The elder sister looked at the old man in the room with some embarrassment, and then looked at me, but also hesitated to speak. I knew what the elder sister was saying, so I waved my hand to indicate that she didn’t need to say anything, I understood.

Then I turned my eyes to Chongxi, and Chongxi understood. He took out his slingshot again and asked: "You three are willing to continue to accompany the old man to spend time..." Before Chong Xi finished speaking, the old man's voice sounded again in the room, but this time the voice was particularly clear. , "No need. I have been reluctant to leave. In fact, it is because I am waiting for you. I don't know when it will start. The people Taoshu is waiting for have become the people I am waiting for. Decades have passed, and it is time for me to leave. !" With that said, the old man walked out of the house, carrying a small baggage used by ancient people on his shoulder.

I quickly stepped forward and asked: "Old man, what are you..." The old man smiled at me and said, "My children are not free. My grandchildren have grown up, and I will go to them. This old man It’s time to demolish the house!” He said, holding on to a stick and heading out. I hurriedly caught up and asked, "Do you know where your grandchildren are?" The old man didn't even look back and said, "I'll go and find out!" I quickly stopped him and said, "Hey, old man, the world has changed. , where are you going to find out? If you think this is a good idea, just do what I just said and let them build this old house for you again. You can come and live in it after it is built."

The old man turned around and pointed behind him in confusion and said: "What about the corridor in the middle of my room? Everyone who goes to the street in the north has to go here..." I quickly said: "I'll have someone build it into cement." Road." The old man nodded.

A special feature of the old man's house is that the hall in the middle has become a passing country road and is generally public. I really didn't expect that the old man was still thinking about this, thinking that after the courtyard was demolished, the road would be gone, and people coming and going would have to take a long way around.

When the old man heard my straightforward promise, he asked doubtfully: "Are you talking about being in charge?" I nodded repeatedly: "In charge, in charge! Of course I am in charge! I... I have money!" In desperation, I can't think of any other words to say, I can only pretend to be a blank check. Unexpectedly, the old man was quite shrewd. He looked up at the others and asked, "Really?" Everyone present nodded quickly, "Really!" Then the old man smiled and said, "That's good!" But then he thought of something again and asked: "Well, let's talk about the house, where will I live?" I blinked, thinking of the Taoist priest, and turned to look at him. The Taoist priest suddenly woke up and quickly raised his hands and said: "Stay at my place, stay at my place!" The old man suddenly looked confused: "Where do you live?"

The Taoist priest patted his chest: "Their developer invited me to come and booked a hotel for me. Let's ask them to build the house for us when they are ready, and then pick you up!" The old man then smiled and said, "Oh, then Sorry, Taoist!" The Taoist hurriedly waved his hand: "You have become a poor Taoist! Please, old man!" With that, he invited the old man out of the door.

We all followed and sent the old man out of the door. The old man took my hand and said, "Do you know how to thank you? You also paid for my old man to build a house and build a Taoist temple..." I smiled and said : "What's there to thank you for? You've been helping us take care of these three worthless trees for so many years. This is how we repay you!" The old man chatted with me, "Oh, what a waste tree! What a waste!" The flowers are blooming in spring, so beautiful!" I nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, you are always right."

The Taoist priest walked in front and said, "You can get in my car." Lin Feng smiled and said, "Haha, you don't come here on a bull like your ancestor, right?" The Taoist priest was stunned, "I... ." Speechless. Apparently this Taoist priest has also read "Water Margin".

At this time, the onlookers were already on three floors inside and three floors outside. When they saw the old man walking out of the door with his baggage, they immediately started talking. "Hey, the old man is out." Then someone replied: "Yeah, it's been several days and I haven't seen the old man out." Then someone asked: "Then what does the old man eat?" Some people also wondered. He said: "Every day I see an older girl cooking for him, and I don't know where she is." We all smiled and said nothing, and sent the old man to the Taoist priest's car. The Taoist priest walked up to me and said, "How offended I am." I shrugged and smiled and said, "It doesn't matter." The Taoist priest saluted me and asked, "I just heard from the Heavenly Master that the little brother's name is..." I cupped my hands and answered, "Murong Shiyan."

Hearing my name, the Taoist priest suddenly took a breath of cold air. I smiled and asked, "Why, does the Taoist priest know about me?" The Taoist priest asked tentatively, "My little brother's surname is Murong, and Murong Hai is..." I nodded and said, "Father." Then, I pointed. Pointing to the elder sister behind him, he said: "This is my sister, Murong Qinglan." The Taoist priest hurriedly saluted, but the elder sister snorted coldly and ignored him.

Looking back, the Taoist priest said: "It seems that this poor Taoist is really trying to do what he does best. It's ridiculous." I waved my hand and then thought of something, so I asked: "Taoist Priest, I think the Tianshi Talisman you just played is not Did you draw it?" The Taoist priest looked embarrassed and said, "To be honest, there are only three talismans, and they were handed down from my ancestors." I nodded, feeling a little apologetic in my heart. My dear, my sister and I have ruined more than half of this family heirloom. I think Zhang Tianshi should have known what happened to us when the Taoist priest played the first Tianshi Talisman. Otherwise, Zhang Tianshi would not have come here because of my words, "Tianshi, I'm offended."

The Taoist priest sighed and said: "You are right, my magic is indeed inherited from Longhu Mountain. My ancestors left Jiangxi many years ago." I nodded, "Yes, now Longhu The mountain is a scenic spot, not a fairy mountain." The Taoist priest nodded.

Before leaving, the Taoist priest asked me: "Can you make the decision regarding the demolition team?" I knew he was talking about building new houses for the elderly. So I waved my hand and said, "Don't worry, let's go do it." Although the Taoist priest hesitated, he drove the old man away in his car.

After the Taoist priest left, I turned around and waved to the onlookers: "Okay, there's no fun anymore, let's go! It's gone, it's gone!"

After the crowd of spectators dispersed, Xiaobaihua asked me: "What should we do?" I glanced at her and smiled. Then he turned to look at Chong Xi and Lin Feng, who made a clear expression. The elder sister and others all looked puzzled, not knowing what we were planning.

I walked up to the workers of the demolition team and asked, "Who is in charge?" A short, fat middle-aged man wearing a hard hat came over and said with a stiff neck, "I am the contractor here. What do you do?" I I rolled my eyes and thought to myself that these demolition guys really thought they were the bosses. So I sneered and asked, "If I ask you to demolish this yard and build a new one so that the old man can live back, will you be able to make the decision?"

The foreman was stunned for a moment by my question, and then burst out laughing: "Who do you think you are?" I looked at him expressionlessly and asked, "I'm asking you if you can make the decision." The foreman smiled playfully and said, "Yes. Ah. I can make the decision. I won't agree!" I nodded and said "Oh", then raised my hand and said "Pah!" A big-ear message hit the contractor's face, and then continued to say in a pretentious manner: "What on earth are you doing? You can be the master, but you can’t be the master?”

The foreman was shocked by my slap, and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: "Fuck them!" As he said that, a group of workers wearing safety helmets surrounded him. Lin Feng blinked his eyes and looked at the dozen or so workers, who were tall and thick, and said, "Have you ever played... Stacking Arhat?"

Twenty minutes later, Lin Feng sat on the stacked arhat, lit a cigarette, and looked at the foreman who was completely frightened. At this time, the foreman was trembling all over, grinning and about to cry without tears. The grin that originally looked like 80,000 yuan is now as big as 8:30. I asked again: "Are you in charge?" The contractor took out his cell phone from his pocket shivering, pointed at my nose with one finger and pretended to be vicious: "Don't be arrogant! I'll call the police!" Chong Xi At this time, he yawned and said, "Don't bother, we are from the criminal police team."

The foreman shuddered, but still made the call. A young man's voice rang on the other end of the phone: "Hello, Wuzhong County Police Department." Just as the contractor was about to speak, I reminded him: "My name is Murong Shiyan." The contractor nodded subconsciously, and then faced The caller said: "Police, we are from the construction team. We were beaten here, and the one who beat us was Murong Shiyan!" The other end of the phone pondered for a moment, and then said something. The contractor was stunned again and handed the phone to me, "He... wants to talk to you."

I smiled and took the phone, only to hear the voice on the other end of the phone say: "Hello! Brother Yan?" I said "hmm". The person on the other side hurriedly asked: "Brother Yan, I am Xiao Wang. What's going on?"
