Chapter Thirty-Nine: Deep Hatred
In the countryside, for thousands of years, most people have valued only three things, one is a field for growing grain, one is a house for eating and sleeping, and the other is an ancestral tomb for sleeping after death.
Many honest people, if you bully him, scold him and beat him, he doesn't even dare to say a word back, but if you rob him of his land, burn his house, and smash his ancestral grave, no matter how honest people are, they will fight hard with you, because this is the bottom line of dignity.
And now, when we look at the ruined temple, we feel that our dignity is being trampled on the ground and rubbed, and Liu Laodao, who has always been calm, is trembling at this time, not frightened, but angry.
"Third Uncle ·····"
The village chief came over to explain the situation to Liu Laodao, the broken temple was on fire two hours ago, and after the fire, the villagers came out to help extinguish the fire, and the fire was extinguished ten minutes ago.
Most of our things were burned in our house, and only a few things were rescued by the villagers, and the key point was that they found a white gasoline drum at the gate of the yard when they were fighting the fire, and it was obvious that someone had deliberately set it on fire.
"I know, let the big guy go back and rest, I'll go to the door tomorrow to thank you, it's too late today"
Liu Laodao arched his hand to the village chief and thanked him, his expression was very wooden, Liu Laodao had endured it to the extreme, but he did not attack in front of the villagers, lest something bad happen.
The village chief beckoned the villagers to go back, and our shelter was burned down, and he knew that we were in a very bad mood, so he didn't say much.
"Master, what should I do, you can say a word"
As soon as the people left, I said to Liu Laodao, the anger in my heart at this time is about to burn my reason.
It's too bullying, it's too disgusting, you do bad things, we stop it, this is a natural thing, you fight with us, you can't win us, that's because you yourself have no ability, but take advantage of our absence, burn our house, this is despicable and shameless, indecent and bottomless.
If we die, there will never be a word of complaint, that is, we have no ability, we deserve it, but what is it now?
"What should I do, is it still a man if I have revenge? Wait, wait"
Liu Laodao replied, although his tone was light, but I felt his anger, Liu Laodao had already moved to kill, if he found that bastard now, Liu Laodao would definitely not be polite to him.
"I'm going to Qinghe Town"
"Come back, we'll talk about it tomorrow"
I immediately wanted to turn around and go to Qinghe Town, I want to go to Mrs. Chen, Boss Chen must still have the news of that Qin Ye, find out, then take revenge.
However, I was stopped by Liu Laodao, telling me not to be impulsive first, and I will talk about it tomorrow.
"Master, a gentleman takes revenge, it's not too late for ten years, the villain takes revenge, day long, I don't want to be a gentleman, I want to be a villain"
"Are you going to look for death now? These people are dealing with us one after another, if you count that you will go to Qinghe Town, do you want to die?"
I don't quite understand Liu Laodao's plan, but his words made me stop, yes, these guys are plotting to kill us one after another, if they are waiting for me in Qinghe Town, then I will be caught in the net, not to mention anything else, even if they hit me with a car, I don't know where to hide.
Liu Laodao didn't say anything more, just squatted in front of the rescued things, slowly cleaned up, classified them one by one, and put them away.
I waited in place for a few minutes, and silently joined in, and there were very few things that were snatched out, basically some daily necessities, but these things were purchased by us with great painstaking efforts.
Nine years ago, before Liu Laodao took me in, he was a bachelor, and the broken temple was not even his home, but could only be called a place to sleep.
After I came, we bought things little by little, pots and pans, tables, chairs and benches were replaced with new ones, there were rice cookers, stew pots for soup, small TVs, and all kinds of small furniture.
Little by little, we have saved up over the years, and the broken family is worth ten thousand, these things are very ordinary in most families, but in our eyes, they are of great significance.
But now it's gone, most of the things are gone, and even Liu Laodao's compass, robe, and peachwood sword haven't been snatched out, and the guys we eat are gone.
And our money, I have hidden the private money for a long time, and we have helped the Chen family to do it twice, but all of them are gone, this money, we are ready to save, I even have a plan, save a little more, I will renovate my family's old house that was destroyed by the flood before.
But it's gone, it's gone, our hope is burned by a fire, and this hatred is not shared.
After dawn, Liu Laodao took me to the village to thank me door to door, originally we were supposed to bring gifts to the door, but we had no money, except for the little money on our bodies, there was nothing left.
"Third uncle, the ancestral hall in the village can still be lived, come back to the village"
In the end, the village chief told us that there is an ancestral hall in the village, which has a history of hundreds of years, which is shared by our Liu family, and the flood nine years ago has not washed away, but it has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is very dilapidated, which is no different from the previous broken temple.
"No need, just give the original disaster relief tent to two, the communism in the village, we can't use it"
Liu Laodao refused, the ancestral hall is shared, no one lives there, because many times in the countryside there will happen to borrow and take it for yourself, although we will not do this, but we are also afraid of being said, Liu Laodao and I are both people who cherish their reputation.
The village chief didn't say anything, and he couldn't force it, and it would be a little troublesome to live in, but the tent was given, which was sent by the disaster relief team when the flood was sent back when the flood receded, and it was not returned after the flood receded, so it was put in the ancestral hall, and it was basically not needed.
Liu Laodao and I each carried a tent and left, returned to the ruined temple, leveled the ground, then set up the tent, and moved the surviving things to the tent.
As soon as the matter was settled, Mrs. Chen came, took two people, drove a car, and as soon as the people got out of the car, the remaining two people moved a lot of things from the car.
"Master Liu, I know the matter, I'm sorry, no matter how you say it, this matter is because of our family, the Chen family still has a house in the town, if you want, you can move in, I'm sorry..."
This area of Liujia Village is densely populated, and many people saw the fire last night, and it should have spread at this time, and we were a little surprised that Mrs. Chen came so soon.
"Mrs. Chen, Ming people don't say secret words, we won't live in your house, you can say something."
Liu Laodao waved his hand and interrupted her words, we don't even want to live in the ancestral hall, how can we pick up people's teeth and go to live in the Chen family's house?
However, this Mrs. Chen seems to be overly enthusiastic about us, Liu Laodao's reminder, I just remembered that there is nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, Mrs. Chen's thoughts, I'm afraid it won't be so simple.
"Master Liu, since you mentioned it, then I won't hide it, Master Liu is a man who is impatient and righteous, and his reputation in Qinghe Town is a well-known thing, but this time Master Liu's house was burned, it shouldn't be accidental, this shouldn't be a coincidence with our family's affairs."
"So, you want revenge?"
"Why don't you want to take revenge, my husband died so miserably, now it's not too much to say that the family is ruined, I also know that our family is not so upright, but we can't be killed in vain, I'm a woman, and now the situation at home is not good, there is no progress on the police, but I still want to take revenge, please Master Liu help me"
Mrs. Chen's face was full of fierceness, and she bowed deeply to Liu Laodao.
A month ago, she was a rich wife with a privileged life, her husband took care of the family, her daughter was filial, her relatives were harmonious, and her life was carefree, but in a month, everything changed.
The filial daughter is gone, and even the corpse can't be found, the husband of the Gu family was murdered, and even the skin was peeled off, making the Chen family a laughing stock in Qinghe Town, not to mention the loss of money, just the compensation of the Eight King Kong families is a huge amount of money, and without Boss Chen's sitting, the originally harmonious relatives in the family also began to show their fangs and frequently attack her.
Widowed, widowed, and broken, Mrs. Chen's experience is more miserable than ours, and the cause of this incident is, in her opinion, that Boss Chen met that Qin Ye.
Now that Qin Ye dares to come back to commit the crime, this makes Mrs. Chen even more uncomfortable, if this fire is placed in the Chen family, then can she still escape?
So she also has to get revenge, she's a woman, and now she can't do it herself, so finding a like-minded person to work with is the best thing.
"You're right, our enemies are all the same person, and I took this matter"
Liu Laodao didn't hesitate, Mrs. Chen's help is a big arm for us, and it does not conflict with our revenge, so there is nothing next.
