Chapter 35: Li Guofeng’s backhand
Grandpa is worried, he felt can not continue to let Li Guozhong and Li Bold so far, arable land crops that is the lifeblood of the farmers, absolutely can not fail, but the lock village thing has been reported to the township, this time, the leadership did not call Grandpa to go, but directly to the lock village, but came so what? They gave grandpa a big scolding, but also just warned grandpa, hurry to find out the people who destroyed the crops, otherwise this captain is really no need to let grandpa do it again, whether grandpa is not heartbroken this ninth grade sesame officer, in any case, things can not happen again, he is ready to go to find the real person He, to have an understanding of all this.
Grandpa has been very unlucky lately, so according to the probability then it should also turn around, isn't it? As expected this time in the grandpa's all kinds of worry, finally have good news came out, that is, He Xiaoyu woke up, which in the village is absolutely top secret news, because it is in everyone's witness He Xiaoyu coffin burial, if she is back from the dead, then it is definitely going to cause a sensation, to report to the people must be absolutely their own people, that is, the two children.
Grandpa heard the news is also ecstatic ah, although to He Xiaoyu put on the bib when He Xiaoyu looked at the grandfather a little embarrassed to face her, but still wildly ran to the barn, as opposed to the death of such a big thing, touch a few look at a few eyes that's a big thing?
Grandpa went down to the cellar, He real people or the signature action of smoking dry cigarettes, He Xiaoyu sat there, the candles have been extinguished, Grandpa walked to He Xiaoyu in front of the road: "Xiaoyu, you woke up? How do you feel?"
He Xiaoyu's eyes stagnant, just so wooden look ahead, seems to have no grandfather to speak.
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you, I'm your morechen brother!" Grandpa said.
"Gengchen, don't bother, Xiaoyu is awake, but she's already stupid, now she's just a demented." He Zhenran said.
"What? This!" Grandpa was taken aback! What is this situation, He Xiaoyu this came to the Locked Village, this a thousand turns of the good and hard to have a good end of the death and come back to life, this woke up and became a fool again?
"All blame me, I should have thought of it, that the Li family three ghosts are not fools, they may know that I take Xiaoyu's body away have plans, although they can not guess what I want to do specifically, or move the hands and feet in Xiaoyu's soul on the hands and feet , so even if we intercepted the Li Guofeng, save the life of Xiaoyu, that Xiaoyu will also become a fool. " He Zhenran said.
Grandpa looked at He Xiaoyu's dull eyes, this is only twenty years old a girl, to put it bluntly, this demented crazy and stupid, this is simply more difficult than death ah, you say this Xiaoyu how this girl is so heartbreaking it?
"He Zhen Zhen, you must have a way right right, save Xiaoyu, all count me Guo Gengchen owe you, anyway, I owe you can't pay back clearly." Grandpa rushed to beg He Zhengen, this directly line is the kneeling salute, men's knees have gold, grandpa this is considered to take life to beg He Zhengen.
"More Chen you get up, I things have reached the present point, you still do not know what I mean? But where there is a little possibility, I will not give up, but Li Guofeng this backhand, high, really let me never expected, this human soul is divided into three souls and seven souls, its soul has three, one for the soul of the sky, the second for the soul of the earth, the third for the soul of the life of the soul, and its soul has seven, a Prana Tianchong, the second Prana Spiritual Wisdom, the third Prana for the gas, the fourth for the force, the fifth Prana Center, the six Prana for the essence of the seven Prana for the British. Li Guofeng in letting He Xiaoyu return soul, strong left her spirit spirit, that is to say, now we want to save Xiaoyu, is not impossible, then we can only look for the remaining Li family two ghosts, Li Guofeng should be the spirit left to them to take care of, which is like we want to be a complete Xiaoyu, but also to go to them to put in a good word. Do you think they'll still give it after this situation has come to this?" Real He sighed.
"It's the three Li family members again for fuck's sake! When Li Guofeng was alive, he was just simple minded and limber, if you ask me, this ghost idea must have been thought up by Li Guozhong, the three Li family members, he's the only one with a bit of brains." Grandpa scolded.
"No matter who it is, in any case, the current situation is like this, Morechen, what do you say about this?" He Zhenran said.
Li Guozhong is Li Erdan's old man, He Zhenzhen asked grandpa how to do, but he did not know how to do things ask grandpa is certainly no way, originally this side took Li Guofeng as a hostage or prevailed, now this situation has fallen again.
"He immortal, you have no way?" My grandfather asked.
Immortal He frowned and smoked a cigarette, and after a long time sighed: "There is a way, but doing so is really hurtful to heaven and peace, and really do so, the two of us and the Li family's beam is like tying a dead knot, there is no possibility of unraveling completely."
"There is a way you say ah, as long as it is a way on the line, I am really not afraid of offending them." Grandpa said.
"They detained He Xiaoyu Spirit Hui Prana, it's only because we are attached to He Xiaoyu, so the only way now is that we increase the chips in our hands. Doesn't Li Guozhong still have a wife and son? It's Li Erdan and that Xiu'e, the last time we begged them to let it go, it was a toast because we owed them for the death of the three of them, but this time we can only do the absolute best, it's not true that we are worried about He Xiaoyu, but he, Li Guozhong, can he not care about the wives and children that he left behind?" Real He said.
Grandpa was almost unsteady on his feet after hearing this, and said uncertainly, "You mean, take Xiu'e and Erdan to blackmail them?"
He Zhenran nodded silently and said, "This is the only way, whether you agree or disagree, we must first take Xiu'e and Erdan down tonight, at least so that they don't dare to scourge the crops tonight."
"But doing this, it's a bit unkind, isn't it? This is not as bad as my wife and children, if I kidnap Erdan and Xiu'e tonight, he'll make my family Aiguo and Xiulian sick tomorrow? When will this end?" Grandpa said.
Real He glanced at Grandpa and said, "Now you understand why I did that before, right? You don't have to tell me, I know that you must have held a grudge against me for not cutting down the ghosts earlier, and had to wait until they became established, didn't you? More minister ah, I in addition to at that time is indeed because they died in vain can not lay hands on, the most important thing is that in case the beheading of ghosts failed, so that the three masters run out of a, that will be a party of a big disaster ah!"
"Understand, I understand, all understand." Grandpa said.
Grandpa said this sentence and then did not say, he did not speak is tantamount to show his attitude, is to He Zhenzhen kidnapped two eggs and Xiu E's matter does not support, grandpa is a decent person, although it is not a great warrior, but it is also considered to be a gentleman's style, kidnapping women, children and children's matter, he can not do it.
However, looking at Xiaoyu's dull appearance, remembering the ruined crops in the ground, he did not have a good solution, and for a time it was not easy to relax his mind and heart once again tensed up.
After a while, Mr. He said, "If you don't want to go, I'll go, are you stupid? Forget the way to slaughter the cow, we are not really going to take what Erdan and Xiu'e do, just make a show to scare them."
Grandpa shook his head and said, "Erdan is my godson, the last time he was nice to them, there was indeed an element of drama, but I really feel sorry for the orphans and widows, if it's really like this, it's better for me to go, and also explain clearly to them. Your status to go is not appropriate, kidnapping people always need a reason, Xiu'e and Erdan are not easy ah."
He Zhenren nodded and said, "Go, Morechen, don't feel psychological pressure, we're all here to save people."
–Grandpa had no choice, now must do so, with the rope with the two children together to the Xiu E's home, squatting at the door has been smoking a few children's cigarettes before they dare to enter the door, it is too embarrassed, it is not easy to make up your mind to enter the home, Xiu E's haggard face and sleeping half of the face of the two eggs sleeping, let Grandpa in his heart meditation! The words he had held in his mouth for a long time could not be uttered.
"Brother Gengchen, you have something to say, in fact, you do not say I also know, outside the rumors I have heard it, I am sorry for you, my family's three men to give you trouble! How could I have imagined that Xiaoyu would stay at my house for just a few days, and then something so big would happen." Xiu'e said she was about to kneel down, but Grandpa hurriedly lifted her up, not wanting to tie her up even if it was just for show.
Grandpa mixed up Xiu'e, simply tell the whole story, finished, this Xiu'e directly stretched out his hands and said: "more Chen brother, if it is useful you tie, itself is the sins they created, we have to pay, as long as you can save Xiaoyu's life, tie it, I do not blame you."
Grandpa looked at the face crying into tears, hard-hearted people can not get down ah, sighed and said: "Just for you this brother more Chen, real or fake kidnapping I will not tie, but you also know my difficulties, if I do not tie the two of you today, Guozhong and bold uncle will destroy the townspeople's crops, you say this thing more Chen brother how to do? So I'm shamelessly begging you, if I don't kidnap you tonight, can you go and help the townspeople look after the fields?"
Xiu'e kneeled down again and said, "Why not, even if you want me to die now, that's fine!"
Grandpa nodded, this is a compromise, He Xiaoyu to look after the crops, that Li Guozhong and Li Doudao will not do anything for the sake of the deceased, right? Can delay a day is a day, the way always need time to think.
Just at this time, the cotton-clad He Zhenran came uninvited, grandfather stood up to give up his seat, was He Zhenran waved his hand to stop: "What you guys are saying, I just heard it all outside, more Chen, this is not a bad idea of yours, this way, Xiu'e, you kneel down in front of the village entrance tonight, tell your man, say I want to talk to him."
chapter xxxvi guarding the plowed fields for the people
He Zhen Zhen supports his grandfather's point of view, that is, not to tie up Xiu'e and Erdan, an era has the characteristics of an era, perhaps in nowadays we would think it's just a fake tie up, it's not like there's any harm in tying it up for real, but in those days, this kind of bullying of orphans and widows, people who think they're big old men can't do it, it's a kind of old-fashioned classical chivalrous plot.
The survivor is still alive, but the deceased is in the scourge of the countryside, Xiu'e is genuinely heartbroken, she will not reject the He Zhenzhen's argument, Grandma, they cut some paper money, in the evening, Xiu'e came to the entrance of the village, let out a cry of pain and screamed: "Guozhong, if you still care for me, and care for that son of yours who has become inhuman and unearthly, don't do any more sins! Guofeng's evil behavior after his death was due to his young age and lack of understanding. You were such a clear person when you were alive, how can you be so confused even after your death? He harmed the human girl He Xiaoyu, even if he was thrown into a frying pan and fried a hundred times he still deserved it, you know he is wrong you still want to help him?"
"Li Guozhong, come out here! I want to see what you look like when you become a ghost, why don't you dare to come out to see me? Have you ever thought that if you have victimized the townspeople, how will you let me and Erdan behave in the village? After what happened to Erdan's face, if it wasn't for Brother Ganchen and the townspeople taking care of him, would there still be any descendants of your Li family? Come out and let me see, I'd like to see you become a ghost, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?!"
Every time Xiu'e screamed, she sprinkled a handful of paper money. On this night, a woman lit a fire pit at the entrance of the village and chanted to a dead person, this scene was actually very scary, from this we can see that this Xiu'e is also a smart woman, what she said was not taught by anyone, it was all her own words she wanted to say to Li Guo-Zhong. Grandpa and He Zhen Zhen Zhen were over in the corner, listening. Xiu'e is really smart, she said that this was meant for Li Guo-Zhong, and why was it not meant for them? She said she was speaking to Li Guozhong, but she wasn't speaking to the two of them.
The people who live are to pave the way for themselves, in case the three ghosts of the Li family really do not listen to advice, the villagers will be angry at the mother of them what to do? Saying so at least makes it absolutely impossible for my grandfather to make things difficult for them in the future, and of course grandfather's human nature will never allow them to be so difficult.
Xiu E on the other side of this broken half a day, but the village entrance side not the slightest movement, Grandpa to He Zhenzhen said: "It seems to be useless, this Li Guozhong is not to give a little face."
Real He also frowned and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking. Finally, he said, "Wait and see, judging from that last time, this Li Guozhong is indeed a reasonable person."
After a while, it was freezing cold, Xiu'e was screaming her voice over there, grandpa couldn't stand it anymore, so he said to He Zhenzhen, "He Shenxian, or let's forget about it, now this is so messed up, it's the same as us forcing Xiu'e to call the ghost."
As soon as Grandpa's words fell out of his mouth, suddenly a gust of wind arose over there, scattering the paper money and almost blinding the fire in the fire bowl, followed by a voice that said, "Xiu'e, go home! There's nothing for you to get involved in!"
This voice was just like Li Bold's voice!
Grandpa hit a jolt, together with He Zhenzhen dead stared at the entrance of the village, wanting to see the figure of Li Bold, but there was no, only to see that after the smoky dispersal, Xiu'e has gone soft on the ground, the two rushed over, and found that Xiu'e has fainted.
The grandfather was panicked at once, he mother of this Li Bold, how can he lay hands on his own daughter-in-law? He real people took Xiu E's pulse, said: "Nothing, just fainted, it seems that this Li Bold is eating the weight of the iron heart, more Chen, you first send Xiu E home, tonight I will sit in the field, spelled my old life, but also to save the townspeople's crops."
Grandpa is worried about Xiu'e, this thing Xiu'e in something happened, itself poor two eggs this can do? He real people should be able to take care of themselves, he carried Xiu'e back home, in fact, when he arrived home Xiu'e already woke up, just a little white, has been crying to grandpa said the Li family is sorry for the townspeople, if those crops are really gone, then he Xiu'e will not have the face to live again.
"Xiu E, you can never think too much, two eggs still need you to take care of, this thing you tried your best, not blame you more Chen brother know, rest well, I go to see the real He." Grandpa said pulling his leg and rushed to the village entrance, he knew that he had no qualification to worry about He Zhenran, but even if he went to no use, he still had to go, this is his code of conduct.
Grandpa arrived at the entrance of the village, found He Zhengen, the He Zhengen in front of him was the He Zhengen that Grandpa had never seen before.
This is no longer the hunched back hair white old man cattle herding!
He Zhengen was wearing soap clothes, back inserted mahogany sword, holding a floating dust, this is before he was in the supreme view of the time only dress, this outfit makes He Zhengen the whole person's temperament has undergone a radical change, this is a Taoist big real person's momentum!
Seeing his grandfather coming, He Zhenran waved his hand to him and said, "You go back and take care of Aiguo and siblings, don't worry, I, He Anxia, am not much capable, in ancient times, there was the world's righteous man who guarded the country's gates for the people, and today, I, He Anxia, am guarding this crop field for the village's white-plus population. It is also considered to do my best."
Grandpa naturally refused to go, at the moment He Zhengen gave grandpa a feeling of generosity to death, which makes grandpa very worried, but he did not go He Zhengen froze angry and drove him away, scolded: "I surnamed He's if there is no more can be, lock the head of the village can not not have Guo Genchen ah. You hurry to me back."
Grandpa had no choice but to go back, to the village when he remembered the words of the real He, he still burst of heartache, He real He put a high hat on him, he certainly will not drift, if there is no real He, then the lock village is really not saved, he Guo Gengchen can do what?
He can't let Mr. He face the Li family's two ghosts alone!
But grandpa also knows, even if he now take a machete to go over, will only take off the legs of the real He, he must find a real can help the real He, there is only one candidate, is Song Xiaoguang's goblin wife Bai Zhenzhu.
He didn't go home, but directly found Song Xiaoguang's house, it was already early in the morning, but when he arrived at Song Xiaoguang's house, Bai Zhenzhu and Song Xiaoguang were both sitting in the courtyard, their clothes neatly dressed.
Grandpa walked over, did not speak, directly to Bai Zhenzhu kneeled down, Bai Zhenzhu rushed over to pull, Grandpa just do not get up, said: "younger sister, men's knees have gold, this reason brother understand, I also know, kneeling more than it is not worth it, the past few days I kneeled He Zhenzhu, today I kneeled you, but I Guo Ganchen kneeling, is never for my own sake, you look at the lock head! village up and down the face of more than a hundred mouths, you go to help He Zhenran! Only you can help him!"
White Pearl looked embarrassed and said, "Older brother, it's still what I said last time, the paths are different, I can't do anything on my side."
"Pearl, go." At this time, Song Xiaoguang, who hadn't said anything, unprecedentedly opened his mouth, he came over and mixed up his grandfather, saying to him, "I don't want you to go, but we can't let others bully our Locked Head Village into having no one left, for the sake of the townspeople, let's say I'm begging you."
-White Pearl is a siren is not false, but said earlier, she is a very spot on the ancient rituals of a woman, perhaps in her subconscious is an ancient lady, Dao Wanfu what other women where still remember? Even when this is a feudal residual poison.
She spoke of those feudal etiquette, three from four virtues, this three from is not young from the father, married from the husband, husband died from the son, grandfather begged her to refuse, but Song Xiaoguang open, she can not refuse.
She bowed to Song Xiaoguang and said, "I can't take such a big gift, I'll go now."
Bai Zhenzhu went out the door.
There are people who die as evil spirits.
But there are demons who guard the plowed fields for the people.
Grandpa returned home, sleepless all night, that night, lock head village child above the dark clouds and lightning and thunder, woke up the villagers heard a loud noise at the entrance of the village, but recently the lock head village child is not peaceful everyone knows, no one dares to go out to check.
Grandpa silently smoked a night.
After the cock crowed three shawls, he and Song Xiaoguang were the first to rush to the village entrance.
He real soap clothes tattered no longer last night's dusty elegance, white pearl all white clothes also stained with countless dust.
For some reason, Grandpa suddenly gave a standard military salute to those two figures standing at the village entrance.
This is from the heart of respect.
