Chapter 1: The Winter Solstice (Part 5b)
The situation was as the old blind man expected, and that night, the officials never came to trouble Cheng Mingzhen again. Just after noon the next day, Li Laojiu ran over again, didn't look at Cheng Mingzhen squarely, and flattered the old blind man, "God, you are really a god." The little ancestor of my family didn't cry all night yesterday. I woke up this morning and honestly ate a big bowl of chicken soup! ”
"Remember what I told you!" The old blind man pinched Li Laojiu with his eyelids and ordered in a low voice.
"That's, that's!" As the cell leader, Li Laojiu didn't feel embarrassed at all to make a gesture to the prisoner, and nodded his head in response, "I went home yesterday to find someone to write it again, and I posted it all next to the couch!" Every morning when I wake up, I will see your old teachings! ”
Speaking of this, he secretly swept Cheng Mingzhen, who was scrolling in the corner of the wall and pretending to sleep, and lowered his voice and said, "It's just that Lin County ...... over there."
"Lin County's order, when did you do it?" The old blind man's white eyeballs rolled up so scary, "Did Guo Zhutou ever urge you again?" You don't have any eyesight, how can you get along? ”
Li Laojiu thought about it, and the two head catchers were indeed not very enthusiastic about the murder of Cheng Mingzhen. Even Jiang Ye, who is usually competing with him for courtesy, seems to have been listless in recent days. This made him even more convinced that the old blind man was iron-mouthed and steel-toothed, so he made another gesture and said in a low voice, "Then let's be confused first." Anyway, it's all a matter of concealment. You always tell Brother Cheng, let him not blame me, I eat this bowl of rice, and if it is pressed tightly, it has to be moved. If you don't press it tightly, you have to be forgiving and forgiving! ”
Knowing that Li Laojiu's second half of the sentence was deliberately said to himself, Cheng Mingzhen still didn't want to open his eyes and ignore the other party. Last night he spent half the night begging the old blind man for advice. It has been analyzed that several enemies who framed themselves are not monolithic. As long as a few people don't coordinate their actions, they have a better chance of getting out. Until you are absolutely sure of getting out, the less contact you have with these people, the safer it is.
couldn't get Cheng Mingzhen's kind response, and Li Laojiu was not angry. He lowered his voice a few more points, and continued to report to the old blind man, "I sent someone to find the road you pointed me out yesterday early this morning, and half an hour ago, the person sent to check on the person who sent to check on the reply has already sent a reply. Indeed......"
He secretly looked at Cheng Mingzhen again, lest the young man listen to these words. The old blind man waved his hand gently, "It's okay, he can't get out, and he can't rob you of the share you deserve." I am lacking a successor in this ability. Look at his bones and bones, maybe it's the disciple God sent to me! ”
"Roar! Then I congratulate you! Li Laojiu hurriedly said hello to the old blind man, but his eyes were full of jealousy when he looked at Cheng Mingzhen. The old blind man in front of him is simply a living immortal, and the surname Cheng doesn't know what kind of shit luck he has taken, and he can still be favored by the gods when he dies.
"There's no need!" The old blind man continued to wave his hand, "At most, he can learn some trivial skills, help people look at feng shui, and calculate the direction is okay." My old man's other skills, with his qualifications, may not be able to learn no matter how he learns! ”
"That's his luck, too!" The jealousy in Li Laojiu's eyes lightened slightly, and he said with a smile.
"I can't see with my eyes. So, he will be needed for something in the future! The old blind man sighed and said sadly. Tell me the results of your search,
"...... this morning," Li Laojiu's voice was lowered, lest a third person listen to the secret, "This morning the brothers sent a letter back to say that they had indeed found the entrance to the cave you mentioned at the southern foot of the Silengzi Mountain outside Chengcheng. But the hole was so narrow and deep that it was impossible for anyone to get in. Stick the cake on a rope and dip it, and you can come up a little bit every time......"
"A little is enough, don't be greedy. Windfall must have horizontal virtue, and we are not so blessed. According to the prior agreement, everyone will share some, which is enough to eat and drink for a lifetime! The old blind man's voice was also very low, but it was just for Cheng Mingzhen to hear.
At this time, Cheng Mingzhen finally knew why he was also a prisoner and the old blind man was treated like this. It seems that he actually holds a big treasure in his hands. And the reason why Li Laojiu and others respect the old blind man is probably generally because of the other party's unfathomable divine calculation, and the other half is because of this windfall.
"Don't be greedy, don't be greedy. You can rest assured. Brethren will accept it when they see it! Li Laojiu's voice came again, but it didn't sound sincere. Your old share will be stored in the pawnshop in the city according to your old orders. Pick it up whenever you need it! ”
"Give me this apprentice a share, and treat it as your subordinates run errands!" The old blind man was unceremoniously, pointed at Cheng Mingzhen with his hand, and ordered in a low voice.
"Well said, well said!" Li Laojiu was unhappy in his heart, but he didn't dare to protest. Secretly thought to himself: Anyway, your old guy doesn't know how much we can take? Wait for Lao Tzu to dig out all this floating wealth, and give you no one, see what you can do with Lao Tzu?
As if he had guessed Li Laojiu's thoughts, Duan Blind sighed softly, "People, you can't be too dissatisfied. It looks like real money, but it's actually a little ghost chasing life. That's it, that's it, if you don't believe it, I won't force you. Try to take it yourself, as much as you can! ”
"Just wait for my good news!" Li Laojiu's favorite thing to hear is this sentence, and he can't wait to respond. Turning around, he followed the restaurant man he had come in, cleaned up the table, put a new dish on the table, and added with a smile, "This is a little bit of the brother's heart." You have always given us such great benefits, we can't let you never even eat a mouthful of hot rice! ”
"Alright, alright, since you're busy, let's go quickly!" Duan Blind waved his hand impatiently.
Li Laojiu walked backwards and left, with a smile on his face not diminishing at all. Turning around, his eyes immediately became as cold as a knife, and he secretly said in his heart, "Hmph! For the sake of you saving my son's life and letting Lao Tzu make a windfall, Lao Tzu will hold you for a few days first. When Lao Tzu digs out this money, who will be the unlucky cell boss again! ”
Filled with a thirst for wealth, he hurried away. Only Duan Blind and Cheng Mingzhen were left in the cell. The old man looked at the table full of food and shook his head slightly, "Evil obstacles." It's all evil! You want to bring disaster yourself, no wonder I! ”
After muttering, a smile broke on his face again, "Get up, don't pretend to be asleep." I know you've heard you. Accompany my old man to drink two sips, eat and drink to your heart's content, and then find a way to help you get out! ”
"Thank you, Master, for saving your life!" After a night of recovery, Cheng Mingzhen now has the strength to walk, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed heavily to the old blind man.
This time, Duan Tiezui, who was chattering with the gods, didn't dodge anymore, sat at the table and had enough of Cheng Mingzhen's three heads, stretched out an arm, and picked him up directly. "You went alone to save the people of the city. I also admire this courage and responsibility. Therefore, it is not a violation of the oath to accept you into the wall of my door. But you have to remember that you can't blackmail your skills for evil in this life, otherwise, even if I can't control you, God will clean you up! ”
"Disciple, disciple doesn't dare!" Cheng Mingzhen agreed again and again, but was controlled by the old blind man with one hand and couldn't bend down.
"You kid!" As if he had been reminded of a lot of things, the old blind man continued to sigh, "You kid has a quick heart, and your roots and bones are also strange." But there is no charter to do things, it is all based on a spirit. Hi! One thought of kindness may benefit thousands of people. If you think evil, you will be infamous for a hundred years. That's it, that's it, you don't understand this now. Let's sit down and eat, let's talk while eating and talking! ”
"Yes!" Cheng Mingzhen agreed, sat down opposite the master in a proper manner, poured wine and vegetables, and was very busy. The old blind man did not want to be courteous, knocked on the table with his chopsticks, and whispered, "Don't do so much." I am your master, not your master. What are you doing so subserviently? Eat your own, what you touched with chopsticks, I still don't think I'm foaming! ”
Cheng Mingzhen didn't dare to disobey, so he had to carefully take the bowl and chew slowly. From the conversation between the old blind man and Li Laojiu just now, he learned that in order to buy him more time, the master revealed the location of a treasure to Li Laojiu. This life-saving grace is simply heavier than the mountain and deeper than the sea. If his father is still alive, that is, the father can make such a great sacrifice for his son. If someone else is replaced, even if it is an uncle, nephew, or nephew, I am afraid that they will have to weigh the weight of the treasure first, and then think about whether human life is worth saving.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes to see the old blind man's white head, and tears welled up in his eyes.
His cautious and restrained appearance was very disliked by the old blind man. He rolled his eyes and said sharply, "Eat vegetables." What are you doing just looking at me? Could it be that if you look at me more, you will grow your ability? ”
"Hmm!" Although Cheng Mingzhen was trained, he felt warm in his heart. Bow your head and pick up the vegetables with your chopsticks. Suddenly, his hand shook slightly, and the chains tinkled non-stop, "Master, you, you can see me looking at you." Master......"
"Mouthy!" The old blind man glared at him fiercely. "Stupid and talkative! Of course I can see it. Whoever says that there are more white eyeballs will definitely not be able to see things. You stupid boy, it's taken so long to show up! ”
"Me! I! Cheng Mingzhen was surprised and delighted, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes. The old blind man shook his head angrily, "Manly man, it's okay to cry with your nose." Look at you, tears are falling on the dishes! My old blind man took in your stupid apprentice, and he was really blind! ”
After that, he looked around vigilantly, and now no one was eavesdropping, and said with a smile: "People live in the world, pretending to be deaf and dumb, pretending to be crazy and stupid, and pretending to turn a blind eye, all of which are skills." If you learn everything, you will be sure that everything will go smoothly in the future! ”
Seeing Cheng Mingzhen's dazed face, he couldn't help but want to use chopsticks to give the other party a stick. But after thinking about it, his previous apprentice was much more free and smart than the current one, and as a result, he still had to avoid him every day? Like Cheng Mingzhen, who is not too smart or too stupid, accepts him as an apprentice, maybe his creation will be greater in the future!
Thinking of this, the old man who had seen the world was dumbfounded.
