Chapter 275: The Colorful Coffin (112)
Ten years of life for a palace of eight immortals?
I really didn't know how to describe my inner feelings, and I didn't ask Pear Blossom any more questions, so I asked her: "What means did the old man use to solve the ghost flower?" ”
She glanced at me, looked embarrassed, and said, "He won't let me say it, but he gave me two things, one is a ghost flower seed, and the other is a book!" ”
As she spoke, she got up and walked out the door. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a while, she came over with a burlap bag and said, "Oh, here are the ghost flower seeds and "Plum Blossom Easy Counting", his old man let you learn "Plum Blossom Easy Count", saying that it will help you in the future." ”
As she spoke, she seemed to think of something, and said, "By the way, before parting, his old man said something inexplicable, he said, say hello to Xiao Jiu's father for me!" ”
"What?" I exclaimed, Master You Tianming knows my father? It's impossible! My father was just an ordinary carpenter, how could the two of them know each other from two worlds, and more importantly, listening to this tone, the old man seemed to have a lot of respect for my father.
"Are you sure that's what he said?" I hurriedly asked.
She nodded, "Yes, that's exactly what his old man said. ”
Hearing this, my face sank, this is not because of the old man's words, but a sense of homesickness in my heart, since the last time I ran away from home, I haven't been home for more than a year, I don't know what the situation is at home, I don't know if my mother's legs have been completely cured, and I don't know what my father's condition is.
Flashing this thought, I took out my mobile phone and pressed a few numbers, it was the phone number of Widow Liu in our village, I wanted to find my father through Widow Liu, after all, my parents had no communication tools, so they could only call other people's mobile phones, and then find him to answer the phone through others.
I don't know why, I wanted to press the call button several times, but I didn't have the courage.
When the pear blossom girl saw me stunned, she asked me, "Brother Chen Jiu, who are you calling here?" ”
I glanced up and said softly, "My dad!" ”
After speaking, I stared at my phone, as a wanderer, it would be absolutely a lie to say that I don't want to go home, but when I think of my ambition when I left and ran away, I... I... My eyes are astringent, and I want to cry!
At that time, I was less than 20 years old, and I was a young man! I have always grown up with my parents since I was a child, and it can even be said that I have never experienced strong winds and waves, but I have been out for more than a year, and I have experienced several lives and deaths, which makes me have a strange mood towards my hometown.
There have been a few times when I have given up my identity as the Eight Immortals and returned to the countryside and went to work in the factory according to my father's request, at least in this way, in exchange for a more peaceful life, I will not be like now, I will live a chill every day, and I will not lose my longevity for many years.
Now that I think about it, maybe that's how life is! Bumps and bumps, bumps and bumps, bumps and entanglements, but in the end I find that those ten years have been spent in bumps and bumps.
"Your dad?" The pear blossom girl looked at me, there was some ambiguity in her tone, she snatched my mobile phone, didn't say a word, pressed the call button, I thought about taking the phone back, somehow, I didn't take action at hand, and looked at the pear blossom girl nervously.
In just ten seconds, I felt like a century long, and my eyes were fixed on Ewha Girl when I heard her say, "Hello, uncle! My name is Pan Lihua, and I am Chen Jiu's current girlfriend. ”
I didn't know what Widow Liu on the other end of the phone said, but I knew that Sister Pear Hua said, "Okay, I'll wait for you!" ”
As she spoke, the pear blossom girl walked up to me and said with a smile: "It turns out that your nickname is Jiu Yanzi, so I will call you Jiu Yanzi from now on, and it seems close." ”
When the pear blossom girl said this, maybe because of the different regions, the nine men called very strangely.
If it were normal, I would have corrected her, but now my heart is all over the phone.
After about three or four minutes, a deep male voice came from the phone, "Sisi, is that you?" ”
Hearing this, tears came out of my eyes, it was my father's voice, and he mistook Pear Blossom for Joyce.
"Uncle, I am—" The pear blossom girl said.
Before she finished speaking, I snatched the phone, and I had a thousand words in my heart to say to my father.
However, I felt something in my throat, and I couldn't say a word, but tears were pouring down.
"Sisi, is that you?"
The other end of the line said again.
I wanted to speak, but I couldn't.
"Sisi, isn't that you?"
The other end of the line said again.
I wanted to speak, but I didn't dare to speak.
"Sisi, is there something wrong with Jiu Yanzi?"
The other end of the phone was a little anxious, his voice was a little impatient, and he continued: "That dead man, he didn't want to be a Eight Immortals at the beginning, but he had to not listen, but now it's okay, it's in trouble!" ”
As he spoke, his father paused on the other end of the phone, as if he remembered something, and said with a smile: "Sisi, you don't want to tell me, what is the Nine Guys!" ”
I listened to my father's words, he was worried that I would die outside.
These words seem ugly, but in fact, parents all over the world, who are not worried about their children suffering misfortune outside, what they are afraid of is that a strange phone call comes and is told that their children have suffered misfortune, and what they are waiting for is just a cold corpse.
"I'm fine!" I replied tentatively.
As soon as these words came out, there was no sound on the other end of the phone, and I didn't dare to continue talking.
In this way, I didn't speak to my father, and after five or six minutes of silence, my father spoke, and he said, "The phone bill is expensive, I'll hang up first, and I have time to call your mother, she misses you a lot." ”
After that, the father was going to hang up the phone.
I hurriedly shouted, "Father, wait! ”
"Something?" His father's voice was so faint that it was impossible to hear his joys and sorrows.
"I—" I hesitated, but found that I didn't know what to say to my father.
"I'm coming!" The pear blossom girl snatched the phone and said with a smile: "Hello uncle, I am Chen Jiu's current girlfriend!" ”
To my surprise, in less than a second, my father actually said, "It's a pear blossom, right?" Yes, you are a good match for my nine sons! ”
Hearing this, I swept away the homesickness, what is the situation, my father knows Pear Blossom Girl? When did they meet?
"Uncle, do you know me?" The pear blossom girl, like me, was also very puzzled, and asked her father.
The father seemed to be in a good mood, "I know, I don't know, I also know that you are the future daughter-in-law of our family!" ”
After saying this, my father probably realized that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly added, "As soon as I heard your voice, I knew that you were a good match for my nine sons." ”
I couldn't cry or laugh, my father's explanation was too pale and weak, and I originally wanted Pear Blossom Sister to continue asking, but thinking of Master You Tianming's matter, I decided to probe my father's tone, so I took the phone from Pear Blossom Sister's hand, first called out to my father, and then asked, "Do you know the colorful coffin?" ”
I asked this way, I was going to ask it tactfully, I was afraid that if I directly said Master You Tianming, my father would directly divert the topic or hang up the phone.
I'm all too familiar with my father's personality.
"What?" The other end of the phone exclaimed, and said in a trembling voice: "Jiu Yanzi, don't be joking, that colorful coffin is not a joke, if you encounter such a coffin, run quickly!" ”
As soon as I heard my father's words, I immediately understood that my father, as a carpenter, should know about the colorful coffin, so I said, "I have met it, but let an old man solve it." ”
"Where are you now?" The father asked an inexplicable word.
I didn't hide it, and told my father very bluntly, "Shiyan is here." ”
"Shiyan!" He sighed deeply, "I owe him a big favor to the old man, it's not good to pay it back!" ”
After speaking, my father was probably afraid that I would continue to ask, so he hurriedly said a few common words and hung up the phone.
As soon as she hung up the phone, before she had time to put away her phone, the pear blossom girl came over and said, "Jiu Yanzi, I didn't see it, you actually have such a powerful father." ”
I didn't understand what she meant, so I asked her why she said that.
She smiled and said, "You can tell from my voice that I'm a good match for you, don't you think it's amazing?" ”
I glanced at her angrily, I thought she could say something useful, but who knew that she actually came to such a sentence, and I didn't ignore her, and my mind began to think about my father's words.
From what I said just now, I can hear that my father should not be simple, he is not a simple carpenter, and I don't know why, I suddenly thought of Luo Dongchuan, and I always felt that Luo Dongchuan and my father were a little similar in temperament.
Of course, this temperament does not mean something like demeanor, but arrogance emanating from the bones.
Yes, it's arrogance.
Father and Luo Dongchuan have the same arrogance, is there some kind of relationship between them? Could it be that Luo Dongchuan and I are brothers?
I always thought that my father was a simple and ordinary person, but from the conversation just now, I could hear that my father was hiding something from me.
After thinking about it for a while, I really couldn't figure it out.
At this moment, my mobile phone rang, and when I saw it, it was Widow Liu's phone, and when I pressed the answer button, I heard my father's voice, and he said: "Nine Guys, no matter what the old man asked you before, you must agree to him, even if you are asked to die, you must agree to him." ”
I asked him why.
The father's tone was a bit heavy, only five words, and he said, "You owe him a life." ”
After saying this, my father hung up the phone, and a busy sound came.
Now, I became more and more puzzled in my heart, do I owe him a life?
Flashing this thought, I suppressed the doubts in my heart and asked Lihuamei, "What about You Tianming?" ”
She squeaked for a long time, didn't speak, made me anxious, almost jumped out of the hospital bed, and asked again, "What about You Tianming?" ”
She saw that my face was wrong, and said, "Let's go!" ”
"Where?" I asked.
"Home!" She said.
"Home?" I was stunned, "What is he doing when he comes home!" ”
"Funeral!"
After saying this, Pear Blossom Sister didn't seem to be quite right, turned around and walked towards the door, I shouted several times, and she walked over without looking back.
After she left, I didn't care about the drip on my upper arm, tore off the potion bottle, and simply changed into clothes.
As soon as I went out of the door, I found Yang Yan and Lihua Mei squatting at the door.
Seeing me come out, Yang Yan grabbed me, "Brother Jiu, it's almost five o'clock, don't forget tomorrow's funeral." ”
I was stunned, Made, I had been thinking about Master You Tianming, and I actually forgot about tomorrow's funeral, so I said, "You go to Shanghe Village to stay first, and I will go over at seven o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
"No, someone has greeted you, you have to be in the hospital tonight, and you will go to Shanghe Village early tomorrow morning, if you want to know, there will be an answer!" Yang Yan didn't know what nerves he had, so he actually glanced at Li Jiangang and them, and several people put me back alive in the ward.
What hurt me the most was that they were afraid that I would run out, so they found a few white ropes and tied me to the hospital bed, and put an apple at the head of my bed, and put three pillars of fragrance on top of the apple, and put a basin and some yellow paper on my face.
Looking at their movements, I almost didn't go crazy, this is what dead people only do before they die, they are treating me as a dead man! (To be continued.) )
