Chapter 129 Orphans
The night breeze was blowing, and in the dark, Chen Xiucai's old voice seemed to be heard: "The Yin people are on the road, and the Yang people are avoiding it!"
I pulled out the corpse-driven whip and wrapped it around my waist.
The reason why Chen Xiucai inserted the corpse-driven whip on the ground was that it was specifically left for me. This is a token of the corpse-driven whip and cannot be thrown away.
When I wrapped the corpse-driven whip around my waist, I felt a sense of responsibility.
At this moment, I was no longer the boy in my teens and twenty years old. I was the responsibility of a sect, and I was shouldering the honor and disgrace of a sect. I was the only direct disciple of the sect. Whether the sect of the sect is prosperous or destruction depends on my luck.
I held the corpse-driven whip tightly and swear in my heart that I will definitely not be disgraceful to my master's order and carry forward the corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corpse-driven corp
I lit three incense sticks and inserted them into the place where the corpse-driven whip was originally inserted. The cigarette curled up and drifted into the distance.
Leizi threw a handful of yellow paper into the air. The yellow paper flew with the wind, and Leizi's voice lingered on the empty construction site: "Master, you will be back, right? We are waiting for you!"
I quietly wiped my tears. From the moment I turned around, I told myself that I should not sink and be sad. Chen Xiucai gave up his life to exchange for our new life. We must replace Chen Xiucai and live well, so that we cannot let him down.
As for the end of the fierce battle that night, none of us knew, but there was no ghost energy on this construction site. We could not imagine the tragic nature of that time. We only knew that Chen Xiucai used his heroic soul to save the construction site and the lives of hundreds of workers. Unfortunately, no one except us knew all this.
When we walked out of the construction site, Boss Lu came up and said, "Three brothers, I am deeply sorry for Master Chen's departure! I originally invited you to catch ghosts, but I didn't expect such a big thing to happen, hey!"
Ku Junwei said: "Boss Lu, you don't blame you for this matter, and we don't blame you! The ghost energy on the construction site has dissipated and can start construction from now on. I only have two requirements. First, be better for those workers, better quality of the property, and do business with your conscience!"
"Of course! This is absolute!" Boss Lu slapped his chest and thudded. After this incident, he probably would have done business in a regular manner.
Ku Junwei nodded and continued, "The second request is that you hope you fulfill your previous promise. After we help you complete this matter, you will invest in the construction of an orphanage in the suburbs of the city. Do you still remember?"
"Remember! Remember!" Boss Lu was also a person who believed in his words and immediately agreed: "Master Ku, don't worry, I, Mr. Lu, will never break my promise to you!"
Ku Junwei said: "That's the best! If I break my promise, I will come back to find you!"
Boss Lu nodded: "Then...what you promised me..."
Ku Junwei smiled and said, "Don't worry, Director Liu and Zhangguan Tong, I will help you with it. I will teach you how to rest assured in the future!"
"Thank you then!" Boss Lu smiled and invited us to get in the car.
Ku Junwei didn't get in the car, so he asked Boss Lu to go back first, and then took Leizi and me around two corners and came to a barbecue restaurant on the street.
When we came to the county town that day, the first time we drank wine at this barbecue restaurant.
But in just a few days, everything has changed.
At that time, I, Lei Zi, Chen Xiucai and Ku Junwei, were sitting on the street talking, but now there were only three people left. The fire was reflected on my face, and I vaguely saw Chen Xiucai sitting beside me, smiling, drinking white wine happily, and wine beads were hanging on the white beard on my chin.
Although Chen Xiucai was not here, we still made a place for Chen Xiucai and put dishes and chopsticks on it.
I filled a glass of white wine, flipped the glass, and splashed the white wine in the glass on the ground: "Master, this glass is for us toast you!"
The atmosphere at the wine party was a bit heavy, and Ku Junwei asked me and Leizi: "What are your plans next?"
Lei Zi said: "I don't know, I'll do whatever I should do. Anyway, I will follow Jiu Jizi and continue carrying the coffin! I'm not very educated and just a rough man. Apart from physical work like carrying the coffin, I really don't know what else I can do!"
"Jiujizi, where are you?" Ku Junwei asked.
I shook my head: "I don't have any plans, let's go back to the countryside first! The money I earned this time is enough to go home to repair the old house. Maybe the first thing I do when I go home is to repair the house!"
Ku Junwei nodded and chatted with us: "Anyway, I'll come to you again if I have business in the future!"
Leizi smiled and said, "Then thank you Brother Wei!"
Ku Junwei took a sip of wine: "Let's do it, Lei Zi will go home tomorrow. Didn't you buy medicine for your mother last time? Take the medicine back to your mother quickly and treat it early!"
Speaking of this, Ku Junwei turned his head and looked at me: "As for Jiujizi, if you have nothing urgent to do, I will accompany me to a place tomorrow!"
Perhaps because we were in a heavy mood, we didn’t drink much wine that night. After drinking two glasses of wine, we lost the interest in drinking and went home to sleep.
I had a dream, dreaming that I returned to the mountain temple.
I knocked on the gate of the Mountain Temple with a thumping boom and kept shouting: "Master, I'm back! I'm back! Open the door quickly!"
However, the door has not been opened.
No matter how hard I push the door, the door doesn't move at all and it just can't be opened.
Dongdongdongdong! Dongdongdongdongdong!
I kept knocking on the door, I kept knocking on the door...
Then I opened my eyes and the door of the room was indeed knocked and thudded.
I got up, rubbed my red eyes, and got up and opened the bedroom door.
Ku Junwei stood at the door, waved his arms and said, "Your uncle, you sleep so hard. If you don't wake up, I will almost break into the door!"
I looked at the time: "Where are you going so early?"
Ku Junwei pulled me out the door: "Come with me!"
"Ahhhhh!" I shouted from behind: "Clothes! I'm not wearing clothes yet!"
For the whole morning, Ku Junwei was pulling me around, buying several large pockets of snacks and toys, renting a small truck, stuffing a whole car, and spending a lot of money.
"What are you doing?" I asked in confusion.
Ku Junwei smiled but said nothing, and was still buying crazily. And I had to buy dozens of clothes at one time, which made me puzzled. Is Ku Junwei still doing wholesale business in his spare time besides catching ghosts?
When the small truck passed through the city and came to the remote suburbs, I realized the intention of Ku Junwei to buy so many things.
Not far ahead, there is a small square courtyard. The yard is quite large, with open spaces in front and brick walls and tile houses behind. However, it is old, which makes these houses look dilapidated and some of the walls fall off, just like savages, and moss is crawling out of them.
There was a rusty sign hanging in front of the yard, and three words on the sign caught my attention: "Orphanage!"
Orphanage?!
It turned out that the place where Ku Junwei asked me to accompany him was actually an orphanage!
Due to the backward economy in western Hunan, many social welfare can't keep up. Looking at the wall in front of me, the dilapidated and outdated orphanage, I couldn't tell the feeling of sorrow.
It was not until this time that I finally understood why Ku Junwei asked Boss Lu to build an orphanage. He hoped to create a better and healthier living environment for the children here.
"Xiao Jiu, will you bring something to your house when you come home from outside?" Ku Junwei suddenly asked me a strange thing.
I thought for a while: "Yes! I remember that when I was studying outside, I would buy some cigarettes for my dad or bring some clothes for my mother when I went home during the holidays!"
Ku Junwei smiled and said, "Yes, so every time I go home, I will bring so many things!"
"Go home?!" I was slightly stunned, and suddenly I seemed to understand something.
Ku Junwei said: "Don't be surprised, I walked out of this orphanage, and this is my home!"
Ku Junwei walked into the orphanage first. I looked at Ku Junwei's back and it turned out that he was an orphan!
I am once again impressed by Ku Junwei. An orphan can live out his own dignity and pride, and no one can understand the hardships in it!
The originally quiet orphanage became lively because of the arrival of Ku Junwei and I.
Snacks, toys, daily necessities piled up like mountains in the middle of the small playground.
Looking at the innocent and brilliant smiling faces of the children, my mood also became brighter, especially when I distributed gifts to the children, the thank you they said to me flowed into my heart like honey. It was really a happy thing to help others.
Most of the children here are abandoned by their biological parents when they are born. In their lives, they don’t know what their parents look like, nor can they understand fatherly love and motherly love. The tender faces and innocent eyes make me feel sad and sad. I really don’t understand why there are those cruel parents in the day who can abandon their biological flesh and blood. Aren’t these people afraid of going to hell?
The children all knew Ku Junwei. They surrounded Ku Junwei in the middle and shouted: "Brother Serena! Brother Serena!"
Ku Junwei hugged this one for a while and touched that one for a while, with the purest smile on his face.
At this moment, Ku Junwei had lost his strong aura of the world and was as happy as a child.
I think, maybe only when I return to the orphanage can Ku Junwei reveal his true self and will not be that gangster-like little Taoist priest.
"Brother Serena, Brother Serena, is it good to play games with us?" The children saw Ku Junwei's extremely happy. In their minds, Ku Junwei was their idol.
