Another day passed in Meishan, the sun was setting in the west, the strong wind was howling, and the long river was speechless.
Carpenter Zhong had no intention of going to work anymore. His wife had become someone else's woman. Why was he still working so hard? After the sun went down, he drank wine alone and walked to the foot of this ancient tree. For a moment,
Lying on the cold stone, I closed my eyes.
...At this time, Carpenter Zhong came to a small courtyard, which seemed familiar to him, but he was not sure where it was for a moment. The night was thick, the river was flowing eastward, and the moon was not yet visible.
When Carpenter Zhong walked through the house, he found that there was still a light on in the house, but the wind was so roaring outside that it could not extinguish the swaying light. Carpenter Zhong was a little thirsty at this time, so he wanted to go in and ask someone.
Asking for some water, he leaned down by the window and took a look inside. At this time, he found that although the lights were on in the room, he found two dead people lying across the main room.
Moreover, it is strange to say that the deceased also looked familiar, but he was not sure. Carpenter Zhong was lying on the window of this room and looking at it for a while, and then he was a little scared and did not dare to look. After all, he was lying alone in the middle of the night.
It was unlucky to look at the dead in the house from this window. Moreover, when he looked around, he found that there was only this one house, and outside this house, there was a large area of empty graves.
Carpenter Zhong didn't dare to look, but he felt that the deceased seemed familiar, so he lay down and took another look. Only then did he realize that the deceased was himself, and the woman lying next to him was his woman. After taking a look, Carpenter Zhong
I didn't dare to look at it, but I didn't know what was going on, so I ran away without my life. I could never stay here again.
At this time, he saw it was raining in the sky, and the big raindrops were falling on people's bodies. They were cold and wet, and quite uncomfortable. But there was nothing he could do. After all, this was the only way to escape. Otherwise, continue
Stay in that room and look at the dead person? Of course not.
Carpenter Zhong ran away and ran away. Soon, he saw an old tree, and a piece of skin suddenly came off the old tree. He didn’t know what had scratched off the skin. It looked quite dazzling. At this time, he was sitting
Under this ancient tree, I didn't dare to move for a while, and no one talked to me. I just stared at the ancient tree like this.
At this moment, the house appeared in front of him again for some reason, as if the house could walk on its own, and in this house, lights could be dimly seen flickering. Carpenter Zhong knew what was in this house, so he closed the door at this time
I didn't dare to look at it, but suddenly there was a flash of light in the sky, and there was another thunder.
When Carpenter Zhong opened his eyes again, he found that he was lying under the ancient tree. Of course, he did not see the house. However, the trunk of the ancient tree was struck by lightning again. The peeling area became even larger.
It was raining. It was no longer convenient for Carpenter Zhong to stay here, so he walked back to his house along the way he came. However, when he walked to the door of this house, he remembered the scene in his dream and hesitated for a while.
I don't know yet whether I want to go in or not.
Carpenter Zhong leaned down to the window and took a look. The lights were still on, but he could not see where his woman had gone. And Carpenter Zhong didn’t care about it anymore. It was raining heavily outside and it was extremely cold. If he didn’t enter this room, he would be alone.
Where else can I go?
Not long after entering the house, the heavy rain outside the door became even heavier. It was like pouring water. In the mist all over the sky, there were no traces of pedestrians coming and going. But it didn't matter. At this time, the carpenter was sitting in his main room, thinking about what he had just done in ancient times.
The strange dream I had under the tree made my whole body tremble. I wonder what kind of sign this is?
The sky was full of mist and mist, but at this moment, I saw two people walking on the road, holding umbrellas, one carrying the other. As I got closer, I saw clearly that what was carried on Mao Si's back was actually his own. woman.
When Carpenter Zhong saw such a scene, could he not be angry? But then he thought, his woman was happy with this, and it was inconvenient for him to say anything for the moment, so he had to pretend not to see it. No, when the two of them entered the house , Carpenter Zhong kept rubbing his eyes and said that he had a foreign object in his eyes and that he could not see clearly for a while.
Mao Si didn't care about so much at this time, and in front of Carpenter Zhong, he groped and scratched Carpenter Zhong's woman, which made Carpenter Zhong's woman laugh. But Carpenter Zhong had to listen at this time, but he couldn't help it. He didn't dare to do anything to these two people, so he used the excuse that he had something to do and walked out of the house with an umbrella, saying that he would not come back until dark.
Mao Si was eager for this, and before Carpenter Zhong had gone far, he started doing that thing with Carpenter Zhong's woman again in the main room. Of course Carpenter Zhong did not go far, but hid aside, out of sight. I wasn’t bothered, but when I heard that there was something strange in this room, I still came over to take a look. Seeing such an unbearable scene, I couldn’t help but tremble all over, but I thought I couldn’t beat this big hairy guy, so I didn’t dare for a moment. Make a statement.
Carpenter Zhong was sitting alone under the eaves at this time, letting the cold rain splash on his body. His body felt cold for a moment, and he wanted to sneeze, but he held it back for fear of ruining other people's good things. He stayed under the eaves like this. , I don’t know how much time passed, but when it was getting dark, the two of them still hadn’t finished their work. Carpenter Zhong felt hungry for a while and had to eat, so he gently pushed the door open. At this time, the two of them had just finished their work. I'm putting on pants.
Carpenter Zhong thought that he was just a poor man, and that God was wise and had given him a daughter-in-law, so that he would not have to annihilate his descendants, so he was already satisfied. But now that his wife no longer wanted him, it was inconvenient for him to say anything. Alas, let him go. Well, everything is fate anyway, what can we do?
At this time, Carpenter Zhong made a dish in the kitchen and sat alone on the dilapidated table, drinking wine. This was the only way to rely on it. Otherwise, how could he deal with this scandal soberly?
"I get annoyed when I see you!" Carpenter Zhong's woman was standing in front of Carpenter Zhong, pointing at Carpenter Zhong and saying. Yes, compared with Mao Si, Carpenter Zhong looks ugly. How can such a man match him? How about oneself?
However, Carpenter Zhong’s woman did not dare to hit Carpenter Zhong. She just asked him to leave her sight. Otherwise, Carpenter Zhong’s woman said that she would be in a bad mood. When Carpenter Zhong heard this, he took the food and wine and went out. After entering the house and sitting in the heavy rain for a while, he heard his woman yelling loudly, saying that it was not far enough. So Carpenter Zhong moved further away until Carpenter Zhong’s woman could no longer be seen. , then he stopped moving, and Carpenter Zhong returned to the ancient tree.
At this time, lightning was flashing in the sky. After the lightning, there was another thunder. Carpenter Zhong stayed under the ancient tree at this time, relying entirely on the blessing of the gods. He never did anything bad. , Gods and Buddhas in heaven will definitely keep you safe and sound, right?
A thunder exploded, which made Zhong Carpenter a little scared. I don't know if it is good to sit alone under this ancient tree and drink wine when it rains and thunders like this. But if you don't stay under this ancient tree, where can you stay at this time?
Well, why don't you just stay in this heavy rain and get thirsty? And the other places are completely empty. Not to mention there are houses, there is not even a shed for guarding melons.
The only choice is to stay here and drink, otherwise, his woman will be unhappy, and as long as he sees his woman unhappy, Carpenter Zhong will feel very distressed. There is no choice but to stay in this ancient tree for the sake of his woman.
Come on, you never do bad things, God and Buddha will definitely bless you and keep you safe.
At this time, a strong wind blew in the sky. Wherever the wind passed, the sound of rolling rocks on the ground was heard endlessly, and the ancient tree also made appalling whistles. However, Carpenter Zhong didn't care about so much and just drank his own drink.
It's just wine. With the shelter of this ancient tree, the rain can't come in. For a while, it's dry and dry under the ancient tree, just like a house.
After drinking for a while, the wine was finished. Rather than saying that it was finished, it was better to say that the strange wind had finished the wine. At this time, it was inconvenient to stay under this ancient tree anymore, so I left here in the rain.
As soon as the ancient tree came out, a plume of green smoke came out of the ancient tree, and the ancient tree was struck by lightning again. If I had come out an hour later, I might never have come out.
When I returned to my own house, I found that the door was closed. It was as cold and silent as a temple, lifeless, and it made me want to cry. But this is my home. On a rainy day, I have nowhere to go and stay there.
Where can I go from here? I knocked lightly on the door, but no one responded. My woman was clearly staying in this room just now, so why did she disappear in the blink of an eye?
