Chapter 7 Be a good person, be a bad person
……
In the Great Qianguo, deep in the southwest mountains, there is a small mountain village located on a cow-shaped mountain range, called Niujia Village. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There are sixty or seventy households in Niujia Village, most of the villagers are very poor, and Zhang Sanniu's family on the high ground in the north of the village is even more poor to the point that they can't even eat enough.
Until one day, after Zhang Ergou, the second eldest child of Zhang Sanniu's family, was born, the villagers began to find that this originally poor family had undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few years.
First of all, Zhang Sanniu's family planted much better land than before, regardless of flooding and drought, they can guarantee a bumper harvest every year, as if they know the time of day every year, and they have never missed it.
Later, Zhang Sanniu's family ate much better food than before, no matter running in the mountains, swimming in the water, flying in the sky, there is no shortage of meat all year round, and you can often smell the smell of meat from his house.
Then, it is all kinds of unsolvable mysteries that happened to Zhang Sanniu's son Zhang Ergou, for the things in the village, this Zhang Ergou seems to always be able to predict in advance, whose house will be on fire this year, whose child will drown next year, and whose adult will be in danger of hunting in the mountains the year after tomorrow.
There are even a few villagers who have tasted a little sweetness because they have listened to Zhang Ergou's words, and they are even more convinced of Zhang Ergou.
There are also a few hunters who picked up a life in times of danger because they listened to Zhang Ergou's reminder, and they regarded Zhang Ergou as a life-saving benefactor, and they were grateful to Dade.
There are too many miracles that happened to Zhang Ergou, and Zhang Ergou's fame has gradually grown, and even some ignorant villagers really believe in some rumors: Zhang Ergou is the reincarnation of the Nine Heavens God Monarch, with boundless mana, five hundred years in front of him, five hundred years in the future, all blessings and misfortunes, and all evil demons are hidden...... Then hang a portrait of the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch in the shape of Zhang Ergou at the door of the house, in order to ask for the safety of the house.
"Huh~!Who dare to be presumptuous here, don't you show your true body soon, let my mother-in-law and I use divine fire to purify you, the monster!"
On this morning, an old woman with a hoarse voice, an ugly appearance, and skin like old tree bark, with a group of frightened villagers with hoes in their hands, gathered at the door of Zhang Ergou's house, and the old woman also held a peachwood sword dripping with dog blood in her hand, and she was full of vigour to crusade against the demons.
"Slay the demons?"
Seeing this kind of battle, Zhou Ming sneered, walked to the door, and said to the goddess in front of him: "I see, the so-called demon is you, locust tree spirit?"
"What are you talking about...... the goddess was stunned, and her head was short.
Suddenly, Zhou Mingji pointed at the goddess, and said in a fierce voice: "Last year, Yang Jialing's six-year-old child fell ill, and was possessed by you as a water ghost, and was pushed into the fire and burned alive.
"The year before last, there was also an eight-year-old child in Dadong Village who fell ill, and was also burned to death by you as a water ghost, and his soul was swallowed by you, and his yang life increased by two years......"
"The year before last, Xishui Village ......"
"In the past ten years, you have been the party to the disaster, there are more than a dozen children who have been possessed by you as water ghosts, and the locust tree spirit has absorbed so many children's souls, and your yang life has increased by more than a hundred years, right?"
Listening to Zhou Ming's words, the villagers were in a commotion.
"What, the old goddess is a locust tree spirit, specializing in swallowing children's souls?"
"The old goddess looks older than seventy or eighty years old, a hundred years old, right?"
"How can it be that every time it is possessed by a water ghost?"
"Could it be that what the Nine Heavens God Monarch said is true?"
The villagers took two steps back in unison, looking at the goddess not far away with horror on their faces.
The goddess's face turned pale, and she said angrily: "Shameless demons, a bunch of nonsense, don't die soon!" After speaking, the goddess held the blood sword and rushed straight towards Zhou Ming.
"Locust tree spirit, you should be the one who suffers!"
Zhou Ming's face was solemn, he took out a ball-shaped object from his sleeve, threw it at the feet of the goddess, and there was a loud bang, and after two or three seconds, a burst of choking black smoke dissipated, and the goddess covered in blood had already fallen to the ground, moaning.
"Ladies and uncles, this harmful locust tree spirit has been knocked down by me with palm thunder, I will seal the body of the locust tree essence, you will throw this locust tree spirit into the fire, help me eradicate this demon that is the victim!"
After speaking, Zhou Ming took out a piece of ebony of unknown material from his sleeve, took out a knife and slashed it up, and in a burst of exclamation, a dazzling blood mark appeared on the pitch-black ebony.
"Locust tree spirit, this old goddess is really a locust tree spirit!"
"I have lost my conscience, and the souls of more than a dozen children have been swallowed by this locust tree spirit. ”
"Burn her, burn her!"
The enraged villagers lifted up the wailing goddess and threw it into the blazing fire.
"This second dog of the Zhang family, could it be that the reincarnation of the god monarch is not possible?" In the crowd, Li Shouzheng, the chief of the pale face, regretted inviting the old goddess to Niujia Village.
……
In the blink of an eye, sixteen years have passed, and the name of Zhang Ergou, the Nine Heavens God Monarch, has become more and more thunderous, and there are more and more "miracles" that have happened to Zhang Ergou, such as blacksmithing without a teacher, carpenter work, hunting in the mountains has never returned empty-handed, and some inventions and creations occasionally have brought infinite benefits to the village.
What's even more rare is that the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch still has a Bodhisattva-like heart, whoever in the village is in difficulty, and that family encounters tricky things, they are all generous and helpful, and if there is difficulty, looking for the Divine Monarch has almost become a word of mouth among the villagers.
And when I heard that the Shenjun, who had reached the age of starting a family, wanted to marry his daughter Xiuniang, Wang Xiucai from the east of the village agreed without much objection, the Nine Heavens Shenjun has great powers, and his daughter marries him, and the rest of her life should be happy.
At this moment, the chief Li Shouzheng is at home.
Li Shouzheng's second son, Li Wenhao, was crying, making trouble, and hanging himself in his bedroom, making the family restless and chickens jumping.
"No, I must take Wang Xiucai's daughter Wang Xiuniang as a concubine! She is mine, and no one is allowed to rob me!"
Li Wenhao's eyes were red, and when he heard that Zhang Ergou also fell in love with Wang Xiuniang, he was furious and angry!
"Ouch my heart, that Wang Xiuniang is the woman that the Nine Heavens Divine Monarch has taken a fancy to, what are you robbing with the Divine Monarch, you are not afraid of being punished by God, good son, good man, there are many women in this world, don't worry about that Wang Xiuniang, okay." Mother Li persuaded hard that Mother Li, who believes in gods and Buddhas, doesn't want to get the true God who sins in the world.
"What Nine Heavens Divine Monarch, I think it's just a dog! A leper dog! With him daring to rob me of Li Wenhao's woman, I'm going to make him look good!"
was furious with Li Wenhao, and immediately called a group of minions and went to Zhang Sanniu's house to make a big fuss, if it wasn't for the enthusiastic villagers around him, I'm afraid the entire Zhang family would be smashed by him.
"Hehe, Li Wenhao, I didn't expect you to jump out, it's good, it's good......" A sneer flashed in his eyes, and Zhou Ming made a decision in his heart.
……
Two days later, one night, the chief Li Shouzheng's house suddenly came to a bad news, the second son of the chief Li Wenhao, when he was having sex with his wife Zhou, suddenly died of a stroke, the Li family was in chaos, because it was really impossible to find out what was strange, so he had to bury the matter hastily.
Hearing the news of Li Wenhao's death, in private, Zhou Ming smiled very happily, then Li Wenhao's heart is not good, and he is lustful, as long as he drinks a little bit of the [Golden Sword Grass] juice he prepared for him, once he makes violent movements, his heart beats faster, and he is not far from death.
As for how he knew the efficacy of [Golden Sword Grass], after using the [Primary Hunting Card], there were hundreds of poisonous weeds similar to [Golden Sword Grass].
And in this life, his philosophy of survival is: no matter who you are, as long as you oppose me, you have to die!
……
Time is like an arrow, and more than 30 years have passed, over the years, in addition to his wife Wang Xiuniang, Zhou Ming also accepted Li Erya, Sun Qianqian, Zhang Xiaoya and other concubines, although there are often jealous things in the backyard, but these women give birth to their own children, there are also twenty or thirty, only the male has sixteen, plus grandchildren, there are hundreds of people, it can be said that the family is huge.
The family business is big, and Zhou Ming also has his own set of arrangements for his sons, such as more than a dozen village-run enterprises in the village, such as blacksmith shops, carpenter shops, mills, oil mills, textile factories, and brick kiln factories, each son is responsible for a piece, and assists each other in difficulties, and there is no possibility of starvation for the descendants.
In agriculture, Zhou Ming, who has accumulated hundreds of acres of land over the years, is ready to make another big one.
"Daddy, the 'collective farm cooperative' plan proposed by our Zhang family, except for the opposition of the Li family, a big family in the village, the other villagers are very supportive and want to follow our Zhang family!"
"Hehe!" Zhou Ming sneered, as if he had expected it, and said slowly: "According to the amount of land shares, concentrate on the use of ploughing cattle and tools, and then collectively excavate ditches to improve irrigation...... How could the Li family come up with these good things, and it would be good if those mud legs who were not forced to sell their sons and daughters and sell themselves! Our collective farm cooperative plan is digging up the roots of his Li family! It is strange that they do not look for us to work hard!"
"Daddy, I also saw that their Li family was not pleasing to the eye, but Daddy, there are also a lot of men in the Li family, if there is a fight, I am afraid that it will ......" The eldest son said worriedly.
"Don't be afraid," Zhou Ming shook his head with a smile: "In order to deal with their Li family, I have been preparing for many years, Sheng'er, go and call the second and third children over, I will show you something......"
……
A few days later.
In the north of Niujia Village, at the door of Zhang's house, there were two groups of people gathered at this time, each with about 100 people, and the group of people gathered outside were holding sharpened knives and axes, with a cruel smile on their faces.
The group of people in Zhang's courtyard held most hoes and flat poles in their hands, but they were also polished to a shiny finish.
The two crowds shouted and cursed each other, and the situation was on the verge of breaking out.
"The old dog of the Zhang family, if you do any more 'collective farm cooperatives', our Li family will immediately wash the Zhang family with blood!"
"Yes, the bloodshed of the Zhang family!
"Kill into Zhang's house, rob money and rob women!"
At this time, a group of black dots suddenly flew out of Zhangjiayuan, and a pungent smell of sulfur emanated from the air.
"What is this?" In the crowd, a man from the Li family took a black ball with his hand and took a closer look.
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom!"
"Ahh......h
The screams came and went, and it was difficult to disperse for a long time.
