[069] Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger
After drinking and laughing, everyone chatted for a while and then began to disperse. After a while, apart from Sha Biao, only Brother Zhang, Director Han and I were left at the wine table.
.
This meal lasted from noon to evening. Seeing that it was already getting late, Brother Zhang said goodbye and prepared to take Director Han and me back to his house to rest.
However, almost at the same time that we got up, an old man over fifty years old suddenly burst in outside the door. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted to Sha Biao: "It's not good! Chief, please go to my house quickly."
Let's see!"
"What's wrong?"
As the leader of the Miao village, Sha Biao was obviously not surprised by this. On weekdays, these Miao people would come to him if they had any big problems, so at the beginning, he actually didn't let go.
In his heart, he smiled slightly and said: "Don't be anxious, speak slowly, the sky will not fall!"
"well……"
But the old man seemed extremely anxious and said with a cry: "All the dozen sheep in my house are dead!"
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, Sha Biao's expression changed drastically. He stood up from the bench with a loud sound and asked hurriedly: "How did you die? When did it happen?"
The old man said with a mournful face: "How did I know? They all died inexplicably. It must have happened last night or this morning! I went out in a hurry in the morning and didn't pay attention. As soon as I got home at noon, I found that there were people in the circle.
All the sheep are lying on the ground!"
"Ouch, I can't live without this! These dozen sheep are going to be sold at the beginning of the new year to pay for my little brat's school fees! You said..."
"Don't worry, take me over first and take a look first!"
No need for the little old man to explain, Sha Biao also knows the seriousness of the matter. Except for a few Miao people in Babao Township who have made a fortune by making wine or batik, the vast majority of the remaining people are poor. Just these dozen
Sheep, that was almost the old man’s entire income for a year! They were all dead at once, and everyone would be anxious.
As the leader of the Miao village, he naturally has a duty to handle this matter properly.
"Um?"
At this moment, a flash of surprise flashed across my eyes. I have been observing the old man since he appeared, and found that not only was his hall darkened, but he also had an unlucky look on his face. This was obviously a "disaster of blood".
A sign?
I have said before that when I first met Lao Zhangtou, he forced me to read many metaphysics books, including "The Book of Changes", "Four Pillars of Numerology", "Liu Ren" and so on, many of which were related to Xiangtou.
Related to fortune telling.
Therefore, although I have not studied physiognomy systematically, I still understand some simple principles of physiognomy, which is at least much more reliable than some charlatans under the overpass.
"Well, then I won't keep you any longer. As you've seen, I have to go out quickly. Sorry!"
After saying this, Sha Biao and the old man left here in a hurry.
"Let's go! Let's go take a look, maybe we can still help!"
Over there, Sha Biao had already rushed to the door. Only then did I wake up and quickly said to Brother Zhang and others.
"Huh? Did you see something?"
Brother Zhang obviously saw the action of pinching my fingers just now, and knew that I must have seen some clues. He immediately became interested and asked quickly: "Isn't it a ghost again?"
"I don't know! You'll know when you go there!"
How do I know this? Not to mention that I don’t understand fortune telling at all. Even if I understand it, I don’t dare to calculate it in detail. Leaking out the secrets of fortune telling is also an act against heaven. If you are not careful, you will be doomed.
In some cases, the person will lose his vitality and lose his life, or in severe cases, he will cough up blood and die on the spot. Therefore, even some really capable people will never tell people's fortunes easily.
.
There was no time to elaborate, so I quickly followed Brother Zhang and Director Han out the door.
When I caught up with Sha Biao and the other two, I heard that I wanted to come over to help, and Sha Biao naturally welcomed me. Through conversations on the road, I learned that the old man’s surname was Wu, and he was also a Miao man, but he did not live in the Miao village.
Instead, he lived in a mountain valley about one or two miles away from the Miao village, and made a living by herding sheep on weekdays.
After climbing over a small mountain pass, the lonely little courtyard of Lao Wu's family suddenly came into view.
However, the strange thing is that from a long distance away, I could faintly see a faint red light coming from Lao Wu's house. This red light was not obvious and could not be detected by ordinary people. Even practitioners need to get close enough.
The range can only be sensed through the Qi field.
"There is a treasure hidden in their house!"
This thought flashed through my mind almost subconsciously. According to Taoism, when red clouds rise to the sky, this is definitely a sign that a treasure is about to be born!
Could it be that this treasure caused the "bloody disaster" to the old Wu family?
But this is not right. Since even the sheep in their family are dead, it means that someone already knows that there is a treasure here. Since he came here, why didn't he take away the treasure?
With doubts on our faces, our group finally arrived at Lao Wu’s house.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I discovered something very interesting. In a large tank in the courtyard, there was a huge golden carp. Looking at the head, it weighed at least four or five kilograms. There was also a carp next to it.
There was a fat cat lying on its belly, lazily basking in the sun. When a stranger came in, it looked like a guard dog, with its tail erect and meowing at us.
"I see!"
Seeing this situation, I suddenly realized it and smiled in my heart. No wonder the visitor didn't take away the treasure. I dare to admit that there is a hidden dragon and crouching tiger in this inconspicuous courtyard of Old Wu's house!
What is Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger?
This is actually a pattern in Feng Shui. The first is the carp in the big tank. As the saying goes, "the carp leaps over the dragon's gate", then the carp in the tank naturally becomes a "hidden dragon in the water"; and the fat cat is even more
Needless to say, tigers are originally cats. Looking at the fat cat lying there lazily, doesn’t it correspond to the word "crouching tiger"?
Tsk tsk... This feng shui bureau is a mess. With a dragon and a tiger guarding the house, even some evil spirits who have reached a certain level will never dare to attack.
I took a look and saw that Lao Wu's sheepfold was built just outside the yard and was not in the Feng Shui bureau. It was probably because the other party couldn't enter the yard, so he took all his anger out on the sheep.
Alas, this old Wu is really unlucky. If you want to build the sheepfold in the yard, nothing will happen.
Shaking my head, I followed Sha Biao to the sheepfold and inspected the corpses in the sheepfold with him.
The strange thing is that after checking for a long time, we did not find any clues, nor did we find any wounds on the dead sheep.
Director Han, who was indeed a professional criminal police officer, checked the dead sheep over and over again, and finally pointed to a black spot on the lamb's leg and said, "That's it!"
We quickly gathered around, and sure enough we found that every dead sheep had a black spot the size of a thumb!
Just as we were looking at the black spots carefully, Director Han continued: "She must have been poisoned to death. It looked like she was bitten to death by some poisonous insect or something like that! This mutton is inedible, so hurry up and find it."
Let’s bury it somewhere!”
"Ah? This..."
Upon hearing this, Old Wu couldn't help but sit down on the ground in a hurry. He was almost fifty years old, and he cried loudly on the spot: "God damn it, what evil have I done!"
"Okay! Stop crying, listen to Director Han and bury the sheep first!"
Lao Wu's wailing immediately made Sha Biao a little upset, and he quickly said: "I will find a way to help you get some subsidies from the countryside. No matter how poor you are, you can't poor your children. You have to continue to go to school.
…”
"Ah? Really?"
Upon hearing this, Old Wu immediately stopped wailing, nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, okay, okay, I'll dig a hole to bury the sheep right now!"
"As long as my little boy can go to school, I can do whatever you want..."
As he kept mumbling, Old Wu was ready to dig a hole to bury the sheep. A man like him, who had been herding sheep all his life and had never seen much of the world, naturally obeyed Sha Biao's orders.
Even if there is no subsidy, the leader has already spoken, and he probably has no other choice but to comply.
"Not urgent!"
At this moment, I couldn't help but smile, stopped Lao Wu, and said: "Take us to your house first to have a look. There is a treasure hidden in your house. If we can find it, let alone ten
A few sheep, even a dozen cows, can still be earned!"
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked at me. Then Lao Wu said with a wry smile: "Oh, brother, please stop making fun of me. This is a broken house."
There is not even a single electrical appliance except a flashlight, so where did the treasure come from?"
"If I say there is, there will be! Let's see if we can find it!"
But I looked full of confidence and quickly urged Lao Wu: "Let's go and take a look inside. You have nothing to lose anyway!"
"Oh, okay..."
Seeing my persistence, Old Wu finally nodded helplessly, and then led us into the yard. While leading us into the house to hunt for treasures, he turned back to his wife and ordered: "Get two dishes.
Chapter completed!
