Chapter 17: Brother Wen Ju who almost scared me to death
The day gradually brightened, and I calmed down my excitement, and I left the entrance of the hall in Anhui and returned to the ancient castle of Yao Yirong's house.
In the ancient castle of the Yao family, there were policemen standing all around, and the fat man was sitting on the sofa, still biting on the bun. On the other side of the sofa, there was a middle-aged man sitting with a Chinese face, and what made me feel even more strange was that Yao Yirong actually leaned on this middle-aged man and cried quietly.
As soon as the middle-aged man saw me coming in, he couldn't wait to stand up, walked up to me, stretched out a hand and said, "You are Chen Haisheng, you have been looking up for a long time, and you are under Yao Wenju." ”
Yao Yirong whispered to me on the side, "This is my brother." ”
I almost subconsciously wanted to laugh out loud...... Wenju stationery, this name is too joyful!
I stifled a smile and held out a hand in response politely. At this time, I also had some doubts in my heart, Yao Yirong had told me that the reason why she invited me to her party was more because her brother wanted to see me.
But why does his brother want to see me?
I couldn't help but have a very ridiculous idea in my mind, could it be that he wanted me to be responsible for Yao Yirong, although this idea was very nonsense, so nonsense that I would rather believe that the fat man could chase Si Lijing into his hands.
But if I think about it, I can't rule out this possibility, and I even said that it was panic that caused me to think about it in this way. Although Yao Yirong wants to have a chest and a good look, to be honest, I really can't stand ......that temperament.
"Can I talk to you alone?" In the moment when I lost my mind, Yao Wenju said this sentence to me. I nodded in amazement and subconsciously followed him into the room.
After entering the room, I became more and more nervous, because Yao Zhongju did not speak, but slowly lit a cigar and walked to the window, with his back to me.
Looking at his demeanor, no matter how you look at it, it feels like he wants to hold me accountable.
I made a list of ABC multiple-choice questions in my head
A: He wants me to be responsible to Yao Yirong
I broke into Yao Yirong's room and insulted the reputation of a girl, and he wanted to settle accounts with me
C Actually, when he came to me, he really admired me for a long time, so he invited me to tea.
Among the three multiple-choice questions, C is the most, but it is also best to deal with, if it is really C, then I can mean it casually, cover my heart with my right hand, say some fleshy and polite words, come to the last two sentences where and where, politely. If it's B, that's fine. The big deal is that I will tell him the cause and effect of the incident in detail, and in order to enhance the persuasiveness, I can even make an exception and invite two ghosts, or show two small spells to persuade him.
Only A is the most tricky, if he really wants me to be responsible for Yao Yirong, I am wondering if I should lie on the ground directly and beg him for mercy: "Your daughter is a beautiful and beautiful woman, and she is a beautiful woman, sinking fish and geese, and closing the moon and being ashamed...... The small congenital lack of calcium, looks like a vegetable, the previous life was undefeated in the East, and in this life there is a big cabbage, not only lacking catties and two pounds, but also a crooked neck. Bad seeds also greatly affect future generations, for the sake of your sister's happiness and the future of the Yao family, don't hand your sister into my hands to harm
Degrade yourself first, elevate Yao Yirong, in short, get rid of this trouble first.
When I was so entangled, my reason and fear were at war, Yao Wenju also turned around slowly, scared me into a stumbling position, and almost subconsciously wanted to lie on the ground, hollowing out all the adjectives, and trying to say that I was the worst one.
"Thank you for saving my sister......" Yao Wenju said slowly
"Uh...... This is what I should be," I said subconsciously politely
I didn't react until I was done, and looked at Yao Wenju incredulously
"You...... What did you just say? ”
Yao Wenju repeated: "Thank you for saving my sister Yirong from the insect master surnamed Ou." ”
Alas, how did Yao Wenju know that I saved his sister, and how did he know about the profession of insect master...... Could it be that he is also an insider?
As if sensing the doubts in my heart, Yao Wenju slowly took out something from his arms and handed it to me......
I took this thing with a puzzled look, opened it, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Plowshare witch, you ......"
Yao Wenju handed me a piece of red paper, which was cut into the shape of a plowshare with a talisman written in red letters.
In the ancient agricultural society, the plowshare was a tool for farmers to cultivate, and the ancestors took local materials and used the plowshare to put the talisman to punish the thief who stole the fruit, or harmed people's lives. Slowly, the plowshare charm has been passed down from generation to generation, perhaps because of this tradition, the plowshare charm of later generations has been cut into the shape of a plowshare, and it is also the most recognizable one of the various factions.
I held the plow talisman and asked Yao Wenju suspiciously: "You are a member of the plowshare witch family." ”
Yao Wenju shook his head: "I'm not, but my father is?" ”
His answer made me wonder, my father is a member of the plowshare witch family, but he is not the son, what is the principle, shouldn't the plowshare witch family be passed down from generation to generation?
Later, under Yao Wenju's explanation, I understood the meaning of his words. His father is the inheritor of the Plowshare Witch Family, but he is not, he is destined to have nothing to do with the Plowshare Witch Family in his life, and his father will never pass on the spells of the Plowshare Witch Family to him.
Because, this involves a folk curse, which is mainly aimed at the plowshare witch and the Luban warlock.
There is such a saying among the people, the Wu family has been extinguished for three generations, and Luban has been extinct for three generations. This means that the Dharma of these two schools cannot be passed on for more than three generations, and once they exceed three generations, they will be punished by the heavens, and they will be cut off forever, and there will be no heirs.
And in order to avoid this curse, the Ploughshare Witch Family and Lu Ban came up with a compromise method - intergenerational inheritance. Meaning, the grandfather passes it on to the grandson, but not to the son. In this way, it is not counted as three consecutive generations, and this curse can naturally be avoided.
Therefore, it makes sense for Yao Wenju to say that his father was from the Ploughshare Wu family, but he was not.
Not long after, Yao Wenju took out another thing from his arms and handed it to me, and I looked down and saw that it was a check. I wondered what he meant. Yao Wenju said that it was to thank me for saving Yao Yirong from Ou Yaofeng.
I didn't want to take this check, but after I thought about it, taking this check means that I and the Yao family are cleared, so it's okay, there is no delay, no arrears, and no cause and effect.
Thinking about it, I put the check in my pocket as a matter of course.
It's just that I couldn't help the curiosity in my heart and asked Yao Wenju a word.
"Brother Yao, can you tell me why Ou Yaofeng is pestering your sister ......?"
From a shallow and easy point of view, it is natural to think that Ou Yaofeng is greedy for Yao Yirong's beauty, and wants to get Yao Yirong, a delicate beauty.
But in my opinion, it's far from that simple. To this day, I still remember the tragic death of Ou Yaofeng under the painting building of the school. Behind him, there seems to be a mysterious black hand silently manipulating him...... Perhaps, Ou Yaofeng gave Yao Yirong a fascination, and it was also made by this mysterious black finger.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but wonder why this black hand instructed Ou Yaofeng to give Yao Yirong a fall. If it's just because of Yao Yirong's beauty, then I naturally don't believe it.
In my expectant eyes, Yao Wenju pondered for a moment, approached my side, and whispered: "Because my Yao family has something that can make people rich overnight and become a rich man second to none, that insect master will take the risk and instruct his apprentice to get close to my sister, his purpose is to get that thing." ”
Something that gets rich overnight, what is that? Although I couldn't help the curiosity in my heart, I didn't dare to continue listening, lest I just come out of this vortex and fall into a larger vortex. After following Uncle Qingsong for so long, I have also learned a truth, that is, things that should not be taken care of by yourself, don't be stupid enough to kick it, instead of being killed by curiosity, it is better to protect yourself and swallow that little curiosity into your stomach.
