As for Fangzheng, he was the closest to the Yongle Bell. Furthermore, he was the one who struck the bell. All the effects were more obvious on him. A thought flashed in his mind as he became clearer about his future path and what he pursued. He dragged the bell hammer and struck it again!
Dong!
With a gong, the birds flying in the sky, the fish swimming in the water, and all the animals running on the ground stopped. They looked up into the sky as though they were listening to something or thinking about something …
Meanwhile, in One Finger Village at the foot of the mountain.
Du Mei was sitting on a brick bed with her pregnant belly. She rubbed her belly helplessly and said, "Good child, stop kicking. What if you tire yourself out?"
However, Du Mei was helpless because the child was very active. He kept kicking. But that wasn't all. More importantly …
Du Mei picked up the ultrasound and said gloomily, "Why is the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck? I don't want to go to the maternity ward … I'm afraid of pain too!"
Du Mei, who was known for her ferocity, nearly cried when she saw the ultrasound. It had been so many days, but she had yet to recover. She did not want to have an additional wound on her belly. It was painful and ugly. More importantly, she believed that a C-section was not good. It would damage the mother's vitality, and it was bad for both the child and the mother. She had to have a natural birth if she could, but the umbilical cord that had been wrapped three times was like a verdict. It was as though the final cut had been made.
"Silly child, you have already wrapped your neck. Don't you know how to wrap it back in the opposite direction?" Du Mei sighed. She was truly flustered. The more she thought about it, the greater the pressure she felt. Without a choice, she could only torture Yang Hua to relieve her boredom. It nearly made Yang Hua mentally weak. He was kicked out of bed in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. He would complain about the saltiness and bland taste of the food. Yang Hua would run far away, but he was afraid that his pregnant wife would be in danger at home. Du Mei could not do anything about this. She was truly vexed and felt like she would go crazy if she did not vent her frustrations.
At that moment, the little guy in Du Mei's stomach was being punched and kicked again. Clearly, the little guy in her stomach wasn't behaving.
At that moment, a gong resounded from Mt. One Finger. At that instant, Du Mei felt the vexation and worry in her heart vanish! She could not remember how long it had been since she had such a feeling. Her body and mind were clear and relaxed! It was as if a huge mountain had been removed from his heart!
However, after the bell rang, Du Mei felt bitter again. Thinking of the fact that the umbilical cord in her belly was wrapped around the baby's neck, she felt terrible.
Only then did Du Mei recall that the drum tower was completed today. From the sound, it seemed to come from Mt. One Finger. The bell on the bell tower had been hung and sounded. Du Mei also felt happy for Fangzheng, but when she thought of herself, she felt bitter …
Dong!
Another bell rang out. Du Mei was mentally prepared, and the impact wasn't as great. Although the pressure in her heart lightened and she felt a lot more comfortable, she still felt a bit depressed and worried. However, at this moment, Du Mei realized that the child in her stomach seemed to be turning around!
"The doctor said that I have to massage in this direction when I'm free. I want the child to turn over on his own and untie the umbilical cord. She had been massaging him for so long that Yang Hua was almost in despair, but it didn't seem to work. Why is it reacting to the sound of the bell? " After Du Mei recovered from her shock, she was overjoyed. She hurriedly took out her phone and called Yang Hua. She wanted Yang Hua to inform Fangzheng before striking the bell!
However, before he could pick up the phone, the third bell rang.
Dong!
"It's moving! It moved! It's turning around! Hahaha! "Du Mei danced in joy as she shouted in excitement. It alarmed her mother, who was working outside. She hurriedly ran in to take a look. Upon hearing Du Mei's explanation, Du Mei's mother was also extremely excited. She even knelt in the direction of Mt. One Finger and kowtowed. She chanted Amitabha and prayed for Du Mei and the child.
Dong!
Another bell sounded. Du Mei really felt the child in her stomach turn around. At this rate, it would soon be able to untie the problem of the umbilical cord around its neck. She was happy and excited! She seemed to see hope amidst the bell …
At the same time, in the fields of Backriver Village, Zheng Huo was chasing after Zheng Jiaxing with a fire stick. As he hit him, he cursed, "You bastard. I told you to buy a tortoise for your wife to nourish her body, but you ended up buying me an old hen! Are you that stingy? Is our family that poor? What happened to your gambling skills? "
"Dad, stop hitting me. Do you think a tortoise is something that can be bought just because you want to? My legs are about to break from running, but I can't sell it! I didn't buy an ordinary old hen either. It's a pheasant! "Zheng Jiaxing yelled.
"You idiot! Pheasant my ass! Do you think I don't know what a pheasant is? The pheasants I caught when I was young have more feathers than you have on your head! This is a pheasant reared by humans. It doesn't come from the mountains! What use can it have? It's inferior to our old hen! "Zheng Huo roared.
"Aiyah, Old Man, quickly calm down. It's fine if you bought the wrong thing. Just teach him more in the future." Zheng Jiaxing's mother could not stand it any further as she tugged at Zheng Huo.
Zheng Huo was infuriated. Just as he was about to shout, he heard a distant dong. It sounded like a heavenly chime. His anger instantly dissipated. However, being someone who cared about his reputation, he glared at Zheng Jiaxing and grunted before returning to his room.
"Hehe, that bell was really nice. It was as though someone was chanting scriptures beside my ear. It felt so comfortable. Where did it come from?" Zheng Jiaxing's mother asked out of curiosity.
Zheng Jiaxing hurriedly said, "I know! One Finger Monastery! It's definitely One Finger Monastery! Didn't One Finger Monastery just renovate the bell tower? It's likely that they have begun using it! Man, I missed it. Sigh. Hongyan Monastery is dozens of kilometers away from us. Hongyan Monastery's bell can't reach us … That's not right! One Finger Monastery is more than fifty kilometers away from us. How can we hear it? "
"What are you talking about? If you can't figure it out, go over and take a look. If not, make a phone call to ask. This bell sure is nice. It would be great if it could ring every day, "said the granny.
Zheng Jiaxing immediately made the phone call. He had to make the call because the bell had saved him a beating …
In the middle of Mt. Tongtian, a fence surrounded a mud hut. In the yard were some herbs and flowers. There was also a huge rock with a tea set on it. By the side were a few tiny pebbles. A Daoist sat there, picked up a teacup, blew at it, and took a sip. Then, he said leisurely with a smile, "Good tea. Good tea … Hehe …"
On careful look, there was no tea in the cup. There were only a few unknown leaves in it. However, Perfected Letian was shaking his head as he drank it. He looked extremely happy. There was also a tiny table outside the fence. On it was a teapot and a few teacups. Two huge rocks were used as stools.
