Chapter 52 Fifty-first weird pocket knife

I remember that last year, the small supermarket in Miao Town held a promotional activity. The general content was that if you buy a certain amount of goods, you can get gifts.That day, Jie Chen also went to buy something, not for the event, but when he checked out, he found that the amount just reached the gift amount. Jie Chen went back to the temple and opened the small bag of gifts. Inside was a weird utensil with a plastic handle. The front part was semicircular. What's even more strange is that the blade is still facing inward. Jie Chen looked over and over, but couldn't see what the purpose of this knife is. It would be inconvenient to chop vegetables, and it would be inconvenient to sharpen pencils.

Jie Chen took this weird knife to discuss with everyone, and the conjectures of the juniors were also very fresh. From pedicure knife to carving knife, they listed more than a dozen possibilities, but finally did not come to a conclusion. Later, when Jie Ao saw the knife, he took off his shoes, and then used the knife to scrape the dirt on the soles of his shoes.He also told Jie Chen that this small knife is probably used to scrape the dirt on the shoes, and the blade will not hurt your hands if the blade is facing inward. , it will not dirty the ground of the Buddhist hall. Jie Chen carefully analyzed the possibility of Jie Ao, but still has some doubts.

Quit anger and think about the place where the benefactors live at the foot of the mountain, there will not be so much mud, and the benefactors at the foot of the mountain will certainly not have so many juniors who happily step on the mud whenever it rains.If this knife is really used for what Jieao said, then its sales will definitely be very problematic. Since I can't figure it out, I don't care about it. Jie Chen put the knife on the small stool by the gate of the temple. Most people only use it once or twice occasionally. A small group of juniors who don't like to follow the normal path.After they are used up, they will be cleaned after a period of time and continue to be placed in place.

A few months later, Jie An was chatting with several juniors in the courtyard, when suddenly a female almsgiver came in outside the temple gate to offer incense.When she walked through the door, she reached out and took the knife. Everyone was a little curious, so they followed to see. The female benefactor sat on the stone chair, took out an apple from her bag, and skillfully peeled the apple with the knife.Then everyone suddenly realized that the real purpose of this strange knife was to peel fruit. The benefactor was peeling the skin, and she looked up occasionally, but saw us staring at the apple in her hand. She looked at us suspiciously, thought for a while, and handed over the peeled apple.

The female benefactor said softly, little masters, you are welcome, I have quite a lot of apples here. Everyone hurriedly turned away while refusing. In fact, Jie Chen still felt very embarrassed in his heart, after all, we scraped the sole of the shoe many times with that knife. Thinking about this strange fruit knife, it has belonged to Jie Chen for a long time, but before the female benefactor came, Jie Chen didn't know its true purpose. The same is true of many things that we think we have, but in fact, we don't know anything about them.
