Chapter 144: The Old Guy Asks for Food
Xiao Laodao glanced at my grandfather, and asked instead of answering: "Brother, do you know what he told me?" โ
The master shook his head, and Xiao Laodao said: "He asked me to find a person who has an official position over there, use well water to study ink, and ask that person to write four words on the peach wood plaque 'ๅ ไปค้'ๅ ไปค้', and then hang the peach wood plaque at the gate of the courtyard, and those who come to hook the soul will not arrest the people in the courtyard anymore after seeing it." โ
The master said: "This method sounds simple, but where can we find someone with an official position?" โ
Xiao Laodao suddenly smiled, "Do we still need to look for it, far away in the sky, close in front of us!" โ
When the master heard this, he was confused, and Xiao Laodao continued: "Brother, you are the person with an official position, this is the number of days in the dark!" โ
The grandfather was stunned, "How can I have an official position?" โ
Xiao Laodao said eloquently: "If you don't have an official position, can those people call you 'adult'?" If you don't have an official position, can people carry you back? โ
The master pondered and didn't say a word, Xiao Laodao then said: "When we get home, I'll go find a peach wood card, you write the words, this method is not effective, whether you have an official position or not, you will know if you try it tonight!" โ
The master nodded reluctantly, "It's okay to try, but the old man of the temple only told you this, didn't he say anything else?" โ
Xiao Laodao showed a helpless face, "I didn't say anything else, I can't ask, this old man is very stubborn, if he asks him in a hurry, he can not recognize his relatives, and if he can't do it, I have to be kicked out, but he told me what King Han looks like." โ
When the master heard this, he hurriedly asked, "What does it look like?" โ
Xiao Laodao smiled, "What else can you look like, wearing armor and hanging a sword from your waist, exactly like the god statue in the temple, but you can't see your face, and there is a black gas covering your face." โ
"Black gas?" Hearing this, the master frowned slightly, and said: "I heard my father say that the righteous gods are gold, the earth immortals are white, and the demons and ghosts are the black gas, is it not the immortal family in the Hanwang Temple at all, but an evil thing?" โ
"I don't know." Xiao Laodao said: "We don't care what it is, more is better than less, it's best not to provoke it." โ
Back at home, Xiao Laodao told the lame Taoist about the Hanwang Temple, and then the lame Taoist found a peach wood plaque. However, because they live near the river, drinking water comes from the river, so there are no wells in the vicinity. Xiao Laodao took a water bag and braved the snow to a village seven or eight miles to the west to fetch a bag of well water.
At the same time, Xiao Laodao also inquired in the village, but no one in their village had strange dreams. As soon as Xiao Laodao came back and said, several people agreed that the location of the city wall in the dream should be in the east, and if it was in the west, the people in that village would not be spared.
When the master wrote the peach wood card, the time came to night, Xiao Laodao personally hung the peach wood card at the gate of the courtyard, and after dinner, everyone fell asleep one after another.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, before the master got up, he heard someone "pop" on his door, followed by Xiao Laodao's laughter: "Brother, this peach wood brand is really useful, I slept soundly last night!" โ
After the master got up, Xiao Chujiu and the girl also got up, and they all seemed very happy, and they didn't have any more strange dreams.
At this time, the snow had stopped, and the ground in the yard was covered with a thick layer of snow, which creaked when stepped on.
After breakfast, when he had nothing to do, the master left the yard and found a clean place by the river, facing the river, and practiced kung fu.
In recent days, things have been one after another, resulting in the grandfather having no time to practice, and while there is nothing to do now, the grandfather wants to pick up the habit of practicing every day again.
After practicing boxing a few times, the girl actually came to me, and I had to ask my grandfather to go home with her, but the grandfather didn't want to go, so the girl said that there was something good to show my grandfather, and forcibly pulled the grandfather, and the two of them returned home.
As soon as he entered the house, the grandfather looked into the yard, and was stunned, and saw two snowmen piled up in the open space in front of the stables in the yard.
"Come with me and take a closer look." The girl excitedly pulled my grandfather and came to the snowman, and the grandfather looked at the two snowmen again, and saw that the names of the two snowmen were still written on them, the larger snowman with "Liu Niandao" written on it, and the smaller snowman next to it said "Zhao Lan'er", and the two snowmen were holding hands......
The master suddenly widened his eyes, didn't say a word, strode over, kicked the two snowmen to pieces, and shouted: "Who let you pile it!" โ
"Huh?" The sudden scene made the girl panic and stunned.
"Don't build a snowman in front of me in the future!"
"Y-What are you doing?" The girl suddenly choked up, her eyes were full of tears of grievance, and the excitement just now was wiped out by the two kicks of the master.
The master glanced at the girl coldly, "I don't like snowmen, don't build them again in the future!" โ
The girl's tears rolled down from her eyes, trembling all over, the master turned his head and glanced at Xiao Shiyi, these two snowmen are probably also Xiao Shiyi's share, he and the girl piled it together!
Xiao Shiyi looked at the master timidly, like facing a tiger that went crazy for no reason, and he didn't dare to move, but it could be seen from Xiao Shiyi's eyes that he was also aggrieved.
The girl turned abruptly, ran to her room crying, and when she ran back to her room, she slammed the door shut.
At this time, Xiao Laodao came out of his own room, looked at the stable, and shouted, "Brother, what are you arguing about?" โ
The master turned his head and glanced at Xiao Laodao, but without saying a word, Xiao Shiyi gestured to Xiao Laodao aggrievedly: Liu Daxia kicked the snowman that Sister Lan'er and I had built.
Xiao Laodao suddenly showed a helpless face, and shouted to the master: "Brother, what are you nervous about, the two of you are building snowmen, what's wrong with you." โ
The master still didn't say anything, he didn't do it right, he still cared about where he was holding his breath, Xiao Laodao immediately greeted Xiao Shiyi, "Eleven, go and see your Sister Lan'er, don't pay attention to this snowman kicker!" โ
Xiao Shiyi ran to the room of the entertainer, Xiao Laodao returned to the house, closed the door again, and in the whole courtyard, my grandfather was left alone, at this time, the cold wind blew, whining, and half of the snowman's head on the ground shook with the wind......
At noon, the master and the girl ignored anyone, the girl was red-eyed, and the master had a gloomy face, in Xiao Laodao's words, my master, who recruited you to provoke you, lost his temper inexplicably!
In the afternoon, the lame Taoist quietly came to my grandfather, my grandfather thought he was here to ask about the snowman, and didn't want to pay attention to him, and then I learned that it turned out that the lame Taoist wanted the master to write some peach wood signs to the people in the village, but he couldn't let his senior brother know about this, because Xiao Laodao didn't want to care about the affairs of those people in the village, Xiao Laodao meant, if he did, it would cause fire. However, a lame Taoist is not good, he is a serious cultivator, he is compassionate, and he can't see others suffering, so he came to my grandfather to discuss it without Xiao Laodao.
When the master heard it, it was okay to write a sign, but where to get so many mahogany cards? The lame Taoist said, don't worry about the Taomu brand, just let the people in the village prepare it themselves, but the well water used for grinding ink, my grandfather must personally go to the West Village and play some over. At this time, the master felt embarrassed to stay here, so he agreed, and then quietly took two water bags, and did not ride a horse, hiding from Xiao Laodao and a few of them, according to the address said by the lame Taoist, and rushed to the West Village seven or eight miles away.
When my grandfather found the well in the West Village, filled the two water bags, and was about to leave, an old man came over, looking seventy or eighty years old, wearing a tattered cotton jacket, black cotton was exposed at the hole, a stick in his hand, a broken porcelain bowl, the old man walked up to my grandfather, and stretched out his old black hand to the grandfather.
The master was stunned for a moment and said, "Uncle, I don't have anything to eat, you can go elsewhere." โ
The old man stood still and didn't take his hand back, the master couldn't help it, so he took out a few copper plates from his arms and put them in the hand of the man who asked for food, "Take it and buy some food." โ
Who knows, the old man shook his hand, and actually threw a few copper plates to the ground, the grandfather frowned, and asked, "Uncle, what do you want from me?" โ
Lao Yaofan pointed to the water bag in the master's waist, and the master was stunned, "Do you want to drink water?" โ
The old man nodded, the old man turned around and fetched a bucket of water from the well, the old man looked at the master, looked at the bucket, walked over and picked up the bucket, "bang", poured the water back into the well, and then stretched out his hand to the master.
The grandfather frowned even tighter, "What the hell do you want to do, I don't have time to mess around with you!" As he spoke, the master was about to leave, and the old man quickly blocked his body in front of the master, and spread out his two arms to block the way.
This is also an old man, if he is a young man, the grandfather will kick him over, and the grandfather said patiently: "I still have something, you don't have to make trouble, it's better to get out of the way for me!" โ
The old man didn't pay attention to it, raised his hand and pointed to the water bag in the waist of the grandfather, and the master asked, "Do you want to drink the water in the water bag?" โ
The old man nodded vigorously, and the master gritted his teeth, "Okay!" He untied a water bag from his waist and handed it to the old man who opened the water bag, raised his neck, put his mouth to the mouth of the bag, gurgled, and drank the water in one go.
The empty bag was handed to my grandfather, and he pointed to another bag in the grandfather's waist, and the grandfather was puzzled, why did he have to drink the water in his water bag when he always asked for food? Then he untied another bag and handed it to him.
The old man took it, and drank it in one go, and the master was suddenly stunned, on such a cold day, he poured two bags of cold well water, and he couldn't freeze through the inside and out, Rao is such a good body, he didn't dare to do this.
After drinking the old food, he wiped his mouth, smirked at the master, returned the bag to the master, and walked away.
