Chapter 13: Accustomed to this absurd world
"Jiuyi, don't touch my son. ......"At this time, my mother saw that I was being beaten, and rushed to me crying.
But just two steps after she ran away, she was pushed and stopped by the long-tongued women in the village.
"You brutes, what's the matter, do you want to take the opportunity to suck a few mouthfuls of blood when my old man has an accident, my wife will tell you today, human blood steamed buns are not so delicious, whoever eats them today I guarantee that he will die!" My grandmother looked at the crowd and shouted.
"Mrs. Li, don't be a high school here, since your family moved to our village, strange things have always happened, you just don't know." It was the widow of the king at the head of the village who said this.
"That's it, it's their family who brought the disaster!"
"Yes, yes, look at that old man, he is so old, he pretends to be a ghost all day long, what kind of good person can he be!"
At this time, someone in the crowd immediately chimed in.
"I'll fuck you uncle, whoever says another word will try!" I couldn't stand it anymore when I listened to the insults they were using at my grandparents for no reason, and I got up and tried to fight them.
But it backfired, and just when I just got up and didn't stand firmly, the two dogs took the lead again, and I was pushed and sat down by a group of people.
"What's the matter, the kid is not convinced! Come to the second dog master, I will let you know today that I know that I know that it is amazing! The two dogs barked and prepared to do it to me again.
"Don't touch my grandson, what's going on at my old man!" At this moment, Grandpa's roar came from behind me.
After hearing my grandfather's roar, the crowd of onlookers looked at my grandfather.
When they saw my grandfather staggering up from the ground, someone immediately said, "Alas, what a good old man! This old man Li is usually not bad, are we mistaken! ”
"Hey, I don't know my face but I don't know my heart, you look at the old man's current appearance, he still looks like a person! It's clear that you've been ghosted! ”
"Yes, yes, this old man pretends to be a ghost all day long, and it's normal to be ghosted!"
"That's it, that's it, and I've heard that people who are on the body of ghosts are pinched to death when they see people, so let's be careful!"
"Then what are we waiting for, hurry up and tie up this old man! It's really not good, just burn it! There is no such scourge to spare! ”
At this moment, I was crawling on the ground, and my back was not very painful when I was punched and kicked by Ergou and others, but my heart was very painful.
Because I listened to the sneers and sneers of my grandfather from the onlookers at this time, and I couldn't do anything about it, and I couldn't even argue with it, I felt as if my heart was dripping blood for a moment!
At this moment, I hate it so much, I hate Ergou and I hate myself, I hate the reversal of black and white by the onlookers, and I am even more ruthless in this absurd world......
………………………………
Later, they did tie up my grandfather and me, and sealed the door of my house.
Guarded 24 hours a day, our family can't go there except for our own yard, but fortunately, someone will deliver vegetables and something at a fixed time every week.
Since the incident that night, the village chief rushed into our house with a large group of people and looted my family's money and furniture, leaving only bedding and clothes.
And he even said in front of my mother and me, "Don't blame me! It's all for the good of your family! ”
And this is not what makes me the most angry, what makes me the most angry and unwilling is that since that night, people have been talking about it in front of my house almost every day, and at night there are children standing at the gate of my house shouting: "Heaven and earth are spirits, the Li family is full of ghosts!" ”
Even worse, at night people would throw firecrackers into my yard, saying that they were driving away evil spirits and catching ghosts......
It was as if from that moment on, our family really became a plague place, and my family and I really became the so-called cannibalistic demons, nailed to the pillar of shame forever.
And this is the funniest part, my grandfather has been doing evil spirits and ghost hunting all his life, but in the end he has been regarded as evil ghosts.
And what is even more ridiculous is that those who shout for justice never think that justice will be nailed to the pillar of shame by their own hands.
From that night on, I knew that I couldn't wash it in vain anyway, because the eyes of the people who looked at me were black.
But because of this, from that day on, I secretly swore in my heart every day: "This revenge will not be avenged!" ”
………………………………
And so, about four days later, it was an early evening, a very normal evening.
But I will always remember that ordinary evening, because my grandfather didn't hold it that day, and finally accompanied the sunset and climbed to Elysium.
I will always remember that day, it was an early evening, the sun was setting, and the weather was overcast and cold.
My mother and I were busy in the kitchen, my grandmother was sitting in the sun in the yard with my grandfather, my grandfather was leaning on a wooden chair with his eyes slightly closed, his hair was gray and desolate, and the whole bone could be seen directly through the skin, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and he was not angry at all.
There was still a bustling shouting outside the door, and from time to time someone would throw things in, but the grandparents didn't hide from it, as if they had completely blocked off the outside world.
Or maybe they have lived for most of their lives, and they have long been accustomed to this era and all living beings in this era.
Isn't that what people are like in this era? No matter what kind of things a person has done before, what kind of person he is, as long as the public says that he is holy, that is, and the public says that he is dirty, then he is dirty.
Because the masses don't like to think, and they never do, they like to listen to other people's opinions and like to go with the flow. Maybe it's because they're tired! Or maybe they like to obey!
………………………………
But one thing that happened that night made me happy, that is, someone took the initiative to open the door and walked in to see my grandfather.
And that person is none other than Fang Min, who was broken up by me before, the Fang Min who my grandfather liked very much and grew up with my childhood sweetheart.
As soon as Fang Min pushed the door in, he shouted very enthusiastically: "Grandpa Li, I'm here to see you!" ”
"Oh! It's a Fang girl! Come in and sit. My grandfather lay on the chair and moved slightly, wanting to do it, but finally lay down, looked at Fang Min and said with a smile.
"Fang Min, why are you here?" I took the things in Fang Min's hand, looked at her and asked a little strangely.
"What's wrong? Why can't I come, you're not welcome! Fang Min stared at my eyes and said a little deliberately.
"No, no, of course welcome!" I hurriedly said.
