Lao Chou hugged the dog and looked at me calmly: "Do you know what to do?"
He seemed to ask this on purpose, quite deliberately testing my posture.
I felt disgusted when I looked at the leech slowly twisting along the wall of the plastic bottle. This kind of greasy and slimy mollusk has always been a special aversion to me.
He opened his mouth, but before I could respond, Sanlin picked up the bottle and was about to throw it out: "Oh my God, how can I get this leech thing back home? I have to throw it out quickly."
Otherwise it would suck human blood!"
Sanlin's words reminded me unintentionally. I took one look at the wound on Cuiling's leg and instantly understood what my cousin meant. I reached out and grabbed Sanlin: "Uncle Lin! Don't throw it away! This is useful.
Very useful!!”
"Ah?" Sanlin looked at me and said, "This thing is harmful to people. You can't even hide from it. What's the use?"
I took the bottle in his hand and opened my mouth: "Uncle Lin, this thing is really harmful to people in normal times, but now it is of great use to Aunt Lin. As long as they get into the wound on Aunt Lin's leg,
If the poisonous blood is sucked out of the skin and flesh, Aunt Lin's legs will be saved!"
Although this method uses leech to make people feel a little numb, in terms of cleanliness, it is definitely cleaner than fly maggots. Moreover, this thing sucks blood very quickly. After sucking, it will come out by itself. It can be said that the follow-up work
It is also very convenient, but the maggot method is not as good as the locust method in terms of difficulty and convenience. From this point of view, this old ugly man is indeed an expert!
Seeing my approval, Sanlin, although his face was full of reluctance, still managed to get all the leeches in the bottle onto Cuiling's lap... To be honest, I dared to fight face to face with my fourth aunt, but looking at
It was really disgusting to see those leech things burrowing into Cuiling's legs. It felt as if those things were burrowing not into Cuiling's flesh, but into my flesh. There was no place on my body that was disgusting.
It was so exciting, and I hadn’t showered in a few days, so I really wanted to stretch out my hand and scratch myself, but I couldn’t show any discomfort, because Sanlin kept looking back at me and asking: "Mr. Ma, can you do that?"
, Isn’t it okay if you just dig in like this?”
I had to look at Sanlin with a positive look on my face, like my grandma who was calm in the face of danger, and nodded: "Yes, that's it, continue."
Now I know that it must not be easy for me as a grandma. As a person, especially a woman, there must be some things that I am particularly afraid of or disgusted with. But as a teacher, the first condition is that I must not be afraid of anything, but in this industry
What can happen if you don't keep it all together? The more disgusting you are, the more likely you are to see it. It's really not an ordinary test of concentration!
"Three hours later, these locusts will come out. Don't worry, they will die soon after they come out. When you find that your wife's legs have returned to their original color, call the doctor quickly and give them an injection and bandage.
After ten days and a half, he should be able to fully recover."
Lao Chou stroked the dog while watching San Lin continue to explain. His gentleness towards the puppy was extremely inconsistent with that face.
Sanlin was still a little worried, which was normal. He said he was going to have his leg amputated, but in the end it was too simple to solve the problem with just a few locusts. He looked at me and said, "Mr. Ma, can it really be done?"
OK?"
I nodded: "Don't worry, I think it won't take long for you to see the effect. In this way, we will go back first. You have your cousin's phone number. If you have any questions, you can call your cousin."
." Anyway, we can't run away, and we can't just wait here.
Sanlin looked at Cuiling's legs, then at me and Lao Chou, as if he had made a great decision: "Okay, I believe you. If my wife's legs can be healed, I will do it tomorrow morning."
Come and say thank you!" He stood up and took a breath: "But I have to talk about my ugly words first. If my wife is not good and the doctor says that amputation is necessary, then I will have to go to Erli and tell her."
I twitched the corner of my mouth and said, "Uncle Lin, I know you don't want to get into too much trouble with Aunt Erli. In this village, everyone is related to each other, but I am an outsider and a junior.
Son, I won’t say a lot of things right now. No matter what happens, let’s get through tonight first, okay?”
"Okay, if I have anything to say, I'll wait until tonight to talk about it. If my wife is fine, everything can be easily discussed!"
I know that Sanlin is not the kind of person who is messy. This is all urgent. If it were done to me, maybe I would be too hot-headed to do anything unexpected. He nodded and followed Uncle Lin to explain.
After saying a few words of caution, I turned around and went out with Lao Chou.
My cousin was squatting under the eaves at the entrance of the courtyard and catching his breath. When he saw me coming out, he quickly wiped his mouth and said, "Jiaolong, is this matter easy to solve?"
I said 'hmm' and said, "It's been solved. Everything should be fine tomorrow morning."
"Really!" My cousin took a long breath and leaned against the door: "Oh my God, Jiaolong, I thank you for your Aunt Erli. I wouldn't be able to stop without you!"
I shook my head and pointed at Lao Chou: "Cousin, you really can't thank me for this. You have to thank this uncle. Thanks to his help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to solve it so happily."
"Ah?" After listening to my words, my cousin looked at Uncle Chou and said, "Brother, I really didn't expect that we are not relatives and have only known each other for such a short period of time that you would be of such great help.
, I am so lucky, go home, go home, go home, I must thank you properly! "
Lao Chou had a calm expression on his face: "Don't be so polite. I think it won't take long for her to come up with this method on her own. I was just a little anxious because of the situation at the time, so I just reminded her.
"
"Don't tell me who deserves the credit. I have to thank you. Come on, it's raining too much. Let's get in the car first!"
Lao Chou stood there and hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking about something before getting into the car with his cousin.
My cousin didn't notice anything strange about Lao Chou at all. After getting in the car, he looked back at Lao Chou enthusiastically: "Brother, how old are you this year?"
"Oh, fifty-three."
"Ah, then you are a little older than me, so I will call you Big Brother." My cousin said with a smile. He could tell that Erli's matter was resolved, so he also breathed a sigh of relief. Sometimes he had to say
, my cousin was also quite able to worry about it, saying, "Brother, where do you come from? I hear your accent doesn't sound like our local people."
"I live in Luomen Ridge, a branch of Changbai Mountain."
I frowned. I had never heard of Luomen Ridge, but I knew that Changbai Mountain was not close to here.
"What, Changbai Mountain? It's so far away, so why are you going to Hetao Village to find relatives?"
But Lao Chou suddenly didn't answer. After a while, when I was almost driving to the door of my cousin's house, he opened his mouth: "Xunlong..."
"Looking for a dragon?"
My cousin looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Why are you looking for a dragon?"
The old man waved his hand: "I can't say more."
The cousin said "Oh", obviously unwilling to do so: "Brother, what do you mainly do?"
"I am just an ordinary farmer."
While he was talking, his cousin saw the car stopped and immediately picked up his umbrella and prepared to get out of the car: "Brother, let's chat for a while. I'll go to Erli's house first and tell her about this, otherwise she'll have to
If you get angry at home, you go into the house first, and then follow Jiaolong into the house first, and then I’ll let your brother and sister cook some dishes, it will be delicious for the two of us!!”
But the old Chou raised his eyes and looked at his cousin: "You go and do your work first, I won't bother you by coming to the door right now."
"That's not okay!"
My cousin raised his eyebrows and said, "Where are you going on this rainy day? Besides, it's going to be dark soon. You've been a big help. Go inside first. We'll talk about it later if you need anything!"
Lao Chou frowned slightly: "Brother, let's go and do your business first. I'll chat with her here. If there's still fate, then I'll ask you to stay overnight tonight.
, if there is no fate, then I will leave no matter what."
My cousin was startled, looked at him, then looked at me, and then responded: "Okay, you guys talk first." After saying that, before getting off the car, he looked at me and said, "Jiaolong, this is
Why are Tian'er leaving? I've helped you a lot, but we can't just let him leave like this."
I kept saying yes until my cousin closed the car door and turned to look at the old man: "Uncle, please stay here tonight. It's dark and rainy, let alone find a car. Even if there is a car, this road is difficult to find."
It’s not easy to drive.”
The old ugly man didn't answer, so it seemed that the car was very quiet. The sound of raindrops hitting the roof of the car was very clear. I was a little anxious. I really didn't understand what this old ugly man meant. I admit it.
I'm very curious about him. I don't want him to leave like this. At least he wants to chat a few more times so that I can get to know him better. But he said that he still wants to see if there is fate. This meeting is fate. Besides, it's raining heavily.
To keep people, I really don’t understand what he means by fate.
"I heard that one among millions of people who are born with yin and yang can have a balanced yin and yang, have extraordinary talents, and be extremely intelligent. With a little enlightenment, Feng Shui, numerology, and Buddhist techniques, as long as they are related to yin and yang, they can all be understood.
Truly a great talent..."
Just when I was thinking about it, Lao Chou suddenly spoke up. He touched the dog and spoke in a slow and formal manner. I remember he just told his cousin that he was a farmer. How could a farmer talk like that?
But the old Chou didn't look at me. He looked at the silver fox dog in his arms with a half-downcast face and continued: "But it's a pity that what you gain must be given up. The life of those who receive this favor will be bumpy, and there will be disasters everywhere, especially
The calamity of love is the most difficult to overcome. You need to cross the water and transform the calamity like a dragon, abandon love and hatred, and then you can leave your name forever..."
As he said this, the old man paused, raised his face and looked at me, his eyes sparkling: "These words should have been told to you when you learned that you were born with yin and yang. I don't know if I am right or not."
I lowered my eyes, feeling quite depressed by his words of "throwing love away from hatred", but I still nodded: "Uncle is right, someone has told me a long time ago that peach blossoms are so blooming that it's hard to pick just one. I
In this life, I can only be alone."
The old man suddenly laughed twice: "People eat whole grains and have seven emotions and six desires. Since they are seven emotions, how can they just throw them away? Although your fate is turbulent, I can't take a closer look, but if I let you
I’m afraid it’s difficult to love without mercy.”
I bit my lip, lowered my head and stopped answering. It was indeed difficult, but I am a dragon. Since these are calamities, I should be able to survive them. Thinking about this, I took a deep breath, raised the corner of my mouth and looked at the old man.
Chou: "Uncle, you are indeed an expert. It is my honor for Jiaolong to get your help. Please stay here tonight. I want to chat with you a few more words."
The old man didn't answer my words, but said in a self-conscious manner: "I have just seen that you are smart, and you can be said to know everything at a glance, but I want to see your talent now. If you can guess the meaning of this thunderstorm sky,
Then I naturally admire you, and I am sure that the yin and yang of nature must be extraordinary. Tonight, I will stay overnight. Most yin and yang masters live alone, but I am willing to make friends with you forever. But if you can't guess, then even if
They are born with yin and yang. I think it is not as magical as the rumors say. Our fate ends here."
Thunderstorm weather?
What Lao Chou means is that if I can’t figure out what’s going on with the thunder and rain, then I’m not worthy of being born with a yin and yang body?!
I frowned. This statement really sounded a bit 'insulting' to my personality. Of course I'm not angry. As an Onmyoji, I can admit that sometimes I'm not as good as others. After all, I
I have only been out for a short time, and there are many masters among Onmyoji, so I have been learning and accumulating, but I will never admit that I have no ability. To put it bluntly, it is just my pride that has been hindered by Lao Chou's words.
In fact, he didn’t need to say it. I already felt that something was wrong today. But after entering the village, I was busy with one thing and I didn’t have time to take a closer look. Thinking about it, I wanted to look up and follow the path.
I looked up at the sky through the windshield, but it was raining heavily that day, so I couldn't tell what was going on.
When the old man saw this, he laughed twice behind me: "Forget it, I'd better go."
"Wait a moment."
I spoke directly and looked back at Lao Chou with a serious look on his face: "Uncle, give me a few more minutes. If I really can't see it, it's not too late for you to leave."
After saying that, I pushed the door and got out of the car. The cold raindrops immediately hit my body. I gritted my teeth. I raised my face and looked directly at the black sky. The rain naturally hit my face mercilessly and flowed into my eyes.
I calmed down slightly, and besides the faint sound of thunder, I seemed to hear several indescribable roars——
Behind the scenes, I raised my left hand, my thumb followed the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger to calculate up and down, silently calculating the years, months, days and hours in my mouth, until my fingers stopped at 'empty', I got a thrill:
"Death in the air is ominous, and the road to good and misfortune is unstoppable!!?"
‘Boom’!!~~~
There was a sudden thunder in the sky. I closed my eyes and listened to the thunder, but I whispered in my mouth: "The thunderstorm and wind are rising, and the disaster is blocked. The waves are three feet long, and the dragon roars..."
With my eyes wide open, I looked up at the thunderstorm sky, my heart was beating loudly. At this time, I didn't even care that it was because of my self-esteem that I got out of the car and stood in the rain. I felt that all the blood in my body was flowing.
The sound of thunder was faintly boiling, so I opened my mouth, and with the rainwater flowing in, I spit out two words: "Walk the dragon." (To be continued)
