Like the pretty lady's husband, she's also had some brain problems these past few days." Little Dog Egg sighed, his expression turning melancholy.

Grandma was perfectly fine last month, but now she's suddenly like this...

Fortunately, the villagers are familiar with each other and work together, so there is basically no need to worry about getting lost.

Upon hearing what Little Dog Egg said, An Chen suddenly felt his blood pressure rise.

It's as if he actually has an intellectual disability...

Jiuge glanced at An Chen with sympathy, then looked with concern at the white-haired old woman who was staring blankly at the sky.

She secretly felt pleased that An Chen was being treated as her husband.

As for the rest, who cares!

Even if An Chen isn't very smart, it doesn't matter, Jiu Ge won't mind.

"Did he suddenly develop Alzheimer's disease in the last few days?"

With a rare smile on her face, Jiu Ge squatted down to ask the little dog Egg a question.

"Yes, it's been these past few days. He's started talking nonsense and keeps staring at the sky."

The puppy sat down on the ground and started imitating its grandmother.

As darkness fell, he began to contemplate his next move.

"The illusion is about to change, it's almost the Ghost Festival, they're coming." Little Dog Egg said in a low voice, looking at the sky.

An Chen and Jiu Ge's expressions changed upon hearing this.

The Jingcheng War began in winter, and the invaders' massacre could not possibly have taken place during the Ghost Festival.

If the old lady says this, it means she is not senile, but has become aware of the reality of the situation.

"Things are about to become unstable; there are more and more variables." Little Dog Egg continued to imitate on his own, seemingly enjoying himself.

He always felt that this kind of thing was like a storyline broadcast on the radio, and he found it very interesting.

An Chen and Jiu Ge walked towards the old lady.

"Hello, Grandma." An Chen stepped forward first and took the initiative to speak to the old lady.

Just like Mr. Knight, the old woman didn't react to the outside world at all; she just stared blankly at the sky.

"Grandma, do you know what happened here? Why are you still living in this illusion?" Jiuge also came closer, her expression serious.

The old lady's cotton-padded coat still had her address and name embroidered on it, which suggests that her family really thought she had Alzheimer's disease.

Perhaps it was because of the words "illusion" that the old lady suddenly lowered her head.

Looking at An Chen and Jiu Ge, her eyes were filled with a murky black mist.

"Illusion?"

The old lady picked up her cane and stood up.

The other hand was slightly open, and inside was a glowing stone.

An Chen and Jiu Ge's eyes widened.

Any medium with even a slightly higher level of ability should be able to tell that this stone is unusual.

It could even be described as an SSR-level treasure.

“This is Gouzi Bay,” the old lady said with a smile.

As the light appeared, her eyes suddenly regained their clarity.

"Grandma's recovered!" Little Dog Egg jumped up from the ground, looking extremely surprised.

It's impossible that my grandmother would have consciously uttered the words "Gouziwan" before.

“?” An Chen and Jiu Ge looked at each other, completely bewildered.

The only thing they were certain of was that stone.

It is neither an illusion nor a projection of anything.

The stone is a real thing, just like An Chen and Jiu Ge, it came from the outside reality.

"Little Dog Egg, is this the guest you brought?" The old lady took Little Dog Egg's basket with one hand, then waved for An Chen and Jiu Ge to come in.

"Yes, Grandma, I am Little Dog Egg!"

The little dog Egg excitedly bounced around and ran into the house to tell Grandpa.

"Where are you from?" the old woman asked.

She pulled out a simple wooden stool, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Gouziwan was very poor; people didn't have many clothes or much food.

“We’re from the neighboring bay,” An Chen said casually.

Jiuge was stunned, her expression somewhat surprised.

She sat down next to An Chen and was speechless for a moment.
