Chapter 1: The Mysterious Tortoiseshell
Luo Tianwang was born on the fifth day of May 1995. The fortune teller said that Luo Tianwang had several difficulties in his life, and after these difficulties, he would definitely become a dragon and a phoenix, and his future was limitless.
After Luo Tianwang was born, he was no different from other children, and Luo Tianwang's family began to think that the fortune teller was a lie. No longer take the words of the fortune teller to heart.
Like most of the fine men in the village, Luo Tianwang was only more than a year old, and Luo Tianwang's mother, Zeng Hongmei, also went to the coast to work with her father Luo Zhengjiang. Luo Tianwang stayed in the countryside with his grandparents. Only during the Chinese New Year can I see my father and mother once. Every time his father and mother came back, it took a long time for Luo Tianwang to slowly find the familiarity of his father and mother. But that kind of family affection will always fade.
When his father and mother came back, Luo Tianwang would sleep in the same bed with his father, but in the middle of the night, Luo Tianwang would always get up and try to see clearly who was sleeping with him. A child will not sleep with a stranger because that would make him feel insecure. Although the biological parents are strangers, they will not have a sense of security.
Zeng Hongmei giggled and asked Luo Tianwang: Cub, don't you recognize your father and mother?
Luo Tianwang fell asleep again in a daze.
Luo Tianwang grew up a little bit slowly, and when his father and mother came back for the New Year, he didn't sleep with his father and mother anymore.
When he was eight years old, when Luo Tianwang was herding cattle, he went swimming with the little children in the village. The water in the river was deep, but it was nothing to the little kids in the village. Luo Tianwang went down with a fierce son, he could hold it in the water for a minute or two, and he could swim from the bottom of the water to the other side of the river in one breath.
There are river mussels at the bottom of the river, the big ones are the size of an adult's palm, the meat inside is fat, put some sour peppers in the jar and fry them to eat, the taste is particularly delicious. These mussels are hidden in the mud at the bottom of the river. First step on it with your foot to find the location of the river mussel, and then plunge down with a fierce son to touch the river mussel.
"Tianwang. Look, look at this, Big Mac, I've touched several of them like this, big ones. "Luo Shenggui is the same year as Luo Tianwang, and they are neighbors, and the two have been playing together since childhood. Luo Shenggui had a high fever and burned all night when he was a child, but it was cured, but it became a stutter. The doctor said it was a burnt head.
Luo Tianwang glanced at the huge river mussel in Luo Shenggui's hand with disdain: "What is that? I'll show you a bigger one later." ”
Luo Tianwang stepped around in the river, and finally stepped on something that looked like a river mussel in the middle of the river. Hurriedly stabbed down. But when Luo Tianwang's hand touched the thing, and then wanted to touch the thing out, he accidentally cut his hand. It was as if he had been bitten by something, but Luo Tianwang was unwilling to give up what he had in his hand. I thought my hand had just been cut by the tip of the back of the mussel shell.
Luo Tianwang dug the thing out of the dirt with all his might, then jumped out of the water with both hands and vigorously jumped out of the water, then stepped on the water with both feet, held the "river mussel" he had just dug out with both hands, and shouted at Luo Shenggui: "Shenggui! Look, the river mussel I touched is much bigger than yours!"
"Tianwang, you, you, you're not a river mussel! That's, yes, it's ......" Luo Shenggui rolled his eyes a little, and the latter sentence just couldn't be said.
Luo Tianwang swam to the river, and then took down the thing he was holding in his hands and took a look, it was really not a river mussel, but a very strange thing. What was finally found out of the river, Luo Tianwang was reluctant to throw it away. Crawled to the shore and looked at the things in his hands carefully, this thing was very strange, and there were words engraved on it, but Luo Tianwang didn't recognize this word. Luo Tianwang knew what this word was. I saw it on TV, and I said it was an oracle.
Luo Tianwang's hand was cut in the water, and the blood still didn't stop at this time, but Luo Tianwang didn't pay attention, let alone notice, the blood on the wound dripped onto this thing, and the blood soaked into the words engraved on it, like a stream soaking into a river. All the words on it were soaked in at once.
Those oracle bone inscriptions actually seemed to come to life, and one by one the words turned into golden lights, which suddenly flew out from the thing, and then drilled into Luo Tianwang's head.
Suddenly, a lot of things were about to get into his head, making Luo Tianwang feel as if he had been electrocuted, and he was stunned on the spot.
Luo Shenggui was still touching the mussels in the river, and he didn't find Luo Tianwang's abnormality at all. When he was a little tired, he climbed up from the river.
"Tianwang, why are you so lazy, I'll go back later, I don't, I won't give you a mussel. Luo Shenggui was a little angry. I didn't expect Luo Tianwang to be lazy.
But Luo Tianwang didn't react at all, Luo Shenggui thought that Luo Tianwang was asleep, so he walked over and pushed Luo Tianwang: "Tianwang! ”
Luo Tianwang leaned and fell straight to the side.
Luo Shenggui watched Luo Tianwang fall straight upright, just like those dead people on TV. I thought Luo Tianwang was also dead, so I was so frightened that I threw down the mussel and ran home, and shouted all the way: "Oh no!
When the people in the village heard Luo Shenggui's shout, they would only think that it was a child playing at home, and no one took it seriously.
However, Luo Baolin was very unhappy when he heard Luo Shenggui's shout, and ran out and asked viciously: "Shenggui, are you shouting nonsense?"
"Grandpa Baolin, Tianwang is dead! right by the river!" Luo Shenggui shouted loudly with a crying voice.
When Luo Baolin heard this, his expression immediately changed, Luo Baolin didn't seem to be telling a lie, and he ran to the river quickly with his bare feet. It's summer, and the bluestone slabs on the road are hot like red-hot soldering irons from the sun. Luo Baolin could even smell the burnt stench of the soles of his feet from the slate. But he didn't bother to put on a pair of sandals.
Luo Baolin ran to the river, and saw Luo Tianwang lying on the shore at a glance, and half of his hanging heart was relaxed. He originally thought that his grandson had fallen into the river and drowned. Since it is on the shore, there should be no major problems.
"Tianwang!" Luo Baolin ran over and hugged Luo Tianwang, such a big sun, even if there is nothing wrong.
Luo Tianwang's body was cold, Luo Baolin hurriedly probed Luo Tianwang's nose with his fingers, and there was still breath. thought Luo Tianwang was asleep: "This stammer! Go back and settle accounts with him." ”
When Luo Baolin was about to carry his grandson on his back, he found that his grandson was still holding something in his hand, and when he picked it up, the color of his face changed, and Luo Baolin looked at this thing as if it was a tortoise shell. The tortoise shell is a very mysterious thing, and only those yin and yang in the countryside will come into contact with this thing. Luo Baolin had a faint sense of foreboding in his heart. suddenly recalled what Luo Tianwang said when he was a child, the fortune teller. This time I'm afraid it's a catastrophe for Tianwang.
On the way home with Luo Tianwang on his back, Luo Tianwang woke up several times, and once called grandpa. But Luo Tianwang seemed to be too tired, and his eyelids couldn't open a little.
