The blazing flames illuminated the darkness, and the light shone on Meng Fei's face, making it dim and expressionless.
At this time, a sound of light footsteps came from behind Meng Fei.
Meng Fei looked back and saw the Second Master walking towards him with a hunched back, also holding a thick stack of paper money in his hand.
"Second Master." Meng Fei greeted him and made way.
The Second Master nodded in reply, knelt on the cold snow, spread out the paper money in his arms with one hand, and threw them into the fire one by one.
The Second Master didn't say a word, but just stared blankly at the blazing flames, lost in thought.
After a while, the paper money was burned out and the fire gradually weakened, leaving only ashes on the ground, still flashing with flames.
At this time, the Second Master spoke quietly: "Dog... Do you think I have a bad fate? Whoever I choose will die?"
Meng Fei took a deep breath and shook his head: "Second Master, please don't think too much about it. This has nothing to do with you........."
Erye didn't reply, he stood up and turned to walk home.
Meng Fei followed closely behind and sent the Second Master back home.
As soon as I entered the house, it was freezing cold. Everything was cold. It seemed that the second master had not lit the stove since he came back during the day.
Meng Fei sighed and helped the second master light the kang and the stove. After the room became warm, he left with peace of mind.
In this weather of more than 30 degrees below zero, if you don't light the stove at night, you will be frozen solid by the next morning.
"Second Master, I'm going back now. You should go to bed early and stop thinking too much."
Meng Fei instructed before leaving.
"Well, go back. Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself..."
Meng Fei nodded, turned and left.
After returning home, Meng Fei tossed and turned on the kang, unable to fall asleep.
As soon as I close my eyes, I see the figures of Feng Shuyi and his grandmother.
Finally I had no choice but to get up and take two melatonin tablets before I could barely fall asleep.
The next morning, before dawn, Meng Fei opened his eyes.
I really have something on my mind and can't sleep.
After getting up, Meng Fei put on his coat and went out, intending to see how the second master was doing.
As soon as he went out, he saw smoke coming out of the chimney of the second master's house, and Meng Fei finally felt relieved.
When I pushed the door open and entered the room, I saw Erye rinsing a rag in a basin with one hand. The room was cleaned by Erye. It seemed that he had been busy all night.
Seeing Meng Fei coming, Erye greeted him with a smile.
"Oh my! The dog is here! Look how neat my room is! Isn't it neat? I tell you, my room hasn't been so neat for decades."
Meng Fei's heart trembled and he felt a little distressed.
"Come, Master Er, I'll help you rinse the rag."
Meng Fei hurried forward to help the Second Master wring out the rag in the basin, and helped the Second Master wipe the half-wiped cabinet clean.
After wiping, Meng Fei sat next to the Second Master and took a handful of pine nuts from his pocket and handed them to the Second Master.
Erye took the pine nuts and began to eat them with relish.
"By the way, Gouzi, aren't we going to the county today? What time are we leaving?"
"Any time is fine. We can set off after Uncle and Aunt wake up. There's no need to rush. I heard that there are big markets every day during the New Year period, and it's very lively."
The Second Master nodded and said, "Well, let's wait until your Second Uncle and the others wake up. You sit for a while, and I'll go chop some wood."
After saying that, the second master left the house.
Meng Fei sighed and followed the Second Master out the door.
After working for a while, the two of them were sweating and steaming all over.
The Second Master seemed tired. He stopped what he was doing, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly.
"Huh~~~~ Gouzi, I've figured it out. People need to look forward and not always live in the past."
Meng Fei was delighted after hearing this.
But before Meng Fei could speak, the Second Master continued.
"Dog, what procedures do I need to go through to go abroad now? I want to go out and see the outside world."
"Going abroad??? You usually need a passport and a visa to go abroad, but some countries are visa-free for China. By the way, which country are you planning to go to?"
Erye's expression flickered, and he said tentatively: "Well...what if we go to Plaster Country?"
Hearing the word Plaster Country, Meng Fei looked at the Second Master with a strange expression.
"Second Master...you are not going to the Plaster Country to seek revenge, are you?"
When the Second Master saw that Meng Fei had discovered his plan, he nodded, exhaled fiercely, and whispered.
"Damn it!!! The Japanese destroyed me once 50 years ago, and now I am almost buried, and they destroyed me again, and even killed your grandma Feng!! We can't just let this go!! I have only one old bone, so if it breaks, it's fine. When the time comes, I can make my money back by killing one, and I'll make a profit if I kill two!! Especially that Yasukuni Shrine! I must shit and smear it on his door!!!"
Meng Fei shook his head and advised: "Second Master...you should just enjoy your old age at home...Although you are quite skilled now, the Japanese are not pushovers. If you go there alone, you will be targeted as soon as you land. Leave this matter to me. I will plan it and I will definitely satisfy you."
The second master glanced at Meng Fei, and seeing Meng Fei's determined eyes, he believed what he said.
After all, he knew Meng Fei's methods, and they were definitely much stronger than his own.
"Okay, that's it for now. I'll wait for your good news. Let's go. I'm hungry after working all night. My hands are not very convenient. Gouzi, please make me some porridge. Oh, by the way, there are salted duck eggs under the bowl rack. Let's cook a few."
