Chapter 73: The Old Fish

Zhuzi said that when he was a small carp, he lived alone in a well.

The well was in that vast rice field, and the well was big and deep, and the water was clear and cool. In the summer, the villagers who harvest millet in the vicinity like to go up to the well and drink cold water.

The little carp cultivated in the well for a while and had an epiphany of the way of heaven, and felt that he should set up his heart for heaven and earth, establish his life for the people, and open peace for the future...

made a long list of grand wishes.

But I'm just a little carp, and I can't do those things yet, so I'll just guard this well where everyone drinks water.

Keeping the well water clean is also a contribution to the people.

Since then, the little carp has been conscientiously working as a well fish for the villagers, and has devoted himself to helping the well remove impurities and harmful substances. Many years have passed.

Perhaps because of the merit of cleaning the well, it also progressed very quickly.

I used to have blue scales, only the belly was red, but now I am covered in red scales. The red and fiery dazzling eyes, shining by the sun in the water, are even more golden and beautiful.

It is precisely because of the red scales that flash the eyes of a blind titanium alloy dog that a series of things have happened.

What's the matter?

It's the height of summer again, and the sun is in the sky.

The people who harvested the grain in the rice fields could no longer withstand the scorching sun and went back to rest, and only a second-rate son who usually hangs his children was still hanging outside.

This second-rate man is an imbecile, with a somewhat low intelligence but a bit of a peak.

He was still walking in the fields when the sun was poisoning, and he didn't know what he wanted to do. After a while, on a whim, he walked to the well, looked at the shiny water, and took a sip.

After drinking, he didn't stand up and left, and unbuttoned his belt and poured urine into the well.

The little carp was angry, thinking that you were a lack of virtue and crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and drank water to pee in the well. The people in the village often fetch water from this well, what the hell do you do to make others drink it?

At that time, his soul was detained, and the two goods fainted by the well, and they were found after dark.

I couldn't wake up when I carried it back, and the doctor couldn't find anything but narcolepsy. Later, a goddess saw that he had lost his soul and helped him summon his soul, but he couldn't get it back.

After several twists and turns, it was found that there was an accident in the well, and the goddess came up with an idea to ask the second cargo to take the second cargo to cry hard by the well, so that the little carp's heart was softened, and the little carp put the soul of the second cargo back. He complained to the goddess about the lack of virtue that the second cargo did to the well, and after the goddess relayed it, the second cargo repeatedly promised to clean the well.

After that, no one in the village dared to pee in the well or throw anything unclean.

After a few more decades, the children in the village became old men, and those who knew about it were buried and dead.

Among them was an old man, the owner of the rice field next to the well.

He not only farms but also raises geese, in early summer, when the rice is lush and green, he puts the geese down in the rice field to eat loaches and snails, and raises the geese white and fat at the same time, he can also give the rice field pine pine.

One day he got a little hot after chasing the geese, so he went to the well to drink.

Who knew that this product was the same as the second goods who peed into the well dozens of years ago, and they actually wanted to wash their feet in the water.

As soon as he put his foot down, he saw a fiery red thing burst out of the water, floating on the surface of the water and staring at him. It seemed like he could bite him at any moment.

He remembered that when he was a child a few decades ago, he had heard a legend in the village that this well had a spirit and was specially designed to protect the cleanliness of the well. Whoever dares to wash something unclean or immoral in the well will be taken away by that thing.

He hurriedly retracted his foot.

When I looked into the water again, it seemed to be a golden carp. A red scale armor looks particularly good in the shiny water.

He remembered that the old man had said that the carp with spirit in the well would turn into a dragon after a long time.

Their potential in the water is nothing more than cultivation, preparing for the transformation of dragons.

From then on, the old man stayed by the well every day, and whenever he had time, he went to the well to see, and he wanted to see this little carp turning into a dragon with his own eyes, which must be very spectacular.

Who knew that he didn't wait for the day when he died.

The little carp is too slow to cultivate, how can it be possible to turn into a dragon in more than 20 years?

Later, I heard from the people in the village who came to fetch water that the old man who was herding the geese was still chanting for the time being: "Dragon, golden dragon." The golden dragon ascends to heaven. ”

His family thought that his father had an extraordinary background, and they all saw the golden dragon when he was dying.

Hearing this, I understood, and asked the beads in my body: "Are you saying that the old man who herds geese is likely to be obsessed with seeing your dragon flying to the sky, so he fell into the bardo realm, and has been guarding the rice field in the bardo realm?" ”

The unlucky dragon said "um": "If the old man becomes obsessed, then there must be a well in his rice field in the bardo realm, and there must be a golden carp in the well?" ”

"That's right."

Zhuzi continued: "As long as you take me to that place, I will be able to use the body from the well, plus the dragon treasure and the soul to be reborn, and soon I will be able to fly to the sky!" ”

Sounds good: "But, where can I find that old man's obsession?" ”

"You don't have to worry about that."

The unlucky dragon was confident: "I have been with the old man for decades, and I know him very well." I have sensed that he is in the bardo realm, as long as you follow what I say, you will be able to find that place in no time. ”

I followed his instructions, and in a short time I was in a place.

Fruiting into a vast expanse of rice fields, it seems that there are seventy or eighty hectares, and all of them are paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River. The tender green of the seedlings stretches in the spring breeze, covering the sky and the water and green as far as the eye can see, which is very comfortable.

On the rice field, there is a scarecrow like a rain doll stuck in every other piece.

The doll has red hair and ghost makeup painted in ink.

Originally, I wanted to scare away small birds or herons and cranes parked in the paddy fields, but as soon as the wind blew, the hems of hundreds of dolls' clothes swayed, startling the pedestrians on the road by the paddy fields.

An old man was holding a spotted bamboo pole nesting under the hemp willow tree on the edge of the paddy field, and when he saw the pedestrians frightened, he smiled, and seemed to enjoy the pranks of others.

He was still holding a long and thin bamboo pole in his hand, and a strip of cloth was hung on the head of the bamboo pole like a fishing line.

After a while, a few white-haired ducks got up from the paddy field at the other end of the road, and went up to the old man's paddy field with a swagger, ignoring the old man under the willow tree, and pounced on the old man's paddy field one after another, and was about to swim happily.

When the old man saw it, he kept waving the bamboo pole in his hand.

The bamboo poles were very long and had strips of cloth, and the ducks that were chasing me, you chased me, I chased you, and went straight to other fields.

After this effort, the old man was already sweating profusely.

I don't know what's going on, this old man is not fat, strictly speaking, he has a yellow face and thin muscles, but he has a fat belly, which looks like a thin man is pregnant, which is very interesting.

It was precisely because of this big belly that the old man had a hard time catching up the ducks, and he was already sweating profusely after a few movements, leaning on the hemp willow tree and panting.

While panting, he reached out and touched his Baikan shoulder: "You little bastards, you want to destroy my feng shui treasure, but there is no door." ”

After speaking, he took a few breaths and said: "I, Wang Changfu, bought the right to use the six or seven fields in this river ditch, and I get up early every day and guard it in the dark, can I still let you, a few dead ducks, spoil it?" ”

Looking at the white buttocks of the ducks leaving, the old man's face was satisfied.

When Zhuzi saw the old man, the joy in his tone could not be hidden: "It is he who is him, our savior king old man!" Hurry up, let's get over there. ”

I hurried over.

The bead slipped into my hand at some point, and I threw him hard at the rice field where Wang Changfu was located, as he wanted: "Go, Pikachu!" ”

When it drew a beautiful arc in the air, it didn't forget to shout to me: "There will be a lot of movement when I turn into a dragon in a while, lightning and thunder, if you are afraid, you can go elsewhere." ”

I hurriedly nodded, begging for it.

After all, I don't have any obsession with watching the golden dragon ascend to heaven, I was almost struck by lightning in the human world before, but I don't want to try the feeling of being scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.

Hurriedly walked away: "Remember to come to me in a while." ”

Follow me out of the rice fields, and then to the small town when I first arrived, which is really antique, and it is like traveling to the ancient town.

Passing by an antique shop, I casually glanced inside.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you can see a familiar figure in the antique shop at a glance.

If you look closely, isn't this the person I knew when I was on earth? He is the owner of a large chain and owns one of the top few assets in Asia.

Not only do I know him, but almost all the people in the whole country know him.

How did he open an antique shop here?

He's dead too?

When?

I remember that not long before my dog was led, I saw him attend a press conference to promote his company, why did he die? Looking at his appearance, he is familiar with the road, and he is like a fish in water in the middle of the nether realm, so he is probably dead for a while, right?

He runs an antique business, but there are still rows of old-fashioned old turntable telephones in the store, similar to the kind used in Shanghai during the Republic of China.

Several people stood in front of different phones, some were dialing the dial, some were talking on the phone, crying with tears in their eyes, and one voice was hoarse: "You remember, the bank card password is xxxxxxx."

Can I still make a phone call?

My eyes lit up and I hurried in.

Although I have a dog now, the only thing I can remember is Master's number.

Hurriedly asked Boss Niu if I could borrow a phone.

When he was alive, the people of the whole country knew him and used their products, and it was estimated that he was not easy to refuse, so he hurriedly made a gesture to the phone booth when he heard us call him his nickname: "Please please inside." ”

Just as I was picking up the microphone to dial the dial, a hand reached out out of nowhere and grabbed my wrist, and the voice reprimanded: "Why are you running around when you tell you to wait for me?" ”
