What is in front of me is a dilapidated yard, which looks a lot shabby compared to other homes.
Qing Xin also keenly discovered that Old Man Liu would put away his greasy smile and become serious every time before doing business.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door, and not long after, a middle-aged man appeared in front of the door.
Old Man Liu looked at the middle-aged man. He was not possessed by the movie king like before, but went straight to the point and asked: "Are you Yang Qianqing?"
The big man in front of him was slightly stunned, obviously he still didn't understand what the old man and the young man in front of him meant. So he stuttered and replied, "Yes, it's me. My name is Yang Guoqing."
As soon as these words came out, Old Man Liu first looked around, and then whispered to the confused Yang Qianqing in front of the door: "Let's go into the house and talk."
Then, before Yang Qianqing could react, he held Huan Xin's hand and walked into the room. Only the middle-aged man was left messy in the wind. It wasn't that he didn't dare to turn them away, but he felt that the aura emanating from this fat old man was not like that of an ordinary person, so he didn't know what to do.
If Sister Yang Haiyan's family at the west end of the village has typical rural family conditions, then Yang Qianqing's family can be said to be a bare-bones family. Apart from a table and a bed, there was almost no visible furniture left. Looking at the house with nowhere to stay, Old Man Liu couldn't help but frown.
Yang Qianqing, who came in after closing the door, looked at the messy home and lowered his head in shame. He explained with some embarrassment: "I am a single man, so my home is inevitably a bit messy."
Old Man Liu looked around and found no obvious place to store the tablets. So he turned his head, looked at the big man in front of him with eyes like a falcon, lowered his voice, and asked seriously: "Qian Qing, we have something to ask you this time. You must answer truthfully."
Yang Qianqing, who was standing aside, was overwhelmed by the tense atmosphere created by Old Man Liu. He was a little overwhelmed and asked: "Old sir, what do you do? If you have anything to ask, I will definitely tell you. "
Old Man Liu stopped trying to beat around the bush and went straight to the point uncharacteristically: "There was originally a mountain temple on the high mountain in the distance. You took the mountain god's tablet."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Qianqing's whole body trembled as if he had been struck by lightning, and he involuntarily stepped back. As a result, he tripped over a wine bottle at his feet and fell to the ground. He sat down on the ground in a panic, showing panic and confusion. An incredible expression, and a complicated heart filled with mixed emotions.
After a while, Old Man Liu sat on a long chair by the door. Yang Qianqing, who was sitting on the ground, calmed down his panting chest and stood up calmly. After a moment of silence, he slowly said: " Old gentleman, who did you listen to?"
Old Man Liu said calmly and calmly: "Don't worry about it. If you want others to know that you can't do anything except yourself, just say so, right?"
Yang Qianqing lowered his head, as if recalling the scenes that happened more than ten years ago, and finally took a deep breath, and then sighed and said: "Yes, the mountain temple is gone, and I left the memorial tablet just to remember it. No one has known about this for so many years, but I didn’t expect that someone still came to my door today.”
At this time, Old Man Liu also felt a stone settled in his heart, and he returned to his kind-hearted look like an ordinary old man, and said seriously: "Don't get me wrong, it was a coincidence that we came to find this memorial tablet. I am a Taoist, and it was a coincidence. I came across this incident and inquired all the way before I came to you. Is the mountain god tablet still there?"
The middle-aged man relaxed a lot when he heard this, and nodded quickly and said yes. When he brought this home, he was frightened for fear of being discovered, so he hid it in the mezzanine of the wall.
After that, Yang Qianqing started to move. He fiddled with the debris on the ground in the corner of the wall. After cleaning it, he pushed against the wall and a small mezzanine appeared. He reached out and grabbed it and took out a quilt. The thick dust on the things wrapped in yellow cloth showed that they had not been touched for many years.
Yang Qianqing patted the dust on the yellow cloth, walked to the table with the things, and carefully prepared to open the yellow cloth. While busy, he said: "It has been so many years. No one has mentioned it in so many years, and I have forgotten it." This is it.”
Later, Yang Qianqing told the story of his lame leg.
That was when Yang Qianqing was young. He worked in the city for the first time and returned home, earning a lot of money. In the city, I also fell in love with a young girl who was also working, and I couldn't help but feel how beautiful she was. Once, he was drinking at a friend's house in a neighboring village. He was a little drunk. On the way home, he looked at the mountain temple on a high mountain in the distance. When he was drunk, he wanted to worship at the mountain temple. , for blessing. Yang Qianqing, who had never worshiped gods or believed in Buddhism, walked toward the mountain temple step by step.
When he was about to climb to the top of the mountain, his feet suddenly fell down. At this time, Yang Qianqing's heart also "thumped", thinking that this time it was over. Just when he was about to go down again, he was killed by an old lady. The man was saved in time and his life was saved. Unfortunately, the leg was bent at an incredible angle.
When he spent a lot of money to heal his leg and came to the mountain temple again, he was surprised to find that the statue of the mountain god in the mountain temple was very similar to the old lady who saved him. So he fell down and kowtowed to the mountain god vigorously. At this time, he just thought that the mountain god appeared and saved him who was in a coma. From then on, I went to worship the mountain god that no one worshiped anymore.
Old man Liu and Huan Xin also understood what happened next. At this time, Yang Qianqing also removed the yellow cloth, revealing the mountain god tablet that had become somewhat corrupted over time, and said to Old Man Liu: "This is the tablet that I secretly saved back then. I took it home and hid it in the wall. , this is the first time I have taken it out.”
Liu Jinyan looked closely. Although the tablet was old, he still saw something unusual emanating from the tablet, which indeed contained a hint of heavenly blessing.
So he said to Yang Qianqing: "I am really here for this mountain god tablet. If you believe that I am not a bad person, just leave the ranking to me, and I will find a way to place it properly."
Yang Qianqing hesitated for a moment and then said simply: "I just couldn't bear to see the mountain temple destroyed. I am just an ordinary farmer. Of course I don't understand the Taoism inside. You just said that you are a Taoist. He definitely knows more than me, so I can trust you."
Later, Yang Qianqing asked if the mountain temple could be rebuilt. Old Man Liu did not give a direct answer, but said vaguely that there was God's will in the dark, so he took his heart, put away the mountain god tablet and left.
Yang Qianqing stopped at the door and watched, and it was considered that a past event of many years was settled. Why did he believe in Old Man Liu so much? There was also a little story in this. Just a few days ago, he had a dream. In the dream, he He saw the old lady who had saved him again. The old lady bowed deeply to Yang Qianqing and thanked him for taking care of him over the years. She also told him that a child would take her home in a few days and asked him not to stop him. , and finally told him that good people will be rewarded and I will bless him.
After waking up from the dream, Yang Qianqing also felt confused. It was not until he saw Old Man Liu and Huan Xin today that he realized everything. He just felt that everything was like a dream.
