There are more than 30 families living in Crab Bay, and the eldest mother's home is undoubtedly the largest and most numerous in this village. Before the three brothers entered the gate of the compound, they heard the sound of broken pots and jars in the house, and many villagers were already surrounded at the gate of the courtyard.

Half of the families in Crab Bay are surnamed Chen, this family is surnamed Chen, and his father's name is Chen Yuan. After being introduced by the neighbors of the village, I learned that this Xiucai's name was Chen Dong.

The three brothers entered the compound, but saw that Chen Yuan was already lying in the corner of the room, with his back against the wall. Another tall and thin man, whose clothes and pants were also torn by himself, was barefoot, looking for him in a panic in the house.

At this time, Chen Dong saw Zhang Yongjie and other three strange men coming in outside, he yelled loudly and said in a panic: "I am a talented person, and I don't have to kneel when I see the county master, which of you dares to touch me?"

Zhang Yongjie did not answer, but asked: "You are Chen Dong? Take it away directly! With people like you, reasoning is like playing the piano to a cow." ”

After that, Zhou Shaokun took a step forward and kicked Chen Dong twice, and then Zhang Erren worked together to subdue him. Some neighbors had already come in, found some ropes, tied Chen Donghua and threw him on the ground.

Some other neighbors hurriedly went to check on the injury of his father Chen Yuan, and after careful examination, there was no major problem.

Ye Feichi took a step forward, snorted, and said, "You are twenty-three this year, and you are embarrassed to say that you are a showman?" Speaking of which, you are a full five years older than me, but I was promoted when I was sixteen years old, what do you have to show off?"

Zhang Yongjie drank: "Stand up for me, stand firm." Chen Dong was scrambled and couldn't move his legs crossed, Zhang Yongjie lifted Chen Dong up, but Chen Dong deliberately fell to the ground and did not obey the arrangement.

Zhang Yongjie was furious, thinking that you can still turn the sky up today? Raising his hand and slapping him twice, he lifted Chen Dong to his feet again, but this time Chen Dong did not dare to fall again. Zhang Yongjie said hatefully: "Yes, it turns out that you like to be beaten, you have to be beaten before you can be honest." ”

The three brothers comforted Father Chen and Aunt Chen, and Zhang Yongjie explained to the neighbors: "Uncles in the township, we have taken care of this matter. If there is something going on at home between Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen, the blind date in the big hometown will help me a lot, and if the trouble cannot be solved, send someone to Genting Mountain to report a message. ”

All the neighbors nodded their heads, and this was as it should be. Zhang Yongjie said to the second elder of the Chen family: "Uncle and aunt, this unfilial son, we will take away Qiandao first, and when we return you, he must have reformed himself." ”

The two elders sighed one after another, and it could be seen that they really had no way to solve it. Chen Dong hurriedly said: "Mother, my money is very important, otherwise our whole family will not survive." ”

Zhou Shaokun couldn't hold back anymore when he heard this, and suddenly hatred rose from the bottom of his heart, anger came from the side of his guts, and he hit Chen Dong's belly in a circle with his hand.

Zhang Yongjie said to the second elder again: "Whoever comes to the house to ask for money, let him come to Genting Mountain to ask for it, and if he doesn't leave at home, he will quickly go up the mountain to tell him." The two elders nodded one after another, thanking them a thousand times.

But feeling that the matter had been explained, Zhang Yongjie took Chen Dong and shouted: "You can't walk anymore, so jump and walk." ”

Chen Dong was anxious for a while, and hurriedly said: "If you want that, you have to get me some clothes, what kind of body will you become when you go out like this?"

Zhang Yongjie looked at Chen Dong with only a pair of underwear on his body, and drank: "You tore the clothes yourself, what kind of clothes do you want now?

Chen Dong also seemed to be angry at this time, and argued: "You little children know a fart, if you go through my situation, maybe you will already be dead, that is, me, so that you can have the strong perseverance to bear such suffering." There was still a hint of pride on his face as he spoke.

Zhang Zhouye and the three of them felt really incredible, and they were speechless for a while. Zhang Yongjie slapped Chen Dong in the face with his hand and said, "The three of us brothers don't love you like uncles and aunts." is not as knowledgeable as uncles and aunts, and is good at persuasion and education, and our three brothers are even better at armed strikes. From now on, say what you say and do what, and talk less nonsense, otherwise you see if my big bowl of iron fist can show mercy to your subordinates. ”

Chen Dong was helpless, knowing that it was useless to say anything, so he had to move forward step by step. Crab Bay to Genting Mountain is the way up the mountain, and there are some people working in the countryside along the way. Chen Dong was restrained and had no power to resist, so he had no choice but to stop his face, and jumped forward step by step with his head down. jumped a little slowly, followed by a kick, Chen Dong was really distressed.

When he jumped to Yunding Mountain, it was already evening, and the three brothers directly threw Chen Dong into the firewood house, let him reflect and reflect here, and by the way, let him think about the problem clearly, lock the door, and no longer care about him.

After throwing Chen Dong into the firewood room, the three brothers practiced swordsmanship a few more times, Liu Qingqing came up the mountain, heard some movement in the firewood room, and suddenly became a little alert, and asked: "There are people in the firewood room, could it be that the fierce monk Iron Shoulder has appeared again?"

Zhang Yongjie smiled dumbly and said: "The fierce monk didn't see it, but there was a heavenly stick monk locked up in the firewood room." ”

Liu Qingqing frowned tightly and asked, "Who is the Heavenly Stick Monk?"

Zhou Shaokun smiled: "Sister Qing, senior brother is joking with you." Zhou Shaokun wanted to continue, but Ye Feichi hurriedly stopped him, Ye Feichi said: "It's just an ordinary country young man who has made a little mistake inside, senior sister don't worry, tomorrow morning, we will send him away." ”

Liu Qingqing thought that there was no danger, so she was not worried, so she did not continue to ask.

After dinner, I practiced my sword for two more hours, and it was late at night. Zhang Yongjie and the other three brothers remembered Chen Dong in the firewood room, took out half a cucumber from the kitchen, and walked into the firewood room.

There was finally a glimmer of light in the firewood room, and Chen Dong sat with a sad face. The three brothers carried a bench and sat side by side.

Zhang Yongjie is a senior brother after all, and he spoke first: "Have you thought clearly, why are you gambling?"

Chen Dong was silent for a while, sometimes sighing, sometimes wanting to speak and then stopping. finally began to speak, but he only said the word "I", and was interrupted by Zhang Yongjie in time.

Zhang Yongjie shouted: "Who has time to listen to you tell those stories of chaos? Who has the heart to care about your destiny?"

Chen Dongdao: "Then what do you want me to think?

Ye Feichi said leisurely: "Since you are a showman, you may be good at making up stories, but it's a pity that the three of us brothers don't like to listen to the stories you tell, and if we have time to listen to you tell stories, we might as well play with a dog." ”

Speaking of dogs, Zhou Shaokun thought of Jinbao again, and couldn't help but feel sad again, and said to Zhang Yongjie and Ye Feichi: "Jinbao was originally a stray dog, it was Sister Qing who adopted him, and then followed me for less than ten days. ”

Zhang Yongjie nodded and said: "It's just an adopted stray dog, and it still knows kindness and repays its owner." And now this brute, his father and mother have raised him for twenty-three years, not only is he not half grateful, but he dares to grin his teeth, has there ever been such a strange story in the world?"

Chen Dong couldn't stand this kind of sarcasm anymore, and shouted like crazy: "What do you know? You don't know anything, you only see the surface!"

Zhang Yongjie stepped on Chen Dong's chest, shoveled him down, and said angrily: "Shut up!

Chen Dong was kicked and lay on the ground, sobbing. Zhang Yongjie saw that a big man was sobbing, and he was angry and angry at the moment, thinking in his heart that either this man was under too much pressure, or this man was spineless. But in short, this man probably has a problem with his head.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yongjie threw half of the cucumber on Chen Dong and said, "Your mouth can still move, you can find a way to eat this cucumber yourself." If Campbell were here, you wouldn't deserve this half of a cucumber. ”

With that, the three brothers left the firewood room, and darkness returned to the firewood room. Chen Dong was very frightened in his heart, no one paid attention to him, and he didn't know how long he would be imprisoned, he had prepared a lot of lines, but no one listened to him tell his story, and he suddenly had a feeling that he had met a soldier.

Chen Dong thought to himself, he could only slowly survive this day, in the past few years, after so many difficulties, this time he will definitely survive the difficulties, after all, he is only twenty-three years old, it is impossible to die here if he can't get through this time.

Chen Dong silently recited: "I can't die, I must not die, many times, I think of death, but I must not die." A man, no matter what the situation is, should maintain absolute self-confidence, I am still young, I can still grasp the opportunity, in the future, to achieve a great career, wash away the tribulations of today. ”

This night, I thought about it for several lifetimes. Chen Dong sometimes stood and sometimes lay down, but I don't know how long it took, and finally there was some movement outside the house, thinking that as soon as the morning dawned, they should let themselves go back.

Before dawn, Zhang Yongjie, Zhou Shaokun and Ye Feichi wore the clothes of the Qiandao sect today, wearing a light green satin robe, and walked into the firewood room with Aunt Chen.

I saw Mrs. Chen carrying a package, and when she opened the package, she saw some cotton clothes. Zhang Yongjie untied the rope on Chen Dong's body, while the two brothers, Zhou Shaokun and Ye Feichi, stood quietly at the door. It seems that they are ready to strike at Chen Dong at any time.

Mrs. Chen took out a folded square scarf from her side, opened the square scarf, and took out two triangular folded yellow spirit runes, which seemed to be wrapped in a few grains of rice.

Aunt Chen explained: "Child, last night I went everywhere to beg for my mother, Yuan Banxian said that you are a ghost, how can you get it." Fortunately, I asked for two spiritual runes, which you can put close to your chest at any time. ”

As he spoke, he took a spirit talisman and handed it to Chen Dong, and said carefully: "Then this, you put it in your pocket, and when you pass by the fork in the road, throw it behind your back, and then walk forward without looking back." ”

Chen Dong said frustratedly while getting dressed: "Mother, what's the use of this, I told you that there are no ghosts and gods in this world, then you go to find that Yuan Banxian, that Yuan Banxian is not the silver that deceived you." If you have money to deceive him, you might as well give it to me. There is still a glimmer of life in this way, otherwise the child's life will be over. ”

Aunt Chen sighed and said: "Don't always think about turning the book, I told you earlier, if we lose it, we will lose it, you always don't listen, do you know that one day, my father and mother can't save it." You take these two spirit runes on your body, which one should be thrown and which one should be kept, you should not be mistaken. ”

Chen Dong said angrily: "It's useless to tell you these things!" As he spoke, he threw the two spirit runes on the ground.

Aunt Chen sighed and said: "Originally, our family didn't believe in this, but we had to believe in it because of you." ”

Zhang Yongjie didn't want to interject, but at this time he couldn't help but shout: "What kind of attitude do you have? Do you want to be beaten again? Auntie has been running around for you all night, in exchange for your attitude? You pick it up for me!"

Chen Dong had no choice but to pick it up, and Aunt Chen took out ten taels of silver from her arms, handed it to Chen Dong, and said: "Take these ten taels of silver, this is your last ten taels, if you learn to live in the future, you can still think of being a mother, so come back and take a look." Then he burst into tears.

Chen Dong held the silver pair in his arms, watched his mother leave, and followed him to go out. was stopped by the three brothers Zhang Yongjie, Zhou Shaokun and Ye Feichi, and tied up Chen Dongwuhuada again without saying anything.
