The rudiments of power

Time flies like a white horse, there is only one day left before the day when the ancestors said that the big changes, Huang Ping's plan is almost completed, and finally the problem of manpower shortage can be solved today.

The Huang family compound is experiencing the most lively gathering ever, two 30-seat buses parked outside the courtyard, a full 20 banquets are set up in the large courtyard, there are ten improvised stoves cooking in the area divided into kitchens, the smoke of the fire smokes a nearby wall as black as the bottom of a pot, here the Huang family accounts for half of the people, and half of the family is close relatives and friends who feel trustworthy, for example, Huang Ping invited high school classmates and friends to occupy a table.

Because Huang Ping is relatively low in seniority and likes to drink with his elders, he chose to sit with his friends instead of sitting with the group of people who went to the main table and were still drinking with those in their sixties and seventies.

Today's meal, the Huang family also made a lot of money, basically the best that can be bought in the county is available here. Also, if there is really a big change tomorrow, who knows if they can survive, there is wine today and drunk today, and if there is an accident tomorrow, today can be regarded as eating and drinking.

The meal lasted from one o'clock to four o'clock, and after he was full, Huang Ping stood up and walked to a piece of red cloth, at this time a courtyard was full of people, and those who were arguing about national affairs after being drunk were all out by roaring, and the volume was both the output of combat power, and only the people who ate with Huang Ping noticed that Huang Ping had some strange behavior.

"Bang Bang"

"Everyone, be quiet, I have something to say."

Everyone suddenly turned their eyes to Huang Ping, who was talking, at this moment the whole courtyard seemed to be the player was pressed the pause button and suddenly quieted, Huang Ping didn't say anything, but lifted the red cloth, so that everyone could see that the red cloth covered the shelf with a hundred cold steel forged knives neatly placed, the smooth knife surface reflected the sun, but everyone here did not feel a trace of warmth, but felt a cold air rushing towards them, there was a feeling of not wearing enough clothes to open the door in winter, Some people subconsciously pulled their sleeves, while others clasped their hands in front of them, as if this would bring them a touch of warmth.

"You have been asking our family why we invited you to dinner today, but I have not answered positively, and now I will tell you the answer."

"A month ago, my ancestor told me that the world would change greatly tomorrow, so I was prepared."

"You will surely ask me why I believe in a dream, because he has told me other news, and this news has been confirmed."

"So we started preparing a month before our family went bankrupt, the village wall, the five cylindrical warehouses next to my house are granaries full of grain, and these 100 custom-made knives"

"So now I want to ask, what is your choice, the man who is willing to believe in me and follow me in his twenties and forties to get a knife, if you don't want to, please come back, but if you encounter difficulties tomorrow, we will still open the door for you to take refuge, but the treatment is not so good."

"That's all I have to say, let's start your choice."

After speaking, Huang Ping stood quietly on the side, waiting for everyone to make a choice.

Almost as soon as Huang Ping's words fell, more than 20 young adults in the family fought, everyone glanced at each other, walked to the weapon rack, took a knife, and silently walked to the side and stood aside, no one asked questions, they just looked at the knife in their hands with some curiosity.

There were three women and nine men at the table where Huang Ping was sitting, and the nine men also stood up at about the same time, three of them walked towards the door without looking back, got on the car and left, and six took a knife and glanced at Huang Ping and stood with more than 20 people before.

After nearly half an hour, no one in the entire courtyard said a word, and everyone completed the choice, more than 200 people chose to stay only more than 100 people, of which more than 80 people from Huang Ping's family all stayed, and only 50 people who belonged to young adults and took knives, most of them knew Huang Ping or were directly Huang Ping's cousins, and Huang Ping's expected 80 people were 30 people behind.

"The people who can stay are the people who believe in and support me, as long as I can pass the hurdle tomorrow, I Huang Ping will definitely not treat everyone badly, now there are two buses parked outside, you go to pick up your family members and gather here."

"By the way, it's a little faster, I don't know the exact time, it's best to come back before twelve o'clock, after twelve o'clock the workers outside will fill all the gaps and close the village."

"If you have any questions, come back and ask again, now it's just to pick up people"

Hearing Huang Ping's words, everyone didn't say anything, and invariably took out their mobile phones to contact their families to pack their things, and they would go back to pick them up later.

After the bus that picked up the people left, Huang Ping also took out a knife and watched it in his hand, he looked at the face of the knife that corresponded to his face, and he didn't know whether to ask the rest of the people or say to himself:

"Am I right to do this, let them make decisions in advance, if my dream is just an accident, they will not end well."

Huang Ping's uncle Huang Yong walked over and patted Huang Ping on the shoulder,

"It's a gamble, and if you win, you might save your life. If they lose, our family will resist everything, and the punishment they will receive will not be much. ”

"It's also ........"

As soon as Huang Ping wanted to express that he had figured it out, his mobile phone rang, Huang Ping glanced at a strange phone belonging to the provincial capital, he thought about it and connected it

"Huang Ping, I'm at the station in your county, come and pick me up."

"Small.... Xiaoyu, why are you here? ”

"I'll take care of my affairs, I'll find it immediately according to the note you left, I think you're my way back."

"Are you at the new station or the old station, I'll pick you up right away."

"I'm going to ask about this, 'Hello Auntie, I want to ask if this is a new station or an old station', new station, okay, thank you, Auntie"

"Wait for me, five minutes, I'll be there in three minutes."

Huang Ping quickly ran into the house, took the car keys, and drove to Xiaoyu to the parking place.

In less than three minutes, Huang Ping arrived across the road from the new station in the county seat, and at a glance, he saw Xiao Yu, who was wearing a red dress and was tall and holding luggage, waiting for him next to a group of people waiting for the train.

There is only one big G left in the house rented by the provincial capital, Huang Ping drove it, turned a corner with one foot on the accelerator, and the big G stopped next to Xiaoyu,

Huang Ping lowered the passenger window,

"Where are you going, do you want me to give you a ride?"

"Okay, can you help me carry my luggage?"

Huang Ping immediately got out of the car and opened the passenger door for Xiaoyu, and after helping Xiaoyu into the car like a gentleman, he threw his luggage in the trunk and ran back to the driver's seat.

The pair of drama spirits pretended to be in front of a group of people and ran away, leaving a group of people who sighed and envied the unknown situation of the melon-eating masses.

"How did you come at such a coincidence?"

"Coincidentally, I came here after I took care of my affairs, is there anything special about today?"

"There is nothing special, tomorrow's day is more special, which shows that we are very fateful."

"I'm so hungry, I ate a little biscuit after a day of driving, why is your house so remote."

"So it's a coincidence that you're here, my family has a lot of food today, well, it's here, just turn in front."

Huang Ping parked the car and pulled Xiaoyu to go home, and as soon as he entered the door, the seven aunts and eight aunts who were cleaning up the mess of the banquet put their eyes on Xiaoyu, and the expressions on their faces were suddenly enriched. And Huang Yong, who was drinking tea on the side, the faces of the two brothers Huang Hai were gloomy.

Huang Ping couldn't care so much, so he could only drag Xiaoyu into the house under the discussion of the seven aunts and eight mothers-in-law who were reincarnated by the matchmaker, leave Xiaoyu in the living room, and then heat some meals for Xiaoyu to eat in the kitchen alone.

"Why do you follow my nephew so much, is it not enough money, open a number, and transfer it to you immediately"

"What is my ghost, it was your nephew who asked me to come, otherwise who would come to this place of Shankara."

Huang Ping heard Xiao Yu and his uncle arguing in the living room in the kitchen, and immediately ran to Xiao Yu's side to explain to his uncle and father.

After some explanation, I don't know if my uncle believed it or not, anyway, he didn't pay attention to Xiaoyu anymore, but drank tea by himself.

Huang Ping had no choice but to take Xiaoyu to the kitchen to comfort Xiaoyu while seeing how the food was hot

"You don't have to pay attention to them, I'll solve it then, the meal is ready, let's eat first"

"I believe in you, and I don't know anyone here, so I can only rely on you."

Huang Ping sat quietly opposite Xiao Yu and watched Xiao Yu eat quickly and gracefully.

The time was getting closer and closer to twelve o'clock, and the two buses to pick up people came back one after another, and the construction team on the periphery of the village began to fill the gaps left before according to Huang Ping's instructions, and the wall around the village gradually began to become free of holes.

Knock knock knock........ The old-fashioned wall clock in Huang Ping's house rang twelve times, and the time had reached twelve o'clock, and everyone could find that it was as if nothing had happened, everyone looked at Huang Ping, who was standing in the middle of everyone with Xiaoyu, and felt everyone's suspicious gaze, Huang Ping's forehead was sweating, and he was panicked, but he knew that he couldn't show it,

"The ancestor told me about today, but I don't know the specific time, tonight we will choose six people to take turns to keep vigil, voluntary as the principle, I will keep the first hour first."

The first five people to sign up for the vigil were all friends of Huang Ping, and Huang Ping also felt their support for him, and after arranging the shift, everyone returned to their assigned positions and began to rest.

Huang Ping looked at the sky in the east and began to wonder if he was too crazy to devote all his family's money to a dream. Yes, Huang Ping didn't have anyone all night, he waited for the big change to come, and as time went by, Huang Ping began to doubt himself. Everyone got up and saw Huang Ping's haggard face, and they all told him to go and rest first, they would wait until twelve o'clock tonight, they believed Huang Ping.

After just sleeping for two or three hours, Huang Ping, who was sleeping comfortably, was woken up by everyone, and Huang Ping subconsciously took the knife placed at the head of the bed in his hand.

"Is there a big change?"

"No, you closed the village, and the villagers called the police when they couldn't get out, and the police came"

"Ah, then take me to the police, I'll take care of everything"

A group of people took Huang Ping to the wall where the police were, because of the existence of the city wall, the police had no way to enter the village for a while, so they had to stand aside and wait for the fire ladder to arrive.

As soon as he climbed the wall, Huang Ping and the others, who were about to communicate with the police, found that the sun seemed to be brightening, and the temperature of the air was also rising rapidly, Huang Ping knew that he had made the right bet, and then a pillar of light rose in the ancestral hall, and at the same time, a transparent light shroud covered the village, and the place shrouded by the light shrouded began to change back to normal.

Huang Ping, who watched all this happen, knew that a new era had begun to come.
