Chapter 68: Who is my mother?
Outside the church of Remixes, the old abbot called me out, and it seemed that there was something special that I had to tell me alone, so I followed him into the basin behind the church.
In fact, you may ask, why is there a lot of land in the church? This place actually has a plantation, which happens to be used for the orphans here to go to biology classes.
But now those children are in the church and have not come out, the old dean and I passed the fence planted with loofahs, standing under a green shade, feeling the difference between this land and the past, I remember that there used to be a strong willow tree here, but I don't know why it is now gone.
So I asked the old abbot, and he told me that the tree was said to be too yin, and that a nun in the monastery had hanged herself under the tree, and then the tree was cut down, and I didn't know that such a thing had happened here in the church of Remises, and I was a little surprised that the old abbot mentioned it this time.
"Xiaobai, your work has been going well lately, right? Last time, I got this job for you in my name, and I don't think you'll be a police officer in a while. "Saying that, the old dean cast an approving look at me, but I knew that the police officer was purely mixed up, and he was so lucky that he became what he is today, but after this incident, many unfortunate things followed.
I thought about it, and at the same time answered the old dean's question: "Dean, thank you so much last time, if it weren't for that, I might still be single now!" ”
"Hehe, it's okay, since your parents died, I entrusted you here, I have to take care of you, you don't know, at that time, you would be arrested at every turn, and your parents had to work against the government, so there was no way."
In fact, I don't know much about my parents' past, and I don't know much about their deaths, so I am extremely confused in my heart, and today I happened to be walking with the old dean, so I took the opportunity to ask him about my parents: "Old dean, in fact, the death of my parents, you should know, it's been so long, can you tell me all the things in the past?" ”
Hearing me say this, the old dean did not speak immediately, but sighed deeply, put his arm on my shoulder and said after a while: "Xiaobai, since this is the case, I should tell you what happened 18 years ago, anyway, this matter has been suppressed in my heart for a long time, and you are growing up now, it's time for you to know it!" ”
I nodded, and fetched a long wooden chair from near the loofah shed, and the two of us sat down, and facing the natural scenery of the plantation, the old dean began to tell me about the events that had happened when I was a child.
He said that my father happened to be born during the Anti-Japanese War, that year, my father was still young, and my grandmother died very early, so the matter of taking care of and educating my father completely fell on my grandfather, whose family originally lived in Anlong Village.
This village was burned down by the Japanese army, and the people who remained were old, weak, sick and disabled, and they were not found because they hid in an air-raid shelter.
At that time, my grandfather was also one of the people who hid here, but he didn't know that the guy locked the door of the bomb shelter, and when the grandfather wanted to come out with those villagers, he was trapped inside, and he yelled: "Is there a spy in the village, how can this be?" ”
The people in the bomb shelter were all depressed, thinking that they would be fine if they escaped the Japanese army and returned to the ground, but who knew that such a thing would happen again, after a period of time in a dark and damp place like the basement, most of the people could not withstand the cold and starved to death, and the grandfather was not much better, but he continued to look for other roads in the bomb shelter with his father, who was only a few years old.
Originally, he found a day without results, but that night, grandpa and father were almost starving to death, grandpa found that there was a trace of orange light in a certain area of the air-raid shelter, seeing this, he seemed to have found a new hope Now the people in the cave are basically out of breath, only grandpa and father can barely support it, my father was still young and didn't know what happened, but he must have been hungry after a few days without anything to his stomach, so he cried out.
It doesn't matter if there is no sound, but when my father cried, my grandfather found that the orange light not far away just now was actually drifting towards them, and normal people would be surprised if they saw such a phenomenon, not to mention that people at that time still believed in things like gods and ghosts.
At that moment, Grandpa was not nervous, because he knew that if he continued like this, he would only starve to death like those villagers, and if there was something far away, what if there was a chance to help him?
Grandpa picked up his father with difficulty, and then walked forward slowly, and the light slowly got closer and closer, but at this moment the orange light gradually disappeared, and the person who appeared in front of the grandfather had already become a woman in a white nurse's uniform.
After understanding it, Grandpa was not afraid, although he saw that the nurse's face became torn and deep, and there were countless roundworms crawling around on his forehead, but he was still calm, maybe this was the last moment when he was about to starve to death! He didn't even feel what was in front of him.
At that time, his father was still young, and he didn't know what was going on, he only felt his grandfather's feet slowly soften and sat on the ground, and soon he began to lose consciousness next to the wall, but the nurse woman picked up his father from his grandfather's arms, and the woman didn't know that she used that ability to actually take her father through the bomb shelter, and then walked towards a forest in Anlong Village
A few days later, because of the support of the Red Army, the old dean's father opened the iron door of the bomb shelter, found the bodies of his grandfather and other villagers, and buried them in the cemetery of Anlong Village, and then there was no news of his father, until I don't know when he grew up like a normal person, and met the old dean, near Anlong Village is Remesis Church, but the church was built during the Liberation War, so grandpa did not have this.
My father and the old dean had cooperated during the Liberation War, and my father was an underground party worker, and the Kuomintang often slaughtered communists at that time, so my father had to stay in the Remesses church for a day.
Originally, there was no accident in this arrangement, but then my father received a notice from his superiors that the church of Remisis had been exposed and asked him to leave immediately.
That night, my father hurriedly said goodbye to the old dean, telling him what had happened, and the old dean wanted to take the initiative to send them when he found out, but my father refused, and the dean thought that the two of them had known each other earlier, and if there was anything, the Kuomintang did not dare to touch their church invested by the British. Therefore, there was no send-off.
So my father left overnight, and left me, who was less than 1 year old, in Remisis, and the old dean raised me in this way, and it was stormy and rainy that night, and sure enough, some national troops came to the church to sweep it, but in the end they didn't find out, the old dean and his wife thought that this was the end, who knew that those national soldiers insisted that they hand over their father, so they killed the killer.
But they did not kill the old dean and his wife, but slaughtered the orphans here, when the old dean was held hostage by several officers and soldiers and could not move at all, I was robbed by several officers and soldiers, and was about to be killed, when suddenly from the outside of the orphanage there was a sound of glass shattering.
At the same time, those national soldiers thought that there was movement outside and ran out half, the officer looked at the spot, at that time the dean said how he could not believe it, the same Chinese, they actually did some such cruel crimes, even the people of their own country did not let go, watching several orphans were killed, he even had the idea of suicide, why as a dean, he could not even protect the children here?
Infinite self-blame and remorse made his head extremely heavy, he didn't know why since the loud bang, he saw the appearance of a woman in white out of the window, the white dress was actually a neat set of nurse's uniform, she just broke through the glass window, and walked directly into the church, a person is not like a person, a ghost is not like a ghost, so frightened that everyone present almost ran away, but the old dean stood there in place, and his wife was also lying on the ground frightened.
The old dean faced the long-haired nurse, and although he was afraid, he couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?" What are you doing here? ”
The nurse did not answer the old dean's question, but as soon as she spoke, she said, "Give me back that child!" ”
"You're talking about that kid?" The old dean didn't know who the child she was talking about at that time, but the nurse had her hair flowing loosely, and a touch of bright red blood slowly seeped out of the white dress.
Then her head slowly lifted, and countless roundworms crawled on her forehead, and if my grandfather was still alive at the moment, he would have recognized this nurse as the one who took my father at that time.
But the old dean didn't know about it, and he could only shout in the face of the nurse's terrible face: "There are ghosts! His wife had already fainted, and the whole church was gone, and only a few candles that had not been extinguished were still flickering alone.
But the nurse didn't mean to harm them, she just kept repeating, "Give me that child!" At the same time, he pointed to the neighborhood of me, and motioned for the old dean to carry the baby on the table.
I was crying at the time, but since the old dean trembled and handed me to the nurse, I stopped crying, as if I had returned to my mother, and I didn't know what had happened, but no one ever knew who my mother was.
Even the old dean had heard about this matter, and it was even more unfounded when I heard others say that I saw my father and mother together.
It's all one to ten, ten to hundred, but the more it is transmitted, the taste also changes, even if it hurts a person, it will be misrepresented as killing a person, which is the so-called hearsay.
Anyway, I still don't know who my mother is, why did the nurse in white carry me out of the church? If she hadn't suddenly appeared that year, it is estimated that I would have died by now, and I wouldn't have lived at all, she was indeed helping me, and this woman was not exactly what Qin Shan had seen in the photo he gave me before?
That happened to be the incident of Long Qiu falling into the stinky ditch and dying, and then Tong Xin and I entered Japanese cuisine, and I also saw her once in the kitchen outside, although I don't know who she is now, but I can be sure, she is back, reappeared in my life, put away thinking, the old dean said to me: "Xiaobai, this plantation is said to have been a hospital before, but now it has been rebuilt, the 20 meters away, and an old building I heard that it is left by the hospital." ”
Hearing him say this, a wave of surprise and surprise appeared on my face, "Is there such a thing?" ”
The old dean nodded calmly, sighed meaningfully, and said: "I told you so much just now, and I also put down this stone back then, you can do things by yourself in the future, after all, I can't take care of you for a long time." ”
"Got it!" At this moment I stood up, using the ability of the ghost hunting senses to look towards the old building of the hospital
