I thought about it, if the fat Taoist priest who performed the ritual at Tang Gui's house that day shaved his beard and took off the yellow hat on his head, then... the outlines of the two seemed to be the same person!
Just as I was thinking about that series of strange events, I suddenly heard Tian Sanjiu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, say calmly: "Look ahead."
I took a closer look.
Slam on the brakes and turn the steering wheel left!
There was a smell of stale tires, and the car seemed to be correcting its direction.
It was so fucking scary that I almost flew to the bottom of the mountain.
"I almost had a car accident, why didn't you remind me?"
Tian Sanjiu said, didn’t I remind you?
I was unlucky. There was a traffic jam on such a broken mountain road. A hook machine broke down in the middle of the road, blocking the road. The traffic jam lasted for more than three hours. By the time we drove back to Xiajiang Village, it was already completely dark.
It got dark.
"Hey, hey, wake up, we'll be here soon." I saw Tian Sanjiu falling asleep leaning on his seat.
I know why he stopped driving when he returned home. It was because driving was tiring and I didn’t want to drive in the future. It would be better to take a taxi.
"Hmm? Here we are?"
"ah....."
Tian Sanjiu stretched out and said vaguely: "There is food in the trunk, go get me some."
I said I would get you something to eat?
I haven't eaten anything all day, how can I get it for you? Who can do it for me? I'll get it for you.
Of course, I didn’t dare to say the last sentence.
Tian Sanjiu chuckled and rolled down the car glass, waving to Master Ji.
"Head, you're back."
"Lao Ji, did anything happen during the day?"
"No, all the brothers are watching, and the ugly one named Lao Xiumei doesn't dare to show her face."
"Well, brothers, what are you having for dinner?"
"There was some cake left yesterday, but most people didn't eat much."
"How can that work?" Tian Sanjiu shook his head and said, "You call the restaurant in the county last time and ask them to make thirty portions of boiled pork slices, thirty portions of roast duck, and sixty portions of rice.
Send it over."
"Botou, if you don't care, we can just eat tomorrow," Master Ji said with some embarrassment: "It's more than 60 kilometers from the county seat to us, so they won't give it away..."
"Not giving it away?"
"In addition to food money, I'll give you an extra five thousand yuan for travel expenses. That's it, hurry up, we're all hungry."
"good."
In less than two hours, everyone had dinner.
The owner of the restaurant in the county town was driving with broken bread, his face almost bursting with laughter, he was wearing an apron and he counted the money twice, then got in his car and drove away.
Around ten o'clock, the rice was packed in the big thermos bucket and it was still warm. We were all enjoying the meal and bragging about it, when I suddenly heard the sound of a bicycle bell.
Since there were no street lights in Xiajiang Village and the road was dark, I looked back when I heard the bell ringing.
I didn't see it clearly at first, but when I saw it more closely, I stood up. Why did she come here?
“Dingle bell…..Dingle bell…..”
I saw that Tang Gui's wife was riding towards where we were eating on a large 28-bar bicycle.
She was wearing tattered clothes, with a happy smile on her face, and a basketball on her head.
The basketball was tied with a hemp rope, went down from her ears, and wrapped around her neck, so that the basketball did not fall off and was firmly placed on her head.
"Jingle Bell."
She rang the bell and shouted: "The two countries are at war. Bu Zhan is here to envoy. I am the envoy of basketball."
When she was still more than ten meters away from us, she suddenly applied the brakes.
After stopping, Tang Gui's wife took off the basketball on her head, held it with both hands and gently put it on the ground, and then kicked it towards us.
The basketball rolled over in circles, but Master Ji blocked it with his feet.
I asked something.
Master Ji lowered his head and played with the basketball for a while. He seemed to see something, and his face suddenly turned pale!
"Old Ji, what's wrong?"
"What is it? Let me take a look." Tian Sanjiu came over as he spoke.
Master Ji's face was extremely ugly.
He hugged the basketball and pressed it tightly under him.
