Chapter 786: The Village Chief's Son

A few months later, Ghost Jiao Bay has returned to its former tranquility. hp://772e6f742e6f%6

After this dramatic change, a large amount of nutrient-rich soil was swept into the seabed, bringing life not only to Guijiao Bay, but also to the surrounding seas, and a large number of fish swam nearby to enjoy a feast, and it was not long before it turned into a rich fishing ground.

Because the cliffs on both sides of Guijiao Bay were smoothed by the catastrophe, the terrain became no longer precipitous, and its area was also expanded several times, and suddenly became very suitable for living.

These fishermen had just moved from the interior, and their original homes had been destroyed by the flooded seawater, and when they realized the richness of the place, they gradually forgot the past of Guijiao Bay.

Over time, a small village formed along the coast of Guijiao Bay. Because it was built by the affected fishermen, the bay itself has undergone a seismic change. In order to say goodbye to the sufferings of the past, and to commemorate these events, the fishermen called their village Xinyuwan Village.

When the village was officially recognized and incorporated into the national administration, the fishermen were first faced with the dilemma of who should be their village head.

Just when the fishermen were worried, an old man suddenly came to Guijiao Bay.

For some reason, at the first sight of this place, I immediately liked it, and built a house on a hillside near the sea, and then, in the most prosperous land in the village, bought a piece of skin, and opened a fish trading house to buy fresh seafood.

This is good news for fishermen who lack sales channels.

Soon, some news about the old man spread in Xinyuwan Village.

The old man's name is Wang Jinhu, who used to be the number one person in the rivers and lakes, black and white, not only maintaining a good relationship with several major gangs in the rivers and lakes, but also being a guest of the Yelang royal family. There is even a legend that he also has a friendship with the mysterious number one master, Ye Yinhan.

Because of his advanced age and tired of fighting for life, he plans to return to his hometown to retire. It's just that his hometown is not far from Guijiao Bay, and it was completely washed away in the floods of previous years.

And many of the fishermen in that fishing village have moved to Xinyuwan Village.

Presumably, it was for this reason that prompted him to find Xinyuwan Village and settle down.

Wang Jinhu never married in his life, and there were only a few very filial apprentices who came to Xinyuwan Village with him, and Wang Jinhu handed over all the business of the fishing merchant to them.

For the fishermen of Xinyuwan Village, Wang Jinhu is the obvious choice for the village chief.

After a little discussion, the fishermen elected a few old fishermen and asked Wang Jinhu to be the village head. One afternoon, they knocked on Mr. Wang's door. Several of them were the same age as Wang Jinhu, and they were very familiar with each other, so they were immediately warmly invited in.

After entering the courtyard, the old fishermen smelled a strong smell of herbs.

I saw a thick layer of medicinal residue piled up in a corner of the house, and a middle-aged woman who looked like a servant woman was walking out of the side room with a casserole that was still steaming. Suddenly seeing these people, his expression was slightly surprised, but he immediately regained his composure, and even Mu Ran, ignoring a few people, went straight to the corner and poured out the new medicine residue.

A few old fishermen just said that they were fishermen who had never seen the world, and they didn't care.

"Jinhu, is there a sick person at home? Why have I never heard of it?" Seeing this scene, an old fisherman who was familiar with Wang Jinhu frowned slightly, and asked with a hint of doubt.

"The child is weak, I asked her to boil some tonics. Wang Jinhu explained.

"Oh, you have a son?!" Suddenly, the old fisherman froze. The other two fishermen, who also knew Wang Jinhu, looked at him strangely.

"It's not what you think. Seeing this, Wang Jinhu immediately reacted, laughed self-deprecatingly, waved his hand again, and said: "I didn't ask for a wife when I was young, and now that I'm older, it's even more impossible to ask for a wife, this son was picked up from the wild." ”

"Understood! understood!" The three old fishermen nodded again and again, but although they said so, all the people present, including Wang Jinhu, could see that they were insincere.

Seeing this, Wang Jinhu knew that it was getting darker and darker now, so he didn't explain it anymore.

After seeing Wang Jinhu's reaction, they no longer continued to entangle this topic, so they wanted to look at each other with a smile of "you know, I know", and said: "I see, Jinhu brother is kind and generous, and he is bold, God does not want to see you without a queen, so he specially gave you a descendant." ”

When Wang Jinhu heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Thank you for the auspicious words of the old brothers." Immediately, he stretched out his hand, walked a few more briskly steps, came to the meeting room, and brought in some of the old fishermen.

Wang Jinhu used to be a native of the rivers and lakes, and he was not interested in the position of the village chief, but because they represented the whole village, he almost didn't hesitate and agreed.

After achieving their wishes, several old fishermen chatted with Wang Jinhu when they were happy. During this period, an old fisherman with gray hair hesitated for a moment and asked, "Jinhu, is your son suffering from cold deficiency? ”

"Brother Shen Jing understands the principles of medicine?" Hearing this, Wang Jinhu was surprised, and then, a sad look appeared between his eyebrows, and he nodded: "Exactly." Ever since I picked up this son, I found that his temperature has been low, and he has been to several pharmacies in the town, and they all say that it is difficult to grow up. ”

"How can this be?!" said the old fishermen with regret.

"Hehe, my son is very hard, it's not that situation at all. Wang Jinhu's reaction was beyond the expectations of several old fishermen, he didn't seem to care, and suddenly said very proudly: "When I just picked up Wansheng, I thought he wouldn't live long, but I soon found out that I was wrong, he seemed weak, but in fact he was very healthy, he didn't eat or drink for several days, he was still alive and well, and he wouldn't cry about it." Moreover, he is much smarter than babies his age, not only able to understand our words, but also to do some simple body movements. ”

"You're not going to pick up a demon, are you? The old fisherman who spoke at first exclaimed, and several other old fishermen were also full of anticipation.

Seeing this, Wang Jinhu's face turned even more pale, and he immediately called in the servant woman who was boiling medicine. At his command, she returned to the outside of the hall, and it was not long before a swaddling baby was brought in her arms.

Several old fishermen quickly surrounded them with curiosity.

After a while, they praised each other one by one.

This is not because Wang Jinhu agreed to be the village head, they deliberately complimented him, but this baby is too different from ordinary families, although he closed his eyes at this time, as if he was asleep, but on his face, it revealed maturity and stability everywhere, and it seemed to be more sophisticated than them.

The only defect is that the baby's body is faintly exuding cold air.

The old man, known as Shen Jing, after recovering from the amazement, took the baby from another old fisherman, he first looked at it carefully, but it seemed that he had not gained anything, and for a while his brows were deeply furrowed, and after a while, he stretched out his finger and poked into the baby's chest.

"I almost forgot that Yunjing knew some medical skills, and when he went to sea with him, everyone never worried about getting sick. Seeing this scene, the other old fishermen woke up, and the old fishermen who spoke at the beginning seemed to be talking to themselves and explaining to Wang Jinhu.

"Brother Shen Jing, is there any major problem with Wansheng?" Seeing this, Wang Jinhu asked softly.

"I don't know, I've never experienced this symptom. Shen Jing shook his head helplessly, and then, his tone changed again, and said, "However, maybe there is a way to do it." More than 10 years ago, one of my nephews was caught in a storm while he was out to sea, and the whole ship was swept into an undersea whirlpool, and he was the only one who escaped. Soon after he returned, he contracted a strange disease, and was very afraid of cold, as if evil spirits had invaded his body. Later, he insisted on drinking the blood of a deep-sea purple octopus to save his life. Although Wan Sheng's illness is different from his, I feel that there should be a connection. ”

"Where is the blood of the deep-sea purple octopus?" Wang Jinhu hurriedly asked.

"It's hard to catch, it's not valuable, and fishermen don't usually catch it. Shen Jing's eyes suddenly flashed a hint of cunning, and he laughed softly: "Now, Brother Wang is the village chief of Xinyuwan Village, so he can issue an order for all fishermen to pay attention to when they go out to sea." Although its number is scarce, as long as you catch it, there is always a chance to catch two or three a year. ”

When the other old fishermen heard this, they immediately burst out laughing.

Wang Jinhu understood what they meant, so he smiled disapprerovitly, but the matter about the deep-sea purple octopus was firmly in his heart, and he decided to find a few to try.

While Wang Jinhu and a few old fishermen were talking and laughing, the servant woman carried Wan Sheng out of the living room. However, as soon as she left everyone's sight, there was a hint of complexity in her expression. Even the movement of holding the baby is affected and becomes mechanical. When she walked into the room on the side, the baby suddenly opened her eyes, and said slowly in an old-fashioned tone: "I have already said that I am a god sent by the Emperor of Heaven to inspect the people's situation, and I will never harm anyone. Don't worry, when my term expires, I will return to Heaven. As long as you don't reveal my identity, this god will ask the Emperor of Heaven to reward you heavily. ”

Hearing this, the servant woman just nodded again and again, but did not respond a word.

She walked over to a small cot and gently placed the baby on it. Then, bring the potion that has been cool at the head of the bed for a while, and pour it into the baby's mouth one by one. Although the baby was very unhappy, he showed a hint of helplessness and honestly swallowed one bite at a time.

After feeding the medicine, the servant woman took the empty bowl and went outside to wash it. However, as soon as she left, the baby immediately got up from its swaddling clothes, and as if pondering for a moment, she sat cross-legged, and slowly put a pair of small hands in front of her abdomen, assuming a posture of concentrating on cultivation.

However, he only sat for half a moment, and his face showed a very difficult look.

Then, he slowly opened his eyes, sighed softly, slowly put away a pair of small hands, leaned back, lay on the swaddling clothes, pulled hard, closed his eyes and rested.

Wang Jinhu and a few old fishermen had no idea about all this, and they had agreed on a special meeting of villagers to officially announce the appointment of Wang Jindu as village head.
