Chapter 18: Things are different, everything is over.
I nodded and said, "I don't need Mr. Earth to explain this, I'll be there."
"That's good." Mr. Earth said, "Then I'll see you in seven days."
Saying that, Mr. Earth floated away, and I shouted at his back, "Mr. Earth, how am I going to return your earth puppet by then?"
Mr. Earth said without looking back, "Don't worry, at that time, I will find you. You don't know where I am, but I can know where you are. Also, that baby is not called an earth puppet, it is an earth spirit puppet. Don't underestimate it, or it will get angry."
"Yes, yes." I hurriedly changed my words, "It's Baby Earth Spirit Puppet, Earth Spirit Puppet."
When I looked again, Mr. Earth's silhouette had already disappeared.
"What a tall man." Dad said to us with great emotion, "You say we must have cultivated how much Yin virtue in our past lives to have accumulated so much blessings in this life. Use with a childhood accident, no head when met the divine calculation Mr. Chen, and now you accident, Mr. Chen is no longer, and met Mr. Tu, each are not seeking return good people."
"Yeah, so it's better to do more good deeds in the future." Mom also lamented twice.
My heart, however, had mixed feelings, did I accumulate virtue in my past life or did I do something bad? If the accumulation of virtue, how this life I was first Liu Wei claimed life, and then dad was wheat machine strangled arm, mom fell into the water almost drowned; to say is to do bad things, this life is on the other hand, there is no danger, the great difficulty not to die,...... think about it is also really call people can not say clearly.
"Use with ......" I am rambling, my father shouted me a few times, said: "Your mother's body is weak, I first take her back to rest, you just go to visit Mr. Chen yourself, and so on your mother's physical rehabilitation, we come back to his grave to properly offer a few joss sticks and burn some more paper money."
"Good!" I responded.
Mom, however, was startled and stared at Dad, "What did you just say? Burning incense on old Mr. Chen's grave? He's gone?"
"The earth gentleman just said that old Mr. Chen has passed away." I said sadly, "Fourteen years ago, Old Mr. Chen also projected his own life expectancy, and at that time, he said he only had ten years left to live. For such a long time, we haven't come to see his old man, alas ......"
I could no longer speak.
Mom's tears are out, said: "Such a good gentleman, such a great ability, how to say no on no, he gave to use to use to remove the evil thing is still in front of the eye, just like yesterday just happened like. And this spirit stone, as if it had only been worn around the neck for a few days."
"Stop it." Dad's eyes were red and he said, "Let Yuyu go first, we'll come back when you're better. Yuyu, after you pay your respects to Old Mr. Chen, go and see your Uncle Chen Hongde, without him, we wouldn't be able to see Old Mr. Chen."
"I know, you guys go back, let my mom rest." I let my dad have the tricycle, and walked towards Chen Village myself.
A few miles is not too far for me who often walks.
Mom's body is also considered to be no longer in serious trouble, and with nothing to worry about, I threw off my steps and drove forward, and in a short time, I arrived at the entrance of Chenjia Village.
The entrance to the village is a straight east-west asphalt road wide avenue, about half a mile straight north, there are pectinally scaled tiled houses appear, that is, the residents of the Chen family village.
Fourteen years ago, my father and mother and I came to Chenjia Village, the village neat, clean, houses are decent, the streets and alleys are bustling, villagers are glowing, like living in the fairy countryside characters.
This time again, the village seems to have changed its appearance, although still neat, clean, decent houses, people also come and go, but I do not know how, it feels like something less, but specifically about what is missing, I can not say, walked all the way until almost to the door of Mr. Chen Hansheng's home, I just vaguely remembered, it should be less essence.
This village, seems to have no soul.
I inexplicably more sadness, walked to the door of Mr. Chen Hansheng's house ready to knock on the door, but ate a shock, the door on the iron ring on the set of a large lock, locks have been hidden rust, apparently a long time have not been moved look.
Then look at the surrounding courtyard wall, mottled, almost a layer of brick skin.
Has it been a long time since anyone has lived here?
Could it be that Mr. Tu was really right, that Chen Hansheng had passed away and Zeng Zi'e had disappeared?
What about Chen Hongde?
Didn't Chen Hongde live here too? Where did he go?
I took another look at the west courtyard, the small gatehouse there was also incredibly desolate, it didn't even look like a sign of someone living there.
I lingered outside the gate for quite a while, and I really couldn't tell what I felt in my heart.
After a few more moments, I decided to look out into the courtyard.
I walked around the wall, found a stack of bricks, climbed up, grasped the wall, was about to poke my head into the yard, not to guard against a pain in the shoulder, as if there was something sharp stuck in the same, I screamed "Ow", but also just screamed, a strong force to move me back down.
"Snap!"
I fell down from the brick stacks, a serious backward eight fork fall my seven meat, half a day did not slow down the energy.
I was struggling to get up to see what was going on, when a face had come up to me, staring at me from top to bottom, with two ferocious rays emanating from his eyes, saying, "Who are you? What do you want?"
I hurriedly climbed up and asked in return, "Who are you? What do you want? Did you drag me down?"
That person's body is not very tall, but very solid, a national character face with thick eyebrows and eyes, two pieces of lips red and thick, two eight beard majestic and angry, looks righteous, evil does not invade.
This appearance makes me instantly forget the hatred that he just wrestled me, but I have a good feeling about him, he is obviously completely uninterested in me, his eyes are still flashing fierce and stern light, bayonet-like stabbed at me, said: "Ask you again, who are you? What do you want to do here?"
"I'm Wu Yu, someone from the Wu Family Village right around here." I felt that if I didn't tell the truth again, there was a real possibility that I would be beaten up by him, so with the mentality of being a good man but not a good man, I hastened to report myself and gave an honest account, "I was saved by old Mr. Chen Hansheng before, and this time I came here because I wanted to take a look at his old man, but when I saw that the door of his house was locked, and that there was also no sign of Uncle Chen Hongde, so I wanted to take a look at the yard, and I didn't have any other intentions. ."
"You are Wu Yu?" The man's face instantly looked much better after hearing me out.
I was surprised, "You know me?"
"The old patriarch saved Wu Yu's life fourteen years ago, I know." The man said, "But whether you are Wu Yu or not depends on the token, take out the token that the old patriarch gave you fourteen years ago and take a look."
"Relic?" I was surprised, "What token?"
"It's the token that the old patriarch handed over to you after he saved you!"
"No, my dad and mom have it, but I don't have it." I said as if I couldn't figure it out, "My dad and mom have a spirit stone, but I don't have anything."
"Impossible!" That person said, "If you don't have it, it's a fake!"
"There really isn't!" I really felt baffled.
"Think harder!" The man said impatiently, "If there really isn't one, then it's an outlaw who came here under the guise of Wu Yi, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Uncle, there really isn't one, you remembered it wrong, right?" I was on the verge of tears, saying, "Who the hell are you? Who told you that I have Old Mr. Chen's token? What is that token for?"
"Old Mr. Chen told me himself during his lifetime!" The man sneered, split his hand and grabbed my neck, I didn't even see how his hand moved, my neck was violently tightened, as if an iron vice had clamped down on my throat, it was tight, hard, painful and uncomfortable, and tears instantly flowed out.
"Say! Who sent you here? Why did you impersonate Wu? What exactly is the purpose?" His hand pushed a little bit harder, and I felt like my neck was about to break, my breathing was getting worse and worse.
I really can't answer these questions, I am the real Wu Yi, no one sent me, the purpose is to see old Mr. Chen, but he insisted on saying that there is some kind of token, where am I going to get it?
"Say it or not?" He added another point of force, I can't breathe at all, my eyes gradually turned black, I can't lift any strength in my body, my intuition tells me that the next moment, I will definitely faint to death.
