Huangliang Inn

Qian Baolai harbored resentment, and was only one step away from the resentful ghost.It was all because of the last ray of warmth and the last ray of kindness in his heart that he was not driven by resentment and completely lost his sanity.

"I want the wicked to get retribution and let them die without a whole body. I want the good people to live. Even if the life span cannot be changed, at least they will not suffer so much."

Qian Baolai picked up the pipe that fell on the ground, wiped it with his sleeve, and held it to his mouth, taking two sips.

He has no incense for descendants, so naturally he has no offerings, and he cannot smoke ghost smoke.This dry pipe is transformed by ghost energy, taking two puffs is just a continuation of the habit of life and a dry addiction.

"I just wanted to kill those inhuman things as soon as possible so that my daughter-in-law can live in peace for a few days. There are also the captain and the women's director. They are good people and should not be treated like that."

Qian Baolai couldn't sit still, so he just squatted on the ground, taking a mouthful of cigarette holders.

"Do you know the consequences of taking the life of the living?" Yan Jue asked.

"I know, I have inquired about it in advance." Qian Baolai put away the dry pipe, put it back on his belt, stroked his two mustaches, and said with a grin, "Anyway, I don't want to reincarnate. Let my daughter-in-law live a good life for a few days, it's worth it!"

"it is good."

Yan Jue nodded with a slight smile, and took two wooden slips with his spiritual power.

Without any hesitation, Qian Baolai followed his instructions, released his ghostly aura, and made a deal face to face.

"Come with me."

Yan Jue sacrificed two spiritual powers, the stone beast in front of the door glowed, the door of the inn was closed, and an invisible barrier was raised to completely isolate it from the outside world.

Qian Baolai walked into the guest room on the second floor, looked at the screen and the wooden bed, feeling a little strange.Then he went to the bed and lay down. After the bell rang, he slowly closed his eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.

White smoke lingers on the top of Boshan stove, ethereal as yarn, dancing with the sound of bells.

Blurred traces appeared on the blank screen, and gradually connected together, becoming bright colors.

It was a village surrounded by mountains, with green mountains and green waters, fertile land, and golden rice growing all over the fields.

The clear river flows down the mountain, just passing by the village.The sun shone on the water, sparkling.

Occasionally, small fish swim close to the shore and are found by playful children. They cannot escape the siege of straw baskets and bamboo baskets, and are picked up one by one.

It rained last night, and there are quite a few small fish coming along the water, as well as crabs with green covers and transparent river prawns.

The children stepped into the water and moved the stones, as if they were looking for treasure, and cheered when they found something, having a great time.

At the end of the dirt road along the river, there was a burst of cheerful suona sound suddenly.The children were attracted and jumped onto the river bank one after another, looking in the direction of joy.

Under the big tree at the head of the village, five or six women started gossiping immediately when they saw the procession of welcoming the bride.

"It's Sun San marrying a wife!"

"Good guy, I heard that he borrowed a lot of food and money from Qian's family just to marry this daughter-in-law."

"The iron rooster of the Qian family?"

"I heard that Sun San's old lady, to save face, came to the door every three days, and mentioned the matter of Sun San's father in the early years. She opened and closed her mouth about her kindness to the Qian family, which made Qian Baolai's mother-in-law let go. That iron rooster was afraid of his wife, so he didn't say anything in the end. What."

The women talked more and more vigorously, from Sun San being lazy and stealing, to Sun San's mother being tricky and mean, to the relationship between Sun and Qian's family in the early years, and Qian Baolai's current property, their voices were inevitably sour.

"The three generations of the Qian family are just like ours. They are poor tenant tenants. How did they get rich in just two generations? Don't they have some shady means." A woman said maliciously.

"Qian Baolai's father ran goods with caravans in the south in the early years, and brought back a lot of oceans."

"Really?"

"Can there be fakes? All the old people in the village know. If there is no money, how can there be so many lands?"

"Father and son are not good people. They guard the gold and silver mountains. They eat and drink by themselves. They don't know how to support relatives. Although they have given five clothes, they are all surnamed Qian. His family has so much money and hundreds of acres of good land. I figured my man would do the hard work for him, but I didn’t see any extra money.” The woman bit off the end of the thread, carefully put away the needle, and shook out the newly mended clothes, feeling very aggrieved.

"Even if he has no heart, he will bring money into the coffin, but he will not take it out of others. He deserves to live six and die three, and the remaining three are sick and crooked, and sooner or later they will not be able to support them."

"I heard that he wants to send his children to the school in the county?" said a woman holding the soles of her shoes.

"It's not called a school now, it's called a school."

"Not all of them are the same." The woman said impatiently, "If you want me to tell you, we should talk to a few old people, we can't just go to school for the children of Tie Rooster's family, he is so rich, he should contribute to the village."

"Correct."

The women made up their minds in a few words, and they all decided that they should go to the village head and ask the Qian family to provide a sum of money to send their children to school.I didn't even think about whether this matter was reasonable or not.

Sun San married his daughter-in-law and held eight banquets at home.

People in the village like to join in the fun, so naturally many people come.

In addition, Sun San did a lot of stealing in his early years, and even harmed other people's rice fields and vegetable fields, which is really annoying.The past two years have been a little bit better, and what I have done will never be erased.Embracing a big meal, somewhat regaining some of the lost heart, many people come to eat together with adults and children, and the dishes that have just been served on the table can be wiped out in a blink of an eye.

Mrs. Sun was very proud at first, thinking that the banquet held by her family was very decent.Unable to bear the crowds, the tables were full, and there were women with large bowls, picking vegetables from the plates and handing them to the children who were guarding the table.

Seeing that the dishes were bottomed out, and there were still people urging them to add more rice and soup, no matter how reluctant Mrs. Sun was, she couldn't show embarrassment to others, so she could only endure the pain and serve a few more dishes, taking the opportunity to speak nicely to the people sitting at the table, so as not to cause any harm somethin'.

When the banquet was over, Sun San was anxious to enter the bridal chamber, but was grabbed by Mrs. Sun.

"Mom, what are you pulling me for?"

"No one from the Qian family came today." Old lady Sun said dissatisfiedly with a gloomy face, "Neither Qian Baolai nor Zhao Cui came, nor did the three short-lived bastards come."

"If you don't come, you won't come. I don't feel comfortable when that calf comes." Sun San pouted.

He knew that Mrs. Sun and Zhao Cui had borrowed money, and he also knew how to be decent today, but he just couldn't understand Qian Baolai.His father and Qian Baolai's own father had worked together, why did Qian Baolai have so many fields and livestock, and his family was so poor?

"You're stupid!" Mrs. Sun pointed her finger at Sun San's head, "If his family doesn't come, the gift money will be cut in half! I was thinking that if Zhao Cui could come today, I would take the opportunity to cry at her poorly. You don’t have to pay back the money you borrowed.”

When it came to money, Sun San finally stopped being impatient.

"Mom, is this really possible?" Borrowing money or not?

"Why not? His family is so rich, and they care about these three melons and two dates? Let me tell you, you and your wife said so, let her go to Zhao Cui..."

Mrs. Sun murmured in Sun San's ear, and the latter kept nodding, the corners of his mouth widening, his expression full of greed.

At this time, Qian Baolai was lying on the kang with a high fever. Zhao Cui sent the three children to go to bed early, and stayed by the kang by himself. Then wipe the palms and soles of the feet.

At midnight, a gust of cold wind rushed into the room through the cracks in the window.

The lights flickered, casting shadows on the walls.

Zhao Cui shivered, helped Qian Baolai tighten the quilt, quickly got off the floor to put on his shoes, and closed the windows tightly to prevent the cold wind from blowing in again, which would aggravate his condition.

Strange to say, after the gust of wind, Qian Baolai's fever gradually subsided.

When changing the towel for him, Zhao Cui tried the temperature of his forehead and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.Noticing that his eyelids were trembling, he tried to call out: "Master, master, wake up."

Qian Baolai slowly opened his eyes, seeing Zhao Cui's appearance, his eyeballs were motionless, his lips were trembling a little, as if he hadn't seen him for many years, his eye circles were red with excitement.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Cui was taken aback, moved the oil lamp in haste, and carefully tested his temperature, and said, "What's wrong? You said, don't do this, I panicked .”

"No, it's fine." Qian Baolai's illness was so severe that his life was hanging by a thread. He struggled through the gates of hell and took care of him for half a month.If not, he wouldn't be able to take the opportunity to possess himself.It's just that I haven't fully adapted to it yet, my limbs are stiff, and my hands and feet can't be controlled.

"Are you all right?" Zhao Cui was still worried, "Otherwise I'll let the elder and younger son go to the village doctor and I'll show you?"

"No, it's just a cold. It's fine if the fever subsides. There's nothing serious about it." Qian Baolai calculated the date, predicting that Sun Sanming would come to the door the day after tomorrow, and secretly sneered in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, and said to Zhao Cui, "I'm fine, just sleep. That's fine. Don't watch over me, go to bed early, it's a waste of fuel, I feel bad."

"No seriousness!" Zhao Cui yelled, seeing Qian Baolai's appearance, she knew that he should be fine.After three nights in a row, she really couldn't hold it any longer. She yawned, took off her coat, pulled away a corner of the quilt, and lay down directly.

"I'm sweaty, you're not comfortable relying on it." Qian Baolai said.

"I'm happy, my own man, I don't dislike it." Zhao Cui glared at Qian Baolai, and stretched out his arms to hug him, "It's cold in the night, don't worry if I sleep next to you."

Looking at Zhao Cui's black and blue eyes, Qian Baolai's lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything, he hugged Zhao Cui with his backhand, and closed his eyes hard, so as not to let her notice something wrong and find clues.

As the night passed, Zhao Cui seldom had a good night's sleep and got up late in the morning.The three children didn't wake up their parents, they had already lit a fire and cooked quickly, and even boiled hot water specially.

When the food was brought to the table, Qian Baolai looked at his wife and children as if in a lifetime, and his nose couldn't help but turn sour.

"What are you doing in a daze, let's eat." Zhao Cui filled several bowls of millet porridge, added half a spoonful of sugar each, and let the three children eat by themselves, but she was not in a hurry, picked up a spoon and prepared to feed it to Qian Baolai.

"I'll come by myself, you can eat too, don't wait until it's cold." Qian Baolai was already able to move freely, took the job bowl, and took a big gulp straight away.

"Be careful!" Zhao Cui hurriedly said.

"It's okay." Qian Baolai snorted and drank half a bowl of porridge, and just picked up a pickle with chopsticks, when he heard someone calling outside the window, "Brother Baolai, sister-in-law Dacui, are you awake?"

"Listen to this voice, is it Sun San?" Zhao Cui put down her chopsticks and was about to go down to open the door.

Qian Baolai held her back and asked her to continue eating, and did not let the three children move. He finished the rest of the porridge by himself, put down his chopsticks, and put on his shoes.

"Boss, you are just fine, be careful if you catch a cold in the wind." Zhao Cui said worriedly.

"It's not that expensive, don't worry." Qian Baolai put on his coat and said in a low voice, "What kind of temper is Sun San, he wants to take advantage of it. Don't let him into the house, otherwise the pot of porridge and steamed buns won't be enough for him .”

Zhao Cui burst into laughter.

Qian Baolai continued: "Isn't it because his father helped my father in the early years, so I can let you borrow money from his family? This person is good at pushing his nose and face. Listen to me, don't go out, just sit in the room."

"Success, listen to you."

Zhao Cui stopped insisting and sat on the kang to eat with the child.Qian Baolai walked slowly to the gate of the courtyard, opened the gate, but stood sideways in front of the gate, allowing Sun San to probe his head, but he was not allowed to enter the courtyard.

Sun San is a dog nose, and he smelled the aroma of steamed buns early.If Zhao Cui opened the door, she would definitely enter the room with a grimace.When he met Qian Baolai, he had to put his mind away.

This stingy man is so stubborn, it's really hard to get something out of him.Thinking of Mrs. Sun's order, I can't come here for nothing, I can only keep saying good things to pave the way for my daughter-in-law to come to Zhao Cui.In the middle of the conversation, he also mentioned his family's difficulties, which was not ordinary.

Qian Baolai watched him perform the monkey show, thinking of this beast leading someone to break his legs, his anger and resentment could hardly be controlled.He clenched his fists so hard that he didn't lose his composure on the spot.

"Speaking of ways to make money, I do have one, and it depends on whether you can work hard." Qian Baolai said mysteriously.

Sun San was obviously taken aback, looked at Qian Baolai suspiciously, not sure if what he said was true or not, and said, "Brother Baolai, can you talk to me?"

"Go up the mountain." Qian Baolai deliberately lowered his voice, and said, "There is a shortage of loggers in the old forest, and if you can recruit a strong labor force, this amount will be paid on the same day." Qian Baolai pointed out three fingers, "If you want to do it yourself, you can do it for a year. Get downhill and earn more."

Gudong.

Sun San swallowed.

"Really so many?"

"That's right." Qian Baolai squinted his eyes, his mouse hair slightly tilted up, with a cunning and treacherous look, "You borrowed a lot of food and money from my family in the first year, if you can find some more, our two families will The bill can be extended for a few days."

Sun San might not believe Qian Baolai if he said it would be written off.What he said made it more believable.

Sun San knew how hard it was on the mountain, and also knew that the harder it was, the more money he would earn.If I don't want to suffer, I can only look at it with greedy eyes.Qian Baolai's proposal made him envious, the introducer alone would get the money, and a fool would not do it!

"The woods we went this time were deep, and the old hunters didn't go there very often. It was really hard to find people. You have to be smart when looking for people." Qian Baolai added.

Hearing what he said, Sun San was even more convinced, and immediately said: "Brother Baolai, don't worry, I will definitely remember you when you support me this time!"

Seeing Sun San's excited face, Qian Baolai sneered in his heart, he knew this man's nature well, for money, even his own children could be pushed into the fire pit.The benefits this time are so great, in order to save time and earn more money, those "brothers" who will follow him as minions in the future will most likely be sent up the mountain.

Find them, and you'd better find them all.

When old acquaintances meet again, he will let those beasts have a good taste, what it feels like to live rather than die.
