"I see"!The old lady Bai had a suddenly realized expression.

The reactions of the two old men were the calmest among the crowd, and they even sparked some "talks about gods and ghosts."

"Do you know why the stone village is called this name? There is not even a single hill nearby." Old man Bai, who rarely spoke, spoke first this time.He had no father or mother since he was 7 or 8 years old, and was raised by his great-grandfather. The old man told him many stories.

"I heard that there used to be a big bluestone house in the northeast of our village. If the people nearby wanted to use stones, they had to come here to get them. That's why it got such a name," Chu's father replied.

"More than that! You young people have forgotten these past events! Only us aboriginal old men know about it. If we don't tell you today, no one will know about it!"

This really has to start with the name of Stone Village, what Chu's father said is indeed half right.

It is said that there are indeed fewer people and more land in Stone Village.But why?

In addition to the fact that Shitou Village is the only piece of Tuozi land with a radius of hundreds of miles, the harvest is not as high as that of Dianzi land, the most important reason is: because people at that time believed that there were "gods" sleeping here.

Yes, everyone said that at that time: The gods who own the whole world come from the sky and sleep at the bottom of the lake.His five most loyal servants surrounded the lake and built five bluestone houses in the direction of the five elements and eight trigrams to guard the peace of this land.

These five servants were the earliest residents of Shitou Village. They settled down with one another, devoted themselves to their duties, and had no desires until the years brought five of them into the loess one after another.

"Thinking about it now, the monk I met should be the last one," the old lady Bai sighed.

yes!Those five people surrounded the Digong Lake, occupying that area, but the nearby villages have been multiplied from generation to generation, and the number of people is increasing.

When there are many people, there are all kinds of thoughts.Especially since the period of the Republic of China, everyone's awe of ghosts and gods has become less and less. In the end, everyone selectively forgot about Digong Lake and its guards.

But the teachings of the ancestors are still in our ears, and everyone is ruthless about their lives. There are really no people who dare to move here to live here blatantly. The nearby villagers will not come here as long as they have a choice.

"But the stone village is still built!" Chu Wu's curiosity reached its peak.

"That's right! Don't you realize that this small stone village has more mixed surnames than any nearby village?" Old Master Bai sighed.

Several people nodded.Although Shitou Village is small, there are indeed many surnames, such as Shan, Guo, Chu, Zhao, Wang, Tong,,,, "More than half of them are foreigners! They don't know these allusions, so they are complacent about the land here. Is it? Your first family is also an outsider, right?"

"Yes, the old Chu's family moved here, and I am the third generation." Chu's father nodded in agreement.

"Then grandma, what happened to the last person?" Chu Wu was most concerned about the origin of the red rope.

The old lady Bai immediately fell into memories: "At that time, your grandma and I were also children. Speaking of which, I was considered an outsider. I was sold to Qianjin Village by human traffickers with your grandma. The person who bought us was a bachelor. Your great-grandmother came back to be a daughter-in-law, which is fine for me. My mother and I followed that person and lived in the area behind Qianjin Village and in front of Shitou Village. We built two earthen houses for the landlord’s house. Niu, oh, you can’t be called a landlord at that time, hey! Anyway, it’s for people to graze cattle!”

Seeing that old lady Bai was talking about this topic, her tone became more and more serious, Chu Wu hurriedly took some Linghu water from the space, and let the old lady drink it, and then she slowed down and laughed.

Old man Bai patted his wife's hand, and the old lady started to talk.

"It's just that that person is unlucky. A few days after we came here, there was a plague here, but we didn't know that we lived alone! That person came into the village and said that he would get us some good things. Since then I never came back. Your great grandma and I were blinded at the time. We were orphans, widowed, unfamiliar with the place, and didn’t even dare to go out of the house. What could we do? We could only die where we were. I got up early, ran out of the fenced yard, and saw a monk lying at the door. Your grandma saw that she was a monk and was in danger, so she had nothing to worry about, so we helped him into the house , the person who brought water and food, somehow woke up, and as soon as the man woke up, he was going to go south, but before he left, he probably thought of our meal and promised us two things thing."

"Two things?" Chu Wu couldn't help but widen his eyes, this is really getting more and more mysterious.

"Yes! Two things. He was standing at the gate of the courtyard and asked your grandma: What do you want?"

"Then what does my great-grandmother want?"

"Your great-grandmother said: I am a woman who has been rich and honored, and has suffered a lot of crimes. If the eminent monk is merciful, please ask the eminent monk to pray for me in front of the Buddha to have clothes, support, and peace for the rest of my life! "The old lady Bai was talking, probably thinking of her mother, her eyes were a little moist.I think the scene at that time should be impressive, and she is also verbatim when she speaks now.

Grandpa Bai also quickly comforted his wife: "Mom, didn't she get what she wanted? Don't be sad!"

The old lady Bai settled her mood: "Yes, yes! At that time, the eminent monk said, this wish is not difficult, and you will be happy and smooth in the rest of your life! Then he gave your great-grandmother a talisman. Later, when your great-grandmother remarried, it was you The great-grandfather I met before, isn’t he a thoughtful person who can keep out the wind and rain? For me, this is not my own, but I have nothing to say, your great-grandmother still smiled before leaving. "

The whole family nodded. Chu's mother is quite familiar with her grandfather. If her mother hadn't revealed the secrets of the past today, she really wouldn't have noticed that his great-grandfather is a stepdad!

"After making the promise to your grandma, the eminent monk asked me what I wanted? I didn't know what gold was, and I didn't think about the lion opening his mouth. I just saw a red rope around his neck. The color is really disgusting. I was happy, so I asked him for it. The eminent monk gave me the red rope."

"Then the eminent monk didn't say anything at that time?"

"Say it," the old lady Bai cleared her throat, imitating the appearance of the person in her memory: "You really know how to choose. Forget it, forget it! I'll give this to you! It's probably impossible for me to come back with my bones. I will give this to you. I can protect you from disaster once, and I can also protect your descendants from disaster once. If you can get the whole world in the future, don’t be too greedy! Remember at that time, don’t let this The rope is separated from the world."

"Now that I think about it, that holy monk must be a living Bodhisattva! Everything he said came true. If it weren't for the red string, your grandma and I were sick when I was young. All the doctors said I wouldn't live to be thirty, but I'm not doing well now. Yes, it just heals without medicine."

"Grandma, then you still give this to me, no, you better take it with you!" Chu Wu was in a hurry.

"No, no, there is nothing wrong with what the holy monk said. This red rope has already helped me once, so it should be handed over to your younger generations. And didn't the holy monk say in the end, don't let the red rope be separated from the world?" I didn’t understand what was going on before, but now looking at Xiao Wu’s space, I finally understand the last sentence he said, this red rope should belong to Xiao Wu!”

"It's a pity! There are too few outsiders in Stone Village who know the whole story, and they are so bold! Once the holy monk left, all five bluestone houses were demolished, and they took the nickname of Stone Village. How many bluestone houses used to exist?" No one probably remembers it. Fortunately, the last trace of awe is still there, and I know that the underground palace lake cannot be touched, and I don’t know how many years this tradition can last?” Mr. Bai couldn’t help but sigh, scientific advocacy can’t be wrong, but Some things, if you don't have awe, are really scary.

The whole family nodded. The story of the two old people wiped away Chu's father's last worry.

Two days later, Jiang Mingrui returned to City B reluctantly.Chu Wu stays to talk to his family about moving.

Chuwen was still deprived of the right to attend the family meeting this time.

"No, no!" Chu's father firmly opposed the move.

"Why? Now your son and I don't talk about wealth. It's always right to have a little money. It's no problem to support you two."

"Your mother and I are not old now, but your grandma and grandpa are not too old now. Our whole family has gone to the city. Let us have nothing to do every day and not suffocate! Don't do it, don't do it! Besides, we are here Alright, I have hands and feet, old man, can I take care of you?"

This time, old man Bai, old lady Bai, and Chu's mother stood on Chu's father's line unanimously, nodding in agreement.For them, the high-rise buildings and indifferent neighbors in the city are not as good as those in the countryside.

In the end, the family negotiated again and again, each taking a step back, and agreed that they would not move until they graduated from junior high school.During this time, both Chu's father and Chu's Wu can have a good buffer.

As soon as the result came out, Chu's family returned to its former tranquility. This year happened to be the [-]th birthday of Chu's grandpa and grandma. After greeting Chu Wu with his family, he planned to go to Xuanning's chef rematch first, and then come back to do his best. Filial piety.

I have to say that Chu Wu's frank choice at this time was right, and what happened in spring taught Chu's father a profound lesson.

Otherwise, with his previous temperament, knowing that Chu Wu is rich, and his family background, his first reaction must be that Chu Grandpa and Chu Grandma's birthday banquets are all organized by himself.

But the current reaction is like this.

Chu's mother: "In this space, Mingrui said that if the matter is exposed, Chuwu will definitely be arrested and dissected, and by the way, it is impossible for Digong Lake to survive."

Chu's father: "Yes! Yes! I also know this, Boss Bai, I will definitely not say it."

First mother: "You can't give away things with space, remember? It's not good to save people! It's not good to do good deeds! Which secret have you seen that will never be guessed by people? You are a good person at the time. Sooner or later someone will find him on his head."

Dad Chu: "Okay, okay! I know which side hurts more"!

First-time mother: "When my parents celebrate their birthday, we will pay as much as the second child. At most, we can only pay a little more than them. Don't try to be brave. Sometimes it will be better if you work hard."

Chu's father: "Hey, I know!"

The first mother nodded.She is not obsessed with money, and Chu Wuyi confessed that their family does not lack this money, even if the second elder is partial and has no boundaries, as a daughter-in-law, she will not treat the second elder badly!

It's just that she discovered a few days ago that almost all the subsidies that their family gave to the second elder went into the pockets of Chu Aiguo's family. This time she was not happy, and gave money to Shan Yurong?She, Bai Haitang, would rather donate it to the disaster victims!
