"The patient yelled at the top of his voice, 'Ninety-eight and one,' and after that, he took off his pants and stood on the power tower to urinate below. Although I didn't understand what he meant at the time, I also knew that he was right. His threats had no effect at all."
"Zeng Laoliu was handcuffed in the car, but suddenly he stuck his head out of the car window and cursed at the patient. I thought he was just doing as the Romans do, and even after being admitted to a mental hospital, he was infected to the point where his nerves were abnormal. Go and stop him. But he pointed at the patient on the power tower and said this bastard was cursing."
Lu Kai suddenly interrupted and asked, "What does the patient mean by scolding?"
The policeman curled his lips and uttered two words: "***."
After that, he added in a dumbfounded way: "I only found out after asking Zeng Laoliu."
Lu Kai read "Ninety-Eight and One" back and forth several times, and finally found the connection between these words and "***", and then wondered whether he was a mental patient.
The policeman continued:
"After Zeng Laoliu and the mental patient quarreled for a while, they told me that we have to fight fire with fire. Chickens and ducks cannot communicate with each other. Only chickens and chickens and ducks and ducks can communicate with each other."
"I told him that the situation was urgent, so don't be pretentious and just tell him if you have any clever ideas. Zeng Laoliu pointed to the mental hospital behind the car and asked me to find a patient. He also said that if we want to deal with mental patients, we must only use mental patients. "
"There was no other way. Once I heard his evil idea, I had no choice but to act as a doctor. I found a patient from the hospital, gave him a candy, and asked him to do a favor."
"The patient stood under the power tower and shouted one sentence, and the patient shouted the same sentence that I originally used to scare the patient."
"As a result, the patients on the tower actually came down obediently."
In the end, the policeman couldn't laugh or cry, and changed the topic: "I also think it's evil. Just ask the patient, why didn't you come down when I said I wanted to cut down the power tower? You, the patient, said I wanted to cut down the power tower, and you came down?" "
"The patient looked at me like I was a fool. Don't laugh. He looked like a fool. He told me, are you crazy? He is the one who is crazy. He said he wanted to cut down the power tower, maybe He's really good at cutting... Listen, such a rigorous logic, how does it look like a mental patient? I even doubt that I am a mental patient."
Li Zhudao and others couldn't laugh or cry.
"Xiao Tan thanked me when he got off the bus. I said thank you to Lao Liu in the car." Kanshu La
"Xiao Tan went to look in the car and didn't expect that the person who saved her would be a thief, so he took a few hundred yuan and wanted to give it to Zeng Laoliu."
"Zeng Laoliu was very unhappy. He said that he was a thief, not a beggar. Even if he was a thief, he was still a 'self-reliant thief.'"
"Xiao Tan saw that his shirt was dirty, so as a token of his gratitude, he said he would wash it for him. Zeng Laoliu was very happy this time. He took off his shirt with one hand, handed it to Xiao Tan, and finally stripped it He put his arms around and went back to the police station with me."
Then, the policeman's tone became a bit more sad: "On the way back, Zeng Laoliu suddenly cried and said that no one had washed his clothes since he was a child. He also said that he wanted to take Xiao Tan home as his wife."
"When I heard the first half of the story, I was still thinking that this kid was pathetic, but when I heard the second half, I thought he was daydreaming. I just didn't say that he was a toad that wanted to eat swan meat."
"A few months later, on the way to the police station, I saw Xiao Tan holding Zeng Laoliu's arm and walking together, and I realized that what the boy was talking about in the car was not in his sleep. It was also at this moment that I remembered, Zeng Laoliu has not reported to the police station for several months."
"I originally thought that because of Xiao Tan, Zeng Laoliu finally turned around and changed his ways. But more than half a year later, the branch caught the thief, and finally found out that this kid was the culprit. I couldn't believe it."
The village cadre suddenly interrupted and said: "Lao Liu wanted to get married at that time, so he went to the city to smash car windows and steal things, but he spent a year or two in jail for this."
Zeng Laoliu was sentenced to three years in prison for a serious crime of theft. However, due to his good behavior, he was actually only in prison.
He spent a year and a half in jail.
"I remember this. Lao Liu suddenly came to me and asked me what preparations I should make for my marriage. Lao Liu was not well-received in the village. We village cadres who were responsible for his education often went to his home. Visits have become one of the few people with whom he can express his true feelings."
"I didn't think much about it at the time, so I told him that he didn't need to prepare anything except money. He didn't say much after hearing this, and just left gloomily. Later, I heard that he was arrested in the city and was sentenced. The punishment is not to be held in a detention center for ten days and a half and then released."
"After Zeng Laoliu was released from prison, Xiao Tan would often come to see him." The village cadre added.
Lu Kai was quite indignant: "What a loser. Why is such a good girl following this loser so wholeheartedly?"
Xiao Wu rolled his eyes: "If someone is willing to go to jail for me, I will follow him wholeheartedly."
Lu Kai smacked his lips, unable to refute. He thought about it and thought that he really couldn't be like Zeng Laoliu.
Li Zhudao pointed to the door: "What is the relationship between Lao Liu and the unconscious old monk at the door?"
The village cadre shook his head: "It doesn't matter. After Lao Liu was released from prison, he was very different from before. Although he was sneaking around before he was imprisoned, he was making noises all day long and was very energetic. After he was released from prison, he was always stunned when he saw Xiao Tan. He is always dodging, looks depressed, and is often drunk."
Xiao Wu's face was full of suspicion, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Yu Dewang seemed to see her doubts and sighed: "Men are all like this, self-righteous. When Lao Liu wanted to marry Xiao Tan, he probably thought that he needed a sum of money, not to mention the wedding ceremony. It may have been a success, but at least I wanted to give Xiao Tan a better life. So I went to the city to steal."
"After serving his sentence, facing Xiao Tan who was deeply in love with him, he probably thought that as a reform-through-labor prisoner, he was not worthy of Xiao Tan and could not give her anything. So, he gave up on himself and lay down to die."
In the end, he lamented: "Lao Liu is not bad in nature, has a good mind, and has found such a good partner, but why can't he think of taking the right path down-to-earth?"
After a pause, he looked at the village cadre again: "Go on."
The village cadre cleared his throat and continued: "Lao Liu often goes to the Lotus Temple. To put it bluntly, he comes here to eat and drink. The old monk from the Lotus Temple goes out to make other people's fate better, so he comes to the temple to make the monk's fate better. .”
The Lotus Temple mentioned by the village cadres is the White Lotus Temple. I don’t know why, but the three characters "White Lotus Temple" are clearly carved on the door of the temple, but the villagers and even the old monk himself call Bailian Temple Lotus Temple.
After a pause, the village cadre suddenly said: "This old monk is also an ill-fated person."
Seeing that they were all looking at him, the village cadre simply told the old monk's origins one by one.
The old monk's common surname is Tian and he is from this village.
Old man Tian was an accountant in the village, and his wife was a teacher in the village primary school. They have a son and a daughter and have a happy family.
But misfortune always comes unexpectedly.
My wife died in childbirth when giving birth to her third child. Old man Tian did not remarry and raised his two children alone.
After his daughter graduated from junior high school, Mr. Tian hired a young carpenter from other provinces in the city to make furniture at his home. Before the furniture was finished, his daughter ran away with the carpenter. Since then there has been no news and his life and death are unknown.
Old Man Tian was so angry that he burned a pile of semi-finished furniture with a fire.
My son was also unreliable. When he was still in junior high school, the movie "Shaolin Temple" happened to become a hit. The young man's martial arts dream was ignited, and he determined to travel around the world and do justice. There is no doubt that to do this, you must first become a martial arts master. So, the young man finally failed to suppress the fire in his heart and suddenly ran away from home, leaving a letter saying that he went to Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts from a teacher.
Regarding his son's childish behavior, Mr. Tian was angry and funny, worried and sad. After careful consideration, he decided to go to the Shaolin Temple to find his son.
As a result, he was gone for twenty or thirty years.
After Mr. Tian arrived at the Shaolin Temple, he discovered that people like his son were going to the Shaolin Temple to worship him.
There are so many middle school boys who want to learn from them, and the Shaolin Temple says they won’t accept any of them. Old Man Tian didn't believe it and always thought that the monks in the Shaolin Temple were lying. After staying in the temple for a while, he found that his son was indeed not here.
Old man Tian also thought that his son might have lost his way, or he might have mistaken other temples for Shaolin Temple. So I decided to look for one temple after another.
First, he searched all the temples near Shaolin Temple in Songshan Mountain, and then expanded the search scope to the entire Henan Province. Later, he remembered that there was also a Southern Shaolin in Fujian. Then go on foot and look for the temples along the way. As a result, he ate and slept in the open air all the way, and his footprints soon covered most of China.
After finding nothing in Southern Shaolin, he simply decided to visit temples across the country.
Because he often visited temples, over time, he simply became a monk, but he did not stay in the temple permanently and was a veritable ascetic.
Two or three years ago, Mr. Tian felt that he was getting old, so he returned to his hometown.
When he became a monk, he was still young, but when he came back, he was nearly seventy years old. The family's old house has long since collapsed, the farmland has been confiscated by the village, and very few of the family's relatives have died. He had no place to live, so he occupied a magpie's nest and lived in the deserted and vacant Bailian Temple.
The mountain on which Bailian Temple rests is shaped like a lotus lying on the ground. The flower pedicle is arranged in the temple. There is a gauze-hatted stone master on the left, and a Buddha's hand mountain on the right. However, due to the disharmony between the left Qinglong and the right White Tiger, the White Tiger Mountain is higher than the Qinglong Head, so it is not harmonious enough and it is difficult to get rich.
The stone wall surrounds the temple into a courtyard. Opposite the courtyard gate is a small main hall with kitchens and rooms on both sides. There is also a well in the courtyard and a planting area behind the courtyard.
No one in the village cared about him, because the temple was too small and no monk wanted to stay here. Now that there are people staying here and restoring the incense, it is a good thing after all.
Old Man Tian only dealt with temples in the second half of his life, but he also learned to chant sutras and practices, and he was indispensable for weddings and funerals in the village. The villagers don't care whether he is professional or not. This kind of thing is basically self-comfort, but there are so many things to do. Better than nothing.
