Chapter 2: The Resurrection of the Second White
I heard my grandfather's words a little strange, and I didn't know why he did this.
Erbai is a fool in our village, he is about forty years old, about the same as my father, very tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but his IQ is not very high, because he is the second oldest in the family, so he is called Erbai by the villagers.
According to the villagers, Erbai was not born stupid, but became stupid and stupid after being stimulated, and the stimulation he received seemed to have an inseparable relationship with my family.
But every time the villagers said that they didn't talk about it, no matter how much I asked, they wouldn't say anything, and when I went home and asked my grandfather, he kept silent and told me not to ask too much.
But now, my grandfather wants me to find Erbai, why is this?
I don't know, but I walked out of the house with the little red snake anyway.
Strange to say, this little red snake has been very obedient since he saw my grandfather, and he didn't struggle anymore, but just wrapped himself around my arm and refused to come down.
"Uncle Erbai?"
I came to the courtyard of Erbai's house, but found that the door of Erbai's house was open, which made me a little strange - although Erbai was a little stupid, but what he knew best was that the door was closed after dark, and it was the first time I had seen this kind of situation without closing the door.
"Uncle Erbai? Erbai ...... Yes! Someone! ”
Just as I was looking for Erbai, I suddenly found a person lying on the kang, and when I got closer, I realized that this person was Erbai.
But at this time, Erbai was already out of breath, his eyes were wide, blood was oozing from his facial features, and his mouth was also big, looking very terrifying.
I was taken aback, and ran out of Erbai's house with a roll, shouting as I ran:
"Someone! Help me! Erbai is dead! ”
The originally silent village became lively because of my shouting, and the villagers all ran out of their houses and shouted loudly.
"Who? What are you shouting in the middle of the night? ”
"That's right, I won't let people sleep!"
……
"I didn't shout, Uncle Erbai is really dead, and people are lying on the kang!"
I said to everyone, and when the villagers saw it, I also knew that I wouldn't talk nonsense, so they all came out of the house and ran towards Erbai's house.
"What's going on?"
Grandpa came to my side first, took my arm and whispered.
"I don't know, I went to Erbai's house and found that the door was not closed, so I went in, and it turned out that Erbai was lying on the kang bleeding and out of breath!"
I briefly recounted the incident, but I didn't expect my grandfather's face to change suddenly.
"Where's the Red Snake?"
When I heard my grandfather ask, I hurriedly pulled my sleeve up.
"It's been here all the time!"
Grandpa saw the red snake and hurriedly put down his sleeves for me.
"Be sure to protect this snake, it will be of great use in the future!"
I heard my grandfather say this, nodded hurriedly, and fastened the buttons on my sleeves.
"Let's go, let's go to Erbai's house and have a look."
Grandpa took me to Erbai's house, and when we arrived, it was already full of villagers, and everyone was talking and pointing at Erbai on the kang.
Grandpa catches snakes in the mountains all the year round, and he also has a lot of research on herbal medicine, and people in the village will ask grandpa to find medicine to eat if they have a headache and brain fever; So as soon as the villagers saw their grandfather coming, they all stepped aside to make way for him.
Grandpa walked to the side of the kang, gently raised Erbai's head, and stared at Erbai's eyes for a while before standing up.
"Erbai is dead, but I don't know what the specific situation is."
Grandpa said to the village chief:
"Village chief, Erbai has no family, or you can watch it!"
The village chief didn't want to care about these things in the first place, but when he heard his grandfather say this, he nodded hurriedly.
"That's okay, according to the rules of the village, buy a coffin overnight, and find a few young people to carry it to the mountain early tomorrow morning and bury it."
The village chief made a decision very happily, and everyone agreed when they heard the village chief say this, and they waited for Erbai to be buried tomorrow morning.
After the decision was made, the crowd dispersed, and my grandfather and I returned home.
"Grandpa, I always feel that Erbai's death is wrong."
I held back all the way, and I said to my grandfather when I got home.
"Although Erbai is stupid, he hasn't been hungry for so many years, and his health has always been very good, how could he suddenly die? And it's still this way of dying? ”
I told my grandfather all my doubts, but he was a little absent-minded, didn't listen to me at all, just sat on the chair and clicked the cigarette pouch.
"Ghost needle, do you know why Erbai became like this?"
Grandpa asked suddenly.
I subconsciously shook my head, my heart full of curiosity.
"It was one night twenty years ago, I went to the mountains to catch snakes, it was a big python, just when I was entangled with the big python, Erbai suddenly appeared, he took the big python away when I was tired, I didn't catch up with him."
Grandpa half-squinted his eyes whispered about the events of that year, as if he was recalling a dream he had last night.
"Since then, Erbai has disappeared, and Erbai didn't come back until three months later, but Erbai was already stupid and stupid at that time, and no one knew what happened to Erbai."
Speaking of which, Grandpa stopped, and I was even more weird.
"Grandpa, haven't you investigated this matter?"
I asked, but my grandfather suddenly opened his eyes.
"Of course I investigated! That python is my mission, and I will definitely track it down if the mission is lost! ”
"But no matter how much I try to track it down, there is no news of the serpent; And after that, I also asked our python fairy, but the python fairy only said that there would be a catastrophe in the future, and the rest did not say. I didn't expect that the Great Tribulation of Erbai would be at this time! ”
Grandpa was a little excited when he said this, but after the excitement, Grandpa was more powerless, leaning on the back of the chair weakly.
"I originally wanted you to show Erbai the red snake today to see if he could be more sober, but who would have thought that it would be like this, what a fate!"
Grandpa said a little sadly:
"Wake up, you can rest early, early tomorrow morning, let's go to Erbai's funeral to have a look."
Grandpa urged me to rest, but I knew that my grandfather was worried that something would go wrong with Erbai's funeral, so he wanted to go and see it.
I went back to my room and tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, but at this time, the little red snake that had been coiled around my arm suddenly crawled to my side, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
I was speechless, and my heart said that this beast has such a big heart, and it can still sleep when there are dead people over there! But on the other hand, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with it!
I lay on the bed in a daze, I don't know if I fell asleep or not, I just felt that there was a woman in red clothes lying next to me in a trance, but when I opened my eyes, there was no woman at all, only the little red snake.
"Damn it!"
I cursed, then reached for a look at my phone.
It's already past three o'clock, and if it is placed in normal times, this is definitely not the time for me to get up, but Erbai is buried today, and he will leave at four o'clock, so I definitely can't sleep anymore, so I turned over and got up and got dressed and walked out of the room.
Grandpa was ready and went out with me when he saw that I had packed up.
The two of us didn't go to Erbai's house, but went to the mountain first.
That barren mountain is a mass grave in our village, and the young people of the village will carry the coffin up later.
Not long after, a group of people went up the hill beating gongs and drums, led by the village chief, followed by four young and strong young men carrying coffins.
"Alright, that's it!"
When the village chief saw his grandfather, he motioned for everyone to bury Erbai here, and then beckoned everyone to dig a pit.
I don't know why, halfway through the digging of the pit, it suddenly rained in the sky, and it was not small, not only drenching everyone into soup chickens, but also flooding the soil pit that was already almost dug.
"Okay, okay, let's stop digging a pit first, let's find a place to hide from the rain first!"
Just as everyone was discussing where to hide from the rain, there was a sudden noise from Erbai's coffin.
"Boom...... Boom! ”
With a loud bang, Erbai's coffin suddenly broke a big hole!
"Deceived corpses! Cheated corpse! Run! Come on! ”
Everyone was in a state of confusion, and I was a little surprised, and hurried in front of my grandfather.
This scene is really weird, a mass grave is raining, and suddenly the coffin in front of you is broken, which no one can accept!
But at this moment, a man suddenly came out of the coffin.
"I ...... Not...... Dead ......"
