Chapter 128 Night Talk around the Fireside Uninvited Guests
Later in the night, in the early hours of the morning, I stared for a while and woke up.
At this time, I suddenly saw that the paper money in the brazier was almost extinguished, and Xia Shuishui was lying on the chair and asleep.
I immediately threw a handful of paper money into the basin, and then patted Xia Shuishui awake.
"Is it already dawn?"
"No, it's still early before dawn, so don't sleep! Uncle Cha said the paper money can't be stopped! It won't stop until noon tomorrow!"
Xia Shuishui rubbed her eyes and said, I know.
After explaining a few more words, I went downstairs to look for someone, and I saw someone had moved a chair and was sitting motionless at the gate of Xia's house.
He has an expressionless face, carrying a cloth bag on his back, holding a compass in his hand, sitting upright, guarding the gate like a door god.
"Uncle Cha, it's a bit cold outside, why don't you go inside and warm yourself up by the fire."
He said, "No, if you use money to eliminate disasters for others, don't dare to be lazy and careless."
"Come on, boy, take a sip and you won't feel cold anymore. It can also get rid of bad luck."
"What is this? Is it wine?"
"This is not wine."
Uncle Cha handed over a small bowl. There was only half a bowl of turbid black water in the bowl. I smelled it and found that it did not smell of alcohol at all.
I took a small bite and almost choked to death.
It wasn't wine, but it was bitter and spicy, just like mustard water! It also had a strong smell of ash. I quickly returned the bowl to him. The smell was really unacceptable.
He laughed, picked up the bowl and took a sip as if nothing had happened.
"Uncle Cha, didn't you send the chicken away? Are you still afraid that it will come back?"
He shook his head and looked at the dark front and said, "I'm not afraid that the chicken will come back, I'm afraid that someone else will come around, so I have to guard the door, but the probability is very small."
There was a charcoal stove in the yard. I took it out and lit it at the door. I was chatting with him over the fire. At this time, Uncle Cha suddenly took out a small scimitar from his arms and threw it into the charcoal stove. This knife was made of iron.
The leather shell is patinated and is an old thing at first sight, and the handle of the knife is also engraved with the Nine Palaces and Bagua.
I'm curious to ask you what kind of knife is this?
He smiled and said it was an ancestral sword.
Later, he also told me that the ancestors of the old Cha family not only had fortune tellers, but also Taoist priests. His real name was "Zha Hongqing", and Cha Hukou was just a nickname.
"No wonder, Uncle Cha, I feel like you know some Taoist priest-like methods."
"Haha, my three-legged cat skills are not on the stage. To say that they are more powerful, they still belong to the ancestors of the old Cha family. They practice the Three Purities Orthodoxy. Gods and ghosts are free from all evils. Even if they die and go to the bottom,
The man with the ox-headed horse noodles also needs to give him 30% thin noodles."
"Didn't I tell that chicken just now that if anyone blocks the way here, he can give me my name? In fact, he also gave me the name of Lao Cha's family, haha."
"Hey! But it's a pity. Later, during the war years, the inheritance of the old Cha family was cut off. Now only my junior brother and I are left to learn the commoner method. Junior brother has always been in poor health. He probably hasn't been in a few years.
Good times.”
I warmed up the fire and asked, "Uncle Cha, are you married? Hurry up and have some children so that we can continue the inheritance. Both boys and girls will do."
His eyes suddenly felt lonely, and he shook his head and said, "You don't know, in fact, I have been married twice, but I didn't have a son and a half. The little wealth I have worked hard to save over the years has been lost to those two women."
Scammed everyone."
"hat?"
"hy?"
"How is that possible! How did they defraud you of your money!"
"Haha, how can I cheat, take the money and run away."
Uncle Cha smiled bitterly, "Actually, after all, I have my own reasons. I'm too stupid to say sweet words."
"No, you are a master of physiognomy, Uncle Cha. Didn't you notice this kind of woman in advance?"
He laughed again and said, "Sometimes fate really plays tricks on people. I can see through people's faces but not their hearts. People's hearts are unpredictable."
"Then how much money have you been defrauded by these two women in total?"
"I think it's about 600,000 yuan, which is my savings for more than ten years. It's nothing, I'm very open-minded, this is the fortune I checked in my household registration, it's just a different way of showing it, a poor fortune teller
It has five disadvantages and three shortcomings.”
His tone was calm and he spoke calmly, but I was almost pissed off when I heard it. Isn't it just that I have worked so hard for half my life to return to the pre-liberation period?
I immediately comforted him and said, "Uncle Cha, you can do it yourself
Just look at it, we have earned a lot this time, why don’t we make it up in full at once? Anyway, I won’t get a penny. This time, in addition to several million in cash, I also have a few houses. Chun’an is a good place. In two years
When the tourism industry develops, you can just rent out the entire house and collect rent steadily."
He patted me heavily on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Boy, in a sense, you can be regarded as the noble person in my life."
I hurriedly waved my hand, "No, no, I don't dare to be a noble person. We just help each other, haha."
"By the way, you have had two women! How come you haven't left a son and a half for so many years? Is there something unspeakable about your body, Uncle Cha?"
Uncle Cha was stunned for a second and yelled at me, "Fuck you! I have a very normal body!"
"Hey, it's okay, uncle. There are no outsiders here. We are both grown men. Are you so shy? I dare not say anything else, but if you really have a problem in this area, I can definitely help you."
"I got a book of joy by chance before. What was recorded in it were all the top-secret techniques that have been lost. Uncle Cha, tell me, are you unable to get up? Or can't get out? Or can you run fast?"
Uncle Cha stared at me coldly, I pretended not to see it, and then said, "I have three tricks here, corresponding to the three symptoms of your treatment. The first trick is to ask the little fish to spit bubbles, the second trick is to ask the otter to wash the face, and the third trick is to ask the otter to wash his face.
Tell the evil python to turn over."
"I'll teach you these three moves and practice them first. If it doesn't work, it's okay. I have other top-secret techniques here." ??
"Stop! What are you doing!"
"Uncle Cha, what are you doing! Wait!"
He suddenly grabbed the back of my neck and pushed my face hard into the charcoal stove!
I was unprepared, and the bandage on my head was set on fire, almost disfiguring me.
In fact, I can understand that I am not angry with him. A man has a good face. It is normal for him to become angry when something hurts him. At this time, he should be given more care and tolerance.
I thought to myself, since his two wives have run away, there is something wrong with him. Anyway, I will have to remove the bandage and stitches in a day or two. If it doesn't work, I will take him to Dr. Song for a checkup. After all, Dr. Song is a professional.

Then Uncle Cha and I had a night chat around the fire in front of Xia Shuishui's house and started talking about each other.
In the past, I heard him tell many stories about fortune telling, which were very exciting. So far, I believe in the word "fate" more and more.
Looking at the fire I thought to myself "What is fate?"
Poor life, rich life, miserable life, lonely life.
Why do some people end up in poverty despite their hard work? Why do some people get rich just by doing anything? It feels like it has been decided in advance. It would be great if everyone could know the outcome of their life in advance.
, that will make life much easier.
Just as I was thinking about it, Uncle Cha suddenly stood up from his chair, his eyes fixed on the darkness ahead.
I didn't know the situation, so I stood up and asked what happened?
"Look at the compass!"
I lowered my head and looked at the compass, and my expression changed. The compass didn't respond all night, but why did it suddenly respond now that it was almost dawn?
I nervously asked, "Is it because the chicken sent something away and returned?"
"No, it's not that! It's something else! Maybe it's the dumplings and the smell of incense that have attracted others, but it's not just the same one. Damn it, don't look at who is guarding this house!"
I squinted my eyes and looked ahead, feeling like there was a faint mist.
Uncle Cha pressed my head down to stop me from looking around. He raised his head and took a big sip of the bitter and spicy water, then smashed the porcelain bowl into pieces with a loud bang.
Then, he padded his hands with a cloth, pulled out the red-hot iron scimitar from the stove, and sprayed the water in his mouth on the knife with a puff.
The blade instantly caught fire, and the fire looked light blue, just like the blue flame produced by burning alcohol.
I saw him holding the blue fire knife, taking a step forward with his left foot, and immediately took a half step forward with his right foot over his left foot. Then his left foot moved forward, and his right foot followed and was level with the heel of his left foot, and he went down hard towards the ground.
One step!
At this moment, the wind suddenly rose from the ground, and Uncle Cha threw the fire knife in his hand toward the darkness ahead.
I saw the flames drawing a fire dragon in mid-air, and it was thrown nearly ten meters away. The tip of the knife rushed down and stuck straight into the ground.
Uncle Cha raised his eyebrows and glared coldly, and yelled in front of him like thunder, "Old Cha's family doesn't even have a toast or fine wine! There is only a glass of guillotine wine! If you don't leave, you will not be able to reincarnate in this world! Get out of here!"
