Early in the morning on the sixth day, I took Lin Mei and the certificate from the village to register for household registration. I brought Lin Mei with me because I needed to take photos when applying for an ID card. In addition, I also wanted Lin Mei to see some new things. She hadn’t sat down yet.

I passed the car and didn't take any pictures.

When she first got on the bus, Lin Mei was very nervous and insisted on taking a seat by the window and opening the window. I asked her quietly why, and she said she was afraid that the big iron cage would roll too fast and fall into the river. She could open the window at any time.

Jump out...

Fortunately, she got used to it after driving for a few kilometers, and began to marvel at how fast and convenient it was to ride in the car. She also knew that her ignorance would make people laugh, so she whispered into my ear whatever she had in mind, so outsiders wouldn’t know.

, looking at us, they thought we were a newly married couple.

When she arrived in the village, she happened to meet the market. The crowds were surging and the noise was unusual. She was frightened. In the village, she already felt that there were too many people and didn't want to go out. When she got here, it was a sea of ​​people! However, she has a strong adaptability and soon

After she relaxed, she began to look curiously at things she had never seen before, and I quietly told her the name and function of the product.

I bought Lin Mei candied haws, sesame seed cakes, fried dough sticks and other snacks until we couldn't take any more. Lin Mei had a smile of surprise and happiness on her face. I guess she had never been so happy in her life, even before she was six years old.

, life in Shechang Valley is also very difficult.

After we had a good time shopping, we went to apply for household registration. Unexpectedly, it was more troublesome than I thought. The middle-aged woman working at the window had a stern face as if her mother had just died. She refused to apply for the household registration even though she had a certificate from the village committee, saying

It doesn't comply with the regulations, it's unreasonable, it violates the national family planning policy, and so on. In short, it just doesn't work.

It seemed that he was desperate for money, so I could only hand him a thick red envelope. Unexpectedly, the middle-aged woman not only refused to accept it, but instead scolded me for being morally corrupt and openly bribing me...

Hearing the word "public", I suddenly realized that red envelopes are necessary, but they cannot be received publicly. However, there are several people working in the office, so where can I stuff them privately? Now that we are at odds, I don't think I can give them to her privately.

I know how to accept it, but it seems I can only find someone else to come forward.

After thinking about it for a long time, I remembered that a middle school classmate worked as a publicity officer in a township government. I called and asked, but he had already gone to sea... I became depressed. A living person is not a human being, but must have a household registration and identity.

Do you need a certificate to be considered a person? Forget it, I'd better go home and ask my grandma to ask a relative to handle it. I'm not familiar with people, so I really can't handle it.

I took Lin Mei to the market again, and bought some nylon ropes, pulleys, iron buckles, small picks, etc. I planned to go up to Yunding Mountain in a few days and go deep into the cave to find the whereabouts of Master Zeng. This is

My most important thing.

The relic was only the size of a little finger and could easily be lost, so I asked a gold and silver craftsman to set it on a silver necklace and put it on Lin Mei's chest. She also liked it very much.

We returned home happily in the evening. As soon as we walked in, my mother said: "Amin, four strangers came to see you this afternoon. I told you that you went to the market, but they left without waiting for you."

I was a little surprised and quickly asked: "What do they look like?"

"One is an old man with a long beard, very energetic, with thick eyebrows; one is in his thirties, very strong, like a calf; and the other is a Taoist priest..."

"It's Lu Chengshan and the others!" I was surprised. I didn't expect Lu Chengshan to come down from the mountain after staying in Shechang Valley for so many years and come to see me.

Yunding Mountain occupies a very large area, and its remaining veins stretch for hundreds of miles. It is at the junction of the two provinces and can be reached from many directions. The village I am in is not a must-pass. According to my guess, Lu Chengshan only knew that I was here before.

He didn't pay attention to which village I lived in, so he didn't pass by here when he went up the mountain, and he didn't drop in to visit me on the way. Now when he came down from the mountain, he came here specifically to visit, fearing that the visitor was unkind and might suspect that I had taken the treasure.

I had an ominous premonition in my heart, but I didn't say it out loud to avoid making a fuss to my mother and Lin Mei. I tried hard not to seek revenge on Lu Chengshan, but I was already worried. Since ancient times, people have not fought against officials, so I couldn't beat Lu Chengshan.

Mountains of.

…

On the seventh day, which is the day when the marriage divination is most likely to come true, I feel a little uneasy. I don’t want any daredevil to come to me as a matchmaker! As long as I survive this day, it will prove that Master’s divination is inaccurate.

Destiny can be changed. I will tell Lin Mei the real situation and let Lin Mei make the choice. I believe Lin Mei will not dislike me because I may be short-lived.

My mood is very contradictory. If the hexagram is not accurate, it means that what I am trying to learn now is not reliable enough, and I will lose the spiritual support to continue working hard and find Master Zeng; if the hexagram is accurate, I will not be able to be with Lin Mei.

Together, and I can only live for five more years, how cruel this is!

On this day, Lin Mei and I still got up early in the morning to practice martial arts. Then I carried water, chopped firewood, Lin Mei swept the floor, washed vegetables, and assisted my mother in cooking. After dinner, I went to listen to the master's lectures and study the techniques, while Lin Mei washed the dishes.

Feeding chickens and ducks, studying textbooks... everything is so harmonious, ordinary and beautiful. I hope to live like this every day.

Xiaoxue has also been very quiet these days. She was in a low mood and did not talk to me much, nor did she interfere in the affairs between Lin Mei and me.

Nothing unusual happened until lunch. After eating, I became even more nervous and almost wanted to close the door. But I also knew that I couldn't stop what was coming, and closing the door would be useless, so I didn't do that.

Childish thing, just silently praying in my heart that no one will come.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, several children from the village brought a person into the door of my house. After seeing this person clearly, I was stunned. I felt light-headed, my ears were buzzing, and I could hardly stand or sit still.

Fall to the ground.

The man stared at me and was stunned. After a while, he smiled and said, "So you are really well!"

The visitor turned out to be Secretary Chen’s daughter, Chen Xing, who had had physical contact with me and almost became a real couple!

After not seeing each other for three years, she has grown a little taller and plumper, a little less innocent and youthful, a little more elegant and reserved, but she is still as young, healthy and energetic, and her eyes are still as bright as stars.

, so that I recognized it at a glance.

"You...you, why did you come here?" I found that my throat was dry and my voice was trembling, not because of excitement, but because of fear. She had not come earlier or later, why did she come at this time?

Chen Xing's eye circles were a little red: "I, I have been looking for you for three years!"

I felt my eyes go dark for a while. After searching for three years, I just found it today. What a coincidence!

I immediately thought, could it be Xiaoxue who prevented me from being paired with Lin Mei? It also knew about my master's fortune telling, so it deliberately called Chen Xing here?

Xiaoxue immediately screamed aggrievedly in my mind: "It's none of my business. I can't leave your body. How can I notify her to come?"

My mother and Lin Mei heard the voice and ran out of the room. They stared at Chen Xing in surprise, not knowing what happened.

Chen Xing just looked at me, ignoring others, and said affectionately: "You were taken away by those people. I asked my dad to find you, but he came back and told me that you had become a vegetable and he was not allowed to find you. I

I went behind my father’s back and looked for it myself, but I only knew you were in this township, not which village. I went to the Education Bureau to inquire, but there was no mention of your name at all. I asked many schools but there was no news. I could only hide it during the summer vacation every year.

As my family members go out to look for it, I think I will search each village one by one, and I will definitely find them..."

As he spoke, Chen Xing burst into tears and was very excited. Xiaoxue took a long breath: "Fortunately, I almost killed a good man unjustly!"

My mouth was full of bitterness and I tried my best to pretend to be calm: "You already know that I have become a vegetable, why are you still looking for me?"

"I..." Chen Xing was stunned for a moment, as if she had not thought about this question in depth, "I don't know, I just want to find you, maybe I can do something for you? Anyway, I can't say goodbye to you.

This is the end. Of course, I also believe that you will get better, and you did!"

My mother couldn't help but ask: "Who is this girl? What's going on?"

Chen Xing hesitated to speak, glanced at me, then his eyes fell on Lin Mei, and asked uneasily: "You are not married, are you?"

If I were cruel enough and lied to her that she was married, I could have deceived her away. But I am not that kind of person. I once felt a little guilty towards Chen Xing. Chen Xing came to me and waited for me for three years. I can't ignore the friendship. What's more,

The important thing is that Chen Xing happened to appear at the time predicted by the marriage divination, so Chen Xing is my destined wife! This is the guidance of the Guigu Patriarch and the gods of heaven and earth, and it is also the arrangement of the mysterious and mysterious Tao in the universe. I dare not violate it.

Nor can it be violated.

Since the incident of lightning striking the camphor tree, I believe that there is God’s will in the dark, and God’s will cannot be violated. If it is only my own business, I dare to resist everything, act against nature, and challenge fate. There is nothing I dare not do.

.But this is not my business alone. My marriage is directly related to the future of Lin Mei, Chen Xing and my mother, and is also indirectly related to the future of more relatives. My actions against nature may cause many people to suffer...

Since the hexagram is accurate, then I only have five years left, so I can't harm Lin Mei. If Chen Xing doesn't care that I can only live for five years, I can marry Chen Xing so that my mother can rely on and have hope.

Of course, if Chen Xing refuses to marry me, who is short-lived, then I will have nothing to do with Chen Xing in the future, and it will not be considered a violation of God's will...

My heart was in chaos. Although Lin Mei didn't know what happened, but with a woman's intuition, she realized that there was a "threat", and her face showed some kind of loss and sadness.

The four of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Finally, I said, "This matter is a bit complicated. I want to talk to each of you individually."

My mother had seen some signs and guessed that my former girlfriend came to the door. It was difficult to talk to her face to face, so she turned around and went into the kitchen. Lin Mei followed her into the kitchen and quickly brought out a glass of water for Chen Xing.

, she learned quickly, and she had to serve tea and water when a guest came, even if the guest was a potential threat to her.

Chen Xing took the boiled water and said thank you, but his expression was a little awkward, because Lin Mei's behavior showed that Lin Mei was the host and she was the guest. She fell behind in the first round.
