Doomed Destiny - C77
The eyes in the sky were also of a normal appearance. The dark pupils were embedded in the white eyes. Black and white. However, the area it covered was extremely large, almost occupying half of the southern sky. His eyes were sharp and he exuded a powerful aura. When I saw him, my heart sank and my soul seemed to be about to break apart. Fortunately, it only lasted for a split-second. After the flash of lightning, I was no longer able to see it.
The night sky was still clear and full of stars. It was as if there was a sudden clap of thunder and a bolt of lightning in the sky.
But in this world, there was no such thing as for no reason or reason at all. Even if you let out a breath or sneezed, it wouldn’t be for no reason. If you breathe out, you breathe out. If you breathe out, you can live. You sneeze because of the irritation in your nasal cavity. If you don’t sneeze, you will suffer.
You have to believe it. This day, this place did not exist for no reason. There was also the vast universe and countless stars. Everything, big or small, would not exist for no reason.
I wrapped Xiao Jun up in quilt once again, leaving only his head exposed. He went back to the living room of the San Geda. Er Nengdan came over to take a look at my chest, to say that this child’s drowsiness was really great, and in such a short time he fell asleep again.
Second King brought Doctor Wang from the Qin Stronghold Village home. This Doctor Wang was lying on the bed moaning. When Chao Xixi who was constantly humming non-stop to check on her injuries, Er Gankou farted loudly. It sounded like a cannon shot. Dr. Wang, who was very serious, trembled in fear. He forced a smile and said, “The fart doesn’t sound good. The fart doesn’t smell bad!”
The San Geda sneered and said, “Do you think my Er Xiao’s Stinky Vajra nickname is for nothing?!”
After a while, the entire room was filled with a heavy stench. It was like a rotten egg placed in front of someone’s nose. Second King Kong stood at the side with his arms crossed and a proud smile on his face. Da Laozhu also did the same. However, the sound was far inferior to that of Er Jingjie’s.
After some inspection. Dr. Wang was right about suturing wounds, giving tetanus shots, and taking anti-inflammatory drugs.
“How much does it cost?” San Geda asked.
“At least ten!”
“So many!” San Geda frowned.
Er Nengdan said: “Go ahead and use the best medicine! Don’t save me! “How much do you want me to pay for it!?”
“You are the famous Jin Yunshan?” Doctor Wang stood up from the chair, obviously showing a lot more respect towards Er Nengdan.
“Yes, it’s me!” Er Nengdan took out a cigarette and threw it over, then lit one himself. Doctor Wang’s hands shot forward to catch the cigarette. He did not immediately smoke it, but instead stuck it in his ear. Causing the San Geda to be dissatisfied, saying how did you manage to get past your Third Uncle even if you wanted to say hi. Er Nengdan directly threw the cigarette box onto his table. The box that was just ripped open was still mostly empty.
Doctor Wang said, “You, Jin Yunshan, are quite a character! His name was well-known! I’ve heard a lot about you! Young people all view you as their idol! ”
Er Nengdan laughed, flicked his cigarette, and said: In the future, if there’s anything you need help with, you can find me. He would definitely be able to help! Um, you stay busy for now, I have to go back to sleep, I still have to get my brother engaged tomorrow morning. You don’t have to worry about the treatment fee. The only thing I can give you is how much I will pay you! ”
“That’s right, that’s right! Who would not trust you, Jin Yunshan! Take care! ”
After returning home, I placed the bundled up Xiao Jun on the bed and hoarded a hoard of things inside the bed. Then, I sat in the middle of the bed and asked Er Nengdan to bring a blanket for me. Er Nengdan said that we could take apart the blankets wrapped around Xiao Jun and cover the three of us together. When I say that the Xiao Jun is warm from being wrapped up, you open it up for him and see what happens if he catches a cold. Therefore, Er Nengdan took a new blanket and spread it on the bed, laying down and covering himself.
After waiting for a long time. I heard Er Nengdan snoring evenly. He knew that he had fallen asleep. The light bulb was still on. The custom of this place, the first night of marriage, the new room cannot be turned off. I took the book out of my pocket and opened the third page. He discovered that only half of the mask had been bitten off. The “black dog” had disappeared.
“Could it be that the black dog was eaten by the dragon?” I whispered to myself.
He then hid the book in his bosom and covered himself with the blanket before falling asleep.
An unknown amount of time passed.
I was in a daze when someone pushed me and woke me up. As Er Nengdan dressed himself, he urged, “Wake up quickly! It was already 5 o’clock! In a moment, all the waiting cars arrived. Hurry up and wash up, and get dressed up! ” He stretched out his arm again to poke at Xiao Jun who was bundled up into a ball, and shouted: “Hurry and get up! “The sun is setting on my ass!”
I turned my head and looked outside. The sky was still dark, so I said I’d let him sleep a little longer since it wasn’t a big deal for him to get married.
Er Nengdan put on his clothes, tore off some toilet paper and went out.
In this village, only Er Nengdan had brought out the soft, snow-white toilet paper. The other families used corn buns. Wipe the buttocks with a skin or corncob. There were also people who put a pile of dirt in the toilet. It was more comfortable to use the soil to wipe the butt.
I sat up in bed and began to dress.
The sky turned bright. More and more people came. Almost the entire village had gathered. It was very noisy. Er Nengdan carried a big leather bag, with a handful of Sweet Rice and Peanut. Everyone was flustered. They squeezed each other, pushed each other, hit their butts with their shoulders, and fell on their backs as they fought over the Sweet ‘n’ Sour Rice and Peanut Rice.
Sugar and peanuts were absolutely good in the eighties. People don’t eat much sugar a year. Whoever poured a bowl of boiling water containing a pinch of white sugar would be better than the other person. Let alone Peanut. At that time, this area had not yet been popularly planted, so anyone who saw peanuts would feel that it was rare. Those who grew crops relied on the heavens to survive. Even if someone was willing to bury a few peanuts inside, they would basically be unable to harvest any more. Peanut can only be fed in areas where the weather is smooth and the sand is sandy.
A few of the men, red-faced and red-faced, had even broken into a row over sugar and peanuts. The Second Energy Egg walked over with a straight face and scolded, “On my brother’s wedding day, no one is allowed to cause any trouble. Otherwise, get the hell out of here! It’s just a small matter, a country bumpkin. Just for a few pieces of candy and a few pieces of peanuts, can’t you grab some from each of your bags?
The brawlers grabbed a handful of peanuts or sugar from their bags and became honest and happy.
The rest of them saw the imbalance in their minds and rushed up, clawing at their bags with their hands. After a while, he grabbed the bag and emptied it. The purse was also torn apart.
Back then, buying a purse was no less than now spending ten thousand dollars on a fur coat.
Er Nengdan didn’t mind at all as he laughed heartily and threw his bag of holding onto the wall. He shouted loudly, “Fellow villagers, don’t worry. In a while, he would set up a table, serve the chicken and duck meat, as well as the wine. Everyone would eat and drink as they pleased! “Don’t go home if you can’t hold it!”
Everyone burst into cheers.
I stood in a corner that no one noticed, and silently observed Er Nengdan with extremely complicated feelings. For such a person, no one supported him!
He’s only twenty years old! This kind of grandeur and boldness were born from the depths of one’s bones. He was destined to be the greatest of his generation.
But I knew that his fate would soon be turned around in a very serious way. Because he met me.
“Brother!” What are you waiting for, are you ready? It’s time to go! ” Er Nengdan stood at the door of the living room and shouted at me.
“Un, alright, let’s go!”
Er Nengdan pulled me away from the crowd, out of the courtyard, and out of the alley again, onto the main street. There was already a long line of cars parked on the street. There were a dozen brand-new green Jeeps with a large, gleaming white sedan in the middle: the Toyota Crown. Of all the carriages, it was the most eye-catching.
People were pointing excitedly at the cars. Someone could not help it, pointed to the white crown and asked Er Nengdan, “How much does this car cost?”
“It’s expensive! The three hundred thousand yuan of imports! ”
The person who asked and the people listening in were shocked.
Who in the world can afford it?” Those who are able to afford the crown are either rich or wealthy! ” A man with an extraordinary temperament, dressed in a black, neatly pressed Chinese tunic, with a hair cut in the middle of his head, and a face as pale as paper, with a camera around his neck, said.
Er Nengdan looked at him and asked: “Who are you? How come I’ve never seen you before?”
The man with the split hair laughed and said: “I heard of Jin Yunshan’s great reputation and came uninvited! When he saw the real person, his bearing was indeed extraordinary. He was incomparably heroic! I can take your pictures for free! ”
“I saw you at my house yesterday! I was too busy to ask who you were. When I have time to ask you, I can’t find you! ” Er Nengdan said while smiling as he took out a cigarette and handed it over.
The man didn’t answer, but waved his hand and said I didn’t smoke.
“How can I let you waste your time?” Go ahead and take pictures. How much is how much is how much. I won’t miss a single point to you! ” Er Nengdan said.
The man held up the camera and clicked several times at me.
I got into the back of the Crown Vic. Er Nengdan sat in the front passenger seat.
With a whistle, the convoy set off.
The group specially made a big circle. The roads were rare at that time. Few in the country. All dirt roads. It was a bumpy ride. He was about to fall asleep while sitting in the car. Just as they reached the main street of the Wang Zhai Village, they stopped beside the bride’s house. Naturally, there were a lot of villagers watching from the sidelines as they pointed and discussed among themselves.
I entered the west room of the barricade and saw the bride, Xia Lu. With the money, she had also gotten dressed up. She was dressed in maroon plaid pants and a fire-red hand-made cotton jacket. There were several bows of different colors and shapes pinned to her short hair. She was wearing a pair of black high-heeled shoes. Standing in the crowd, she was very tall. Even if she was uncultured, her delicate and pretty face made her look very elegant.
After the crowd pushed us around for a while, we finally made a ruckus. I then led Xia Lu onto the carriage. Sitting on the carriage, she leaned her butt against the leather seat and patted the back of the seat in front of her with all her might. “Second Brother, this car is not bullies! Buy this for us! ”
Er Nengdan who was sitting in the front seat turned his head and laughed bitterly: “Sister-in-law, I am not some king! I can’t afford this crown! ”
“I don’t want a crown, not the empress. It’s useless on my head. I want a big car! ” Xia Lu said.
Er Nengdan said: “I’ll take a look at it for you two in a few days, see if I can buy a car with noodles for you two!”
“I want this kind of car!” Aren’t you rich! Why can’t you even afford to buy this car! ”
“Sister-in-law, three hundred thousand yuan, where do you think I should go get it!”
Xia Lu stuck out her tongue in fright, shrank her neck and did not say another word.
After a while, she asked again, “Second Brother, what kind of car is that?”
Er Nengdan said: “There are also four of them.
“Then I can buy a noodle!” Just make do with it! ”
The driver of the Toyota Crown Vic couldn’t help but ask, “You call it just passable? “Then, will we insignificant people still be able to live on?!”
In the mid-1980s, who could afford an Audi A6L was no less than they could buy an Audi A6L now.
The convoy stopped when they were still some distance away from the village entrance. It turned out that there was someone blocking their way. Through the car window, he saw the San Geda leading a few men and running along the side of the road, looking panicked. He went up to the car and banged on the window. Just as the car window was closing, Er Nengdan asked.
San Geda panted heavily as he slapped his leg and said, “Little … Xiao Jun is gone! “
