10 deposits

Liu Orion hurried back to Xiatou Village that day, faster than when he went to Shangtou Village. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info After all, it was late walking at night and was bumped into by the zombie, but it was a life-threatening matter, and it was no joke.

So when Liu Orion rushed back to the village and stepped into the courtyard gate of the village chief Zhao Daliang's house, he sat on a stone beam on the ground next to the courtyard gate, panting and unable to speak. I'm really tired.

Zhao Daliang in the meeting room of the village committee was in a hurry to wait for news, and when he saw Liu Orion coming, he hurriedly walked out of the door and asked, "What's wrong?" What's going on? Did the old Taoist priest promise to come? ”

"Water, give a bowl of water to drink." Liu Orion said while gasping.

On the side, Zhao Daliang's daughter-in-law had already poured a bowl of cold white and handed it to him. Liu Orion drank it dry in one gulp, "Sister-in-law, let's have another bowl." Zhao Daliang's wife hurriedly poured another bowl, and he was bored again.

Two bowls of underwater belly, Liu Orion wiped his mouth, "It's done, the old Taoist priest promised to come and see." ”

"If you can't come and see, you have to help us get rid of that scourge." Zhao Daliang's eyes widened, staring at Liu Orion.

Liu Orion hurriedly explained, "I know, I know, I told him, he said that he can get rid of zombies, but the price is a little more expensive." ”

"How much does he want?" Zhao Daliang asked him with his eyes propped up.

Liu Lihu learned to abide by the old Taoist, stretched out five fingers, shook them, and then put away the middle three fingers, "This number." ”

"How many are these five, five, six, or six?" Zhao Daliang was anxious.

"Five, six, six thousand." Liu Orion stumbled and said. He added another 1,000 yuan on top of the 5,000 yuan he promised to keep the old way, "And he said that he had to give him the money first, and then he would give us the zombie eradication." ”

"This price is a bit much, but if this old Taoist priest can really get zombies, it's worth it to get some blood. But if he didn't get this zombie, he wouldn't be able to just fool around with money. In this way, we will give him half of the deposit, three thousand. But I have to say it, he got the ritual, and in the next month, if we don't make trouble with this zombie, I'll give him the other half. If this is still making trouble, then we can only give him five hundred of hard-earned money, and the other two and a half, and we have to come back. If you go and say it, you will succeed, and you will not be pulled down. If you don't dare to say yes, then you definitely don't have any ability. ”

When Liu Orion heard this, he said in his heart, "This is not a fuel-efficient lamp. ”

"Is this done?" Liu Orion asked pretending to hesitate.

"What's wrong with that? That's it. It doesn't pull down. Anyway, I wrote a report to the government, and the government can't just leave us here. ”

Liu Orion saw that Zhao Daliang's tone was tough, and thought that it was better to follow him, otherwise his 1,000 yuan errand money would be gone. "Okay, let's take another adventure tonight and discuss with the old Taoist."

Although Liu Lie's account said so, he didn't plan to go to the old Taoist priest at night, he didn't have the guts. He planned that after dawn early tomorrow morning, he would wait for the old Taoist priest on the road to Shangtou Village outside the village.

"Hey, there's no need to be in such a hurry, it's dangerous to rush at night." Zhao Daliang was moved by this Liu Orion and became concerned.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm careful, but for the sake of sincerity, I can't go empty-handed. Village chief, you just give me the first payment, and I will send it to him directly, if he agrees, he can come with me early tomorrow morning. ”

Zhao Daliang heard that this was going to pay for it, and he felt that he had no score. But come to think of it, it's going to come out anyway. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he agreed, "But remember, you have to write a receipt, otherwise it will be difficult to sue in the future if there is no evidence." Also, this cost is not small, a few of us can do it if we know it, don't spread it around, in case they are not happy, I can't deal with it. When someone asks, they say that it took a lot, and you don't know how much. Zhao Daliang carefully told Liu Orion that these words were exactly what Liu Orion meant, so he nodded again and again, without saying anything.

Seeing that Liu Orion was very cooperative, Zhao Daliang was relieved, went back to his house and touched it for a long time, took out a pile of red old man's head, and handed it to Liu Orion, "Order, thirty, put it away, don't lose it." ”

Seeing the money, Liu Orion was overjoyed, took the ticket, counted it with saliva, counted it, and stuffed it into his pocket, "That's right, I'll leave." ”

Before he turned around, Zhao Daliang grabbed him, "What's the hurry, eat and leave, this dinner is ready, aren't you hungry?" ”

Liu Orion's stomach really growled, so he happily ate dinner at Zhao Daliang's house, then took a toothpick, picked his teeth, and went out of the hospital. When he was far away and turned a corner, Liu Orion happily took a shortcut and went home to sleep.

Here, Zhao Daliang saw that Liu Orion was gone, and hurriedly entered the office of the village committee with a smile, took out the account book, and carefully wrote a few words on the head, "Expenses: Shangtou Village, Shangtou Guanlaodao to catch zombies, incense money, down payment: 4,000 yuan." Note: The final payment of 4,000 yuan will be given after the zombies. ”

Looking at the numbers on the ledger, thinking that this would cost two thousand yuan, Zhao Daliang's eyes narrowed into a slit with joy.

Besides, I don't sleep at all, I was busy asking my disciples to prepare for the demon eradication in the first half of the night, checking the books for the demon elimination, and thinking about the five thousand yuan in the second half of the night, I couldn't sleep at all, and I had complete insomnia.

For a while, I was happy to think that there was such a large amount of money, and then I was worried that I didn't know what to do if I really ran into zombies. Just tossed around for the night.

That night, he carefully looked through the ordinary Taoist classics left by his grandfather, and he didn't see any of them that explained the method of getting rid of zombies. This method is passed down by word of mouth, and there is no conclusive record. Or even if there is such a record in the book, there is no such precious book in this view. So after watching it for a long time, I didn't see a reason for abiding by the old way.

In the end, in a miscellaneous book of Taoist chronicles that I don't know what year and month, there was a thing recorded that made the old Taoist priest interested.

It is said that during the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, there was a place where there was a mandrill, which was so powerful that it ate a lot of livestock and injured a lot of people. I also found a Taoist priest to deal with it. This mandrill is also a monkey and a demon, which is different from today's mandrills, to a bit similar to the meaning of Monkey King and six-eared macaque.

When the Taoist priest went there, he decided that this was not an ordinary mandrill, but a mountain god descending to earth, and it must be the local people who offended the mountain god, and the mountain god was angry and came to trouble them, so he had to get a living person to sacrifice the mandrill, and calmed the anger of the mountain god, so as to seek peace.

Later, a teenage child said that he was the reincarnation of a bodhisattva, and volunteered to make a sacrifice and give it to the mandrill. After that, there was no more mandrill in the local area, and even other demons and monsters did not have it, it was peaceful, and it was blessed. Later, the local people set up a temple for the child, in order to commemorate his sacrifice of life and righteousness, call him "Son Bodhisattva", according to records, the small temple incense is still quite prosperous, that "Son Bodhisattva" did good things during his lifetime, and did not forget to learn Lei Feng after death, he responded to requests, and was very effective.

After reading this story, he took a long breath while pointing at the miscellaneous book, "I said what to do, it turned out to be such a thing, and the Eight Achievements are it." When the time comes, they will tell those fools that they want a personal sacrifice, and if they don't dare to do it, they won't be able to complain about me. If you dare to do it, you will fool the past, and maybe you will get rid of the troublesome thing. Then the five thousand yuan is in hand, and you can enjoy yourself for a while. You can also go down the mountain to meet the hair salon girl in the town and discuss the matter of double cultivation with her. ”

Thinking of the banknotes and his sister-in-law, the old Taoist priest was overjoyed and couldn't close his eyes at all.

Early the next morning, the old Taoist priest fluttered up, originally planning to swallow the 5,000 yuan by himself, but those so-called rituals needed a lot of miscellaneous things, and he couldn't do it alone, so the old Taoist could only bring a stunned little Taoist priest to help him start, move things, and do hard work.

Two Taoist priests, one old and one young, took advantage of the morning light and rushed all the way to Xiatou Village. The one who adhered to the old way was happy at first and strutted with his head held high. But I can't stand it, firstly, I am older, and secondly, I was too excited the night before, I didn't sleep, and I lost some "spirit". I didn't go far out, I couldn't bear it, three steps and a rest, five steps and a stop, grinding and chirping for a long time.

But the stunned little Taoist priest was young and strong, and his spirit was not bad, carrying many things, and he walked faster than the old Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest was grinding and chirping, and the little Taoist priest was a little impatient. However, he was a master, so he didn't dare to complain, so he could only follow and rest.

Halfway through the journey, I saw a man in the woods approaching from afar.

The old Taoist priest is also too focused on zombies, and he didn't sleep and was dizzy. As soon as he saw a figure, he thought it was a zombie coming, and he was so frightened that he quickly hid behind the little Taoist. I didn't think about it in broad daylight, and zombies didn't dare to run around.

The little Taoist priest didn't know about the zombies, he only heard that he was going to do a ritual, so he was not afraid, and shouted to the person who came, "Liu Orion, why are you here again?" ”

As soon as he heard that it was Liu Orion, the old Taoist priest cowered and got out from behind the little Taoist, dusted off his body, puffed up his chest, choked his throat, as if he had been pinched by a ghost, and said to Liu Orion, "Xiao Liu, where are you going?" ”

As soon as Liu Orion saw the old Taoist, he quickly pulled him aside, avoided the little Taoist, and spoke in a low voice, "I said Old Daoist, why are you so late, the village chief is in a hurry." If you don't come again, he'll have to go somewhere else, and you'll be smarter. ”

When Lao Dao heard this, he was also anxious, "Then hurry up, let's go quickly." So saying, he hurried forward.

Liu Orion grabbed him, avoiding the little Taoist priest to give Lao Dao a roll of money, "The village chief said, the price you said is too high, but if you can really get rid of zombies, he is also willing to pay this money to the masters of the Taoist temple." It's just that I don't know if you have the ability to really get rid of that zombie, so I can't give you all 5,000 yuan. But in order to show his sincerity, he first took out two thousand yuan, which is considered a deposit, and asked me to send it to you first, and when the zombie is removed by you, it will be fine in a month, and he will naturally give you the final payment, otherwise, you can only take five hundred, and you have to push two thousand five. There is another one, the village chief explained, you just have to take this money, don't talk nonsense, in front of the village chief, pay special attention, don't talk about this matter. The wall has ears, and in front of the village chief, it was heard that you asked for such a high price, and when the time comes, the village has opinions, and you can't eat the money. ”
