Chapter 2 The Power of Money
Because of the head injury, Bei Mingyu directly got a day off, and after breakfast, Bei Mingyu carried all his belongings in his pocket, 2 yuan, 1 cent and 8 cents, and walked around the county.
Not to mention, the scenery of the county town during the Republic of China period still has a unique taste, especially the stalls on both sides of the road, chickens, ducks and fish, pots and pans, and living utensils can almost be found, among which there are also toys that amuse children, rattles, sugar people, rabbits and dragonflies made of straw, etc., which have opened a lot of eyes to Beimingyu.
After wandering around all morning, Bei Mingyu spent two cents at noon to eat two bowls of oil-splashed noodles at the noodle stall, and then asked the boss for a bowl of noodle soup, and read it with his newly bought newspaper.
April 23, 1938!
"On the 7th of this month, the Battle of Taierzhuang under the command of General Li Zongren and Li won a complete victory with the strong support of the people of the whole country, killing more than 20,000 Japanese soldiers.........
On the 13th of this month, the "New York Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese National Salvation Association" established by Situ Meitang donated 200,000 oceanic ......... to the Kuomintang government
…………
Looking at the newspaper printed in traditional characters, Bei Mingyu took a long breath, fortunately, the difference between the use of traditional Chinese characters and modern simplified characters in this era is not too big, and he can barely read, if he is put in ancient times, he can really only be illiterate.
After drinking the noodle soup directly and figuring out the time, Bei Mingyu walked outside the city with a newspaper in his hand, he was specifically going to see Uncle Jiu's Yizhuang.
After some inquiry, Bei Mingyu walked directly to the end of the village, and Uncle Jiu's Yizhuang was built at the end of the village.
Looking at the plaque with the word Yizhuang written on the door, Bei Mingyu always felt that it was deep inside.
Swallowing his saliva, as soon as Bei Mingyu wanted to go in, he saw a young man in a horse coat pushing a bicycle and walking out, and with him was a young man with braids, who looked slightly older.
"I'll leave first, Wencai, and I'll leave the matter of informing the villagers to you."
"Qiusheng, the master said that the two of us should inform together, and you have to sneak away again." Wen Cai said aggrievedly, "If you do this again, I will complain to the master." ”
"Oh, don't I still have to show my aunt the store, okay, let's go first!"
patted Wencai on the shoulder, Qiusheng just wanted to step on the bicycle and leave, when he found Bei Mingyu standing at the door and asked, "Hey, what are you doing!" ”
"I'm from the security team in the city, my name is Bei Mingyu, I don't know if I've hit an evil spirit recently, I always have nightmares, and I want to ask Uncle Nine for Zhang Ping'an Fu to keep me safe!"
On the way to come, Bei Mingyu thought of an excuse, and when he heard Qiusheng's inquiry, he said it directly.
"Too many bad things!"
Qiu Sheng joked with a smile, turned his head to look at Wen Cai behind him, and said, "This matter is also handed over to you." ”
With that, he stepped on his bicycle and walked straight away.
"Bullying me again." Wen Cai muttered.
Shaking his head, Wen Cai said to Bei Mingyu: "You wait at the door for a while, I'll go to the house and get you a talisman!" ”
Handing Qiusheng a bag of pastries he bought when he went out of the city, Bei Mingyu smiled and said, "Then I'm bothering you!" ”
happily took the pastry, and Wen Cai's attitude towards Bei Mingyu was much better, "Wait!" ”
Looking at Wencai who turned around and went in, Bei Mingyu didn't plan to go in, after his inquiry this day, he found that Master Ren was still alive, and the biggest thing was that his daughter Ren Tingting came back from the provincial capital, and he had never heard that he was going to move the grave, in other words, there was still a period of time before the plot began!
While Bei Mingyu was thinking, Wen Cai walked out with a yellow talisman and handed it to Bei Mingyu, "Remember to bring it with you, so that it can be useful." ”
"Got it, thank you!"
"It's okay, it's okay."
Wen Cai scratched his head and reflexively closed the door of Yizhuang.
"Are you going out?"
Bei Mingyu asked, and he also had plans to set up a set of words.
"It's not." Wen Cai waved his hand, "My uncle is coming in a few days, and I want to talk to the villagers to keep them out at night these days, and to tie their dogs tightly to save accidents." ”
"What does your uncle do? It's so mysterious. ”
Hearing Wen Cai's words, Bei Mingyu felt as if he had forgotten something, and couldn't help frowning.
Hearing Bei Mingyu's inquiry, Wen Cai turned his head to look around, and only after finding that there was no one else did he cautiously say to Bei Mingyu: "My uncle is driving corpses!" ”
Chase out the corpses! Four-eyed Taoist!
After listening to Wen Cai's words, Bei Mingyu's mind lit up, and he suddenly remembered that the first scene in the movie was that Qiusheng pretended to be a zombie to scare Wen Cai and accidentally removed the talisman on the zombie's forehead, and that row of zombies were all brought by Uncle Jiu's junior brother by driving corpses, and at the end of the movie, the four-eyed Taoist priest also came to help with zombies, otherwise the old lady Ren who became a zombie would not be so easy to solve.
The plan was gradually generated in Bei Mingyu's heart, and after looking at Wen Cai, Bei Mingyu pretended to be curious, "Your uncle really drove out the corpse?" ”
"Of course, my uncle is the same as my master, but they are both Maoshan Taoist priests, and this is what drives out corpses and ghosts!"
Thumbs up, Wen Cai said proudly.
"I haven't seen others drive corpses yet, can you let me see when your uncle comes?" Bei Mingyu asked.
"No, no!" Hearing Bei Mingyu's words, Wen Cai hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't let others see it when driving out the corpse, it's easy to run into evil, and my master wants to know, it's time to scold me again!" ”
"Then I'll go and see it during the day, okay?" Bei Mingyu then asked.
"The corpses are all day and night, what do you see during the day?"
Wen Cai looked at Bei Mingyu with suspicion on his face.
"I look at zombies!" Bei Mingyu said and stuffed a piece of Yuan Datou into Wen Cai's hand, "I'm just curious to take a look, and I can brag to others in the future, how about it?" It won't work! ”
Looking down at the silver dollar in his hand, Wen Cai couldn't help but rub it, revealing a look of interest, after struggling for a while, Wen Cai put the silver dollar into his personal pocket, and said to Beiming: "Let's say it first, I must be present when you want to see zombies, and I don't know when my uncle will come, so let's do it, if you really want to see it, then come to Yizhuang at noon, my master has the habit of taking a nap!" ”
"Okay, then I'll go back first."
Nodding, Bei Mingyu walked towards the outside of the village, preparing to return to the security team's dormitory to rest.
Looking at the back of Bei Mingyu, Wen Cai touched the silver dollar in his pocket and muttered: "The people in the city are rich, and a security team is a silver dollar, tsk!" ”
"Oh, by the way, I haven't reminded the villagers of my uncle's coming!" Patting his head suddenly, Wen Cai hurriedly walked towards the house of the villagers who had dogs at home, reminding them to tie the dog firmly so as not to collide with the undead.
