As soon as I entered the house, I saw that my parents were at home, and there was a middle-aged man in a suit I didn't recognize, who looked about the same age as my father.

"This is Xiao Qian, right?" When the man saw me, his eyes lit up, "It's all grown so big!" ”

"Yes, yes!" Dad replied with a smile, and then he turned to me and said, "This is your Uncle Xu!" ”

"Uncle Xu!" I said hello and rushed into my room, pulled out a piece of clothing, and rushed out of the house again, without stopping in between. It wasn't until I was outside the door that my voice came home: "Mom, Dad, I'm going to keep a watch for my glasses tonight, you don't have to leave the door for me!" ”

"This kid is always in such a hurry!" Mom said to Uncle Xu apologetically.

Dad also explained: "His hair died in an accident, so he ......"

"I understand, I understand," Uncle Xu said with a smile as he glanced in the direction ......I was out.

By the time I arrived at the mourning hall in glasses, it was already completely dark.

There is a statue of glasses on the mourning hall, and he is still smiling so brightly and so sunny in the posthumous portrait, it is really hard to imagine that the person who died will be him.

There were only three people burning paper money in the huge mourning hall, which made the already gloomy place even more desolate. The glasses family had no relatives and friends, his father died young, and there was only one blind mother in the family; And his only friends are Xiao Ai, Tanzi and me. Now these four people have gathered in this mourning hall and accompanied him to complete the last part of the road on earth with him by the coffin.

When the altar saw me come in, he let me in, pointed inside, and patted me on the shoulder, but said nothing. I didn't say a word, but silently walked up to his spirit and bowed to the incense. The coffin of the glasses was placed in the center of the mourning hall, under the statue, and I wanted to look at him again before the glasses left, but I found that the glasses in the coffin were completely covered by a white cloth, and I couldn't see his face at all. So, I had to go to the brazier and burn the paper for him.

The mother of the glasses didn't know how many times she had cried and fainted, but at this time she just leaned on Xiao Ai's shoulder, crying silently. Xiao Ai was holding the hand of her glasses mother in one hand, and the other hand was also adding paper money to the brazier. She sobbed softly, muttering something in her mouth, and I couldn't hear it even though it was not far away.

The ancients once said, "The dead are gone, but the living are like this." Now the smiling man in the photo is lying in a cold coffin, but can the living really continue to live strongly? I glanced at my mother, who had glasses, and I couldn't find the slightest hint of the words of the ancients in her. A mother pinned all her life's hopes on her only son, and now that her son is gone, her hope is gone, can she really be strong? I can't help but feel deeply worried about my mother with glasses.

The four of them sat and sat silently like this all the time...... I don't know how long it took, I stood up and walked to the side of the glasses mother and Xiao Ai and said, "Auntie, it's getting late, let Xiao Ai accompany you back to rest for a while, here is me and Tanzi to accompany the glasses, you don't have to worry about ......" Seeing that she was indifferent, I continued: "...... If you continue like this, your body will definitely not be able to bear it......" I signaled to the altar, and he also stepped forward and persuaded him bitterly.

With Xiao Ai's help, the old lady finally nodded and agreed to go back to rest, and Tanzi and I breathed a sigh of relief.

I sat on the edge of the brazier with the altar, burning paper money and talking.

"What happened to the glasses, how could people disappear for no reason?" I asked.

Tanzi sighed: "Here's the thing...... The professors of their unit discovered the existence of an ancient relic in some ancient books, so they approved them to send someone to investigate first. But who knew that on the second day after entering the mountain where the ruins were, the entire expedition team was completely silent, as if the world had evaporated. It wasn't until half a month later, five days ago, that someone found a body in the river below the mountain, and when it was found, the body was completely swollen and unrecognizable. Later, after a DNA test by the police, it was confirmed that the deceased was a glasses ......"

I frowned and asked, "How many people are there in their expedition?" ”

"A group of twelve."

"Only the corpse of glasses was found?"

Tanzi nodded and said, "That's right, only one person was found with glasses." ”

I was puzzled and muttered, "And where are the other eleven people?" ”

Tanzi said: "Then it is not clear, I heard that the police have closed the mountain after the disappearance of the expedition team, and sent a rescue team to search in the mountain, but until now there is no eyebrow, only know that they entered the mountain, but no one knows where they entered from." Those eleven people still haven't seen anyone alive or dead, and the families of those people are going crazy, especially after finding the body of the glasses, they are even more worried. ”

I suddenly thought: "You said that the glasses were found in the river below the mountain, could it be that they were washed out by the underground river in the mountain?" ”

Tanzi nodded and said, "That's true, and the police also deduced it like this." Therefore, they also deliberately sent a professional diving team to search for the underground river, but the underground river had many branches, too fast flow, and too much danger, so in the end they had to give up this plan. ”

"The glasses were drowned?" I asked casually.

"No, the autopsy showed that the glasses died of an acute heart attack."

"Heart attack?" I screamed and stood up, and said categorically, "Impossible!" ”

Tanzi was also surprised by my overreaction, he looked at me and asked, "What, what do you know?" ”

I walked slowly to the coffin of the glasses and said, "I remember that it was before the Chinese New Year last year, I just came back, and the glasses told me that he had chest pain, so I took him to the hospital to see a doctor friend of mine." Originally, he thought he had a heart attack, but a test revealed that it was pleurisy. During the examination, my doctor friend said that the heart of the glasses is very healthy, and the cardiovascular system looks transparent one by one, without any signs of blockage. He also said that if such a heart can be maintained, he will definitely not get a heart attack, but ...... How could he have died of a heart attack...... It's only been a year, right? ”

"You don't believe that Yutian died of a heart attack?" Xiao Ai's voice came from the door of the mourning hall, without any emotion.

I turned to look at her, "You don't believe that either?" I paused for a moment and then continued, "Auntie is all settled?" ”

Xiao Ai stepped forward and nodded in response to my second question. She walked up to me, stared blankly at the glasses covered with white cloth in the coffin, and said, "Yutian and I were planning to get the certificate for a while, so a few days before he left, I took advantage of the time to go for the marriage examination. During the examination, whether it was an electrocardiogram or a B-ultrasound, we were still very healthy......"
