Chapter 42: The Ancestor Manifests
The villagers of Zhangjia Village all looked at Shen Jiangtao in surprise.
"Hehe, classmate Shen, you said such a rebellious thing...... village chief Zhang Erfu looked around: "Although you really caught a few bad people in our village, we really thank you." But if you rely on this and want to insult the ancestors of our Zhang family, I won't agree to it first! ”
The crowd was excited.
The people surnamed Zhang were all angry at Shen Jiangtao by Zhang Erfu, and several other families surnamed Zhang in the village surrounded Shen Jiangtao and kept saying good things.
Shen Jiangtao waved his hand: "I didn't go against the grain, and I didn't want to insult anyone." ”
"Then what you just said was human?" Zhang Erfu squinted at Shen Jiangtao: "You...... You say that let our ancestors tell us that this is not an insult to the deceased ancestors? ”
Shen Jiangtao shook his head: "I have no such intention, what I said is: Let the ancestor of the Zhang family tell you that the evil ghost no longer exists." ”
"Good!" Zhang Erfu smiled and slammed the wine bowl in his hand in front of Shen Jiangtao: "If you can't say this clearly today, I will definitely not let you go." ”
didn't expect it to become such a situation, Yu Xu's family of three, Miao Li, and Zhang Min, were all scared.
Shen Jiangtao had no fear at all, he stood up and said: "Heaven and earth have spirits, the ancestors of the Zhang family are blessed, and the location of Zhangjia Village is a four-elephant auspicious land, which should be shared by all families." ”
"Today, I will let the ancestor of the Zhang family tell you that there are no evil ghosts at all." Shen Jiangtao paused for a moment and added: "But from now on, people with the surname Zhang should not despise and bully other people with the surname Zhang, and the money donated this year should not be used by others, and it will be returned to everyone who donated, how about it?" ”
Zhang Erfu nodded: "Okay, let's not say that the people surnamed Zhang in Zhangjia Village have never despised and bullied other people with the surname Zhang, but since you said so, I will promise you on behalf of the people surnamed Zhang." The money donated will also be returned to each family. ”
"Yes." Shen Jiangtao immediately stepped forward respectfully, put a stick of incense on the tablet of the ancestor surnamed Zhang, and then set up an egg on the ground, and said: "The deceased ancestor can't speak, if the evil ghost has been removed, this egg will be broken." ”
Looking at the eggs on the ground, the people of the Zhang family all thought, how could a good egg be broken?
"Hmph." Zhang Erfu looked at Shen Jiangtao with a sneering expression: "Okay, this egg, as long as people don't touch it, it can really be broken for no reason, then it must be the manifestation of our ancestor." ”
"Good!" Shen Jiangtao picked up a bowl of wine and poured it in front of the ancestral tablet: "A bowl of wine to the ancestors of the Zhang family There are spirits underground, please tell the people of Zhangjia Village that the evil ghosts have been eliminated!" ”
After speaking, Shen Jiangtao slammed the wine bowl towards the west.
Then they heard a rumbling sound, as if a heavy wheel was rolling over, and the villagers quickly retreated in horror, and saw a stone mill quickly rolling over, and it was running over the egg, and the egg suddenly became shattered.
"Ahh
The villagers looked at each other, and Zhang Erfu was also stunned, but he immediately quibbled: "It's just an accident!" It must be that the stone grinding disc is not stable, so it can't be counted. ”
"Okay, then it's an accident." Shen Jiangtao put another egg on the ground, picked up another bowl of wine, and poured it up: "A bowl of wine to the ancestors of the Zhang family is virtuous, please tell the people of Zhangjia Village that the evil ghosts have been eliminated!" ”
Shen Jiangtao threw the bowl to the east again.
There was a rumbling sound again, and a stone grinding disc rumbled over and crushed the second egg that had been placed there.
The villagers were completely stunned, and several elderly people even knelt down to the tablet and bowed: "The ancestor of the family has appeared, the ancestor has appeared!" ”
"This, this ......" Zhang Erfu stammered, lowered his voice unwillingly and said, "It must be a coincidence!" The stone grinding disc was also not stable. ”
"Okay, that's a coincidence." Shen Jiangtao immediately put down the third egg on the ground, picked up a bowl of wine again, and splashed it on the face of the village chief Zhang Erfu: "A bowl of wine teaches the ancestors of the Zhang family to teach their descendants to do evil, please tell the people of Zhangjia Village that the evil ghost has been eliminated!" ”
Zhang Erfu was suddenly furious, and several villagers surnamed Zhang, who usually worked for the village chief, also pounced viciously and wanted to beat Shen Jiangtao.
At this time, there was a rumbling sound, and another stone grinding disc rolled over, about to crush the third egg, but Zhang Erfu turned around and pounced on it, wanting to hug the stone grinding disc.
I didn't want this stone grinding disc to stop there, and the village chief didn't apply any force to the front, and he fell to the ground in one fell swoop, and his face just smashed on the egg on the ground.
The eggs were crushed, and Zhang Erfu's face was full of egg juice and eggshells.
"What a thick skin." Shen Jiangtao looked at the embarrassed village chief and said disdainfully.
Looking at the other villagers of Zhangjia Village, they all knelt on the ground and shouted in their mouths: "The ancestor of the family manifests, the ancestor of the family manifests!" ”
Zhang Erfu still wanted to say something, a person lifted a cane and hit him hard, that person was Zhang Erfu's father, Zhang Lao's father.
Daddy Zhang was beating and crying in his mouth: "No descendants! Shameless descendants! You're blinded by lard! The ancestor of the family has appeared three times, and you still have an accident on the left and a coincidence on the right! For the sake of those corrupt money, your ancestors don't want it! ”
The villagers surnamed Zhang, who usually work for the village chief, were also taught a lesson by their respective families.
Yu Xu, who had followed Shen Jiangtao to move the grinding disc before, looked at Shen Jiangtao with a look of admiration in his eyes, but he didn't expect Shen Jiangtao to put down the grinding disc before, just for this.
After that, Shen Jiangtao, Miao Li, and Zhang Min were invited to their homes by people from Zhangjia Village one after another, and they did not return to Qing'an City with a large bag of local products until May 5.
As soon as Shen Jiangtao and his party got out of the car, they smelled the smoke coming from their noses.
"How can there be such a strong smell of smoke? Ahem, ahem! Miao Li asked with her hand in front of her nose.
At this time, I listened to a few pedestrians who were hurrying next to me talking: "Why do you say that this Great Wall Hotel is on fire?" The fire is still so big......"
"Who says it's not, the coastal community collapsed for no reason before, and now the Great Wall Hotel is inexplicably on fire, and it has been burning for so many days, the big boss in both places is Zhang Tianyu, it seems that Boss Zhang is going to be unlucky......"
"Zhang Tianyu? Isn't this the person who has a good relationship with Mo Tian? Is this his restaurant? Restless, Shen Jiangtao asked Miao Li and Zhang Min to go back first, and then ran towards the place where the smoke was thick.
By the time we arrived at the Great Wall Hotel, the fire had been brought under control, and only some smoke remained.
Originally, a restaurant with more than 20 floors was burned to the ground, and the Great Wall Hotel, which was originally a landmark, was burned to the point that only the words "long", "big" and "hotel" remained.
Shen Jiangtao still remembers the last time he came here, the business of the hotel was very hot, and Zhang Zhiguo briefly taught Shen Jiangtao at that time: the entrance of the hotel is to the south, and the door is open in the gossip, and there is no pointed building in front of it, which will not cause any trouble.
But now that it has suffered such a serious fire, Shen Jiangtao couldn't help but squint, carefully looked at the restaurant and the feng shui around the restaurant, and wondered in his heart: What is going on?
