Chapter 572: Borrowing the Name of the Mountain God
Chapter 572 In the name of the mountain god
Just as he was about to get up, he opened his mouth and sneezed with a "sneeze" sound. I lay down again and probed my head with the back of my hand, and found that I had a slight fever. I guess it was because I suffered a severe cold yesterday afternoon and suffered a severe fright at night. The cold and heat attacked my heart and made me catch a cold. ,
Zhao Jianhui, who had not known what a cold smelled like for many years, realized that he felt a little dizzy when he got up. It looked like this after taking a cold shower. It looked like my body needed some exercise.
In fact, he didn't know that if most people often have a little cold, even if they catch a cold, it won't be too serious. But for people like him who don't usually get sick, if they get angry and get sick, it will almost kill them. He just felt that the dizziness was better now. If he hadn't been strong and had the skills to practice Qi, he might not have been able to get up at this time.
Shaking his head, he felt more and more heavy. The door was opened, and it was not Yang Yalan who walked in, but her daughter Xianghuaer who was as beautiful as a flower. Seeing this girl, he suddenly thought of the scene with him yesterday. Zhao Jianhui turned around in embarrassment. At this moment, the annoying sneeze sounded again.
Xianghua'er walked over, knelt down behind him, reached out and touched his forehead: "Ah... uh uh..." and gestured to Zhao Jianhui twice. Only then did Zhao Jianhui remember that Man Xin said that his brother Man Xiaotian went to the mountains to collect medicine just to treat this girl's mute disease.
It would be a pity for such a beautiful girl to really be unable to speak.
Huahua'er hurriedly walked to the fire pit, poured the hot water from the pot into the basin, brought it back to her side, and wiped him with a hot towel. Zhao Jianhui didn't know what this little girl meant, so he let Hua Hua'er play with him. The little girl washed his face carefully, and creped up a towel to wipe his palms. Looking at the soft movements of her hands, Zhao Jianhui thought to himself that girls from the mountains are still gentle. There are not many little girls in the city who are willing to do this. This kind of work.
Seeing Zhao Jianhui's eyes constantly scrutinizing herself, Xianghuaer burst out laughing, threw the towel into the basin and washed it, then wring it out, folded the towel into a long and thin strip and put it on Zhao Jianhui's chest. Above the forehead.
Seeing the little girl busy doing this and that for him, Zhao Jianhui looked at Xianghua'er to express his gratitude and asked: "Thank you, why did you fall into the river yesterday?"
Xianghua'er retracted the small hand on her forehead and looked at Zhao Jianhui in silence. Zhao Jianhui asked again: "Are you feeling better today?" Xianghua'er still remained silent. Zhao Jianhui couldn't help but burst out laughing. Just now he thought that this girl had become ill and lost her voice. He kept asking people, no wonder Huahua'er didn't answer him.
The door was pushed open with a bang, "Secretary Zhao, you're up." Yang Yalan walked in and said hello as if nothing happened last night, still with a smile on her face.
Zhao Jianhui felt a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, he felt calm. "Well, Sister Yalan. Just now I asked Vanilla what you were doing."
"She became mute after she got sick and had a fever. If you ask her anything, she won't answer you." Yang Yalan reached out her hand and wiped Xianghua'er's shoulder lovingly, and then said: "By the way, hurry up Let’s go out to eat. I’ve gathered all the villagers. After dinner, we have to go worship the mountain god.”
Xianghua'er ran to her mother and gestured. Yang Yalan looked at Zhao Jianhui and asked, "Secretary Zhao, are you sick?"
"It's okay. I got a little cold when I went down to the river yesterday. Just drink some ginger tea when I go back. Since you have gathered all the villagers, let's come back and have dinner... Let's go, do business first." Zhao Jianhui said as he said , while taking off the towel on his head and handing it to Vanilla's hand, he followed Yang Yalan and walked out.
After exiting the room, he saw Xu Jinhong standing outside waiting for him. This woman lowered her head and almost didn't dare to look at Zhao Jianhui. The shyness on her face and the secret smile she was holding back made Zhao Jianhui unable to speak to him at all. And angry. "Director Xu, did you bring your mobile phone? Call Xiao Li and ask if he and Xiao Lin are here?"
"They are already here, waiting for you in the house where I live...Zhao Jianhui, this is all my fault. I didn't know you didn't understand the customs of this place..." Listening to Zhao Jianhui's unkind tone, Xu Jinhong felt relieved After thinking about it clearly, we can't pretend to be confused about this matter. We should explain it clearly to Secretary Zhao in person. Although there are people above him, if a municipal party committee secretary really holds a grudge against him, he probably won't get much good out of him.
"Hmph, stop talking. Things are not what you think. You will know after you ask Yang Yalan later. Go ahead and call Lin Yan. Did he find what I asked him to find?" Zhao Jianhui stopped. , waiting for Zhao Jianhui to call Lin Yan over. Without the things Lin Yan brought, the magic would not be possible in a while.
After waiting for less than five minutes, Lin Yan trotted up to Zhao Jianhui and secretly handed over a small paper bag: "Secretary Zhao, this is the alkaline noodle you want, do you think it looks like this? "
"Nonsense, what else can alkaline noodles look like?" Zhao Jianhui said angrily, and followed Yang Yalan up the hillside with a few strides.
When they arrived at the mountain god temple, the man who was performing the ritual was instigating the crowd. From a distance, they could hear him saying that it was not the season to disturb the mountain god. However, the stranger insisted that Village Chief Yang order him to pray to the god. He had no other choice. If it brought disaster to the people in the village, it would be a matter of extermination.
Under his instigation, the people in the village gathered under the stage to discuss, and some even shouted loudly, asking Yang Yalan not to worship the mountain god at this time. Yang Yalan stood on the platform and shouted, "Everyone, please be quiet. Secretary Zhao from the city will tell us a few words."
"We don't want to listen. What can a foreigner say?"
"Yes, there are no good officials. Get him out..."
Looking at the angry crowd below the platform, Zhao Jianhui smiled and shouted loudly, "Fellow villagers, hello. My name is Zhao Jianhui. I am the secretary of the municipal party committee. I shouldn't have come to your village, but I had a dream the night before yesterday. In the dream, the mountain god asked me to save someone. I came here with the driver yesterday afternoon, and sure enough, Xiangcao fell into the river. This dream is really true."
"Ah, so that's the case. I was wondering how he could have saved Xiangcao by chance?" The ignorant people were fooled by Zhao Jianhui's words. Everyone looked at Zhao Jianhui in silence.
"Our Jinping Village has been a treasure land that gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth since ancient times, but in recent years, why are more and more children born with disabilities? Why is life not only not getting better but getting worse? Why are young people leaving their hometowns? Have you ever thought about this truth?" Zhao Jianhui asked loudly on the stage.
None of the low-level people thought about this question, and everyone looked at each other and couldn't answer.
"Yes, I didn't know it before, but the mountain god said that this is because the feng shui here has been destroyed." Zhao Jianhui said, pointing to the mountain in the south and asked: "Everyone, look, what does the road on that mountain look like?"
Everyone turned their heads to look along Zhao Jianhui's finger, and some people even put their hands on the pergola to look carefully. From the current position, the road circling on the top of the mountain is like a winding giant snake coiled on the top of the mountain. Some people looked back after a long while and said, "Oh my god, it looks like a giant python..."
"Yes, this fellow villager is very accurate. Look at the mountain road in the distance, do you think there is a giant snake? And the snake's weak spot is right here in Jinpingzhai Village. The mountain god told me that his temple is on the giant python, and he can't sit still if the snake turns over. So he told me that he really wants to move to a safe place, far away from the giant python. The feng shui of this place has changed. This is our treasure land. If you don't move away, your future life will be even more difficult."
The villagers around him were a little agitated by his words.
"Well, what this person said makes sense."
"That's right. The baby born in Erwa's family in the front village is blind."
"What should we do?"
"Let's ask the wizard. He will always have a way."
"Fellow villagers, your ancestors will never forget the contributions they made to the victory of the revolution decades ago. Today I am here to solve the problems you are facing and let everyone live a good life. We can block the original mountain road, build a road here, and cut off the snake's body. Last night, the mountain god came to me in a dream again, saying that he couldn't wait any longer, and maybe the python would turn over soon. Whether we all want to move or not, we should listen to what the mountain god says. Next, let's ask the great wizard to talk to the mountain god. If the mountain god still disagrees, the wine will turn red. If the mountain god agrees, the wine will turn blue. Folks, do you agree with this method?"
"Okay, it's originally like this." The low-level people answered in unison. Zhao Jianhui signaled Yang Yalan to let the wizard still dance with the mask on. Seeing him put a large transparent glass jar on the altar in front of the mountain god statue, he pretended to pay tribute to the mountain god, put his hands together in front of the statue, and said a few words in a babble. Seeing the big wizard throw the burning yellow paper into the wine jar, Zhao Jianhui shook his hand, and the paper bag given to him by Lin Yan flew in.
The wine jar was on the high platform, and the people below could see it clearly. Just watching the rice wine inside slowly turn a little red at the beginning, the onlookers just shouted in surprise, and then the wine in the jar slowly became pure and colorless, and then the colorless rice wine like clear water turned into dark blue.
"Uh-huh..." Seeing the result, the people below cheered. Perhaps, walking out of the mountains has long been their dream in their hearts, but due to the supreme power of the mountain god, no one dared to say it. The great wizard lowered his head and sweated coldly, glancing at Zhao Jianhui with a bit of resentment.
Zhao Jianhui sneered: "Great wizard, let me talk to you first, we will have more to talk about later."
"Fellow villagers, when I return to the county, I will ask the county cadres to hold a meeting to discuss the road construction. As for all the expenses for relocating the graves, they will all be borne by the county. Please ask the great wizard to find another Feng Shui treasure land as a cemetery. I promise you that within three years, your lives will change dramatically." Zhao Jianhui added another sentence, and this time, the cheers from the people below the stage became even louder.
Please give me flowers and votes. Don’t forget to hit me.
