To say that this thing is a self-defense weapon, I kind of disagree. With a stick like this, if it is stronger, it can break a person's body. How can it be used for self-defense?
Besides, you don’t plan to ask me to take it with you when you go out. Do you want to cosplay like an ascetic and carry a miniature version of the water and fire stick?
Zhang Wei, a steadfast comrade, quickly helped me ask what I was thinking at the moment, "Uncle, are you kidding me? With this stick, I can break two sticks in one breath, and I can also defend myself. I think it's pretty much the same as lighting a fire, except for the ability to see.
What’s the use?”
The next moment, Zhang Wei was not disappointed. Uncle Wu slapped him accurately on the back of his head.
"Ouch, uncle, you hit me on the head again!"
"You should be beaten. You know nothing. If I give you a piece of gold inlaid with jade, you can tell it is plastic or synthetic plexiglass. This is the inner world. Sanman, you can't tell what the pattern on it is, right?"
After Uncle Wu reminded me, I picked up the stick and looked carefully at the pattern on it. The more I looked at it, the more familiar it became. An answer had already emerged in my heart. I have to thank my grandfather for enlightening me and making me almost able to
I have a photographic memory of things related to yin and yang.
"Is it a ghost-killing spell? Uncle Wu's is not for beating people, but for beating ghosts?"
Uncle Wu expressed his satisfaction that I could recognize the thing on it. He nodded and took the stick from me with a smile. At the connection between the handle and the stick body, he pressed a switch with his fingers slightly.
The stick was actually broken in the middle. The upper part of the stick was sheathed and separated from the handle. Inside was a wooden dagger.
This sword is not very short at all, it is about the length of an arm, and it is also engraved with patterns. Compared to the curved surface on the stick, this flat sword body, I recognized at a glance that this was a ghost-killing curse.
It is much more powerful than the ghost-killing spell on a stick. It is said that a powerful person can use this spell to kill evil ghosts and kill the ghost king and fight evil corpses.
Zhang Wei also forgot to cry out the pain. He was attracted by this thing that looked like a stick with a sword inside. He wanted to take it and take a look at it, so he asked Uncle Wu to give it another slap in the face.
"Did you wash your hands after going to the toilet? Go away and play with yourself!"
With a backhand, he handed me the wooden sword and the stick scabbard, "Sanman, what's going on? Even the coffin guy spent five days working on it, and it cost me thirty-three thousand dollars to get it out."
My hands shook after hearing this. This thing is so expensive!
"Uncle Wu, I can't have this. It's too expensive."
Do you like it? I really like it, but one thing is that I am afraid that I will damage it by being careless, and the other is that I really can't afford it, let alone ask Uncle Wu to pay for it.
When Uncle Wu heard what I said, he immediately curled his lips and said, "You guys, don't get into trouble with me here. It's for you, it's for you. Who among us who enters the Yin-Yang Gate can't defend himself?"
Style, look at my cigarette pouch and pot, it’s much more expensive than yours. Your father helped me find it back then, so I’m returning the favor, what do you think?”
Regardless of whether what Uncle Wu said is true or not, I have to hold it now. I only bowed to Uncle Wu respectfully, "Thank you, Uncle Wu."
That guy Zhang Wei was squatting on one side, picking at the cracks in the bricks, and his whole body was filled with resentment. Uncle Wu and I had a tacit understanding and ignored him.
Uncle Wu took out his luggage from the house. Except for the large makeup box he used to put on Grandma Cai's makeup yesterday, there was only a small cloth bag, which could not hold two clothes.
When he was heading out the door, Uncle Wu already had the big lock in his hand and shouted to Zhang Wei inside, "Little calf, are you going to go or should I lock the house for you and look after my house?"
"Go, go, uncle, I'll go!" The guy was still angry in a second, and he jumped out with his bag.
We walked out of the village in a roundabout way, crossed the small bridge at the entrance of the village and turned to the right. Two miles further on this road is a large highway, where we can take long-distance buses.
When I was crossing the bridge, I inadvertently glanced under the bridge. There were ashes of burned paper money there. It must be where Ye Xu was buried. It must have been the burning paper when his family held a road festival to summon the souls.
Uncle Wu and Zhang Wei were obviously more ambitious than me. They didn't even look over there and walked forward with long strides. Zhang Wei couldn't hold back his words and asked curiously, "Uncle, what are we doing this time?"
Should we go to the county town or the provincial capital?"
"provincial capital."
"It's going to take a long time by car. What's the provincial capital like? What are we going to do? Where to stay? How many days will it take to get back?"
As soon as Uncle Wu responded to him, the kid was like a hundred thousand people and started asking questions non-stop. Not to mention Uncle Wu, even I felt my head hurt hearing this.
"Snapped……"
"Ouch!"
Sure enough, this chat ended with this familiar sound, and the world finally returned to peace.
The provincial capital, I am no stranger to that place. After all, I spent three spring and autumn years there and never left. Even during the Spring Festival when everyone reunited, I was alone in the school dormitory in silence.
gnawing on cold steamed buns.
The workers in the school cafeteria were already on vacation at that time, so they had no choice but to spend their days like this.
Standing under the license plate next to the asphalt highway, I looked at the station names on the plate. To be honest, I, a person who has been out for three years, have only taken this long-distance bus twice, once when I left that year, and once not long ago.
I received the news that my grandpa passed away.
That's all!
Uncle Wu put down the things in his hands, and when Zhang Wei wanted to sit on the makeup box, he directly raised one leg and kicked him away, "You bastard, this is my job, you still want to give up?"
Damn, I’m so damn tempted to take you, you bastard, out to find your own fault!”
I don’t sympathize with Zhang Wei at all on this matter. The most valuable thing for a makeup artist is the weapon for self-defense. The other is this makeup box, plus a compass. It’s all fate. Zhang Wei actually wants to sit on it.
Uncle Wu was not impatient, he was already considering the blood relationship.
"I...I don't know, uncle, don't be angry!" Zhang Wei is a guy who is used to making decisions according to the circumstances. Seeing how cold-hearted Uncle Wu was, he knew he had made a big mistake, so he apologized obediently.
Uncle Wu ignored him and turned to look at me, "Sanman, this time we and I are taking on a big business from a noble family, and the profits are very rich. But I think it's not easy to do it. When the time comes, I think it will be done."
No, I’ll give you a wink, and we’ll leave, but we can’t make any mistakes, you know?”
I understood and nodded. You noble man, this profit is the reward. As the saying goes, money can make all the difference, but you have to have the life to spend it. Now I am very worried about Uncle Wu's words.
I am convinced that I am right to listen to him on these matters.
The car arrived quickly, and the three of us got on the car. There were not many people on the car, maybe because it was too early, and today was not a weekend, so people who went to school and worked didn't have time.
Not counting the three of us, there were only seven people in the car including the driver. Uncle Wu started to frown after getting on the car and stopped at the door. The conductor shouted impatiently, "What are you doing?
Whether you want to walk or not, if you want to go up, hurry up. If you don't want to go, don't waste your time. There is still a long way to go!"
