Reading: Beginning as the Dean of the Academy

Chapter 80
"Brother, sit down."

Chen Jingsheng's arrival eased the atmosphere a little, but at the moment Chen Jingsheng didn't put all his thoughts on talking.

"I'm going out for a cigarette."

"Don't bother, there are ashtrays here."

"No, it's better to smoke at the door."

In normal times, Chen Jingsheng would definitely agree, but smoking was just an excuse, he wanted to prove one thing.

Holding a cigarette and walking to the door, Chen Jingsheng took a deep breath, as if something terrible was waiting for him outside the door.

Taking a step forward, Chen Jingsheng's back suddenly bent a little, which made the smile on his face turn bitter again.

Sure enough, it didn't disappear, but because that thing didn't enter Zhang's house.

Why didn't that thing dare to enter Zhang's house?

What item does the Zhang family have that scares that thing?
Chen Jingsheng took two puffs casually and then put out the cigarette, turned around and walked back into the room, his eyes began to look around.

The house of my brother and sister has two bedrooms and one living room, about 70 square meters. The house is not too big, so many places are full of things.

Many daily necessities, including those furniture, are also available in my own home. It is obviously not these items that make these things afraid.

"Could it be in the room of my younger siblings or my niece?"

Chen Jingsheng was a little embarrassed. It was not easy for a grown man to enter the room where the mother and daughter lived. Even if he was an elder, he still had to avoid suspicion.

But if he didn't figure it out, he really wouldn't be reconciled, and he was really tortured by that thing during this period of time.

Half a month ago, Chen Jingsheng had a dream. He dreamed that a ghostly thing was pressing on his back, which made him completely paralyzed.

Waking up from the nightmare, Chen Jingsheng was glad that it was just a dream, but when he went to work the next day, he felt some discomfort in his back, so he went to a physical therapist for acupuncture.

Not only did it have no effect at all, but the pressure on his back increased the next day, which made him a little scared. Could it be that the dream was real, and there was really something on his back?

To be honest, that is to say, he was supported by strong perseverance. If it were any other person, he would have been completely hunchbacked by the pressure.

Right now, he is walking with an object weighing tens of catties on his back, and the weight is getting heavier every day.

Chen Jingsheng knew clearly that he might not be able to last long if this went on.

However, he couldn't tell others about this kind of thing, not even his own family members. He was afraid that this matter would bring fear to his family members, and he was also afraid that after the family members knew about it, that ghost thing would harm his family members.

Of course, he didn't do nothing during this period of time. He also went to some temples and Taoist temples secretly, and even donated money to ask for a safe talisman, but it didn't work at all.

I also consulted some so-called masters, but they couldn't solve it. They just said that they were probably entangled by the kid.

What do you mean you need to tie the bell to untie the bell? If you want to untie the bell, you have to know why the little ghost entangled you?

Every time he heard these remarks, Chen Jingsheng was speechless. If I knew, would I still need to come to you?

Unable to find a solution, Chen Jingsheng was already in despair, and even prepared for the worst. When the year was over, he would move to his work unit to avoid hurting his family.

Unexpectedly, just after he despaired, there was a glimmer of life again.

"Qingqing, I heard from your mother that you are planning to take the teaching editor exam, which is fine. Let me see what books you read?"

Chen Jingsheng found a reason, but Chen Qingzhi went into his room without thinking too much about it, and took out a few books dedicated to teaching and editing that were placed on the desk.

"Yes, just read these books."

His eyes only stayed on the book for a while, Chen Jingsheng quickly glanced at his niece's bedroom, there was nothing special, which made him frowned.

It's easier to talk about entering the niece's room, but it's really embarrassing for him to enter the room of his younger brother and sister who have divorced his younger brother.

But if he didn't figure it out, he wouldn't be reconciled.

"Chen Jingsheng, this is a matter of life and death, why do you care about your face!"

Puffing himself up in his heart, Chen Jingsheng came up with an idea, took out his phone from his pocket, clicked on the alarm clock software, and set an alarm.

When the alarm rang, Chen Jingsheng pretended to glance at the screen, walked out of his niece's room, opened the opposite door, and walked in.

"Hey, leader..."

Chen Jingsheng's voice was amplified on purpose. Chen Qingzhi saw his uncle walking into his mother's room, but he didn't think much about it. He just thought it was his uncle who answered the phone call from the leader, and some things were inconvenient to say when there were many people.

"Leader, the thing is like this..."

While talking nonsense, Chen Jingsheng quickly looked around the bedroom, but he still didn't find any special places or special objects.

This confused Chen Jingsheng. Could it be that the kid was not afraid of something in the room, but because of people?
But the Zhang family are ordinary people just like myself, the kid is not afraid of his own family, there is no reason to be afraid of the Zhang family.

What is the reason?
"Uncle, are you okay?"

Chen Qingzhi frowned when he saw his uncle coming out of the bedroom, and asked with some concern.

"It's okay, I just took a call from the leader."

Chen Jingsheng, who returned to the hall, kept looking at Chen Qingzhi's two uncles. Even if he thought it was impossible, he still wanted to try.

"Qingmin, you work in the Finance Office, right? Your director and I have a good relationship. I just want to call your Lei Institute to talk about something. Come with me."

Chen Jingsheng's words made Zhang Qingmin stunned for a moment, what do you mean, calling our director and calling me, is this trying to connect me?
"That's a good thing. It just so happens that Qingmin has a good relationship with their boss."

Seeing her husband in a daze, Chen Qingzhi's second aunt immediately pushed her husband. No matter what Qingqing's uncle wanted to do, it was definitely a good thing for her husband.

Chen Qingzhi's second aunt thought very clearly. This time the Chen family brothers came together, there must be something important, and depending on their attitude, they might ask to come to their Zhang family. It's good.

Regardless of what you ask for, whether you agree or not is a later matter, but if there are benefits, don't take it for nothing.

And she estimated that this matter is likely to have something to do with her sister-in-law and niece Qingqing, they are at most just a reference.

Chen Jingsheng led the bewildered Zhang Qingmin to the door. As soon as he went out, he felt the pressure reappear, and Chen Jingsheng had a look of disappointment on his face.

Wrong guess, Zhang Qingmin is not the one to scare the kid.

However, this call still had to be made. He had a really good relationship with Director Lei, and after exchanging pleasantries on the phone, he mentioned Zhang Qingmin.

"What is this for?"

Seeing that Chen Jingsheng turned off the phone and didn't allow himself to speak to the director from the beginning to the end, Zhang Qingmin was full of doubts. It was necessary to go to the door to make a call just like this, and I was not allowed to speak.

If you, Chen Jingsheng, want to deliberately show off your connections, wouldn't it be better to fight in front of everyone in the lobby?

Back in the hall, Chen Jingsheng found the same reason after a while, called Zhang Qingguo to the door, and performed the same operation.

Looking at the rest of Zhang Qingmin's daughter-in-law in the hall, Chen Jingsheng was really in trouble this time. First of all, he didn't know which unit Zhang Qingmin's daughter-in-law worked in, and secondly, even if he knew, he couldn't call other people's daughter-in-law to the door alone. go.

If you really want to do this, the brothers of the Zhang family don't turn their faces in person.

Helpless, Chen Jingsheng could only suppress his emotions and started chatting about homework. When Chen Jingjun and his wife saw their elder brother and never mentioned the matter of letting Qingqing go home for the New Year's Eve dinner, they couldn't help feeling a little anxious and wanted to speak several times, but They were blocked by Chen Jingsheng's eyes.

After eating enough, the old god Chen Jingsheng was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and even watched the news broadcast, which made the Zhang brothers who had stayed at the sister's house and wanted to see what happened to the Chen family couldn't sit still .

Seeing that it was getting late, the Zhang brothers had no choice but to get up and leave.

"It's getting late, so we're leaving too."

Seeing that the Zhang family brothers and the Zhang family's daughter-in-law were about to leave, Chen Jingsheng slowly stood up, which made Chen Jingjun and his wife even more confused. At first they thought that their eldest brother was afraid that the Zhang family brothers would block them and wanted to wait for the Zhang family Let's talk about things after the brothers leave.

But now the brothers of the Zhang family are leaving, and the eldest brother is also leaving. What kind of medicine is this sold in the gourd?

Chen Jingsheng didn't care what his younger brother and younger siblings were thinking, even if he knew it at this time, he didn't care.

"Okay... Qingqing and I will see you off."

Zhang Qingxia also felt that something was wrong with her eldest brother today, but she could only bury her doubts in her heart, stood up and sent everyone out.

Chen Jingsheng deliberately let himself walk behind the Zhang family brothers, but unfortunately the end result was still the same, he felt the pressure as soon as he went out.

Chen Jingsheng was going crazy at this moment, he really wanted to say that he would stay here tonight, but he really couldn't say it.

"Hey, why is it hot in the back?"

Because Chen Jingsheng retreated subconsciously at the door, Chen Jingjun, who was following behind him, took a step back to the side of the door, just hitting the door wall.

Chen Jingjun's exclamation made everyone look at him, and Chen Jingjun himself turned to look at the door wall, and reached out to touch the Spring Festival couplets on the wall in doubt.

"It's strange, why are the Spring Festival couplets still hot? It can't be that the circuit inside is aging."

"Circuit? No, there is no circuit at this door."

Zhang Qingxia answered in doubt, but Chen Jingsheng seemed to have thought of something, first reached out to touch the Spring Festival couplets, and then stuck his back on the Spring Festival couplets.

That pressure really disappeared.

This discovery made Chen Jingsheng ecstatic, he finally knew where the problem was.

That little ghost is afraid of this Spring Festival couplet, because this Spring Festival couplet is pasted at the door, so the little ghost dare not enter Zhang's house.

One must know that in order to get rid of the kid on his back, Chen Jingsheng had never done the thing of leaning his back against the wall, but even if he stuck it tightly, it was still useless.

After confirming that it was the Spring Festival couplets, Chen Jingsheng asked, "The words on the Spring Festival couplets are very good. Where did these couplets come from?"

"This Spring Festival couplet...was written by one of Qingqing's classmates. I think his handwriting is good, so I posted it on the door."

"Very good. It seems that Qingxia also has a good appreciation of art."

Hearing his uncle's praise to his mother, Chen Qingzhi was a little bit dumbfounded, what level of art appreciation, it was his mother who thought it was free, if Su Le wanted to charge money, even if it was ten yuan, my mother No one wants this Spring Festival couplet.

In my mother's mind, free is the best.

Chen Jingsheng made a gesture of appreciation, and the expression on his face became more and more excited. Of course, he deliberately pretended to show it to everyone present.

"it is good!"

A sudden loud shout startled everyone at the scene.

"This calligraphy is really wonderful. The more I look at it, the more I feel that there is a great truth in this calligraphy. Qingxia, can you give me this couplet?"

"what!"

Zhang Qingxia was a little overwhelmed, and the expressions of the other people present also became weird. The Spring Festival couplets were pasted up, so how could they be given to others? Could it be possible to tear off the Spring Festival couplets?
Chen Jingsheng naturally knew it was wrong to do so, but he couldn't help it. He hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, and he only wanted to sleep well with this Spring Festival couplet today.

"Uncle, if you really like this word, or tomorrow during the day, I will tell my classmate to see if he can write another one."

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that."

Chen Jingsheng slapped his thigh and startled everyone again.

After being tortured by that brat for so long, I was so impatient when I saw a life-saving straw, I couldn't turn my head around.

Since the Spring Festival couplets written by Qingqing's classmate can make this little devil dare not touch her, then Qingqing's classmate may be able to solve the little devil on her body.

"Qingqing, can you contact your classmate? I'll go find him right now. Uncle, I'm so happy to see the words. If I don't get the Spring Festival couplets, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

Seeing that his uncle had changed his usual calm look and looked at him with pleading eyes, Chen Qingzhi couldn't bear to refuse, and replied: "Uncle, it's so late now, I can't guarantee it, let me ask for you."

"Okay, you ask first."

Chen Jingsheng has already made up his mind, no matter what, he will see that classmate Qingqing today.

Chen Qingzhi picked up the phone and called Su Le.

On the other end of the phone, Su Le put down the book in his hand. He was a little puzzled when he saw the call, but he still answered the call.

"Is it Su Le?"

"Well, it's me, Chen Qingzhi, what's the matter with calling so late?"

Chen Qingzhi was a little hesitant, because she was afraid that Su Le would not believe it when it was told, but seeing her uncle's pleading eyes, she continued: "Su Le, it's like this, didn't you write a Spring Festival couplet during the day? I posted it, it just so happened that my uncle came to our house as a guest today, and seeing your Spring Festival couplets, my uncle admired them very much, and I would like to trouble you to write another one."

"That's it... no problem."

It was not difficult for Su Le to write another Spring Festival couplet, so he agreed without thinking about it.

"My uncle...he...he wants it now." Chen Qingzhi was a little embarrassed, and then immediately added: "My uncle is willing to give money."

"Now?"

Su Le was confused, her handwriting was not bad, but it was not so good that people could not wait to want it.

"Student Su Le, hello, I'm Qingqing's uncle, it's like this...I've been under a lot of pressure recently, but after reading your words, I feel that the pressure is gone."

Here, Chen Jingsheng was afraid that Su Le would refuse, so he took his niece's mobile phone and revealed some information, because he believed that if Qingqing's classmate could scare off the kid with his words, then he must understand what he said Meaning.

When Zhang Qingxia and the others heard Chen Jingsheng's words, their eyes fell on this Spring Festival couplet again. Reading the words can relieve stress, why didn't they feel it when they read the words?
"Relieve stress?"

Su Le on the other side of the phone did hear some clues. He is a second-grade scholar with great righteousness, and every word he writes also contains great righteousness. Although it is not much, it does exist.

But just relying on this grandeur of righteousness can't reduce people's stress. The only function of such a great deal of righteousness is to suppress evil spirits.

Su Le understood.

"Okay, I'm in Xinzhou Academy, you can ask your uncle to come over."

Obviously, Chen Qingzhi's uncle must have encountered some kind of evil spirit, but it should not be a very powerful evil spirit, otherwise, the righteousness on the Spring Festival couplets alone would not be able to stop him.

Su Le knew that if the uncle Chen Qingzhi were not allowed to come over now, the other party might not be able to sleep.
