Yesterday, Er Snake looked like his eye sockets were sunken and his cheekbones were high, giving him a sense of malnutrition or decadence. But today, his eye sockets don't look so sunken anymore, and his cheekbones are not as high as yesterday. The condition is much better.
It was as if he had gained more than ten pounds in just one night.
I thought he had a twin brother, and this was his brother.
"How's it going? Is it like what I said? This thing is very effective?" The two snakes looked at Zhao Hu and said with a smile.
"Yes, it's so useful. In my whole life, it has never made me feel as good as last night. Thank you so much, brother." With that, Zhao Hu asked the other party how much it cost.
The two snakes stretched out four fingers and clicked four times in the air.
"Four thousand four hundred and forty-four?" Zhao Hu asked in surprise.
The two snakes nodded: "Yes."
Zhao Hu smiled and waved his hand: "This number is too unlucky. I will just give you four and a half thousand, or five thousand, which is not less than a few hundred. Last night made me feel so happy, so I think I can give you more." It’s worth a few hundred dollars to you, and…”
Before Zhao Hu finished speaking, the two snakes shook their heads and said: "No, this number is not decided by you or me. It can't be a cent more, and it can't be a cent less. It must be four thousand four hundred and forty-four." .”
Zhao Hu frowned: "You didn't decide it? Then who decided it? Why does it have to be four by four? It doesn't sound good."
The two snakes pointed at the Buddha amulet on Zhao Hu's chest: "Then you have to ask it. It's the one who set the price."
When I heard this, I felt a little nervous. There must be something to this number, and it might be detrimental to Zhao Hu, but the two snakes would definitely not say it.
Zhao Hu smiled and said: "Then you are talking nonsense. It can't speak, so how can it set the price?"
"It is very spiritual and has a lot to do with you. You will know it later. Okay, just give me the amount I told you. After giving you the money, I will give you a support note. You can take it." When you get the list back, as long as you do what it says, nothing will happen."
Since the man was only willing to ask for this much money, Zhao Hu had no choice but to give him this amount. However, he was short of a few dollars in change. He first asked me if I had any change. I took the money out of my pocket, then shook my head and said no. Then he asked the two snakes if they could find them.
The second snake said that he didn't want change and asked Zhao Hu to give him the amount directly.
In desperation, Zhao Hu went to the old man at the newsstand to exchange money. The old man exchanged money for him, but he asked for an extra 100 yuan in favors. Zhao Hu was so angry that he even cursed the old man.
When he came back and gave him the money, the two snakes gave him a support note.
In fact, it is just a handwritten note.
I took a look at it at that time, and only after looking at the list did I know that this amulet had a name, it was called the Spiritual Goddess of Animals amulet.
As for the precautions, there are nothing. That is to say, you cannot wear the Buddha amulet when taking a bath, and you cannot touch the Buddha amulet with your feet. The position and direction of the offering must be accurate, and the offering must be made every day. The food offered must be fresh, mainly rice. Eat a small amount of meat and avoid collisions as much as possible. If the shell is broken, be sure to find Ershen for repair and replacement in time.
Before Zhao Hu even read the precautions, he became a little impatient. He said, "This looks so troublesome. I thought it was enough to just wear it around my neck. Why are there so many rules?"
I said, why don't you just go back now and ask how you can pay it back.
Zhao Hu said to wait a few more days, and he would be free and unrestrained for a few more days, and then he would say when he was satisfied.
Because I was afraid that something might happen to Zhao Hu, I asked Er Snake how I could return it if I no longer wanted to wear it. Er Snake said that I could just come back to him and he would help me return it.
I thought that since he paid back the favor, it meant he was taking some responsibility, so I didn’t think too much about it, and then followed Zhao Hu back. Halfway there, Zhao Hu cursed: "Fuck, I just saw it, and it said below, When you make offerings the week before, you must use dead rats as offerings.”
"Dead rat? Then this is obviously something evil. Is this a shady thing? Are you sure it's a genuine one?" I asked quickly.
Zhao Hu said he couldn't be sure. Anyway, what the two snakes said was genuine, so let's count it as genuine. After saying that, he patted me on the shoulder and comforted me: "It doesn't matter, as long as you and Uncle Su are here, nothing will happen to me." .”
"Then you have to have fun for a few days? Even if you don't use the Buddha cards, you can still have fun."
Zhao Hu said: "You don't understand. That kind of pleasure can really make people go to heaven. It can be addictive. Otherwise, you should try it and then..."
"Go away, you're not afraid of death, I'm afraid of death."
"Okay, okay, hurry up and find a way to get me a dead mouse."
It was a coincidence that when Zhao Hu was worrying about where to kill the mice, a waiter from a nearby restaurant came out carrying a dustpan with several dead mice in the dustpan.
As she walked out, she was cursing, meaning that these mice had ruined all the rice in the rice barn, and she wanted to smash all the mice into powder.
Zhao Hu immediately burst out laughing: "Look, this Buddha amulet has brought us a lot of good luck. It really comes to mind. We were just looking for a dead mouse, and this happened?"
With that said, he immediately walked forward and asked the waiter for the dead rats.
The waiter was obviously not surprised. She knew that Zhao Hu wanted this thing as a Buddhist amulet. She was very enthusiastic. Not only did she agree to give these dead mice to Zhao Hu, but she also took out a plastic bag from the room.
Zhao Hu wanted to give someone some money to express his gratitude, but the person didn't ask for it.
"Are you taking these dead rats back to the hotel?" I asked Zhao Hu a little disgustedly as we walked back with the dead rats.
"Where else would I put it?"
"There are bacteria and other things on the mouse. If you put it in the room, I feel bad. And you also want to offer this amulet in the room, right?"
Zhao Hu smiled bitterly and said: "Then there is no place to put it or to support it. How about I open a new room?"
I said that’s fine, I’d open a new one, where I could put the rats to death and offer Buddhist amulets, and just come to my room to sleep when I’m sleeping.
Zhao Hu said yes.
After returning to the hotel, Zhao Hu opened a new room and placed the dead mouse in that room. Then he placed the bedside table in the southeast corner of the room according to what was written on the supply list. When he was done, he asked for some rice from the hotel. Plan to make a donation.
Because outsiders were not allowed to see the offerings, I had no choice but to go out first.
When I was waiting for Zhao Hu outside, I was quite nervous. I kept my ears open to listen to what was going on inside, for fear that something would happen to Zhao Hu.
About ten minutes later, Zhao Hu came out, and nothing seemed unusual.
"Have you finished offering food?" I asked.
Zhao Hu nodded: "Well, it's over."
"Is something happening?"
He shook his head: "Nothing."
"Okay, let's go back to the room."
When we went back to the room twice, we happened to see Zheng Haoyang coming out of his room, and he came out with two bodyguards.
After the three people came out, they glanced towards us, and then walked towards the stairs at the end of the corridor. It seemed that they were planning to go out. As for where they were going, I vaguely thought they might be looking for the two snakes.
I guess when we went to find the two snakes, this guy sent someone to follow us, and now we also want to try to get a Buddhist amulet.
After returning to the room, Zhao Hu was not sleepy at all. Later, he called Jianzui over, and the three of us started fighting over the landlord.
The Buddha amulet hanging around Zhao Hu's neck was obvious, and Jianzui naturally noticed it. He also asked Zhao Hu what it was, and Zhao Hu told him, and Jianzui's eyes shone.
"Is it true? You stayed up all night?"
"yes."
"Then give me the whole thing. I usually finish it in less than three minutes."
Zhao Hu burst out laughing: "Then you really should get one. After lunch, I will take you to find the two snakes and get one for you too."
"Then let me see yours first." Jianzui said, reaching out to touch Zhao Hu's amulet.
Zhao Hu hurriedly blocked it with his hands: "You can't touch it. No one else can touch it except me."
