Chapter 3: The Old Beggar

Zhang Xian's jumping off the building alarmed the entire school, and for a while, the students of the entire school were in a uproar and discussed in private. Some say that Zhang Xian is not evil, some say that he is mentally abnormal, and some say that he jumped off the building because he was out of love and couldn't think about it......

Zhang Xian, like me, is a rural child, and his parents rushed to our school overnight when they heard the news, and brought seven aunts and eight aunts to the school to make trouble, saying that there was a baby in the village who was born in their family, and they insisted that it was the responsibility of the school.

Recently, it has been getting colder, and my mother, knowing that she didn't have many thicker clothes, called me 500 yuan and told me to go to the city to buy some clothes.

Our school is in a second-tier city, and the price is not cheaper than in my hometown, and a piece of clothing costs more than 800 yuan. Taking advantage of the lack of classes in the morning, I went to the downtown pedestrian street for a walk, and the style of clothes was fine, but the price was dumbfounded, it was too expensive!

I heard Chen Yuchao say that there is also a clothing city near here, where the clothes are affordable and good-looking, so I went to take a look.

When I came to the garment city, I thought it would be a weekday and there would be fewer people, but judging from the crowd in front of me, it is estimated that people from other cities also knew that the clothes here were cheap and rushed over.

I picked out two sweatshirts and a denim jacket and returned with bags in both hands.

I noticed an old beggar lying on the ground on the side of the road, with a dirty beard, and happened to have ten dollars in his pocket, so I put down my bag and put ten dollars in front of him.

Just as he wanted to leave, the old beggar opened his mouth and said:

"I'm here for a morning today, and I don't have more than these ten yuan, little doll, I think your little doll is good, but it's a pity that Yintang is black, and there will be a catastrophe on the fifteenth of this month."

I lost my temper at that time, and the old beggar cursed me instead of thanking me, and said in a stupid manner:

"Old man, you can't talk nonsense."

The old beggar shook his head, laughed, and said:

"Little doll, you are nineteen years old this year, there is a butterfly birthmark on the knee of your right leg, when you were ten years old, you took the sacrifice of someone's grave because of greed, rushed to the ancestors, and had a disease, am I right?"

The old man said it word for word, but how did he know, he really had some gods, anyway, he would not lose a piece of meat after listening to it, and squatted down and said to the old beggar:

"You're right, but what do you think I'm going to encounter?"

The old beggar said two words casually, and said two words without hurrying or slowing, big murderer!

"You have something in school, and there is more than one, don't go anywhere on the fifteenth day of this month, stick this talisman at the door of the dormitory, keep you safe."

After the old beggar finished speaking, he took out a yellow talisman from his pocket, and I took it, and I couldn't read the red words on it, in fact, I didn't want to believe in this kind of metaphysical thing. But more is better than less, I put the talisman in my pocket, thanked the old beggar, and when I left, I gave the old beggar a piece of ten yuan, and then took the bus back to school.

When I got off the platform, a yellow thing floated on me, and I grabbed it, and it turned out to be a piece of paper money!

The closer you get to the school, the more money you have.

When I got to school, I finally understood what was going on.

Zhang Xian's relatives made trouble at the gate of the school, saying that they would not give up until the school gave a reasonable explanation. A coffin was placed directly at the entrance of the school, with a wreath and black-and-white photos on it. Relatives dressed in white clothes, weeping and scattering paper money.

Seeing the school gate like this, I went around and entered the school through the dormitory gate.

When I walked to the door of the dormitory, a notice was posted stating that because of special circumstances, students should not go through the school gate and enter and exit through the side door.

When I entered the dormitory, a strange and familiar figure appeared in our dormitory, Xu Yizhe!

Xu Yizhe and Chen Yuchao chatted and laughed, but they didn't see his tuberculosis in the past, and their complexion was much better, like a nobody.

When they saw me coming back and said hello to me, I asked Xu Yizhe directly and said:

"You're recovering well, but I remember you're suffering from a serious lung disease."

Xu Yizhe was stunned for a moment, and then said:

"This time I went back to my mother and invited a gentleman for me, and he said that I was suffering from an evil disease, and that the bed position in the dormitory where I lived happened to be blocked by a locust tree, and the feng shui was not good."

I thought about it, and there is indeed an old locust tree under the 410 dormitory, this old locust tree seems to have become a fine and grows very tall, Xu Yizhe's bed is blocked by the branches and leaves of this old locust tree, and it can't shine even during the day. Is it really a problem with the tree, I continued:

"What is the origin of that gentleman, that he can actually cure diseases?"

Xu Yizhe shook his head and said that he didn't know, and said that it would be really good to do a Fa thing. He said that he regretted Zhang Xian in the same dormitory, and the good time of the four years of college was gone.

After a few polite words, he went back, because the gentleman told Xu Yizhe that the bed could no longer be lived, so he went to apply for a dormitory transfer. Because of the jumping incident, the school made people panic, so they didn't say anything to agree.

I was lying in bed, and so many things had happened not long after I entered college, and I sorted out the events of the past few days. First the fat man mentioned the 402 dormitory, and then our group went on an adventure, the thin monkey sleepwalked to the 402 dormitory, and Zhang Xian had an accident. It seems that all this is inseparable from the 402 dormitory.

After the incident in dormitory 402, I asked other students, but strangely enough, no one knew what happened in dormitory 402, but asked me curiously about what happened in dormitory 402 or something like that.

It stands to reason that the school has the most rumors among the students, but no one knows who you ask, and even I wonder if anything happened to the boys' dormitory 402.

It seems that all this still has to be figured out before 402. You have to ask the fat man first.

I picked up my phone and opened WeChat, but found that there was no contact information of the fat man, I turned my head and asked Chen Yuchao if he had it, he said that this kid was chattering, and he was too lazy to ask for his contact information.

There are only two classes in the foreign language department, and the fat man is in the other. A few days ago, during military training, a girl asked me about my WeChat ID, and I could ask her.

I opened the list, and there weren't many people on the list except for my family's teacher's former classmates, and I immediately found the girl from the other day.

This girl's name is Li Sihan, and during military training, I saw her comb a ponytail, delicate facial features, and a pair of big eyes vividly.

I exchanged a few pleasantries with her, and she asked me if I was free tomorrow and wanted to go out with me.

I immediately agreed, and of course it was incumbent on beautiful women to ask me for a date.

I mentioned if there was a chubby boy in their class, and Li Sihan sent me a question mark emoji, indicating that there was no such person as I said, and I sent a sentence that I might have made a mistake.

She made two smiles with her mouth covered, saying that it was not too early, I would go to bed first.

I said yes and sent two goodnight emojis.

Didn't this fat man say that he was in a class in the foreign language department, and the co-author turned out to be lying to me. Now I want to find someone else but it's gone, forget it, I'll inquire when I have time.

Thinking that I was going on a date tomorrow, I was still happy, and I originally wanted to inquire about the fat man, but I unexpectedly gained a date, and I left the 402 dormitory behind me for a while.

Chen Yuchao and Skinny Monkey sent me an invitation to team up in the game, we created a team, usually the three of us play in a team, seeing that I was chatting hotly, saying that we can't do without you as a shooter, and in the end I still refused, for tomorrow's date tonight early rest.

I was going to take toiletries to wash, Chen Yuchao saw that I was abnormal today, and went to wash up early, and couldn't help but ridicule for a while, the thin monkey should also be with him, saying that I will go on a date tomorrow and recharge my energy today.

I ignored them, opened the cupboard, and took out my toiletries.

Just as I was about to pick up the toiletries, I noticed a piece of paper at the bottom of the cabinet, which is the case with many cabinets in the school dormitory.

I remember that this piece of paper was originally there when I came to the dormitory to put my things, and it should have been left by the previous students, and I didn't pay attention to it at the time.

Curious, I pulled the paper out of it.

It turned out to be an old newspaper.

Just as I was about to crumple it up and throw it away, I saw a piece of news in my spare eye.

It reads that a student mysteriously disappeared and later found his body in the school pond.

The photo on the news turned out to be a fat man who was still talking to me a few days ago!
