Chapter 7 The Great Purge
After returning home, Lao Chen was shocked by what happened just now.
"How could this happen? It's impossible, it doesn't make sense... Even if Su Tan was worried that I might encounter danger on this trip and lied to scare me, it couldn't be such a coincidence." Lao Chen felt mixed emotions.
After more than ten years of getting along, how much ability does Su Tan have that Lao Chen still can't see?
To put it nicely, Su Tan is a half-immortal fortune teller, to put it bluntly... that's just a trick to deceive people.
Who doesn't have some confidence in the surrounding area?
Ordinary people go to him for fortune-telling, not because he really has any ability, but because the things they encounter are really difficult, and there is no other way. They want to listen to some pleasant words to deceive themselves and ask for good luck. Whether he is accurate or not, everyone knows it.
In Lao Chen's cognition, how can Su Tan really tell fortunes?
But just now... it was really too weird.
…
Su Tan didn't know Lao Chen's entanglement.
After sending the village chief away, he began to explore the environment in the room again.
He touched every floor, every wall, the front and back of the house, the furnishings in the room, etc. more than once.
Of course, he didn't mind touching it a few more times.
The more familiar you are with the room, the more convenient your life will be. The utility room, bedroom, living room, courtyard, toilet...
Su Tan is getting more and more familiar with it.
Especially the toilet, which has been specially modified to be convenient for the blind.
Speaking of this, Su Tan almost got sick because he didn't ask about the location of the toilet on the first day.
Later, he asked the village chief. Although the village chief was puzzled for a moment when Su Tan suddenly couldn't find the toilet, he didn't ask too much.
After groping over and over again, Su Tan was quite familiar with the structure of the house.
As long as he didn't mess things up, he could act as he pleased.
The objects in the room, such as cups, bowls, water, etc., are all well known.
In his mind, he also imagined the shape of the house.
A wooden tile house.
Ancient architecture.
It has two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, a utility room, and a toilet.
Outside the house, there is a fence that surrounds the house. Outside the fence is a road that leads in and out of the village... But Su Tan doesn't know if this road is the only one.
There is also a small yard in front of the door. There are two flower beds in the yard, which are also surrounded by fences. There are unknown flowers planted in them. It is not known whether the old Chen family planted them for Su Xiazi or Su Xiazi planted them himself.
The flowers smell very good.
In addition, there is a big tree in the courtyard, and there are tables and chairs under the big tree.
Usually, Su Tan likes to lie on the bench in the yard, listen to the birds, smell the flowers, feel the fresh air, and feel the sunshine...
He can't see it, but in his mind, he will automatically imagine the blue sky and white clouds, birds singing and flowers fragrant, small bridges and flowing water, and people under the tree taking a cool...
After getting familiar with the surrounding environment, Su Tan finally felt a little more secure.
What can give people a sense of security?
It is undoubtedly a house that belongs to him, his own home!
If he does not consider the source of food, Su Tan is sure that he can survive in this house without relying on vision.
Of course, it will be a bit boring.
Blind people are very bored. They cannot read books. All activities related to vision are out of his reach.
In front of him, except for the picture given by the system, everything else is black and empty.
After being completely familiar with the house, Su Tan felt that he needed to go out of the house in the future to feel the outside world, or find something to do, otherwise he would be bored to death.
Su Tan knew his current situation. He certainly could not go out now. If he went out, he might not even find the way back.
So, he could only find something to do.
He fumbled by himself and sorted out the bedding, clothes, etc., ready to wash them.
Su Tan has a mild mysophobia.
He does not like sloppy and dirty things.
But liking cleanliness... does not seem to be a disadvantage.
When he first came to this world, Su Tan had a prejudice against his clothes, quilts, and mattresses.
At the beginning, he didn't even know the environment in the room, so it was impossible to wash clothes. Now... he really couldn't bear it.
Touching the bed, he took off the quilt cover and sheets. Even without eyes, he could do this well.
Holding the bedding, he tiptoed to the well, put them in the wooden basin, and tiptoed back to the room to collect all the dirty clothes.
While exploring the room, Su Tan already knew where these things were placed.
"Blind Su really doesn't care about his appearance at all!" Su Tan was helpless, and had a deep prejudice against the previous owner of his body.
None of that guy's clothes were clean.
Washing clothes is indeed a big challenge for Su Tan at the moment.
Draw water from the well, soak the clothes in water, and then use the bag of "cleaning powder" that Su Blind didn't know how many times he hadn't used, and it was already covered with dust, to rub carefully.
Swish, swish, swish~!
Su Tan didn't know which was dirty and which was not, he just washed it by feeling.
But according to his intuition, none of these things seemed clean, so he simply washed them all over.
This was a big project.
Washing clothes took up a lot of his time. Five pieces of clothes, three pieces of pants, plus bedding, shoes, etc., took up a lot of Su Tan's time.
"I was so busy that my back and waist ached. I don't know if I washed them clean."
"At least it's cleaner than before!" Su Tan checked the bamboo poles in the yard for drying clothes. No one had used them for a long time, but they still functioned.
He hung the clothes and sheets one by one on the bamboo pole.
The scent of cleaning powder is astounding.
Su Tan stood in the yard and smiled.
Washing clothes is just a trivial matter to others, but to him, it is something to be proud of.
Especially doing laundry as a blind person for the first time is a sense of accomplishment.
"The temperature is not low today. It should be dry by the evening!"
The place for drying clothes has plenty of sunshine.
Su Tan turned around and put the wooden basin, cleaning powder and other things back to their original places, and lay down comfortably under the big tree to rest. Unknowingly... he fell asleep and slept until night.
It was only when the grandson of Lao Chen's family came over to deliver food that Su Tan woke up.
After eating, Su Tan happily made the bed and put away the clothes after feeling that the things he washed had dried in the sun and smelled like sunshine.
“Finally a clean place to sleep, hope to have a good night’s sleep!”
At night, Su Tan was ready to go to bed, but he felt that his body was not worthy of sleeping on such a clean bed. After thinking about it, he took a shower before going to bed.
“A clean bed is comfortable.”
That night, Su Tan slept well.
Maybe he has adapted to the rhythm of life here, maybe he has accepted the fact that he is blind, or maybe it is because he washed the bed himself, so he feels safe.
All night until dawn.
After getting a clean bed, Su Tan seemed to be relieved of hersophobia.
He became increasingly disgusted with the filth in the house.
Tables, chairs, doors, windows, cabinets…
They couldn't stand it, so Su Tan picked up the water and cleaned everything that could be cleaned in the room.
Anyway, there is nothing to do. I am idle, so I might as well clean up and give myself a clean place to live.
Cleaning the house will definitely not be finished in a day or two, and Su Tan is not going to clean everything in a short time. He will take his time. He has plenty of time anyway.
Su Tan's efforts were not ineffective. He cleaned all the things he used frequently.
I don't know what changes there are with the naked eye, but Su Tan feels pretty good, much better than before.
…
This morning, Su Tan got up very early as usual.
However, he did not get up immediately to disturb, but sat on the bed.
"Calculating the time... Village Chief Chen's calamity should be coming soon. I wonder how he is doing?" Su Tan was worried.
In the past few days, every time the Chen family came to deliver meals, he would deliberately tell them a few words, asking them to tell the old village chief to pay more attention. I don't know if he listened.
