Blessings are usually effective, just like people’s greetings on various festivals, as long as you wish others peace and happiness from the bottom of your heart, generally positive power will follow.

This kind of power is a kind of blessing. It is contaminated to the blessed person through a person's mouth, and it also dominates part of the person's future destiny.Its opposite is a curse, where malicious and unfavorable words are spoken from a person's mouth, and the ensuing disaster will also entangle the cursed person.The old saying that misfortune comes from the mouth has this meaning, so this is also the reason why the elders often teach the younger generations not to speak nonsense.

However, because the abilities of ordinary human beings are limited, the effects of blessings and misfortunes generally displayed will not be too obvious, let alone some people who are rich in blessings or full of malice, but when these blessings are given by the calendar gods who are gods If you say it yourself, the effect will definitely be different.

Take today's Spring Festival as an example, because he is one of the 22 traditional festivals, so it is undeniable that his divine power is very prominent among most of the calendar gods, although this outstanding Xiao Nanzhu is temporarily It wasn't obvious yet, but when the child sincerely sent those two words to Situ Zhang's mother, the blessing from the gods instantly enveloped the old man with a bad complexion, making her gray and tired His face brightened up all of a sudden.

Situ Zhang, who had been watching from the side, did not notice any changes in his mother from the beginning to the end. On the contrary, when his mother straightened her back, she somehow felt that her arms and legs, which were still sore, became more flexible. I definitely won't think about other things, I just think that the medicine I took in the morning has taken effect, and I feel relieved a lot. Thinking of this, the kind old lady couldn't help but smiled and touched the head of the Spring Festival,

"Hey, my baby's mouth is so sweet, grandma's old arms and legs don't hurt immediately after hearing this, what do you want to eat at noon, grandma will make it... Hey, Zhang Zhang's dad, come out quickly, he's still there What are you doing inside? Anan is here..."

Situ Zhang's father also slowly came out from the back room after the words were finished. He is 75 years old this year, and he is in good spirits. After seeing Xiao Nanzhu sitting in the main room, this serious old man also showed his face immediately. A little softened expression.

"Ah Nan, here we come. Let's eat here at noon. I heard that you came back years ago. Why didn't you come and sit?"

The old man walked up to them and sat down, the old lady went to the kitchen to make lunch for everyone, and Situ Zhang was also called in to help.Xiao Nanzhu originally wanted to keep the Spring Festival by his side to watch, but the dead boy threw his face at him and ran away with the old lady without hesitation, while the helpless Xiao Nanzhu was next to Situ Zhang's father After sitting down, the old man looked at Xiao Nanzhu carefully, nodded and smiled in relief for a long time.

"I'm in good spirits, it's different from when I was a child, it's pretty good."

Xiao Nanzhu couldn't help laughing at these words, and he knew in his heart that the image of the little bastard he used to be was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which made the old man very afraid that he would take Situ Zhang out to fight life before they became adults. It's all right, but because this family has been close to Xiao Nanzhu's family since they were young, Xiao Nanzhu has nothing to hide in front of them. The old man will answer whatever he asks, and he is extremely docile.Before, he kept Situ Zhang from telling him that he was a Huangli teacher. Now that the old man asked about his job, he thought about it and answered honestly,

"Well, I have also inherited the ancestral business. What the old lady did before her death, I am doing that now."

As soon as Xiao Nanzhu said this, he obviously felt that the old man Situ in front of him was stunned for a moment, Xiao Nanzhu didn't speak, and respectfully raised his hand to pour a cup of tea for the old man, the old man frowned, as if he was thinking about something Things, and after a while, Mr. Situ looked at Xiao Nanzhu as if he came back to his senses, and then slowly said,

"It's good to be able to inherit the ancestral business. If you don't do this, it might be lost. Your grandma used to be enthusiastic and helped us a lot. Anan, if you want to do this, let Zhang Zhang find it for you. People, the world is different now, everyone doesn’t believe this, alas, no one believes in our qigong anymore, they all treat us as liars, so that Zhang Zhang can only go to massage for blind people, and has to deal with it all day long The police station of the Industry and Commerce Bureau inspected it, as if we were doing something against discipline..."

The old man's murmured complaints made Xiao Nanzhu laugh. He was also grateful from the bottom of his heart for the family's tolerant attitude towards him, so after he came out of their house after lunch at noon, Xiao Nanzhu thought about it and left A back door let the Spring Festival come out to drive away the evil spirits in their house.

The small courtyard at the deepest part of the alley does not see the sun all the year round, because it is dark and humid, and it looks very wrong. When Xiao Nanzhu just had dinner, he heard from Situ Zhang that his parents’ rheumatoid arthritis has become more and more serious in recent years. , I think it was also caused by the sickness and moisture that had not dissipated for a long time, but as soon as the Spring Festival came out as a god of calendar, these evil spirits, which were not threatening at all, dissipated, and after giving this New Year gift , Xiao Nanzhu naturally has to do his own business.

Three days ago, he made an appointment with that fatty Cao who worked in insurance, and the appointment was on the first day of the new year because the matter was quite urgent, so there was no room for waiting.Fatty Cao vaguely revealed to him what the matter might be, and after hearing this, Xiao Nanzhu felt that it was not an easy matter to solve.It was impossible for him to go there alone, so on the one hand, he deliberately chose the Spring Festival, and on the other hand, he found another helper for himself.

"Let me tell you something. You have a colleague who will come to work with you this afternoon."

Xiao Nanzhu was smoking a cigarette while talking with the Spring Festival. When he said this, he was purely in a tone of notice, but the Spring Festival, who was peeling pistachios for himself to eat, still had an inexplicable bad feeling.After all, he is usually very popular, except that he has a bad relationship with a certain guy who is not good, so he is cute, but he is thinking about it, and he is only a few days away from him, and when the kid trembles When he asked who it was, Xiao Nanzhu first glanced at him, and then said with an expression that needs to be explained,

"Who else could it be? New Year's Eve! He was absent from work for most of the day yesterday, so of course he has to work overtime today. Spring Festival, aren't you familiar with him? Doesn't make sense?"

Spring Festival:"…………"

……

When Spring Festival was still young, he liked New Year's Eve very much.

At that time, Lunar New Year's Eve was still a divine monarch with extraordinary bearing. Compared with the cold and terrifying him in the future, he was dressed in red and gold armor at that time, and he was as vigorous as a divine soldier from the sky.This majestic appearance made the big Nian and the young Nian who were also children very envious. They admired the great New Year's Eve from the bottom of their hearts. Whenever he was free, the two little brothers would run together to the place that belonged to Mr. New Year's Eve. Every time, this New Year’s Eve uncle who smiles like a scorching sun will entertain them with great interest. Not only will he give them all kinds of delicious small cakes, but even the tone of his words is warm and heartfelt. like him.

"You two little fellows, why did you come here again?"

"Hey, don't be afraid of Ah Nian, yes, he doesn't bite, come, Xiao Nian, touch his mane, he is still a child, just three thousand years old like you!"

"I said big and small years, but don't call me Uncle New Year's Eve anymore. I'm obviously only old enough to be your elder brother..."

The smile of the man in red in the memory seems to be a little blurry. I don’t know when New Year’s Eve has become different. Every time I recall the past during the Spring Festival, I feel bitter in my heart, but no matter who he is No matter how unwilling, he and Xiaonian both understood that the New Year's Eve uncle they liked would never come back.

The gloomy and lonely New Year's Eve replaced the original New Year's Eve. He was not the one who was kind to everyone, loved children and animals, and what remained in his body was a violent soul that could kill anyone at any time.Even though the Spring Festival itself couldn't accept it at the beginning, but after he witnessed how the New Year's Eve was killed, he never had the courage to take the initiative to meet the daunting New Year's Eve Lord.

In the depths of my memory, the man in red, who was soaked in blood like a yaksha, raised his head and panted heavily. He shivered and curled up on the edge of his calendar paper. His whitened wrists were covered with hideous wounds, and the strong smell of blood was suffocating. I couldn't help but gag, those bloody palms grabbed half of the evil cheek, this was the evidence that he went crazy to kill before, at this moment, there was no trace of blood on his pale face, and the young man beside him The beast had already wailed and hid far away, but when the trembling Spring Festival tried to get closer to have a look at New Year's Eve, he only saw a drop of blood falling from New Year's Eve's bright red eyes, and then he didn't even look at his eyes. Mr. New Year's Eve tremblingly said in a voice that made his eyes sore,

"Get out...or...I'll kill you right away."
