Chapter 114 The Second Master’s Regret(1/2)
"It's getting late, come out quickly..."
At this time, in the north of the village, the second master was anxiously circling. After waiting for a long time, no one was seen pulling the straw rope. Finally, he couldn't help it and rushed over.
The people around were still hesitating. After all, they had made an appointment in advance to have someone inside pull the rope before pulling it outside. However, the second master said anxiously: "This Juehu village is only so big in total. It's time to cross it. It must be out."
Something, right?"
As he said that, he pulled hard, but he didn't expect that the more he pulled, the looser it became. Only the end of the rope was pulled out.
Whether it was Lao Yangpi, the clan leader, or Zhou Datong and his neighbors who were following him, they were all stunned.
"My old lady..."
The second master groaned, his body trembled, he tore his coat violently, shouted and rushed towards Juehu Village.
"I'll go find him!"
"..."
"Just stay still, dick..."
Lao Yangpi hurriedly stopped the second master and shouted: "With your ideas and skills, how dare you break into Juehu Village?"
"You blew out the old stove too..."
"..."
"I have to look for it even if it's destroyed..."
The second master was so anxious that his eyes were wet, and he shouted loudly: "If something happens to little Hu Ma, how can I have the nerve to explain to my mother-in-law?"
"Leave me alone, you don't have to bury me in the old fire pit if you die..."
"..."
As he spoke, he strode into the village with great strides, and no one from the two villages could hold him back.
But at this moment, a voice said: "What is dead and alive?"
Everyone hurriedly turned their heads, only to see Hu Ma in good condition, coming back from the side road. They were surprised and happy, and hurriedly went up to meet him. They looked around and saw that it was really him. They were surprised and happy: "You
You entered here, how did you come back from there?"
"be lost."
Hu Ma said: "He came back after a long detour."
The people next to me were stunned when they heard this: "Are you going to a ghost village with someone who got lost?"
But when they saw that the flax came back safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and the old patriarch also took the opportunity to put a cotton-padded jacket on the second master.
Only the old man Yangpi, who had seen too many evil spirits in this deserted village, was still wary in his heart. He secretly squeezed Hu Ma's palm. Hu Ma knew what he was thinking and deliberately took away the anger in his hand. With this squeeze,
It felt bitingly cold, not like a living person.
"Ah yo..."
Old Sheepskin's face turned green with fright, and he staggered back, but Hu Ma stretched out his hand to hold him, and said with a smile: "Be careful."
At this time, the vitality returned, the palms were warm, and the old sheepskin man was stunned for a moment.
Then I suddenly realized that this kid was playing tricks on me, and I felt a little relieved: "It's okay, it's okay..."
"How can you be so naughty?"
"..."
"There was a slight situation, but we got out smoothly."
Hu Ma then explained to everyone: "I haven't learned my skills yet. If I want to solve the problem here, it would be a lie. However, at least I understand what the situation is. I will make more preparations later and see if I can
Can't find a way."
"That's that's..."
The second master said hurriedly: "My mother-in-law said earlier that we should seal off the village first to eliminate ten years of grievances. This is only seven or eight years old."
"It's still early. If the sheepherder wasn't impatient, why would he need to take this risk?"
"..."
Just now, I was worried that the two villages would start fighting, and one of them would be Lao Yangpi. But because of this false alarm, the second master didn't care anymore, and just exposed Lao Yangpi's background.
But Lao Yangpi is not following the right path. The sheepherder has become a great man, but he has no disciples. He originally didn’t like others saying that, but now he feels very guilty. He said softly: "My son, what you said is right, we are being petty."
.”
"I should have known that the grandson of a ghost mother-in-law would be fine..."
"..."
This sentence can be regarded as finalizing the matter this time.
The most prominent figure in Mang Village has to apologize to a little kid. From now on, people in Mang Village will have to respect Hu Ma when they see him.
The old patriarch smiled and rolled his eyes, then said: "Stop wrangling here, it's almost dark."
"Xiao Huma's godmother hasn't even tasted the incense yet. I've never seen someone who was halfway through the sacrifice and ran out to do other things first."
"..."
"Yeah……"
Old Mr. Yangpi also said hurriedly: "Your godmother taking in a godson like you is not a matter for any particular family, but a big deal for our neighbors."
"Let's go and kowtow to each other."
"..."
"It's done..."
The words were spoken so smoothly that even the second master and the old patriarch were surprised. Looking at this old man in sheep's clothing, they secretly thought, is he climbing up the pole?
This is an underestimation of the shepherd. He had this intention from the beginning, right?
I just rushed up to kowtow without being embarrassed, and also to see if the grandson of my mother-in-law's family is a person who accepts old scores...
However, Liu Erniang said that she was just chasing ducks and didn't understand anything about the situation. When she saw these people leaving, she thought her troubles were over.
Suddenly, I saw the people coming back again, and there were more people than at noon. As soon as they came over, they kowtowed and burned incense. It had never seen such a big formation. It was trembling and there were only a few pitiful branches.
Shivering.
Anyway, after the group of people finished the sacrifice, they made an appointment to go to Dayangzhai for a drink and ignored him.
But the second master took advantage of others' unpreparedness and came over quietly when he was leaving. He picked up a red rope and tied it to it. The last time it was tied, it was just a red thread, but this time it was as thick as a finger.
This was because Liu Erniang was afraid that she would be frightened, so she ran away quietly.
She couldn't run away. This time, it was just a start. When the children were about to become more successful, she would have to be there when they were actually offering sacrifices to Linzi, Taisui, and even Laoyinshan...
At night, flowing water mats were set up in the village to entertain the villagers from Mang Village.
For the poor people in the village, this is really a luxury. They only have a few limited banquets throughout the year. During the Chinese New Year or when there are weddings and funerals, this year there is one banquet after another.
, even the patriarch’s daughter-in-law felt distressed.
It would be great if we let Datong and the others take these food and drinks to the city after the New Year, but they will fill up the holes you have.
"The women you married from Mang Village are just petty."
When the old patriarch saw his daughter-in-law losing face, he laughed and scolded her: "It's not good for Yin to eat Mao grain."
"But it also depends on what kind of progress this year will bring."
"You know what? Let's see what we eat now. We'll be back in less than a year..."
"..."
"..."
"What does it mean that something is left in the stone box?"
And Hu Ma is actually a little tired of this kind of banquet.
Now I am dealing with this bustle, but in my heart I am thinking about the tree stump I met at the end of the village, and what he said.
That tree stump was called an "acquaintance" by her mother-in-law, and she had to bow politely when she saw him for the first time. He specifically looked for me and said those few pleasant words. What was the meaning of that person?
He is the grandson of his mother-in-law, but he is not yet a descendant of the Hu family...
...Is it possible that the descendants of the Hu family value their ability rather than their bloodline?
But I vaguely felt that the things my mother-in-law faced were far more complicated than I thought, and there were more arrangements than I imagined.
Just like the incident in Juehu Village, from the perspective of the surrounding villages, the mother-in-law passed away suddenly, so leaving such an issue behind without time to solve it made me feel scared.
But as soon as Hu Ma heard about it, she realized that it was not that simple.
Because the mother-in-law did not die suddenly at all, she just returned to her ancestral temple, and the time was still her own. With her kind-hearted character, if the hidden dangers in this village are really that big, she will definitely solve them in advance, at least
There will also be methods left.
It shouldn't have been left behind, but it happened to be left behind. It can only be said that it was left to myself.
To be continued...
