Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Tomb
Under Yu Zimo's urging, Xue An had to increase his horsepower, and the original nearly hour's drive was compressed to less than forty minutes. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"No need to rush, just cross Shaangu Avenue and arrive, my grandfather is in a small village behind the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum." Xue An explained.
"Emperor Qin's Mausoleum?"
He had never been to Huaqing Pond, and he did not know that the Mausoleum of Emperor Qin was on the edge of Huaqing Pond.
"Well, the two attractions are next to each other, less than ten miles away."
"Since that's the case, then go directly to the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum to find your grandfather."
Xue An knew that he would say this, stepped on the accelerator, and Changan Automobile drove towards the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang like a lightning speed.
"Here it is." Xue An stopped the car behind the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum and beckoned Yu Zimo to get out of the car.
The place where they got off the bus was a farmland, and there was only one tomb of the Qin Emperor as far as the eye could see.
Seeing Yu Zimo looking around, Xue An smiled and said, "Brother Yu, the road ahead is not good, so you can only get out of the car and walk in, less than a five-minute walk." ”
I see, Yu Zimo nodded.
The men walked along the narrow path, and a moment later they saw a small cemetery behind a grove of trees, with more than a dozen tombs of varying heights scattered among them.
It seems that after a long time in the sun and rain, several tombstones have diverged, and the words on them have been blurred.
There is a newly renovated hut outside the cemetery, and an old man is weeding in front of the house.
Xue An pointed at the old man and said excitedly: "That's my grandfather!" ”
The old man's back was a little rickety, and the clothes on his body looked a little thin, and now it had just entered May, and the temperature was not high enough to wear a vest.
Before a few people approached, Xue An had already waved his big hand and shouted, "Grandpa, I'm here to see you!" ”
The old man turned his head when he heard Xue An's voice, and when he saw his grandson in the distance, he couldn't help but grin knowingly.
The old man beckoned to the group and motioned for them to come over.
"Anzi, your grandfather looks very old, why do you still feel comfortable letting him live here alone?"
It is surrounded by farmland, so to speak, in the wilderness, and an old man living here is somewhat worrying, and if there is an emergency, it will really be called a day and the earth will not work.
Xue An sighed, his voice full of helplessness: "Of course we want grandpa to go home and live!" But he didn't listen, and insisted on living here as if there was some treasure here. ”
"This cottage looks like it's only been renovated for a long time, and it has air conditioning and a water heater, and you're still very thoughtful." Yu Zimo noticed the air conditioner and solar water heater outside the house.
"The family didn't know about this at all, and I did all the renovation of this hut, the installation of air conditioning, the installation of water heaters, and the LCD TV inside." Xue An complained.
"I used to come once every two or three days, but now I come over almost every other day, and my grandfather is almost eighty years old, and although he is physically tough, it is inevitable that accidents will happen."
is a filial child, Yu Zimo sighed in his heart.
As the two spoke, they had already walked to the front of the hut.
Grandpa took out a few small benches from the house and gave them to Yu Zimo.
Xue An looked at him with some apprehension, afraid that he would be unhappy, because these small benches looked dark and gray.
Yu Zimo obviously didn't care about this, so he sat down without thinking about it, and then put Miaoyu on his lap.
"Anzi, bring a friend over to play today?" The old man's eyes were cloudy, his face was crisscrossed with wrinkles, and there were a few conspicuous patches on his mud-stained clothes.
The older generation is accustomed to being simple and frugal, and even though their living standards have greatly improved now, they are still sticking to their beliefs.
"Hello grandpa, my name is Zimo, and I came to you through Anzi." Yu Zimo said as slowly as possible.
"Oh, young man, what are you looking for me?" Grandpa's eyes lit up slightly.
"I want to ask you something about the past, and if I know, I hope you can tell me in detail." Yu Zimo suppressed his agitated mood.
"Young man, you want to ask about Duanmu Feng and Yinglan, right?" The old man said in one word.
"What! How do you know! Yu Zimo's body trembled slightly, staring at the old man like a cheetah staring at its prey.
"Actually, I knew the moment you signed up, and if you want to know why, you might as well come with me."
The old man walked first to the cemetery, straight to a tomb.
Yu Zimo took Miaoyu and quickly followed!
Xue An didn't know why, so he could only follow behind with confusion.
The old man stopped in front of a tomb that looked a little new, and then quietly looked at Yu Zimo.
Yu Zimo saw the words on the tombstone clearly, and silently squatted down and stroked.
"I said, brother, what are you singing...... Ah, how so? ”
Xue An also noticed the inscription on the tombstone, and scanned back and forth between Yu Zimo and the tombstone in disbelief.
Miaoyu was illiterate and didn't know what was written on the tombstone, so she couldn't help asking, "Brother, whose grave is this?" ”
"It's mine." Yu Zimo responded in a low voice.
"The tomb of my son Mo, father Duanmu Feng, mother Yinglan, weeping!" Xue An read the words on the tombstone, a little shocked.
Immediately, he was full of doubts, since this tomb is Zimo, who is the person squatting in front of him?
Could it be a ghost?
Xue An felt goosebumps start to get all over his body, this thing is a little weird!
Yu Zimo looked at the tombstone at this time as if he was looking at himself, and he was now sure that it must be empty, because he was not dead yet!
Looking at the only thing his parents had left for him, he was a little stunned.
He seemed to be able to make up for the situation at that time, Duanmu Feng betrayed the Duanmu family, and then feared that his child would be harmed, so he set up a fake grave to declare that the child was dead, but in fact, it was quietly sent to Yangcheng and handed over to Yu Youlin to raise.
"This tombstone is so well maintained, you must have put a lot of effort into it!" Yu Zimo stood up.
"It's just a matter of trust."
The old man looked up at the white clouds floating in the sky, and fell into the contemplation of the past.
"Brother, what the hell is going on?" Miaoyu was obviously frightened by this tomb.
Obviously, my brother is in front of him, but there is an extra grave.
"Yes, Brother Yu, brother, I still have goosebumps now! You're fucking weird, buddy, I've never seen anything like this. You're not going to be a ghost, are you? ”
Xue An cautiously approached Yu Zimo, then slapped his shoulder and instantly withdrew his hand, muttering, the touch is very real, it shouldn't be a ghost, but there must be something strange in it!
Yes, there must be something strange in this!
Yu Zimo waited quietly like this, waiting for the old man to speak.
Such a scene is full of weirdness, surrounded by a barren cemetery, the cemetery is silent, the old man looked up at the sky, his eyes fluttered and he couldn't see any emotion, Yu Zimo stared at the old man motionlessly, Xue An looked at Yu Zimo with eyes full of surprise.
