Chapter 41 Why do you have to help the baby because you have no relatives and no reason?
After Jiang Xue left, Luo Qiaoqiao also taught us a lesson and left. I'm really confused as to how I have to endure such an unwarranted disaster.
At noon, Zhang He suddenly sent a message to everyone in the Armed Forces Department, asking us to have a meeting in the Armed Forces Department in the afternoon.
I realized that the number of people in the armed forces department is really quite a lot, there are more than 100 people, after all, these are all Taoist priests, not half-hangers like the Bagua Hall.
There are not many places here, but fortunately the floor is clean, so we all sit on the floor and wait for Zhang He to speak.
Zhang He stood at the front of us, and next to him was Luo Qiaoqiao, only to hear Zhang He's voice say solemnly: "There is a large-scale entrusted task, which is a task requested by our vassal force Bagua Hall. Recently, there was a conflict between the Bagua Hall and the Oriental Light Club, and it was time to have to fight, and after careful consideration, Yuanmen decided to help the Bagua Hall. ”
I immediately felt a little funny, why did I help the Bagua Hall, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
The Bagua Hall is a group of half-people, and the people of the Dongfang Light Club know a little more about Taoism. If the Dongfang Light Club is gone, then it will be simply Yuanmen monopolizing the entire high-end market, after all, Bagua Hall is a group of half-assers, how can they compete with Yuanmen for business? In the final analysis, it's all for profit, and helping the Bagua Hall just needs an excuse.
"Among them, the Bagua Hall has a special mission, which requires the dispatch of twenty people from the Armed Forces Department, and the dispute with the Dongfang Light Club will be handed over to others to ......handle," Zhang He said, "According to the news of Sister Yan, the leader of the Bagua Hall, Zhang Erye, the leader of the Dongfang Light Club, may have two magnificent Yin things hidden. ”
Hearing this, people were in an uproar, and Cao Da's eyes widened with excitement.
Zhang He motioned for us to be quiet, and he continued: "Such treasures should naturally be taken by Yuanmen. We have already negotiated with Sister Yan, if there are really two big femininities, we will split half with her; If there is only one, then it will return to the Yuan Gate. Zhang Erye seems to have hidden the big yin object in the tomb of his ancestor, who was once a famous figure, and it is estimated that this operation will be dangerous. Yuanmen has always been willing to go to the tomb to find the great yin object, and raise his hand. ”
People first discussed it, and then some people raised their hands in twos and threes, which was quite deserted. Cao Da also raised his hand after thinking about it for a while, and when I saw that he was going, I naturally raised my hand.
Zhang He looked at it for a while, he nodded and said: "There are eleven people who raise their hands, then there will be eleven people, if they successfully return, each person will be given fifty points, and those who find the big yin object will be given two hundred points." I'll be in charge of directing the dispute with the Oriental Light Club, with twenty points each. Set off early tomorrow morning, and the eleven people will be led by the deputy captain Luo Qiaoqiao. ”
"Yes!"
Everyone shouted in unison, and then the meeting broke up, and everyone had a lively discussion. Cao Da whispered in my ear: "I suspect that Sister Yan already has five big yin objects, naturally with that fake black wooden comb, otherwise she wouldn't be in a hurry to tear her face with Dongfang Guang." ”
I worried, "If she finds out it's fake, then we're in danger." ”
"Take it one step at a time." Cao Da said.
Luo Qiaoqiao proudly recorded the information with the people who were going to find the big yin, and after the recording, Cao Da and I went back to the hotel. Now our life is quite luxurious, we live in a hotel every day, Cao Da said that when we have time, we must find a house to rent.
When tomorrow's supplies were ready in the evening, Cao Da said that he was a little excited and wanted to go to the bar upstairs of the hotel for a drink, so I accompanied him.
After drinking for a while, Cao Damei said: "If the news is reliable and we succeed, I can have five in my hands, and then I will ......."
"Five? You're not kidding...... are you," I said in disbelief, lowering my voice, "you're dying?" Sister Yan, there is still hope for that deception, you dare to do it in Yuanmen? ”
Cao Da was about to speak, when suddenly his phone rang, he picked up the phone and chatted with the other side for a while, and kept saying uh-a-oh or something.
After hanging up the phone, I asked who called, he shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "It's the master, let me transfer the recent deposit to him, I have taken a fancy to a few good femininities, you wait, it is estimated that he will borrow from you in a while." ”
As soon as I wanted to say that it was impossible, Cao Tang's caller ID came from my mobile phone, and I picked up the phone in surprise, only to hear Cao Tang's voice over there: "Jiang Cheng, do you want to borrow some money from the master?" ”
"I still borrowed money...... I said unhappily, "Master, last time the senior brother's medical expenses were repaid by borrowing money from my classmates first, and then borrowing money from my parents." ”
Cao Tang's voice sounded a little embarrassed: "When I have spare money, I will definitely pay you back." ”
"You've been buying femininity, how can you have spare money to pay me back......"
I was rejecting Cao Tang, and Cao Da suddenly said, "Borrow him, and I will help you pay it back." ”
Since Cao Dadu said so, I could only hang up the phone and transfer all the living expenses my parents had given me to Cao Tang in the past few days. At this time, I felt a little unhappy in my heart, and asked: "Senior brother, why do you keep helping the master to acquire the feminine things, and I haven't seen him come in handy." ”
"Because it's all burning." Cao Da said calmly.
My eyes widened and I exclaimed in disbelief, "Burned? Why did the good yin thing burn? ”
"More than 20 years ago, the master's hometown was haunted, and there were evil ghosts who liked to eat babies, and it was this old man who used all means to help the villagers in his hometown fight away the evil ghosts.
Cao Da suddenly burst out of a sentence, took a slow sip of wine, took out a cigarette and lit it, and handed me another one. I took it and listened to him quietly: "The world is unpredictable, who knows that the evil ghost is a ghost slave of a great scholar, and the reason why he eats babies is to refine ghost slaves. The great priest led the ghost slave back, and the villagers, who originally regarded the master as a hero, didn't dare to let it go, and betrayed his hiding place in the first sentence. So it was found, and the whole family was found. ”
I was a little nervous and asked what would happen next.
He smiled wryly, "What can it be?" At that time, he was so injured that he was lying on the bed and couldn't move his fingers, watching his half-year-old son being dragged away by evil spirits. His daughter-in-law knelt on the ground and begged the villagers for help, but no one was willing to lend a hand. This warm-hearted person who has been warm-hearted all his life was completely crushed that day, and within a few days, his wife also divorced and left, and he was alone, maybe he felt lonely, maybe he felt guilty, and adopted the three of us to be his children......"
It's not that he is too lazy to name us, it's that he can't forget the day his biological son was born, and he didn't have much culture and finally found a few words he knew in this dictionary to get together to name his son. Cao Zhihua, a very simple name, no one knows that this is the only word that an illiterate old man knows. It is said that saving people's lives is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and his old man has been running around for his son's life all his life, and he has not seen Daluo Immortal let him follow his wishes. What is the purpose of collecting so many femininities? It's not that he wants to overtake his son, he just wants to burn it to the infant named Cao Zhihua, and he wants to tell him that when he sees his brothers and sisters underground, don't feel jealous and sad......"
Speaking of this, Cao Da's eyes were already red, he took a sip of wine, and his voice was a little whimpering: "You have not been his apprentice for a long time, but he feels sorry for you." I often tell me that if those people were like you back then, willing to save a child, they would be about the same age. I want to collect all the six yin things, not to ascend to the sky in one step, nor to achieve any ambitions, I just want to let the ghost slave who is so strong that I dare not imagine that I can do a favor, and let an old man personally say sorry to his son ■ adopted son, do not ask for him to provide for the elderly, this regret in my heart, is that no matter how hard and tired I am, I also want to help him complete it. ”
I lit the cigarette and looked at the smoke floating in the air, and through the layers of smoke, I suddenly felt like I saw a scene.
The old man dragged his tired body, trembling through the streets and alleys of the village, handing over stacks of hard-earned money, clutching the acquired femininity with his hands full of mud and calluses, and smiling with satisfaction on his lips.
"Old man, I have no relationship with you for no reason, why are you helping me like this?"
"You have no relationship with that baby, why do you want to help him?"
This conversation lingers in my mind and is engraved in my bones.
