Another day passed in Meishan, the sun was setting in the west, the wind was howling, and the long river was speechless.
Carpenter Zhong has no intention of going to work anymore. His wife has become someone else's woman. Why is he still working so hard? Just after the sun set, I walked to the ancient tree while drinking wine alone. I lay down on the cold stone and closed my eyes.
...At this time, Carpenter Zhong came to a small courtyard, which seemed familiar to him, but he was not sure where it was. The night is dark, the long river flows eastward, but the moon is not yet visible.
When Carpenter Zhong walked through the house, he found that there was still a light on in the house, but the wind was so roaring outside that it could not extinguish the swaying light. Carpenter Zhong was a little thirsty at this time, so he wanted to go in and ask someone for some water, so he lay down by the window and took a look inside. At this time, he found that although the lights were on in the room, he found two dead people lying in the main room.
Moreover, it is strange to say that this deceased person also looks familiar, but he is not sure. Carpenter Zhong leaned on the window of the house and stared at it for a while, then became a little scared and did not dare to look. After all, it was unlucky to lie on the window alone and look at the dead people in the house in the middle of the night. Moreover, when he looked around, he found that there was only one house here, and outside the house, there was a large area of barren graves.
Carpenter Zhong didn't dare to look, but he felt that the deceased seemed familiar, so he lay down and took another look. Only then did he realize that the deceased was himself, and the woman lying next to him was his. After looking at this, Carpenter Zhong didn't dare to look at it, but he didn't know what was going on, so he ran away desperately and could never stay here again.
At this time, he saw that it was raining in the sky, and the big raindrops were falling on people's bodies, making them cold and wet, which was quite uncomfortable. But there is no other way. After all, this is the only way to escape. Otherwise, should we continue to stay in that room and look at the deceased? Of course not.
Carpenter Zhong ran away, and soon he saw an old tree, and a piece of skin suddenly came off the old tree. He didn't know what had scraped off the skin. It looked quite dazzling. Sitting under this ancient tree at this time, I didn't dare to move for a while, and no one talked to me, I just looked at the ancient tree like this.
At this moment, for some reason, the house appeared in front of him again, as if the house could walk on its own, and in this house, lights could be vaguely flickered. Carpenter Zhong knew there was something in this room, so he closed his eyes and didn't dare to look at it. Suddenly, there was a flash of light in the sky, and there was another thunder.
When Carpenter Zhong opened his eyes again, he found that he was lying under the ancient tree. Of course, he did not see the house. However, the trunk of the ancient tree was struck by lightning again, and the peeling area became even larger. . It was raining, and Carpenter Zhong couldn't stay here any longer, so he walked back to his house along the way he came. However, when he walked to the door of the house, he remembered the scene in his dream and hesitated for a while. Know whether you want to go in or not.
Carpenter Zhong leaned down to the window and took a look. The lights were still on, but he could not see where his woman had gone. Carpenter Zhong didn't care about that anymore. It was raining heavily outside and it was extremely cold. Where could he go if he didn't enter this house?
Not long after entering the house, the heavy rain outside the door became even heavier, like pouring water. In the mist that filled the sky, there were no traces of pedestrians coming and going. But it didn't matter. At this time, the carpenter was sitting in his main room, thinking about the strange dream he had just under the old tree, and his whole body was trembling. I wonder what kind of omen this is?
The sky was full of mist and mist, but at this moment, I saw two people walking on the road, holding umbrellas, one carrying the other on his back. As he got closer, he could see clearly that the person on Mao Si's back was actually his own woman.
When Carpenter Zhong saw such a scene, could he not be angry? But then I thought about it, my woman was happy with this, and it was inconvenient for me to say anything at the moment, so I had to pretend not to see her. No, when the two of them entered the house, Carpenter Zhong kept rubbing his eyes and said that he had a foreign object in his eyes and that he couldn't see clearly for a while.
Mao Si didn't care about that much at this time. In front of Carpenter Zhong, he groped and grabbed Carpenter Zhong's woman, which made Carpenter Zhong's woman laugh. Carpenter Zhong had to listen at this time, but he did not dare to do anything to these two people, so he took an umbrella out of the house on the pretext that he had something to do, and said that he would not stop until it got dark. return.
Mao Si wished for this, and before Carpenter Zhong had gone far, he started doing that thing with Carpenter Zhong's woman again in the main room. Of course, Carpenter Zhong did not go far, but hid aside, out of sight and out of mind. However, when he heard that there was something strange in the main room, he still came over to take a look. Seeing such an unbearable scene, I couldn't help but tremble all over, but I thought I couldn't beat this big guy, so I didn't dare to say anything for a while.
Carpenter Zhong was sitting alone under the eaves at this time, letting the cold rain splash on his body. His body felt cold for a while, and he wanted to sneeze, but he held it back for fear of ruining other people's good things. I don't know how long they stayed under the eaves like this. By the time it got dark, the two of them still hadn't finished their work. Carpenter Zhong felt hungry and had to eat, so he gently pushed the door open. The two of them had just finished their work and were putting on pants.
Carpenter Zhong thought that he was just a poor man, and God was wise and had given him a daughter-in-law so that he would not have to annihilate his descendants. He was already satisfied. But since his wife no longer wanted him, it was inconvenient for him to say anything more. Alas, let him go, everything is fate anyway, what can be done?
Carpenter Zhong made a dish in the kitchen and sat alone on the dilapidated table, drinking wine. This is the only way to rely on it. Otherwise, how can I deal with this scandal soberly?
"I get annoyed when I see you!" Carpenter Zhong's woman was standing in front of Carpenter Zhong, pointing at Carpenter Zhong and saying. Yes, compared with Mao Si, Carpenter Zhong's appearance can be described as ugly. How could such a man be worthy of him?
However, Carpenter Zhong’s woman did not dare to hit Carpenter Zhong, she just asked him to leave her sight, otherwise, Carpenter Zhong’s woman said she would be in a very bad mood. When Carpenter Zhong heard this, he took the food and wine and went out of the house. He sat in the heavy rain for a while, but then he heard his woman yelling loudly, saying that it was not far enough. Carpenter Zhong then moved further away, until Carpenter Zhong's woman was out of sight, and then he stopped moving. Carpenter Zhong returned to the ancient tree at this time.
At this time, lightning was flashing in the sky, and after the lightning, there was another thunder. As for Carpenter Zhong, who was staying under this ancient tree, he was completely relying on the blessings of the gods. Since he never did bad things, the gods and Buddhas would definitely keep him safe, right?
A thunder exploded, which made Carpenter Zhong a little scared. It was not good to sit alone under this old tree and drink wine during the rain and thunder. But if I don't stay under this ancient tree, where else can I stay at this time? Isn't it okay to stay under the heavy rain and be thirsty for wine? And other places are completely empty. Not to mention there are houses, there is not even a shed for guarding melons.
He can only stay here and drink, otherwise his woman will be unhappy, and as long as he sees his woman unhappy, Carpenter Zhong will feel very distressed. I have no choice but to stay under this ancient tree for the sake of my woman. I never do bad things, and God and Buddha will definitely bless me safely.
At this time, a strong wind blew from the sky. Wherever the wind passed, the sound of rolling rocks on the ground was heard endlessly, and the ancient tree also made appalling whistles. But Carpenter Zhong didn't care about so much, he just drank his own wine. With the shelter of this ancient tree, the rain couldn't come in. For a while, it was dry and dry under the ancient tree, just like a house.
After drinking for a while, the wine was finished. Rather than finishing the wine, it was better to say that the strange wind had finished the wine. It was no longer convenient to stay under this ancient tree at this time, so I left the ancient tree in the rain. As soon as I came out, a wisp of green smoke came out of the ancient tree, and the ancient tree was struck by lightning again. If I had come out late... The money clock may never come out.
When I returned to my house, I found that the door was closed. It was as cold and silent as a temple, lifeless, and it made me want to cry. But this is my home. On a rainy day, I have nowhere to go. If I don’t stay here, where can I go? He knocked gently on the door, but no one responded. His woman was clearly staying in this room just now, so why did she disappear in the blink of an eye?
