Chapter 47:Clay Bodhisattva Path

I looked at my grandfather’s worried eyes, and he looked at the knife.

"What's the matter, the disaster is coming again."My grandfather’s voice was a little choked.

“Grandpa, what happened?”At this time, my brother and sister-in-law also went out and found that Grandpa was talking to the kitchen knife.

"The man who sells the kitchen knife is no ordinary man."My grandfather turned to look at us and said, "If you pay everyone on credit according to the way he does, not only will you not make money for many years, but you will lose the bottom of the sky."

"Yes, how much money did he have a few years ago, how much money does he still charge, this... four years ago, the rice one pound a pound or five, now it's more than two, why didn't he rise?"I said, "Even if it's a kitchen knife for fifteen dollars, or even twenty, the person who takes his knife on his back will give it."

"That's the problem."My grandfather took a deep breath and said, "His purpose is not for money, but to warn those who are about to suffer, just like four years ago, when he said that when there was no water in the mountains, he came to collect money again, when everyone did not notice that he had words, now he said, when we can't eat water, he will collect money again!" 」

“This?”All three of us were stunned.

“Then why didn’t he tell us directly, but in this way?”My brother asked.

“If you reveal the plane, you must not disclose your name.”My grandfather said, “Especially such people, who have great predictive power, but are afraid of leaking the sky and being punished by heaven, so in this way, if they can understand people, they may find a way to prepare before they come, and even may avoid the disaster.”

My brother and I looked at each other, really a big world, nothing surprising, I did not expect that in this era, there are such a high person.

“The heavens and the earth are together, and that is the way, and beyond the right way, there are eight hundred perimeter-doors, and three thousand on the left, and these sects have their own sects.”My grandfather took a deep breath and said, "This man should be a mud bodhisattva."

“The Mud Bodhisattva?”I said, "The old saying, the mud bodhisattva crossed the river, it is difficult to protect itself!"Is that it?”

“Yes.”My grandfather nodded and said, "The people of the Mud Bodhisattva are good at predicting, and they are extremely accurate, only because the sky machine can't be leaked, so once there are too many celestial machines, after all, they are punished by heaven, and there is this proverb, so there is such a credit knife."

"Grandpa, just now he said that when we can't eat water, he will come back to collect the accounts, then if the whole village people do not credit his kitchen knife, this robbery will not come?"As soon as I spoke, Lao Tzu felt so stupid that it was like listening to my ears, so that my brother looked at me with the eyes of an idiot.

My grandfather did not speak, but said: "Before, I also encountered once, said that it is waiting for the rice to rise to ten dollars a pound to collect, the rice was only eight cents a pound, so many people are on credit, I now think about it is afraid, suddenly turned over the price of 20 times, one may be the economy is better, the price is rising, it may be inflation, or it may be famine or war, but no matter what, the twelve times is not a good thing for the people."

“Then someone next to him said, ‘From now on, there will be a lot of food in your hands, and you will not be afraid to have food in your hands.”My grandfather glanced at us and said with some complicated eyes: "Someone said a broken word, he said, by then, it's not yours!"

At this point, the three of us are blind, if it is really a natural and man-made disaster, when there is no time to eat, the good people will also become thugs, burning and robbing, not for anything else, just to be able to fill the stomach, in order to survive.

I looked at my grandfather and I said, “What should we do?”

At this time, she said: "Before his prediction is that there is no water in the mountains, now it really happened, now his prophecy is that we can't eat water, that should be a problem of drinking water, but at this moment we drink tap water, there is water next to the cloud, according to his meaning, can not eat water, may be dry water, drought no water to eat, may be water unclean, may be water unclean, eat will die."

"Yes, that's what I mean."My grandfather looked at my sister-in-law with approval and smiled and said, "The girl is very smart, we must gather everyone now, spread out this, and let everyone be ready."

Then early in the morning, in the farm department, the villagers were gathered.

After the call, my grandfather did not speak, but let the village chief's father Wu friendship speak, because Wu Friendship is the current village chief's father, before also as the village chief, so the speech is more convincing, more prestige.

Although my grandfather had prestige before, he did not return for several years, and because the matter of the butcher was still not over, he did not want to speak.

The village chief's father saw that the people were almost in line, and he said, "The old man who sold the kitchen knife just now must have seen it all?"

"Well, yes, four years ago we took his kitchen knife on my own, and we just paid it back."Some people in the crowd said, "Old village chief, are you meeting to say that you want to pay people back money?"Don't worry, all the money owed to him is still up, and people don't want it, four years ago it was ten dollars, and it is still ten dollars, and you have never seen such a sincere person."

"Yes, yes, our family is still up."

"My family is also up, this morning, called him into the door to drink tea, people are very polite, did not enter the door."

...

The crowd began to talk, and you said a look at me, even noisy.

Wu Friendship quickly stood up, frowned slightly, pressed his hand toward everyone, and signaled everyone not to speak.

After the people were quiet, Wu Friendship looked at my grandfather, and then said, "Today we gathered everyone, not because of the return of money, but because of another thing, everyone remembers no, when did the last time we sell a kitchen knife, said when to collect the money?"

At this time, there are many people frown, but there are also many people who think in detail, but Wu De raised his hand and stood up first, he said: "Old village chief, don't ask others about this matter, you directly ask me on the line, because I remember very well, four years ago, I am lonely, four years later, I am also a lonely person, I really need a kitchen knife, but there is no money in my pocket, I will try to ask the old man, I said others are on credit.He didn't even think about it, so he handed me a hand."

Wu De turned his head in the crowd to look for it, found Wu turned into a finger, pointed to the finger: "Then Wu turned into this bastard and said to the old man, I am a bachelor in the village, all day long business, like me, how dare he give me a credit knife?" 」

"I was gambling with him, I asked the old man, I said when he came to collect the money, I also have to prepare the money, I will be ready to collect, he will collect money, he smiles slightly, when the mountain does not come to the water, he will come again to collect money."

Then in the end, everyone seemed to be aware of something, Wu De's last voice was also small, and he said with some surprise: "Now it is the mountain that there is no water, the village can't live, we moved here, he came to collect money!"

Everyone calmed down, one by one, you look at me, I look at you, Wu De said to Wu Friendship: "Old village chief, you say directly, what are you looking for us, this old man has nothing to do with the water in the mountains, or do you know why not come to the water?" 」

Wu De asked, everyone looked at Wu Friendship, Wu Friendship said: "Wu De is a question is right, but the old man and the mountain do not come to the water has nothing to do, as for whether he knows the reason, I do not know, but this morning Wu Laoda asked him, can not be credit knife, he said, Wu Laodao asked when to collect money, he said when we can not eat water to collect money!"

“You can’t eat water...” Everyone realized something, Wu De said, “Then we have moved out of Wu Village now, and when we get to the farm, can’t we eat water?”

“What do you say?”Wu Friendship asked Wu De directly, and directly asked Wu De to be speechless.
