Chapter 13 Something Happened Again...
When a group of people sent Wang Qiang to the mountain, they returned to Wang's house and began to disperse.
Lin Qingzhi supported his uncle and was walking home.
On a low mountain more than 20 miles away from Ping'an Town, there is a temple called "Taohua Temple".
The low mountain is called Taohua Mountain. A few decades ago, a scholar planted peach blossoms on this mountain because he missed his wife.
Taohua Temple is very new and was built a few decades ago.
There are not many monks in the temple. In addition to an abbot, there are only two young monks.
The green lamp and the ancient Buddha are also three hard monks.
Many aunts in Ping'an Town believe in this temple very much and say it is very effective. No, Aunt Lin Yushi went to the temple with several aunts in the village to pray for a child because Shitou had been married for so long and still had no son.
Linjiang Village is not far from Taohua Mountain.
It is more than ten miles away, but because of Luojiang, the fastest journey is to take a ferry.
A few days had passed since Wang Qiang's incident. On the second day, after the fishermen and ferrymen had found out the news, they had already started to go out. However, when the aunties walked to the dock, they found that there was no fishing boat or ferry on the river, only the river water was flowing slowly. Several people looked at the river without a boat in silence.
I don't know what happened. When they passed by a few days ago, there were still boats sailing on the lake.
Just then.
An old man wearing a bamboo hat came to the small dock. He rolled up his trouser legs and carried a long bamboo pole on his shoulder.
"Brother Wang, why is there no ferry crossing the river today!" Seeing the old man, an auntie in the crowd lit up and shouted loudly.
"Oh! It's Xiao Liu! Where are you going!"
After seeing Aunt Liu, the old man walked up slowly and asked.
"Brother Wang, we want to go to Taohua Temple. There were fishing boats and ferryboats yesterday. Why didn't we see any today?" Aunt Liu asked with some confusion.
"Oh! What a sin! Something happened to the fishing king in your village some time ago, and last night, something happened to Xiaogang in our village. Last night, someone saw a green hand reaching out from the water, grabbing Xiaogang's thigh and pulling him into the water, and he didn't float up in the end..."
When talking about this, the old man slapped his thigh, and then whispered to everyone.
"Ah! Something happened again..."
Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and felt that something was wrong.
For hundreds of years, Luojiang has always been very peaceful, and nothing has happened, but two things have happened in the past few days.
If this is really the case, they really can't go to Taohua Temple.
They can only cross the river to Taohua Mountain after the matter is settled. Otherwise, they can only change another way to go, that is, go to Ping'an Town first, and then go over the Luoshen Bridge outside Ping'an Town.
As a group of women with faith in their hearts, and a group of women praying for their families, this distance is nothing, so after saying goodbye to Old Man Wang, they turned around and walked towards the direction of Ping'an Town.
The news that a fisherman in Wan'an Village was dragged into the water by a water ghost spread like wildfire. In just a few hours, even Lin Qingzhi at home heard the news.
However, he ignored it. Although there is a saying that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, he is a person who will not take the initiative to find trouble until trouble comes to him.
As for reopening the reincarnation, it was because he was afraid that trouble would come to him automatically in the future, and because Wang Qiang, a fisherman, often took care of Lin Qingzhi and his two children, letting him go to reincarnation safely was also a favor to him.
As for the water ghosts in Luojiang, Qian Yi, the night watchman from the Night Watch Department, was responsible.
At the gate of the yard, Lin Fan was once again carried back by Shitou. Lin Qingzhi took Lin Fan with a smile and treated his son's body. Then Lin Qingzhi left the room.
Today he went to cut some bamboo not far from the Luojiang River to make some ground cages and traps.
There has to be an income, and he didn't want to make refined salt and sugar, which was too troublesome, and would definitely attract greedy people, and then there would be trouble again.
He made some traps and traps, put them in Luojiang and the mountains, put some spiritual water that the prey couldn't refuse, caught some prey and big fish to sell for money, and even the villagers would not doubt anything.
Half an hour later, Lin Qingzhi just returned to the yard with a bundle of bamboo, and saw Lin Yaoyao sitting on the steps, holding a small bowl in her hand and eating the food that Lin Qingzhi left for her.
"Yao'er woke up, is the steamed egg delicious?"
Lin Qingzhi asked with a smile after putting down the bamboo.
"Daddy, it's delicious, I want to eat steamed egg tomorrow morning..." Lin Yaoyao said happily, lifting her little face covered with pheasant eggs.
"Okay! Daddy will steam egg for you tomorrow."
Walking forward, Lin Qingzhi took out a small handkerchief from her pocket, wiped her smiling face, and then replied with a smile.
This handkerchief was made when the mother of the two little ones was still alive. His wife had been gone for a year, and no one knew where she was now.
Shaking his head, Lin Qingzhi knew that she would come back one day, so he didn't think about it anymore.
Taking out the hatchet, Lin Qingzhi began to make a trap.
"Daddy, what are you doing!" On the side, Xiao Yaoer squatted beside him and looked at her father's actions with some curiosity.
"Daddy is making traps and ground traps!"
"What are ground traps? Are they delicious?" Xiaoyao raised her head and asked curiously.
"You little foodie, ground traps are inedible."
"Oh! Daddy, why did you make something that is inedible? Isn't this a waste of time?" Xiaoyao pouted and shook her head, feeling that her daddy was stupid.
"Although ground traps are inedible, they can be put at the bottom of the river to catch fish! Then Xiaoyao will have fish to eat, steamed fish, braised fish, fried fish nuggets and many more..."
Lin Qingzhi wanted to tease his woman, and while talking, he described the cooking methods and tastes of those fish.
Every time Lin Qingzhi said the name of a dish, he would see Xiaoyao swallow his saliva, and finally her big eyes stared at Lin Qingzhi, with the words "want to eat" written in her eyes.
"I'll make it for you when daddy catches fish..."
"Yes, yes, yes! Daddy, you must keep your word!"
"Of course, how could daddy lie to such a cute little Yaoer!"
"Hehe... There are fish to eat, and there are many ways to cook them. Daddy is really great. I will tell Xiao Guozi next time I see her, and see if she is greedy..." Hearing her father's words, Xiao Yaoer immediately stood up and turned around.
She is indeed a little foodie. As long as she talks about food, she is very happy.
It was not until noon that Lin Qingzhi finished making four ground traps. As for the small trap, Lin Qingzhi had done the preliminary preparations and installed it directly on the mountain.
