Coffin of the Nether World - C50

When I heard his words, I could not help but laugh bitterly. I asked him what was so great about me that he wanted to acknowledge me as his boss.

He didn’t say what kind of person he is, but he did whisper to me that if you secretly call me He Fang, then you have to call me boss in front of your little friends.

When we were about to reach the dam, a group of friends suddenly rushed over and shouted at me in unison, “Boss!”

I was a little speechless at their actions, and said to Xiao Wu: “What are you trying to do, didn’t we have to go watch the show? What are they doing here? ”

“Energetic!” Hearing my words, Xiao Wu called out to the strongest child out of the few.

Dazhi straightened his chest and said loudly, “Second Brother, please speak!”

“Big Bro is going to watch the show right now. All of you, get out of the way.”

“Understood, everyone move out of the way!” As he said that, he waved towards the children around him, and they immediately opened up a path for him.

Since I was in a hurry to see what was going on inside, I ignored them.

I didn’t expect my master to be there as well, as if speaking with fairness.

After hearing a few words from them, I seem to have understood what was going on.

This morning, Zhou Li used his identity as the village chief’s son to inform every single family member of Lotus Village to come here for a meeting, telling everyone that the village chief had met with an accident, and had already been sent to the hospital the entire night. Even though no one had gotten anything wrong with it, they could no longer be village chiefs, and now that New Year was approaching, they had to temporarily choose a village chief to take charge of the overall situation.

Although Master was not a native of Lotus Village, Master had always thought that the villagers of Lotus Village had done many good deeds and had never had any conflicts with anyone. Thus, everyone had always decided to have Master be the Village Chief.

Listening up to here, I can almost imagine how much pain Master is currently in. He has always been someone who lives a carefree life, and does not care about too many things. If he was asked to become the village head, he would definitely like to fight against ghosts even more.

But from the looks of it, Big Sister Xiaowen and Zhou Li were actually following everyone’s instructions, and did not take what the previous master said about Zhou Li becoming the village chief to heart.

But I also know that Sister Xiaowen and Zhou Li did it out of good intentions.

I also found it funny to see my master so anxious that he looked like he was about to break out in a sweat.

In the end, he managed to persuade everyone to let Zhou Li, the university student who had studied in the city before, take the position of the village chief.

That night, as Master walked, he told Xiaowen and a lot of things about Feng Shui. As a result, in the future, if the village wanted to do anything, Zhou Li and Xiaowen would know as well. Furthermore, Master would definitely help them secretly in the future.

According to his master, this place was originally a land for gathering wealth. Even if he didn’t use those unorthodox methods, it was only a matter of time before the village became rich.

I saw that even though Master had fought with ghosts, she had never shown such exhaustion. I felt that it was a little funny, and when Big Sister Xiaowen saw me and Master, she waved at me. I also smiled and nodded my head.

“Dr. Li.”

“Dr. Li.”

Xiao Wu and Dongmei, who were following behind me, greeted Master when they saw him. It seems that their parents had told them that they had to greet my Master whenever they saw her.

The teacher nodded and helplessly said to me, “Aiya, these two brats. They clearly promised me and even almost made me, this old man, feel embarrassed!”

I knew he was talking about Zhou Li and Big Sister Xiaowen, but I just smiled and didn’t say anything.

The neighbors next to her said to their master, “Dr. Li, you’re telling the truth too. You have to be embarrassed.”

The master shook his head and said, “Don’t bother with my old bones. When I have nothing to do, I will treat everyone’s illness and drive away the evil spirits. That would be considered a great contribution. As for being the head of the village, that’s one thing.”

After saying that, Master pulled me back, as if he was afraid that we would be dragged back.

It’s not good for Xiao Wu and Dongmei to follow me, so I could only return and meet with their group of children.

In the afternoon, my master took me to town and said that he wanted to buy me some new clothes for New Year’s. After all, it was New Year’s, so I still had to get used to the new rules.

I just remembered the thousand dollars that Big Sister Xiaowen gave me. I quickly took out the money and gave it to Master.

Master said, “Since it is for you, then you should keep it. When you go out in the future, how could I take advantage of you?” Also, don’t look at how poor I am. I’m not lacking in money.

Although it was called a town, it was still a bit forced. This was not that big a deal compared to Lotus Village.

The master dragged the borrowed cart back and forth between the shops on the street.

“Hanging Cannon, Flower Cannon, Couplet, New Year’s incense paper money, hmm your clothes and pants are also bought … Xiao Fang, think about what else you want to buy for me. ”

I was once again rendered speechless by my master. “Master, you don’t have to eat during New Year’s?”

“Oh!” Right, right! “Also food, I have too many things to eat, so I forgot. Oh yeah, there’s also the cannon you are playing with.”

“Master, I’ve grown up already. Why did you buy me a cannon? I’m not playing around with you.”

“I, Xiao Wu, am one year older than you, and in the past few days, I have been following a group of children who use cannons to fry cow dung everyday. Little kid, what are you talking about, when you pick a wife, Master will admit that you grew up, otherwise! Just take the cannons and blow the shit out of them! ”

Master’s words made me lose all my temper.

After the shopping was done, the master took a cart back to the house. On the way, he would occasionally see a couple of people carrying something on a motorcycle coming back to the Lotus Village district, but they would all have to stop and talk a few sentences with the master before continuing.

The next day, is our rural customs, called “Yang Chun”, I do not know if these three words, but every family said so.

It meant cleaning up everything inside and outside the house, including the irrigation ditches and weeds in front of and behind the house. This time, my master said that there were a lot of things to do and thus, for the first time ever, we started to work together.

My master told me that this was to sweep away the bad luck of the past year, to welcome the new year with a new face, to seek great benefits.

I asked Master before, when he always celebrated New Year alone?

Every year, there would always be a family in the village that would invite him to have New Year’s Eve meal with them. Teacher was not a formal person, so whenever someone invited him, he would go.

If I don’t come here this year, I think it’s because Big Sister Xiaowen and the others have to invite master.

Even though I was busy for the rest of the time, I was still quite happy. According to what my master said, using cannons to fry cow dung amidst a group of children’s’ big brother is mighty ‘, I really felt that it was quite easy!

Once, Dongmei did not run in time. The cannon was about to explode, so Xiao Wu pounced and blocked the way between Dongmei and the cow dung. Dongmei was fine, but Xiao Wu’s New Year’s clothes were all blown up full of cow dung.

During the day of the 30th year, I pasted the couplet on. Just as I was about to paste the word “blessing” in my hand, Master called me back and told me, “The word blessing” is pasted upside down. This way, it has the meaning of “blessing” and is also the symbol of good luck. ”

On the night of New Year’s Eve, it seemed like it was only seven o’clock instead of twelve.

Master threw a basket full of paper money at the door and told me to burn it all. It was the new year, so I had to burn some more for these homeless people.

Then there was the food, the wine, and his master poured some of each of them at the door, as he said, “You people are the living sins, you did not live well, you even suffered when you died, New Year’s, drink some wine, eat some good food, you don’t have to go around harming people, you have to accumulate some good fortune, maybe you can go back to reincarnation when you’re lucky.”

Right at this moment, Big Sister Xiaowen and Zhou Li actually carried two buckets and walked over. Teacher and I were a little surprised, isn’t New Year’s Eve supposed to be at home? What are they doing here?

“Dr. Li!”

“Dr. Li!”

My master seemed to have understood something in an instant as he laughed and said, “You two kids, the two of you treated me so badly two days ago.”
