Chapter 12: More and Less
It's late afternoon. In the Sanshui Village Government Compound, Shen Gui walked to the conference room with a gloomy face.
At this moment, some senior people in the village are already waiting here.
"Agui, what's the matter?"
Shen Gui shook his head for a long time before he said in a muffled voice: "They are in a group." ”
After a long discussion, the crowd dispersed worriedly. Shen Gui also returned to his home.
It's past the time to eat. As soon as Shen Gui went home, he saw that the pots and stoves were cold, and the pots and pans didn't move. Pushing open the door and entering the house, the little grandson immediately pounced and hugged his legs.
"Grandpa, I'm hungry."
This little grandson is Shen Gui's most distressed, and when he sees his little grandson shouting hungry at this moment, his heart is so distressed that his heart is about to break. When I looked up again, I saw my wife, son, daughter-in-law, and daughter all sitting there motionless with gloomy faces, and my heart became angry again.
"Juan'er, why don't you cook? All the kids are hungry, go cook! ”
Daughter Shen Juan snorted coldly and stood up, and hard Bangbang dropped a sentence: "Whoever likes to do it, I won't do it anyway!" ”
Then he turned around and walked away. When he went out, he deliberately slammed the door hard, making a bang.
Shen Guiqi's seven orifices smoked: "It's against the sky, it's against the sky!" ”
The son Shen Fu ignored his father's anger, and just asked directly: "Dad, I heard that you gave Mr. Lu the anger to build the school?" ”
"You bunny knows what a fart! What do you call angry and go, that bullshit Mr. Lu had bad intentions from the beginning! They're in the same league as the sheriff's guys! This is to set us up and force us to bow our heads! Do you think I can give in? ”
The daughter-in-law said: "Dad, I don't understand those things, I just want to know, is it true that Mr. Lu donated money to build a school?" ”
Shen Gui snorted: "Then who knows." ”
"I've heard what Township Chief Wang said, this thing is true, it's almost done!"
Shen Gui grimaced and didn't speak.
The daughter-in-law said again: "Dad, is it that as long as you cooperate with those people from the Public Security Bureau, Mr. Lu will continue to build the school?" ”
It's obvious. Shen Gui said gloomily: "Bad intentions! ”
The wife exclaimed, "What are you doing in charge of other people's affairs?" Wouldn't it be nice to build a school for the village? Lao Shen, if you do this, the villagers will have to poke our backbones! How can you do this? ”
Shen Gui finally became angry again: "Outsiders don't understand, you still don't understand?" After so many years, what year has our village not been peaceful? It's not Dong'an God protecting it! Invite evil gods, and there will be calamity in the village! What will happen then?! ”
Shen Fu shouted: "What bullshit Dong'anshen, how many years has our village been poor, if it weren't for the road built for us outside and connected to the Internet, then the peaches could be sold?" Can you make money? My uncle is sick, he can't get out of the village in the rain, and he died of delay, where is the bullshit Dong'anshen? That time, my mother had a heart attack, and she went to the county hospital along the road for more than an hour. ”
Shen Gui jumped up, raised his slap and greeted his son: "You rabbit cub, I'll kill you, kill ......"
"You're going to kill me today! Hit! Kill me, let that Dong'an God give you a pension and send you to the end! ”
"You, you ......"
Shen Gui pointed at his son, trembling with anger and speechless.
There was silence in the room for a moment.
After a while, the daughter-in-law got up and walked outside the house. As he walked, he said, "The cub will go to school in the county in the second half of the year, and I don't care about picking it up." Anyway, it's the seed of your old Shen family, whoever cares about it will take care of it. ”
My wife also got up to leave, muttering, "I don't care." ”
His son Shen Fu snorted: "I'm busy with Taoyuan, I don't have time, I don't care." ”
Shen Gui was the only one left in the room.
"It's against the sky, it's against the sky!"
Shen Gui repeated this sentence.
The daughter-in-law finally cooked a pot of noodles, and the wife, son, daughter, daughter, and grandson ate in the side room, but no one came to call him to eat.
Originally, he thought that when someone came to shout, he would pinch the shelf again, but this time it was a failure.
went straight over, but I really couldn't pull this face. He didn't know anything, he had a cold face, went out of the house directly, went to the shop to buy instant noodles, thought about it, and didn't go home, but came to the village government.
As soon as I pushed the door open, I saw that several old guys had already come in advance.
Several people glanced at each other, each depressed.
"Alas......"
A sigh, each of them was silent.
After eating instant noodles, there was a sudden sound of running outside. After a few moments, a middle-aged woman pushed the door open.
This is one of the candidates for this generation of Dong An Po.
The middle-aged woman's face was full of panic: "Village chief, it's amazing, a bunch of rabbit cubs threw stones at my house, smashed all the windows of my house, and shouted for me to return their school......
I went to their parents, and a bunch of people were going to beat me with brooms, and I, fortunately, I ran fast......"
Shen Gui got up angrily, but after a moment he was deflated again.
My own family is like that, and in the village, I don't know how many families have grievances in their hearts.
Several people glanced at each other and looked at each other without saying a word again.
The phone rings. Shen Gui pressed the answer button, and Township Chief Wang's loud voice came out: "Shen Gui, I can tell you that several surrounding villages have heard about this matter, and several village chiefs said that they want to bring people to talk to you, so you can figure it out yourself." ”
The phone hung up, Shen Gui looked around, and saw that the dozen or so old guys were already a little flustered on their faces.
One swallowed his saliva and sneered: "That, I just remembered, I still have to go home to see the child, I'll go first." ”
"Hey, my wife is not well, I have to go back and guard."
"I'm gone, too."
In a few minutes, the person was clean. Shen Gui let out a long sigh.
Alas......
Early the next morning, Lu Qingliang's mobile phone rang. connected, and Township Chief Wang's respectful voice came out.
"Mr. Lu, the misunderstanding has been solved now, that Shen Gui has figured it out, they have agreed to cooperate with the Public Security Bureau, this, this, the school can't be built......"
"I see."
Lu Qingliang hung up the phone with a smile. When I came to Zhang Dingshan's room, I saw a smile on Zhang Dingshan's face.
"The local security office reported that Shen Gui and a total of 23 other people from Sanshui Village went to the public security station collectively to report, claiming to cooperate with all the actions of the public security bureau."
He Wei also walked in at this moment. Hearing this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and praised: "Qingliang, there is yours." Not bad. ”
Lu Qingliang smiled: "Little things, little things." ”
Zhang Dingshan muttered: "However, since the matter here is over, you better go back to the headquarters as soon as possible." When it comes to building a school, you command it remotely. ”
"Huh? …… Oh, okay. ”
Lu Qingliang agreed sullenly.
"Let's go, let's go."
The three of them parted. Lu Qingliang returned to the headquarters, and Zhang Dingshan and He Wei once again took some security officers to the Sanshui Village Village Government compound.
This time, Shen Gui and more than 20 others were already waiting here in advance.
The inquiry then began. This time, Shen Gui and the others did not hide anything, but honestly told what they knew from beginning to end.
I was busy until noon the next day, and I was able to finish all the questions. After that, Zhang Dingshan and He Wei integrated the 23 interrogation records together, and the details of the incident were presented in front of the two.
At this moment, it is time for the regular meeting again. In the video conference room, the figures of Lu Ming and Lu Qingliang appeared again.
"The matter here has been fully investigated. Here's what happened. ”
He Wei sent the file to the video conference room. Haiye City, Lu Ming downloaded the file, opened it, and started
It was just after the New Year. Lin Shiquan and his wife, with Lin Shen, who was already seventeen years old, traveled thousands of miles to Sanshui Village and found Dong'an Po.
According to Shen Gui, the generation of Dong'an Po at that time had a very high prestige in the village. Although he is the village head, he is much worse than Dong'anpo.
Dong An Po lives in the shrine in the village. The shrine is a bamboo building, and it is still there. However, because the Dong'an Po lineage has not yet been finalized to determine who it is, no one is qualified to live there at this moment.
When the previous generation of Dong'an Po was still alive, the people in the village who believed in Dong'an God would often go to the shrine to serve the gods.
said that it was to serve the gods, according to Lu Ming's understanding, it should be regarded as a venue. If there is something going on in the village, the elders of high moral standing will gather there, and under the auspices of Dong'an Po and the watchful eye of Dong'an God, they will discuss a way to deal with it.
That day, although there was nothing to do, Shen Gui still came to Dong'an Po to help take care of chores, feed the pigs, feed the chickens or something. Under such circumstances, Lin Shiquan and the three of them came to the village.
I heard that I was looking for Dong'anpo, but the villagers didn't care much. After all, there are too many such things. So someone led them to the bamboo building and met Dong Anpo.
After listening to Lin Shiquan and his wife tell Lin Shen's situation, knowing the bad luck that lingered on Lin Shen, and personally checking Lin Shen's situation, Shen Gui clearly remembered that Dong'an Po asked Lin Shiquan and his wife a question at that time.
"When you conceived this child, did you sacrifice him to the gods?"
Shen Gui remembered that at that time, Lin Shiquan and Zhao Lifang and his wife had changed their faces and trembled. After that, he knelt in front of Dong An Po and begged Dong An Po to save the child.
Seeing this, Lu Ming's brows furrowed slightly.
According to Shen Gui's description, Dong Anpo's words are very likely to speak the hearts of Lin Shiquan and his wife. That is, the truth of the matter - at least the truth that Lin Shiquan and his wife think is very likely to be so.
It is very likely that when Zhao Lifang was pregnant and Lin Shen was not yet born, she ...... Really dedicated Lin Shen to the gods. But I didn't expect to be broken by a word here in Dong'anpo.
In this way, it can explain why the reaction of the two is so great. After all, before the husband and wife searched for immortals, they didn't know how many masters from all walks of life had seen, and they had never behaved like this.
It's just that......
Is the source of Lin Shen's bad luck really because his mother Zhao Lifang sacrificed him to the gods before he was born?
What is the relationship between dedication to the gods and bad luck?
What is the deity? What kind of existence is it? What is the process of dedication to the gods? How did the gods receive an unborn fetus as a sacrifice?
If this is really the case, then how can Dong Anpo see it? Could it be that there really is some kind of "supernatural" power in this world, and this Dong An Po and the so-called gods are both aware of and master the existence of this supernatural power?
All kinds of questions swirled in Lu Ming's heart.
Shen Gui described that at that time, Lin Shiquan and his wife begged, but Dong'an Po just refused, and said that the "fate" of the child already belonged to the gods, and now, the gods did not take the child's life, but only took away a little "good luck" from the child, which is already the best result.
Dong'an Po also advised the couple not to make any more extraneous branches. Otherwise, the end will be even more tragic than it is now.
"Huh?"
Lu Ming originally thought that Lin Shen had something more on him. At this moment, Dong Anpo said that Lin Shen was actually missing something.
Something more, it's bad luck. Something less, is good luck.
But in the end, there is no difference between the two. And, if we use scientific thinking to judge this matter, that is, we think that luck does not exist, and that the essence of luck is only probability and statistical bias, then there is still no difference between more bad luck and less good luck.
Dong'an Po refused, but Lin Shiquan and his wife still refused to give up. Obviously, they have identified Dong An Po as someone who is really capable and can really help them.
Shen Gui described that Lin Shiquan and his wife discussed for a while, and finally put forward the conditions.
The two declared that they would donate 1 million human coins to Dong'an God to help Dong'an God shape statues and build altars.
Sanshui Village is a small, remote and impoverished village. Although they believe in the god Dong'an, the villagers obviously can't afford things like shaping a statue of the god Dong'an. At this moment, in the face of millions of fortunes and the temptation to shape statues for the gods, Dong Anpo hesitated, and finally agreed to the couple.
Dong Anpo knew that this matter was extremely dangerous, and it could even lead to her own death. Shen Gui described that before making a final decision, Dong An Po summoned the village elders to the bamboo building to discuss. Some people are in favor and some people are against, but in the end, it was Dong Anpo who decided to take over the business.
Dong Anpo said that she had a premonition that she was short to live. Being able to create statues and altars for the gods before death is worth it in this life.
After the confirmation, Dong An Po held a ceremony to communicate with Dong An Shen and obtained divine revelation, and the god agreed to her request.
It stands to reason that this should be a good thing. But Dong Anpo looked solemn.
Shen Gui described that Dong'an Po called Lin Shiquan and Zhao Lifang and his wife again, and then told them something.
Dong'an God has agreed to take back the child's lost "good luck" from the hands of the evil god. But, this requires a medium.

And this medium is the husband and wife of Lin Shiquan and Zhao Lifang...... Life.
