Chapter 44: For Mr. Chestnut
He doesn't know that someone is planning to learn from him. If he knew, he would be speechless.
I have a chestnut to raise, do you have one?
Sometimes, people are just so speechless.
When Yu Zhongdou saw Old Sun's family leaving the village, he thought something had happened to their family, so he kindly reminded them that there were bone-eating ants nearby and they should be careful.
In the end, the other person didn't appreciate it at all and just snorted and left.
Yu Zhongdou:? ? ? ?
Are you sick?
He knew that the Sun family had a bad reputation in the village, but he didn't expect that his kindness could be regarded as such a ruthless person.
I suddenly didn't want to care about it anymore.
Do whatever you want!
The Sun family deserved their bad luck. Yang Xiangwei had asked Carpenter Zhao to carve some smaller amulets, badges, pendants, etc., but he refused because she had to pay for them.
He also gave an irresistible reason: "I know the statue of God works, but this thing is so small, who knows if it works?"
If you don't believe it, what can others do?
It’s up to you.
Why did Yang Xiangwei ask Carpenter Zhao to collect the money?
The reason is simple - if he doesn't charge money, how will he support himself in the future? He couldn't support himself with this, so how could he work diligently to carve things for him in the future?
Therefore, Yang Xiangwei asked Carpenter Zhao to collect the money.
Just remember to burn more incense sticks and offer more good offerings when you consecrate it.
He and the mountain god temple split the profit 3:7.
He has seven and the mountain temple has three.
Carpenter Zhao was shocked: "This... this is not good, right?"
Yang Xiangwei: "What's wrong with that? You find the materials, you do the work, and I'll just help turn on the light."
Yang Xiangwei: "What can a god like me do with the money? In the end, it will be used to build a mountain temple. When you make a lot of money, you will feel bad about it. Then you can donate more money."
Carpenter Zhao: Aren’t mountain god temples and the like built in the village?
Village Chief Wumu: Lord Mountain God, didn’t we build this mountain temple?
Yang Xiangwei: Don’t you know there is a saying that “the economic base determines the superstructure”? As a goddess, I also need to have my own financial power!
Therefore, seeing Yu Zhongdou walking the bone-eating ants like a dog, the Sun family went out with their hoes on their shoulders, hoping for the best. They thought they were quite capable and chose a place where they could not be easily seen by the villagers of Yilan Village to start their work.
When I used the hoe to dig into the soil, I found that it was pretty loose.
Coincidentally, Sun Dashan's hoe just hit the anthill of the bone-eating ant.
The bone-eating ants were just feeling angry and had no place to vent their anger when they suddenly found that their home had been dug up. They became furious and surrounded Old Sun's family and launched a crazy attack.
"Ah... ants! So many ants!"
Seeing a piece of flesh being torn off from Sun Dashan's foot, Mrs. Sun was shocked: "Oh my god! This ant is too fierce! "
"Dashan, run!" Old Sun shouted, dropped his hoe and ran away.
However, he had only run a few steps when he was bitten by bone-eating ants.
“Ah… it hurts!”
"Help!"
…
From a distance, the kiwi thought it heard a sound, but when it raised its head to look, it couldn't see anything and could only lower its head helplessly.
Don’t look at it anymore. If you have time to waste, run back quickly.
After a while, Kiwi saw a man running back, covered in blood, with his calf bones exposed. It was a terrifying sight.
The Kiwi said that it had been standing here for so long, but this was the first time it had seen such a terrifying person!
At the same time, it also saw the bone-eating ants following the man or hanging on him.
For a moment, Kiwi thought: Even if it's to hook me up with food, there's no need to be so hard on yourself, right?
Is the sacrifice so great?
Regardless, when the man approached its attack range, the kiwi stretched out its branches without a word, wrapped around his horns, and moved him in.
It did not let go of any bone-eating ants that were hanging on him or following him in, and dragged them all away.
So, when Yu Zhongdou looked up, he saw a bloody person, and he was almost scared to death.
"Oh my god!"
He sat down on the ground and quickly crawled back.
Mr. Kiwi is crazy!
It actually eats people!
Kiwi shook his head, a little confused: Don’t you care about your people anymore?
It put the man on the ground and pointed a branch at his nose, reminding Yu Zhongdou that the man was still alive and not dead.
Yu Zhongdou: “…”
Woo woo woo...I'm not delicious, don't eat me!
Fortunately, this was not the first time he had dealt with Mr. Kiwi, and he finally realized that Mr. Kiwi was not eating people, but "catching" a person for him to see.
Yu Zhongdou swallowed his saliva and stepped forward nervously: "Master Kiwi, where did you catch this?"
The kiwi shook its branches and told him that it was caught from outside, just like he had before.
Yu Zhongdou didn't understand, but he knew they came from outside. He thought someone was attacking the village, so he went forward to check.
Wait, why does this guy's face look so familiar?
Yu Zhongdou was shocked.
Isn’t this... the son of the old Sun family? !
Damn it!
He remembered watching their whole family go out before, how come they turned into a bloody corpse so quickly? !
Yu Zhongdou didn't dare to delay and immediately shouted for help.
"Someone come, something bad has happened!"
"Someone from Old Sun's family was bitten!"
…
The villagers of Yilan Village who heard the noise rushed over, and when they saw the appearance of Old Sun’s son, they were almost scared to death.
"What... happened?! Did something bite me?!"
Yu Zhongdou: "I don't know. Lord Kiwi dragged it back."
He was originally planning to go out and trap bone-eating ants, but seeing this, he didn't dare to do it anymore.
Because he suspected that the reason why Old Sun’s son was bitten like this was because he learned from him.
If this is the case...
He could well imagine how the Wumu Village Chief would scold him if he knew about this.
But what does this have to do with him?
It wasn't him who asked the Sun family to do this.
"When did he go out? Did anyone see him?"
Yu Zhongdou: "I saw it, and I went out for a while."
"Go and inform his parents."
Yu Zhongdou: "His parents might be outside. I saw them all go out, except for the fat boy in their family..."
Villager: “…”
Why didn’t you say so earlier? !
But they didn't dare to go out and rescue people, so they could only call for the help of the village chief Wumu.
The village chief of Wumu, who was halfway there, hurriedly called his son back to hug the statue, asked which direction Yu Zhongdou was going, and drove him out with his men. Seeing the statue of the deity there, Yu Zhongdou followed as well, along with the young men in the village. Those who had amulets took them, while those who didn't had any took up whatever weapons they were comfortable with, and walked out in a mighty procession.
Of course, they didn't plan to go too far. In case it was a big monster, they still had to have a chance to run back.
Not far away, we saw the bone-eating ants.
Going further, you will see bone-eating ants gnawing on human bones.
The three bodies were basically eaten clean. Looking at the hoes scattered around, the dug-up bone-eating ant nest, and the torn clothes, shoes and socks on the ground, everyone felt creepy.
The angry bone-eating ants discovered the new intruders and became collectively furious. They raised their heads and attacked them.
“Run!”
I don't know who shouted, but everyone didn't bother to resist and ran back.
Oh my goodness! In just a short while, the person was gone. This is too scary! Yu Zhongdou just felt a chill on his back. He really couldn’t figure out why someone died at the hands of bone-eating ants in the blink of an eye, when he had successfully “trapped” some bone-eating ants before? !
The scariest thing is, they eat too fast, right? !
It didn't take long from the time he discovered Lao Sun's son to the time he called the villagers over.
