Hearing the reply from outside the door, my face turned pale with fright.
At two o'clock in the middle of the night, if it were you and you heard a deceased person speaking, how would you feel?
I nervously grabbed Brother Yu and said, "Don't drive! There's something wrong."
The courtyard was dimly lit, and a gust of wind blew, causing the branches to sway slightly.
Through the iron door of the guest house, after a minute or two, I heard another voice from outside the door: "It's me! Come out and have a look! I am really your guide, Lao Fu!"
"Nonsense! The old Fu we knew has died a long time ago!" ??
"I'm not dead. Come out and take a look."
I was stunned for a few seconds, and finally I couldn't hold back my curiosity, so I crept over, peeked out through the crack in the door carefully.
I saw a man standing at the door with a flashlight.
This man was wearing a dark down jacket and was holding a plastic basket in his hand. Although there was a hideous scar on his left face, he could still identify him as Lao Fu!
I opened the door and opened it fiercely, "Uncle Fu! You! It's really you! You're not dead!"
"Haha, you are finally willing to open the door for me. I have been freezing outside for more than half an hour."
Lao Fu flashed in. He put down the basket, rubbed his hands back and forth, and said with a smile, "It took me a long time to find out that you might live here. Yes, I didn't die. I happened to be passed by a man in the mountains."
I was saved by a herb collector, and I really had one foot in the door of hell."
Lao Fu's sudden late-night visit was so unexpected to me! It was completely unexpected! I didn't expect it at all!
Back in the mountains, he was so injured by a bear that we really couldn't take him away.
Unforgettable, he asked me to carry his head under a tree to wait for death. Before leaving, Lao Fu also stuffed me with the wooden box of the mechanism.
When Baotou saw the living Lao Fu standing in front of him, you could tell by looking at Baotou's expression that he felt incredible.
After chatting in the courtyard for a few minutes, we turned our heads and went inside to talk.
"Uncle Fu, your face"
Lao Fu sighed, he opened his collar, and we saw a large and shocking scar.
He took a breath and said, "Brother Fu, you are so lucky. Don't blame us. The reason why I kept you here was because you had no choice. How did you find us?"
Laofu After tidying up his clothes, he said, "It's a long story. I've been looking for you for more than half a month. A few days ago, I accidentally heard about you from Lao Guo."
"The main reason why I came to you this time is that I want to get back my two things."
"What do you want?" asked the head.
Lao Fu said, "The shotgun, that gun was passed down to me by my grandfather, so I want to get it back, as well as the piece of Gabala that belongs to Master Erdrup Rinpoche."
Upon hearing this, I quickly explained, "I'm sorry, Uncle Fu, I still have the Ajna in my hand, but we accidentally lost your ancestral shotgun in the mountains and couldn't find it later."
I had actually thrown away his shotgun a long time ago, because it was useless after the bullets were fired. Now, the shotgun was old and broken, and its performance was very poor.
"The gun is gone?"
I nodded.
"Well, it seems it's all fate, forget it."
Lao Fu sighed and said, just give me Gabala. I borrowed the eyebrow bone from the temple to deal with the curse of July Crane.
Return it to the temple.”
The head suddenly asked, "Brother Fu, you were not involved at the beginning, right? Then how did you know that Qi Qi died?"
You are right, we are the only ones who know about July's death. How did he know about it?
Lao Fu looked calm and said, "This is not difficult to guess. You all evacuated from the mountain safely. I went to see Lao Guo a few days ago, and he accidentally revealed that you took a lot of things away, so I guess it must be true in the end."
It was you who won."
"Am I wrong in my guess?"
Put your head in the right direction, you guessed it right.
Then he turned his head and asked, "Brother Fu, there's something I can't remember clearly. You must remember how much I paid you when I asked you to be my guide?"
Lao Fu almost didn't hesitate and said immediately, "Twenty-five thousand, right?"
Nod your head.
I heard the boss said this, and it was indeed twenty-five thousand. If the person in front of him was not Lao Fu, or someone else was pretending to be him, then he would not know at all.
How much is it?
It was originally Lao Fu's thing, but now that he is not dead and is still alive, I will not refuse to give it to him. Then I went back to the house and rummaged through my bag for a long time before I found the piece of eyebrow bone and gave it back to him.
Lao Fu checked it and made sure Gabala was intact, then carefully put it in his arms. He said with his head that it was getting late and there was no hotel nearby, so he asked Brother Yu to take Lao Fu to a room to rest first.
After the person left, he closed the door and asked me in a low voice what I thought.
I thought about it carefully and said, "Boss, although it's surprising, it should be fine. Lao Fu's enemy is July Climbing. He has no motive to do anything with us."
"Well, it's very late. Go get some rest. Be smart and don't sleep too hard."
In fact, I didn't dare to sleep at all. There were many empty rooms in the guest house, and Lao Fu lived next door to me. When I heard any movement, I immediately got up and put my ear to the wall to listen.
The splashing sound was the sound of water, maybe Lao Fu was washing his face or feet.
The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, and Lao Fu got up early. When I got up, he and Tou were sitting at the small stone table in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting. Our friend is not dead, which is a good thing.
"Uncle Zaofu, you look good."
Lao Fu greeted me with a smile, turned his head and said with a smile, "Yunfeng, go and guard the door. The deliveryman just called me and should be here soon."
I said it was pretty fast, so I went to guard the door. After waiting for more than ten minutes, I saw a silver van driving in the distance. When it arrived, the driver turned off the engine and stuck his head out and asked, "Is this where you want the goods?"
I said yes, and the young driver immediately got out of the car and opened the trunk. He saw that the back seat of the van was completely removed and stuffed full of high-end jewelry boxes of various sizes.
"They're all here. Boss, please order. The total is 2,250. Small business discounts are 50, so just give me 2,200."
I counted enough money and gave it to me, and the young driver enthusiastically helped me move it to the yard.
We use these high-end brocade boxes to store cultural relics. This batch of goods is too many and too miscellaneous to be sold in a short time. Even if someone dares to collect them all, we dare not sell them.
Baotou means selling in batches, such as selling pottery and figurines to Beijing, and selling jade and goldware to Hunan. The buyer does not know each other. This can avoid risks to the greatest extent.
"With so many brocade boxes, what kind of store are we going to open here?"
Douyazai was a little dissatisfied: "Brother, you talk too much. Let's go as soon as you finish unloading."
"Look at me, I'm talking too much, haha."
Just as the driver was about to turn around and leave, Lao Fu suddenly said, "Master, you have to go back to the county anyway. See if you can take me to the Vajra Temple on the way. I have something to do at the temple."
"Going to Vajra Temple? Oops, that's a bit far to go. We're already at Paoma Mountain."
Lao Fu took out 200 yuan and handed it over, saying that he would give me a ride, and the money would be considered as your gas money, young man.
"Oh, okay, then we have to leave now. I'm in a hurry and have to deliver goods in the afternoon."
Lao Fu said to leave now.
At this time, I glanced with my head and eyes, and immediately smiled and said, "Uncle Fu, let me go with you. I heard that there are any temple fairs at the Vajra Temple during this period? I will also go and burn incense."
In this way, Lao Fu, me, and this young driver set off on the road to Vajra Temple.
Anyone who is familiar with Kangding knows that Vajra Temple holds different Dharma meetings almost every month. People in Tibetan areas generally believe in Buddhism, such as the Avalokitesvara Enlightenment Dharma Assembly held in March every year, the Peace of All Living Beings Dharma Assembly, and the Fasting Dharma Assembly in April.
The Poseidon Dharma Assembly in May, the Sky Smoke Dharma Assembly in June, July and August, the Hayagriva Dharma Protector Assembly, etc.
But this last month of the year is a bit special. The full name of the Dharma Assembly is very long and difficult to pronounce. It is called "The Eight Religious Teachings of the Yixiu Department, Self-Revealing the Deity, Protecting Yama Luoshou Lord Deity, Ritual Ceremony to Exorcise Demons and End Disasters at the End of the Year."
During the duration of the Dharma Assembly, it is mainly divided into two parts. First, there is a group of eminent monks in the temple who have practiced for many years. These eminent monks will leave the temple and go to the believers' homes to help exorcise demons, pray for blessings, ward off disasters and perform repentance. Then there will be a ceremony in the temple.
A five-day fasting festival is held, Vajra dance is performed, everyone comes to eat fast, and drink a kind of local fruit wine packed in a large wooden barrel.
On the way, I learned the purpose of Lao Fu's visit, but I couldn't figure it out.
So I curiously asked, "Uncle Fu, if I remember correctly, you said before that you borrowed the Gabala from White Horse Temple, right?"
"Then shouldn't you return it to White Horse Temple? Why should you return it to Vajra Temple?"
