Chapter 7: The Goddess Recommends a Man, the Gambler Leads the Way
It wasn't until the next morning that we rushed home with fear and trepidation, along with the townspeople who had taken us in for the night, and along the way, other villagers heard about it and followed us to see what was going on.
Zhang's wife was lying at the front door of our house, covered in urine and feces, motionless, straight, rolling her eyes, as if she were dead.
The villagers watched for a while, and finally some of them boldly went forward, put their hands on Zhang's wife's nose, tried, and then said, "There's still air! Not dead yet!"
Dad and mom were relieved.
If Mrs. Zhang had died, there would have been a lot of trouble. Although we didn't kill her, we couldn't say why, and even if we could, not many people would believe us, especially the public family.
"Throw pots of water on her!" Someone suggested.
Someone soon brought over a large bucket of water and threw it over Zhang's wife.
This bucket of water went down, and a moment later, Zhang's wife moved, she first blinked, then slowly squirmed, raised her head, and with a "vomit" sound, spat out a large mouthful of filth, disgusting the crowd of onlookers who all backed away.
"I can t ...... anymore."
Sister-in-law Zhang waved her hand breathlessly and said, "This ghost's Taoism is too high, I can't fight him. Old Wu, you'd better hire an expert, I'll return this fifty dollars to you."
Saying that, Zhang's sister-in-law touched out the fifty dollars from her body, her hands were also covered with shit and urine, after she took the money out, the money was also stained with shit and urine, Dad was going to take it, but when he saw the situation, he blackened his face and said, "Don't take the money! You don't have the credit, but you also have the hard work, this is considered your hard earned money."
Sister-in-law Zhang nodded and said, "Thank you big brother, you still have a conscience. How about this, I'll recommend a capable person to you, let him come, he'll work."
"Who is it? Hit or miss?" Dad didn't trust Mrs. Zhang's words.
"Three or four miles to the east, in Chenjia Village on the edge of the Ying Water, there's an old patriarch in the village called Chen Hansheng, that's him!" As soon as Zhang's sister-in-law mentioned the name Chen Hansheng, it was as if she instantly regained her strength and spirit, saying, "He's the head of the Ma Yi Chen family, do you know the Ma Yi Chen family? The most powerful family of physiognomy under the sky! Elder Chen Hansheng Chen's nickname is 'Divine Phase Chen', and some people also call him 'Divine Calculator Chen'! If you ask around, who doesn't know his reputation? He is an expert in reading faces, reading words, and observing the wind and water, and he is one in a million! He's a master of exorcism, ghost hunting, and monsters! If you say he can't do it, there's no one who can. If he can't manage your family's affairs even if he comes, then you should prepare for the aftermath!"
"The Divine Calculator Chen hits!"
"God Calculator Chen, great!"
"That piece of land on Ten People's Slope is a bad feng shui site, and he's told the higher-ups about it, but no one believes him and won't change it!"
"Old Wu, go find him!"
"......"
The villagers all yelled, and it seemed that everyone had immense respect and trust in this famous divine calculator Chen Chen Hansheng.
Dad hesitated, "Then go find someone to call him over?"
"Little Wu you're confused!" The village's respected Master Wu glared at Dad, "Such a capable person, you go to invite may not necessarily come, and still looking for someone to call him? You take Yuanyuan and go to Chenjia Village yourself!"
"Oh." Dad made a sudden realization.
Master Wu glared at Sister-in-Law Zhang again and said, "We shouldn't have looked for her in the first place, she can't even compare to the fingernail cap on the head of someone else's Divine Calculator Chen's little thumb!"
Sister-in-law Zhang was silent.
Dad pulled my mom and I ready to go, but suddenly remembered something like stopping again, looking back at the crowd, mumbling for half a day, but did not say anything.
The first thing that you should know is that you're not going to be able to do anything about it.
I'm not sure if you're going to be able to get a good deal on a new product, but I'm sure you're going to be able to get a good deal on a new product.
Wu moncler outlet online said, "How much do you want?"
"I want ...... a hundred it." Dad thought about it and said.
moncler outlet store Wu was surprised, "Why do you need so much?"
Dad said, "Please god counting Chen at least this price, right?"
"Forget it, you!" Mr. Wu said, "I thought you were going to do something, but I don't want to pay for it! Give or not, give more or less is the intention, the poor would have no money, the rich naturally will not give less, they do not care about you this."
"Ah?" Dad froze for a moment.
"Why don't you hurry up and go!" Grandpa Wu urged again.
"Oh, oh." Dad pulled Mom and I along this time.
We also can not care about eating breakfast, a night without a good night's sleep does not feel sleepy, Chenjia Village is the largest village within a radius of dozens of miles from us, the villagers have nearly ten thousand people, only the Chen family name population of five or six thousand, the village is not too far away from us, over a hillock, a total of three or four miles only.
Yingshui from their village next to flow through, a large road from the highway entrance straight into the village, the north-south avenue is unusually spacious, at a glance, is invisible tiled houses pectinately, and neat and clean, do not know how many times more than our village style.
I don't know if it's an illusion or what, since the three of us parents entered the Chen family village, although we didn't see anyone, but I always feel that there are many pairs of eyes staring at me in the dark, but when I look back, I don't find anything.
I had to pretend that I was just a scared bird and suspicious.
As I walked and looked, I saw that in front of every house in the village stood a stone, on which were engraved three big characters in bright red: "Shi Dangdang".
Each doorway is also embedded in a mirror, bright, facing the sun, dazzling.
Others have copper bells hanging on the eaves, and when the wind blows, it makes a clear sound of "Lingling", which is very pleasing to the ear.
My mood was also much better.
Mom pulled the father's arm, said: "his father, you see others here, is different from our village, it is rumored that they are here every family can read the face, randomly pull out a child is a capable person. I don't know why, but when I walk here, I feel solid."
Dad said, "It's better to hurry up and find someone to ask Divine Calculator Chen where he lives."
As soon as dad's words fell, I saw a man slipping out of the nooks and crannies behind a sliver of houses with a wobble, humming a little tune in his mouth and fiddling with a deck of cards in his hand, looking dangly.
Approached, only to hear his mouth humming: "Winning money, winning money, the old man's hand is really not bad ......."
This person is very tall, single eyelid, center parted head, age seems to be thirty years old, wearing clothes is very neat, a pair of leather shoes also polished.
In my eyes, people who can afford to wear leather shoes are usually big shots, at least, my dad can't afford to wear them. But this man was obviously a gambler.
Dad saw him, hurriedly ran over, shouted: "Big brother!"
"Who are you calling big brother?" The man looked at my dad and said, "Do you recognize me?"
"No." My dad smiled with him and said, "I'm from an outside village, and I'm asking you about someone." Saying that, my father from his pocket to touch out a box of cigarettes, would have liked to smoke a hand to the man, may be feeling not quite enough, the whole box of cigarettes are handed up.
The man looked, did not pick up, may be too bad cigarettes, but also, 50 cents a box of "old yellow leather", wearing leather shoes, how would people look at it.
"Who are you looking for?" The man casually asked, and then glanced toward my mother and I. When his eyes fell on me, his small, single-lidded eyes suddenly widened, and his flowing expression became unusually grave!
"This boy is not right!" He violently took a big step towards me, cupped my chin and raised my face up, and with just one look, said, "It seems to have hit something powerful, the Tian Ting, Zhong Zheng, and Shan Roots are all blackened, and there are already signs of loss of soul, I'm afraid that in just seven days, this child will be lifeless!"
Dad, mom and I were all shocked by his sudden "attack", but after hearing his words, we were all shocked again, I was still able to hold on, but my mom burst into tears: "Master, you are a capable person! You save my child, he is only six years old ah!"
"I can't, the thing your child encountered is too powerful, I can't save him with my half-baked skills." The man shook his head.
My dad went up and took out ten dollars from his pocket, and died and stuffed it into the man's hand, saying in his mouth, "A little bit of small meaning, no honor, you first accept it, you first accept it ......"
"Well, also this rule, break the money to avoid disaster." The man did take the money, said, "You guys come with me, I'll take you to see the person you want to see."
We all froze again, and Dad said, "You know who we're looking for?"
"Who else? The Divine Calculator Chen." The man left first.
Our family of three looked at each other in disbelief, and then hurriedly followed, my father said, "You're really a god, without even asking, you know who we're looking for."
"Nonsense." The man spoke nonchalantly, said: "Our village on his reputation is the biggest, you this thing in his place is also a piece of cake, you do not look for him to find who?"
"Then do you think his old man will care about us?" My dad asked cautiously.
"Don't worry, with me here, he will definitely care." The man said with a big grin.
