Chapter 452
n, I am from Wangjia Town, Fuping County!” Henry Zhang replied with a smile.
“Wangjia Town? Is this young man really from Wangjia Town?” The old man immediately looked surprised and stood up involuntarily.
“Old man, what are you…” Henry Zhang was stunned.
“Oh, oh, it’s okay, I made little brother laugh!” The old man calmed down, sat down again, and then said to Zhao Liu next to him: “Xiao Liu, go and tell your mother again, and add a few more Add a few more spoons of oil to the dish!”
“Okay, Grandpa!” Zhao Liu, who had been quietly watching his grandfather chatting with Henry Zhang, agreed and ran out.
“Old man, I can’t do it, I can’t do it…” Henry Zhang was a little confused for a moment, and he didn’t understand why the other party became more enthusiastic when he heard that he was from Wangjia Town.

Chapter 405: The crane is born, the heavenly master talks about the statue of the god
“Ang…ang…”
A sound of thunder suddenly came from the void.
“Rumble…Rumble…”
“Why did it thunder suddenly?” The old man was talking when he suddenly raised his head.
Hearing the thunder, Henry Zhang was slightly startled, looked up at the sky, opened his eyes, and immediately saw through the roof that the black and yellow energy was condensing and rolling in the void.
“Ang…ang…”
A strange but familiar bird song faintly came into his ears. Henry Zhang was startled again, his eyes moved, and he looked towards the place where the sound came from, and then he saw nine white… red-crowned cranes in the sky. Hovering and flying.
“Dan… red-crowned crane?!”
“Brother Henry Zhang? What red-crowned crane?” The old man next to him was also stunned when he heard this and asked curiously.
“Oh…, it’s okay, it’s okay, old man, it’s okay, I just heard a few bird calls, a bit like the sound of a red-crowned crane!” Henry Zhang smiled and shook his head.
“What kind of crane is a red-crowned crane? The old man has lived for fifty years and has only seen white cranes and gray cranes. He has indeed never heard of a red-crowned crane.” The old man also became curious.
“Oh…” Henry Zhang paused, then continued: “Compared with other cranes, the red-crowned crane is longer and covered with white feathers, but its neck and tail are black, and the top of its head is red, so it is called red-crowned crane; legend has it that The red-crowned crane is an immortal bird, an auspicious bird!…”
“Immortal bird? What is an immortal? An auspicious bird!” The interest on the old man’s face became more intense, and he also secretly remembered the name of the red-crowned crane in his heart.
“Oh…” Henry Zhang was speechless for a moment, and it was really difficult to continue explaining, otherwise the more he explained, the more he would have to explain.
“Grandpa, hee hee… the dishes are here. Look, my mother has prepared a lot of delicious dishes today! There are more dishes than the Chinese New Year dishes, so delicious!” When Henry Zhang was in trouble, Zhao Si was holding two bowls of vegetables
. Ran in.
The old man stared at him and said: “Xiaosi, slow down, you are nine years old, and you are still frizzy!” After the
old man spoke like this, he forgot to continue asking Henry Zhang what an immortal is.

Henry Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, Zhao Si and Zhao Liu made two trips, and soon six large coarse porcelain bowls were placed on the table. There were six dishes in the big bowls, four vegetarian dishes and two meat dishes.
The vegetarian dishes are basically boiled vegetables, with some oil stars vaguely visible; the meat dishes are a bowl of pork and a bowl of fish.
“Old man, this is so rich!” Henry Zhang opened his mouth and said hesitantly.
The old man’s family is just an ordinary farmhouse in the village. They basically eat brown rice on weekdays. Not to mention eating meat, they don’t even eat stir-fried vegetables very often. But today, they treated themselves to six stir-fried vegetables. , which also included two meat dishes, which made Henry Zhang slightly uneasy.
“Not rich, not rich, young man, the old man still feels a bit rude?” The old man saw the unnatural look on Henry Zhang’s face and said with a smile.
“Old man, what do you say?” Henry Zhang was startled and asked curiously.
“Brother, you should have seen the divine pictures on every door in the village just now, right?” the old man said, pointing to the door.
Henry Zhang was stunned and said: “The old man is talking about that door god statue?”
“The door god statue? Yes, yes, it is the door god statue! Ever since every household in our village posted that door god statue, I feel very comfortable sleeping at night, and it has never happened again. It’s a weird and harmful thing, don’t you think it’s strange?” The old man became excited when he said this, with a smile on his face, the kind of joy that comes from the heart.
“Dad! Please stop talking and eat quickly. Let’s chat while eating!” The thirty-year-old man came in with several large bowls and placed them in front of the old man and Henry Zhang respectively. The bowls were full of Brown rice.
“Yes, yes, eat, eat! By the way, boss, give out some dishes for your wife and Xiaosi and Xiaoliu to eat in the back room!” The old man said, looking at the man who had already sat down.
The man smiled and said: “Dad, the dishes are all set aside. Let’s just eat ours! I also brought a pound of wine. Let’s drink two glasses!” As the man said this, he took out
a black-glazed wine flask from behind and returned it. There are three wine bowls with the same black glaze.
The man filled three wine bowls with turbid yellow wine, and a scent of wine wafted from them.
The old man sniffed and said with a smile: “Lao Ba’s wine-making skills are getting better and better!”
The man smiled and shook his head and said: “Dad, Uncle Ba said this is not his craftsmanship, it’s from outside our village. The water quality of that stream is better! Ever since that statue was posted, everything in our village seems to be getting better and better. It’s amazing!” “Yes, yes, the
statue of the door god, the statue of the door god, ever since the statue was posted on the door After the statue, our life will get better and better!” The old man smiled and nodded repeatedly.
“Brother, the second master invited this statue from Daqing Town. It is said that after it is put up, it can be managed for one year. You can just ask for another statue next year and put it up! It is so effective!” The man continued.
“Well, the door god has the ability to guard the house and subjugate demons. If you attach the statue of the door god to it, no weird evil spirits can invade the house anymore!” Henry Zhang explained with a smile.
“Yes, yes, little brother, you are absolutely right. Anyway, since our village has put up statues of gods, we feel very at ease, which is much better than the statues of ancestral spirits. But, little brother, what exactly is this door god? What is it? How can it be so effective!” the man asked curiously.
Henry Zhang thought for a while and didn’t know whether to explain the gods in detail. He pondered for a while and said: “Actually, the door god is also a kind of ancestral spirit, just more powerful!” The villagers in Wangjia Town knew more about the gods, and Fuping
City People in other towns and villages have very limited understanding of gods.
“By the way, brother Henry Zhang, you are from Wangjia Town. I heard from the second master that this statue comes from Wangjia Town. Is that true?” The man continued to ask curiously.
Henry Zhang nodded and said: “Yes, the door god statue is indeed from Wangjia Town; and not only the door god statue, but also the land god statue, the kitchen god statue, the well god statue and many other statues are from Wangjia Town!” “The land
