Eunuch Shi (8)

Eunuch Shi (8)

This was the second time Luo Yi heard someone mention Eunuch Shi. After asking her aunt, she learned that Eunuch Shi was in Jingjinshi. Luo Yi decided to take a look, so she took Kang Lele and Li Wenyu directly to Jingjinshi. Li Wenyu was dumbfounded when he looked at the steep long slope in front of him and the all-stone path.

"No way, we want to walk up there?"

"You can choose to climb up." Luo Yi turned back and smiled at Li Wenyu. She knew that Li Wenyu, the rich second generation, was spoiled by his family. He only drove when he went out and was not used to walking so many roads.

Kang Le was happy to see Li Wenyu being teased by Luo Yi and said with a smile: "Otherwise, you can just wait for us here."

"No... I'd better go with you." Li Wenyu doesn't want to act alone. Once a case occurs, it will definitely not be simple. He is here to investigate this case again, in case he is killed by a murderer hiding in the dark. He died unjustly, so he decided to go together, but he couldn't figure out why Luo Yiming knew that the big dragon walking in the square was Suspect Lan Dalong, but he didn't follow him, but ran away Come here. "There's something I can't understand, idol."

"If you didn't ask, I wouldn't know what problems you encountered?" Luo Yixiao looked at Li Wenyu.

Li Wenyu touched his head, looked at Luo Yi and replied: "Why don't we follow Lan Long and come here instead?"

"The answer is simple. Lan Dalong can't run away. It doesn't matter if he goes later."

"This one can't run either..." Li Wenyu was a little depressed. At least he didn't have to climb a hill to find Lan Dalong.

Luo Yi lit a cigarette, looked at Li Wenyu and replied: "I'm curious, can't I?"

"...but...can..." Li Wenyu had nothing to say.

Kang Lele saw Luo Yi lighting up a cigarette and reminded him: "Master, we are about to climb uphill. If you smoke now, you will lose strength."

"What do you know? It's just because I'm looking at such a steep slope that I want to smoke." Luo Yi is not afraid of insufficient lung capacity when climbing uphill, but is afraid of losing energy. When she loses energy, she wants to sleep, so she needs to have a cigarette before climbing. Refresh your mind. Holding a cigarette in her mouth, Luo Yi walked at the front, climbing up the hillside step by step. The road made of stone slabs was really a workout. Luo Yi felt that her legs were a little weak, and then she arrived at the Shigonggong Temple. It's a temple, but it's actually just a shelter built on top of a stone, with a stone inside. Li Wenyu looked at the incense ashes and unburned candles in front of the stone, and asked in surprise: "Is this the legendary Eunuch Shi?"

"Yeah." Luo Yi nodded. She knew this must be Eunuch Shi, but she didn't find any spiritual energy.

Kang Lele counted the incense and candles beside it and saw that there were many people worshiping him. He exclaimed: "There are so many people who believe in a stone."

"Is it weird? It's a custom, maybe it has some manifestations." Luo Yi said casually. She said this because the aunt was also very mysterious, saying that Eunuch Shi was very protective of the local people, especially the local people. He is a godfather to Eunuch Shi, so usually children aged four or five will be brought here to worship Eunuch Shi.

Kang Lele reached out and touched the stone, and whispered: "You said if I am like this, will it protect me?" "

"Yes..." Luo Yi deliberately prolonged his voice and laughed. This satisfied Luo Yi's curiosity. Seeing that there was nothing special, he prepared to take Kang Lele and Li Wenyu down the mountain. When Li Wenyu walked, his feet He couldn't help but tremble, and complained: "If I had known better, I would have asked Wangchuan to come with me, and let him experience what it means to tremble when walking."

"He's not available."

After hearing Luo Yi's answer, Li Wenyu asked curiously: "Why did he go?"

"I asked him to monitor Qiu Laosan."

"No wonder, I haven't seen anyone else since I got up." Li Wenyu laughed: "Idol, didn't you say there is nothing suspicious about Qiu Laosan? Why did you let Wangchuan go?"

"Just in case." After Luo Yi answered, she turned to look at Li Wenyu. "Oh, you talk a lot, and you are very good at revenge. I just said something to you yesterday, and you started scratching my sick feet."

Kang Lele walked behind Li Wenyu, knocked Li Wenyu on the head, and lectured: "Did you hear that? Don't talk about my master."

"...I didn't say anything..." Li Wenyu chuckled.

After a few people came down the mountain, they felt a little hungry. There was no one selling breakfast in the whole village. They were so hungry that they had no choice. Luo Yi saw sweet potatoes planted in a field, and the leaves on the ground were green and shiny. So he suggested: "It seems that we are going to eat sweet potatoes today." As he said that, he took out a knife and started digging into the soil. After a while, he dug out a sweet potato with vines attached and covered with mud.

Li Wenyu opened his mouth wide and asked, "How do you eat this?"

"No? I'll teach you." Luo Yi quickly peeled off the skin of the sweet potato with a knife, revealing the clean sweet potato flesh inside. When he took a bite, it was crispy and sweet. "Wow, those sweet potatoes are so sweet."

Kang Lele glanced at Li Wenyu and couldn't help laughing: "You idiot, did you see it?" After saying that, Kang Lele took the knife from Luo Yi's hand and started digging in the soil. After a while, he dug Two came out. Following Luo Yi's example, Kang Lele peeled off the skin and ate it. Although it was a little cold, it tasted pretty good, at least it could fill his stomach.

Li Wenyu, the prodigal son, was completely dumbfounded. Although there was a sweet potato on the ground, he didn't know what to do with it, so he looked at the sweet potato and then at Kang Lele. Kang Lele knew what Li Wenyu was thinking and was proud of it. Answer: "Don't look at me, I won't peel it for you."

"Idol..." After being rejected by Kang Lele, Li Wenyu placed his hope on Luo Yi. Luo Yi had almost eaten and was wiping the mud on her hands with a wet paper towel.

"Don't look at me either

, if a person wants to survive in this world, he must first learn to do it himself, haven’t you heard of it? living comfortably without anybody's help. "

"..." Li Wenyu knew that what Luo Yi said made sense, but he didn't know how to peel it. What should he do? With a sad face, Li Wenyu took out a wet paper towel and wiped the mud off the sweet potatoes desperately. He used paper towels one after another, but it seemed that the mud couldn't be wiped clean. When he saw Kang Lele also eating one, Li Wenyu felt anxious. , had no choice but to use his trump card. "Okay, I've decided to auction off the right to peel sweet potatoes. Whoever helps me peel sweet potatoes, I will give him a hundred yuan."

"One hundred yuan?" Luo Yi snorted, sat on the ground and smoked a cigarette leisurely.

Kang Lele seemed unmoved. Li Wenyu had no choice but to increase the price: "Then two hundred?"

"Two hundred is too little..." Kang Lele fiddled with the knife in his hand and glanced at Li Wenyu.

When a person is hungry, he can do anything. Li Wenyu suddenly raised his heart and said, "One price, five hundred!"

"..." This was what Kang Lele was waiting for. She knew that Luo Yi wouldn't mind making extra money, so she smiled and said, "Deal."

Li Wenyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know why Kang Lele and the others could make it so easily because he had never eaten food that needed to be peeled, especially if it was so dirty. He didn't know how to deal with it. He held a sweet potato in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. After a while, he handed the sweet potato cleanly into Li Wenyu's hands. Li Wenyu sighed at the high price of sweet potatoes while eating. At this time, an old man wearing Jiefang shoes was carrying a hoe. Walking over, the old man saw Li Wenyu holding the sweet potatoes, looked at his land again, and opened his mouth in surprise.

"I'm sorry, grandpa, we are too hungry and have nothing to eat. Just treat these sweet potatoes as what we bought." If Luo Yi hadn't been afraid that grandpa would misunderstand, she wouldn't have taken out the money herself and gave a ten-dollar piece After handing it to the old man, he smiled and apologized: "Grandpa, I'm really sorry, I didn't ask for your permission."

The old man took the money, glanced at it, frowned, returned the money to Luo Yi, and said with a smile: "If you are hungry, you can go to my house to eat. I will treat you to the meal without paying."

"...How can this be so embarrassing." Luo Yi had long heard that the Hakka people were very hospitable, but she didn't expect the old man to be so enthusiastic. However, they still had things to do, so they could only refuse. "Don't bother Grandpa. We still have things to do. You'd better accept the money. It's not easy to grow something." After Luo Yi forced ten dollars to the grandfather, she passed by him. , secretly put a hundred-dollar bill into the grandpa's pocket. This action was so neat that the grandpa didn't notice it at all.

Li Wenyu gnawed and walked away, still saying: "Thank you for the sweet potatoes, grandpa."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." The old man looked at Luo Yi and the three of them leaving with a kind face.

After Luo Yi and others left there, they went around asking people about Wumei Poetry Club, and finally found it at noon. The building of Wumei Poetry Club can be said to be quite old. You can tell by looking at the wooden walls and windows that it is very old. Unfortunately, when it was almost time to eat, the crowd had almost dispersed. There was only an old man smoking a hookah sitting at the door. The old man glanced at the young man in front of him and asked loudly: "Who are you looking for?"

"Lan Dalong."

"Lan Dalong? He went home for dinner." The old man lowered his head and continued to smoke his cigarette.

Luo Yi listened and smiled: "Thank you." After saying that, he turned and left. Kang Lele followed Luo Yi and asked in a low voice: "Master, are we going back like this?"

"How long do you think a sweet potato can last? Do you want to starve me to death?" Luo Yi's stomach was really hungry. If she didn't go back to Lan Guoqiang's house, she felt that she would probably starve to death on the street, clutching her stomach. , slowly walked towards Lan Guoqiang's house...

Li Wenyu was walking at the end. He touched his pants pocket and felt that he had dropped his wallet. When he looked back, he saw his wallet lying on the ground not far away. He also saw Lan Dalong walking out of the poetry club...

"Lan Dalong..."

Lan Dalong raised his head and happened to see Li Wenyu. He ran away for some unknown reason. Li Wenyu was at a loss. After hesitating for a few seconds, he immediately chased after him...
