Chapter 1 The robbery of every nine days

Next Chapter

I'm a hapless man, really!

It all started when my mom gave birth to me.

When my mother gave birth to me, there was a thunderstorm on the ground, and the whole village exploded.

And this thunder slashed at my house and on my bed impartially! A hole was split by lightning on the roof, and my mother's whole body was instantly scorched and killed on the spot. After that, my father went crazy and went missing.

And I grew up with my grandfather, who was a fortune teller.

Whether you believe it or not, as long as you sit here and chatter, he can find a way to get your money out of his pocket. I can't envy this ability, but I can't learn it, I'm thin-skinned. The old man pulled me up since I was a child, and I quarreled with him a lot, although I remembered what he said about Qimen Dunjia or something, but I didn't pay much attention to it. After all, what kind of society is it now?

During the sophomore year, I wanted to take advantage of my birthday to play in the city for a few days, but I was hurriedly recalled by the old man.

This made me feel very unhappy, but I couldn't resist him. I had to take a taxi back to the village.

"Hey, Rongrong, I am willing to come back!"

When the old man saw me, he took a deep sip of two yuan a box of plum blossoms, and spit out a smoke ring in a chic manner: "Go, cook in the house, don't hang your children all day long!" ”

I glared at him angrily: "My name is Chen Rong, Chen Rong!" Don't call me Rongrong anymore! ”

Speaking of which, I was even more wronged, after my father was lost, when my grandfather gave me a household registration, he said that my life was intolerable to heaven and earth, so I reported a name of Chen Rongrong. When I was a child, I was not sensible, because of this, I was not less laughed at, I went to junior high school, and I cried and asked my grandfather to remove one of the characters in my name! That's why it's the name it is today.

After eating and drinking, the old man and I sat opposite each other at the table of the Eight Immortals.

The old man gently took out a cigarette, and was about to light it, when I snatched it away: "Smoke less, your health has not been as good as a year in the past few years, and if you want to die, you have to provide for me to finish college!" ”

"Stinky boy!"

The old man scolded, but sighed.

This makes me a little strange, I didn't expect this old man to usually look heartless and depressed.

"The widow of the king next door, there is no ......"

The next sentence almost made me squirt out of my meal.

"How old are you, and you're still thinking about this?" I looked at the old man in front of me and said speechlessly.

The old man glared at me fiercely: "I'm telling you about business, the king's widow died strangely!" ”

"Cut, don't be alarmist here, I don't believe it, when Lao Song Tou died a few years ago, you said the same, and said that I would have some bloody disaster next, I am not still a?" I stood up and patted the old man on the shoulder gently: "Your set, it's okay to go out and fool others, I've heard a lot of this gossip numerology, and I don't like to believe it!" ”

"You know!"

The old man kicked me in the ass and scolded: "If it weren't for Lao Tzu to cover you from disasters and prevent difficulties, you would still be able to stand here safely?" ”

"I believe you're a ghost, you bad old man is very bad!" I pouted.

"If you don't believe it, look at it, strange things will come." The old man stopped arguing with me, sighed and continued.

I didn't pay attention to it, I drove for a day, and after eating, I got a little tired, so I lay down and went to sleep.

I slept until midnight.

It was about twelve o'clock.

"Boom ......"

There was a loud noise, and the sound made me sit up from the bed and hurriedly put on my clothes and walked out.

It was found that the house where my grandfather lived had collapsed, and bursts of electricity continued to spread between the reinforced concrete of the entire house.

A burning smell came out, and the scene looked dilapidated.

"That was, thunder?" I had goosebumps on my body, and I broke out in a cold sweat, and I didn't dare to hesitate at all, and hurriedly rushed into my grandfather's room.

The whole house was in dilapidation.

I vaguely saw that on the bed, my grandfather was sitting there cross-legged, extremely black.

Although the house was a mess, I could vaguely see that there were a lot of grandfather's things in the house, candles, ink fountains, silver threads, and gold wires, which seemed to form a magic circle.

"Grandpa!"

At that moment, I burst into tears.

The whole person stayed there completely, tears came out of his eyes, and he hurriedly pounced, looked at her and asked, "You, are you okay, I'll go and call you a doctor......

Hearing my words, Grandpa's charred body slowly opened his eyes.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he looked extremely terrifying, and he could even see the blood vessels and muscle tissue shaking a little under the charred body. The whole person seemed to be completely condensed.

"Don't be busy! I don't have any days left. ”

Grandpa said: "Being old and not dying is a thief, and at my age, it's worth it." But, Rong Rong, ......"

I couldn't care so much at the moment, and hurriedly said, "I'm here." ”

"There's one thing I haven't told you......" The old man said weakly, but his voice was unmistakable.

I heard the old man's words seem to have some meaning to explain the future, and hurriedly looked at the old man: "Don't talk, you've talked enough nonsense in this life......"

"Stinky boy!"

The old man scolded: "Your life is intolerable to heaven and earth." I knew it before you were born......"

"Yes, yes, yes, your old genius ......"

I didn't take it to heart, and kept calming the old man's emotions.

"It stands to reason that when you were born, you should have died...... old man sighed, and then continued: "However, I had selfish intentions and used the method of concealment to fall on your mother's head. ”

Hearing this, I was shocked, and my whole body was cold from top to bottom.

"Your father also knows about this, otherwise, he wouldn't have complained about me, let alone hated you......"

The old man's voice became lower and lower, and it seemed that he might die at any time: "Don't blame your father, blame me." Every nine times you are robbed, there will be a sign of calamity...... When you were nine years old, I was going to die, but I didn't fall for some reason. I've been able to survive for so many years! ”

"I helped you stop your robbery this time, and ...... in the future But I can't control you stinky boy! ”

The old man's face was relieved, and then he laughed: "My grandson of Old Man Chen, this world must be tolerated, and it will not be tolerated, Lao Tzu has forcibly allowed you in this world for eighteen years...... If you go over there, you can blow it well! ”

My heart hurts a little, I want to hug the old man, but I'm afraid of hurting him.

Now the flesh on his body is very tender, and it will fall off at the slightest touch.

"Take advantage of the next nine years, take a daughter-in-law, and renew the ...... for the old Chen family" The old man said with a dying breath: "Remember one sentence, every nine robberies, there will be a sign of calamity!" ”

As he spoke, the old man suddenly became excited, and his whole person suddenly straightened, his eyes widened, and he could jump out at any time.

And then he completely lost his breath.

I froze at first. Immediately after crying, although the old man and I disliked each other, we both knew in each other's hearts that this was just a tacit joke between the two of us.

The real person is gone, and my heart seems to be empty all of a sudden.

As for the sin of which he speaks......

At this time, I can't care about it, who can tell the difference between right and wrong so clearly in the past?

The thunder didn't wake the rest of the village, but I didn't feel sleepy at all, and the room was no longer sheltered from the wind, so I carried it to my room and gathered my grandfather's body.

At that moment, I suddenly felt like crying.

A thought crept through my mind: I don't have a home anymore......

Holding back tears, I tied two funeral lanterns in the dark, that is, white lanterns.

After tying up, one left and one right hung outside the gate.

At about seven o'clock in the morning of the next day, I tidied up myself, put on filial piety clothes, held the mourning gong in my hand, and then walked outside the door and shouted: "Chen Changyou of the Chen family passed away, hang the funeral lamp, and sound the funeral gong!" ”

As he spoke, the mourning gong sounded in his hand.

Knock, knock, knock......

Three times in a row! The sound of hollow gongs calms the ears.

Every household pushed open the door at this time, some sad, some stunned......
