Volume 1 A Phoenix and a Phoenix Chapter 1 Ordinary
"Grandpa, what about my parents."
It's been nineteen years since I said this, and I forget how many times I've asked, anyway, I haven't seen my parents since I can remember, except for my grandfather, who had a relationship with me.
In front of me, a man who is over half a hundred years old and holds a cigarette gun in his hand, although the cigarette gun can no longer keep up with the times, even the seven masters who are similar to my grandfather have thrown away the cigarette gun and replaced it with a cigarette, but my grandfather is still reluctant to throw away the cigarette gun, probably because of nostalgia.
My grandfather listened to me and asked, and at first he beat me, but now he is too lazy to beat me, so he took a puff of cigarette and held back my eyes, but did not answer me, and asked again, "There are only a few days left in the summer vacation, and I will tell you when you go to college."
As soon as I heard this, I felt a burst of contempt in my heart, because when I was in elementary school and junior high school, I also asked, and my grandfather said the same, but he is my grandfather, I know what kind of temper he has, I don't eat soft and hard, I want to ask hard, and I may have to beat me.
"Little Lizi, hurry up, Uncle Qian is sprinkling fish behind the village, let's go and have a look, get some fish and drink soup at night."
I just wanted to speak, but a big man of more than 1.8 meters outside my door pushed open the door and shouted as he walked: "Hurry up, hurry up."
I glanced at my grandfather. Grandpa smiled at me, "Go ahead, the tender strips are big, I'm also a little hungry, I want to drink some fish soup at night."
As soon as I heard this, I was overjoyed, and I thought that I would be able to ask if I drank more, so I nodded, "Okay, I'll buy some wine by the way, and let's drink some in the evening."
My grandfather couldn't see my thoughts, so he got up and took the cigarette gun and hit it on my head, glaring, "Bastard boy, think I live long, or how to drop, if I think I live long, buy two cylinders, and we will die together."
My heart tightened, and I hurriedly waved my hand, I didn't want to touch my head, and hurriedly said, "I'll go first, grandpa."
As I spoke, I looked at my gang with a puzzled look. As soon as I went out, Gangzi looked at me, "What's the matter, Lizi, you provoked your grandfather again".
I gave him a blank look, "What's the matter, you want to take two sips too".
Gangzi waved his hand, "How can it, how good the relationship between your two is, the whole village knows, how can I rob you of your wine."
Gangzi, named Cui Gang, I grew up playing small, it can also be said to be my cousin, his grandfather and my grandfather are brothers, they are big guys from childhood to adulthood, we are afraid of both of us at this age in the village, as for why, take off their pants and stuff mud into them, etc.
After speaking, Gangzi grabbed my wrist and said, "Don't ink, hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to grab a good one."
As soon as I heard this, I became interested, and I could think that my grandfather said that he was hungry for fish soup, so I turned my face and ran back and said, "Gangzi, you go first, you can do two, I'll go home and get the sack."
When Gangzi heard this, he smiled and said, "Hey, you kid is trying to grab the big head, okay, you go and come back quickly."
We didn't go far, and soon I came to the door of the house, but as soon as I arrived at the door, I squinted, and the big yellow dog in the yard was moved outside by my grandfather. It's someone from the house.
My grandfather raised me since I was a child, and I also had a profession of fortune telling, and I knew this, but my grandfather never counted it in front of me. This is the thing I'm most curious about besides my parents. The others are this rhubarb, and the average rhubarb dog has to return to the west for decades, but my family grew up with me since I was a child, and I am still full of energy, and I can't see any problems.
"Someone is coming, I'm just leaving, grandpa is okay."
As I spoke, I touched the rhubarb head that was looking at me and said, "Rhubarb, there are a few people."
Rhubarb whimpered, but I could hear a smile.
Slowly pushed the door open and walked in. I walked to the place where I threw groceries on the side of the yard, ready to take a sack or two and leave, not wanting to make my grandfather angry.
"Li Hansheng, what are you going to do about your grandson."
But I'm about to leave, but this listen, isn't Li Hansheng my grandfather, I was looking at the voice of the person who spoke, it should also be an old man over half a hundred years old, but this voice is unfamiliar, and I don't want the local person's accent, but it's almost there, which means that the person who is speaking is also from this province.
As soon as I heard that it was about me, I also became interested, took two steps and squatted in the corner, and pricked up my ears.
"Hehe, he's an ordinary person now, what do you want."
As I spoke, I heard my grandfather knock his cigarette gun. I didn't hear the outsider speak, and my grandfather continued, "It's not that you haven't seen his life secretly, although he has a catastrophe this year, but who hasn't robbed it, no matter what the catastrophe, the big catastrophe, the small catastrophe, and the death catastrophe are all providential, the era of my Li family has long passed, you go back, I have seen it, my grandson is an ordinary person's life, he has nothing to do in his life, marries a wife and has children, and he will live a life in peace and stability."
I listened in a daze, what, life and death, I couldn't understand.
I was still thinking about it, but the outsider smiled coldly: "Li Hansheng, you might as well calculate another hexagram, and see, you are talking after reading it."
My grandfather didn't say anything, and I could see the smell of fire outside for both of them.
It didn't take long for my grandfather to sigh as if he had compromised, and in a moment I heard something shaking.
Then there was no sound, I didn't know that I thought the two of them were gone, but I was just beginning to wonder, and my grandfather's surprised voice shouted, "This, this, away from Sankan, life and death."
"Hehe, how about Li Hansheng, leave, now the summer heat is about to reach the summer solstice, as for Sankan, I don't believe you can't see it."
I was confused when I heard it. What a summer solstice.
"Three kans, three kans, broken, broken".
"Hehe, compared to what you already know, your grandson is not in a good situation now."
Suddenly I heard the sound of my grandfather standing up, I was startled, picked up the sack, looked at the wall of my house was not much high, I like to exercise when I go to school, this bit of arm strength is still there, my hand is lying down, a force, I directly turned out, and ran towards the big fish pond behind the village.
Although it is behind the village, this fish pond also has a history of forty or fifty years, at that time the village was poor, so he beat the money and tendered a big fish pond, which looks like a lake, very wide and long, and digs very deep, saying that it is afraid that people will steal fish, dig deeper, and the net cannot be cast. I was also afraid that the children would be naughty and fall in, so I built it in the woods two or three kilometers behind the village, but I ran for more than ten minutes before I saw the fish pond full of people, and I saw Uncle Qian standing on the fishing boat from afar, casting nets.
And Gangzi also saw me running over, greeted me, and laughed, "What's the hurry, what's the hurry, I'm also running over, don't worry, Uncle Qian's first net is down."
I smiled at Gangzi, and looked at Uncle Qian who cast the net, my mind was full of the conversation between my grandfather and that person.
"Could it be that he has something to do with my parents?"
Gangzi pushed me: "What are you muttering, look, Uncle Qian has pulled up the net."
I came back to my senses and looked at the past. I just saw Uncle Qian, who was ten meters away from the shore, pulling the net up, and I saw that the green tendons on his arms were bursting up, there may be a lot of fish.
As soon as I thought about this, the people around me seemed to see something terrible, "What is that, what did the old money fish."
I also saw a red thing, and I watched through the water as a red thing slowly emerged. I was curious, and my mind was confused, and I slowly walked towards the lake.
Then I don't know who shouted, "That seems to be a coffin, run."
Then the crowd seemed to explode, they all hurriedly retreated, I seemed to be confused, looking at the coffin with straight eyes, but I don't know who fled in a hurry, one hand pressed on my shoulder, pulled back, I was stunned, and slid into the water.
