Chapter 017: Conspiracy

Under the attention of everyone, the little red fish disappeared into the courtyard of Dasha's house, Wu Zhenren hurriedly picked up the crystal on the ground and walked to the place where the little red fish was, rolled up his long sleeves, and gently stuck his right palm on the ground.

Dasha and his mother came out of the hall when they heard the movement, and just as they saw Wu Zhenren's right hand suddenly lifted upward, a long rainbow came out of the ground and fell into the crystal in Wu Zhenren's hand.

Dasha and his mother looked stupid, they have heard the legend of Wu Zhenren since they were children, and now they see Wu Zhenren using methods in front of them, so it is not like kneeling on the ground and worshiping piously like seeing a real immortal.

"Dasha, Wu Zhenren wants to help our village open the well at your house, and you and your mother will have to travel long distances to fetch water in the future." The king butcher in the crowd said with a smile.

"In the future, we will also go to your house every day to fetch water, so as to take care of you and your mother." A fat aunt said.

Dasha hurriedly said yes, but he seemed to suddenly remember something, so he scratched his head and said: "But I have to ask Lao Datong if he agrees, he sometimes comes to play with me, what if you don't notice that there is a well in my yard and falls into it, I will go and talk to him." ”

After Dasha finished speaking, he ran out of the house in a hurry, and the village chief scolded with a smile: "This bear child, who is his boss?!" ”

"Then who knows, it is probably his father, he should go to the grave." The king butcher responded.

After Wu Zhenren put away the little red fish, he drew a mark on the ground, then looked at everyone and said, "You don't need to ask the drilling team, you dig it, you don't need to dig deep, I tell you to stop, you stop." ”

So a group of people ran home to get shovels and dig wells according to Wu Zhenren's words, Wu Zhenren sat on a Taishi chair, Wu Zhenren said: "After a while, I will settle down, no matter what you see, you can't touch me, and you can't let others touch me." ”

Wu Zhenren closed his eyes after speaking, everyone didn't know what Wu Zhenren was going to do, but no one dared to question what Wu Zhenren said, so several people stayed by Wu Zhenren's side. That afternoon, everyone present said that they could feel a warm current to expel the cold wind of winter, and that warm current was emanating from Wu Zhenren's body, and they never thought that they could feel as warm as spring when they stood outside the cold in winter.

Wu Zhenren sat in the middle of the compound, like a god, guarding the peace of Wangjia Village.

When Wu Zhenren woke up that afternoon, his face was extremely pale and he looked very energetic, and he did not immediately stop digging the well, he said: "I can't dig anymore, let's come up." ”

Everyone didn't know what was going on, but Wu Zhenren was not afraid to be around, the well was dug more than three meters, but the width was not small, the bottom of the well was just yellow mud, and there was no water at all.

Wu Zhenren's methods are miraculous, but his ability to retrieve things from the air has been known to everyone for many years, and everyone has been replaced by the pleasure of finding Arai, so he didn't show too much surprise. The villagers of Wangjia Village almost jumped up with joy one by one, they ate the water of the old well all their lives, and every time they went back to fetch water, they had to be frightened, and they didn't even dare to look into the well, now this well is spacious and bright, the well water is extremely clean, there is nothing more enjoyable than this, everyone seems to have regained their life and seen a better future.

What they didn't know was that it was this new well that almost killed everyone in the days that followed.

When my mother heard the news that Dasha's house had dug a new well, her face bloomed with a smile, I knew that she didn't want me to have anything to do with the old well, Dasha's house was in the front yard of my house, and it was a few steps away, and it was much easier for my mother to carry water.

Nowadays, Dasha often comes to play with me, and occasionally his mother will leave him at home to eat together.

Mother happily carried the bucket to the noisy Dasha's house, and met Wu Zhenren who was walking to the back of the village, and my mother saluted Wu Zhenren and then did not enter the crowd, at that time I happened to come out of the door, and I heard Wu Zhenren muttering to himself who passed by my house: "

"No, judging from the feng shui direction I felt in my meditation, the dragon tail house is off!"

After I finished speaking, I turned my head to look at the yard of my house, and in addition to that, he saw me.

I vaguely remember the first time I saw Wu Zhenren, he touched my palm intentionally or unintentionally, and then his hand trembled, and quickly withdrew, Wu Zhenren stood opposite me like this, his eyes showed a fierce light that made me afraid, I unconsciously took a step back, and whispered in my mouth: "Grandpa." ”

My original intention was actually to call Wu Zhenren grandpa, after all, I was still a child under the age of six, his eyes were really fierce, but I didn't think that grandpa really appeared behind me, grandpa carried me on his shoulder with one hand, and then glanced at Wu Zhenren and said: "Wu Zhenren, I haven't seen you for a while, it's winter, come in and warm your hands." ”

"There are still some things in the Taoist temple, and I have to go back to get busy." Wu Zhenren and Grandpa did not show any abnormal expressions when they spoke, and they both looked very natural and decent.

I sat on my grandfather's shoulder and watched Wu Zhenren disappear into the sky, and he never looked back.

Not long after, my mother came back from Dasha's house with two buckets of water, and I looked back at my mother, who smiled and said, "How old are you and still sitting on your grandfather's head, hurry down." ”

I hummed and shook my calves to signal my grandfather that I wanted to come down, and my grandfather smiled and put me on the ground, and I said goodbye to my grandfather and followed my mother into the yard.

In the evening, my mother asked me to give a portion of the fried beef to my grandfather, who was behind my house, and I was on the way to my grandfather's house when I saw Huzi's mother hurrying out, her face was sallow and sallow, and she looked a little lost.

When I walked back from my grandfather's house, I saw Huzi's mother turn back again, she took my hand and said, "Wang Yang, do you see Huzi?" Why hasn't he come home yet? ”

I was taken aback by Huzi's mother's sudden questioning, and the plate in my hand almost fell to the ground. I shook my head and said, "Auntie, I played with Huzi for a while in the morning, and my mother called me home for dinner, and I didn't see him again." ”

"Where are you playing?" Huzi's mother asked anxiously.

"Right at the door." I pouted and motioned for us to play in the open space next to me.

"Then do you know where he has gone, and he didn't tell you?" Huzi's mother's eyes were full of longing, hoping that I would know where Huzi was now.

I shook my head, then took out a coconut candy from my pocket and said, "This is what Huzi gave me in the morning, we don't have this kind of candy paper, so he said he found a piece and gave me a collection first." ”

Huzi was my best playmate at that time, both of us actually don't like to eat candy, but we both like to collect candy wrappers, sometimes I buy candy with my mother just because I saw a certain good-looking candy wrapper, Huzi and I each have a thick book, the book contains all kinds of candy wrappers, this morning Huzi said that he found this candy candy in the candy on the table is very rare, so he gave it to me first, I have been in my pocket and forgot to eat.

Huzi's mother's eyes were full of disappointment and worry, and she covered her mouth and turned her back, as if crying.

"Then I'll look for it again." After Hu Zi's mother finished speaking, she hurriedly walked towards the head of the village, and in that direction was the old well.

When I got home, my father and mother were already sitting at the table waiting for me, and I could see that my mother was very happy with the meal, and she turned out the meat from the plate and put it in my bowl, and my mother said, "Eat more to grow up. ”

Mother mentioned Huzi, I thought of the panicked look of Huzi's mother, and suddenly worried in my heart, our children in Wangjia Village, Huzi only had a good relationship with me, and he would only play with Dasha, even if he played with other children, he should go home in the evening. Our village is perennially dry and there is no river at all, unlike other villages that drown children, not to mention that it is winter now, and the tiger will not go far.

When my mother got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks after we finished eating, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the courtyard.
