Chapter 30: What Happened
As soon as I thought of this, I quickly got up and said hello to the old man.
Although there will be some differences between our ghost craftsmen and carpenters when they work, the essence of chasing them is to deal with wood, and they are all from the same ancestor. Therefore, as a junior, when you see your elders, you must take the initiative to say hello, which is the rule.
The old man originally closed his eyes tightly, as if he was meditating, but when he heard my voice, he slowly opened his eyes, and a pair of deep eyes stared at me for a long time, and snorted coldly, "Did you break my law?" ”
As soon as I heard it, I immediately understood that he should have done something to the window of Li Chengze's house.
I was still wondering before, why did the old man who led me in say that everything was under control, and he had been making trouble for a long time, and the culprit of this incident was actually in his house, no wonder he was so confident.
I originally wanted to ask him why he did something at Li Chengze's house, but thinking of Li Chengze's character, I instantly lost the interest in asking, but was full of curiosity about the red almond wood stained with corpse gas, so I asked him: "Old man, there is a thing, I have always wondered, why is the red almond wood stained with corpse gas?" ”
He ignored me and turned his head to the side.
Seeing this, I shrugged my shoulders helplessly, this is also a helpless thing, the relationship between our ghost craftsman and the carpenter is not harmonious, plus I broke his law in Li Chengze's house a few days ago, he naturally won't give me a good face.
At this moment, the old man who led me in, estimated that he saw my predicament, smiled at me, and said: "Young man, don't take it seriously, this He Dingguo is like this, he thinks he is the first in the world, but in fact, he is good at carving flowers with one hand." ”
"Zheng Kaiyuan, can you speak!" Then He Dingguo said fiercely on the side.
You said that you were fierce, but you forgot to glare at me.
I was also drunk, so I directly ignored He Dingguo, and asked Zheng Kaiyuan, "You came to me over, wouldn't you let me come over to be angry?" ”
He shook his head with a wry smile, got up slowly, and walked towards the back while saying, "Of course not, I came to you to ask if you were interested in knowing about Li Chengze's family." ”
What happened to Li Chengze's family?
Of course I wanted to know, knowing that the man still owed seven thousand yuan, so I immediately nodded and said, "Interested." ”
He smiled, didn't speak, and took out a set of tea sets, not to mention, although Zheng Kaiyuan's house is shabby, the tea set he took out is worth a lot of money at a glance, it should be made of rosewood, and the carvings on it are even more lifelike.
Immediately afterwards, Zheng Kaiyuan brought over another warm pot, washed the tea set slowly, brewed another pot of tea, poured a cup for me and He Dingguo, and asked me: "Young man, have you ever heard a sentence that if you don't know, you can't do it unless you don't do it." ”
I hummed, a few days ago at Li Chengze's house, he said this, I was quite puzzled at the time, so I said: "This is related to Li Chengze's family?" ”
He smiled, took a sip of the teacup, and motioned for me to drink tea, as for He Dingguo, he had a zombie face, motionless, and didn't reach out to take the teacup.
I picked up the teacup, took a sip, looked at Zheng Kaiyuan suspiciously, and heard him say: "It's still the previous sentence, if you don't know, unless you don't do it, since you have done something hurtful to heaven and reason, this retribution will come sooner or later, it's not that you don't report it, the time has not come." ”
I immediately understood that it should be Li Chengze who did something hurtful and let He Dingguo know, so I made a move on the window of Li Chengze's house, and looked at He Dingguo, I wanted to ask him. However, when I saw his zombie face, I chose to ask Zheng Kaiyuan, and said, "How do you always know?" ”
He smiled slightly and said lightly: "This matter has to start from ten years ago. ”
Ten years ago?
I'm a little confused, isn't it just the past few days, why did it come back to ten years ago.
Then Zheng Kaiyuan should have seen my doubts, brushed his beard on his chin, looked at He Dingguo, and said with a smile: "Old He, everyone else is here, are your things still hidden?" ”
As soon as these words came out, He Dingguo snorted coldly, opened his eyes slightly, glanced at me deeply, and then as if he was doing a trick, he took out a piece of wood two fingers wide from behind, I picked it up and looked at it, this wood is red almond wood, it is a little rough to start, smell it carefully, there is a very faint corpse smell.
I frowned and wondered, "This is the wood used to make the windows?" ”
The nodding was silent, and stared at me for a while, I didn't know what was going on, I felt that he looked at me very strangely, especially when he stared at the nail of my right index finger, his brows furrowed slightly, and then, as if he thought of something, he took out a Luban ruler from behind him.
The strange thing is that this Luban ruler is not the Luban ruler we usually see, but it is covered with gold, and the four sides are inlaid with bamboos the size of mung beans.
After taking out the Luban ruler, He Dingguo read a few esoteric and difficult words in his mouth, and I listened to the clouds and fog, and found that after he finished reading the words, he took the Luban ruler and slapped it on the red almond wood a few times.
His slapping technique is very weird, I have never seen it, he first stood up the red almond wood, patted it, then laid the red almond wood flat, patted it again, and finally put the red almond wood in the palm of his hand, and patted it again.
I asked him what he was doing, but he ignored me and asked me to hold the red toonwood.
I didn't think about it so much, I took the red almond wood and held it in the palm of my hand, the strange thing is that when I took this red almond wood before, I felt that this red almond wood was very ordinary, no different, and at this time I held this red almond wood, but it was cold to the bone, as if it had just been taken out of the ice cave.
Just when I felt the abnormality of the red toon wood, suddenly, I felt my head go through, and I almost didn't cry out in pain, and I turned my head to see that He Dingguo didn't know when there was an extra wooden stool in his hand, which happened to hit his brain.
Instantly, I only felt that my head was groggy, and my whole body became very uncomfortable, as if something was rushing from all sides, making my limbs numb.
Then, I don't know if I was in a coma or what was going on, but I heard a strange sound that crept into my ears, and it sounded like some kind of ghost whisper, piercing my eardrums.
After a few moments, the strange sound stopped abruptly, and immediately, a conversation between a man and a woman sounded in my ears.
The woman said: "Cheng Ze, this is not good! ”
The man said: "What's wrong, they have shared a lot of money with us over the years, and these people can only eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, so why should I give them money." ”
The woman said, "But, they are your partners after all, if they hadn't given you money, you wouldn't have been able to open a trading company!" ”
The man said: "The money they gave them at the beginning has already been repaid ten times as much, and now, this trading company depends on me alone." Okay, let's not talk about it, they have been put on sleeping pills by me, and I buried them alive while they were asleep, otherwise, I don't know how much money I have to give to the four wastes in the future! ”
The woman said, "But... Can... But I'm afraid, these are four living lives! ”
The man said, "The kindness of a woman, those who have achieved great things are not informal, don't talk about it, the pit has been dug, bring the shovel quickly, and when they wake up, it will be difficult." ”
The woman said, "Cheng Ze, this shovel seems to be entangled in a tree branch and can't pull it." ”
The man said, "You, you, you can't do any trivial things, let me come." ”
Immediately after, there was the sound of a tree tugging at a branch, followed by the heavy sound of shoveling and hysterical laughter.
