Chapter 70 Grandpa’s Friends (2)
Chen Shi felt uneasy.
He has a simple understanding that if his grandfather is evil, then his grandson must also be evil.
But, I am evil, how come I don’t know?
He suppressed his strange thoughts and followed his grandfather into the deserted house.
The desolate house was dim and desolate, but the moonlight in the sky fell, and wherever it touched, the desolate house suddenly took on a new look, with feasting and feasting, and many graceful girls shuttled in and out, some carrying flower baskets, and some carrying baskets.
With delicacies and delicacies, and a lot of smiles, it must be a grand dinner party.
After a while, Chen Shi and his grandfather were sitting in the magnificent lobby.
Grandpa is still holding a green umbrella, but sitting in the front seat is a tall man with a big heart, hugging him from left to right, and his wives and concubines in groups.
"Chen Yindu, you're not here to slay evil spirits, are you?
The big man with a bun said with a nonchalant smile, "Although I have become a evil spirit, I never do anything wrong. I will only kill someone if someone offends me.
You have no reason to attack me."
Grandpa shook his head and said: "Old Hu, I'm not here to kill you, but I'm here to ask you for something.
Xiao Shi’s name is Uncle Hu.
Chen Shi's mouth was very sweet: "Hello Uncle Hu, my nephew wants to meet Uncle Hu.
The big man with a bun snorted and seemed quite unhappy with Chen Shi.
Grandpa smiled and said: "Lao Hu, I'm getting old and I'm afraid I won't live long, so I want Xiao Shi to make you my godmother.
When you become his godmother, Xiao Shi will be filial to you, make incense continuous every day, and bring offerings during the holidays, so that you won't have to be a lonely ghost here.
"
When the big man with beard heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he sneered: "Old Chentou, you can bring him back from the dead, I admire your method.
But you also caused a huge disaster! You were kind to me back then, but I repaid your kindness when you saved him! In order to save him back then, my fox clan also risked our lives! You let him
You came to worship me as your godmother, are you trying to repay kindness with enmity and want to kill me?"
Grandpa sighed: "Lao Hu, I'm going to die. After I die, Xiao Shi won't be able to survive."
"Kill him! Kill him before you die!"
The bearded man patted the table, spittle flew from his mouth, and was very excited, "You are almost dead, why don't you kill him? Are you leaving him to harm your father? Chen Yindu, kill him now.
I admire you for being a good man!
Chen Shi's head was buzzing. Apparently Lao Hu and his grandfather were old acquaintances, and they once teamed up to save him at the risk of their own lives.
But what Lao Hu said about killing him obviously meant killing Chen Shi!
But why did he save himself in the first place and kill himself now?
Judging from his tone, after grandpa's death, Chen Shi will definitely cause trouble to the people.
But Chen Shi knew that he would never bring trouble to the common people.
What a kind person he is?
He could obviously beat the villagers into obedience and make them obediently offer all kinds of food, but he still went to great lengths to steal melons and pick peaches and refused to use force against the villagers.
How many people did he kill in order to protect the villagers in Huangpo Village?
Miss Zhao Er and hundreds of others were deceived by him into the realm of ghosts and gods and turned into porcelain dolls. He could have smashed them all.
But he didn't take action. How kind was this?
If you are so kind, how can you bring trouble to the common people?
Besides, I don’t have this ability myself.
What made Chen Shi even more angry was that Lao Hu actually thought that his grandfather should do it himself.
Obviously Lao Hu wanted to say that rescuing Chen Shi was the result of grandpa causing a huge disaster!
How ridiculous!
What kind of bastard fair-weather friends are these?
Grandpa felt sad, got up and walked outside.
Lao Hu quickly said: "It's dark outside, aren't you worried about evil spirits? Stay and have a quick meal before leaving."
Otherwise there will be rumors that old friends will laugh at me for not knowing how to treat guests.
Do you really want to leave? Then I won’t give it away.”
Although he spoke nicely, his butt seemed to be glued to the chair and he couldn't even move.
Grandpa waved his hand and walked out of the deserted house.
Chen Shi called the scapegoat and quickly followed him.
Lao Hu sat in his seat with a gloomy expression on his face. He no longer had any thoughts of savoring the delicacies and loving his concubine.
A fair and petite concubine nestled in his arms and said with a sweet smile: "Why is the master worried?
"Not Chen Yindu?"
Lao Hu sighed and blamed himself, "He has always wanted to be strong and has never asked for help from anyone. This time he came here to ask for help for the first time in his life, but I refused. I always feel a little sorry.
When he begged me, I couldn't help but think of the days when I had a lot of fights with him. In fact, he treated me well.
Before I died, I told him that if I died and became evil, he would kill me himself.
He has always been extremely hard-hearted, and he will definitely be able to suppress his brotherhood and get rid of me to prevent me from causing trouble."
He smiled and said: "But when I woke up from my confusion, I found that I had not lost my mind and could live in this mansion like a living person.
Do you know what he did?"
He stood up, looked excited, waved his sleeves, and said loudly: "He used his life's wealth, the treasures he collected throughout his life, and his knowledge to build this mansion!"
Wherever he waved his sleeves, countless magnificent talismans and treasures emerged from the walls, floors, roofs, pillar gardens, vegetation, doors and walls, bricks and tiles of the mansion, etc., and the light flowed! Zi,
Lao Hu burst into tears, but laughed loudly: "He created an artificial realm of ghosts and gods for me, so that I can stay sane here! He didn't kill me, but he let me live! He let me live in such luxury
In this place, I will be a pauper myself! I will never be able to repay his kindness in this life, not even in the next life!"
The beautiful concubine said in confusion: "Since the master feels so sorry, why did you reject him just now?
Lao Hu's tears disappeared, he snorted and sneered: "I can't stand his attitude of asking for help.
He had never asked for help in his life, and he didn't know that he should be humble when asking for help.
He ran over and sat down here, as if he was saying, Lao Hu, please kneel down and I want to ask you a favor.
Is there anyone who begs like this? When he sat down and begged me, I almost slipped out of my chair and knelt down."
"The master looks disgusting and kind."
The concubine smiled and said, "I rejected him with my mouth, but I agreed with him in my heart.
Lao Hu slapped her hard on her fleshy ass, his face was trembling with fear, and he shook his head like a rattle: "Even if he is so kind to me, I will never agree to it."
He! Hey, become Xiao Shi’s godmother."
His face was even more frightened, and he said in a trembling voice: "I can't do it, I really can't do it! I don't want to be killed again after death, and I don't want to bear the eternal infamy! The reputation of our fox clan is not good to begin with.
Being called evil, if I bear the infamy, the Fox Clan will be doomed! I can’t risk the future of the Fox Clan!”
The wooden cart was covered with peach charms. This was the first time Chen Shi was sober and followed his grandfather on a night journey.
Under the moonlight, there were many strange sounds coming from around the wooden cart, and there were things moving in the shadows of the woods, rivers, and rocks.
From time to time, mist would hit the wooden cart. Before it got close, the peach charms hanging on the wooden cart vibrated, and a golden armored god made of golden light emerged, standing on the side of the wooden cart, blocking the fog.
When the fog recedes, the golden light dissipates, and the golden-armored god disappears
Engraved on the peach charm is the door god charm, which can prevent evil from approaching.
However, there are still ghosts in the night, which cannot be solved by Taofu, "Chirp!"
Grandpa lit a lantern and called the black dog. The black pot bit the handle of the lantern and ran in front of the car.
"Lao Hu is only evil-minded, but most importantly he has a warm heart.
Grandpa stared at the compass in his hand and was silent for a long time. Then he said, "He is the timidest and most enthusiastic friend I know.
Although he said he won't be your godmother, he will definitely come out to protect you after I leave.
Chen Shi opened his eyes wide and asked, "Where is grandpa going?"
[3
"I'm not going anywhere, I will always be with grandpa. He stretched out his big rough hand, rubbed Chen Shi's head, and said with a smile: Xiao Shi.
I mean just in case, just in case..."
The wooden cart continued to drive in the dark night. Chen Shi looked at the darkness outside the cart. Under the moonlight, there was a vague figure standing in the field in the distance.
He hurriedly looked up, wondering in his heart: "It seems to be the spirit of Orochi Xuanshan, why is he following us all the time?"
Grandpa called Hei Guo to stop, and the wooden cart changed direction. Hei Guo followed the car with a lantern in his mouth, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right, sometimes running in front of the car, sometimes falling to the rear of the car.
The blood-colored eyes that surrounded them in the darkness were so hot that they shrank back when illuminated by its light.
The wooden cart was twisting and turning, and Chen Shi didn't know where they were now.
He fell asleep in the car and dreamed that his grandfather was missing and he was struggling to find him. At this time, he was awakened by the sound of the black pot and saw that the wooden car had stopped and the moon in the sky was slowly closing its eyes.
It's almost dawn
"Why do we stop here?"
Chen Shi was puzzled.
Wait for dawn.
Chen Shi sat next to his grandfather, quietly waiting for dawn.
Ahead, more than a mile away from them, there was a village, a ring-shaped village with shadowy buildings that were not clearly visible in the moonlight.
"
What friend does grandpa want to meet this time?
"It's still just evil."
"I went to see it at night and couldn't control myself.
But during the day, it becomes much more sensible."
Grandpa said,
At this time, two long cracks opened in the sky, like two grand canyons, and the huge eyes slowly opened, slowly turning into two suns, shining on the earth.
The sun is coming out.
The surrounding mountains and forests gradually returned to normal under the sunlight.
The wooden cart continued to drive forward, and soon arrived at the village. The houses here were very old, but the people here were very kind, courteous, and lived a prosperous life. The village was filled with a peaceful atmosphere.
Chen Shi looked around, wondering who was the evil spirit in his grandfather's mouth.
Grandpa came to the sacred tree in the center of the village. Chen Shi looked carefully and saw that the sacred tree was also covered with various wishing signs and banners. There were also various sacrifices and unburned items placed in front of the tree.
Exhausted incense.
But when he looked around, he didn't see the tree god condensed with extraordinary power.
Suddenly, the sound of clattering hooves came, and a green-haired goat came happily from behind the tree. It had a white goatee and golden flat eyes. While sniffing the incense, it stood up and picked up the villagers.
He took a bite of the sacrificial sugar cane.
Chen Shi stared blankly at the green sheep walking over on two legs. He saw that the green sheep stood half a head taller than his grandfather. The green sheep chewed the sugar cane in its mouth, squeezed out the sweet water inside, and then spit out the bagasse.
.
Its hooves are not like hooves, but rather like sharp claws with scales and sharp and flexible claws that can easily grasp sugar cane.
"Chen Yindu, old Chentou!
When Qingyang saw his grandfather and grandson, he smiled happily, holding the sugar cane with one paw and putting the other paw on his grandfather's shoulder, and said with a smile, "
You haven't come to see me for a few days! I was happy for a long time when I heard that you were dead. Now I see you alive and kicking, not to mention how sad I am! You even brought Xiao Shi! Xiao Shi, do you still remember your Uncle Qingyang?
?When you were little, I even peed on you and teased your calf!"
Chen Shi's face turned red and he covered the front of his bed with both hands.
Qingyang put his arms around his shoulders and said with a smile: "Old Chentou, you brought Xiao Shi this time, are you planning to dedicate him to me? Yes, you are old and dying, you can no longer suppress Xiao Shi, right?
Isn’t that right? If you can’t suppress him, tsk tsk, I don’t know how many people will die.
It was very happy, and said with a bleating smile: "You will definitely be called a grandson after you die, that's great... Gouzi! Tweet, come to Uncle Yang! Old Chentou is so polite, he even came here,
I'll bring you some work too. Don't leave tonight. Let's cook dog meat together.
"
Black Pot shivered.
Grandpa couldn't get a word in at all, so he finally waited until Qingyang stopped, then explained his purpose and said, "I'm leaving soon.
Qingyang stared at him excitedly, as if his grandfather would die in the next moment.
Grandpa said: "But not now.
Please listen to me first. I am about to travel far away, but Xiao Shi cannot be left alone to take care of me. Among the few good friends we had back then, you were the only one who had this means.
So I want to entrust Xiao Shi to you.
Qingyang rubbed her paws in excitement and said in a trembling voice: "Sacrifice to me, will you cook it today?"
"No, you will be Xiao Shi's godmother."
Grandpa said.
Qingyang suddenly lost all interest, yawned, dropped the sugar cane, put down his two front paws, got down on all fours, swung his short tail and walked behind the tree, lazily saying: "You, Chen Yin, are the only ones who are happy with this kind of hard work.
Dry.
In this village, I hid in the trees during the day, pretending to be a tree god, and absorbing incense. When I went out at night, I would be haunted by evil spirits, and I would do evil everywhere. I felt very uncomfortable.
Why should I be your mother-in-law to the Chen family? Leave now!"
It said in a vicious voice: "Old Chentou, you are getting old, and your cultivation strength is not as good as it was at your peak. Be careful if you anger me, I will kill your grandfather and grandson and eat them!"
Grandpa sighed and said: "Qingyang, I may not stay in this world for long, please take care of yourself.
I will entrust you with a dream when I leave."
Qingyang trembled, stopped, suddenly snorted again, raised his head, walked into the tree hole with small steps, and sneered: "Who cares about your dream?"
After the grandfather and grandson and the black pot left, the green sheep in the tree hole cried until it burst into tears and runny nose.
"You bastard, old Chentou, you just want to die, why do you have to tell me? If you don't tell me, you can die wherever you want. I won't be able to think of you for ten days and a half.
You said it, can I still stay out of it?"

I present a book written by an old friend and author, "America 1879: Please Call Me Boss". The quality and updates are guaranteed.
It tells the story of traveling to the United States in 1879 and how a man who was sold as a piglet became a godfather.
Some of the Hongmen incision ceremonies are quite interesting.
