Chapter 3 One side of the land
That night, Zhang Hanming discussed what Gao Bo said with his family, because everyone has been old neighbors for many years, and they know the roots, this is a good deal! decided to let my mother go and discuss with Gao Bo first. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The only thing that is a little scrupulous is that it feels a little inappropriate to let Zhang Hanming do this business as a young man, and in the end, it was Zhang Hanming's mother who made the decision and asked someone to see the store, and Gao Bo has always asked someone to see the store.
In the next few days, Zhang Hanming has been taking care of the new house, and the old furniture has been almost disposed of, just waiting for the new furniture to come. In the evening of this day, Zhang Hanming moved the nest to the new house alone, and the rest of the family worked in the restaurant, so he was lazy and troublesome, so he still lived in the old place.
Zhang Hanming tidied up the room and bed a little, and looked at the time, 20 o'clock. Decided to go downstairs to the yard for a walk.
This piece of villas are still newly built, it used to be a wasteland, and the small saplings on the road in front of the door are still just planted, and it is still barren as far as the eye can see, but the surrounding villas have been inhabited, or a few years, it is surrounded by an oasis, and Americans generally like to plant flowers and grass and trees in the yard.
Taking advantage of the bright street lamps on the road, Zhang Hanming strolled around the yard while planning to plant something in the yard. Before I knew it, I came to the land temple behind the courtyard.
Li Huimei told Zhang Hanming to light incense for 7 days. The incense and candles lit not long ago have not been burned out, although it is simple, but the small land temple is surrounded by fireworks, and it seems to be a little tall? Well... Anyway, Zhang Hanming felt a little ethereal.
Zhang Hanming squatted in front of the Land Temple, looked at the statue of the Land Gong, and couldn't help laughing!
Zhang Hanming whispered to himself: "The land lord... Land Lord! We have invited you from all over China to settle in the United States, and if there is any diplomatic dispute, you can't blame us! ”
"Hmm... The crutches are a little crooked! Land Public... I'll help you get things right! ”
“f**k...”
Zhang Hanming stretched out his hand and wanted to put the land man's crutches on the right spot, but at the moment of contact, the miniature version of the crutches was gone, and the small wooden sign was also gone, because it was close, Zhang Hanming could see it clearly, they were gone!
Zhang Hanming's heart tightened, and he looked around carefully: "Hell! ”
Although Zhang Hanming doesn't believe in gods and ghosts on the lips, he would rather believe in them than in his heart! Such a strange scene... Let Zhang Hanming's heart beat faster, and a chill welled up from his heart!
"The land is ... Sorry, I didn't mean to! Don't be surprised, you're busy... I'll go first! ”
Zhang Hanming hurriedly ran back to his bedroom on the second floor, closed the door, closed the lock, and sat on the bed. Zhang Hanming reached out and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and thought in his mind: "This is not scientific..."
"It's really gone! Someone kidding me? No way.... The view of the neighborhood is very good, and there is absolutely no one else. The crutches and the small wooden sign are gone, but the statue is still there. ”
"What's the mystery of these two things? Well... Why is it okay when Mom takes it out? Grandpa dug it up... Is it a fetish? ”
Zhang Hanming thought that he would not do anything bad in his life, and he was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night! Slowly calmed down.
Zhang Hanming slowly looked around the room, cleared his throat, and said in a low voice: "Ahem... Crutch... Where did the wooden sign go? It's weird! ”
"Your eggs!"
Zhang Hanming looked at the enlarged version of the crutch that magically appeared in his hand with a magical expression, and then found that the small wooden sign was hanging on his waist!
It is a crutch made from the roots of a tree, the main body is dark red, the lower part is straight, the height of the handshake is turned, and it is irregularly twisted after the difficulty, and there are a few small vibrant leaves growing on the root of the tree at the top.
Hold the cane in your hand, the weight is just right, walk a few steps ... It's pretty handy! It's like a custom-made one!
Picking up the small wooden sign on his waist, Zhang Hanming's face was tight, dark red, and the wooden card could see a clear annual ring, with the word "land" written on one side and the smaller font written "Zhang Hanming" on the other side.
Zhang Hanming looked at the wooden sign with dull eyes, and for 10 seconds, he said to himself after the difficulty: "I have become an old man of the land!!"
After 10 minutes.
"Come out..."
"I receive..."
"Come out..."
"I receive...."
Zhang Hanming looked at the magical changes on his hands and waist with joy on his face, this guy is quite hilarious, people who don't think much should be more happy!
Zhang Hanming played for a while, returned to normal, and bowed three times to the window: "Full of immortals, what should I do next?" Can that fairy give me some pointers? By the way, teach some spells or something..."
What a toss...
Zhang Hanming gave up, there was no fairy to pay attention to him at all, and he tried crutches and wooden signs, and they couldn't speak!
Zhang Hanming suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly came to the land temple in the backyard. Before you get closer, you can see that the smoky land temple is revealing a faint layer of golden light, which feels very solemn and peaceful. Squatting down, it was confirmed that the crutches and small wooden plaques on the statue were indeed gone.
"Crutches, wooden signs, go back to the Land Temple." As soon as the words fell, I watched the two things return to their original places, and I was relieved, if it wasn't difficult, my mother wouldn't have a good time!
After a closer look, he found that his name was still on the small wooden sign, and as soon as the thought moved, the name dissipated.
"Good baby! Truly do what you want! ”
Zhang Hanming was lying on the bed, not a little sleepy, and accidentally he seemed to have become a piece of land, I don't know if it was good or bad! However, there is one thing Zhang Hanming can be sure of, the land is the righteous god. Well... Although it is the lowest level of immortals, as the saying goes, don't take the land for immortals! The size is also a fairy!
Zhang Hanming was puzzled, he became a land lord, what should he do? The land seems to be in charge of the abundant harvest and the safety of one party, and it seems to be in charge of birth, old age, sickness and death? The land is supposed to be able to see ghosts, right? Now that the land is owned by the public... Are the ghosts still far away? Thinking of this, Zhang Hanming tightened the quilt on his body!
What are you afraid of... I'm a landlord now! No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a fairy, and the demons and monsters should not dare to get close. Are you sure?? All right... Zhang Hanming was not sure, but his heart was still a little empty.
In his thoughts, Zhang Hanming woke up until dawn.
After casually freshening up, Zhang Hanming came to the land temple, everything was normal, facing the rising sun, Zhang Hanming unconsciously closed his eyes and felt it. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and Zhang Hanming understood that the entire Barstow was his own territory. I've really become a piece of land!
If there are outsiders here, they will definitely go crazy, because Zhang Hanming has disappeared!
Zhang Hanming walked slowly on crutches on the street. Although it looks very uncoordinated, he is young on crutches, and he walks a little shyly, if passers-by can see it, they must think that Zhang Hanming is a psychopath!
Zhang Hanming doesn't care, he is happy at the meeting, and he is sure that no one can see him, and he is still very happy in his heart! The head spun quickly: "This is the spell of the land?" Stealth... Cow! Ha ha... Something to do later... Isn't that convenient? Well... Well... I'm a god, I can't think crookedly! That's right... Won't the land be deserted? ”
Zhang Hanming's mind moved, and he appeared in his restaurant in an instant. Looking at the empty restaurant, in motion. Zhang Hanming appeared on the top floor of the tallest building in Barstow, looking down at his relatively neatly planned site, the hurried flow of people, and the stop-and-go traffic, Zhang Hanming took a deep breath: "This feeling... Village tyrant? In my territory, you'll have to listen to me...! ”
Humming a little song, Zhang Hanming walked around the street energetically all the way, and walked for more than an hour, Zhang Hanming stopped, looked at the Gobi Desert in front of him, this is the end of his territory, and his mind moved, Zhang Hanming looked at the dividing line in the other three directions, most of the Barstow is included, and outside the dividing line is the Gobi and some factories.
Zhang Hanming flashed to the vicinity of the restaurant, found a corner, showed his figure, and hid two magic weapons.
Zhang Hanming casually ate some breakfast upstairs in the restaurant, and saw his mother cleaning the living room, so he hurried over.
"Mom. Sister, they all went to the restaurant? I'll clean it up for you. ”
Li Huimei looked at her son with a smile: "Overslept today?" They're all down, you don't need to do anything about you, I'll clean it up right away. ”
Zhang Hanming was helping to clean up, and suddenly thought of something, and his eyes rolled: "Mom, do you say that there is really a land lord in the world?" ”
Li Huimei looked at her son in surprise: "Why are you asking this?" Aren't you unbelieving? ”
"Hey... Mom, where did I say I didn't believe it? Do you think there really is? What has been passed down from the older generation, I think there is still some truth to it! ”
"Hmm... My grandmother, your name is Grandma. One thing was said to me when I was a child. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Hmm... It's your wife who says she's your mother-in-law. Yes... It's your wife's mother-in-law, who turns out to be psychic, and has seen the land lord. ”
"Wait.. Mom, it's a bit of a mess. If my mother-in-law is still alive, she would be in her 90s, and if my mother-in-law is still alive... I think I'm over 170 years old, right? ”
Li Huimei frowned: "It should be about 200, your wife is the youngest." Why do you want to do this, don't interrupt... It was a long time ago, anyway. At that time, your wife was a ghost woman in her hometown, and she could see ghosts. In the past, if someone was born or passed away, they had to report to the Land Temple, and when a person died, the ghost woman would first bring her soul to the Land Temple, and then take it from the Land Gong to the City God Temple, and the City God would judge the good and evil, the good ghosts would go to reincarnation, and the bad ghosts would go to the eighteen layers of hell. Well... There should be a land god. Tell you to read more books, you don't know that there are gods in your head? ”
Zhang Hanming was sweating, but he still nodded: "Then isn't our wife also half an immortal?" Can you pass yin and yang? ”
Li Huimei also nodded: "It's not!" Your wife lived to be 100 years old! Those who have merit in doing this kind of thing can live longer. Anyway, that's what the old people in the family say. ”
Li Huimei frowned again: "Why are you asking this?" Go and do your thing. ”
"I'll just ask, okay... I'm going to my new house, and furniture will be delivered today. ”
Zhang Hanming teleported to the restaurant, so he had to walk to his new home. Why not teleport? Low profile... Let's keep a low profile! To be seen ... It's a big problem. Zhang Hanming doesn't want to be a guinea pig, don't forget that the United States is the land of the master, although Zhang Hanming has confidence in the Chinese immortals, but he doesn't think that the land god can do it over God. Don't foreigners like to say that God is everywhere?
Sitting on the outdoor rattan chair that had just been delivered, Zhang Hanming cocked his feet and fell into deep thought.
First of all, no matter why he became the lord of the land, in fact, he is already the land. The responsibility of the land should be to ensure a good harvest, and it seems that there is no farmland on its own land!
Keeping people and livestock safe, this should prevent the harassment of ghosts. If someone told Zhang Hanming a few days ago that there are ghosts in the world, Zhang Hanming would definitely scoff at them, but now he is very sure that there are ghosts in the world. Although he hasn't seen it yet, if he really wants to see it, he will probably see a lot of it when he goes out at night, Zhang Hanming is not ready to be mentally prepared, so he decided to slow it down in advance.
In addition, according to what my mother said, the land should be responsible for signing for the ghosts who have just died, although there are a lot of Chinese in Barsto, there are really few who are old, basically the same as Gao Bo, when they are old, they will return to their roots! The ghosts of other races don't have anything to do with themselves! People have God, Allah or something.
Zhang Hanming suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but say to himself: "Oops... Be the land in God's land! Is this a land grab? Can God say yes? Isn't this a slap in the face of God? Nima... The slap in the face hit God on the head, is this a long life for idle? In the past, Western religions were not soft on paganism! Although it is a legal society now, I am not stupid enough to think that the world is really peaceful! ”
Zhang Hanming's heart tightened, and he muttered softly: "Low-key... Keep a low profile! ”
As soon as the words fell, the itchy Zhang Hanming tried to control the chair he was sitting on again, and the chair magically slowly hung in the air! Zhang Hanming was overjoyed: "We're also a cow!" Stop... Stop... Keep a low profile! ”
