Chapter 33: Vanishing Memory

My second uncle didn't say anything, and took the pocket.

This time, my second uncle didn't even prepare old clothes for my father, so he guarded my father day and night. In the end, when my family was forced to run out of rice, my second uncle went out to take the job.

Before he left, he stood at the door and watched my grandfather for a long time, and finally left with a sigh. My grandfather couldn't speak at that time, but tears kept falling from the corners of his eyes.

My second uncle did the job, and he was a good person who didn't want to do it.

There is a lot of attention to the work of dressing old clothes, if you are a person who is dying, anyone can do the work, and the relatives can put on the clothes if they have a good physique, as long as they don't stand opposite the dead, don't let the dying breath spray is not a big deal.

However, if you are dying outside, especially those who are missing arms and legs, you have to find a special person to come and dress. In addition to putting on clothes, you have to sew back people's arms and legs. This is not something that ordinary people can do.

At that time, my second uncle took the job of a person who was run over by a train, and his head was crushed off. This job can't be accepted by ordinary people, so my second uncle can only come.

There is a particular thing about sewing a dead person's head, and it must be in the house, and the black crack must be touched without lighting the lamp. It is said that this is a rule handed down from the tailor's shop on the edge of the execution ground. When a dead person comes to the door to sew a person's head, no one can look at it, and if you look at it, you will die. The tailors who do this work are generally blind.

Later, the execution site did not cut off the head, and the craft of head tailoring was passed on to outsiders, but when sewing the head, it was necessary to touch the dark.

At that time, my second uncle locked himself in a room with a quilt covering the window, and no one dared to open the crack to look inside, so no one knew what was going on in the house, until my second uncle came out and almost scared everyone in the yard to death.

My second uncle sewed one of his hands together with the dead man's neck, and the dead man was dragged forward step by step by his hand. At that time, people who had seen my second uncle said that they didn't know if my second uncle was in a bad pain, and he shouted after walking a few steps, and the sound was not a human movement, and the blood flowed down his hands, and my second uncle stared at his eyes and kept going home.

The people from the neighboring village were so frightened that they ran to call Da Xian'er, who looked at it from a distance and waved his hand and said that he couldn't take care of it, and told the people in the village not to go over to see it, and there was no good way to go.

At that time, I had been watching my grandfather at home, and I didn't know how my second uncle came back.

But I clearly remember that at that time, my grandfather had already poured out his breath in one gulp, and he was about to die.

I was so scared that I couldn't do it, but I didn't even have anyone around to talk to. When I was in a hurry, I saw that my grandfather's panting was getting more and more even, his face gradually began to be bloody, and his eyes began to slowly become angry. I was just thinking that when my grandfather came back from the ghost gate, I heard my second uncle shouting in an earth-shattering voice at the gate of the courtyard: "Dad-"

My grandfather sat up from the kang all of a sudden, his eyes were frighteningly bright, he jumped to the ground with his hand on the edge of the kang, and ran outside without even putting on his shoes. By the time I ran out of the house with him, my second uncle was already dead, standing at the door.

The dead man in my second uncle's hand sat on the ground, and he pressed the dead man with one hand to keep him from falling. But my second uncle's two eyes stared at the door stubbornly, as if he was waiting for my grandfather to come out.

My father took out three coins from my second uncle's other hand, and only then did he separate the two of them little by little, and he went into the warehouse to sew the dead man's head back, and then he remembered to bury my second uncle.

After that incident, everyone in the village spread that my father had become a big climate, usurped the lives of his two sons, and took away their longevity, so he didn't die, but his two sons all died.

At that time, I ran home and asked my father, "Did you take the birthday of my father and my second uncle?" After hearing this, my grandfather turned his head suddenly, his eyes were frighteningly bright, I was too scared to talk to my grandfather, but my grandfather looked at me and sighed: "This place can't be lived, let's go!" ”

That night, my grandfather set up the car, pulled the coffin and quietly left the village with me, but when I woke up, I couldn't remember anything.

Just as I was desperately trying to remember what had happened that night, a pair of eyes suddenly appeared in front of my eyesβ€”they were my grandfather's eyes, as bright as he had looked at me.

I was so frightened that a spirit sat up from his chair, sweating profusely and panting, unable to utter a word.

Xie Wanhua poured me a glass of water: "Mr. Wu, it seems that I won." ”

I grabbed the glass on the table and drank it dry: "That's right, you won." ”

Lao Du was suddenly anxious: "Xiao Wu, you ...... This can't be counted! I ......"

I didn't wait for Lao Du to finish speaking, then I raised my hand and interrupted the other party: "According to the rules of the Dao, I have to admit if I lose." Such...... You hand over the business to you Dr. Xie now, if, after half a year, your business is still not in sight, you can come to me again. ”

Xie Wanhua said coldly: "Aren't you still giving up? ”

I said in a deep voice, "You tell me the rules, and I also talk to you about the rules." If you take over the business for half a year and it doesn't improve, Lao Du has the right to change the warlock. Of course, at that time, you can still reach out to me. ”

I stood up, hugged my fist at Lao Du, and walked quickly out of the clinic.

I was extremely calm on the surface, but in fact I wanted to rush home and ask my grandfather what was going on. When I came out of the clinic, I rushed to the station without even returning home.

All the way, I was thinking about my father and the three ghost coins.

In the twelve years that my grandfather passed on the art to me, he never let me touch three ghost coins, and even if I wanted to see it occasionally, he would hide it. He seems to have said: The fate of the old Wu family is closely related to the three ghost money, and if you move the ghost money, you will move your life.

On top of that, I once took the fortune money to count my father's life, and it turned out that he was a dead man, a man who had been dead for many years.

I thought I had miscalculated, and when I was about to recalculate a hexagram, my grandfather didn't know how to run into the house and scolded me with a big face, saying that I didn't know the depth, and I had nothing to do to push his life. After that, I didn't dare to count my grandfather again.

And also......

The more I think about these strange things, the more I think about them, I didn't feel anything before, but after I saw the memories of the past, I felt more and more wrong.

If my grandfather really took the birthday of my father and second uncle, I don't believe it either, my grandfather can't be that kind of person......

I went all the way home, and when I pushed the door, I saw a room full of gray hangers, cobwebs, and the ash that fell on the table could be written. Although there are no women in my family, my father is a person who loves cleanliness, and the dust in the house is wiped every day, and it is uncomfortable if he does not wipe him. The house is dirty like this, unless he hasn't been back for a while.

I walked a few steps to the edge of the kang and touched it along the kang mat. My grandfather used to leave a note there when he didn't have time to tell me. This time, there was nothing under the kang mat.

I turned around and lifted the dark board of the secret room, trying to go down to take a look, but I saw that the entrance to the secret room had been sealed tightly with yellow mud.

This is what my father did? He moved again while I wasn't there?

I was about to turn around, but suddenly I felt that something was wrong. At that time, I somehow thought that my father must be in the secret room, and he was waiting for me to go down.

As soon as this thought popped into my head, it never lingered and began to grow stronger as time went on. After a few laps around the house, I ran outside to find a pickaxe, dug open the yellow mud in two blows, and jumped into the secret room.

When I walked into the secret room, the first thing I saw was that my father was sitting cross-legged at the offering table with his back to the door.

"Masterβ€”" As soon as I shouted, I heard my grandfather sigh, "You still came back at this time, and you also broke in." I've been hiding for you for more than 20 years, and you still haven't gotten through! Half-life, the ghost vein should have a successor. Providence, no one can escape this destiny! ”

I said inexplicably: "Master, what are you talking about?" ”

My grandfather said in a deep voice: "If you don't speak, just listen to me." Actually, I'm already dead. You're talking to the dead now! ”

I couldn't help but hit a spirit: "Master, you ......"

My grandfather smiled: "Actually, you already knew that I was a dead man, right?" Do you remember all those things back then? ”

I nodded, "I remember." How did my dad and them all die? ”

My grandfather was silent for a long time before he said, "They are all for the ghost eyes to get money, and it can also be said that it is for you." ”

My grandfather didn't wait for me to speak, and said, "When you were just born, I calculated your fate, and you were fated with many disasters and dangerous steps. However, when my Wu family arrives in your generation, it can only be passed on in one line. If you are gone, the Wu family will be gone. In order for you to live, we must give you a means to fight for your life, and that is these three ghost coins in my hand. ”

My grandfather held up the leather pocket in his hand: "However, if you want to move three ghost coins, you have to put in three lives." I, your father, and your second uncle are exactly three people. ”

There was a "buzz" in my head: "Master, what do you say?" ”

My grandfather ignored my words: "I didn't let your third aunt take the ghost money at the beginning, just so that one day, I could save your life." It's a pity that I didn't save you, and I took your father and them in. ”

I said in a trembling voice: "Master, didn't you say that you didn't want to pass on my skills at the beginning, but it was the ghost money who chose me, and you passed on your skills?" ”

"Life can be known but cannot be changed, and catastrophe can be counted but cannot be avoided!" My father said something inexplicably before he said slowly, "Your father and I tried our best to change your life, but we lost." If you lose, you have to pay the price. Let me tell you more about it! ”
