80s Taoism

"Then how do you know this?" Zhang Jiaohua asked puzzled.

"My younger brother also led the team that day." Luo Changjun told the story. His younger brother was a platoon leader in the Armed Police Squadron. He also participated in the operation to kill the giant python that day.

"So that's the case." Zhang Manyin nodded.

The ice and snow have melted, and the road is even more muddy. Fortunately, this is a four-wheel drive off-road vehicle, otherwise it would really be stuck on the mountain road in Meiziao.

Zhang Jiaohua was so jolted that his heart was about to jump out, "It's better to walk home in this car. I almost broke my head."

"The roads in your village should also be repaired. As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. If you have bad roads like yours, even if there are mountains of gold and silver in your village, you can't get them out." Luo Changjun is skilled. Although the road was bumpy, for Luo Changjun, he still controlled the car steadily.

"It's easier said than done. How much does it cost to repair a mountain road of tens of miles? Meizi'ao is too poor, and it's impossible to get so much money." Zhang Manyin sighed.

"That's true." Naturally, Luo Changjun couldn't continue to say anything, after all, he didn't know Mei Zi'ao's situation very well.

After nearly forty minutes, we finally arrived at the entrance of Meizitang Village.

Although the road has been repaired, the condition is even worse than the road in the village.

Luo Changjun also personally sent the book that Luo Yongming had given Zhang Jiaohua to his home, and rushed back without even drinking his saliva.

Zhang Jiaohua was also embarrassed to take advantage of Luo Changjun, so he went back and took a piece of cured wild pork, and then took out a few talismans and handed them to Luo Changjun, "Uncle Rob, thank you for sending us home. My family picked up a wild boar on the mountain last year and smoked some bacon. Take it back and taste it. By the way, here are a few Anzhai talismans. Take it back and put it at home. It can ward off evil spirits."

"Don't, don't. If I take these things from you, I won't be scolded to death by the old man when I go back." Luo Changjun quickly refused.

"Director Luo, this bacon is the intention of Jiaohua, you must accept it. These Anzhai Talismans are all invited by Jiaohua himself. Putting them at home can keep you safe. They are still very famous in our village." Zhang Manyin went to find a snakeskin bag and put the bacon in the snakeskin bag. Put it in the car savagely.

Luo Changjun just accepted it, "Okay, then I thank Uncle Zhang, thank you for your enlightenment. Next time you go to town, you must visit the old man. The old man in my family likes to have someone to talk to him the most. My wife and I both have jobs, so there is usually no time to go there. He also refuses to live with us."

"Yes, as long as we go to the street, we will definitely go back to visit Brother Luo." Zhang Manyin also has a good impression of Luo Yongming.

After sending Luo Changjun away, Zhang Manyin patted Zhang Jiaohua on the head, "You beggar, now that your name has changed, you can go to school with peace of mind, learn more culture, and go to university when you grow up."

Zhang Manyin still called Zhang Jiaohua by his nickname. It's easy to say. In fact, there is still a clear difference between begging and teaching in Meizi'ao's accent.

"I want it. Grandpa, go back quickly." Zhang Jiaohua laughed.

"Okay, after grandpa has finished doing things for you, you should drive grandpa away, and don't let grandpa do things for you in the future." Zhang Manyin pretended to be very angry.

"Grandpa, we still have a bucket of rice wine at home. I'm afraid it will lose the smell if I put it here. Why don't you drink it." Zhang Jiaohua brought out the remaining jar of rice wine in the first month.

"I don't care for your rice wine. I'm just afraid that your rice wine will be wasted." Zhang Manyin smiled and took the rice wine back. In fact, he is not greedy for this little rice wine. Put this rice wine in Zhang Jiaohua's house, if you don't drink it for a long time, the smell of the wine will really go away. When Zhang Youping and the others come back during the Chinese New Year, the jar of wine will probably be as light as water. He drank the jar of wine now, and he will return it when Zhang Youping and the others come back. It's just that it's hard to say whether he can roast such good wine as Zhang Jiaohua's family.

"Beautiful, come to our place to have dinner tonight." Zhang Manyin went outside and called back again.

"No. I'll just get something to eat at night." Zhang Jiaohua still has things to do. Under Zhang Jiaohua's strong request, several of the chickens and ducks in the family were kept. Zhang Jiaohua not only has to take care of his own mouth every day, but also takes care of these chickens and ducks. The three hares have also turned into big hares. Zhang Jiaohua tamed the three hares the same way as a coyote, and it turned out to be very effective. Now open the cage every day during the day, and the three hares go out to look for food by themselves. In the evening, come back by yourself. There is no need for Zhang Jiaohua to spend too much time managing them.

The Diamond Mountain Leopard is staying at home today, but it will not go hungry. When it was time to eat, it would go to Ma Donghua's side to fight the autumn wind, and immediately returned to Zhang Jiaohua's house when it was full. Ma Donghua set up a label of "an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf". Poultry and livestock are really loyal, as long as they recognize the owner, even if they go to other people's houses to steal food every day, they will rarely abandon the owner's house.

Luo Changjun drove back to Gezhuping Town, and made a special trip to the old house. Send the cured wild pork that Zhang Jiaohua gave to Luo Yongming. Contrary to Luo Changjun's expectation, Luo Yongming didn't say anything about his eldest son's behavior of charging Zhang Jiaohua for a piece of cured wild pork.

"Oh, this wild pork is not simple!" Luo Yongming's eyes widened when he saw the wild pork.

"Isn't it just a piece of wild pork? Dad, if you want to eat it, I'll go to the village and buy some for you." Luo Changjun thought Luo Yongming liked to eat wild pork.

"You don't understand. You can't buy this wild boar. This wild boar weighs at least four to five hundred catties. Ordinary hunters can't catch such a wild boar, and they don't dare to hunt it. If they face each other head-on, it might kill them. I don't know how the Jiaohua family got it." Luo Yongming roughly estimated the weight of the wild boar just by looking at it. It can be seen that Luo Yongming still has some research on wild boars.

"How did you find out?" Luo Changjun was a little puzzled.

"Your father and I went to the countryside to join the team. The fellow villagers of the brigade often went to the mountains to put wild boar covers, but the covers they put can't hold such a big wild boar. Looking at the size of the wild boar is actually the same as watching a house pig laughing. The main thing is to look at the thickness of the fat and the size of the skeleton. The size of the skeleton can tell the size of the pig, and the thickness of the fat can tell whether the pig's fat is good or not." Luo Yongming explained the trick. come out.

Luo Changjun understood it as soon as he heard it. In fact, this is also a necessary skill for them to be a police officer. It's just that he didn't think of using it to identify a wild boar.

"By the way, he also gave me a few Anzhai charms. Let me deal with them." Luo Changjun took out a few Anzhai charms folded from yellow paper from his handbag.

Luo Yongming took the Anzhai Talisman into his hand very solemnly, "Don't underestimate these Anzhai Talismans. I think this enlightenment probably knows a little about the real Meishan magic. Otherwise, I can't just catch a sheep for you. I just put one of the Anzhai Talismans here, and you take the rest and put them in a more eye-catching place at home."

"Okay." Although Luo Changjun felt that doing this was a bit feudal and superstitious, he didn't want to upset the old man. Put the Anzhai Talisman into the bag.

Luo Yongming put the Anzhai Talisman on the shrine, and specially burned incense and paper, paying great attention to it. It made Luo Changjun a little strange. After all, the old man was also a national cadre before, and he never engaged in such tricks when he was in office. Unexpectedly, after retiring, he became a bit feudal.
