Chapter 4: Returning to the Wine Store in a Hurry for Three Years
"The hardest time is coming again......"
After all, this is the nineteenth time he has died, and he has long been accustomed to this.
Die twice more, and you get used to it.
Chen Changsheng once again lost his perception of the outside world, and next, there was boundless darkness.
That's the hardest part of the story.
This is completely different from dreaming, because the consciousness is awake, as if people in the middle of the night will constantly question themselves, and the fear born from the heart is more abrasive than that from the outside world.
When Chen Changsheng was in a state of 'death' for the first time, he almost went crazy, but fortunately, he survived, and when he experienced it later, he got used to it a lot.
Now, he can face it calmly.
During this period of consciousness, he often thinks about philosophical questions, either reminiscing about his previous life or looking forward to things outside.
Sometimes I'm bored, and I wonder how to get rid of this curse, in short, I can't let myself be idle.
In this way, you will be able to survive a cycle again.
……
At the gate of the City God Temple.
Lord Chenghuang was tossing and turning at the door, looking outside, a little anxious in his heart.
It wasn't until a figure of a day parade appeared in his eyes that the city god raised his head and walked quickly to meet him.
Hong Sancai said respectfully: "Lord Chenghuang." ”
"What did the gentleman say?" Lord Chenghuang asked anxiously.
Hong Sancai got up and replied, "Go back to Lord Chenghuang, Mr. Chen, he agreed, but ......"
"But nothing."
"Sir, he said that he would have to wait until today, three years later, to come to the banquet."
After hearing this, Lord Chenghuang's heart finally fell.
"It's good to come, it's good to come."
A smile appeared on the face of Lord Chenghuang, and he stroked his white beard, and he was no longer as nervous as before.
He set his eyes on Hong Sancai and said, "Good job, the previous Yin Ghost made the merits complete, and he has entered reincarnation, and now the position is just vacant, you will be the Yin Ghost Envoy next." ”
Under the city god, there are four divisions and three envoys, and the Yin Ghost Envoy is one of the three envoys, in charge of the day parade and the night parade, and the position is like the head catcher in the yamen.
After hearing this, Hong Sancai hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Lord Xie Chenghuang is promoted!" ”
Lord Chenghuang put his hands behind his back and said, "Get up, just do your own thing in the future, and besides, how about you talk to me about this Mr. Chen?" ”
Hong Sancai understood in his heart and promised: "Obey the order." ”
And so he said in his heart.
I am stained with Mr. Chen's light.
Now it seems that Mr. Chen is much more powerful than he thought, and even Lord Chenghuang has to try his best to invite him.
Thinking of this, Hong San couldn't help but think of the days when he sat down and talked with Mr. Chen before his death.
In this way, it's just that I don't have this fairy fate.
If you can't catch it yourself, you can't blame others.
……
Time flies, and the years turn.
Old man Zhang still opened his wine shop, and when he saw Mr. Chen that day, he asked what he didn't dare to ask for a long time, and he was worried about it for a few days, but when he slowly recalled, he felt less scared.
He remembered what Mr. Chen said again, thinking that he should indeed find someone to pass on his craft, but now that he is old, it is impossible to have an heir, so he can only find it slowly.
And Hong Sancai, the original master of the Liuyun Temple, took a group of people to parade day and night, wandering among people and ghosts, maintaining the peace of Qiuyuefang.
Speaking of which, this can be regarded as immortality, but it is no longer human.
And the Xuanhuang left in the Liuyun View has also become the new master of the Liuyun View.
In the first year after the husband left.
Anning County, to which Qiuyuefang belongs, suffered a heavy snowfall.
This heavy snowfall is extraordinary, just in Qiuyuefang, there are more than ten families whose houses are crushed by the heavy snow, and many people never wake up after sleeping, and are frozen to death in their dreams.
The government and citizens immediately organized a response to the disaster, and although it improved a lot, many people were displaced by the heavy snowfall.
It was also in this year that the Taoist chief in the Liuyun Temple came down the mountain and brought five children up the mountain from the bottom of the mountain, four men and one woman, all of whom were children.
It's a new reincarnation.
And Hong Sancai, who is a ghost god, also knew about it, so he went back to the mountain to take a look.
Seeing that Guannei was rejuvenated again, he couldn't help but feel a lot more comfortable in his heart.
Winter goes to spring.
Many people died in the winter, and those who survived still had to face a new life.
There were many beggars in all the squares of Anning County, these people were homeless in the heavy snow, and they became beggars before they were frozen to death and starved to death.
And the old man Zhang in the Qiuyuefang wine shop also took in a little beggar in the year of spring.
The price is half a piece of chaff.
Old man Zhang has a good eye, the little beggar is very able to endure hardships, it was cold in early spring, and he followed him to the mountain stream outside the fang to fetch water, and he didn't say a tired word.
It's also a treasure that has been picked up.
After the disaster, people's livelihood gradually recovered, and Anning County also returned to its former calm.
There are always idlers sitting around under the trees in the streets, talking about interesting things, and the teahouse is full of people and lively, along with the noodle restaurant by the bridge.
————
In the blink of an eye, it was three years......
————
One day, the temple suddenly closed its doors.
It is said that there are ghosts and gods who gave a dream to the county commander, and the county magistrate of Anning County personally came to Qiuyuefang and ordered someone to block the surrounding area of the City God Temple, and no one was allowed to approach the City God Temple for three days.
All this is waiting for someone to come.
The little beggar who was taken in by Old Man Zhang at the beginning is now in the year of dancing elephants, wearing a felt hat on his head, looking like a little two, looking strong, and his skin is also dark.
And after Old Man Zhang took him in, he gave him a new name - Xiaoliu.
A pair of soap boots stepped into the liquor store.
The person who came put the gourd on the stage and said, "Qiuyue brewing, first serve a pot, and the gourd is full." ”
Xiao Liu looked at the wine gourd handed over, and when he saw the size, he was a little embarrassed: "Guest officer, in recent days, Qiuyue has sold a lot, and the rest, I'm afraid I can't beat this gourd." ”
"Not enough?"
Xiao Liu heard this voice and raised his eyes.
I saw that the gentleman in the green shirt turned around and looked at him.
Xiao Liu was a little in a trance, he had never seen such an elegant person in Qiuyuefang for so many years, and even that face gave people a sense of purity.
Chen Changsheng saw that this person was not very old, so he asked, "Where is your shopkeeper?" ”
Xiao Liu came back to his senses and said, "Our shopkeeper went to fetch oil, and he will be back in a while." ”
Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said, "Then I'll just wait for a while." ”
Xiao Liu nodded and beckoned Chen Changsheng to enter the door.
"Sir, sit down first."
Xiaoliu asked, "Does Mr. drink tea, or wine?" ”
"Naturally, when you come to a wine shop, you drink." Chen Changsheng said with a smile: "The gourd is not satisfied, but there is always a pot on it, right?" ”
"Yes."
Xiao Liu agreed and said, "Sir, wait a moment." ”
Chen Changsheng waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”
Xiao Liu then went to drink.
Chen Changsheng sat in the wine shop and looked at it.
Not to mention, the change is quite big, Old Man Zhang also renovated this wine shop, and it looks like there are a lot of rules.
And Xiao Liu looked at that gentleman from time to time, he thought to himself that with such a talking temperament, this gentleman must be extraordinary, and he must not be neglected.
