Chapter 13: The Omen
After dealing with the two ghosts who hooked himself by hanging, Chen Xiaobraid returned home with a backpack, because he had just been despised by Lu Dagang after finding out that he had overcharged money, and his pigtail heart was a little depressed at this time.
After a night of tossing and turning, I was a little tired, and the pigtails finally walked home, and I just wanted to get a good night's sleep.
As soon as he entered the door, he coldly stretched out a pair of big hands from the door, which frightened Chen Xiaobraid and stepped back again and again...... "Hey, who?" Eat my tofu early in the morning. But the big hands came up as soon as they met it, and it was a fumbling when they caught Chen Xiaobraid's face.
"Haha, I found out! It's pigtailed cubs. "Liu... Uncle Liu? It wasn't until the big hand withdrew the pigtail that he saw that it was Liu Blind, who had a deep friendship with his father, who came out of his door.
"Why are you free?" "Haha, I had a fight with your father just now, and now I'm drinking again!" The blind man Liu found out that it was Chen Xiaobraid and immediately grinned, claiming that he had just made a deal with Chen Laogou, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Dad, your handsome and talented son is back!" Chen Xiaobraid pushed the door and entered the house, and saw Chen Laogou sitting on the grass hall smoking a dry cigarette.
"Are things going well?" "That is, your son is out of the horse, and there is nothing bad to do." But when he entered the room, as soon as he said a few words to Chen Laogou, the pigtail's eyes were attracted by a stall on the table......
Seeing that Chen Xiaobraid was stunned and speechless, his eyes widened and widened, and he didn't dare to blink.
"Dad, how can you have so much money? Flash... Flashed my eyes! "It turned out that there were more than a dozen stacks of red tickets on the table in this hall room, which shocked Chen Xiaobraid, he was a poor and scared person, and he had never seen so much money.
"Look at you like that, it's useless." "Dad, for as long as I can remember, our family has always been on the verge of hunger!" This money is simply astronomical to Chen Xiaobraid, Chen Xiaobraid looked at the money, stammered and couldn't even speak! He didn't understand, why was his father, who was also living a hard life, so calm?
"Sit down, Daddy has something to tell you." "Dad, your serious appearance gives me a sense of foreboding." Chen Laogou didn't pay attention to Chen Xiaobraid, who was looking for money, and knocked on the cigarette pouch in his hand, letting Chen Xiaobraid sit in front of him, with a very serious expression.
"Listen to me, stinky boy, you weren't at home yesterday, and something happened in the village." Chen Laogou took two puffs of dry tobacco before telling the pigtail what happened in the village where he was not at home yesterday.
It turned out that early yesterday morning, a flock of crows flew out of the sky above the village out of nowhere, circling densely around the sky above the village.
The people of the countryside did not have a good impression of this crow, and legend has it that the flight of this big black bird into someone's house was a bad omen. Because this thing smells dead and eats carrion, every time it appears, it means that someone is going to die......
But the group of crows that flew in yesterday did not stay in anyone's house in the village, but all of them landed around the village primary school, and the houses and telephone poles were full of black presses, which was really scary to look at.
"Nothing will happen, will it?" "You're quite superstitious!" "Fourth, you go find a stick to get them away." The primary school in this village is not big, and there are not many students, but all the students below the third grade in the village go to school here, and the parents who sent their children to school in the morning saw that the situation was really a little strange, so they began to talk about it.
"Second brother, there are too many crows! Why is it all here? "What nonsense, this shows that the ecology is better now!" Although I thought it was strange, no one believed in these things over the years, and everyone discussed for a while, but let the children go to school and not delay the class.
At that time, Chen Laogou was walking in the village, and he also saw this strange scene, but he never said a word in the crowd.
Originally, Chen Laogou didn't feel anything, just thinking that he was afraid that some wild cats and wild dogs had died in the school and caused these things, but then he saw another scene.
Chen Laogou found that from under the row of classrooms in the school, many big rats kept coming out, and they kept running in line to the place outside the wall.
Chen Laogou took a closer look, these rats looked very flustered at this time, as if they would be in danger if they ran a little late, as if they had sensed some kind of omen.
Now Chen Laogou was a little worried, he took advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention, and got into a small alley alone that people don't walk. At a hidden corner at the end of the alley, Mr. Chen found a place to sit down, took out a handful of glutinous rice from his pocket, and scattered it in a circle on the ground.
Then he filled a bag of dry tobacco and lit it and smoked two puffs, which was a set of signature actions of Chen Laogou.
The smoke was together, and after a while, the wild fairy "Hu Family Fairy" on the north mountain was summoned.
"The house in this place is going to collapse, there are more than a dozen children going to die, this is a sign of heaven, there is no way. Don't worry about the old dog, if you go against the will of heaven, you will have to lose your life, and I am also a cultivator, so I can't disobey it. ”
As soon as he heard that Chen Laogou asked about the school, this Hu Jiaxian immediately advised, this is going to be a disaster, but it is a heavenly omen, people can't disobey the heavenly omen, otherwise it will not be good for themselves.
"But there's a Tujiao behind here, that thing is about to survive the 500-year catastrophe, and I'm a little anxious, and I want to take this opportunity to take in a few children's creatures to help him avoid the catastrophe."
The fox fairy finished talking about Tianzhao, and then said that there seemed to be an evil demon "Tujiao" behind this Tianzhao, who wanted to take advantage of Tianzhao to do evil. But this Hu family immortal cultivates the immortal way, and he can't go against the will of heaven, and some don't dare to help.
"But old dog! If you want to take care of this matter, I will help you even if I take this life, who makes me owe you a life! It's a big deal not to cultivate immortals, go back and cultivate demons again. ”
But he also knew that he couldn't persuade Chen Laogou, so the fox fairy lowered his head and thought for a while, and said these words before leaving......
After listening to the fox's words before leaving, Chen Laogou thought about it again, this fox's cultivation path is not high, but he dares to offend Tujiao and go against the mandate of heaven for his own sake. What is there to be afraid of this old bone of his own? He knocked off the ashes of his cigarette and walked to the elementary school with his back hand......
"What? Just a few words from you are going to delay your child's lesson? I tell you, it can't be. But what he didn't expect was that sometimes animals could understand the truth, but people didn't understand it.
"Mr. Chen, I know that many people in the village are very convinced of you, but they are ignorant and uneducated. I don't want to eat your set, you don't want to get any benefit from me. "The principal of this primary school was the only college student in the village that year, and he had been a teacher outside for several years, but his performance was not good, and he was transferred back to the village to replace Lao Luo to re-manage the primary school. As soon as he heard Chen Laogou say that he was in danger in school today, he immediately sneered.
"I still have something to do, so I won't send it to you!" Before Chen Laogou could say anything, the principal actually got up and issued an eviction order, making Chen Laogou not say a word for a long time.
However, this time, Chen Laogou made up his mind to take care of this matter, so he would not be sent away by his words.
Then, the parents who came to pick up and drop off their children saw the next scene, the old dog of the former barefoot Daxian Chen in the village actually found a chair out of nowhere, and sat at the school gate with a golden knife, blocking the way of all the children and parents.
"What is Old Dog Chen doing?" "Who knows which one he sings again." The villagers who were about to send their children were stopped outside by Chen Laogou, and they were all talking, and it also attracted more people to watch.
There were also a few parents who wanted to force their way over, but at this time, there was a burst of momentum on Old Dog Chen's body that made people dare not approach, just like the arrival of the gods, where is this still the usual approachable Master Chen.
"Old man Chen, we still have to send the children to class."
"That's right! Why don't you let us in? ”
"This dog is not usually so arrogant......"
But although everyone was not allowed to get close, everyone's mouths were not idle, and they were complaining that Old Dog Chen was delaying everyone's time here.
"You... You are delaying our normal class time, disturbing social order, and breaking the law! Soon the principal was alarmed, he pointed at Chen Laogou and barked and scolded for a long time, but Chen Laogou just didn't move, ignoring him.
At this moment, the headmaster and the villagers suddenly heard a series of crazy dog barking from the village road behind them. The villagers quickly looked back and saw a large group of wild dogs running down the village road like a whirlwind.
It is Chen Laogou's right-hand man who takes the lead, "Corpse Gouging Dog", and the other immortals are cultivating the Immortal Dao, which violates the Heavenly Dao and will destroy the cultivation, but this corpse gouging dog is very different, it is not afraid of anything, and it does not cultivate, but it has walked out of a road that is not afraid of heaven and earth.
Seeing that the corpse gouge dog was coming, Chen Lao Dog didn't speak, but just snapped his fingers at it, and the corpse gouging dog seemed to have received an order, and as soon as he raised his head, he barked loudly twice at the sky.
Then he led the pack of wild dogs into the school. The large pack of wild dogs dispersed, surrounding the elementary school inside and out, and several large dogs burrowed into the classroom.
After a dog barking, a group of early arrivals were so frightened that they all ran out of the classroom......
These wild dogs barked and drove all the children out, although there was a panic, but did not hurt a child, the parents hurriedly protected the children behind them, and wanted to drink the wild dogs, but when they saw the appearance of the wild dogs, they all flinched back......
The principal was mad, he saw that this group of wild dogs knew that Chen Laogou was making trouble, and the villagers saw that the child was frightened, and they all felt that Chen Laogou was too much this time, and they began to accuse Chen Laogou.
But at this moment, everyone heard a loud rumbling sound from the direction of the school...... After everyone saw the situation in the school clearly, their jaws almost didn't fall out in shock.
I saw that the ground shook for a while, and the school's Pai Row classroom shook and collapsed in the middle. In an instant, the classrooms of the entire school collapsed into ruins, and the school was filled with dust and smoke, and there were broken bricks and tiles everywhere.
At this time, the villagers who were stunned for a long time reacted that Chen Laogou, who had behaved abnormally early in the morning, was actually saving the lives of the children, and they all turned their heads to look at Chen Laogou.
"Where did Old Man Chen go?" Who knew that after this period of panic, Chen Laogou had already left the crowd, and he didn't forget to snap his fingers before leaving......
Chen Laogou had already left the school at this time, in fact, he himself had the same temper as the corpse gouging dog, no matter what kind of omen he was, anyway, he didn't want to beg for a hundred years of immortality, so it was better to do it if he wanted.
And the villagers gathered here were afraid for a while, if it wasn't for Chen Laogou today, the consequences would be really unimaginable, and they couldn't help but respect him even more!
"I didn't expect this to happen on the day I wasn't there," Chen Xiaobraid never expected that such a big thing would happen on the day he left the village.
"Master Dog, I'm here, I'll go see the project you said, there's no problem." At this time, a person's voice came from inside the house, and a man in a camouflage uniform walked in, looking about forty years old, carrying a backpack, and looking very capable.
"Is that all? OK, you can rest assured. "I don't know if that's enough, so you can do your best." As soon as he entered the door, he glanced at the hundreds of thousands of yuan on the table, said yes to Chen Laogou, and put all the money into his bag.
"I understand, I don't want the salary, I use the best materials, and I can make up for the difference. If you don't agree, I will take someone to renovate your dilapidated house together, which can be regarded as repaying your favor. ”
The man seemed to have some friendship with Chen Laogou, so he didn't sit down, lit a cigarette and told Chen Laogou that he would do his best to do it. The man exchanged a few words with Chen Laogou and didn't stay long, turned around and left in a hurry.
"You can see it, I've sold it all! I want to build a new primary school in the village. At this time, Chen Xiaobraid didn't need his father to say much, and he also understood what his father was going to do, so he lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time......
"So we are poor again, what's wrong? You're in a huff. Chen Laogou saw that he kept his head down and didn't speak for a long time, thinking that his son's attention to money on weekdays must be distressed again.
"Dad, am I so useless in your eyes? Money is gone, and it's earning, and who said our family has no money! But who knows, Chen Xiaobraid stood up suddenly, took out a stack of 100 yuan bills in his jacket pocket and threw it on the table, without saying a word about the hundreds of thousands.
"This is what I earned from Qin's big trouble, and there is 1600 left, which is enough for the two of us to eat! You're getting older, so leave it to me to make money in the future! Okay, I haven't slept all night, I'm sleepy, I'm going back to the house to catch up on sleep. Chen Xiaobraid said what was in his heart, and as soon as he stretched his waist, he destroyed the house.
Chen Xiaobraid's words made Chen Laogou's heart warm, this son seems to be careful about money, but he can also distinguish right from wrong.
The hard-earned money of the Chen family father and son was gone in a blink of an eye, and they returned to a state of poverty, but Chen Xiaobraid had grown up, but he was on his own, and suddenly Chen Laogou was full of hope for his future life!
