In the 1970s and 1980s, a group of people suddenly appeared among the people. They traveled all over the country, carrying various knives and whetstones on their backs, and went to villages and towns to shout.

What they have in their hands is not only kitchen knives, but also scissors, hatchets, sickles... Anyway, they carry everything related to knives.

The strange thing is that they only sell their knives on credit, and every time they leave a knife, they will inevitably leave some prophecies.

They made an agreement with the buyer that if the prophecy does not come true, the knife will be given to the buyer; but once the prophecy comes true, they will come to collect the money, or the benefits originally agreed upon.

This prophecy can be divided into many types. Sometimes it is a natural disaster, sometimes it is a man-made disaster, but sometimes it is a prophecy of getting rich or having children.

This type of person is known among the people as a knife loaner!

It’s easy to understand what people who borrow knives on credit mean. The knives they carry are only for credit but not for sale, and the date of credit is also uncertain. When they leave, they will leave behind a prophecy, which is a prophecy spoken by the ancients.

This profession first appeared in the Song Dynasty. They claimed to be the descendants of Guiguzi, and the people initially called them Bu Mai.

Generally speaking, knife dealers belong to folk sects. On the surface, they sell knives, but in fact they are a group of fortune tellers and karma dealers.

If the calculation is wrong, we will never meet again;

If the calculation is correct, we will receive the benefits as agreed.

Use your sword to establish your trust, and your trust to walk the road. This is the rule for people who use swords on credit to travel around the world.

When Yan Shou saw the word "credit" on the kitchen knife, he understood the identity of the visitor.

But Long Feicheng didn’t understand the meaning of the knife loaner, and kept chasing Yan Shouyi asking questions. Yan Shouyi was afraid that he would never finish it, so he explained to him.

After hearing this, Long Feicheng remembered that he had seen someone who borrowed knives on credit when he was a child.

Upon hearing this, Yan Shouyi and Ye Chengfu asked Long Feicheng to tell them the story of the man who borrowed knives from him when he was a child.

It turns out that when Long Feicheng was a child, he lived in an old alley in Rongcheng. At that time, there could be hundreds of people living in an alley. If something happened to every household, the whole alley would know immediately.

At that time, there was a couple in the same alley. The man was a doctor who ran a clinic, and the woman was a worker in a sewing factory. They had been married for eight years, but they had no children.

Both parties have been examined and both are in very good health, but no matter what they do, the child will never live or die.

One day, a knife loaner suddenly came and left a pair of scissors. He said that the couple was destined to have a calamity. Before this calamity passed, the Lord of Hell did not dare to let the child be reincarnated into their family. thisThe person who borrowed the knife said that the woman should stay at home for the next seven days, while the man should not go home for seven days and must stay outside, otherwise he will be infected with evil spirits and cause disaster.

As long as the couple is apart and does not see each other for these seven days, they can survive this fateful disaster and naturally have a child.

The person who borrowed the knife left after saying this, and promised to fulfill his promise after seven days.

Both the couple wanted to have a child, and they were also afraid of the disaster that the creditor said would come, so the man packed his luggage that night and ran back to his hometown to live.

The first few days were fine and everything was fine, but when the man got home, he always felt uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen.

At that time, the common people were no longer very superstitious. In addition, people in the same village always looked at the man with strange eyes, which made the man even more unbearable.

So on the night of the sixth day, he secretly returned to the city and quietly went to the alley. At least he was satisfied with being able to see his wife from a distance.

Hearing this, Yan Shouyi sighed: "Why is there always a male protagonist who seeks death in such stories?"

Ye Chengfu also said: "This man doesn't follow the rules and is asking for trouble!"

Long Feicheng also agreed very much: "Yes, this man is asking for trouble! That night, he quietly returned In the alley, he came to the window of his house, climbed up and took a look, and his face turned green with fright. Do you know what he saw?"

The atmosphere has been aroused, even Yan Shouyi They were all curious: "What did he see?"

Long Feicheng slammed the table, startling the two of them:

"The man saw it, he My wife is fooling around with the knife dealer! In fact, that person is not a real knife dealer at all, but his wife’s old friend, who deliberately pretends to be the knife dealer and keeps the man away so that they can do things more easily! The reason why the male villagers looked at him strangely was because they heard some rumors but were too embarrassed to tell him!"

Yan Shouyi: "..."

Ye Chengfu: "..."

I thought this was a legendary story about a knife owner, but I didn't expect it to be a story about family ethics.

As expected of you, Long Feicheng!

Yan Shou glared at Long Feicheng: "From now on, if you don't have farts in your stomach, don't stick your fucking butt out, it's a waste of my time!"

Ye Chengfu covered himself He said in his heart: "Don't be surprised next time when you tell a story. I'm old and I can't stand being scared..."

Long Feicheng chuckled, then sighed:

"Later, in a rage, the man stabbed the couple to death with the scissors given by the credit card holder. This incident was quite a big deal at that time, and our neighbor in the alley They were all so frightened that they moved away, and then there were rumors that the new people who moved in could always see lights on in that room in the middle of the night, and some people heard the screams of men and women."

Now that I think about it, it might be true that those people were talking about ghosts.

Long Feicheng sat back on the chair, leaned forward, and said:

"Brother Yan, why did you say that this knife loaner is fine, why did he come to us?"< br />
Yan Shouyi shook his head: "I don't know either, but the people who borrow swords are the most reasonable group among folk sects, and they will not provoke and bully others for no reason. In other words, this knife borrowing people When people come to us, they must have caused a cause and effect with us. They will not give up until the cause and effect is over."

Ye Chengfu also understood why Luo Ning asked them to come after seeing the kitchen knife. Yan Shouyi is gone.

To untie the bell, the person who tied it must be tied. None of them can deal with this person who borrowed the knife. Only Yan Shouyi returns in person can the matter be solved.

"Let's eat!"

At this time, Lin Zitong and Jiang Ting came to the yard with fragrant meals. Everyone couldn't help but twitch their index fingers when they smelled the aroma. .

“What did you talk about?” Lin Zitong asked after sitting down.

Yan Shouyi told Lin Zitong about the knife loaner, and Lin Zitong also realized the seriousness of the matter.

So everyone made a summary on the spot and decided to stay at home for the last night tonight, pack up their things early tomorrow morning, and set off back to Rongcheng.

They stayed in Chenjiacun for a month at a stretch, and they were even a little unfamiliar with the people and things in Rongcheng.

But they also understand that Chenjiacun is not their final destination, at least not now. No matter how happy they are in Chenjiacun, they will always return to Rongcheng and face those troubles again. Son.
