Chapter 12 Start preparing

The old man looked at the people in the yard.Said: "I need twenty big roosters. The longer the roosters live, the better. The bigger the roosters, the better. The bigger the combs, the better. After buying them, they will be delivered to my house early tomorrow morning."

"It's easy to handle. I'll ask my eldest daughter-in-law to buy it."

"I still need six or seven bags of caustic soda, is there somewhere to get it?"

"It's easy to handle. My second child works in a paper mill in the city. They need to use caustic soda when making paper. There is a lot of it. I asked him to get some bags."

"I still need four or five strong male laborers. This is not easy to handle. You'd better not find outsiders, but find a few trusted family members. Although there will be no danger, but if this matter gets out, it may be Cause some trouble, so it's best not to ask outsiders."

"It's not difficult. Besides the boss, I have four sons, and I have a total of five people. They are all from peasant families. They have worked hard since they were young. They all have the strength of arms. If you want us to do anything, just tell us."

The old Taoist was delighted when he heard it. In his opinion, the most difficult thing to do was solved so easily.The rest is easy to handle.

The old man asked Pharaoh to prepare two shovels, two forks, two crowbars, an entire bucket, several pairs of shoulder poles, a small cart, a few slender wooden sticks, and four thicker wooden sticks. For the pile, one end should be cut into a wedge, and then a thin iron box with ten cubic meters of water can be borrowed from the construction company.

Then get each person a pair of goggles, masks and gloves, and garlic strings made of whole heads of garlic, one for each person.These are also easy to handle. A relative of Wang Jili's family works in a cement factory and has plenty of goggles, masks, and gloves.Not to mention garlic, how little garlic is there in farmers?
The old Taoist came again with Wang Jili's birthday horoscope, and used the awl that pierced Chen Ziyang to get blood that day to release a lot of blood from Wang Jili's finger, put the blood into a canned bottle and put it away.

The old Taoist said to the old Wangtou again: "I still need four women. Now I have your wife, your eldest daughter-in-law, and your youngest daughter (Chen Ziyang's second aunt). There is still one missing. Let your youngest daughter ask Ask Widow Ma to see if she is willing to help. After all, her man's death is also related to this. If she doesn't agree, you can find another daughter-in-law, or the same sentence, don't look for outsiders.

You can just prepare these things. I will do the rest. Hurry up and prepare first today. If there is anything missing, you can make up for it tomorrow. You will be here waiting for me tomorrow morning. After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but was grabbed by Yang Jili's father. The old man stuffed 200 yuan into the hand of the old man.

"Master Daoist, you need money to buy things. I don't know if these are enough? You take them first. If they are not enough, I will make up for you later." Money, the old Taoist picked up the money, led Chen Ziyang to turn around and walked back.

Before leaving, the old Taoist also asked Wang Jili's father to tell Chen Ziyang's second aunt not to tell Chen Ziyang's mother about this, or the child might not be able to go the day after tomorrow, and he would have to let him go. This kid is doing his best.

As soon as Chen Ziyang heard that the coke was broken, he was finally going to fight the demons. This made Chen Ziyang so beautiful that he forgot how miserable he was when he vomited and was haunted by ghosts after eating.

Wang Jili's father agreed, regardless of what role such a young child can play and whether there is any danger.This is all for his own son, and he can't care about other people's sons now.

The old Taoist sent Chen Ziyang home first, and told him that he would not be needed today, and asked him to wait at his home early tomorrow morning.Then the old man went to the city by car. After all, the town was too small, and many things he needed were not sold, so he had to go to the city to buy them.

Early the next morning, when Lao Dao came back from the city, Chen Ziyang was already waiting at the door of Lao Dao's house. Lao Dao bought a bunch of things in large and small bags. Things, such as cinnabar, yellow paper, etc. Among the things the old man bought, the strangest thing was a whole big pig's head and dozens of catties of fat pork. This made Chen Ziyang greedy, thinking that the old man wanted to stew the pig's head What about meat?

When Chen Ziyang hadn’t seen all the things the old man bought, Chen Ziyang’s second uncle and second aunt rode upside down on donkeys to pull several large chicken coops, and there were more than 20 big roosters in the chicken coops. Manly and high-spirited, the chicken tails and combs are all beautiful.

Chen Ziyang smacked his lips and thought, all the good-looking big roosters in the town are probably here. If these roosters are all dead, the chicks that will be hatched in this town will be ugly and ugly up.

After Chen Ziyang asked, he found out that the small restaurant of the two of them was also temporarily closed for the past two days, and we will talk about it after finishing business. More people will have more strength.

The old man told them to put all the chickens in the coop.The one-story house that Lao Dao rented had a chicken pen, but the chicken pen had been empty since Lao Dao rented the house. More than 20 big roosters crowded the small chicken coop to the brim.The old man took out half a bag of glutinous rice from the house and poured it all into the chicken coop.

A group of roosters flapped their wings and rushed to eat.This made several other people frown in distress, especially Chen Ziyang's second aunt screamed in distress.The old man chuckled and told them that he was going to wash the chicken intestines, and the rice might not be enough.The mission of these chickens today is to eat.

Chen Ziyang just wanted to go to the toilet, but was stopped by the old Taoist and asked him to urinate in a canned bottle, saying that he wanted to use some boy urine.This frightened Chen Ziyang, and hurriedly asked the old man: "You don't want to wash my intestines, tell me to drink water all the time today, my task today is not to pee..."

The old Taoist said disdainfully: "I don't know how to do it. Don't say that you are my apprentice when you go out. This boy's urine is only useful for the first time in the morning. The rest, no matter how much he urinates, is just water."

After filling the sink in the chicken coop with water, Lao Dao, Chen Ziyang and Chen Ziyang's second aunt rode upside down on a donkey, and were pushed by Chen Ziyang's second uncle to Wang Jili's house.

Lao Dao looked at the things that Lao Wang's house had prepared, and they were very good, except that the caustic soda was on the way and hadn't arrived yet, everything else was complete, and after the Lao Dao's inspection, they were all relatively qualified.Old Wangtou has five sons, except for Wang Jili who is Chongxie, three of the remaining four have come, and the one who didn't come is transporting caustic soda on the road.

The old Taoist asked Wang Jili's father to stay and take care of Wang Jili, while all the others rushed to the Blood Spirit Coffin with axes, four wooden stakes cut into wedges at each end, and an empty thin iron box.

This kind of big thin tin box is specially used for construction sites. At that time, the facilities in the town were not good, and the water was not very convenient. If you want to build a house or a building, you can get him three or two of these tin boxes to fill the water and use it to mix the cement. The large box can hold about ten cubic meters of water.The box looked huge, but it was not heavy at all. It was welded with five thin iron sheets, and it was easy for Lao Wangtou's two sons to carry it around.

A group of people came to the open space where the Blood Spirit Coffin was located in a short while. The old Taoist measured the wind direction with cloth strips, found a direction away from the upwind of the Blood Spirit Coffin, and asked them to put down the tin box at the edge of the open space. Using the method of measuring north and south with a watch last time, I found the four directions of the blood spirit coffin's location.

At the end of the open space in these four directions, the four wooden stakes were nailed down, and several nails were driven on the wooden stakes.When nailing the wooden stakes, they always walked around the periphery of the open space, not daring to approach the Blood Spirit Coffin at all.

The old Taoist said to everyone: "You are all optimistic about the positions of these four wooden stakes, and keep them firmly in your heart, so that you can find them with your eyes closed. Success or failure depends on them."

After everything was arranged, the old Taoist said to them: "You don't need to do anything else today, just carry the water, fill up the tank, leave the buckets here after filling up, and then you can have a good rest. Come to your house to find you. Remember, neither men nor women can drink alcohol or have sex today. Also, everyone must wear red underpants and red socks tomorrow. After the caustic soda is shipped, store it properly. Don’t touch the water. The canvas covered and strapped to the cart."

After the old Taoist finished speaking, he led Chen Ziyang home.
