I was stunned for a moment, thinking I had seen it wrong, but I soon calmed down again. It was indeed the stone tablet I had seen on the back mountain, and the "Hidden Immortal Lord" engraved on it seemed to become more eye-catching.
But why is it here?
In a daze, Zhang Tofu had already gotten up.
The fall just now actually knocked off his front teeth. Now he was covering his mouth with blood, which shocked me.
Being tripped like this, Zhang Tofu showed his bad side even more. He got angry at the stone tablet that made him lose his front teeth. When he kicked it down, he grimaced in pain.
You Xiangui, who heard the commotion outside, rushed in. Seeing him kicking the stone tablet, he quickly came to stop him, "Brother Zhang, what are you doing?"
"This stone is ruining my good deeds!" Zhang Doufu picked up the stone tablet and said, "I'm going to smash it!"
You Xiangui reached out and hugged the other end of the stone tablet and said, "You can't smash it. This is an old thing. It can be sold for a lot of money!"
"Then who's responsible if this broken stone breaks my tooth?" Zhang Tofu refused to give up. As he spoke, blood-stained saliva was sprayed from his mouth.
When he said this, You Xiangui persuaded him in a good voice: "Your Excellency has a lot of money, why do you have to deal with a stone?"
"Ah, stop talking nonsense like this to me. My teeth are expensive. You don't have to throw the stone, but you have to pay me!"
You Xiangui asked casually: "How much?"
"Ten thousand!"
You Xiangui opened his eyes wide, "You're such a lion, you're so open-mouthed!"
That stone tablet may not be worth that price.
“I’ve lost all my front teeth!”
"That's your business!"
"Can you say that again?"
"Get out of the way!"
"%...&*" was followed by a curse word. Both of them were drunk. Who was willing to give in for money? They soon started fighting.
When Gui Laoliu, who was watching the excitement outside, saw this, she no longer had to do anything. While the two were fighting, she sneaked into the house and asked me, "Where did You Xiangui hide that thing?"
I made a condition: "Let me go, and I will take you there!"
Gui Laoliu was not stupid, so she said, "How do you know if you are lying to me?"
"What are you doing, Old Liu, how can anyone escape from your grasp in Fushan District?" I held her in my arms deliberately.
Gui Laoliu also thought this was the case when she heard it. To be on the safe side, she didn't untie the rope on my hand and just took me out of my house in the chaos.
It was already dark. The village where I grew up was so quiet on the surface, but it made me feel strange. I took a deep breath of cold air and heard the phone on Gui Laoliu ringing. After she took it out and answered it, she said respectfully. Say to the person on the other end of the phone: "It'll be there soon. I'll take care of it. Don't worry! Okay! Okay!"
She hung up the phone and urged me: "Take me there quickly. When the matter is done, I will let you go!"
"Okay!" Although I don't believe a word of this old woman's words, now I can only take one step at a time!
Soon after, I took her to the door of Widow Wang’s house, “The thing is inside!”
Gui Laoliu looked at me suspiciously, "You don't know how to frame me, do you?"
She pushed me hard and led me towards the house. The lights were on and Widow Wang was at home at this time.
"How are you going to get that thing? If you dare to touch You Xiangui's things, he can let you leave the village?" I said this deliberately.
Gui Laoliu smiled and said, "I have my own way."
"Don't go in, you must not go in -" Suddenly, a female voice behind me said anxiously to me.
I looked back and saw that it was the poor female soul who had talked to me before on the donkey cart. Her face was full of terror at the moment, as if there was some wild beast in the house!
