Luo was always born as a soldier, he met a very iron friend when he was a soldier, it can be said that he was a friend of life and death, but Mr. Luo's friend's life has deteriorated in recent years, the reason is that the friend has suffered several fires in recent years, and this fire may happen again, their family seems to have annoyed the god of fire, so that the god of fire frequently visits their house. It has reached the point where it is impossible to prevent it. Life is also almost in a desperate situation.
Since it is a friend of life and death, friends are in trouble, of course, they should lend a hand. Mr. Luo felt that the affairs of his friend's house were too strange, so he decided to ask Cheng Yao to help them have a look.
That friend's house was far away from Nanshi, and early in the morning of the weekend, Mr. Luo and Cheng Yao drove to Mr. Luo's friend's house.
On the way, Mr. Luo told Cheng Yao about his friend's house. Mr. Luo's friend is surnamed Qiao, and Luo is always a buddy in the same dormitory when he was in the army, and this comrade-in-arms once saved Mr. Luo's life, so they are friends in life and death, with deep feelings and close to each other.
After Mr. Luo and Lao Qiao were demobilized from the army, they each returned to their hometowns, although the two were far apart, but they kept in touch, and Lao Qiao was assigned to work in an agency unit after returning home, and his life was comfortable and stable. After Mr. Luo went back, he went to an immortal company, worked for two years, and felt really bored, so he resigned and started his own business, and the business was still going well.
Although Lao Qiao is not as rich as Mr. Luo, he works in government agencies, and he is also protected from drought and flood, which is more than enough than the bottom. It's okay to have a calmer mind.
Soon, the two married and had children respectively, and each started a family.
In the first few years, the old Qiao family of three was safe and sound, and the life was quite harmonious, but later, strange things happened, so that the peaceful days of the old Qiao family no longer existed.
It was one night five years ago, when the four-year-old son of the old Qiao family celebrated his birthday. As usual for birthdays, the family of three happily sat around the dining table, turned off the lights, lit four candles on a birthday cake, and sang birthday songs.
For some reason, candles lit the tablecloth, and then the wooden dining table. The fire burned quickly and fiercely, and the entire table instantly became a huge ball of fire.
Old Joe's wife and son were stunned by the sudden fire. Fortunately, Lao Qiao is a soldier after all, and he is flexible and agile. The fire was quickly extinguished.
A happy birthday celebration turned into a disaster, and a good table was devastated and miserable. This birthday, the heart was beating, the family broke up unhappily, and the son was also sent to the hospital with a fever that night due to excessive fright. It took a week to recover.
As time passed, the incident was slowly forgotten, and the old Qiao couple thought it was just an accident and didn't think too much. Little did they know that from then on, their family began the road of disaster.
One afternoon more than a year later, another fire broke out in Lao Qiao's house.
That day, Lao Qiao also invited several colleagues to come to the house to drink and eat, Lao Qiao and his colleagues were eating, drinking and chatting in the living room, and his wife was busy in the kitchen.
Lao Qiao and his colleagues were chatting happily, only to hear a scream from his wife in the kitchen, followed by a loud explosion, Lao Qiao and his colleagues ran to the door of the kitchen, only to see a sea of fire in the kitchen, Lao Qiao rushed into the fire customs to get gas, rescued his wife, fortunately, there were many people at that time, and they extinguished the fire together. did not cause stricter consequences.
On that occasion, Lao Qiao and his wife were both burned and spent a month in the hospital before recovering.
Later, according to Lao Qiao's wife, she was stir-frying on the stove, and the fire caused by the fire burning the rag placed aside, but she felt that the fire was burning very strangely, because the fire was too fast and fierce, and it became a sea of fire before people had time to react.
But everyone didn't think too much about it, and they all thought that it was just an accident that happened due to the improper operation of Old Joe's wife. Old Joe's wife also blamed herself for this for a while.
It wasn't until another year passed that a fire broke out in Lao Qiao's house again, and Lao Qiao's wife, as well as relatives and friends, realized that something was wrong. It is said that there are only three things, and three fires in three years happened to the same family, such a coincidence is really incredible.
The fire broke out when Lao Qiao and his wife went to work, their son went to school, and there was no one at home. Later, the result of the police investigation was that the power supply line was aging.
That fire burned all the belongings that Lao Qiao and his wife had worked hard to manage for many years. Because of the fire and the neighbors, the neighbors were also compensated. A fire made Lao Qiao destitute from then on.
After this fire, Lao Qiao and his wife thought about it, and always felt that there were fires in their home one after another, which was not a simple mistake or an accident, there must be a reason for this, and the couple went to see the master for this, and the master said that it was because they offended the god of the stove. I also obeyed the master's method and worshiped the god of the stove. And did some rituals.
The third fire completely destroyed Old Joe's home. It also burned their once peaceful and happy life. But the family's suffering is far from over.
Lao Qiao's family of three, who had nothing, had to temporarily live at his father-in-law's mother-in-law's house.
A year later, the fire broke out again, this time at the house of the borrowed father-in-law.
This time the fire also started strangely, a few children were playing in the bedroom, and somehow they set the sheets on fire, but fortunately they were put out in time, and the damage was not too strict. But it scared the old lady. I went to the hospital and lay down for a few days before I recovered.
Lao Qiao's family of three did not dare to live in the old father-in-law's mother-in-law's house anymore, for fear of implicating the elderly.
The strange things of Lao Qiao's family soon spread around him, people talked about it, relatives and friends also avoided Lao Qiao's family, and no one was willing to rent a house to Lao Qiao's family of three. There are no hotels willing to let them stay. It's no wonder that fire and water are ruthless! A fire, a house will burn down in a moment, no matter how big the family business is, it can't stop the fire, and Lao Qiao's family of three has become homeless.
In desperation, Lao Qiao bought a small piece of land on the outskirts of the city and built a simple small house, so that he finally had a place to stay.
Half a year ago, Lao Qiao's simple house suffered a fire again, although the loss was not large, but Lao Qiao's wife couldn't stand it, suffered from Yan zhòng's depression, and committed suicide several times. Also, no woman can withstand such disasters and blows. And such a disaster is endless, there is no end, such a life means that there is never hope, and it is strange not to be driven crazy.
Old Joe's life was completely disrupted, and it was like a pot of porridge
