Chapter 29
During this sleep, Li Zhuiyuan slept deeply. He didn't dream, didn't get up, and didn't even change his sleeping position. He simply closed his eyelids and opened them again. The long night was over.
She habitually turned her head to the side, and without any surprise, the girl sat on the chair near the door.
But soon, Li Zhuiyuan discovered something was wrong because the girl didn't change her clothes.
She was still wearing the same black training uniform from yesterday, and the stains she got while rushing to work were still clearly visible.
This means that the girl did not go back to the east room to sleep last night. She sat here all night.
Li Zhuiyuan probably guessed why the girl did this, because she was too exhausted yesterday and she was worried that she might die suddenly while sleeping.
This reason, which is difficult to understand in the eyes of outsiders, is the girl's purest and simplest idea.
Although she had never spoken in front of him since their first meeting, Li Zhuiyuan found that he could understand her more and more.
Get out of bed and walk to the girl.
The girl's face is still delicate, and there is no trace of fatigue.
Maybe, she used to stay up late like this, and in her world, the concept of day and night has long been blurred.
Otherwise, Liu Yumei would not remind herself often to coax Ali back to the east room to sleep every night.
The girl raised her head and looked at the boy.
In her eyes, Li Zhuiyuan saw an almost complete version of himself.
It's not like he hasn't analyzed why girls treat him so differently.
Everything started from the night when the cat demon old lady came. The girl stood on the dam, raised her head and looked at herself standing on the second floor terrace.
He should be the first person to enter her dream.
This is by no means a pleasant dream, because her eyes can see the terrifying backside of this world.
A ten-year-old... no, it should be earlier and younger, she was already like this.
It is unimaginable how a young child, who is learning to speak, must face such an environment. Looking around, there is endless ugliness and evil.
She should have cried, been afraid, and screamed, but the world did not change due to her emotions. In the end, she chose to change herself and completely close herself.
Symptoms such as autism, obsessive-compulsive disorder, aphasia, etc. are only external manifestations. The real internal cause is that she rejects all contact with the outside world.
Although she blushed a little, it was a fact. To the girl, her appearance that night was like a beam of light suddenly appearing in the dark night.
She was like a balcony sealed with glass windows. She stood on the balcony and carefully contacted and perceived the outside world through herself.
Perhaps, he just happened to temporarily carry all her passion and expectations for the world at this moment.
But at the same time, doesn't she treat herself the same way?
Mother already hates herself, and father can no longer tolerate this family. Whether it is Grandpa Nan or Grandpa Bei, he is not the only grandson.
But at least for the girl in front of her, her eyes were full of herself.
Li Zhuiyuan stretched out his hand to help Ah Li tidy up the messy hair around her ears, but the girl stretched out her hands first, hugged his neck, and then pressed her face against his chest.
Ever since she saw herself doing this to Li Sanjiang that day, she remembered it and fell in love with it.
She has been secretly imitating, clumsy but cute.
Li Zhuiyuan had no choice but to reach out and pat her head, and continued to read the line:
"I will buy you whatever Ah Li wants. I have money, lots of money."
Although this line was a bit inappropriate, the girl was very satisfied.
She moved away from the boy's chest and looked at him with bright eyes.
Li Zhuiyuan knew that she was expressing joy just now, celebrating her "initial recovery from a serious illness."
Yes, in her eyes, she was extremely tired from staying up late yesterday.
Li Zhuiyuan looked at Ah Li with a smile and said silently in his heart:
"Actually, we are both very sick."
……
I woke up later than usual today, and everyone else had already had breakfast.
When Li Zhuiyuan took Ah Li's hand and went downstairs, Liu Yumei was drinking tea with her head down on the dam.
Li Zhuiyuan didn't dare to take a closer look at Grandma Liu's expression. Anyway, it wasn't very pretty.
Aunt Liu set up breakfast and walked over with a suggestive look in her eyes.
Li Zhuiyuan understood and said to Ali: "Go and wash up with Aunt Liu. If you feel sleepy, go to bed."
Ah Li turned around obediently and walked towards the east room. Aunt Liu followed and closed the door.
Li Zhuiyuan sat down and started having breakfast.
While eating, Li Sanjiang walked back from the toilet behind the house, came to it, bent down, took a closer look, and said, "Xiao Yuanhou, your complexion is much better today than yesterday."
"Master, please sit down. I have something to tell you. I was too tired yesterday and didn't have time to say it."
"Short of pocket money?" Li Sanjiang touched his pocket and took out a denomination that was almost impossible to find in the pocket money of children in the village. He placed it next to Li Zhuiyuan's porridge bowl. "If you need money, just spend it with your uncle." Said, Sir, I have plenty of money.”
Li Zhuiyuan was not in a hurry to get the money, but said:
"Master, at the table at Lao Zhao's house the night before yesterday, you were not drinking alone, but with two people. One was Brother Bao, the owner of the video hall who was investigated by the police the day before yesterday. He is dead. The other was Zhao Xing. , you didn’t notice in the dark, he is the son of the old Zhao family, and the funeral the day before yesterday was for him. They are not alive, they came to you to drink to ask for your help..."
"Wait, wait!"
Li Sanjiang interrupted Li Zhuiyuan, stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, then put his palm on his own forehead to check the temperature, and said doubtfully:
"Ouch, I seem to have a fever, and I'm talking nonsense."
"Master, what I said is true. The two of them came to you for a drink to ask you to help go to the house of a man named Lao Jiang in Shigang Town and get rid of a Tai Sui in a pond and water tank. If you don't agree, They will come to trouble you again, you better be careful these days.”
"Xiao Yuanhou, what do you mean, my master, I was drinking with two dead people that night..." Li Sanjiang suddenly lowered his voice, "I was drinking with two dead people, and we drank until midnight?"
"Yeah."
"Oh, it's my fault. I shouldn't have told you about the dream I had yesterday. It gave you nightmares at night. You think about it every day and dream about it at night."
"I didn't, Master. What I said is true. I have prepared some useful things. I can help you solve it then..."
"Okay, okay, I believe what you say. Come on, after breakfast, I will take you to Zheng Datong's place to take your temperature and give you an injection."
Li Zhuiyuan smiled and said: "Master, you were not frightened by the story I made up. You are so awesome."
"Hey, you little sparrow, you still want to scare me. I was drinking with others until midnight. Wouldn't I know? Marquis Runsheng didn't see it, but you did? There are too many loopholes in the story. This is too... Without further examination.”
"Well, I'll make it better next time."
"Spend more time on your studies and less on these silly things. By the way, starting tonight, I will continue to help you."
Li Sanjiang patted the boy on the shoulder and stopped mentioning going to the clinic for an injection. Instead, he walked into the house and went upstairs. He wanted to catch up on more sleep during the day and conserve energy.
What if I dream tonight and have to lead those zombies in the Forbidden City?
Li Zhuiyuan lowered his head, picked up the half-eaten salted duck egg, looked at it while turning it, and murmured to himself:
"It shouldn't be, why doesn't it make sense?"
“That’s right if it doesn’t make sense.”
This is Liu Yumei's voice.
Li Zhuiyuan stood up and walked over: "Grandma Liu, what did you just say?"
"The tea has cooled down. Make another pot and put less tea leaves. Your taste will be light today."
Li Zhuiyuan nodded and started to make tea. He understood the meaning of Liu Yumei's words. In this family, when talking about some special things, you have to taste it briefly and never say it out loud.
It's the kind of thing where each other understands each other and plays some riddles.
Liu Yumei leaned slightly on the chair, looked at the boy and said:
"Do you think your grandpa is a little stupid sometimes? He just can't see certain things clearly, and he just can't listen to some words?"
Li Zhuiyuan nodded.
"Kid, this is normal. People are like this when they get old.
At your age, you are full of energy and have an instinctive curiosity about new things. However, when normal people reach middle age, they are somewhat resistant to accepting new things and will naturally become conservative.
When they get old, most of them only believe in one thing, which is to follow their old habits and keep rolling like a hoop until they roll into the coffin.
They tend to become very stubborn and stubborn. If you say they are wrong, they will think you are young. You say they should not do this, but they live to this age according to their own way.
Right or wrong is not important to them. Being able to live to old age is the best proof, and it is also a kind of skill. Do you understand? ”
"I kind of understand it, but I still want to hear more."
"Heh." Liu Yumei picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and asked, "Tang Yin has a song called "Peach Blossom Temple Song", have you read it?"
"Read it."
"The last two sentences."
"The world laughs at me for being too cool, but I am a fool and the world can't see through it. I remember the tombs of heroes in the Five Tombs, working in the fields without wine or flowers."
"Yes, you laugh at him because he doesn't understand, and he laughs at you because you don't understand life."
"Grandma Liu, do you mean that my grandfather is deliberately pretending to be deaf and unable to listen?"
"No, your grandpa is not as good at acting as a little guy like you."
"Grandma was joking."
"What do you think of your great-grandfather?"
"My grandpa has a lot of stories. Sometimes I think I understand it, but sometimes I find myself confused."
"You think it's too complicated. Think of things more simply and don't involve so many twists and turns."
"Grandma Liu, you got me in again."
"Your great-grandfather is actually your great-grandfather. There is nothing unusual about him. The only difference from others is that he is richer. No, he is too rich."
"Too rich?" Li Zhuiyuan began to think, what does "money" here refer to?
“This person, if he has a lot of money, he will easily become arrogant, self-righteous, and unable to listen to what he is saying.
But there is no way, who told him to be rich?
Sometimes, if you have money, you can do whatever you want. Many things can be settled with money.
But spending money to gain a relationship is, after all, a shady thing. Sometimes even I don’t know where the money goes. Anyway, when the matter develops to a certain point or a certain stage, it is inexplicably settled. , I also feel that I am living through this difficult time in a daze.
And those people around him, time and time again, came back to their senses and hated him with itch.
It's not that I really hate it, it's just that I can't stand it but I can't do anything about it. In the end, I became numb and accepted it. ”
Li Zhuiyuan asked: "Grandma Liu, if you live with a rich person, can you also pick up money and make a fortune?"
Liu Yumei looked at the boy in front of her meaningfully. She knew that the boy understood.
"Hey, how can I really have money all over the ground for you to pick up? I just occasionally pick out a few cents from the corners of the dam. I don't know how long it will take to save up enough to give it to Ali. Buy a piece of candy.”
Li Zhuiyuan took out the banknote that his grandfather had just given him and asked, "Then my grandfather didn't know he had so much money?"
"He probably just thought he had a little money, but he didn't expect that he was so rich, so rich."
"Then Master, can you take the initiative to spend this money?"
"Hahaha..." Liu Yumei covered her mouth and laughed, "What you asked is a bit too naive. He doesn't even know he has so much money, so how can he take the initiative to spend it?"
"But the money was still used?"
"Yes, it has been used."
Li Zhuiyuan drank all the tea in the cup. The doubts about the master that had been lingering in his heart were finally solved at this moment.
The money mentioned in the conversation just refers to luck and luck.
People with abundant luck can often turn bad luck into good fortune and find peace and prosperity.
According to Grandma Liu, to look at things simply, the grandpa is the grandpa, a very ordinary corpse collector in Siyuan Village.
To a certain extent, Uncle Shan seems to be more professional than Mr. Tai in terms of business capabilities.
Because of this, it would appear very strange when fortune applied to the grandpa.
Because I don’t really know many things, and my utensils are useless and don’t have enough carrying capacity, when the so-called good luck appears, it will be difficult to rationalize it, and it will become more and more excessive. Divided and outrageous.
For example, last time at the Niu family's birthday party, both Liu Xiazi and Uncle Shan were bewitched, and they ended up in such a mess, but the old man actually fell asleep leaning there, and nothing happened.
Another example is the drinking session the night before yesterday. My grandfather just happened to drink and vomited, and then fell asleep. The next day, he felt that he had just dreamed.
Most recently, just now, I was face to face with my grandpa. When I formally stated what happened at the wine table the night before yesterday, my grandpa didn't listen at all and thought that I was naughty and making up lies.
This actually seems very unreasonable. No matter what, we should not have such a dogmatic attitude.
Occasionally I can understand it once, but if it happens every time, it's not just a coincidence.
So, he is avoiding?
No, it was it that influenced Grandpa to escape and seek the safest transition.
The master is not stupid, nor is he pretending to be stupid, but there is an invisible hand that will fiddle with him at certain times, which makes his behavior look a bit stupid.
Using this logic, it seems that everything that happened before can be explained.
Why do I feel that my grandpa is unfathomable at one moment and unreliable at the next? Why do Liu Xiazi and Uncle Shan always show such a hateful but helpless attitude towards my grandpa? They have known each other for decades. , I am afraid that it is just like Liu Yumei said, I am numb and admit it.
Li Zhuiyuan could not imagine that a person's luck could be so good.
He suddenly remembered that he once told his grandfather's fortune. It was his first attempt, and he deduced it based on his face. As a result, he calculated a fortune that was completely reversed for his grandfather.
That time really hit me hard, and it was the first time I experienced the frustration of learning. But what if I didn't actually make a mistake?
After all, after reading the faces of Xue Liangliang, Zhao Hequan and others, I quickly got the correct confirmation.
But if I hadn’t made a mistake in my calculations, how deep must my grandfather’s luck be in order to completely cover this fate... or even reverse it?
Li Zhuiyuan asked: "Master, have you never doubted it?"
Liu Yumei picked up a piece of snack, took a bite, and replied:
"Who would take the initiative to suspect that there is something wrong with themselves just because they have lived a comfortable and disease-free life, and often walk by the river but never got their shoes wet? You must dig out and reflect on the reasons why you are living so smoothly. , what happens after you find out this secret? Is he sick? "
Li Zhuiyuan realized that he had indeed asked a very stupid question. Who would think that good luck is a disease?
However, he quickly thought of another thing: "Will the money be used on other people?"
"What do you mean, you also want to pick up money?"
"No, I'm just making an analogy. For example, will the role of this money affect me?"
Liu Yumei pursed her lips and her eyes flickered, as if she wanted to avoid the question.
Li Zhuiyuan continued: "There were several times when I found dirty money. My first reaction was to hide it from the master and not tell him the truth. It took me a while to realize that I shouldn't hide it. But when he really told him about the dirty money, he didn't believe it every time.
I don’t believe it, but I can understand it now; what about the change in my reaction earlier, is it affected here? ”
"Want me to tell you?"
"Think, Grandma Liu."
"But I'm afraid you'll regret knowing that."
"How could that happen?"
Liu Yumei's fingertips gently rubbed the edge of the tea cup, and her eyes fell on the note the boy just took out:
"Some things have already been marked in secret, and the price has been marked, and the transaction has been completed."
Li Zhuiyuan's mind was immediately shaken, and he looked at Liu Yumei in disbelief.
Liu Yumei continued: "Tell me, since you were taken into your grandfather's home, what's the difference between you and Runsheng's grandfather?"
Li Zhuiyuan stared at the ground in a daze, and a series of events in the past quickly emerged in his mind.
The old man did not hesitate to drag his injured body to go to Niu's house to earn money. In the end, he went to communicate with the cat-faced old lady and helped the cat-faced old lady design a revenge plan, and also let the cat-faced old lady "die" from the old man's peach wood. Under the sword.
The grandfather was invited to go to Jiuwei Port to exorcise Yingzi's grandparents, and he went to work as a river worker. Then he and Xue Liangliang were infected with spots, and finally met the grandfather after going to the People's Hospital.
Next, the two key figures who really dealt with the Baijia Town incident, Xue Liangliang and Uncle Qin, were found by themselves, while the master just went home and took a nap.
The night before yesterday, the grandfather and the two non-human guys drank until late at night. In the end, the grandfather thought it was a dream. Runsheng didn't see it. He was the only one who witnessed the whole thing. Then he worked all night without taking any rest. Make tools and prepare to fight back.
These three matters are all directly related to the master, but it seems that the person who handles them in the end is himself?
From this point of view, there is indeed no difference between himself and Uncle Shan.
"I know, you kid seems to be able to see dirty money. Tell grandma when it started."
Li Zhuiyuan recalled that it started after meeting Little Oriole... No, to be precise, it became more obvious and more intense after he guided Little Oriole under the leadership of his grandfather.
In "The Record of the Righteous Way to Conquer Demons", this characteristic of myself is very similar to "walking in the dark".
Living people have too much breath of the underworld, and the road to the underworld and the road to the underworld are easy to get sidetracked, and they see things they should not see. The book also specifically states: It is especially serious for those with deep thoughts.
Li Zhuiyuan raised his head and looked at Liu Yumei. He did not answer her last question, but asked: "So, is this the reason why Uncle Qin wants to return to his hometown and leave here?"
"Dirty money must be spent somewhere. Either keep your head down and treat yourself as an ordinary person, or wait to be inexplicably pushed out to take the blame.
I know what books you, kid, have been reading these days. You, kid, are very obsessed with the dirty money business. ”
"Grandma Liu, why did you tell me this specifically today?"
"Because you are such a smart kid. Even if you don't have a master to teach you, you can learn things surprisingly quickly just by reading. I'm afraid if I don't remind you, it won't be long before you find a way to give your grandfather's one to you." Broken.”
"But why should I do this?"
"This is not what I need to care about. I only know that your boy may have the ability to do this soon. I have to continue to live here with Ali, but I don't want you to ruin the scenery and atmosphere here. .”
"Can it be broken?"
"Yes." Liu Yumei said with certainty, "No matter how rich you are, money will be useless when you encounter real difficulties. Li Sanjiang's money is just enough to make a show in this small town. This is one of the 1. ”
After a pause, Liu Yumei continued: "The old man is old and has been living according to his own habitual rhythm. If anyone disrupts this rhythm, then the old man himself will also be disrupted. It is possible that he could continue to live a long life, but Ending up with a happy ending, this is the second one.”
"Then I just..."
"Your grandpa is a rare confused among the really confused, but you want to wake him up and force him to straighten him. This is a kind of destruction to his living habits, but you haven't succeeded yet. If When you learn more knowledge, master more abilities, and show a higher level, you can no longer just talk about it, then you can really correct him
So, you know what to do, right?
Old children, old children, old people are just like children, so you should coax them more. Isn't this what you little guy is best at? ”
Li Zhuiyuan covered his face with his hands and rubbed it slowly.
Liu Yumei paid attention to the boy's reaction while sipping her tea. When the boy's hands left his cheeks, what she saw in front of her was another clean, cute face with a childlike smile.
She couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch this face, but there was an obvious conflict between sensibility and rationality at this moment.
"Grandma Liu, where is Brother Runsheng?"
"He has been picking up peanuts since early in the morning. He should be back soon. What are you going to do?"
"I ordered some things and I want Brother Runsheng to accompany me to get them back."
"Then what?"
"Then of course I do what I have to do."
Liu Yumei sat up, approached the boy, and stared into the boy's eyes carefully: "Are you going to continue doing this?"
"What if?"
"Aren't you uncomfortable, aggrieved, and afraid?"
"No, I only know that my grandpa really loves me."
Even though it seemed that he was trying to protect his master from disaster.
But, first of all, this path was chosen by myself; secondly, every time, I took the initiative to show concern for my grandfather and made a voluntary decision, and no one was forcing me.
The most important thing is that the grandfather himself does not understand this. He really cares about his great-grandson.
So what happens if everything is priced and the transaction is completed?
He Li Zhuiyuan was happy.
Li Sanjiang is still Li Sanjiang. Even after knowing these things, Li Zhuiyuan's attitude towards his grandfather has not changed. No, it has changed a little. From now on, he can coax him with peace of mind. Children can coax old children.
Liu Yumei tried hard to observe, trying to see even a little bit of extra emotion on the boy's face, but she failed.
But... how is this possible?
Even between biological parents and children, when it comes to this kind of thing, even if they don't fall out immediately, there will definitely be estrangement.
But the boy in front of him, in an instant, left only a few simple logics, killing all unnecessary emotions.
This is terrible. Does this child have no emotions in his bones?
"There's something Grandma wants to ask you. That time when the paper tie leaked and everything was destroyed in the house, wasn't your grandfather seriously injured? What did he do before that?"
Li Zhuiyuan blinked his big clear eyes and shook the teapot:
"Grandma, drink up all the tea."
"Then make another pot."
"I can't drink anymore, I'm exhausted."
Li Zhuiyuan patted his stomach, stood up, and put away the tea set.
Just at this time, Runsheng came back with a hoe.
"Brother Runsheng, accompany me to the old carpenter's house to pick up some things."
"Okay."
Runsheng walked to the well, fetched a bucket of water and washed his feet, then followed Li Zhuiyuan to the old carpenter's house with a cart.
The old carpenter has been waiting for a long time and everything is ready.
"Sir, my great-grandfather said that he will settle the matter of wages in a while."
"What a shitty salary, old man, I've paid Uncle Sanjiang a profit in advance for his fasting."
"Then you'd better find a notebook and write it down. I'm afraid you'll forget it as time goes by. You'll live a long life."
After speaking, Li Zhuiyuan bowed seriously to the old carpenter.
"Hey, you little boy, where did you learn these tricks? You have a sweet mouth."
The old carpenter took out a red envelope that had been prepared from his pocket and handed it to Li Zhuiyuan: "Here, take it to buy some candies."
"I haven't given you any money, so why do I have the nerve to accept your money?"
"One code, one code. Last time you came unexpectedly. Grandpa, I didn't have time to prepare. It's the first time for this junior to come to the door. You should have given it. This is the rule."
"Thank you, grandpa."
Li Zhuiyuan accepted the red envelope, and Runsheng had already loaded everything into the car.
After returning home, Li Zhuiyuan and Runsheng moved things to the second floor together.
What surprised Li Zhuiyuan was that Ali, who had taken a shower and changed clothes, was waiting in his room.
After the finished items were moved in, she naturally began to assemble them.
"Xiaoyuan, what are these? They look familiar, like the objects in our doorway."
After Runsheng finished moving the things, he squatted near the door. He couldn't get too close to Ali.
"Well, it's just what's in the doorway." Li Zhuiyuan responded, "Brother Runsheng, please go downstairs and watch TV for a while, eat something delicious and have a rest. I'll have to ask you to accompany me out later." .”
"Okay, just call me."
After Runsheng left, Li Zhuiyuan and A Li assembled it together. This was the simplest job and the most rewarding part.
Soon everything was assembled.
Ali intertwined her hands gently, looking at what she and the boy had made together, and then looked up at the desk, where there were still many blank drawings.
"I will continue to draw in the future. When the time comes, I will have to ask Ali to help me do it. I am clumsy and I really can't do it without Ali's help."
The girl's eyes were so bright that they seemed to be hiding stars.
After giving the girl two bottles of Jianlibao and letting her sit and rest, Li Zhuiyuan began to pack up his set of equipment.
There are six artifacts in total, plus four smaller items.
The Luosheng umbrella is completely black. The book says that when opened, it can isolate the miasma.
The Yellow River Shovel has multiple switchable uses. When he first looked at the design drawing, Li Zhuiyuan couldn't help but think of the Luoyang Shovel. However, the two main attack directions are different. The Yellow River Shovel mainly deals with underwater and wet muddy areas near the water.
The seven-star hook, which can be extended to seven sections, is used by corpse fishermen to hook dead bodies from the water. However, each section of it has a special design, which is a metaphor for the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, and can be used to counter the different states of dead bodies.
Next, there are Soul Returning Basket and Homesickness Network. These two plus the seven-star hook above are actually the same thing in Taiye's stuff, but they are completely different from Taiye's set of things.
The master's things can only be used to catch immovable drifters. It is impossible to restrain the real moving ones.
The last piece is the Sanqing Fan, which has a great reputation. Li Zhuiyuan followed the requirements in the book and carved runes on each fan blade, and then added various prepared materials at the bottom of the embedded groove. .
The purpose of this thing is mainly to slap yourself.
When you encounter someone like the cat-faced old lady who is good at deceiving people, you can pat your face or head with a fan, and then open the secret button as needed to release a special powder mist to quickly wake you up from the illusion.
The four small pieces are specially made black dog blood ink clay, black canvas, Bagua plate and a stack of talisman papers drawn by Li Zhuiyuan himself.
There is a sandwich inside the black canvas, which is filled with wooden flower rolls, but each piece of wooden flower rolls has a special texture, which Ali carved out piece by piece with a small carving knife; when dealing with a dead body, you can wrap it You can also try to cover the head of the dead one on your own body. The former can protect against evil spirits, while the latter can kill the dead one. Anyway, that's what the book says.
The Bagua plate was relatively simple. It was made of wood, without any pattern decoration, and was not high-end at all. The needles inside were ground by Li Zhuiyuan himself. He tested them and found they were not accurate.
But it's not very accurate. Li Zhuiyuan just needs to correct it in his own mind.
As for the stack of talisman papers, Li Zhuiyuan was the least confident. It was his first time trying to draw this, and there was a high probability that it would be of no use.
And even if it works, do you still have to run to the dead person, jump up on tiptoes and stick it on the other person's forehead?
Li Zhuiyuan pressed his fingertips on the talisman paper and pulled it outward. The talisman paper floated one meter away, then folded and floated back, then landed on the ground behind Li Zhuiyuan.
This effect is not as good as playing cards.
First test whether the talisman paper you drew has any effect. If it has even a little effect, then next time you will find something similar to the material of playing cards to draw on it.
But no matter what, this set of utensils and small items can be regarded as a complete work.
Next, let’s test their effects.
Li Zhuiyuan went out and asked Runsheng to come back. He wanted to give Runsheng a few things, such as the seven-star hook and the Yellow River shovel. Only those with strong strength can really use them, even if they have no special attachments at all. As a result, Runsheng can also use them to beat him to death.
Ali, who stayed in the room, bent down and picked up the talisman paper on the ground.
Place the talisman paper in the palm of your right hand, press the index finger of your left hand on the talisman paper, and make a stroke with your fingertip.
"Whoosh!"
The talisman flew out and stuck squarely in the center of the door frame.
At this moment, Li Zhuiyuan led Runsheng in. In order to distance herself from Runsheng, Ah Li simply took off her shoes and got on the bed.
The girl hugged her knees and sat on the corner of the bed, watching the boy explain the functions of the appliance to Runsheng.
After listening to the explanation and practicing it himself, Runsheng was shocked and said: "Xiaoyuan, my father also has many of these things, but they only look similar to yours, but there is a big gap."
< br>
"I should be the most professional."
"I can feel it. It's a good thing. It's really a good thing."
Runsheng had experience in fishing for corpses, and had actually fought with the dead. He felt that something that was flattering must be convincing.
"Let's go, Brother Runsheng, let's find a place to test it."
"Okay!"
Putting aside everything else, Brother Bao and Zhao Xing have acted as accomplices and dared to take the initiative to come to threaten you. Then you should go find them and settle the account first.
Runsheng carried the things down first. Before they were assembled, the parts were difficult to handle at once, but now he could carry all the equipment by himself.
Li Zhuiyuan walked to the bedside and said to Ah Li: "I'm going out for a while. Ah Li, be good and go back to the house and have a good sleep. You know?"
After giving instructions, Li Zhuiyuan walked out of the bedroom.
After the boy left, Ali lay down on the bed and began to sleep well as she was told.
When Li Zhuiyuan passed by Li Sanjiang's bedroom, the door happened to open. The master rubbed his eyes and just had a rest. He planned to drink some water before going back to sleep.
"Xiao Yuanhou, are you going out?"
"Well, Master, Brother Runsheng and I went out to play."
"Oh, let's go out and play." Li Sanjiang habitually touched his pocket again. Although he always prioritized his children's learning, he would never have the heart to refuse his children's requests to play.
"Master, you gave me pocket money this morning."
"Then get some more." Li Sanjiang took out the change in his pocket. Generally, people in the village rarely carry large banknotes in their pockets, so it is inconvenient to lose money.
"Master, thank you."
"Hey, why are you so polite?"
Before Li Sanjiang could finish speaking, he found that his waist was being hugged, and the boy's face was pressed against his stomach with his eyes closed.
Li Sanjiang reached out and touched the boy's head, wondering: "What's wrong with you?"
"Master, you are so kind."
"Haha, Cheng Chengcheng, I'll go back to the house and get you some neat ones."
"No, sir, that's enough, I'm going out to play."
"Remember not to come back too late, you have to transfer at night."
"I understand, Master."
After waving goodbye to Li Sanjiang and going down the stairs, Li Zhuiyuan's expression returned to calm.
When he faced Liu Yumei in the morning, he didn't tell lies, because he only needed to know that the master was sincerely good to him, and the rest didn't matter.
To put it bluntly, if I really care about this, what is the essential difference between him and the three brothers and sisters of the Niu family?
Furthermore, there was one thing that Li Zhuiyuan deliberately hid from Liu Yumei.
Grandma Liu lives here and describes herself as someone who picks up coins in nooks and crannies. So wouldn't it be equivalent to a large remittance if the master transfers money to her?
If this old lady knew about this, she would probably die of grief.
People tend to cherish life more as they get older, and they also fear death more and more as they get older.
At such an old age, the grandfather is willing to sacrifice his life for him to have a better life. This alone is enough for Li Zhuiyuan to be willing to do anything for him as a junior.
I was never forced to get involved, I took the initiative every time, so there was no resentment.
When he went down to the last floor of the stairs, Li Zhuiyuan suddenly stopped. He suddenly thought of the "Jinsha Luo Wen Jing" he had seen in his grandfather's bedroom.
At that time, I discovered that every formation diagram my grandfather drew was slightly different from the one in the book.
Therefore, if the master is very good at studying, draws very accurately, and has full effect of the formation, and just transfers it to himself like this, with the blessing that the master is so rich that it can change his destiny... then wouldn't he want to Stretched to pieces?
Cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.
Is that the backlash of good fortune that even the Qin family avoids for fear of provoking?
"Huh... so dangerous."
But thinking about it on the other hand, didn't I also have some good luck with my grandfather? If I hadn't lived here, how could I have discovered so many good books in the basement, and how could I have met Ah Li?
Since becoming familiar with Ah Li, the cold and peeling feeling in my heart has become less and less frequent.
"Misfortune lies where blessings depend, and blessing lies where misfortune lies."
Li Zhuiyuan shook his head. He didn't want to think about these things anymore. He just wanted to be happy and be himself.
When they reached the dam, Runsheng had already ridden his tricycle. All the equipment was placed on the tricycle and covered with plastic sheets.
"Ding ding ding!"
Runsheng fiddled with the car bell. He didn't think there was anything wrong with the thing in his hand before, but now that he saw the good stuff, he felt like a wild boar eager to taste the fine chaff.
Li Zhuiyuan got on the tricycle.
Liu Yumei and Aunt Liu stood at the entrance to Bazi.
"Xiaoyuan, don't blame grandma for talking too much. Grandma just wants to remind you one last time: You have to think clearly. If you go now, you will never be able to look back."
Li Zhuiyuan patted Runsheng on the back:
"Brother Runsheng, let's go, don't look back, ride forward!"
"Okay, sit tight!"
……
"Xiaoyuan, didn't you say you were going to Shigang? Why did you ask me to ride here first?"
"Brother Runsheng, wait for me at the door. I'll go in and find someone."
Li Zhuiyuan got off the third wheel, walked into the police station, made inquiries along the way, and found Tan Yunlong's office.
At this time, Tan Yunlong was taking a nap with his eyes closed, leaning on the office chair. His face was shiny, and he must have stayed up late.
However, when Li Zhuiyuan walked in, he immediately opened his eyes, and the familiar feeling of hawk's gaze came over him again.
"Is it you, kid?"
"Yeah."
"How did you find my office?"
"I asked people."
"Do you know what my name is?"
"I asked where the policeman with the long, thick eyebrows, a little slanted, and a scary glare was, and they all knew."
"Hahahaha..." Tan Yunlong laughed, "Okay, kid, what do you want to see me for?"
"If something happens, I'll report it."
……
As soon as he walked out of the police station door, Li Zhuiyuan turned around again and faced the plaque.
Then, he stretched out his arms, stepped forward, and hugged the plaque tightly.
The window of the guard room was opened, and a police officer from the Senior Citizen Association poked his head out and asked: "Kid, what are you doing?"
"I also want to be a police officer when I grow up."
"Okay, okay, it's good to be a policeman, haha, good boy."
The old police officer said nothing more, lit a cigarette, and watched quietly as the boy continued to hold the plaque.
After hugging him for a long time, Li Zhuiyuan was willing to let go.
You should have had enough, right?
Lowering his head, he saw that his clothes and pants were already covered with a thick layer of plaque dust.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Zhuiyuan decided not to pat them off but to keep them.
Then he got on Runsheng's tricycle.
Lao Jiang's house is easy to find. It is a self-built villa on the edge of town. It has five floors and a large walled yard outside, with a pond and rockery inside.
In this era, it can be called quite luxurious.
Runsheng picked up the Yellow River shovel and said: "Xiaoyuan, come on, let's fight in!"
Li Zhuiyuan looked at Runsheng with some doubts. Seeing that he was not joking, he quickly reached out and grabbed Runsheng's wrist:
"No, Brother Runsheng, it's like eating at a banquet. We don't sit in the first batch, we wait for the second batch, because what we have to deal with is not people."
"Then who will take the lead, and who will deal with those people?"
As soon as the words fell,
Far away,
A siren sounded.
