Taboos in the Underworld: Starting from being paid a lot of money to beg for a child

After a lot of pushing from the senior sister, the master finally woke up.

After waking up, the master asked for some water, and the senior sister poured him a cup of hot water.

And he handed the biscuits that had been prepared nearby to Master to eat.

The master just smiled, took the biscuit and started eating it.

"Master, time has passed, is everything okay?"

I saw that Master was awake and asked quickly.

Master said while eating biscuits and drinking water: "I don't know either."

Everyone knows that doctors do not heal themselves. Similarly, people who are proficient in divination cannot make divination for themselves, because no matter how they divine, they will not be accurate.

So I don’t have the slightest doubt that he doesn’t know what Master said.

"No matter what, it's better to be cautious. Master, just stay in bed today and don't go anywhere."

I said and walked out. As I was leaving, I heard Master say:

"Wen Jing, give me another glass of water. My throat is so dry."

After I left the door, I walked towards the village down the mountain.

My senior sister and I both had the same dream. Maybe it was God’s mercy and gave us a way to solve it.

Although the chances are slim, we have to give it a try.

I bought two big roosters from a fellow villager for 200 yuan.

What puzzled me was that when I passed the door of the fellow villager's house, these two big roosters stood there quietly, and they would not run away even if I walked past.

And what’s even more bizarre is that these two big roosters are very similar to the two big roosters that appeared in my dream.

After I bought the cock, I felt even more that maybe this was God’s mercy. The more I thought about it, the more excited I became.

While walking, when they were only a few hundred acres away from Master's house, the two roosters that had not moved much at first suddenly began to struggle together.

This sudden struggle caused me to lose one of them before I could catch it.

How could I let them run away? I pointed them at Master to prevent disaster.

I don’t know why, but the rooster, which was originally very honest, suddenly ran very fast.

It ran up and down the mountain for a long time. I chased it hard but couldn't catch it.

This rooster is very cunning, I chase it and run away.

It stopped when I stopped, always keeping a moderate distance from me.

Just like the moon in the mirror, you can see it but cannot catch it.

What's even worse is that the direction it ran was the opposite direction from Master's house.

One person and one chicken, one chasing and the other running. After struggling for more than half an hour, I was getting further and further away from Master's house.

Finally, I had no choice but to see four or five teenagers skipping rope not far away.

I shouted to them that I would give 100 yuan to anyone who helps me catch this rooster.

With the temptation of money, they naturally became motivated. Several people chased around the chicken, and finally caught the chicken after it couldn't run away.

This period of tossing was killing me. It took me so long not to mention it, and it almost exhausted all my energy.

When we returned to Master's house, the sun was almost setting.

“Why does it take so long to buy two chickens?”

The senior sister asked doubtfully.

I looked at Master who was sitting on the bed. He was fine.

Then I breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"It's okay, there was a little accident."

"Go and kill the chicken. We'll start cooking at eleven o'clock, and we'll toast to celebrate as soon as twelve o'clock passes."

The senior sister said with a smile, with a hint of reluctance in her tone.

I hummed, turned around and walked to the kitchen.

After struggling for a long time, the two dogs were also held by my feet and walked for a long time. They had long since lost the strength to struggle.

I threw them in the bamboo frame and went to fetch water to boil a pot of water.

I don't know what happened, but the hand-operated well pump would not produce water no matter how much I cranked it. No matter how much water I put in, it would not produce water.

There is only one well nearby.

After struggling for more than half an hour, the water was finally shaken out.

Boil the water and start killing the chicken.

Killing a chicken is a simple matter.

He grabbed the chicken's head, pulled off the feathers on its neck, and slit its throat with a kitchen knife.

The main artery in the neck was cut, and he took a bowl to catch the blood. After a while, the chicken died.

After the chicken has stopped breathing, scald it with boiling water. After scalding, the chicken feathers can be easily pulled out.

It was already after nine o'clock in the evening after this ordeal, and at this time, the master was still safe and sound.

My mood is getting better and better, and I am even busy humming a tune in the kitchen.

After cutting the chicken, wash it and put it in the kitchen.

I walked to Master's room and looked at Master who was still healthy. I was extremely excited. There were only two hours left, and in two hours it would be the [-]th!

"Junior brother, thank you for your hard work. The day will be over in two hours." Senior sister said with a smile.

Ten o'clock passed safely and we were all very excited.

At eleven o'clock, my senior sister and I left Master's room, because in the dream we cooked together, she lit the fire and I cooked.

Now that we have followed the instructions in the dream, we might as well do it more thoroughly.

Moreover, it is of no use for the senior sister to stay with the master. This will also make the senior wife unable to talk to the master properly.

"Junior brother, there is no firewood. Go upstairs and throw down some firewood."

The senior sister looked at the stove and saw that all the firewood had been used up while I was boiling water.

"Okay" I said and turned around and left the main room.

The firewood placed on the second floor is split tree trunks. This kind of firewood is easy to burn and the fire is strong.

To get to the second floor, you have to climb up the wooden ladder.

The wooden ladder is set up on the middle wall on the right side of the main room, and the door of the master's bedroom is also on the right.

I looked at the wooden ladder, still worried about what might happen.

But then I thought about it, it was me who was climbing, not Master.

Even if it falls, it has nothing to do with Master.

The moment I climbed up the wooden ladder, my legs were actually shaking. I was a little exhausted from all the hard work this day.

I relied entirely on my inner joy to support myself.

As long as Master is fine, I can do it no matter how tired or disabled I am.

Climbing up to the second floor, I grabbed a few pieces of firewood and threw them on the cement floor of the main room.

The firewood fell to the ground and made a loud noise. The senior sister quickly walked out of the kitchen and said:

"Be gentle, be gentle, why are you making such a big noise?"

I chuckled and said:

"No idea."

The senior sister climbed to the middle of the stairs and said:

"You hand it to me and I'll just put it on the ground."

When I handed the firewood to my senior sister, the master walked from the room to the door. The senior sister turned to look at the master and said:

"Master, don't come out and go in quickly."

Master looked at us with a smile and said:

"It's okay. I drank too much water and I really can't hold it in any longer. Please be careful."

The firewood was very heavy, and the senior sister's position was low. I didn't have much strength to begin with. When I was holding the firewood with one hand and holding the wooden ladder with the other while bending down to pass the firewood, my legs kept shaking. The senior sister was busy talking to the master, and there was nothing. Take the firewood from my hand.

Just when the senior sister and master finished talking and turned to pick up the firewood, my head suddenly went dark and I couldn't control my body and fell down.

I instinctively grabbed the wooden ladder. There was a dull friction sound between the wooden ladder and the wooden board on the second floor, and I slowly slid to the right.

"Ahhh"

The senior sister standing on the stairs screamed in surprise, and the master who took two steps turned back to look at us, and quickly ran over to hold on to the wooden ladder.

But it was too late. The wooden ladder carried me and my senior sister at a very sharp angle, and it had already fallen towards the door of Master's room.

When I saw Master coming, I screamed in my heart. If Master didn't get out of the way, I would definitely hit him. In desperation, I kicked my legs hard, as if I was freeing myself from a wooden ladder.

That height can't be said to be high, nor can it be said to be low.

I fell directly to the ground with a "bang". Fortunately, there were two bags of rice over there, which gave me a lot of cushion.

But what I didn't expect was that I didn't hit the master with such force.

But the senior sister who was on the wooden ladder fell over even faster after receiving my kick.

The master wanted to catch the senior sister, but with my help, he failed to catch the senior sister. Instead, the senior sister hit him hard.

With two "bang bang" sounds, the wooden ladder fell to the ground.

The senior sister's body collided directly with the master. The master was so bumped by the senior sister that he couldn't help but took two steps back and hit the wall behind him.

The position where the master retreated and hit was exactly where the door edge of the hall came into contact with the wall after the main door was opened.

I looked at Master worriedly, and he still had a kind smile on his face.

The master didn't retreat very quickly, so it shouldn't be a big deal.

I looked at the senior sister again. The place where the senior sister fell was not high, so there should be no problem.

I breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed my red and swollen knees, struggled to stand up and tried to help Master.

The master's wife also walked out of the room. When she saw the master standing on the wall, her face suddenly calmed down and slowly became extremely sad.

Looking at the expression on the master's wife's face, I felt that something was wrong.

Tiedan and Yadan also came out. They looked at Master, and then rushed towards me and senior sister respectively with their mouths open as if they were crying, as if they saw something that was difficult to accept or terrible.

I became even more confused. Isn’t Master a good person?

Why do the three souls look like this? And there is nothing behind the master.

Because half of Master's body was pressed against the door, and half of his body was pressed against the wall.

The wall was an earthen wall and the door was a wooden door. There was nothing particularly sharp or hard about it. Besides, the master didn't retreat very quickly.

But their expressions made me deny my judgment.

I pushed Tiedan away and ran towards the master.

The senior sister also woke up. She got up from the ground and ran towards the master.
