Chapter 7: The Fat Man Arrives
My whole body was numb the moment I was asked, and she saw it that night!
But what does she mean by burying me again?
I faced my cousin with an embarrassed and polite smile on my lips, but my head was already spinning, and I was pretty sure that I had buried the bracelet that night, and there was no one around, how did she know?
Isn't she...
I was taken aback by my own thoughts, although there are a lot of rumors about my cousin in the village, some say that it is the goblin in the back mountain, some say that it is the yellow skin that has changed, in short, it is not a person, but I have never been to my heart, after all, I am also a person who has been mixed in the big city, and what ghosts and gods say is all nonsense in my opinion.
But the moment my cousin said this condition, I admit that for a few seconds, my heart was about to jump out, and I wanted to run, but both legs were weak, because that was the first time I doubted that my cousin was indeed not human!
I took a sip of water to hide my panic, tried to calm down and asked, "Cousin, then let's stop talking in secret, can you tell me why you took this bracelet out of the wild grave and let me bury it again?" ”
Actually, I want to know what she wants to do, after all, if she is really not human, then if I do exactly what she says, my fate is probably the next cousin.
My cousin looked at me with a smile and said, "When you're done with this, you'll understand." ”
After she finished speaking, she gently placed the bracelet on the table and walked back to the room with light steps.
I looked at the bracelet in a daze, this thing is not an antique in my eyes now, it is a million, or one of my legs, I swallow when I look at it.
For a moment, I even planned to just grab the bracelet and leave, go back to Beijing, or go further afield, and no one could find it.
But when I read that my cousin is my relative after all, and he gave me such a large sum of money, not to mention that he didn't do it when he promised him to help him renew the incense, and he didn't even care about it at all, I really didn't want to go, plus a cousin who looked like a human and a ghost, I was really afraid that if I took this bracelet, even if I ran to the ends of the earth, she could catch me back.
But let me go to the wild grave by myself again, and I won't dare to kill him, unless someone accompanies me, and it must be someone I trust.
So I immediately called the fat man and asked him to book the nearest flight and hurry over, and the person I can trust the most now is him.
The fat man was suffering from a headache from loan sharks in Beijing and had nowhere to go, so he answered my phone call and flew over immediately.
When he arrived in the town, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon, the car in the village stopped early, there was really no recruitment, I could only hire a donkey cart, and when I arrived in the town, the fat man was squatting at the door of the guest house to smoke, and when he saw me coming, he threw away the cigarette butt, touched the donkey's head and said: "Comrade Lao Chen, you are really a fucking talent, find a donkey cart to pick me up." ”
I told him not to talk nonsense and dragged him up, but this guy was too fat, and he sat on the car, and the car shook several times, and the donkey was crushed and screamed.
The fat man was still unhappy, patted the donkey's buttocks and said: "Comrade donkey, we can't be tired of doing revolution, pull well, sit comfortably, master, I will buy you a donkey meat to eat!" ”
He raised his head again and said to the fellow who pulled the donkey cart: "Fellow, your donkey's ideological consciousness is too low, and what I carry on my shoulders is the great banner of liberating all mankind. ”
The fellow looked at the fat man like a nervous disorder, and I was about to die of embarrassment, so I diverted the topic and asked the fat man how he was on the road.
He said a perfunctory sentence, and asked me with a thief's eyebrows: "Lao Chen, you urgently called me to come to this poor country, what's wrong, you dug up the treasure?" ”
I hurriedly asked him to lower his voice, and told him where he was, but now it's inconvenient.
In the past few years, tomb robbery was rampant, and we have not been let go of tomb thieves in this poor place, and even the wild graves have been dug up, so the village hates tomb robbery, and the identity of my cousin and aunt is really inconvenient to say in front of the name of the village.
The two of us giggled all the way back to the village, and I opened a room for the fat man at the guest house at the entrance of the village, and after sitting down, I told him all the things of the past few days.
This guy wasn't interested at all, but when he heard that I had a beautiful cousin who was widowed, his eyes glowed green, and he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Comrade Old Chen, although I am only a few years older than you, I don't mind being your uncle, they are all revolutionary comrades, you don't need to engage in so many generations, you just call me fat brother!" ”
I glared at him and said, "You fucking serious, I'll talk to you about business, you said that you buried the bracelet, do we do it or not?" ”
"Of course I did!" The fat man looked at me like a fool: "I said Lao Chen, your brain was kicked by the donkey just now?" We are all staunch materialists, and all cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods are paper tigers! What are you afraid of what he will do? ”
He lowered his voice again and said, "Besides, your cousin asked you to bury you, did you really bury it?" Why are you so sincere? When the time comes, let's go to the wild grave and tell her that if it's buried, she can still go to the soil by herself? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if we really bury it, we can dig it out before we turn around! ”
The fat man is like this, he speaks very convincingly, and I don't have any opinions, the more important things are, the more often I can't make up my mind, and I waver, and I agree with his method in a few words.
The fat man saw that I was shaken, lay down on the bed, lifted Erlang's legs and said: "Lao Chen, if you want me to say that you are too easy to think too much, this person, you have to look forward, you just think, we have this money, go back to Beijing to wipe our butts clean, and then spread the business bigger, don't you want to be chic and chic when you make a lot of money?" Don't you always think that the girl who sells pancakes and fruits at the gate of the glass factory is good? When we make a lot of money, you will go directly and open a dozen or twenty more pancake and fruit stalls for her, and see if she will follow you? Fit? ”
I took off my shoes and threw them in his face and said, "Where is all this nonsense! Hurry up and get some sleep and work at night! ”
At about twelve o'clock in the evening, the fat man and I went downstairs, and when the boss was about to close, he was startled when he saw that we were going out again, and asked me what I was going to do.
I stuffed him with two hundred dollars, asked him to leave a door for us, and went out with the fat man.
The countryside in the middle of the night is still quite cold, the fat man is afraid of the heat, so he wears a shorts vest and comes out, and the road is shivering: "I... I'm grass your grandmother's Chen Ming, don't you remind me to wear more on such a cold day? ”
I said, "Aren't you fucking afraid of the heat?" When I first went to bed, I said that it was hot in the file, which would just blow the dick. ”
The two of us quarreled all the way, and soon arrived at the wild cemetery in the west of the village, I came back once, and I was a little prepared, but the fat man had never seen this kind of place in his life, and he was obviously a little scared, and hid behind me, I laughed at him and said: "Who just said that the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods are all paper tigers?" Scared to pee right now? ”
The fat man said recklessly: "Lao Tzu is frozen, if there is a female ghost at this time, believe it or not, I will come to the spot with a shot, and the ghost will not be over." ”
He looked around cautiously, as if he was afraid that some female ghost would really come out, and asked me, "Hurry up and work, this person is frozen, and the eggs are frozen together." ”
I took him back to the place where I marked it, and when I got to the place to take a photo of my mobile phone, I was stunned, because the mark I made before was still there, and it hadn't been touched at all!
This is strange, if the cousin really dug up the bracelet from here, how could it be that the mark is still there?
The fat man saw that I didn't move, and he didn't wait, put on his gloves and began to dig, and after digging twice, he suddenly made a "huh" sound, and pulled something out of the soil at once!
When I looked closely, my mouth couldn't close, and it was actually a jade bracelet, exactly the same as the one my cousin was wearing!
The fat man laughed happily: "Lao Chen, God is really destined for us to get rich!" I think we'll bury your cousin's one, take this one, just right! ”
I always felt that something was wrong, how could there be a jade bracelet here? I've never heard of jade bracelets in pairs!
The fat man was so excited that he was still digging, and said while digging: "Lao Tzu digs again, but there is still a treasure under it!" ”
I suddenly panicked in my heart, the feeling that something was wrong was even stronger, just wanted to make the fat man stop, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then quickly pulled his hand out of the soil, and the whole person sat on the ground, his face was white!
