Taking his grandson to another world Chapter Seventy-Five: Buying Cattle and Sheep and Beating Thieves, Preparing to Move to a New House
I was about to stealthily go to the underground passage when I heard a voice shouting for the thief in the distance. I quickly looked up in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man running towards me, stuffing something into his arms as he ran.
"Stop, stop, stop. What are you running? I ran up to the middle-aged man and raised my hand to block his path.
"Grandpa Aoyama!" The middle-aged man actually knew me, and when he saw me blocking him, his face became extremely ugly.
"Take out the things in your arms, and I'll let you go. Otherwise--- don't blame me for being unkind. I said, looking at a tuft of white hair on the middle-aged man's head.
"Huh? I don't have anything in my arms. Really, I don't believe you search. The middle-aged man pushed his chest forward to me.
"Yes. I can tell you, if I find out, you will have to be beaten. So, I advise you to obediently take out your own things. This stealing other people's things is according to the national law of Changshun country, but you have to chop off your hands. "I glanced at the middle-aged man in front of me, and the more I looked at him, the more familiar it felt. I really haven't met this person, though.
"I said I didn't have anything in my arms. Why don't you believe it? I have an urgent matter, so I won't talk to you here. Let's talk again when we have time. The middle-aged man blew on the handful of white hair that had fallen from his head.
Hey? Why is this action so familiar? The white-headed horse flashed in my mind. Could it be that this is the white-headed horse in front of you?
"Hehe, this heavenly food seems to be full of aura, and it actually made you cultivate into a human form. But as the saying goes, dogs can't change their. I think you're going to have to cut off your hooves. I sneered twice at the middle-aged man.
"Oops! Grandpa Aoyama spares his life! I really didn't steal from anyone else. I don't believe you. When the middle-aged man shouted like this, I was even more sure that the one in front of me was the white-headed horse.
"You asked me to search? I didn't bother to touch your filthy body. Hurry up and get your stuff out! I glared and let out a loud shout.
"Guest, this person just passed by me, and my money bag is gone. He must have stolen it. The sheep seller ran to my side out of breath and said to me.
"Wronged! Grandpa Aoyama, I really didn't steal his money bag. The middle-aged man knelt down in front of me and shouted.
"You didn't steal his money bag, what are you running away? Hurry up and get your stuff out. Let me tell you, I just took the cow and sheep in this uncle's hand. I paid the money to this uncle. My money is all marked. If you fool around here again, you're welcome to blame me. "As soon as I grasped the oolong brake, I raised it and shook it.
"I was just worried that you would rely on me, so I ran. You ask this uncle to look for it again. Maybe his money bag was in another pocket. The middle-aged man squinted at me.
I noticed that the middle-aged man's eyes were erratic, always looking behind me. He threw the money bag on the side of the road.
"Uncle, look over there. I suspect this guy threw your money bag into the grass. I said to the uncle.
"Okay, oops! It's really here. The uncle looked in the direction of my finger into the grass and screamed.
"You're really good at hiding! If I don't break your leg today, I won't have a surname. "I raised the oolong brake and hit the middle-aged man's leg with a stick.
"Ahh I don't dare anymore. Grandpa Aoyama spares his life! The middle-aged man covered his thigh that I had beaten with a stick, and sat on the ground with a "cool pass" and begged for mercy loudly.
"Do you think I won't recognize you if you change your head? You shameless old horse, you will only harm people when you live. I think I'd better send you to tell stories to the souls of the Ten Thousand Demon Caves. I raised the oolong brake and smashed it on the middle-aged man's head.
"Bang--", the middle-aged man's head was smashed away by me. However, not a drop of blood was spilled. What's going on?
"Pounce--" The middle-aged man had no head, and another head came out of his body. When I looked, it was a horse's head, the head of the white-headed horse.
"I didn't expect you to have this kind of ability. I really underestimated you. "I raised the oolong brake again.
"Grandpa Aoyama, slow down, I have something to say to you." The white-headed horse put his hands on his head and said with his mouth open.
"How do you want to defend yourself? This man has all the stolen goods, and I think you are hopeless. I said to the bald horse.
"Well, guest, I think it's better to punish him a little. You beat him to death, but you're going to have to go through a lawsuit. "The uncle who sold sheep just now saw that I had knocked the head of the bald horse away, and his face was as frightened as earth, and when he saw that the bald horse was not dead, he quickly took my hand and persuaded me.
"Uncle, don't worry about it. Hurry up and take the money and go home. I still have old accounts to settle with this guy. I said to the uncle who sold the sheep.
"Grandpa Aoyama, you can't kill me. I learned something about you from the Celestial Realm. If you beat me to death, you'll never know about it. The white-headed horse shook the white hair on his head and said.
"I don't know anyone from the heavenly realm. What can the heavens have about me? Don't lie to me here. Suffer death. "I don't want to hear this bald horse say a word at all, pick up the oolong brake and hit it.
"Don't fight, don't fight! I knew I was wrong. I don't dare anymore. "The bald horse didn't expect me to be a person who doesn't eat oil and salt, so he covered his head and cried.......
"Guest, you better give him a chance to mend his ways. This man is not perfect. He may also be forced to be a thief. "The uncle who sold the sheep said good things for the bald horse.
"Uncle, don't talk to him anymore. This guy and I have known each other for a long time. Also stole things from my house. I taught you a lesson last time. This time he's stealing your money again. If you don't beat him to death, I don't know how many more people he will hurt. "I pushed away the uncle who sold the sheep and continued to beat the white-headed horse's leg with the oolong brake.
"I swear, I'll never do anything bad again. If I do anything bad again, I will be struck by thunder. The bald horse swore to the sky.
"You see he swore an oath. Just spare him this time. The sheep seller rushed up again and took my arm and said.
"Hmph--- okay. For the sake of this uncle's face, I will spare you this time. You get out of the cave of demons for me. If I find you wandering around the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons again. I will never spare you again. I kicked at the bald horse and said.
"Good, good. I immediately left the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons and never came back. The bald horse got up from the ground and limped away.
"Uncle, you must not be soft on this kind of person. Believe it or not, he's going to come back and do bad things. I said to the uncle who sold the sheep.
"Well--- I hope you're wrong. I don't see anyone being beaten the most. So, when I watched you beat him just now, I thought he was quite pitiful. The sheep seller said to me embarrassedly.
"Hurry up and count your money, is there any less?" I said to the uncle who sold sheep.
"Not less. I've just seen it. He must have met you before he could open the money bag. Thank you, guest. Tomorrow I will bring you two little lambs. The uncle who sold the sheep said.
"Hehe, you're too polite. Then I'll thank you in advance. I said to the uncle who sold the sheep.
"Huh? This guest, you have already sent home the cattle and sheep you bought? The sheep seller looked around me and asked.
"I put them at a friend's house first. I'll pick it up when I have time. Alright, you go home. I waved at the sheep seller, turned to the other side of the bun.
"What a strange guest! I just heard the sound of a cow and a sheep in his belly. Did he eat all the cattle and sheep? Could it be that he's a monster? I heard the sheep seller muttering to himself as he walked back.
I couldn't help but feel funny. It seems that tomorrow this sheep seller will be too scared to see me, and maybe he will not come at all.
"Lambie, you have people put these cattle and sheep in the pen." I came back to Blackwater Valley, took the sheep and cattle out of my bosom, restored them to their original state, and drove them to Lambber.
"Hehehehe, the patriarch really does what he says! I was thinking, why did you get these sheep and cattle down from above? I didn't expect that there was nothing to stop the patriarch at all. Lambber praised me.
"Lambber, you're laughing. I put a lot of effort into getting these cattle and sheep back. I said to Lambber.
"We have everything here now, it's a paradise on earth!" Lamber said happily.
"That's right. So we need to protect this place and not let the bad guys out there sneak in. I said to Lambber.
"You can rest assured about this. I see that those children have learned a lot of skills from your father, and there should be no problem protecting Blackwater Valley. Lambber said.
"There is a mountain beyond this mountain, and there are people on it. Lamber, you can't be careless. I have learned the skills of this immortal. That's no joke. We're not far from it! I said to Lambber.
"No, it won't. I think it's easy for you to deal with the immortals, patriarch. Where can this immortal go? Lambber said disdainfully.
"Lambber, so far, I've only encountered small characters in the gods. The real stakes haven't come out yet. So we must not let our guard down. I said.
"Really? Then I'll have to think about it. Patriarch, otherwise, I'll have them dig a cave next to Blackwater Valley and hide our grain inside. In case the gods really called. We can seal it up and open it when the gods are gone. In this way, there will be no food shortage. "Lambber's mind is spinning really fast. As soon as I alerted him, he came up with a new idea.
"That's for the best. This is going to bother you. I said to Lambber.
"Don't be polite to me. I'm going to call someone first. Keep busy with yours. Lambber waved at me and turned to leave.
I lay on the edge of the cattle and sheep pen that Lamber had made for a while, and when I saw that the calves and lambs were eating happily on the weeds on the ground, I walked home with confidence.
I had just walked to Bai Ying's door when I happened to meet Bai Ying coming out of the yard.
"Grandpa Qingshan, you're really busy right now! We live in the same yard, it's not easy to see you! Bai Ying glanced at me and said.
"Look at what you said. When I came back at noon, I saw you busy in the fields. So, it's not just me who is busy, everyone is busy. Blackwater Valley finally has a bit of a human appearance now, we should work harder. Otherwise, it's all likely just a passing cloud. I said to Bai Ying.
"I was bored, so I went to the field to clean up. It's not like you, you're busy with business. I feel like Xiu and I have been abandoned by everyone. Now each of you has something to do. It's just me and Xiu at home, with nothing to do. I'm getting hairy all over me. Bai Ying looked at me resentfully and said.
"Eh--- you and Xiu'er want to work, right? Okay, I'll find you both a job, okay? I looked at Bai Ying as if she was complaining about me, and quickly asked.
"What's the job?" Bai Ying didn't seem happy when she heard my words, and asked me rhetorically.
"Well--- that's right. I have just gotten two calves and twenty lambs from above. Or - how about you and Bai Xiu take care of those cattle and sheep? I said.
"Huh? Let Xiu'er and I take care of the livestock? Wouldn't that be too dirty? I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. Bai Ying said squirmingly.
"How dirty is that? Isn't it just to clean up the cattle and sheepfolds, clean up their excrement, and then feed them? You just have to be careful, and you won't stain your clothes. "I think Bai Ying is a little too hypocritical, and I feel a little unhappy in my heart.
"No, no, we can't do it. You'd better have someone else. As soon as Bai Ying heard my words, he immediately walked away from me.
"Hey---" I looked at Bai Ying's back and shook my head, thinking to myself, how could this mother and daughter be such people! What kind of work is this not done by people? I also pick and choose. Do not dry pull down.
"Ba'er, what are you doing?" My mother came out of the yard with a basket and asked me.
"Mother, I didn't do anything. I just got back from outside. Are you going to go out? "I asked my mother.
"I'm going to bring some food to your father and Qingshan Xiaobai. They don't come home all day, and they don't know what they're doing. Your dad doesn't care. But Qingshan and Xiaobai are growing their bodies, and if they don't eat well, their body bones will definitely not be able to bear it. My mother said.
"Let me see what you made for them?" I lifted my hand and lifted the handkerchief from the basket that hung from my mother's arm and looked.
"There's nothing good to eat. I just saw this basket of snacks on the table in the hall that I don't know who had sent them, just enough to take to them to eat. I tasted a piece and it tasted pretty good. Would you like to try it? "My mother asked me.
"Hehe, no need. Bring it to my father, and let them go. This is what the Lambers did. I've tasted it. It's too sweet for my liking. I said to my mother.
"Ba'er, I want to tell you something. I wonder if I'm too sensitive. I always feel that Bai Ying and Bai Xiu seem to be losing their temper in the past two days. Is there too many people in our family, and people have opinions? My mother whispered by the sleeve of my shirt and said to the base of my ear.
"Yes. I met Bai Ying just now and I thought she was unhappy. Maybe that's the case. As soon as I heard my mother's words, I suddenly felt a little disappointed. This Bai Ying and Bai Xiu also ate a lot of food at my house. Our family has only been at her house for a few days, and they are not happy?
"Otherwise, you go to Lamb and ask. Let's see if there are any other empty houses. My family moved there. After all, they are used to living alone. Aoyama and Xiaobai are too noisy. I think people are embarrassed to say what they have to say. Why don't we offer to move out of here. It's good for everyone. My mother suggested to me.
"Mother has a point. I'm going to ask Lambber. "As soon as I heard my mother's words, I felt that this matter couldn't be pushed back, and if I pushed it again, I really had something to do with Bai Ying's mother and daughter, and it would be even more difficult to talk to each other.
"Okay, go ahead and ask." My mom nodded to me and walked to my dad's training ground.
As I walked towards Lamber's house, I wondered where else I could build a house in this Blackwater Valley, and I couldn't help but see a collapsed house not far away. I sighed and shook my head, such a good house was ruined by those families! Why don't you --- me try, can you renovate these houses and make them into smaller houses, so that those poor families in Blackwater Valley can move here?
I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and waved my hand at the pile of rubble.
"Wow! Why are there so many beautiful yards here? "Suddenly, I heard someone shouting not far away.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that the piles of garbage were now neat rows of yards. I counted it, and there were more than 20 square yards. I clenched my fists with joy. Haha - I'm getting bigger and bigger!
"Patriarch, you made this again, right?" I was standing in front of the row of small courtyards, beaming proudly, and Lambber walked up to me and patted me on the shoulder.
"What's going on? Not bad, right? I just passed by here, and I saw that these collapsed houses were a pity, so I tried to renovate them. I thought, so many yards, enough for those who are not in good housing conditions, right? I said to Lambber.
"Patriarch, you are so great! I feel more and more like I have to look up to you now. Lambber looked at the courtyards and admired.
"Lambie, you can't do this. You're slapping my ass! This makes people gossip about you if they hear it. I said with a smile to Lamber.
"Hear it, hear it. What am I afraid of? I truly admire you. You've only been the patriarch for a few days, and you've turned Blackwater Valley upside down. Isn't this the work of a hero? I would also like to call on you to make a statue at the entrance to Blackwater Valley, so that future generations here will always remember your great deeds. Lambber said, looking up and holding his head up.
"Gotta get it, stop it, stop it. Lambie, your hat is too big to crush me to death. I said to Lambber.
"What's this? I'm sure you'll agree with me. Lambber nodded.
"I disagree. I've always liked to keep a low profile. If you get a statue out at the entrance and exit of Blackwater Valley, I think I'll have to hide at home every day and don't dare to come out to meet people. You might as well give up on this idea. I said to Lambber.
"I knew you would object. Still, it doesn't matter. I put the idea in a notepad first. Let's not do it now. Wait until someone else brings it up. Save people from saying it was my idea. Lamber took out a small notebook from his bosom and dipped his finger in saliva and wrote on the notebook.
"But, Lambie, I want to make a request to you. Can these yards be divided into my own yards? "I don't think if I don't say it now, I probably won't be able to say it later.
"You made it, and according to our rules here, these yards belong to you. You don't need to apply to anyone at all. Lambber said to me.
"So? All right. Lan Bo, I have to trouble you with one more thing, you go and count how many poor households we have here, see if these houses are enough, if they are not enough, I will try to get a few courtyards out. I said to Lambber.
"We only have a few here that are in poor condition. These yards are sufficient. But Patriarch, I want to make a request to you too. Can you give me the courtyard next to your house and let my family move next door to yours? "Lambber is really funny, and immediately follow my example and ask me.
"What's this? No problem. My family lives in the westernmost courtyard. Just move your family next door to mine. I said to Lambber.
"Okay, then I'll go back and pack my things now. I've heard from the former patriarch that the feng shui here is better than anywhere else. If we live here, we will definitely have a smooth ride. Lambber listened to me, turned around happily, and ran back.
"Lambber - don't forget to inform the poor households!" I yelled at Lamber's back.
"Got it. You can rest assured! Lambber replied.
