One: Ghost Marriage 8: Chenjia Village
Thinking of this, Chuan Mi panicked and unintentionally touched the table with his hand. The candle on the table flickered a few times, and a small piece of incense ash fell from the incense stick. The most troublesome thing is that the photo frame placed in front of Xiang fell down directly because of the shaking of the impact of Chuanmi, knocking the black and white photos on the desktop.
Chuan Mi was startled by the "bang" of this photo frame, although the sound was very small, but the silent environment made the sound particularly harsh.
Chuan Mi hurriedly picked up the photo and straightened the frame...... Something unexpected happened, which really scared Chuan Mi enough.
The grandmother in the black-and-white photo just now was still smiling and smiling, but at this time she was glaring angrily and looked very angry.
This scared Chuan Mi enough, took a few steps back, and hit the coffin directly. Under the coffin, there were originally two tiger stools, one in front and one in the back, and this collision directly collapsed the back, and the tail of the coffin smashed directly to the ground. The lid of the coffin then slipped backwards, revealing a third of it.
Chuan Mi knew that he was in trouble, but he didn't dare to look behind him, for fear of seeing something even more terrifying. She remained motionless, clinging to the mouth of the coffin. It was quiet at this time, Chuan Mi clasped her hands on her chest, and she could clearly feel her heartbeat accelerating, and she fell together with her chest against her hands. The complete silence of the room made her hear her own pounding heartbeat again.
At this moment, a hand stretched out from the half of the coffin and grabbed Chuan Mi's shoulder. Chuan Mi screamed in fright, "Ah!! ”
Another hand reached out from the coffin, and quickly covered her mouth so that she would not make a sound.
Chuan Mi couldn't care so much, struggled hard, and just as he was about to break free, he suddenly heard a voice in the coffin, "It's me, don't make trouble!" You be quiet. ”
This voice is a man's voice, so familiar, Chuan Mi reacted immediately, this is the voice of the fifth wood. How did he end up in this coffin? With the Fifth Wood, she was much calmer and regained her confidence. Gradually, she also calmed down.
The fifth wood forest stood up from the coffin, and Chuan Mi took the handle and helped him out of it. The fifth wood slowly scanned the room, and finally landed on the black and white photo of the old woman.
"I see......"
Chuan Mi was curious, "Did you find anything?" ”
Fifth Mu Lin was still staring at the black and white photo of the old woman, but asked, "Why did you send me a message now?" ”
Chuan Mi was confused by the question, "Now?" Just? Information? ”
Fifth Mulin sighed and said, "Hey...... Looks like you've drunk the Dream Pill too, right? ”
"Huh? What's what? ”
"Hey...... Do you know? We are all in Chen Zhihe's dreams now. ”
Chuan Mi's eyes widened, "What? Are we in his dreams? ”
Fifth Mu Lin said, "I didn't want you to come. But you also drank the medicine and came in. In this way, the effect of his medicine will shorten the time, so we must hurry. And it's the first time you've entered someone else's dream, and there are some things I want to explain to you as I walk. ”
"Huh? This ......"
The fifth Mulin came to the door, looked outside through the gap, and said, "It's too late, so I can only talk as I go." Let me tell you first of all, in other people's dreams, in everything you encounter, try not to touch and talk to them. As soon as you consciously or unintentionally touch the dreamer's stimulus, they will start to reject you and get you out of their dreams. ”
No wonder, Chuan Mi just now understood a little, there must have been no doubt that kicking that kid just now caused the villagers' disgust.
The fifth Mu Lin said, "Wrong, it's because you have been lying on the wall for too long, and the repulsion generated by the wall, so there will suddenly be an extra child under your feet." ”
Hey? Chuan Mi is so strange, how can he know his inner monologue? Could it be that he can know what he has experienced without seeing it?
The Fifth Mulin continued, "Don't forget this in a dream. Although it is in someone else's dream...... Let's go, talk as you go. ”
Fifth Mulin pushed open the door, then looked at no one, and continued to walk out, and Chuan Mi hurriedly followed. At this time, Chuan Mi felt that the Fifth Wood Forest was really very mysterious, and he seemed to be really capable, and the rumors were not groundless. Following him this time, it is really safe and reassuring.
Fifth Mulin said as he walked outside, "This place is called Chenjia Village, and it is Chen Zhihe's hometown. Fortunately, he is now suffering from a mental illness, which makes his dreams almost the same as reality. ”
Yes, the scene in the dream of the average person is different from the reality, and only a small part can coincide with the reality. Perhaps it is because Chen Zhihe suffers from a special disease that causes his spiritual world to be simple, and the dreams he creates are also close to reality.
It's just that the Fifth Mulin also felt it, and through the environment of this dream, it seems that this incident has a deep imprint on Chen Zhihe.
Fifth Mu Lin continued to walk and said, "This incident had a great impact on Chen Zhihe, and it was also because of this incident that he walked out of the mountains, came to Bushi, and was admitted to Bu University to study. ”
…………
Chen Zhihe comes from a place called Chenjia Village in the depths of the mountains, which is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and there are still more than 100 kilometers of mountain roads from the county seat. It can be said that it is almost isolated from the rest of the world, and the farming village is fortunate to be self-sufficient.
It was because of the old ideas of Chenjiacun that Chen Zhihe wanted to leave this place and come outside to learn the current scientific knowledge. And the incident when Chen Zhihe was a child became the biggest traction line for him to decide to go out of the mountain.
Every village in Chenjia Village is surnamed Chen, and the very small temple in the square at the end of the village is the Chen Family Ancestral Hall they enshrine. After the death of each generation of village chiefs, the next village chief will nominate them to make small bamboo plaques and engrave their names to enshrine there. There are now dozens of small signs, and this place has undergone hundreds of years of changes.
The Chen family tree is buried under the small ancestral hall, as long as it is a birth, coming-of-age ceremony, marriage, or funeral, the dark grid under the small ancestral hall will be activated and the family tree will be taken out. The newly-born person writes several generations in golden font, Chen Moumou. Like an outsider, when he got married, he filled in the name of the other party, annotated it in the form of a daughter-in-law or husband of the Chen family, and covered the red font with gold font. After the couple gave birth to a child, they added new Chen style descendants. After a person dies and is buried, the red font is covered by the black font.
Chen Zhihe was born in Chenjia Village, and his family is still a respected family in Chenjia Village, which is quite prestigious, similar to an elder or something. Chen Zhihe also has an older brother named Chen Zhihai, who is more than ten years older than him.
When Chen Zhihe was very young, his elder brother Chen Zhihai left the village for some other reason to learn modern knowledge outside. When he came back as an adult, he brought back his girlfriend, and his younger brother Chen Zhihe was already in his teens at that time.
Everyone is still more enthusiastic about outsiders, but what they didn't expect was that the girl Chen Zhihai brought back was the object of his marriage. According to family customs, Chen Zhihai had to come back to ask for instructions, inform his parents, the village head, and even ask for a family tree. So he had to take the girl back to Chenjia Village.
When the people in the village found out, it caused a great sensation, because the village chief and several respected Chen family members had already found a girl from Chenjia Village for him. This caused Chen Zhihai's dissatisfaction.
Nowadays, society advocates free love, freedom of human rights, and equality between men and women, but this small mountain village is so closed because of the impassable roads, fortunately, it is walking the things of the old society, and this system should change with the continuation of the new society. Of course, Chen Zhihai, who received the new education, was unwilling, he just respected his parents and elders, and specially went back to the village to explain the matter. I didn't expect things to go so badly.
Of course, several old people and Chen Zhihai's parents were persuading him in the next few days. After a few days, Chen Zhihai and his parents had a big quarrel, there had never been such a thing before, this kid has been out for more than 10 years, and when he comes back, he has completely changed. Talking about how good the outside world is, how harmonious the society is, how the scientific and technological civilization is developed, and the people in the village are confused, and they think that this child has fallen into evil, is it that the girl has cast some magic tricks.
But Chen Zhihe listened to all this and kept it firmly in his heart. How simple and innocent a child in the mountains is, he is like a blank piece of paper, waiting for the social environment and family education to color this blank paper. And what his brother Chen Zhihai said made Chen Zhihe excited and couldn't calm down for a long time.
Chen Zhihe has also been in the village for more than ten years, and he really wants to go out and see what his brother said about the outside world.
In private, Chen Zhihe also asked his brother what the outside world was like. His brother told him that knowledge changes his fate, and if he has the opportunity, he must study hard, be admitted to a university, and have a good job when he comes out. And so on and so forth...... The brothers talked a lot. My brother also gave him the books he had brought back about his studies.
Fortunately, Chen Zhihe also knew a lot of words, so he watched this book with relish for a few days. But the contradictions between Chen Zhihai and his family, as well as the village chief, patriarch, and elders, are also getting bigger and bigger. Several old men have already been made to prepare to remove Chen Zhihai from the family tree.
But after all, Chen Zhihai is from Chenjia Village, and his family's status in Chenjia Village is still relatively high. So Chen Zhihai's family blamed all this on the girl, they first insulted each other mentally, and then physically punched and kicked the girl. The girl couldn't stand it anymore and was ready to leave the village. But this village is isolated from the world, it is easy for outsiders to get lost if they want to leave alone, and there are fierce beasts eating people in the mountains and forests, so she desperately hopes that Chen Zhihai can take her away. She is also willing to leave Chen Zhihai.
Of course Chen Zhihai didn't agree when he found out, he was educated outside, advocating free love, and felt that he and that girl were truly in love. Now the people of the family have forced him again and again, and slowly, he has been greatly stimulated mentally.
