the last witcher

Version 5: The sloppy old man threw a yellow paper man with earrings into the ice hole, and the paper man sank to the bottom.Then the fish pond shook a little. I wanted to run, but my calf was so frightened that I couldn’t run. After about [-] minutes, the old man chanted a mantra, and the yellow paper man floated up. I took a look, and the paper man’s chest was a little red. .

The above two versions, the former is the plot of the novel, and the latter is the real situation. If I were a reader who asked me to choose, I still tend to read the former. After all, it looks enjoyable, so readers should not choose certain words in the article to read Complain with me, it is literary creation after all, I just need to ensure that the events are true, why should I care about the others?Furthermore, if I write every chapter according to the latter narrative style, you will find it boring, and my writing will be even more boring, what do you think?

The old man bent down and took out the little yellow paper man in the ice hole, looked up at me who was already stunned, "This merit will offset the cost of drinking for me." After finishing speaking, he put the little paper man in his arms .

I looked at old man Liu again, and found that he was not as good as me, so I was trembling with fright.This is no wonder, after all, it is rare for ordinary people to see this kind of thing once in a lifetime, so it is reasonable to be overly frightened.

The sloppy old man stepped up to the old man Liu, "Don't panic, old man, quickly take me to your room, and I will teach you how to change your luck." Old man Liu heard that he could make a fortune by transferring luck, thinking that after making money, he could give it to his son. Now that I have married a wife, I have long put the word of fear out of the blue, "Good! Good! Good!" He said yes repeatedly, and then led me and the old Taoist back to his house.

The Taoist first asked the old man Liu to go to the supermarket outside to buy a piece of red paper and a bottle of ink, and then he opened his dirty Taoist robe, and there was a very clean short coat inside, and there were many pockets on the short coat , there are a lot of things jingling inside, one of which is a brush.I couldn't see the other items on the short coat clearly because the room was dark, but the broken red rope tied around the waist by the old man made me sigh.I sigh in my heart that this old man is really poor enough, he can't even afford a belt, where can I get such a dirty and torn red string as a belt.

I happened to be holding my Giordano belt in my hand, so I kindly walked up to the old Taoist, "Master Taoist, I bring you these trousers, please change your trouser belt." The broken red rope around the waist.The old man was thinking after taking the brush, when he saw that I was reaching for his trouser belt, his eyes widened immediately, "Stop!" Just like a thunder on the ground, I was so frightened that my liver and gallbladder were torn apart, my hands trembled, and the belt in my hand fell to the ground.

"You silly baby, you can't touch everything, just stay here and don't come and make trouble for me." After finishing speaking, the sloppy old man hesitated for a moment, and continued: "Some things, you can't Just look at the appearance, you just watch how I can make money for old man Liu, don’t worry about it!" It is estimated that Wang Daoren also knew that his tone just now was a bit harsh, so he lowered his voice by an octave and spoke in a gentle voice. The tone of voice let me see how he opened old man Liu's treasury.

Oh, good intentions are like the liver and lungs of a donkey, and a dog bites Lu Dongbin, so you don't know a good heart.Forget it, let him go.Thinking of this, I picked up the belt on the ground and quickly fastened it to myself.Then he stared at the sloppy old man intently, watching how he opened a treasury for Old Man Liu.

The old Taoist cut the red paper he bought into the size of Spring Festival couplets, and then drew a pen to make a pair of couplets. The first couplet is "respectful blessings from all directions", and the second couplet is "welcome four seasons of peace and prosperity". Gong Xi Fa Cai", the old Taoist once again saw through my thoughts, raised his head, gave me a nasty look, and then wrote a horizontal comment "Heaven and earth pass".

As soon as the old Taoist finished writing, I was so hung up on it, what the hell is this shit, it doesn't match at all, this damn bull-nosed, deliberately making fun of the little master.After the old Taoist finished writing the couplet, he turned around and said to the old man Liu beside him: "Old man, stick this couplet on the door, throughout the year, the plague god is not close." After saying that, he handed the couplet to the old man Liu.

Because I have just seen the supernatural powers of the old man, and there is the relationship of the fourth aunt in it, so the old man Liu knows that the master in front of him is very capable. After thanking him repeatedly, the old man Liu posted the couplet on his home with my help. on the door frame.After the old man Liu posted the couplet, the old man continued to ask: "Which rich people in the village are rich and unkind?" Sell ​​it to private individuals to start a factory, and all the money goes into their pockets." I reluctantly agreed, which seemed to be the same across the country.Hearing this, the old Taoist smiled, and continued: "Well, on New Year's Eve, you go to the land of the village head or the village party secretary's house, dig two baskets of soil, bring it back to your own house, and sprinkle it on your own land. "Although Old Man Liu didn't understand, he nodded in agreement.The old Taoist continued: "At the beginning of spring, take peach bark, angelica dahurica, and green water incense, boil them in water, take a shower with the boiled water, and your treasury will be opened." After finishing speaking, Fearing that old man Liu would not be able to remember, he wrote these three materials on the remaining red paper with a brush, handed it to old man Liu, rinsed the brush clean, wrapped it up and put it in a short jacket.

In the sound of thank you from the old man Liu, I started to walk towards the post office with the sloppy old man.On the way back, the old man was not walking very fast, so I took the opportunity to ask: "Wang Taoist, bathe with peach bark, angelica dahurica and green water fragrance in Lichun, dig rich people's soil on New Year's Eve and scatter it on your own ground, and paste a Can the Spring Festival couplets you just wrote open a person's treasury?" The old Taoist did not stop, but slowed down his walking speed, and then said to me: "Boy, if my calculation is correct, old man Liu I was supposed to have something to rely on and spend my old age in peace, but I had a lot of fate. I met you and me by chance. Helping him with this favor is just a smooth sailing. Even if there is no you and me, there will be others to help, so why should I bother Give this merit to others." I half understood what the old Taoist said, but it was not easy to interrupt, so I could only continue listening.

"Compared to the countryside, the land is a symbol of wealth, let alone the land cultivated by the family, and the New Year's Eve coincides with the arrival of the beast of the year and the renewal of all things, so it is very appropriate to choose that time to collect soil; as for that Vice couplet, I know you are educated, and I also know that the normal horizontal comment is Gong Xi Fa Cai, but you don’t know that the beginning of New Year’s Eve is also the time when the plague envoy walks the world. And go to other places; as for Lichun, using those three things to boil water and bathe is to get rid of bad luck in the body, add vitality, and absorb wealth. Gotta clean it up."
