Chapter 119: Retribution
"Crackle!"
Ye Junsheng threw a few burning bamboo pipes on the ground, and suddenly made a sound, the New Year's Eve, just in response to the poem "One year old in the sound of firecrackers".
This is the second New Year that Ye Junsheng has traveled through - thinking back to the first New Year, it was a difficult year, and he didn't even have a thick new clothes to wear. Fortunately, by writing and selling some couplets, I can earn money at home, relieve my urgent needs, and finally eat meat during the New Year.
Time has passed, and life has changed dramatically.
The Ye brothers and sisters not only gained a firm foothold in the big city of Jizhou, but also had their own houses, and their savings were unprecedentedly rich.
So eating meat becomes very simple.
The cow and pig that I told my sister to keep in the backyard a few days ago were fattened and ready to be slaughtered. In this way, Ye Daxiu didn't have to do it himself, but invited a butcher to come over and knife him on the side of the house, which attracted many neighbors to watch.
Kill the pigs and cows, and divide the meat, but give some to everyone who is familiar with each other, and the neighbors who used to live in the West District also give it.
Ye Junsheng originally wanted to make this matter bigger, and completely erase the nickname of "Pig Niu Xiucai" with the help of public opinion dissemination. I believe that after this incident, everyone will suddenly realize: dare to love his family to raise pigs and cattle, is to fatten up and slaughter for the New Year!
At the same time, you can get a reputation for generosity.
Distributing meat and giving rice is what the wealthy doctors do every New Year's festival, so as to win over some public opinion.
Ye Junmei, who knows the inside story, has some doubts about her brother's approach, but she will never tell others, but she inevitably has some doubts in her heart: Where did the Great Sage go?
In fact, the Great Sage was imprisoned for thirty-three days, and the pig demon was currently fasting alone. It's just that it wasn't in the backyard, but was put into the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Stone Seal by Ye Junsheng.
Since breaking the eleventh prohibition, the formation has turned, and the cave world inside the treasure seal has suddenly opened a corner, although it is not big, but it is more than enough for the pig demon to live in.
This is a mysterious world of different dimensions, which is constructed by the unique power of the magic weapon itself, and can shape all kinds of scenes. If it is fully developed, it can even evolve the earth, water, wind and fire, and give birth to new life.
Now, according to the pig demon's wishes, the place where it lives is made into a bird's nest-like shape, and the breath forms many branches and leaves, round to form a nest, half suspended in the air, like a cradle.
The pig demon fell asleep in this nest, lying on his back, and fell asleep. No one will disturb you, you don't have to worry about being discovered, if you like, you can sleep for a few days and nights, and you're happy.
You must know that in addition to opening a harem, the pig demon's ideal is to sleep, and foodies are still in third place.
It's a place like this, it's a dream.
Happiness!
As for food, naturally there will be no shortage of food, and the master will send it in. Besides, with the current situation of the pig demon, when you eat a lot of seafood, you can eat 100 catties of meat in one meal, but if you don't eat, you will be hungry for ten days and eight days. It's just gluttony, that's all.
Don't mention this ramming enjoyment, Ye Junsheng is very busy.
During the Spring Festival, visiting teachers, greeting friends and classmates are indispensable, all of which are very important etiquette issues.
Ye Junsheng was inevitably vulgar -- on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Li Yifeng sent someone to invite him to dinner; on the third day of the Lunar New Year, it was Huang Qinian's turn.
The identities of these two elders are different from the ordinary, and it is rare to take the initiative to invite a young adult, which caused some alarm in Jizhou Shilin. But thinking of Ye Junsheng's Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, I was also relieved.
Li Huang is the second elder, open-minded and funny, talking and laughing, belongs to the kind of person who does not have much of a shelf, and knows how to get along very well, which completely makes Ye Junsheng have no sense of restraint.
Ye Junsheng knew in his heart that there must be something hidden in it, which must be related to the big man behind him. But there is no need to pierce anything at the moment, it is enough to do your duty.
After four or five days of entertaining, the dust settled.
At this time, Ye Junmei proposed to return to the ancestral house in Pengcheng - Jiang Jing'er set off home with the maid Yage the day after Ye Junsheng returned.
Although the Ye brothers and sisters moved into Jizhou City, the ancestral house of Pengcheng has been retained, and Jiang Zhinian sent someone to take care of it.
It is also common practice to go back to his hometown to pay respects in the New Year, and Ye Junsheng agreed without hesitation. So he cleaned up a little, locked the door of the solitary fast, hired a carriage, and returned to Pengcheng.
During the Chinese New Year this year, there was a lot of rain and snow, and the distance was not easy to walk, so there were some blockages, and it took more than half a day than usual to get home.
As the saying goes, "If you don't return to your hometown, it's like a night trip in brocade", but when he came back this time, Ye Junsheng didn't make a big splash or anything, and he was the first in the three exams and won the show. It's just that it coincides with the Chinese New Year, but you still have to do some work, such as spending a lot of money to buy pigs and cattle again, so that people can share them with neighbors and friends.
On the Jiang family's side, they directly sent out 50 catties of pigs and beef, Jiang Zhinian was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "On that day, Junsheng raised pigs and cattle, and it was a good idea to kill them during the New Year." ”
The Ye family, the simple house is very lively, and from time to time there are many children jumping up and down, running to congratulate Ye Junsheng. At this time, it is natural to give them some copper coins, which is regarded as "pressing the year".
The boys cheered and said good things. Looking back, this group of naughty eggs were all coaxing behind Ye Junsheng, clapping their hands and singing "Pengcheng is a bookworm, nineteen don't know it; the daughter-in-law can't marry, and the sister works hard". Therefore, a change in identity can fundamentally change the perception of others.
The next day, the recovered uncle Ye Shi bowed his head and came to pay New Year's greetings, he was seriously ill and much older. Now that his nephew is beautiful, he is the first in the three tests, and he is a student of Guanchen Academy, and his future is limitless, he doesn't dare to think about it anymore.
As for the Peng family, the former overlord of Pengcheng, the twins were lost, the Hu County Order stepped down again, and the people who had been bullied were beaten and shouted injustices at the new county order.
There are gods in the three feet above the head, and the retribution is not happy.
For these, Ye Junsheng didn't have much feeling, he was now a genuine warlock, ordinary red dust grievances, he was already a little indifferent; his sister Ye Junmei was happy, she had been bullied by the Peng family before, and some partners and friends were the same, and now I heard that these bullies had suffered retribution, which was really happy.
Everything is going well and is thriving, Ye Junmei remembered that when his brother Huo Ran was enlightened, he once burned incense in the Pengcheng City God Temple and made a wish, and now he should go to repay the wish and end a heartfelt matter.
At that moment, he took his brother to the City God Temple, bought incense paper money, and poured incense devoutly.
At the end of the New Year, the city god temple is full of people, and the incense is very prosperous.
"Brother, won't you bow down?"
Ye Junmei asked.
Ye Junsheng shook his head and signaled no.
Ye Junmei immediately understood: as a scholar, my brother is always a stick of incense in his spare time, and he rarely kneels down to worship the land of the city god, so he doesn't care about him and goes straight to his own kung fu.
Ye Junsheng stood in the temple, looking around left and right, and wanted to open his eyes to observe, but he was afraid that he would be detected by the city god and show his whereabouts, which was not beautiful.
After a lot of understanding, Ye Junsheng already has an intuitive understanding of the gods in this world, it is rumored that there are three hundred and sixty-five righteous gods between heaven and earth, among them, the city god is divided into two classes: "big city god" and "small city god".
The big city god refers to the city god of Jizhou City, while the small city god is at the level of some county governments, and the rank is lower.
The immortals absorb incense with temples and statues scattered all over the country, but their true bodies often stay for thirty-three days, and only on the fifteenth day of the new year, as well as some special days, will they divide a wisp of divine thought to inspect the local situation.
It is now the New Year, and the small city god of Pengcheng is likely to appear in this city god temple, because Ye Junsheng does not dare to act rashly, if someone sees through the traces, it may cause uncontrollable trouble. You must know that he has a lot of secrets on him now, being watched by others, and even being killed.
At the courtyard of the City God Temple, there is a brass incense burner as big as a water tank, which is full of incense at this time, and the green smoke is curling, so rich that it seems to have substance, and the wind is not easy to blow away.
Ye Junsheng looked at these incense sticks, thoughtfully, and suddenly his heart sank, as if in some dark place, there was a pair of eyes staring at him, like a man's back, very uncomfortable.
Someone is spying on themselves......
He immediately realized that this was a conditioned reflex of the Dao Qi and Wen Qi contained in the spiritual light on his top. And in it, the response of Wen Qi is much weaker. If the other party's cultivation is deep and the spiritual eyes are hidden, it will be difficult to feel it. The white Dao Qi condensed by Kexian Dao is very sensitive, although it is subtle at present, it has not become a big weapon, but there is a slight wind and grass, and there is vigilance. The sages have a saying: "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall", but the main premise is that you must first see where the dangerous wall is.
Who is it?
The thought turned, Ye Junsheng quickly had some guesses, but he didn't know what to do, so he only made the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang stubborn stone seal, slightly revealing some literary aura, and then looked left and right. When his eyes met the majestic statue of the city god at the top of the hall, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but he saw the statue that originally belonged to the clay sculpture and wood carving, and the eyeballs turned around, and he was secretly surprised.
However, when you look closely, there is no movement at all.
This Pengcheng Chenghuang really appeared in his temple, is he going to come to inspect it?
Ye Junsheng's heart was pounding, and he was inexplicably a little nervous: the other party was not an impostor like a pig demon, let alone the former immortal who had lost power for a long time on the side of Helan Mountain, but a real god on duty! Fortunately, after refining the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Stubborn Stone Seal, this could conceal the Dao Qi aura, otherwise there would be trouble.
After Ye Junmei donated the incense money and finished worshipping, the two went out of the temple and went home. At this time, Ye Junsheng was relieved.
