Story 66 Lighting the Sky Lantern (6)
"I'm sorry Beichen, I hurt you...... I'm sorry Beichen...... I'm sorry" was Qingqiu's last sentence to me.
Then the man with a meaty face slowly walked into me, and his face was infinitely magnified in front of me, and I will never forget it.
"You're very cool when you her, huh...... I'll make you / cool again today! "After saying that, he lit the cannon on my body.
Then I felt that countless cannonballs were exploding everywhere on my body, and the feeling could no longer be described as painful, as if the cannonballs were not blowing up my body but my spiritual treasure......
In a trance, I saw Qingqiu slowly raise her head, looked around at the people around her, and the people who were good with her and familiar did not come, she knew that these people were kind, and she couldn't bear to see her fate, so she was relieved, and then said coldly to everyone, "I, Wei Qingqiu, cursed with my life, all the men who see my body today will die of the plague, and all women will be widowed, and the person who ignites the fire in me will suffer for the rest of his life, and the person who kills my lover will definitely cut off his children...... Ha ha...... Ha ......"
What a vicious curse, and the moment I was devoured by the darkness, I felt that this curse was too light compared to the pain we had suffered!
When I woke up, I found my grandmother sitting next to me and crying, she saw that I was awake and went out to call for someone, and after a while my grandmother walked in with her little feet dangling.
She reached out and touched my head and said, "It's okay, it's good to wake up, be careful when you walk at night in the village in the future, your Bazi is too light, and it is easy to attract unclean things." ”
I looked at my grandmother in a daze and said, "What's wrong with me?" ”
Grandma cried and said that I was not worried, it turned out that my grandmother was waiting for me to have dinner at home, but she couldn't wait for me to come back, so she came out to look for me with a flashlight, but she went all the way to the village committee and didn't see my shadow.
Later, my grandmother went to the village chief's house in a hurry, and the village chief was a little confused when he heard that I had not returned home, so he called a few strong young men in the village to look for me in the village, and as a result, they searched for a whole night, and at dawn they found me on the execution table in the west of the village.
Later, my grandmother had to invite my grandmother to collect my soul again, and I slowly woke up, and I sat up with my spirits and told me about the ghost hitting the wall.
When the grandmother heard this, she sighed and said, "Xuanwa, your eight characters are too light, it's better to walk less at night in the future!" ”
I nodded, and suddenly thought of the sights I saw, so I asked my grandmother, "Is there a sky lantern in the old family rules of our Jin family shop?" ”
The old grandmother's expression paused, and then she said slowly, "Yes...... I had one encounter when I was very young, and I was so scared that I had a fever for three days and nights. ”
"Can you tell me the story?"
Grandma looked at me with her cloudy eyes, "Why do you want to hear this?" ”
At that time, I knew that if I didn't tell my grandmother the truth, she wouldn't tell me about the events of that year, so I said to her, "Actually, since I returned to Jinjiapu, I have been dreaming that a man and a woman were burned to death on the execution table!" This dream haunted me until I saw Jin Beichen, who looked exactly like me in the old photo, and I began to suspect that I might be the reincarnation of Jin Beichen......"
The old grandmother was stunned for a while, then reached out and touched my face and said, "It looks very similar, Jin Beichen is my cousin, he is the one who was lit with the sky lantern, and the woman who was burned to death with him is called Wei Qingqiu, the daughter-in-law of my other cousin, but unfortunately he is not blessed, he died early, and my sister-in-law was widow......ed at a young age."
It took my grandmother a whole day that day to tell me the story between the two of them......
It happened in 1943, Jin Beichen and Wei Qingqiu were originally childhood sweethearts, when Jin Beichen's father paid for him to go to school in the provincial capital, in order to let his son broaden his knowledge.
But when Jin Beichen graduated and returned to his hometown, Wei Qingqiu had already been married by her father to Jin Beichen's eldest son, Jin Beichen's uncle, but this cousin was not in good health when he was young, and he died of illness within two years.
Bei Zhenniang has always thought that her son's death was due to marrying Wei Qingqiu, a broom star, so she has always been bad to Wei Qingqiu, and Jin Beichen felt pain in her eyes.
If he hadn't left suddenly, Qingqiu wouldn't have married his cousin, let alone suffer now, because of the guilt and love in his heart, Jin Beichen went to see Qingqiu again and again.
At first, Qingqiu refused, but after a long time, even the calmest woman had a soft heart in the face of the man she loved, so they secretly got together in private.
Jin Beichen also began to prepare to leave here with Qingqiu and go to a place where no one knew them to start over.
As a result, when they were all ready, they didn't know how to be discovered by the patriarch Jin Beiting at the time, so they were escorted to the ancestral hall together for trial, but they didn't expect that both of them insisted that they were seducing each other and had nothing to do with each other.
So Jin Beiting was angry and sentenced the two to adultery, in the family rules, adultery is to be lit a sky lantern!
At that time, there were also many people who saved the two of them, especially Jin Beichen's father, who begged Jin Beiting bitterly, hoping that the patriarch could spare his son's life, and he gave Jin Beiting a lot of gold bars in private.
So on the day of the execution, Wei Qingqiu was lit with a sky lantern, and Jin Beichen was changed to the punishment of the fire fight, Gu said that the two people were tortured at the same time that day, Wei Qingqiu saw Jin Beichen struggling on the ground in pain, and in despair, she issued an extremely resentful curse.
After that, things were as expected, Wei Qingqiu was burned to death on the spot, and Jin Beichen was seriously injured and carried back, he lay at home for three years, but in the end he still became a waste, the skin on his body was sticky together because of severe burns, and the whole person could only curl up like a prawn, lying on the bed, and when he moved slightly, his heart hurt.
Later, his father saw that he was in too much pain, so he began to ask him to smoke Fushou ointment to alleviate his pain, but Jin Beichen's body was already wasted, and if he smoked that thing again, he would naturally not have a few days to live!
Jin Beichen finally took his last breath after Wei Qingqiu's death for 5 years, and it was during these 5 years that Wei Qingqiu's curse was fulfilled one by one!
Jin Beichen persisted for five years, as if he was waiting for this curse to be fulfilled, and only after he saw that all the people who had harmed him and Wei Qingqiu did not end well, he closed his eyes with satisfaction. (To be continued.) )
