Because of the curse before, we once suspected that the second grandfather did it.

But now that he found this book, Jiang Li smiled: "The most dangerous place is the safest place, if we use death to erase our traces at the beginning, we will subconsciously erase the role of this person, I have to say, Zhang Duangong is a very smart person." ”

"Master, do you mean that Zhang Duangong killed himself in order to clear his suspicion? But he killed himself, and you burned the corpses, which is not worth it. ”

Jiang Li squinted his eyes and smiled at me: "You have become smarter, but there are accidents in everything, and what you see with the naked eye is not necessarily true." Now Zhu Youshu, Dragon and Tiger Sect, and the underworld have all come to this small mountain village, which is much more lively than I imagined. Put everything back in its place and we'll go. ”

I was at the mercy of the house according to Jiang Li's instructions, and the house was originally a mess by us, but Jiang Li could remember what it was like when we came in, restore them to their original places in the same way, and then leave the house.

During the day, everything seems normal and quiet in the village.

However, when I returned to the house, there were already many villagers gathered in front of my house, and most of them had heard the rumors that something had happened to my father and came to find out more.

The second grandfather came to my door one step ahead of us, no matter what the villagers asked, he just sat at the door and didn't answer anything.

The second grandfather didn't get tired of it, stood up and scolded angrily: "What is there to ask, Chen Anrong is dead, which one asks again, don't blame me for being polite." ”

The second grandfather's stern refusal made the villagers dare not ask any more, and they felt bored, so they left my house in a lack of interest.

Jiang Li stepped forward and said to the second grandfather: "Paper can't hold the fire, no matter what you do, it will be difficult to stop the crowd, just find a suitable time and tell them about it." ”

The second grandfather was now convinced by Jiang Li and his head, and nodded: "Listen to Master Jiang, I'll go see Chen Xiao and his grandmother." ”

After the second grandfather finished speaking, he entered the house, leaving me and Jiang Li to stand at the door.

Just when there was nothing else to say, a figure appeared next to the house.

An old man with gray hair, carrying an oil-paper bag and a cane, walked towards us, and when I saw him, I immediately pointed at him and said to Jiang Li, "The clothes seller is here." ”

There were no barber shops or clothing stores in the countryside, and there was not so much leisure to go to the county town to buy clothes and cut hair, and it was impossible for those businessmen to put such a big profit without seeking it, and the haircuter would carry his utensils around the villages every month, and he could make a lot of money after a trip.

Selling clothes too. We put two bags of clothes in oily paper bags and wandered around the villages, and the clothes we usually bought were bought from these people who wandered around.

Jiang Li looked at the gray-haired old man at the beginning of the film, turned around and entered the house without saying a word, and when the gray-haired old man came to my door, he had already changed into the brand-new Taoist robe and walked out.

The old man stood at the door with a flat pole, and he didn't put down the crutches in his hand, but after Jiang Li came out, he saluted the old man and said respectfully: "Old Daoist." ”

The old man smiled, put down the oil-paper bag he was carrying on his shoulder, put the cane under his armpit, and then made the same salute: "Jiang Shizu." ”

I didn't quite understand who this person was, but the second grandfather heard the sound outside the door, walked out of the house, and was stunned when he saw this old man.

Pointing to the old man, he said in astonishment, "Aren't you taken away by a leopard?" ”

Only then did I realize that this old man was the old blind man who told the fortune of my grandfather and his three brothers decades ago, and he said that he didn't need money to grind scissors, and the axe cut down the trees in the field, and when his father-in-law and daughter-in-law arrived, he would come to the village to see his grandfather and them, but he didn't expect to come.

Knowing his identity, what I was most curious about was not his ability, but the same question as the second grandfather, and couldn't help but say: "Yes, they said that you have been taken away by a leopard in order to save my grandfather." ”

When the old man heard my voice, he laughed and said, "That leopard is afraid that I will freeze to death." They took me into its nest, not to eat me, it was vegetarian. ”

I don't believe that since I was a child, adults in the family have scared children, who is disobedient, will tell the child, if you make trouble again, you will be thrown out of the door and let the leopard take away, the leopard has always eaten meat in my impression, and especially likes to eat human flesh, since he has taken him, how can he be let go.

My behavior was a little impolite in Jiang Li's eyes, he knocked me, and then asked me to step forward to pick up the old man's oil-paper bag, I immediately walked over, but the old man didn't let me touch his bag that looked too old, and said, "You can't afford to lift it." ”

I said in my heart that there would soon be a bag of clothes inside, how could I not lift it, and I said awkwardly, "I can." ”

When the old man saw that I was so persistent, he put the bag on the ground, and then entered the house with Jiang Li and the second grandfather, and after crossing the threshold, he said to me: "Little doll, if you can lift my bag, I will give you all the contents inside." ”

It's the first time I've seen this old man, but it's not the first time I've heard of this old man, this old man's mystery in my eyes is only a little lower than Jiang Li's, and even sometimes, I think he is even more mysterious than Jiang Li, Jiang Li's things are very valuable, so his things must be very valuable, so I said: "If I mention it, you really give it to me?" ”

The old man said kindly: "It's all for you, but if you can't bring it up, you won't be able to enter the house today." ”

I smiled, this is my home. Even if I couldn't lift it, I wouldn't be unable to enter the house, so I bent down and grabbed the bag, and lifted it with all my strength, but I didn't think that the bag was as light as a goose feather, and I used too much force, and I fell to the ground with a stumble.

I was about to get up, but what I saw scared me so much that I crawled backwards.

My ass hurt and I was about to get up, but I saw something terrible in front of me.

The bag I was carrying just now was gone, and standing in front of me was a spotted leopard half a meter tall, staring at me with a tigerish eye and tilting its head. Then he came up to me.

I screamed in fright, kicked the ground with both heels and moved my butt to the ground, but the spotted leopard chased after me and refused to let me go.

I was so frightened that tears fell out of my eyes, and I hurriedly shouted, "Master, there are leopards, save me." ”

But Jiang Li didn't care about me this time, he just sat inside and talked to the old man, regardless of whether I lived or died.

I moved around and put my back on the pigsty, and the pigs in the pigsty saw the leopard and were so frightened that they ran around in the pigsty as if they were crazy.

I was so frightened that I stood up. Then he ran along the road next to the house, crying and crying for help as he ran.

But the spotted leopard chased after me, and as fast as I was, it had as many pieces.

Then I ran around the village crying and fleeing, and the leopard chased after me. attracted the attention of the villagers, and some villagers shouted to me: "Your doll hit the evil rope, crying and running, which one will kill you?" ”

I snot and tears flew from my nose, and without looking back, I shouted, "The leopard is chasing me." ”

The villagers said, "Where are the leopards?" ”

After listening to the villagers, I thought that the leopard had been thrown off by me, and I would take a look. It was still behind me, and it was about to pounce on me, so scared that I was running again.

After running up and down the village three times, I was exhausted, and when I passed the door for the fourth time, Jiang Li stood up and walked out, grabbed me, grabbed me by both hands, and faced the leopard.

The leopard showed no mercy, jumped and pounced on me, so frightened that I simply closed my eyes, and kept kicking on Jiang Li's body, trying to make him let go of me, so I could run for my life.

But after closing his eyes for a while, Jiang Li patted me: "Stinky boy." Why are you so daring, don't say that you are my Jiang Li's apprentice when you go out in the future, where is there a leopard! ”

I was still in tears, sobbing and looking ahead, there was nothing else except the two bags on the ground, wiped my snot and said, "There really was just now." ”

Jiang Li frowned and put me down, and pointed to the dirt on his robe that I kicked out: "This is the most beautiful robe I have, if you don't wash it for me, you will wait to be beaten." ”

I was so frightened that my legs went limp, but Jiang Li didn't care that I entered the house again, and the old man shouted in the house: "I still have a bag, little doll, if you can lift the bag, I will give you the contents of the bag." ”

I've choked enough out of it. How dare you at this time, hurriedly rushed into the house, and looked at the old man not very friendly: "I don't want it, you don't have anything in the bag, only leopards." ”

The old man stared at me with a smile on his face: "You really don't want it?" ”

I nodded with certainty.

The old man said: "That's a pity, I can only give it to others later." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't care about the two bags outside, and sat down and talked to Jiang Li and the second grandfather. I was panting and resting for breath.

The second grandfather and the old man naturally have the most to talk about, after all, this old man is the one who changed the fate of the three brothers, but from the tone of the second grandfather, he didn't feel how grateful he was to this old man, but just said flatly: "When we met you at the time, you were also like this, and now decades have passed, even if you haven't been eaten by a leopard, you are already too old, how can you not change at all." ”

The old man always spoke with a smile, and he laughed: "I'm not like you, I don't have worries, I don't have burdens, and I live an easy life." It doesn't age so fast. ”

The second grandfather asked again: "Then how do you know what is going to happen in our village, I have been to a fortune teller before, but I am not so godly." ”

The old man smiled but said nothing.

I also took a break at this time, looked at the old man and asked: "My grandfather and second grandfather said that you are blind, but you don't look blind." ”

As soon as I asked, the second grandfather suddenly scolded me, I shouldn't talk like that.

But the old man didn't care: "This is the nature of a child." "And then he said to me again." Later, you will understand that what you see with your eyes is fake, what you see with your heart is true, and when you are blind, you can see with your heart. ”

"I don't believe it." I say.

The old man was amused by me and laughed.

Before, I was running in the village and shouting for help, and the people in the village were worried about me, so they all came to the door to ask what was going on, but when I entered the house, I was attracted by the old man, and I learned from the second grandfather that he was an old gentleman who told the fortunes of my grandfather and his three brothers, and they didn't want to miss this opportunity, so they asked the old man to tell their fortunes.

Either count the longevity, or the fortune, or the future of the descendants.

However, the old man only replaced it with one sentence: "Life and death have life and wealth, and what you plant will cause and what you will reap." As long as you have good thoughts, you will naturally be blessed and live a long life, and you don't need to pay too much attention to this. ”

After the old man answered the villagers' questions, the second grandfather took the time to ask: "The eldest and the third are dead, and now I am the only one left, and I should be soon, I will die." The Chen family is left with Master Jiang to protect you, since you have come to our village, please calculate, what is going on in our Chen family, so that I can die with peace of mind. ”

The old man turned his attention to me and said, "Actually, this time I came mainly to see this little doll." Then he looked at Jiang Li again, "Jiang Daochang is a talented man, turning over the clouds and raining his hands, there is nothing he can't solve, I won't join in the fun." But Jiang Daochang, you have to pay attention, in addition to your coiling dragon, there is also a crouching tiger hiding in this place, it depends on which of the two of you moves first, and the dragon and tiger will be injured when they fight. Jiang Daochang, you have a gentle temperament, I'm afraid you will suffer. ”
