Chapter 93 It’s going to rain heavily
As soon as she said this, the three men standing opposite her were stunned and asked in unison: "Why?"
Yang Daguang looked at Zhao Zhilan in confusion. "Auntie, I found a few wild boars on Tiger Tooth Mountain this morning. But wild boars are not black bears. If we call a few more people, nothing will happen."
Zhao Zhilan shook her head. "It's not about the wild boar. It's likely to rain heavily today. It's too dangerous to go up Tiger Tooth Mountain."
"It's raining heavily?" Dalang glanced out the window. "Mom, how is that possible? The sun is shining brightly outside, how could it possibly rain?"
"Yes, it's already November now." Erlang also said.
Zhao Zhilan waved her hand. "Anything is possible, understand? Besides, Baoya said this, so I have to listen."
As soon as she finished speaking, the three men stared at Baoya.
Baoya felt a little embarrassed when she was stared at, but this was what the big fish in her dream told her. If she saw it, there would be a flood in the city, so she had to believe it.
Zhao Zhilan put her arm in front of Baoya and said, "What are you doing? Stop staring at the child! Baoya and Chenglu went up the mountain and became masters of a reclusive master. They learned a lot from him!"
"It was Baoya who calculated that there would be heavy rain today!" The old woman was quick-witted and brought up the fact that Baoya had become a disciple.
After she said this, the three men fell silent.
Dalang and Erlang were born in the Yun family, so they naturally saw many miraculous things in Baoya. Yang Daguang also witnessed his wife's abdominal pain, which she had endured for several days, and she recovered after eating a piece of candy from Baoya.
Now when I heard Zhao Zhilan talk about the heavy rain, I calmed down and thought about it, and I no longer hesitated.
After all, wild boars are good, but life is more important.
"That's fine," Yun Dalang was the first to answer. "I believe Mother and Baoya are doing this for our own good. I won't be going to Tiger Tooth Mountain today."
"Then I won't go either." Yun Erlang also said.
Zhao Zhilan and Baoya looked at Yang Daguang together.
Yang Daguang scratched his head: "Haha... Auntie, I won't go either. I still have a wife and son."
"Let's talk about it after today. If those wild boars run away, I will have no chance to catch them."
"I'm glad you've figured it out." Zhao Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she thought of another thing. If this was true, it would be better for the third family not to go to the town for the time being.
She lowered her head and met Baoya's gaze.
Zhao Zhilan pinched the little bun on Baoya's head and said, "Grandma knows. I'll tell your parents later that the shop will be closed for a day. It's no big deal."
"Yeah!" Baoya nodded vigorously.
After stopping her uncles, second uncle and Uncle Yang, she was no longer panicked.
Now that the decision has been made, Yang Daguang no longer hesitated: "Okay, old aunt, I'll go home first."
Zhao Zhilan nodded and asked Dalang to send it off.
When I opened the back door, I saw several men from the village standing outside with hoes on their shoulders.
Yang Daguang: ...
"On my way to your house, I met some people working in the fields. They asked me about it, so I just told them about it."
He turned his head to look at Zhao Zhilan who was standing behind him and said embarrassedly.
Zhao Zhilan also had a headache looking at the four men standing at the door.
These people don't know about Bao Ya's many miraculous things, and they are not as easy to convince as Yang Daguang. Even if they bring up the story of Bao Ya becoming his apprentice, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
"Grandma, why don't we ask the village head to come over?" Baoya pulled the corner of Zhao Zhilan's clothes and said in a low voice.
Zhao Zhilan nodded. This was the only way at the moment. As long as they could convince the head of the village, they could let him convince everyone else. It would be much simpler than talking to everyone one by one.
Since she had made the decision, she told Yang Daguang, Dalang and Erlang about the idea, asking them to hold these people back first while she took Baoya to find Liu Lizheng.
Although some of them didn't have much interaction with her family, they were all from the same village. She couldn't just watch them go to their deaths. She would stop as many as she could, otherwise she would feel guilty.
Zhao Zhilan quickly took Baoya to Liu Lizheng's house at the west end of the village. The old man was playing with his little grandson in the house and was a little surprised to see Zhao Zhilan bringing Baoya.
Zhao Zhilan told Liu Lizheng that it might rain heavily today, but she did not mention Baoya's dream. She said that it was calculated by the master Baoya worshipped.
Fortunately, Liu Lizheng is a calm and thoughtful person. He cannot be careless about matters involving human lives.
So, he pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, please don't bother Auntie to take Baoya on this trip. I'll go with you and persuade them."
The three men came back quickly. Yang Daguang, Dalang and Erlang were still chatting with those men, but the number of people had increased from four to ten.
Zhao Zhilan was speechless. After so many years of drought, no one had much money or food at home. When encountering such a thing, naturally everyone wanted to go.
She held Baoya and followed Liu Lizheng, and those people stopped.
When Yang Daguang saw them coming, his eyes lit up: "Old Auntie, Liu Lizheng, you are finally here! I have been trying to persuade them for a long time, but they won't listen!"
"The more I persuade people, the more they want to go..."
Liu Lizheng was a skinny old man. He stood in the crowd with his hands behind his back and coughed, "Let's go to Huya Mountain. You all need to take a break. It might rain heavily today. It's too dangerous to go up the mountain."
"How is that possible?" One of the men in a blue shirt said, "Don't try to fool me, village head! It's already November, how can it rain?"
"This was calculated by Master Baoya, a master who lives in seclusion in the mountains. It cannot be false." said Liu Lizheng.
"But the calculations of this expert may not be accurate!" others said immediately.
"But what's the old saying? It's better to believe it than not to believe it. If it rains heavily and something happens to you on the mountain, it will be too late to regret it!"
Liu Lizheng said with a stern face, "You all understand this principle, don't you? It's for the sake of these wild boars that they lost their lives. It's better for you to stay at home and be safe. Think about it carefully!"
Having said that, those who had acted impulsively at the beginning began to hesitate.
Yes, even if it didn’t rain today, they would just not have hunted any wild boars, and their lives would go on as before, so they wouldn’t have lost anything.
But if you go, although there is a possibility of hunting wild boars, if you are not careful, you may lose your life.
Yang Daguang, Dalang and Erlang naturally took the lead in saying they would not go, and Qian Dacai was among them and followed suit, saying he would not go.
As for the husband of the loudmouth Wang Yuqin, after thinking it over, he decided not to go either. He has a wife and three children at home. If he dies, how will they live?
Two more people said they didn't want to go, but there were still many people who insisted on going, and in the end there were only five left.
Moreover, the first person to bear the brunt of the attack was Wu Ergou, the notorious gangster in the village.
Wu Ergou is already in his thirties and still hasn't found a wife. His parents died of anger at him a few years ago, leaving him alone at home.
At this moment, his eyes widened: "Liu Lizheng, don't say that. You have families and are afraid of losing your lives, but I'm alone, I'm not afraid. Anyway, I'm going!"
After he said that, Liu Lizheng had nothing to say.
At this moment, a shrill female voice rang out from the side: "Go! How can we not go? My Changshui is going too!"
"Don't listen to what Li Zheng is saying! How could it rain on a sunny day? I think some people are just being selfish and are stopping us from going so they can keep the wild boars for themselves!"
