My hand was on the mask of the female corpse, and I was about to bend down to uncover it, when the courtyard door of my grandmother's house behind me suddenly creaked.

"Xiuxiu." Just as I was facing the tip of the knife, a low, hoarse voice suddenly came from behind me.

I stopped moving in my hand as soon as I could, and replied in disbelief: "Dad? ”

When I looked up, I saw my dad standing up on the bed with his hands as if he had just woken up, and shouted at me with dark circles under his eyes.

The man who has been boiling in the dirt for forty or fifty years, with his reddened skin tanned by the sun, and the iron-clad man who has been poured out of sweat, just the toss of the past few days, the whole person is like a building collapsing, draining his energy, and seeing him wake up like this is even more uncomfortable than seeing him fall asleep.

"Dad." I shouted indistinctly.

My dad didn't have a very good expression on his face, and shouted at me, "Quick, stop, don't move." ”

Did he tell me about the female corpse in the coffin!?

Seeing my dad like this, it seemed that he knew that there was a big red coffin buried under the old locust tree, and after I glanced at the mask of the female corpse in the coffin, I quickly stood up and walked to my dad's side.

But in the middle of the road, he was pulled by the old man, his eyes were rolling and his brows were frowning, as if he was entangled in something to say to me.

I asked what was wrong, and the old man whispered, "Uncle Nen, is your father sick?" ”．

I wasn't happy at the time, my dad just woke up, how did he talk, I went back to your dad to get sick, why are you like this?

I said this a little loudly, and in front of my father, the old man gave me a blank look, muttered quietly, and said, "It's not like this, you listen to my explanation." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at my dad, as if there was something unspeakable.

At that time, my brain was chaotic, so I went to the side with the old man.

He first looked at my father, who was weak and leaning against the courtyard gate, and whispered in a voice that was sure my father couldn't hear, "Grandpa Nen, I forgot, I haven't told you a thing, in fact, I saw your father wake up earlier." ”

Hearing this, I was angry, and I asked again, why didn't you say it earlier, but the old man raised his eyes and looked at me strangely, and then the next sentence made me quiet.

"I saw your dad hanged."

My heart thumped.

Glancing at my dad who was already sitting up in bed, isn't this his old man?

I took my eyes away from my dad because I thought about what I had been going through and was afraid that my dad had been faked by something.

And Ye Siming didn't tell me that he got my father's soul back, even if he found it, how could he wake up like this!?

When the old man was there, he kept vigil at night, and he couldn't tell what he had really seen.

The old man saw that I was frightened, and he pulled down my sleeve and said uncertainly, "I am not sure about this matter, last time I kept vigil with Grandpa Nen, drank some wine, went out and walked around your village, and then came back and saw three shadows hanging in the pigshed, and then saw your father coming down from the beam of the house without saying a word, just like sleepwalking, and did not look at me, and lay down in the coffin again." ”

The old man said this, which made me very depressed, and I asked him, "Are you drunk and dazzled?" ”

The old man scratched his head and said, "I don't know. ”

I frowned and saw my dad's blank eyes looking at me.

"Come here, help me up." His voice has grown so old.

I walked past the old man, I went over to help my dad, and looked into the yard, where the coffin originally had two scarecrows hanging from it, but now it looked a little bleak.
